The new Wrestling Rules approved by the FILA Bureau and presented at the FILA Extraordinary Congress in Moscow (18th May 2013) are available hereunder.
The modifications concern mainly:
1. The time and periods of the bout (2×3 minutes)

It's difficult for a spectator, not to mention the athletes, when one wrestler wins the first period 5-0, loses the next two periods 1-0 and loses the match.
Dziedzic continued, "The common view was that two minutes was not sufficient time to execute the requisite tactics and strategies to provide an exciting match. What's more, it deprives the viewing audience of witnessing the will of the wrestler."
Other changes include elevating the value of a takedown to two points (making it more valuable than a point for the pushout or a penalty point), and new point values for a technical fall – 10 points in freestyle, seven in Greco.

In addition, FILA is also changing its constitution to include a female vice-president and will increase the
