If you are reading this then it means that you have made the difficult choice of wanting to be a wrestling mat maid. Being a wrestling mat maid can be both amazing, exciting, and disgusting.

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts.” -Winston Churchill. I am a wrestler, and love it. My dad was an amazing wrestler when he was in high school, and now I’m trying to work my way up to that. He was a conference champion and went to different countries to wrestle; that says how good I want to be.
