Many of the biggest names in the business started reasonably early; it's a young person's game, after all. The bounciness of a twenty-something's physique and mentality go a long way towards staving off the damage a career in wrestling can threaten to do. But its the stars who trained to wrestle as kids, debuted in front of crowds as teenagers, and went on to become some of the best wrestlers in the world that this article is concerned with. Its the kind of fired-up obsession that sees children working their asses off in the ring while still at school; the kind of dreams that push teenage tearaways to focus, stay out of trouble and achieve astonishing things. Everyone in this article pursued those dreams from a young age and eventually became the superstar wrestler that they always wanted to be. These are the youngest old timers on the roster; grizzled, battle-scarred veterans before they were old enough to drink; brilliant workers, the lot, the best teenage wrestlers in the business.
