Jax Forrest on His Longest Time Off the Mat Since Age 7 | 440

Jax Forrest returns to the show after one of the wildest years in wrestling. He went from US Open champ to the Senior and U23 World Teams, left Bishop McCort early for Stillwater, and won an NCAA title as an undefeated true freshman. Jax opens up about skipping U23 Worlds, leaning into his faith, the stacked 133 lb field, Penn State vs. Oklahoma State, the Cowboys' wrestle-offs and launching his own shoe.SHOW TIMESTAMPS:0:00 - Jax Returns to the Show02:15 - Getting Back on the Mat03:15 - Not Competing at U23 Worlds05:00 - World Championships Experiences06:20 - Heading to Stillwater Early11:00 - Leaning into His Faith13:00 - 133 lb Weight Class Being Stacked16:00 - True Freshman National Champ19:40 - Perspective on This Season & Teammates22:50 - Penn State & The Team Race25:50 - The Oklahoma State Wrestle-offs27:30 - Juggling Off the Mat Responsibilities29:05 - Creating a Shoe33:45 - Rapid Fire QuestionsJAX'S SHOE: Preorder now!Be sure to SUBSCRIBE to the podcast.
