Russia has fielded a full squad of seventeen wrestlers across all weight classes (except women's freestyle 53 kg) into the Olympic competition. Majority of Olympic berths were awarded to Russian wrestlers, who finished among the top six of their respective weight classes at the 2015 World Championships, while three more secured their Olympic spots each in the men's Greco-Roman 59 & 85 kg and women's freestyle 63 kg at the 2016 European Qualification Tournament.[44][45]

Two further wrestlers had claimed the remaining Olympic slots each in the women's freestyle 58 & 75 kg to complete the Russian wrestling line-up at the final meet of the World Qualification Tournament in Istanbul.

  • VT - Victory by Fall.
  • PP - Decision by Points - the loser with technical points.
