WWE needs to bring back the Scramble match

[Instant Classic]

It doesn't even have to be for the World title, maybe the IC and US title.

The Adamle Original™ Championship Scramble Match.

[BorneAgain]

Agreed. Its a fun chaotic alternative to the tired fatal four ways that need to be if not retired, at least eased up on.

[walterharrow]

Its not the greatest concept in the world but it could be a good way to get a bunch of mid card guys on to a pay per view

[Giul T.]

an IC or US scramble, in my mind, would be a show stealer, for sure. I think they've got the midcard to pull it off and get some great moments and maybe add a little prestige to the title.

[BlackoutCreature]

Yeah, it wasn't a something that could carry a PPV but I thought it could work as a nice mid-card filler match.

[Lazy peon]

It makes me think of scrambled eggs.

The problem with the scramble was that they overcomplicated explaining the rules.


All they had to say was "There is a timelimit, the match keeps going until the end of that timelimit, whoever scored the last pinfall before the time limit runs out wins the match"


instead of all this bullshit about interim champions and whatnot

[Lancers]

I'd prefer a Scrabble match. But even in that scenario, Damian Sandow still probably has to job to Cena.

[Hawk Hart]

I f***ing love the Championship Scramble match type. It's brilliant and simple.

[Martin: #TeamBella Treasurer]

Do it at Survivor Series. Have someone win the interim title just before Brock enters the match. Brock's music plays then they realise "Oh shit, I'm the interim champion!"

[Johnny]

Terrible match concept.

I would love to see a Tag Team Scramble

I've been wanting WWE to use the scramble again for years. I really cannot figure out why they haven't attempted another even under a different name.

I'll settle for an elimination style 3 or 4 man match. Why is it always first-to-a-fall?

The drama of first fall wins is a huge crutch for Vince and co. Way too easy to say "he can lose without losing", have a million and 1 near falls and either overcome the odds or lose without losing so you have another month or so of stories ready.

I always enjoyed it. But then again, I also enjoyed the old hardcore title time-limit matches just like it.

It's an interesting concept and, as seen in previous ones, can create some really memorable moments. They managed to book three on one show and have them all be different - that takes some creativity and I loved it. From Matt Hardy getting his ECW Title win, Jeff coming within seconds of winning the WWE Title, and Jericho sneaking in the backdoor for the cheap win made them all great.

I was rather mad about Punk being taken out of the match though due to a punt from Orton that was closer to hitting the fans in the arena than Punk himself. That sucked.

It's a cool idea, the endings are always awkward though I find and I'm not sure how to fix that.
