Why would any wrestler ever climb the top rope in a battle royal where the object is to throw your opponents over the top rope? You're basically just saying "Hey! Look at me! I'm on the top rope! Knock me off and eliminate me because I'm a dumbass!"
Speaking of top rope moves, has any wrestler ever been DQed for staying on the top rope after the 5 count?
"Hey Batista! Khali is crushing Jeff Hardy's head in the ring. Jeff is not looking good. He needs help."
"Not this again! Good thing I'm always prepared for times like this. Get my pyro and entrance music ready."
"Dave, we have no time. Hardy could get killed out there. Can't you just run out there and hel-"
"What? You know I can't go to the ring without doing my machine gun fist dance to the fireworks and music!"

"Get your ass out there NOW!" |

I second the post about the irish whip. Here's another one (although less common) : The slingshot. Most fake looking move ever. I don't think there's a move where it's more obvious that the recipient is cooperating. What's the point in pretending to be fighting for real if you're gonna do such dumb looking stuff. Iactually did that with my daughter and she flew about 5 feet in the air and landed on some pillows, My wife was pissed ;D How pissed off would your wife have been if you put your daughter in the boston crab until she tapped? |

" Wouldn't it be great if the main event at a Wrestlemania anded because a wrestler stayed on the top rope for too long. Lets use for example one of the Rock/Austin wrestlemania's Jim Ross: the Rock is firing back. This place is electric. Spinebuster. By God Therock is climbing the ropes. He might be taking too much time up there. Lawler: Don't worry about the fans Rock. Mock the fans after you win the title Rock. Jim Ross: 50,000 people are on their feet. They are chanting Austin's name! Crowd: Austin...Austin...Austin The Bell Rings. Jim Ross: What is going on here? Your winner by disqualification due to the Rock staying on the ropes past the five count....Stone Cold Steve Austin! Jim Ross: By God what a historic night. Jim Ross: |

How about Samoans (or basically any South-Pacific "Savage") having these ultra hard heads that had the ability to seemingly be impervious to the effects of any shot to the head, but if you gave them a "double noggin-knocker", it would knock out the two Samoans....since you know....it hurts them.....because they both have hard heads.

Hulk Hogans entire routine. All of it. His vomit inducing promos, his no selling and especially his retarded move set.

Street clothes (especially a suit) are kryptonite. A wrestler in his trunks/singlet can take 50 punches to the head with little to no effect but if he's wearing a suit and you hit him once, he's out!

LOL. To add on to that, any move done outside of the arena is instant death, potentially career ending. Even a simple body slam. Unless it's during a hardcore match... |

If Wrestler X performs a finishing move on Wrestler Y during an interview, backstage, or whatever, it's instant death. Twice.
However, when Wrestler X performs the exact same move on wrestler Y during the PPV match 3 weeks later, it only nets him a two count.

Royal Rumble matches. Why doesn't anyone just slide under the bottom rope, walk to the back and have a hotdog until there's one person left? Lawler tried it once and MvMahon actually won via this method. The one that just killed me last night was that Coach could somehow enforce the booking of a NON-EMPLOYEE in a match against a former WHC. That makes no sense. |

"Evil GM" vs. Face champion.
GM sets up match with face Champion vs. every heel under the sun, moon, and stars, and usually adds some kind of clause to stack the deck against the champ. GM usually fails.
If the EVIL GM is so adamant about his nemesis not being champion then why not, you know........just strip him of the belt?

The position of general manager, which shold probably require a post-secondary education and quite a bit of business savy, can be won in a battle royal.

No matter how long you've known him, no matter if he is blood kin or not, your tag team partner will eventually betray you, and at some point, say "It's all about the title!"

Something I never got, and I guess its because it would probaly become tedious, is why do you pick your opponent up after knocking him down. I got this from Al Snows Shoot, but seriously, if you are trying to get a victory, 1, 2, 3, WHY WOULD YOU PICK HIM UP?? You knock him down then you pin, then you knock him the f*** down again, there isnt even a reason to ever help your opponent back to his feet. You can only win on the mat, so why help him to his feet...

Also it will always be a surprise to the face. No matter how obvious it was to everyone else it was coming They'll engage in a long and brutal feud...and then team up again against a common foe, completely forgetting all of the blood they've spilled and act like nothing ever happened...until the next time they turn on each other. |

Why do refs repeatedly break the 5 count at 3 when when wrestler a is working over wrestler b in the corner or against the ropes?
