    The IOC took a break from pocketing sponsorship money that the cities being bankrupted by hosting the bloody event to decide that, from the 2020 Games, they will no longer be staging wrestling...whilst keeping other events such as synchronized diving.

    Kurt Angle has had this to say about the move...

    Several other people with amateur backgrounds have commented via Twitter...

    Unfortunately, the most vocal opponent of this move is The Iron Sheik...

    He hasn't taken it well...

    PS. The Iron Sheik is brilliant on twitter.

    I never thought there would be a day when a legitimate sport would be marginalized by the IOCC!

    Bring back tug-o'-war!!

    For a minute then I thought this was a wind up about people wrestling in a ditch.

    Do you like WWE??
