Is it true Jesus was a wrestler in his early years?

.


Four years ago I was listening to a radio program on the Phil Hendrie show, it was a wrestling match between Jesus and the entire cast of My Big Fat Greek Wedding.





Jesus won in the third round.





I didn't even know he was a wrestler. Then I got to thinking, this may not even be legit. You know how these things are. Especially wrestling.





Do any of you people know if Jesus was a wrestler in his early years, maybe not in the Bible but in other sources?


.Is it true Jesus was a wrestler in his early years?
this isn't funny.Is it true Jesus was a wrestler in his early years?
actually during mideval times, the term ';wrestling'; referred to all manner of unarmed fighting.





greek wrestling, pankration, was very similar in that it also included striking and grappling in a system of unarmed combat.





given that much of roman culture is taken and built on greek culture, AND that jesus was in fact claimed to have existed in the province of judea (a roman run colony) during the period of his alleged existance,





it is rationally possible that:





1- IF jesus existed, and





2- IF jesus learned to fight,





then it would be rational given that the term 'WRESTLING'; was used for unarmed combat at the time not just the grappling martial art we know it as today, that:





3- then, jesus was a wrestler.








however, there are no real other sources that mention any detail about jesus, much less that he studied any form of martial arts whether armed or unarmed-





the other mentions of jesus, (questionably) tend to indicate only his existance, not detailed claims about his life/history.
No, to my knowledge Jesus was not a wrestler. Wrestling involves violence and someone losing most of the time. Jesus represented the total opposite of that. He is of peace and He wants everyone to be a winner. If He was a wrestler He wouldn't have purposely allowed man-kind to beat Him and kill Him so that we can have salvation.
Phil Hendrie is one of America's greatest journalists who has interviewed nearly everyone of any consequence including some who are regulars right here on R%26amp;S. I can't mention any names because I am pledged to protect their anonymity but if you heard Jesus on the show I can pretty well guarantee that it was him although it might have been Jesus Garcia, the well know Mexican Lucha Libre wrestler.
Do you mean Jesus as in Heysus? The way Spanish speakers pronounce the name?





Jesus of Nazreth drove the money-changers and mechants out of the temple with a whip, and he suffered and died a horribly painful death to pay the price for your sin. He will return and every eye shall see him, only this time he will come not as a sacrifice, but as King of Kings. Are you ready to give account of your life?
He started to QQ, so he thought up the religion of Christianity, because he sucked at wrestling, in hopes everyone would stop wrestling too.
Back in those days, the dudes wrestled nekkid. So put THAT in your pipe and smoke it!





Puts a whole new spin on that whole '12 Disciples' idea, doesn't it?
He was a wrestler for years, but gave it up when the dyes from the Jello made his hair look too funny when he went to his day job as a prophet.
Yeah, he fort in Via Dolorosa where he dragged his cross to Calvary.
Let's see, long hair and a beard could make him an outlaw biker !
Yes, during the ';missing years';
No, He was a Kung Fu fighter.
Stop His name is HOLY.
IDK
I haven't heard that.

hahaha what the hell????

Jesus's dress would keep getting hung up in his sandals.
