Exactly How Special is This Era of Wrestling?

[dclark145 16]

Compared to older eras of wrestling that most of you have lived through and witnessed, or possibly been a part of yourself, exactly how special is the current era? Maybe its due to my ignorance of youth, but it seems that the level of wrestling is at an all-time high, despite the whole IOC decision and such.

 

Technique is top-notch and growing every day, high school wrestlers are continuously showing that they can compete at the next level, college wrestling is gaining more and more parity across the whole NCAA (not just Division I), more programs are being made than lost, the showcase events.. so on and so forth.
