"One Knuckle. One Legacy."
THE OFFICIAL HOMEPAGE OF JOE WETRICH — PROFESSIONAL THUMB WRESTLER
Joe Wetrich didn't choose the thumb wrestling life. The thumb wrestling life choose him, in a parking lot, on a Tuesday, against a man who is no longer spoken of.
Since that fateful day, Joe has dedicated himself fully to the discipline, the strategy, and the raw knuckle power of competitive thumb wrestling. He trains every day. Some say twice a day. Nobody has actually seen him train, but the results speak for themselves.
Off the mat (desk), Joe is known for his humility, his unshakable focus, and his refusal to discuss "the incident" at the 2019 regional semifinal.
