Nick Simmons (born October 25, 1982)[1] is an American former wrestler, who represented the United States at the 2011 World Wrestling Championships.

Simmons was known as the "East Lansing Strangler" for his ability to pin at a high rate, partially due to his above-average height for a wrestler at his weight.

At Michigan State University, Simmons was a four-time NCAA All-American and three-time Big Ten Champion.

In 2005, Simmons competed in the University World Games, finishing in 5th place after losing in the bronze medal match.
