speed and balance
Balance is a key factor in wrestling. Without balance, you would just get taken down quicker than my brother runs to the kitchen. Usually the stand-up portion of the match is is to see who can upset the others balance. To build balance, you need to build strength, coordination, and flexibility. All of those factors, plus a strong core, will make great balance.
Speed is also a key factor in wrestling. If you have good speed, it improves all of the other traits on the wrestler. The most important components of building speed are relaxation, and muscle memory.
Relaxed muscles respond faster and move faster than tensed up muscles. The brain is a muscle, right? If your brain is relaxed and not tense and thinking of a million things at one time, your reaction time will be just right and not too late. The secret to all of this is familiarity. If you get used to all of the wrestling, your muscles won't be so tensed all the time. Muscle memory is also a key component of speed. Its like if you drill the move enough times in a practice your brain locks it away to use on your opponent in the match. This also takes fractions of seconds off the move, which counts in a physical and high-speed sport like wrestling.
