Funny, I posted this same video was posted on this forum a few months back but the YouTube video and my post had a different title. Because of this, there wasn't any controversy over the kid just simply being better than others.
Here's the link to that thread:

He looked like a mini-Matt with those slams.  I wonder what Matt would look like with a mohawk?

Then again, I don't want to get in trouble with the management.

A lot of kids he was wrestling probably had little to no wrestling experience. I guess I don't see what's impressive about a little phenom who's obviously been well coached from a very early age thrashing little kids who are just learning the sport.
I would enjoy watching him in High School or college though. I'm sure he's got a very good future ahead of him.

Amazing what a title can do! And we've been on this forum talking about the Liberal media doing the exact same thing. Hypocrites!!!
