WKF karate is mainly kicking now, has there been a rule change?

WKF karate looks nothing like the days of Agheav involving a western shoot out with tsukis, this is constant leg action now.

Either coaches have decided on other tactics to score for their fighters or there has been a rule change.

I have checked and double checked if it was the specific fighters and it's not.. WKF looks like TKD now. Very odd.
