Dumbest Rules In Wrestling?

By Scott Keith on 16 April 2022

Hi Scott. What rules in pro-wrestling do you think are the dumbest? My Top 3 are: 1.) Wrestlers that aren't eliminated in a Battle Royal get to stay on the floor as long as they want. 2.) Having wrestlers follow tag-team rules in no D.Q. matches. 3.) Having there be no D.Q. rules in Triple Threat/Fatal 4-way, etc. matches.

The first one isn’t actually a rule. There’s precedent for guys getting sent back if they aren’t engaging.

I really hate the “both feet touch the floor” stip for the Rumbles because it’s just a technicality that has turned into a very played out trope. If you get thrown out and any part of your body hits the floor, you’re OUT. That should be the rule.
