Basilisa Marie Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Wrestling will now join seven other sports in applying for 2020, but it is extremely unlikely that it would be voted back in so soon after being removed by the executive board. The other sports vying for a single opening in 2020 are a combined bid from baseball and softball, karate, squash, roller sports, sport climbing, wakeboarding and wushu, a martial art. Looks like part of the reason why it was voted out was because it was getting low ratings - no one was watching it. Maybe this will get more people to pay attention to it.
