The first medical forfeit will count as a loss on the wrestler’s record unless it is preceded by an injury default. Referees now have the authority to confirm or overturn calls during video review sequences. Additionally, requesting a delayed video review will no longer result in a penalty, with the loss of the review being the only consequence for delays. Takedowns in matches have been standardized to be worth three points each in the upcoming season.
