This is not a goal for an episode nor for a season, "...one day wrestle at the Olympic Games?" is an ambition. This is because he is an amateur wrestler with no professional or competitive experience and the road to Olympic qualification is long.

What specific goal does he need to achieve in episode one that will get him closer to achieving his ambition? Think of each episode as a stepping stone closer to achieving his ambition plot out the necessary milestones he needs to have reached/achieved before he makes it onto the Olympic team.

Each one of these could be an episode specific goal.

This is the writers job to come up with these goals and the plots to achieve them a few I can think of now are:
To earn a specific amount of money to be able to afford a Gi.
Or to get a membership in a local dojo?
Perhaps he wants to prove himself to his dream Sensei.

Then using a logline you can work on the structure of the pilot episode to achieve that specific goal.

The most important element to adapt from "Breaking Bad" is an attention grabbing pilot episode, one that hooks the audience, makes them want to tune in next week to see what happens next.
