Ehh.. I train & roll with guys who were wrestlers in HS or college & some of those knee braces they wear are not because of protection. Some have had knee problems due to injuries sustained in the past. I know a former wrestler who I train with once mentioned that back in HS he injured his knee because it got bent in a competition.

For some yeah, but a lot of highschool sports can damage your knees- including wrestling. The generalization of "if you have knee problems under 40, you're inactive" is pretty foolish.
