Sounds to me like you called it like you observed it, and if the coach doesn't like it that's too bad. Safety is first and foremost, and from what you described it sounds like the wrestler was brought back to the mat with unecessary force. As the rules state, when a wrestler picks up another wrestler from the mat it's his responsibility to bring him back to the mat safely. You're always going to have spectators trying to influence your calls, but as long as you tune them out and call it the way you see it you'll be okay!!!
