A massive issue in terms of background is pay, good strikers typically have more earning potential in their own sports than wrestlers so need to be paid better from the start to switch, something the UFC rarely does. The same thing is happening with BJJ as well that's becoming a sport you can earn very good money teaching in and at some contests.
Wrestlers dominate the talent base now because their sport is generally very hard to earn a living in hence the draw to MMA is greater.
