The problem is the fraternization of the officials and the refusal of the side official to discuss his observation(s) with the head official DURING the match.

I did observe Ritchie having several conversations with Frish immediately after a match, and from facial expressions it did not appear the two agreed on Frish's performance.

The worst call was the failure to award the backpoints in the consolation finals match between McSpadden and Oliver.

The entire arena witnessed the waiving of the arm counting the back points, and then a non award. Fortunately, the match outcome was not determined by the poor officiating.

It is unfortunate Jimmy Ramirez was not working the tournament. Im my opinion, Jimmy always brings his A game and forces the other officials to improve.

Jimmy may be a bit quick to warn for stalling and award stalling points however every wrestlter knows how Jimmy calls the match and he is consistent with his calls.
