I found these pictures on The Guillotine‘s photo album in Google. Pretty sweet shots of a nice scramble. First off, I’ll spoil it and say that the dude in the Blue and Gold striped singlet looks like he won. (There’s a shot of him hugging his coach with a huge smile across the coaches face – I’m putting two and two together and guessing here…) A lot of people will take a look at these shots and wonder how is it that he won? Isn’t he the one with his back towards the mat most of the time? Well, you have something called riding time and another thing called back exposure. If a wrestler is in control and exposes his back to the mat, the ref will reward him back points. Also, if the wrestler is in control for an amount of time, he is awarded points (riding time). So lets take a look at the pictures. If you click on them they’ll go to their normal size and you’ll be able to scroll through them in the pop up.
