'''Wrestler''' is a [[Copy Ability]] which gives [[Kirby]] several different grappling and wrestling moves. It first appeared in ''[[Kirby Fighters 2]]'', and is currently exclusive to that game, meaning there is no enemy that grants this ability when swallowed, making it the only Copy Ability to have this trait. It is also the second Copy Ability to be introduced in a spin-off game, the other being [[Balloon]], which debuted in ''[[Kirby: Canvas Curse|{{KCC KPP}}]]''.

When using the Wrestler ability, Kirby dons a brightly-col{{o}}red red and yellow luchador mask with flame-like decals which covers the upper half of his body, leaving only two holes in the front for his eyes. This ability gives Kirby several different melee attacks, in addition to lunges, grabs, and throws, making it very similar to both the [[Fighter]] and [[Suplex]] abilities.

==Trivia==
[[File:Wrestling Mask.jpg|thumb|100px|The Wrestling Mask headgear from ''Kirby Battle Royale'']]
*The Meteor Plancha attack is based on [[smashwiki:Incineroar (SSBU)|Incineroar]]'s upward-special move "Cross Chop" in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
*With five pages worth of moves, Wrestler is the most complex Copy Ability in ''Kirby Fighters 2'', and among the most complex abilities in the entire ''Kirby'' series.
*A wrestling mask of similar design previously appeared as [[Alternate costumes#Kirby Battle Royale|Headgear]] for the [[Fighter]] ability in ''[[Kirby Battle Royale]]''.
*The primary artwork of Wrestler Kirby has a nearly identical pose to Kirby's official artwork for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
