- don't really see how changing the scoring would press the action more than the out of bounds rule, or riding time
At first I thought the same thing, but I am liking the scoring idea more and more. The goal in wrestling is to get the pin. I would like to see the 1st takedown be worth more, reward the wrestler that scores first. More back points rewards the wrestler who is being aggressive, but makes it so they need to be working for the Fall or a Technical Fall will occur sooner. It also rewards a kid that was aggressive and got some back points but then they are negated by a reversal. Backpoints should be worth more than a reversal. The goal is to put your opponent on their back. I personally like the new points idea.
