It is the Referee who goes to the replay booth and reviews the play. He is the one who makes the call on if the play should be overturned.

Actually, the Referee makes the decision with the consultation of a former official in the booth. That is what their headset is for.

I don't understand how WCB has any arguement at all unless he was able to hear what was said in the coversation between the two officials. Just because one of them made the signal does not mean he ran up saying you are wrong, and pointed the other way.

What I am saying to you is. Who the Referee is or who is not the Referee has nothing to do with that procedure. The two Umpires could have been involved in the play and the Referee would not signal anything. I do not see the play in question, but I know the procedure. Who is the Referee has nothing to do with that procedure. Only the two officials that are involved are going to be signaling anything.
Peace
