Despite a great start to the Greco-Roman World Olympic Qualifier, the U.S. was unable to earn Olympic berths at the final two unqualified weight classes, 77 and 130 kg. Olympic Team Trials champions Jesse Porter and Adam Coon both opened their tournaments with wins before dropping their second matches. While both wrestlers remain eligible for repechage, only the finalists earn berths to the Olympic Games.
