I even asked chat gpt. This was the answer.
In the United States, folkstyle wrestling is generally considered to be more popular than freestyle wrestling. This is evidenced by the higher attendance numbers at the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Wrestling Championship, which features folkstyle wrestling, compared to the United States Senior Open Wrestling Championships, which features freestyle wrestling.
For example, in 2021, the NCAA Wrestling Championship had an attendance of 16,285 for the finals session, while the United States Senior Open Wrestling Championships had an attendance of 2,500 for the finals session. Similarly, in 2019, the NCAA Wrestling Championship had an attendance of 18,950 for the finals session, while the United States Senior Open Wrestling Championships had an attendance of 1,000 for the finals session.
These attendance numbers suggest that more people in the United States are interested in watching folkstyle wrestling than freestyle wrestling. However, it's worth noting that these tournaments cater to different audiences, as the NCAA Wrestling Championship is focused on college wrestling, while the United States Senior Open Wrestling Championships is focused on senior-level freestyle wrestling.
