Was this really a pin?

Who really pinned who in this video? I am so sick of wrestling refs making bad calls. Each ref has their own set of rules. One ref may call a foot "out." Another ref may call it if one player is "out," yet another won't blow the whistle "out" unless both players' bodies are outside of the circle. Come on guys, get some type of cohesive standard amongst the sport. This particular video upset me because the ref acted like he just did not want to be there, so he made each match as quick as possible.

In Canada its 1 second, both shoulder blades down, WITH THE TOP MAN CLEARLY IN CONTROL.

This is my first year reffing and one thing I was told by a mentor was that the refs code is to really call it for 3 seconds for the offensive man getting pinned. This guy just got slap happy.

If the ref says it was a pin, then it was a pin.

At :30 the kid in all blue was pinned. at :53 he wasnt, that was like 1/2 second.

nope, if it was that ref's mind is in slow mo

Bad call. His shoulders have to be down for 2 seconds, not 1. I've had this happen to me before where my shoulders were only down for 1/2 a second and yet the ref still declared it a pinfall. The refs in my league were so lousy.

That wasn't a pin. That always happens to me tho. Refs these days need to all be in the same page.
