They didn’t disallow the challenge, the coaches cancelled it. The rule is actually straight forward. If the wrestler who initiates the action steps out in the process of a TD, then it is still a TD. Dake had a TD and the challenge would’ve failed and put Dake back in the lead. It was a good call not to. 

Thats what I assumed. But, @HumblestMumble had me doubting for a second

Tough to go from thinking you won the Olympics to having to wrestle but that’s the right call

[D3 for LU]

Zare w/ the challenge won... goes to the break w/ a chance to get back.
