You don't even have to go that far. What happens if someone gets pinned during the first interval? Does the person who scored the point just sit there for 90 seconds? I don't see why not, that's what happens in the Rumble. Kind of the big difference though is that in the Rumble that's a chance to catch your breath a bit, in this it'd effectively be punishing the person for getting a pin too quickly by having to waste precious time before they can potentially get another.

I don’t mind the scramble match mixed in with that elimator battle royals rules. It’s just that stupid penalty box that reminds me of tna. I mean, it kind of makes sense. Why people wouldn’t just keep beating up and pinning the same guy.
also, why is the Iron survivor match a month after the survivor series?

Now, I don't want to accuse WWE of ripping off my brilliant ideas, but I do want to remind everyone that I invented The King of the Iron Rumble Match more than two years ago on this very board.

All I know is that the last guy has to whoop some serious ass to catch up but by whooping a lot of ass he’s going to have everyone in the penalty box and thus not allowing him to continue whooping ass.
DQ’d for kicking too much ass 2022.

The penalty box makes it stupid. Like, if it was just "You have 25 minutes to get as many points as possible. You get a point on pinfall/submission/DQ and lose a point if you're pinned, submitted, or DQ. Go.", that'd be fine. What does a 90 second timeout box even add to the match? If anything, it's not even that big a disadvantage aside from wasting 90 seconds. I don't know.

Seriously calling this King of The Mountain At Home is totally downplaying the like other million other silly things that made that match what it is. I need a Wild Slapnuts to appear or no buys! Sorry he’s in AEW so you’ll get Road Dogg guest appearing as “We Have Jeff Jarrett at Home” and you’ll damn well like it.

My guess would be if say...Cora Jade hit...Isla Dawn with the kendo stick, then Isla would get the point, and Cora has to go into the time-out box. Ok, but what if someone gets DQ'd for hitting the referee to stop a three count, who gets the point then? If it happens in the women's match, Thea Hail. In the men's, Duke Hudson. Andre Chase looks out for his students.

Okay that seems simple but since you can get points at anytime, why would you want to be last? Since DQs count, who gets the points for that? The penalty box makes sense so you can't Lesnar your way to a victory at least. I think WWE storytelling logic will be talking about how the last person in is the freshest and therefore and everyone will be very ripe for the picking. But either way it’s weird because they’ll still only have 10 minutes so I dunno haha. Based on the video, for DQs it seems like whoever gets hit wins a point and whoever does the damage would technically “lose” and would have to serve 90 seconds for that. That’s at least how it SHOULD be, according to the video.

I don't get the "last person is at a disadvantage" argument. The last person is freshest, so everybody else is weak and it'll will be easier to pin them. Also, it's not like there will be an unlimited amount of pins before he enters. People will still be breaking up pins and such as they don't want their opponent to run up their score.

If I had to guess, there's going some people in this match who don't have the tank for that much match and they'll use the box at least in part to pace out letting people take breaks without lying dead outside

Let me propose "King of the Montaigne". Competitors have to read an essay on why they should be champion.

But he'll have only five minutes and four other people to deal with, the others will have less people and more time. I guess they'll call it a trade off in that regard but if I was a wrestler I wouldn't not want that slot.

Math is hard so I just figured this out too. 00:00 - Match begins with 2 competitors 05:00 - 3rd person enters 10:00 - 4th person enters 15:00 - 5th person enters 25:00 - Match ends

And it's like not it's Braun Strowman vs 4 jobbers. It's 5 guys (or gals) that reasonably could be title contenders. I doubt that there would be a fall in the first 5 minute period. Mayyyyyybe once the third person enters but there needs to be a reasonable amount of time to beat up your competitors so there's not gonna be a crazy amount of falls that you can't come back on. Besides, if you're the fifth person you're the freshest when everybody else has been fighting for 15 minutes, so come in and hit some finishers and rack up points that way.

If the 2 who start the match come to a deal and trade pins every 90 seconds for the first 5 minutes, they will have 2 points ahead everyone else
