MAT CLASH WRESTLING X WRESTLING MINDSET
Coach Z Joins the MAT CLASH Universe
WRESTLING MINDSET has entered the MAT CLASH Universe!
Meet Coach Z, inspired by Gene Zannetti — the founder of Wrestling Mindset and one of the most influential mental coaches in the sport. Known for building champions from the inside out, Coach Z brings a new dimension to the MAT CLASH Universe — the mental edge.
In a universe full of strength, skill, and storylines… he reminds every athlete:
“You don’t win on the mat until you win in your mind.”
🃏 Did You Know?
Each wave of MAT CLASH comes with Specialty Cards that are short-print exclusives — only available in that wave! Once a wave is gone, those cards are gone too, making them some of the rarest and most collectible pieces in the MAT CLASH universe.
Wave 1 Exclusives
- FEET TO BACK! (+7): Hit the ultimate throw from neutral for 7 points — or score a pin if your opponent can’t defend.
- COMEBACK! (Tie the Match): No matter the deficit, this card instantly ties the score and flips momentum in your favor.
Wave 2 Exclusives
- CUT ’EM (-1): Skip your opponent’s transition after a takedown and set up another shot.
- SCRAMBLE (+5): Play directly after your opponent uses a +3 Takedown to steal their takedown points and add a +2 Near Fall — swinging momentum with a total of 5 points and control on top.
- CLONE (Shadow Variant): Play this to steal your opponent’s neutral attack. Whether it’s a +3 Takedown or a +7 Feet-to-Back, the CLONE card lets you copy their move, take the points, and flip the position in your favor.
🔒 Short Print Alert: These Specialty Cards are never reprinted in later waves. That means each wave holds its own unique treasures for collectors and competitors alike.
👉 Collect them. Play them. Own a piece of MAT CLASH history.
HE HAS ARRIVED!
Shadow made his first appearance in Wave 2 on the specialty 'Clone' card—a grappler unlike any Earth has seen. Born on a distant planet where combat is sacred, Shadow was sent to Earth to adapt, evolve, and dominate.
With the power of Replikon, he studies opponents by cloning their style—beating them before they ever touch the mat.

Mat Beast (MB) – The Original Mat Clash Icon
Before there was a universe, there was Mat Beast. The very first character to step onto the Mat Clash stage, MB set the tone for everything that came after. Relentless. Explosive. Built for the spotlight.
MB has battled his way through both Wave 1 and Wave 2, becoming the face of the franchise and a measuring stick for every competitor that followed. His legend only grows with time, and fans know when MB shows up—it’s going to be a clash worth remembering.
His origin story comes to life in Mat Clash Origins: Volume 1, where you’ll see the fire that forged him and the path that made him the beast. From humble beginnings to mat-shaking moments, MB’s journey is the foundation of the entire Mat Clash Universe.
Mat Beast isn’t just another character—he’s the one that started it all.
SCRAP: The Unbreakable Original
Scrap is one of the original Mat Clash Universe characters—built from grit, grind, and second chances. His story isn’t clean, but it’s real. From losing his dad at six, to fighting through schoolyard chaos, to finding wrestling as his only structure, Scrap has always been the kid who refuses to quit.
Known for being “nasty on top,” Scrap broke onto the scene by upsetting Hammer back in youth competition—tilting the unstoppable champ and shocking everyone in the gym. That raw, relentless style followed him into Golden City, where he became one of the cornerstones of Coach Cutter’s revived program.
Scrap isn’t about polish—he’s about fight. He was there in the beginning, shaping the new Golden City room alongside MB, JV, Kauli, and Naty. And just like in real life, he’s been part of both Wave 1 and Wave 2 of Mat Clash, representing that unbreakable toughness that defines the brand.
From eviction notices to overtime scraps, his story proves that you can’t count out the kid who’s willing to fight for everything.
Scrap is more than a name. He’s a reminder: hustle beats talent when talent takes breaks.

Wrestling Needs to Be Accessible Again
Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how tough it’s becoming for kids—especially those from low-income families—to get involved in sports like wrestling. The economy isn’t kind right now. Families are stretched thin trying to...
JV – The Invisible Kid Who Found His Tribe
JV is a MAT CLASH Original, making his mark in both Wave 1 and Wave 2 of the universe. His story isn’t about being the strongest or the fastest—it’s about being seen for the first time.
Sixteen schools. Nine states. Fourteen lockers. JV was always the kid in the background, the one no one noticed. But when he landed at Golden City High, everything changed. After a run-in that caught the eye of Coach Cutter, JV found himself drawn into the newly revived Golden City Wrestling program—a place where misfits became a team, and the overlooked found purpose.
JV’s grind is different. He didn’t walk in with natural power or pedigree. He built himself one rep, one drill, one practice at a time. From struggling under a 55-pound bar to pushing himself past limits he never thought possible, JV represents every kid who ever felt like they didn’t belong—until they stepped on the mat.
That’s why JV is more than just a character. He’s a symbol of resilience, of showing up even when you want to quit, of finding strength in the grind and family in the fight.
From the shadows to the spotlight, JV’s journey is etched into MAT CLASH history. He’s not invisible anymore—and he’s not done yet.
