Wrestling was a core part of medieval fighting especially concerning knights. Yet how come grappling is featured so rarely in medieval/fantasy fighting?

In The King during Henry's duel with Mortimer there is wrestling. That's the only scene I can think of.
cause grappling another man can be seen as gay
This. It’s even boring in the ufc unless there’s a lot of scrambling

I suppose its harder to choreograph and make look exciting instead of the hero just swinging his longsword across the breastplates of mooks, who then die instantly.
I wished more capeshit used wrestling as a basis for its fights
Like that one Wonder Woman fight from the animated movies
>main characters kill armored soldiers with sword slices
Not if I karate chop you unconscious on the shoulder first
>armored soldier gets shot with submachine gun

Watch Alexander instead of fantasy
knights in full plate look way cooler with a poleaxe
>wrestling
Ever since the Roman times the focus was just to throw your opponent on the ground so you could stab him.
It didn't have any hooking or submitting.
This is why we need more maces in these movies.
>hug someone

Boxing is superior.
Why are you fucking lying? Literally every modern film has guys rolling aroudn in the mud stabbing each other. See The KIng, there's literally a knights duel which quickly collapses into wrestling, Outlaw King also has soldiers getting up and close with each other. Have any of you retards tried actually watching a movie?
Kinky
Wrestling is queercoded gay sex FYI
