My vote for the next Olympic event: Ass Scratching. I can compete at an Olympic level in that event! And here in Michigan, Olympic training was a long term safe harbor for a serial child molester. So there is that.

It was supposed to be stopped for 2020, but they reversed course and did not drop wrestling. Agree with you, it is one of the most Olympic sports of them all.
