  who else has gotten their hair cut by a ref during pre-match inspection?

  I heard there is no more weighing in bare naked? I needed every extra gram possible to make weight. Slingin Johnson wasn't a problem for me..I just made sure to keep my distance from the guy in front of me, and watched out for the guy behind me.

  Seriously? I would've missed weight a ton if this were the rule 15 years ago.

  Correct, new this season. The reason for it, cameras on cell phones!! I would have never made weight with any clothes on either!!
  
  The rule also states the wrestler must wear a suitable undergarment that completely covers the buttocks and groin. Also the breasts for females.

  Why didn't he just get his butt kicked and then move on? Smh.

  True story, my son comes of the mat after wrestling this weekend, he is pissed off that he lost in overtime. I thought no bid deal you win some you lose some, then my son says his opponent started to stick his finger up his "anus", his words not mine. I guess some biddy coaches don't know how to teach the butt drag.
  
  p.s. we are not suing

  saw the strangest cradle at st charles tourny this weekend. wrestler A is trying to run half, just can't get kid to turn, so leaves half in and runs far side cradle, locked it up, the ref didn't know whether to call it an illegal move or what. the look on the ref's face was priceless. gave the kid the pin.
