Frost, you got that right. That's the point I was trying to make. Without competition events of its own catch wrestling no longer exists as a sport.

Catch only exists in the same way some of the old Japanese JuJutsu styles, as a historical recreation rather than an active style. It will never catch on again as a sport because submission grappling without pins has replaced it. It wasn't even an evolution as submission grappling grew out of the no-gi BJJ movement.

But, if Victor wants to think he's a catch wrestler I guess he can.
