Voice of Podium: Interview with Aiden Stevenson, 2025 Canadian National Champion

🎙️ Voice of the Podium

What separates successful wrestlers from everyone else when the pressure is at its highest?

In Part 1 of our conversation with Canadian National Champion Aidan Stevenson, we explore the mental and strategic side of wrestling—from adapting in the middle of a match to handling pressure in the final seconds.

The discussion also touches on athlete development, the growth of wrestling in Canada, and why some of the sport's most important stories can't be found on the scoreboard.

Topics include:

• Wrestling development and growth
• Matches where the score didn't tell the full story
• What outsiders often misunderstand about wrestling
• Adjusting strategy mid-match
• Toughest opponents and difficult styles
• High-pressure moments in close matches
• Changes he would make to the sport
