I don't think they had much of a choice. Unless they knew the exact spot for the finish, which I doubt, the spot was an obvious botch, how could you not mention the abnormality of the situation? Why do they blame the ref? Rhonda should have kept her shoulders down and Becky should have made sure that the pin was tight.
I guess the ref could have just restarted the count but that as well would have been weird and anticlimatic.
