#30 If the commentator screams that the match is over, the match isn't over.

 

#27: Never try to powerbomb Billy Kidman.

Also true of Rey Misterio in the Smackdown battle Royal last week!

 

Indeed.

 

#38: Wrestlers in multi man tag team matches will stand on the sidelines when a teammate is getting pinned after getting hit by a finisher.

 

#39: If a wrestler wants to swerve turn on a partner without them knowing, pick the most gullible wrestler around to do it on...Sting.

#45 In a Triple Threat match when you choose to team up with an opponent against the third remaining opponent (making it 2 on 1), watch your back. Chances are your new best friends will attack when you least expect it.

 

#46 In a Triple Threat match one of the three always disappears to the outside for an extended period of time. Nobody knows why he's taking so long, it was only a bump to the outside.

#48 Even the slightest knock or shove will knock a referee out for a good 2-3 minutes, allowing a heel to bring in a chair/belt/manager interferes. Alternatively, the face will cover the heel for a good 10 seconds waiting for the ref to revive, and still no count

This a thousand-fold. Watched Benoit vs Jericho vs Austin from KOTR 2001 yesterday and this ruined the match for me as they seemed to stay outside for decades after the most innocuous of moves. Some Triple Threat bouts do the "one on the outside" deal better than others, but this one really sucked at it.
