I understand that it is a judgement call however you cannot begin a cross face from behind the back. That was my argument. I was not even trying to get it overturned, I was simply trying to have the other official whom I approached was observing the new official and inform him that this could be an issue in the future and that official of whom I was speaking to developed an extreme attitude with me when I was being respectful towards him. This is when it became heated. I don't like to be disrespected while I am being respectful. I also felt like they may have wanted to explain to the other boy that he may eventually be hit with a flagrant penalty point awarded to the other wrestler. I know the rule and I was strictly trying to be beneficial to both the wrestler and young official. But when the official started right off from the bat with an attitude and basically
questioning my wrestling background and knowledge he was in the wrong. If I would have attempted to have the situation overturned I would have not waited until the end
of the match as I had done. Other then this situation with this official it was a great
tournament. Thank you to Joey Clark and SEK Jr. Comets
