She chose her husbands by wrestling.

She chose her husbands by wrestling in the arena. Khutulun, the daughter of the Mongol ruler of the period, was raised as a soldier from her childhood. She participated in military expeditions and killed her enemies mercilessly. She was also a talented wrestler. She was defeating her opponents with his intelligence and extraordinary technique. Thinking that her husband should be stronger than herself, Khutulun would offer wrestling to men who wanted to marry her. If a man could not beat her, she would not accept the marriage. Since men were unable to defeat her, Khutulun remained alone for many years. She eventually gave up the wrestling offer and got married.

So she didn’t choose a husband from wrestling after all.
