Wrestling, one of the earliest and most elemental Olympic sports, was dropped from the Summer Games on Tuesday, February 12th 2013. In a completely unexpected and stunning move, the IOC decided to remove a fixture of Olympic competition dating to 708 B.C.

We encourage supporters of all Olympic competition to stand against this decision and begin with a Tweet to the IOC to express your displeasure. Together we can save this incredible sport and maintain the rich tradition of the Olympic games.
