In my day we had two types of matches... One fall and Two out of Three falls. If we were lucky, we got to witness the occasional "Steel Cage" match. You kids are spoiled nowadays. :nono:

I don't think a 5 man iron man match would work out at all...

The ironman gimmick is meant to be like a 'showdown' style of match, it is supposed to show who can survive being beaten up for 1 hour and show the victor. A 5 man iron man match would be too crowded, and it would be way confusing to keep up with the scores.

You know what the best gimmick match ever would be... I figured it out.

Ok, you take two amazing wrestlers (We'll say Eddie and Chris B for example) put them in a wrestling ring. Have them wrestle for a good 45 mins, no weapons, no run-ins, no DQ's, no count outs, just pinfall or submission for an ending. Holy shit, I think that's just to crazy to happen. :(

#1-wwf-fan just gave me an amazing idea...

The match would be the reverse of Two of Of Three Falls, which means...

Three out of Two Falls. :wtf:

But afterwords the match is restarted with sudden death electro cage match rules, at which point JBL rushes in and destroys everyone for the win... Right??? .... Right? :roll:

OMG, now the whole match makes sense! Let's skip all that wrestling stuff and go straight to this! [/Stephanie McMahon/Vince Russo/Half WWE booking team/All TNA booking team]

Or how about midgets running around acting crazy for like... 20 minutes.

Now you're thinking like Russo, all you need to do is make sure there are like 80 swerves and you've got gold!

The Who Can Bleed More match between Eddie Guerrero and Shawn Michaels.

What Would Kevin Do? 06-01-2004 04:05 AM

Actually, we don't even need a match... Let's have a HHH and JBL appreciate show... Hell, let's make it a pay-per-view.

#1-norm-fan 06-01-2004 04:06 AM

Dusty finish to a midget match = Ratings

However, sometimes the matches are good, (IE Jericho vs HHH.)

I have a feeling NWA is going to try to get the match over on the stipulation itself, and not on the talent in the ring. They should be less concerned about constantly working towards the stipulation, and instead they should focus on a great match...

Quick though on the penalty box idea. Do you think that could work for an Iron man match. IF you had a five man iron man match, and upon each decison, whoever lost the decision was removed from the match or a short period of time, would that work?

Yeah, the gimmick of the match shouldn't be the focus. It should be window dressing.

I think that a 5 man iron man match might be a little confusing, but that the penalty box in a situation like this might make for an interesting bit of flavor.

You know, when I saw "Reverse Cage Match", I was thinking the wrestlers start out on top of a Hell in a Cell type cage, and must climb DOWN the ladder and grab the belt...

What about a reverse barbed wire match... Where there's NO barbed wire :shifty:

How about a reverse TLC match... Where instead of climbing the ladder, you must stack chairs and tables and grab the belt and use the ladder as a weapon :shifty:

c4g2 06-01-2004 12:32 PM

Nooo the reverse ambulance match where you have to think up ways to get your opponent out of the ambulance...

The reverse stretcher match, where the wrestler has to nurse his opponent to full health until when he can get off the stretcher.

Goldbird 06-01-2004 12:38 PM

The reverse last man standing match where you have to lie down on the ground when the referee counts for "10"...

Which means you have to make sure your opponent is standing... :shifty:

loopydate 06-01-2004 01:02 PM

I figured a "reverse ladder match" would consist of setting the ladder up upside-down in a "V" shape, but that wouldn't be very sturdy. And you'd be climbing away from the belt.

Also, a reverse TLC would be: climbing a table, putting your opponent through chairs, and hitting brutal laddershots.

LMFAO at this thread, this is great.

When I started watching wrestling we had the same amount of match types, except we had two more... Tag team match and six man tag...

Okay I'm just busting balls now..

But seriously if you look at the guys in this match if they made it just an ordinary ladder match (never thought I'd use the term ordinary and ladder match together) the match would have turned out pretty good... With this stipulation now, it's a crap shoot.

Or maybe you fight to get into the cage....Inside could be a table with all the cakes and donuts in the world and then you starve the two opponents for weeks and release them into the open arena where they fight to get into the cage. Hmmm.....

Nah. If we starve them they'll be too weak to take bumps, and they'd probably share...or worse yet, go across the street to a McDonalds...or worst of all, they could eat...dare I say it....Steph!









....out. :shifty:

Y'know, I think I really would pay money to see that. I mean, that'd be one hell of a spot right there!

Anyways, I'm not getting overly excited about this new TNA match. It's an interesting concept, and they've got some solid workers who might be able to pull it off, but I can't see this catching on. Hey, at least this way they won't have to worry about the belt falling off again and again like the first Ultimate X match.

A reverse Elimination chamber match:

Where all 6 people start in the ring and every 2 minutes one person at random goes back into the little cage.

it says that Killings is the Champ

I thought AJ was

IIRC, Killings won it last week or the week before.

Doesn't matter, Jarrett will win, 'cause he's the most recognizable name (arguably, but this is the way they'll see it) to have at the helm when they debut Impact this weekend.

Savio 06-01-2004 05:28 PM

A reverse Iron man match where ummmm....

Or a reverse pink slip on a pole where you have to get fired to win.

A reverse special guest refree where 2 refree's fight and the wrestlers count for them.

A reverse hardcore match where they can only use pillows and teddy bears making it a softcore match.

A reverse Catch the midget where you have to see who can eat the most cupcakes in 3 minutes, then who can do the best impression of Drew Carey.
