Zyon Trujillo

Zyon, a kid driven by combat, was led into the wrestling room by mentors who saw something in him. At first, he wanted to quit. Instead, he stayed — and fell in love with the sport. While his long-term dream has always been to fight, Zyon committed to mastering wrestling first, setting his sights on becoming a Division I All-American. What once seemed far-fetched became reality when UVU believed in him.

Zyon began his athletic journey in jiu-jitsu before shifting his focus fully to wrestling. That background paid off immediately, helping him find success early. Since then, Zyon has captured three state titles and earned his spot as a Division I wrestler. Now in the starting lineup at Utah Valley University as a true freshman, he remains locked in on constant improvement. Before his wrestling career is finished, his goal is clear: become an All-American. After that, his path leads to the UFC.

While Zyon thrives in combat, there’s more to him than the grind. He’s a Sour Patch Kid addict, a Lego enthusiast, and a fan of campaign-style video games. Zyon is more than just his ambitions — but in the wrestling world, he’s a fighter determined to prove every doubter wrong.
