definitely pad the walls, e.g. with mats, as you will bump into them if there is intense action, and it is a bummer if a match gets stopped due to someone's head hitting a wall too hard from a miscalculated roll or fall or from the two opponents struggling intensely. definitely pad protruding edges (friezes/baseboards – great for generating wounds/injuries), similarly around the doorknob (or make the doorknob easily removable for the duration of the match); you might also want to pad corners.
I also suggest to add a good amount of diffuse lighting. say all around the edge hidden underceiling lighting... the lower you can afford to put them, the larger area of the ceiling they will light up, the more even your lighting will be. or put up some strong directed ceiling lights directed into the corners of the room to light it up diffusely. or a combination (find a lighting designer, if you have to). will further help avoiding accidents, plus opponents can see each other much better... plus you also open the door for photos/videos that way. I'd also repaint the walls in a somewhat warmer tone, the tone visible on your photo gives a cooling "this is an elegant, distinguished space (akin to an art gallery) – so behave yourself!" vibe.

20 dagen geledenYou did it! I love how this started out as a dream and now it has manifested.
If you build it, they will come.
Happy New Year, man, and may this new year surpass all expectation for you.

22 dagen geledenI just finished remodeling my basement. Here's how it looks. Do you think it'll be a good wrestling space?

I wish I had this kind of space for wrestling. All you need are some mats and it's go time!
