>>18369343This is the correct answer, but possibly not for the right reasons. I'm curious as to whether wrestling is seen as the best because it's the most effective due to the fact that the best athletes go into wrestling whereas nerds do jiu jitsu. Also, most people learn wrestling in late grade school or high school and do it for years. It's surrounded by a culture of making weight, eating on a diet, and training. I think if you take some guy in his 20's and 30's and attempt to make him a wrestler you'd have a harder time than if you just stuck him in a judo or muay thai class schedule. That being said, wrestling is the best martial art.
