Imagine BJJ has more in common with judo but I have always wanted to try wrestling and I often find myself using a lot of wrestling techniques (again I think I'm not sure) in judo ie relying more on pins than submissions, focusing on top control, and often gripping in what I think is more of a judo friendly collar and elbow grip when standing and using techniques that involve moving towards your opponent ie cerntain foot sweeps, osoto gari (I'm diversifying as I improve I now work in mostly 3 diff kinds of seio nage, uchi mata, and occasionly tai otoshi)
