Bo to 97 confirmed, I guess? I’m so curious how that’s going, given what he weighed in at for Final X.

Surely we will see what Cox is going to do in the very near future...that seems to be a bigger secret than Cassar's status

kingslayer_85 · Jan 6, 2020

I know we can qualify a weight at the Pan Ams but what is the other tournament we can qualify a weight for the Olympics?

Str8DBLz · Jan 6, 2020

Last chance qualifier I believe

I think you are slightly mixing terminology up.

the last chance quailifier is for a spot on team trials

“Final U.S. Olympic Trials Qualifier March 2020
The top two (2) place finishers* in the Men’s Freestyle champion of this event per weight category will qualify for the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Wrestling. Athletes who have already qualified will NOT be allowed to compete in this event.
* A true second will be contested if the 2nd and 3rd place finishers from any weight category at this event did NOT wrestle each other in the tournament. They will wrestle one match at the end of the tournament and the winner of this match (that is, the 2nd place finisher) will qualify for the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Wrestling.”

the olympic weight qualifier is in May in Bulgaria

“World Olympic Games Qualifier
Sofia, Bulgaria April 30 – May 3, 2020
The winner of the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Wrestling tournament will then compete in the World Olympic Games Qualifier. If for any reason the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Wrestling winner is unable to compete in this last opportunity
8

to qualify the weight category, a replacement will be determined in accordance with Section 4.1.1. In any case, if the weight category is qualified via the World OG Qualifier, the winner of the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Wrestling will be USA Wrestling’s designee for the 2020 Olympic Games, regardless of who qualifies the weight category.”

“2020 Pan American Olympic Qualifier March 2020
The Senior Freestyle USA athlete who qualifies the Olympic weight category at the Pan American Olympic Qualifier will earn a spot in the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Wrestling.”

Pretty sure you can only go to your "continental" tourney, so there are only 3 opportunities to qualify the weight for your country (2019 Worlds, Pan Ams for US guys, and the Bulgaria tourney (which I've seen called Last Chance Qualifier too)).

nerfstate is correct, you can only go to your "continental" qualifier. In addition, each nation can only send one wrestler per weight class and cannot send anyone in a weight class that they have already qualified. So, for example, US will not send a 74kg wrestler to Pan Am qualifier since Burroughs already qualified the weight for US. Here is an informative page on wikipedia regarding who has qualified:
