Drake_Mallard 164 Report post Posted December 1, 2020 Wrestling is full of guys who compete and then go directly to coaching. It seems like there are very few who dont go that route. Who are some that didn't, but would have been great coaches had they stayed in the sport. I say Mark Ironside. Blue collar, good communicator, business owner, very consistent in everything he does. I think he would have been a top coach today had he chose to do so. 2 AHamilton and headache reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TripNSweep 479 Report post Posted December 1, 2020 I think Stephen Neal would have been a great coach. He could wrestle well for a heavyweight and understood a lot of nuances that come with wrestling. Plus he's a friendly guy who can relate to a lot of people. 5 ConnorsDad, nhs67, CoachWrestling and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not only could he wrestle well for a heavyweight, he wrestled well enough to be FILA Wrestler of the Year in 1999. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
