Okay, so I saw this question floating around the internet: “Is Jason Momoa a wrestler?” I got curious, so I decided to dig in and see what I could find. It’s kind of a fun question, right?
First, I hit up Google. You know, the usual. I just typed in “Jason Momoa wrestling” and a bunch of stuff popped up. Mostly articles and some forum discussions. I skimmed through a few, but nothing really gave me a solid answer. It was all just people talking about his physique and how he’d probably be a good wrestler because he’s so big and strong. But that’s not really proof, is it?
Next, I checked out his Wikipedia page. I figured if he had any wrestling experience, it would be listed there. I scrolled through his early life, acting career, everything. Lots of cool stuff about him being in Aquaman and Game of Thrones, but no mention of wrestling. Nada.
Then I thought, maybe he did some wrestling in high school or college? So, I searched for “Jason Momoa high school sports” and “Jason Momoa college sports.” I found out he was born in Hawaii and then moved to Iowa for a while. I even dug into the sports programs of the high schools he supposedly attended, just in case. Still nothing.
I even looked up some interviews he’s done, hoping he might have mentioned something about wrestling in passing. I watched a few on YouTube and read some transcripts. He talks about surfing, rock climbing, and all sorts of other physical activities. But wrestling? Nope.
- Searched Google using various keywords.
- Checked Wikipedia for any mention of wrestling.
- Investigated his high school and college sports background.
- Watched and read interviews for any clues.
- Looked at any movie roles that are connected to wrestling.
Here’s What I Did:
After all this searching, my conclusion is pretty simple: there’s no evidence that Jason Momoa has ever been a wrestler. He’s a big, athletic guy, for sure. And maybe he’s wrestled around with friends for fun, who knows? But as far as any formal training or competition, it looks like the answer is no. He’s just a really fit actor who plays tough characters. He had played Conan the Barbarian in the movie, but that’s about it for any roles related to wrestling. Case closed, I guess!
