Additionally, Ferrari made history as the first true freshman to be named the Most Outstanding Wrestler of the Big 12 Conference tournament in the 2020-2021 season, amassing an impressive 12-1 record. However, the 2021-2022 season posed unexpected challenges when Ferrari, who was unbeaten at the time, was involved in a serious vehicle accident. As a result of injuries requiring surgery, Ferrari was compelled to retire from the season. More recently, A.J. Ferrari transitioned to MMA, where he diligently hones his skills in striking and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, training with fighters like Rodolfo Vieira and Jorge Masvidal at American Top Team.
