4:30 - please explain to me what's going on? The brunette guy fouled something, got whistled at and went into the penalty position so the other guy could try to flip him over? I just don't know the rules of wrestling.

[@MidwestWrestle]

Welcome to the channel! Although Freestyle wrestling uses "Ordered Parterre" as a penalty position, that is not the case in American Folkstyle. If you listen to the audio very closely, you can hear someone counting down, "3... 2... 1... time." The reason the referee stopped the match is because the 2nd period had ended. The wrestler wearing the green ankle band had choice of position going into the third period, and as you can see by his hand gesture, he intentionally chose the "down" position, also known as the defensive starting position. This is a very common choice because most wrestlers find it easier to earn a point for escaping than it is to take their opponent down from the neutral position, or to turn their opponent to their back from the "top" position, otherwise known as the offensive starting position. I recommend the following website to help with understanding the foundational concepts of Folkstyle wrestling: www.indeewrestling.com/folkstyle-wrestling-rules/ Please feel free to comment any time you have a question not answered above or below: Q. What do {G} and {R} in the video title mean? A. They refer to the green and red ankle bands which the wrestlers wear, and the wristbands which the referee wears, that are used for scoring purposes. Q. Who won the match? A. Those details can be found in the description for each video.

Wie immer, danke für das Video. Wäre es möglich zwischendurch den Punktestand einzublenden?

[@MidwestWrestle]

Vielen Dank. Ich habe daran gearbeitet, mehr Filmmaterial der Anzeigetafel in Videos zu integrieren, die in jüngerer Zeit gedreht wurden. Allerdings gibt es immer noch eine große Anzahl älterer Videos wie dieses, die gedreht wurden, bevor ich angefangen habe, die Kamera häufiger zur Anzeigetafel zu bewegen.

Ref called clasping pretty quick early on. Also, wrestling on your knees in neutral rarely does anything for you against a quality opponent. Get to your feet, or he is going to crowd you and score. Good match.

What the hell is going on with everyone wearing masks at the event?

[@ripmyjeans]

apparently it fried people's brains bad enough that you can't remember 3 years ago..... *read the description*

Remember there was a pandemic? If you’re an anti vax person please please keep it out of this.
