A lot of big great athletes choose football over wrestling for the money or popularity aspect, but a lot of them don't choose wrestling because the training is too hard as well, most of them couldn't cut it in wrestling.

Football talent and wrestling talent are not necessarily the same thing. A lot of great football players would never make great wrestlers. Football players exert really hard for about 7 seconds and then rest for 30 seconds, and then do it again. Wrestlers, wrestle really hard for 7 straight minutes without all the rest. Then there are the excruciating practices. Not to mention the biggest athletes would have to cut weight to get down to 285. Wrestling is far harder mentally and physically. Certainly, some of the best football players would be wrestling champions, but probably not as many as some people think.
