No one said he did or would.

But there are rules that should be followed and if the wrestler's safety is the most important concern, who cares if the match is ended due to his actions of concern?

The one question no one has answered that could end all this discussion is, what is the rule that applies when a coach walks onto the mat and stops the action by touching the opponent?
