A short while later the wrestler (witness) was in checking his weight and the same wrestler comes into the room and is still very upset. He punches himself in the face and another wrestler in the room says "Dude, did you just punch yourself in the face? That was awesome."

The wrestler that told me the story said that he thought the other wrestler had some anger management problems. Here are my observations from this event:

1) Head butting your opponent when things are going your way is unacceptable (BAD).

2) Dropping the f bomb university on your coach should get you a one way ticket to the basketball floor (BAD).

3) Beating yourself up instead of your opponent after a loss is not against the rules (GOOD).



Probably a good reason I wasn't very competitive, My old man once said I had the coordination of a donkey on roller skates. So I am sure he would make a remark that I couldn't even win against myself or something to that nature.
