Hi all, there is only one pro-wrestler that I know of that has good real wrestling credentials and that is Kurt Angle (Gold at 1995 world games in the 96 kg weight division, and gold at 1996 olympic games in the 96 kg weight division).

So besides Kurt Angle, which pro-wrestlers have also had success in collegiate wrestling, or international wrestling (i.e., olympic or world games)?

Brock Lesnar, Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas were All Americans.

Lashley also had success in the military(don't remember what the name of what he won)

Mark Henry has won the World Strongest Man comnpetition.

I dont remember anybody else

I thought Mark Henry was only in the Strongest Man Competition. I didn't know he won...
