Wednesday the Olympic Executive Committee Will Vote How Many of the 8 Proposed Sports Will be Considered for a Trial Slot at the 2020 Olympics - This May Be Wrestling's Last Chance at the Olympics!

And it appears they may  short-list 3 or 4 sports.and then the General Assembly will than choose one sport from those in September of this year.  .  

The centerpiece of the meetings will be Wednesday’s decision by the IOC board on which sport or sports to recommend for inclusion in the 2020 Olympics. Three months after it was surprisingly removed from the list of core sports, wrestling will have a chance to climb back into contention for a spot on the 2020 program.

Also competing for the single opening are seven other sports: a combined baseball-softball bid, karate, roller sports, sport climbing, squash, wakeboarding and the Chinese martial art of wushu.

The sports will make closed-door presentations to the IOC board, which will then decide on recommendations to submit to the IOC general assembly for a final decision in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in September.

There is widespread speculation that the executive board will select a shortlist of three or four finalists, including wrestling. Squash and karate have been cited as other leading contenders, while men’s baseball and women’s softball have merged to push their bid after having been off the program since the 2008 Beijing Games.
