Wrestling's Biggest Mystery: Nick Suriano 

I don’t know why he looked at the clock. Bad things happen at bad times. This guy is a monster.

Suriano is one of those guys who might be slightly insane, but also has the mentality to potentially be truly, truly great. He's a different kind of dude.

Suriano out here talking like he’s telling ghost stories.

He's sweating profusely throughout this interview. He's an absolute lunatic and I love it!!!

"expose myself to people that are better than me" Nick suriano ... this is a champion

He talks like has seen something that he can’t tell us. Love the attitude and the quest for knowledge.

"Whoever it is , whatever medal or accolade they have, they're gonna learn a hard lesson about themselves, it's just that simple, I-i will win." I fucking love this kid. God bless you Nick

His confidence is scary.

This man is the true definition of the word passion. His intelligence, discipline, and drive is crazy.

I'm almost 50yrs old and this just gave me even more fuel to keep training hard. Not because of olympic dreams or anything at his level. Just because I CAN.

trained with him before complete weirdo but 100% absolute athlete and work ethic is insane. Much props

He’s already beaten them all in his head. Mad respect ✊ to a guy who understands that you have to find out who YOU are first, in the deepest way by exposing your weaknesses in order to truly become fearless. Skills can be matched, but mental toughness and the ability to harness that are the real secret. He gets that. Very few do. Much respect ✊

Thing about wrestlers is the lack of punching to the head makes them so much more articulate.

How can you not love this kid and how he carry's himself ?

Infectious attitude. After watching that I felt like I wanna win too. lol. best of luck Nick!

This dude is unironically on the sigma grindset. What a beast.

I do not know SQUAT bout wrestling but THAT was a good watch. Kudos to the content creators. He (Nick) is a damn interesting subject. Best to him.

Suriano has been internally driven since birth. We used to say he popped out wearing headgear. He was winning tough at 6 years old. His parents were amazingly supportive. He started private lessons with Damian Logan at a young age and continued with him for years. But Nick brought the foundation from the beginning that his coaches and parents were able to build on. And he is a true student of the game. Driven really doesn’t even come close to describing his attitude. He’s never one for small talk. Mostly all business. My son grew up and wrestled in north jersey so was in the same room with Nick on and off. Unfortunate it didn’t work out with Cael (I don’t know the story - none of my business really) but obviously it worked out at Rutgers.

He’s got a look in his eyes like he’s about his shit , few athletes have that look about them.

Seems like bro did shrooms and wanted more out of life lol

He is a type A personality beyond most could ever understand. A true champion

Watching this makes me want to become who I want even more

Started shadow wrestling after this

Can't imagine training for something for your whole life, shifting your wrestling style, have the event pushed back, then miss the trials because you're positive for covid. Especially when you know if you compete, you'll win. 2024 for Nick Suriano.

went to highschool with Nick. swear to God this is a true story, first day of high school literally the first day where it’s not even class and you just meet your teachers. We’re in math class like 10:30 in the morning he’s one row in front of me. He pushes his chair back when the teacher turns around and starts doing dips on the table, banged out like 25 on the spot

That was the most intense wrestling documentary video I've ever seen.

Great documentary. This kid has a great attitude.

I think the most impressive part of this, is the fact that he was so confident to follow his vision. Dont get me wrong, everything he does is impressive, but the fact that I am sure he had multiple mentors telling him what his path should be, yet he went "seeking" HIS vision. That is TRUE greatness.

Thanks for taking me back about 45 years ago when I was a HS wrestler. My father was from Europe, so never brought up with football, basketball, baseball, etc, but liked the idea of one-on-one wrestling some other dude. Did well enough that I varsity lettered in my freshman year and had a blast in tournaments. Thanks for the memories.

Chills is all I feel, you can tell he means everything he says. This guy is no joke

This guy is the Alex Honnold of wrestling - laser focus, same drive, same exceptionalism, even same style of speaking and mannerisms.

This man is on a vision quest, his power levels are going to go over 9k.

This reminds of the first time I saw a pack of greyhounds running. Getting to see something or someone do the thing they were born to do is a thing of beauty. Best of luck to this man and his journey.

Haven't worked out in 3 weeks, saw this video and it reignited my motivation to keep going. I just got up and emptied my tank and went as hard as I could and it felt GREAT. Why did I ever stop exercising lol, it feels so good being tired af, sweaty, hot and blood pumped. I feel alive!

"I have to expose myself to people that are better than me" I love that quote. You could take that and apply that to anything in life

This kid is Jersey tough . Straight savage.

Dude is mature beyond his years

Im from England, Wrestling is pretty much non existent as a spectator sport over here. I have never watched wresting or ever really been exposed to it. I have to say, these two short docs on Suriano are brilliant. The kid is fascinating, his mindset resonates with me a lot, he is very competitive but also clearly very free and creative. Ive enjoy them so much that it sparked an interest in wresting in general, now I know a few more names, a few legends of the sport etc and am hoping to start watching as a fan. The fact is every great thing is built on a story. Sell someone a story and you can sell them anything. Telling the stories of these young men only propels the sport forward, it makes it more personal. I will be following Nicks final year at Michigan and hopefully through this I can gain an understanding of the sport and follow it in a deeper and more consistent way Thanks Flo, this was great. Please do more, im sure there are many more young men with a lot to say and a story to tell. I think US Wrestling just gained another fan from across the pond God bless

I've played game near every sport growing up as a kid but when I got involved in wrestling in my preteens and all throughout high school and college it changes your life like nothing else. The amount of self-reflection self-confidence and self-awareness you have to have to be an elite wrestler people can't even imagine. I was never on this type of level probably not even close on my best day but I was a decent division too college wrestler and I can tell you this it was the best time of my life. Nobody is mentally tougher than a wrestler

They made a good point at the end of the video. NIL has made so many college athletes more valuable in college than they will be post college. Nick at the same weight class as Spencer Lee would truly be a blockbuster and maybe the best matchup in college since Dake vs. Taylor.

My man kind of reminds me of a cross between Uriah Faber and Beavis, and I love everything about that.

This kid is super intelligent. You can tell from his demeanor and attitude and the words he chooses. Godspeed. I think he will have an amazing career.

Bring it to the UFC brother we would love to See you "DOMINATE!"

Always just love this kid. He’s raw and unapologetic. He’s himself. Strong, fast, tough. Everything you want

Badass!! Nick is a Stud!! Love his work ethic & his Drive to be the Best in the World!! Hope he comes back for another NCAA Run!!!

This dude is like growing fire, you can feel the intensity just listening to him.

Man.. He just leveled up so much by seeking his own path! Willing to learn and improve without being ask as a young man, that speaks a lot of volume.

So disappointed when he said he was leaving Rutgers 😢 he was the first NCAA champ for our school

"It was dark and cold in Russia." The filter certainly helps.

Man that was a captivating piece, I will definitely be paying attention to how his journey pans out

This is a documentary of an amazing wrestler but it's so much deeper than that with this man.

Excited to see Nick wrestle again.

Being willing to train anywhere says a lot about wanting to perfect your craft

Love the confidence this young man exudes and u can tell he has tremendous heart and a great hungry attitude!!

Wanted the video to go on for another couple of hours. Dig his attitude and hope exciting things are in store for him and us!

You guys crushed this!

That’s a very impressive young man. Not a big wrestling person but I’m sure glad I watched this. I don’t find him to be arrogant one bit, he has the right amount of confidence that he should have. He even made me see competition in a spiritual way. Impressive

He'd be an dominating factor with his wrestling in MMA

Very very inspirational, light and blessings go out to Nick and his family

He's honing his skills but most importantly mastering himself...The journey on becoming a Legend!

Nicky Suriano is the type of guy to have me in my stance at work, working on set ups after watching this one!

Very inspiring. Great attitude kid, you go far in life and never stop.

Suriani is on his vision quest. The confidence he has is priceless and real.

He's the best I have ever seen in last 45 years of watching and paying attention to wrestling. Hands down the Best Ever

What a great documentary... Why there are thumbs down is beyond me... crazy, whether you like Suriano or not.

I miss wrestling so much. It's really a sport u have to love. There's no money or fame u have to be a little crazy to be great. I remember running before school trying to make weight there's a feeling of a one on one victory that's hard to compare.

im watching this for the third time sitting in a rehab for drugs and alcohol after i fucked up my life during covid and stopped competing in muay thai this man just gave me so much motivation to get back in and train harder

I admire his drive. It's hard finding motivation but he seems passionate about wrestling.

i LOVE this kid. true inspiration.

This guy is a straight psychopath and I love it!

This kids self confidence and drive is next level. Respect!

Amazing young man .. There are some predators you have not experienced, and i have yet to hear you speak of monsters. Continue your journey you are on the right path.

God he is the man. He’s literally just the man . So hard to describe I love this kid

As a Brit, we don’t do wrestling, most brits think of wrestling as WWE, but Nick Suriano got me into the sport of wrestling, my kids also watch Nick, great wrestler, one hell of a human

This was epic! I don’t follow wrestling but had goosebumps!

These flo docs or whatever you wanna call it are amazing telling story and letting the guys tell their own

This guy here is a winner and a Champion. I don't even watch wrestling but I stayed for this. He's going places

I like him. Confidence in his abilities but also seems quite teachable and willing to learn.

What a great video! Is it wrestling season yet!!??

Maniacally confident. Arrogant. Possibly self destructive. Wildly talented and hard working. Most athletes can work hard though. After all they are working for their own personal glory.

This kid is deep. Keep up with this one. More documentaries please

No idea about wrestling but I loved this video. Love this young man's attitude trying to better himself. Best to him for the future 💪👍🙂

3:22 Ref pushes his arm like he’s pushed that Colon lost 😂 good!

This is so good. Thumbs up.

Gotta believe you’re the best in order to be the best. Champions know that.

I’m a basketball guy never got into wrestling until I came across bro I see pure mamba mentality kobe had that same type of ultra confidence you can’t fake it, the amount of work he put in I can’t imagine.

I honestly think men, such as Nick have the ability to call on and off adrenaline doses as needed. Scary human. I like him. Everything. #salute

A true testament to the equal power of the mind matching or even exceeding that of the body. This man is the highest definition of a warrior.

Nick is one of the kind. Very talented and I believe (with out know him personally) he’s emotional indeed personal. With the right coaching he can be great 🥇 for the next 8yrs

Same thing happened to a small wrestler in tn! Kid in 2007 placed in nationals but was a partying beast! Never liked sports but his family was like huge athletes but the guy was a free sprite I recall him wrestling 171, 189, 215 his senior year while looking like he could cut to 151.

I love Suriano. Always believed in him since his first jersey title. He has an intense and focus that cannot be matched. Don't believe anyone can sustain the pressure.

Nick (no soul) Siriano. Looks cold as ice, no emotion, pure savage. I'm a fan.

10:45 is a great moment. The sky is the limit for that type of mindset paired with appropriate action.

Little brute. Love it. Glad he's on our team.

I would like to see this guy on the UFC roster one day.

There's only one Nick Suriano!

Will this dude is on a championship vision quest…and I for one look forward to seeing him achieve his goals.

“Eastbrook middle school meet me a 2:30” Paramus kid tough as nails

I wonder if we would ever see him in MMA? I know not all wrestlers transition into that field but he seems to have a great mindset and work ethic and I think he could be successful if he did 🤷‍♂️.

He has that thing you look for in an athlete. It comes once in a lifetime. That special talent that’s beyond talent. It’s that thing nobody else has. And guess what he knows it and he keeps driving.
