Stalling Question


Thor

Recommended Posts

I think if everyone could take out their rulebook, and go to section 7-6 article 6 c.  where it does state  it is stalling when either wrestler repeatedly creates a stalemate situation to prevent an opponent from scoring.   So the question is not whether or not the wrestler was stalling or not.  But did the official determine that the wrestler was the one that was creating the stalemate situation repeatedly.  If so, then stalling should have been called.  Could there  have been or was there some preventive officiating where the official told the offending wrestler that he was creating the stalemate situation and would need to improve from that position and repeated acts of that kind would be penalized?  Maybe? Keep in mind there are two wrestlers on the mat, and by not penalizing one wrestler is actually sometimes penalizing the other.
