Four wrestlers held their No.1 rankings in Greco-Roman: K. ZHOLCHUBEKOV (KGZ) at 60kg, Almat KEBISPAYEV (KAZ) at 67kg, Demeu ZHADRAYEV (KAZ) at 72kg and Mohammadali GERAEI (IRI) at 77kg.

Winners of the Ranking Series events each received 8 points, plus an additional point for ever entry in their bracket. Placement points (plus number entries) were also awarded to the rest of the top five finishers: runner-up (6), bronze (4) and fifth place (2).
Points will be automatically uploaded on the UWW homepage following the conclusion of all Ranking Series events, continental and world championships.
In case of a points tie between two or more athletes, the following will determine the highest ranked individual:
- Highest number of participation in the ranking events*
- Highest number of Gold Medals in the ranking events*
- Highest number of Silver Medals in the ranking events*
- Highest number of Bronze Medals in the ranking events*
- The most classification points in the ranking events*
- The most match won by superiority in the ranking events*
- The most technical points scored in the ranking events*
* Continental Championship and UWW Select Ranking Events of the concerned year.
Should top seeded athletes not participate in the Senior World Championships or Olympic Games the same criteria will be applied to determine which athletes move into the seeding for the event.
