Welcome back to the Social Room of WrestlingTV.in, the only place to catch all the inside stories in the world of wrestling. Social Room is a special series that enables you to have a peek in the lives of the wrestler outside the mat.
Today we bring you another epic failure but this time from Olympic champion Erica Wiebe. The Canada wrestler posted a throwback video on Instagram of her trying to do backflip. The video was of 2015 which was a year before she created history for Canada in Rio.
Wiebe had enrolled into the adult Gymnastics classes. She had decided to do something fun and as always wanted to challenge herself and explore new horizons.
“So many fun memories doing the Adult Gymnastics classes at @kyleshewfeltgymnastics in 2015! It was pre-Olympic year and I had lost the CDN nationals and wouldn’t be representing Canada at the World Championships that year. I decided to take the Summer to find joy, challenge myself in different ways and explore new horizons. I think it paid off… #gymnasticsfail #backflip . Shout-out to my all star coaches @kyleshew & @gafuik_nathan,” she said.
