The 2017 Wrestling World Cup – Men's freestyle was the last of a set of three Wrestling World Cups in 2017 which were held in Kermanshah, Iran on 16–17 February 2017.

Initially the United States' team was having trouble entering the country to participate in the tournament due to visa issues. The root of the problem was Iran's counter measures to US travel ban blocking the entry of residents from predominantly Muslim countries into United States.^[1] However after the requests from both Iranian and American wrestling federations the visa issues got resolved on 6 February 2017, and U.S team was eligible to join the tournament.^[2]
