Question

If I put the tires on the plywood, and some blankets and the tarp, wouldn't it fall through the tire holes?

Community Answer

Yes. Use mattresses, then put a thin piece of wood over the mattresses. Layer some softer materials such as blankets. You can also box in the mattresses with wood all the way around, and just drill them together.

Question

How much does it cost to build a cheap wrestling ring?

Community Answer

Normally, it will cost up to $300 just to produce a wrestling ring. You should definitely look into how much the mats cost, as well as the ropes. Wrestling Mart is a good store that sells all the things that you will need to build a cheap wrestling ring.

Question

Will it be painful if I fall on the stage?

Community Answer

Yes; it will be painful for the first month or two, but you should eventually get used to it. Another good way to lessen the pain is to replace the tires with mattresses.

Question

Could I eventually have just plain wood raised above the ground?

Community Answer

If you have a frame, preferably metal under the wood, then absolutely. The tires are there to support the wood though, so unless you have a different form of support, don't remove the tires.

Question

How much weight can the ropes hold?

Community Answer

300 to 400 pounds, if you get the right kind of ropes. The stronger and tighter the ropes, the more they can hold.

Question

How do the poles stay up on a wrestling ring?

Community Answer

They should be about 0.6 m in the ground, so they shouldn't move. If they are moving, you will have to put something around/over them to keep them in place.

Question

How do I build a wrestling ring if I don't have access to a junkyard or old tires?

Community Answer

You don't have to use old tires for a wrestling ring, nor do you have to visit a junkyard; buying some cheap mattresses and using them works just as well as some old tires.

Question

Is it better to build the ring on real or fake grass?

Community Answer

Any will do. Just put mats on the ground so you don’t get hurt when you fall on them.
