Anyone can be at ringside.

[Nr1Humanoid]

I miss when you had to have a good reason to be at ringside.

Now it seems just anyone can go out there and the ref will just keep going.

Anyone else hate this?

Take it up with the people who give the manager licences. Give that shit out like candy nowadays, I swear.

Actually it’s quite the opposite. The state governing body that handles that is currently closed due to the pandemic. So since no one can get a manager’s license, they currently allow anyone to manage temporarily until the office reopens again.

It takes away from the dynamic that the face shouldn’t need anyone at ringside unless they need someone to neutralize a heel’s manager or someone who keeps getting involved in the matches.

I don't really have a problem with it. Boxers and MMA fighters have entire entourages come out to the ring/octagon with them as part of the spectacle. Wrestling is all spectacle.

Shit, I just got one and that’s not even why I called them!

They just want a better look. There’s only so many monitors, and awkward angles from which to watch them, backstage.

Can I be at ringside?

"Eh, no, not you!"

You're also allowed to jump up on the apron and pretty much do anything except touch the wrestlers and it's not a DQ.

I

I didn't realise managers and buddies coming to the ring with the wrestlers was 'new'

By 'new' do we mean 'post-1999'? I do not remember a time when this wasn't always happening. If anything I feel like WWE started doing less of it because they hate stables and paying more than two guys for one match.

The psychotic owner once wrestled his own daughter.

Anyone SHOULD be allowed at ringside... except the Mysterios. They should be banned permanently.

I must say I’m pleased everyone is finally as sick of Rey as I have been for 15 years.

Well if the refs could accept criticism instead of arguing with the manager giving them constructive criticism it wouldn't be a problem

I miss the days where someone couldn't have both a wrestler and manager's licence.

I loved it in 2011, Booker T starts rambling on about manager's licenses, despite the fact it had probably been more than fifteen years since one was mentioned on TV.

I really enjoyed the original WWF Nation of Domination entrance with like 15 people in it. I can't remember if they stayed during the duration of the match or not.
