What's this?

I've always thought a reversal should be worth 3. 2 doesn't seem enough.

Imagine the following scenario.

Wrestler A gets a takedown on Wrestler B.
Wrestler B reverses.
Wrestler A escapes.

Right now, A has a 3-2 lead, while B seems to have achieved the same degree of success. Both wrestlers have gained control of their opponent once, and both have escaped their opponent's control once.

You could make the same argument for a takedown - 3 pts ** -- Wilmington Hokie 03/22/2019 11:57AM
