I can see the argument for adding any number of sports to the Olympics. It's the fact that WRESTLING was cut instead of "sports" like ping pong, rhythmic gymnastics, shooting, trampoline and archery. It's one of the few sports that you basically don't need any equipment to compete--two competitors, a room with a softish floor and a circle marking the boundaries.

One of the greatest, if not the greatest, Olympians ever was Russian wrestler Alexander Karelin. It would be sad if that legacy were wiped out.
