Discussion Topic: Brent Metcalf pinned at Eds
Hank Kornblut added to this discussion on December 6, 2007

again--It looks like an early morning match with both wrestlers at half speed. Caldwell likes to allow his opponent to step over his leg to set up several moves--most noteably his spladle. Nick Simmons used to set it up the same way.

As to the ref's pin call...technically, the shoulder blades are a broader area than is generally considered by most fans. Practically, you rarely see the refs call the lower half of the shoulder blades as a pin. I think the ref realized Metcalf had been flat for several seconds and made the late call.

Also, Ken Fields makes one really good point--Caldwell constantly looks to score.
