I'm wondering this as well.
Can anyone here give us non-wrestlers a clear explanation of this 'hydration test' and it's purpose, please?

The yellower your piss is, the less dehydrated you are, which means you aren't in your "true" weight.
So, They do a testing of your piss, which shows whether you are in your "real" weight or not, and if you pass, then you proceed.
Ah... I see... I think...
But, don't you mean "The yellower your piss is, the
more dehydrated you are"?
And surely that just means that wrestlers just, as in the OP, drink lots of water just before the test, making them over-hydrated and the test pointless.
