Couldn't they just say that the last person to score a pinfall or submission is "It", and whoever's "It" at the end of the match is the Champion? That'd make things a lot less confusing and frustration-inducing.

They should just make it a multi-person iron man match. That's what I was hoping for when he was announcing it.

Guys wrestling is fake. I can wrap toilet paper around my waste and claim it the world title of wrestling and it would have the same validity. I will challenge you for this title good sir. Come this Sunday... you know the rest.

um, it was clearly stated that only the one who has the final fall will be counted as the Champion. Until then, you are just ABOUT to be the winner.

Folks this is not the first time a title has been contested like this remember Wrestlemania 2000's Hardcore title match? It's the same thing only 5 wrestlers this time. So it's not an Adamle Orginal it's a rehashing from 9 years ago. WrestleMania 2000 was 9 years ago? Can I borrow your time machine?

The way I understood it, they're only going to acknowledge the person at the end of the match as champion, and everyone in the interim doesn't count. In that way, it wouldnt' be like the 24-7 matches, it's just a scramble to see who holds it last, and that person gets the title, as opposed to there being 15 title changes in the meantime. The match itself is a title match, the winner of that match, the one who is acknowledged as the champ, is the one who is holding it at the end. Yeah, thats what I got out of the wording too... they could have made it a little clearer though. or just make it an multiman iron man...

I want to actually see the match before I write it off as Russo-riffic, but it really sounds Russo-riffic.

I don't think thousands of people go to your house on Monday nights and watch you defend your Toilet Paper Championship against Kane. And if they did, I wouldn't want to see it.

But I would like to add that I give this idea a thumbs down.

Only the winner of the actual match will count as a new champion, not every pinfall.

This is a terrible idea which mimics the WM2000 battle royal and makes me think of that ridiculous 6 pack challenge at Night of the Champions two years ago.

It's on days like this that I realize exactly how much I miss WCW circa 1995 to 1997, as well as ECW same time frame plus one or two years.

I think the idea for the match is stupid, but come on now. Its a wrestling title, not an Olympic Gold Medal.

I really hope that every pinfall counts as a title change. I actually think that nowadays, people have too long of reigns. There should be a new champion AT LEAST every four weeks.
