I believe the issue here was WHEN he did the finger gesture. Obviously if you are doing something like this as the match is going on or when you have just pinned a guy its not appropriate. If you did it very quickly after the leg bands are off then I would see that as just a little bit of celebration. I did not witness the match, and I certainly don't know the Cardwell kid personally. But I do know that he should be very careful of i in the future, because team points are very important, especially when you are competing for a state title.
