Sure it looks like another match were 3 of the four dont belong in the ring. The kid is only slightly less qualified then the two Irish fools.

wow what an overblown reaction. Just watched the match and all the kid did was stand on the apron then put an armbar on a knocked out opponent. Where is the problem? Where is the danger? I mean I could see if the kid took heat or got the hot tag. But he didnt do anything. It's gimmicky as all hell and but be honest the 7yr old had a better look than his opponents. That is less dangerous than if the kid was playing wrestling with his friends. Or for that matter being involved in a school sports team. Shoot if it was my son I would have him busting out armdrags, hurricanranas, and possibly even a dive and then take some heat. I would also put him over or maybe have him turn heel on me. I would make sure the guys working with my boy could work. Because it's play fighting your not supposed to really hurt the person. I could realistically put heat on my 3yr old daughter and not hurt her one bit. Of course I wouldn't use her. Not because she is three but because she would just fighting spirit everything and not put me over. www.youtube.com/watch?v=duSsTE-10e0

I'll say it again, just because some Japanese fed did it doesn't mean it's a good idea.

Once again I'm not saying throw a kid in there in a strong style match. But I've taken harder shots from my kids then most of the southern workers I've worked with and thats not a knock at all infact its a compliment. because how they work down south extremely lite. Did you watch the match crimey? at what point of that match was the kid placed in danger. was it when he stayed on the apron and his partner was nowhere near him, or the point when he finally got in the ring and lightly sat down and put the guy into an armbar. Maybe I'm weird but I see no problem if the kids are trained. I mean is there really a difference between that and Football, basketball, Hockey, amateur wrestling, martial arts sparing? Everyone on this board has wrestled on a mattress or trampoline with your friends. At least he wrestled without a shirt. And I'd bet money that his Bench press to bodyweight ratio is better than the other guys in the match with him. I just think you're making a big deal out of something that wasn't.

So I guess what your saying is let kids do Pro Wrestling at any age. Great Idea, hey while were at it lets have kids do MMA fighting, lets legalize Alcohol to any age, lets have them talk back at us with Foul language, and maybe if we got time will let them gamble.

Great Idea, hey while were at it lets have kids do MMA fighting, lets legalize Alcohol to any age, lets have them talk back at us with Foul language, and maybe if we got time will let them gamble. Can you stay on subject please instead of just spouting completely ignorant unrelated claims. But just so you know they've been training kids in martials arts for centuries. And not that bs american tkd crap where you basically pay for your belt. Real legitimate kill your opponent martial arts. And fyi they do have childrens mma meets and they're sanctioned like amateur wrestling meets. And I do think the drinking age should be lowered to 18. If you're old enough to die for your country then you're old enough to drink. That is what I believe. And it seems like parents now days are already fine with letting their kids swear and talk back to them. because they'd rather be friends than parents to their kids. And I guess you've never bet anybody anything your whole entire adolestant life. Whether it be a coke or the last piece of pizza. Guess what, that is gambling. Yet none of your statements have anything to do with wrestling or present a logical counterpoint to my statements. Try to stay on the subject instead of jumping to left field on me ok. All I am saying is under the proper supervision and with right training how is pro wrestling any different than any other sport or activity. My daughter is in gymnastics and the things that those little girls do and try would scare the hell out of me. Or my son who is starting in amatuer wrestling this month where they're legitimately trying to impose their will on each other. Those worry me alot more than pro wrestling. All I'm saying is that if you can start gymnastics at 18 months old, martial arts at 5yrs old, Boxing at 6, Tackle Football at 7, Fastpitch Baseball at 8. Why is there such a double standard. It's like if some guy was playing tackle football with his 7yr old nobody would say anything. Because they know he would take precautions. And that is all I'm saying you'd take precautions. You wouldn't use the same amount of force on a 7yr old as if he was 23. I'm not saying you should have a child on your roster but I see no problem with one training or using one in a gimmicky style match like tag match was. Since pro wrestling is just glorified horseplay anyway.

There is only one thing I agree with you and that is taking precautions on sports activity's. But I disagree with you on the age restrictions on pro wrestling. I don't think it is anywhat a great idea for kids as low as 7 run around the ring even properly trained or not.
I'm not a wrestler, I did try out to be a wrestler in a professional ring by a professional trainer. After a few class sessions I decided this wasn't for me. Even though I enjoy watching it. So I don't know everything, but I do know how much pain wrestlers go threw. And I have a 7 year old son and he also wants to do pro wrestling. So my first words to him was "not until your 18."
Another note, I have no problem having kids doing boxing or kung fu. But to have kids get in a Octagon and fight like UFC fighters, well that's as worse as geting kids train in the wrestling ring.

No child should be in the ring hell there are some people that are adult that should never be allowed in a ring. But just like women I will treat them as a man in that ring. So if a child was to step in the ring with me "Since pro wrestling is just glorified horseplay anyway" he will learn how glorified it really is.
