A Scots teen tormented by cruel bullies lost five stone in less than a year thanks to throwing himself into the world of wrestling.Kayden, from Glasgow, suffers from Aspergers syndrome and was reportedly targeted by classmates, which saw his self-confidence plummet.

The 16-year-old was also diagnosed with the disorder, a form of autism, last year. Taking its toll on the teenager, he went 200 days without leaving his home in the Govan area of the city.Kayden’s distraught mother, Michelle, told Glasgow Live: “Last year wasn't confident, he wouldn't leave the house and had stopped going to school.

He hadn't left the house for 200 or so days and didn't really have any friends.“He started high school during the Covid-19 pandemic so it was closed for two years.

When it opened back up it was full on, and he was also getting bullied so his anxiety was really bad.”Things started changing when the inspirational teen started attending the Glasgow School of Wrestling in 2022, founded by ringside star, Ravie Davie, also known as Davie McCallum.
