High School athletes recruited for underground wrestling

I’ve never heard of this – but in talking with some other people, they did not seem surprised. We were recently notified from the local high school that a person via facebook is inviting athletes to wrestle for money at local hotels.

I did an internet search with underground wrestling – didn’t find anything. I then used the name being used in facebook and only found one occurance that applied. It was a forum for local state wrestling – it gave the same details as the local high school – one response actually had received an invitation – “would you be interested in wrestling in underground club matches for money? All styles you get paid to tryout win or lose more if you win..”

Anyone ever hear of this? Another person posted this has been going on for years and actually knew some boys who participated and got paid a couple of hundred dollars an event – it occurred in a hotel conference room where spectators watch and bet on them.
