From what I heard before, the referee wouldn't allow it because the cover wasn't according to regulations. Hard to know whether that is true though. If the cover wasn't according to regulations, that's on the coaching staff, not the referee.

I believe the ref was suspended. Apparently he just doesn’t like dreads? Racist? I don’t know but if I had to guess.....

The ref is definitely racist. He had been previously suspended for another racist incident. So that part is confirmed.

I feel bad for the kid. I honestly would have told everyone (including coaches) to go **** all. I'm not cutting shit.

Ok strange question, but why cut your dreads? Couldn't you just wrestle without the head cover and let your dreads hang loose?

You ever seen cauliflower ear? Because that is how you get cauliflower ear. There is a reason head gear is mandatory in Greco-Roman wrestling.
