Wait, I just realized... The rules of the match is that the person who grabs the sledgehammer can use it legally in the match. So, (ignoring the stupid part of a ladder match already being no DQ, so what's stopping either of them from simply pulling out a weapon from under the ring?) does this mean that it's a ladder match that can only end with a pin or submission? I mean, it's not like the person who grabs the sledgehammer wins the match at that moment, and then gets one free shot at the loser, right? "Brilliant, ain't it?"

Thing it, funny as this sounds to begin with, it's just going to be a normal (and rather prodding) brawl with some ladder shots through in rather than even the slightest attempt at high-flying high spots.
Though they'll both have the 'slow climbing' bit down great.

I loved Otunga's "and whoever gets the sledge hammer gets the legal right to use it against their opponent." Yes, whoever gets the sledge hammer gets the legal right to KILL THEIR OPPONENT. There is a legal precedence in place for it. It comes from the pivotal court case "Brown v. Oh my god that man just hit me with a sledgehammer." A monumental ruling it was. This match should be fun. I can already see from this thread that the excitement is palpable...and in need of an ambulance because it may have just torn its quad. (Doesn't matter if it's an old joke. It's still funny.)

It should be an ok match of course don't expect any sick bumps off the ladder from either one of them but other than that it shouldn't be bad but we shall see

Also, besides the Hall/Goldberg ladder match, this stipulation of "Whoever gets the weapon can use it" in this ladder match is reminding me of a Sandman/Carlito "Singapore Cane on a Pole" match we had a few years back.

This has the potential to be the first ladder match in history where the ladder wins

I'd love it if it was a 3 second match, which involved Nash casually strolling to the center of the ring, and simply reaching up and grabbing the sledgehammer.

That was in DDT I believe. This match is going to suck btw. The rules are stupid too. Nash has already beaten HHH with a sledgehammer outside of a match, why would he be excited about the ability to do it legally inside of a match? Why is it only legal to climb up and grab the sledgehammer when a ladder match is NO DQ anyway? How do you win? It's just so poorly thought out and explained IMO.
