I have no where concrete to point except for this post, but I trust all of Mikel123's research as he seems well versed in this stuff.

Seriously though, if anything, you can put Wrestling as your 7th skill, but Meditation is a waste in my opinion.
So, is this for pvp or pvm? If you're fighting monsters, let's say you use a q-staff. 109 stamina is where you attain a swing every 1.25 ticks. On the other hand, for PvM, you might be happy without using blue potions... in which case, 79 stamina is where you'd gain a swing every 1.5 seconds (78 stamina is 1.75). Now, me personally, I'd add about 12 stamina as a "buffer", for having pushed through something (-10 for pushing through something big) and another 2 stamina from fatigue from running. So, let's say 79+12 = 91. So I'd go with 91 Dex, minimum, to help ensure I was always swinging at max speed.
For PvP, you're sadly better off weapon cycling (disarming, waiting until a wrestling swing has loaded, then re-arming and using the wrestling swing with a weapon). But, for disrupting Recalls, Greater Heals, and whatever else, if you want to swing every 1.25 seconds, again you'll need 109+ stamina. Let's say 110 because I always seem to be down 1 stamina from running. So 90 raw Dex is as low as I'd go, and you'll have to be real vigilant about red and blue potions.
