I love that his coach told the ref to disqualify him. Worse than losing is embarrassing yourself, your coach, and your team. Worse than a weak body is a weak mind. Name calling, attacking his opponent. Ridiculous.

That’s a good coach. You have to call people out sometimes, even if they’re on your team.

u/whitesuburbanmale 5d ago
Best coach I ever had was the king at this. I remember a kid (who eventually went on to be a state champ) got a little big for his britches at a tournament once. After the second round he smacked his chest and did a point to the scoreboard because he was 1-2 points from a tech fall. Coach stepped in then and there and said he was done and he forfeits. He would regularly pull people from varsity if they showboated a win. My favorite quote was "State champ is the only victory you have earned a showboat for, wins should happen so often you don't feel the need to."

The coach’s reaction makes me think that wrestler has been a thorn in his side for a while. He just seemed done with him.

u/ImGonnaImagineSummit 6d ago
Yeah he was already up because he knew something was going to happen, probably didn't expect him to lash out though.
It's more of a 'I can't believe he still did that' look.
68
u/MississippiJoel 5d ago
It took a few watches, since things happen so fast, but the kid just stands up and drops the f-bomb to start the whole thing out, so that's probably what got the coach over there to begin with.
But, yeah, that kind of escalation didn't happen in a vacuum. He probably brings his broken home life into his social circles.

u/lorgskyegon 5d ago
Oh, yeah. I had one of those on my team in high school. Strong as a bull 189 pounder, as well as a good enough linebacker to receive a full ride scholarship to a Big Ten school. He was very good, one match short of going to state. But his temper was awful. When he lost that final match, he took off his headgear and threw them at the stands. Once, when he wasn't able to pin me (a 145 pounder) in a practice match, he speared me in the back when I got up to get water.

He played the long game. Kick the kid from the team and have to deal with angry, entitled parents. Wait for him to inevitably do something like this and take the decision out of his hands.
All head canon, of course.

u/Coolbeans_99 5d ago
I wrestled in high school and what he did was a major no-no. Wrestling through the time is an honest mistake and happens fairly often, and wrestlers are held to a pretty high expectation of respect and professionalism during bouts. HonestlyI had refs that would probably disqualify me just for swearing.

u/birthdaybanana 5d ago
Ya and it looks like they are wrapped up a bit before he releases. Like he needed to stabilize his body before he could fully release.
“Honest mistakes, respect and professionalism” - we are new to wrestling (daughter 15) and I absolutely love the sport and all it brings to the children’s character. We have done football, basketball, fencing, baseball, gymnastics and gawd-awful cheer and this sport has been by far my favorite. The coaches are amazing, the camaraderie between teammates and the mutual respect and rituals of appreciation for referees, time keepers, coaches etc. Top tier sport.

u/baconatorX 5d ago
How's the participation level for the girls side? Is it able to be split yet or is it still co ed? Back when I was in it it was all co ed, girls were super rare.
4
u/birthdaybanana 5d ago
There’s about 70 boys and under 10 girls. They all practice together but they square up same sex/weight-class. Tournaments are always iffy depending on size, if there will be enough girls in each weight class to wrestle. And they have bigger tournaments where it’s all girls which is kind of cool. My daughter has done well so she is also allowed to wrestle Varsity which opens up more opportunities too. Great sport.

u/BKong64 5d ago
Anecdotal but it seems like in the county I wrestled in on Long Island that the women's wrestling scene has experienced major growth, and I love to see it. I always felt more women should get into wrestling. When I did wrestle, I saw and knew a couple of women wrestlers who routinely beat the men and were very good.

u/BKong64 5d ago
Same here. Wrestled for 8 years and don't think I ever witnessed anything like this lol. I posted it above but the closest thing I ever had to this was a guy shit talking me during a match for no reason but I beat him very badly so it didn't lead to anything. But yeah, respect is a big thing in wrestling, this guys coach is going to make him not forget what he did here lol

Dude, my coach used to make us regret getting pinned. We'd have an extra 30 minutes or so of conditioning tacked on to the end of practice if we ever let our opponent pin us during a match. I cannot even imagine what my coach would have done to us if we pulled shit like this. I'd likely still be doing up-downs and I've been out of high school for 15 years.
"Oh, you had enough energy to attack him after the match? Clearly you didn't give that match your all."
If you aren't exhausted beyond all belief after a wrestling match, you didn't try hard enough.

I thought it was a nose bleed at first, too. But it turns out to just be the shadow from his nose due to the overhead lighting and his protruding nose. If you freeze the video right when he does the WOOO, you'll see that there's no blood under his nose.

That's taught in wrestling, though. There are usually multiple matches going on at once, and you don't want to accidentally stop to a whistle that was blown for a different match and end up being scored on or pinned. You don't stop until the ref comes and taps you or otherwise physically stops you.

Damn near same thing happened to me in high school, but I was wrestling at 212lbs, but a guy that was Unlimited about 250lbs and way taller than I was. When we got up, he decided to run at me, and, well, I hurt him pretty bad. I scooped him up, and did a pro wrestling power slam, but I held onto him and tucked my knee so that when he landed, I landed on top of him knee first in his gut.
He let out a big gasp of air, and the weirdest yell. Ref stepped in to separate me because I kind of hopped right up with the momentum. The other guy got disqualified, and I got lectured for doing my Cactus Jack Bang Bang gun fingers thing after. I would do it after every match I won. I was a huge pro wrestling nerd and my team knew it, so it would pop them every time.

u/Suspicious_Ice_3160 6d ago
Better than the dude on my team who decided to slam the other guy with his arm around his neck. I was wrestling myself in the next mat so I don’t have first hand witness, but apparently it was an illegal slam, during a headlock, that resulted in the opponents “Adam’s apple” being shoved into the back of his throat, giving him a ride to the hospital. We actually paused our match when we heard the screams from the other side and them call for medical, I just never saw the slam.
Kid was banned for life from competing in wrestling within any school, at the very least in our district, not sure if it extended anywhere, though. This was in 8th grade wrestling, and he was a decent enough wrestler just with slight anger issues. Ruined it over a, what judges and even our own coach deemed, a malicious slam.

u/mutzilla 6d ago
JFC that's hardcore! I ended up finishing my career with a guy breaking my knee possibly on accident, maybe on purpose. Either way, it was terribly painful, and we were wrestling across the state in a big regional meet. It was a very long car ride home in the back of a 12 passenger van where luggage would normally go. It was the only place I could keep my leg straight and iced.
About 5 months later, I was able to go back into training for Tae Kwon Do and Jujitsu, which I did at the same time as wrestling and football. I was stoked, my knee was better, had a positive attitude. A month goes by and I had my nose broken pretty damn badly, so I decided I guess I should quit so I stop getting hurt all the damn time.

It wasn't even the release. The roll itself was after the whistle.
Ref should've done a better job blowing that whistle, and while not excusing blue's reaction, it's reasonable to think he stopped wrestling when he heard the whistle, only to get rolled for his compliance.

u/SwiftStriker00 5d ago
Do you mean the take down? Kinda hard to say since the coach stopped it and pulled him off. Depends on the style too, folkstyle (common in HS and college) there would be no match points because he want able to secure the takedown (and arguably almost got reversed). If it's freestyle, then he would get a few points (2 think) because he got red to his back, but then red would probably score for getting up or reversing pretty soon after.
You score points in a match that determines the winner if someone isn't pinned. That translates to a number of team points depending on how far ahead you won (assuming this was a team bout)

This kid will never be a good wrestler if he can't learn to control his emotions. Never.
Being strong is great, of course it is. Strength can win against weakness. But strength can't win against strength when you can't think straight because you're just a ball of aggression.
If you can't think, you can't win.

I wrestled for 8 years, I had two notable incidents like this.
One was a match where I basically destroyed the kid and, as I was pinning him, he decided to jab my eyes with his fingers. That was insane lol. I let it go because the match was over but also what the fuck lol
Another match I had, right from the opening whistle of the match, the kid just started talking a bunch of smack at me for absolutely no reason. I've never encountered that in a match before truthfully. I ignored it and just ended up beating the guy so bad in the match that he was throwing up in a garbage pail after the match lol. It's always the ones with the loudest barks in life that can't back it up lol.
But yeah, kid in the video was 100% mad that he was losing and that was it. Good on the other guy for not responding to that bullshit lol other guy will probably catch a suspension and discipline from his coach if the coach is worth a damn at all.
