Wrestling being cut from the Olympics?

[JAB5239]

After thousands of years Olypic wrestling may be making an exit to make room for squash, roller sports, sport climbing,wake boarding and wushu. OH JOY!! WTF is wushu?

[TheNegation]

What a travesty if true.

Olympics are ****ing ****** they have room for equestrian and archery but not wrestling... I remember a couple years back they were talking about cutting boxing

Wushu is a form of Chinese martial arts. Jackie Chan and Jet Li both were taught at a young age.

So let me get this straight. According to the article karate is on the chopping block as well, but the Olympic committee wants to add wushu, which is basicly the same thing?

That's a shame, I don't really care for wrestling but it's been part of the olympics for thousands of years if you count the original games.

Between letting pro's in many of the sports now and their ridiculous logic on which sports to keep or boot, the Olympics pretty much suck nowadays.

[ShoulderRoll]

That's bull****. I love me some wrestling.
