View Full Version : What gimmick match are you craving a return for?

In my opinion, I'd say it's been WAYYYYY too long since we've had ourselves a good old fashioned 60 minute iron man match in the WWE. The last one we got was less than stellar in John Cena and Randy Orton, fast forward to WWE in 2013.

This roster is awesome.

And there's so many good rivalries that could benefit from having them go the distance.

John Cena vs. CM Punk, CM Punk vs. Daniel Bryan, Daniel Bryan vs. Dolph Ziggler, Dolph Ziggler vs. Kofi Kingston, Kofi Kingston vs. Antonio Cesaro, Antonio Cesaro vs. Seth Rollins, etc. could all be instant classics if given that much time, just think of what they could do.

What matches do you wanna see this year?

It would have to include two top dogs. No way does anyone like Cesaro or Kofi or even Ziggler at this point get an hour long iron man match. Cena vs Punk would work but that rivalry has been done to death.

The easy answer is War Games. I think people have been clamoring for that for a while now.

I'd love to see a Hell in a Cell match where the ceiling isn't 50ft high. The old-school cell felt a lot more claustrophobic and "gritty". The modern one is just a standard cage match with a huge-ass ceiling.

Also, not really a "return", but I'd love to see a multiple-contender Iron Man match, where the same principle applies that whoever gains the most pinfalls/submissions wins. I guess the match would have to include more than one ref, but would be great to see CM Punk vs. Daniel Bryan vs. John Cena vs. Antonio Cesaro in a match like this.

Loved that Scramble ppv they did where whoever got the last pin after 15 minutes was the champ. It was so exciting.

Elimination Chamber is the closest thing we'll ever see to War Games. Also anything with more than one ring is retarded.

Besides, even if you do have some weird hatred of more than one ring, it's not like the second ring is really necessary for the gimmick. A tag team Elimination Chamber match would basically be War Games with one ring.

I think it'd be fresh and unique to have some mid carders like Cesaro and Kingston go at it for 60 minutes, especially after their main event match. But i'd also love to see some main eventers have one too. After their cage match at Extreme Rules it'd be fun to see Triple H and Brock Lesnar settle their feud in a 60 minute iron man match.

Tom Guycott
05-05-2013, 12:01 AM
An ECW style 3 way dance, where the first guy pinned simply gets eliminated from the match, and the bout continues with the two left. Bonus points if it's for a championship and the champion is the first one ousted. The ex champ has extra fuel to bitch about being screwed, and the new champ can brag about beating two guys in the same night.

Because they hated each other and Punk wanted to get his hands on Jericho. A dog collar match is violent, and they're collared together, which makes sense.

Right but they can't bleed so that takes away some of the violence, a strap match would do the the exact same thing without the need for blood. Or why not something more suited like an I quit match, since both guys utilise submission finishers or a last man standing since they 'hate each other'.

Both CM Punk and Daniel Bryan have been in numerous Iron Man Matches and Dog Collar Matches throughout their ENTIRE careers (not just WWE.) When Cena and Orton had their iron man match they made it falls count anywhere to spice it up. Hell, Orton tried to blow up Cena with the pyro. So I'd assume WWE would want to add a gimmick that both Punk and Bryan would be familiar with and comfortable with, one that they know how to have a good match with and could do so for 60 minutes, a dog collar match.

It's not my fault you don't want to see a dog collar match and I do, stop whining.

I'd love to see them put any stip on an iron man match though. Hell In A Cell Iron Man Match sounds incredible. As does an iron man strap match, and an iron man ladder match, where you take the belt (or whatever) down and the ref puts it back up and you go at it for an hour, most times taking it down wins.

whiteyford
05-11-2013, 10:43 AM
All you're suggesting is how to kill a gimmick match. These are supposed to brutal arduous matches and your idea is lets make them last an hour and have multiple pinfalls? What's next, an ironman last man standing match?
