The Olympic qualification system was also approved, with the World Championships getting six slots, Continental qualifiers (8) and a World Open (2) accounting for the 16 allotments. Continental championships will also be held.

The junior-level and U-23 wrestlers will also compete at the senior-level weight categories.
