Glass Smash Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I suppose you could throw an Unsanctioned match into this mix too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCW Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 What was the last unsanctioned match they did? last I can remember was Jericho/HBK a good few years ago, after Michaels had been blinded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4tehlulz Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Think flair and Orton had an unsanctioned fight backstage, pretty sure they hyped it on raw with a graffic screen so I'd count it like the parking lot brawl (Cena/Eddie). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil is brill Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Unsanctioned matches bother me a little because the referee is always a "WWE Official." I think they should have to use an outside party to referee these unsanctioned matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I'd like to see them use WWE Legends as Special Guest Referees a bit more too. Â And managers - I know they're out of fashion, but Flair makes a good manager, as would Bob Orton, Shawn Michaels, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Kat Von D Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) Flair can't be trusted with a live mic, so the most he will do is accompany Charlotte to the ring occasionally (which he already does.) Bob already did a bit with Randy, which ended badly with The Undertaker. Randy doesn't need him any more and it wouldn't make sense putting him with anyone else. Michaels would just overshadow whoever he was managing making it pointless. Â It's not a bad idea, you just picked crap examples Edited December 28, 2014 by UK Kat Von D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Danger Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I used to love Flair losing his shit outside the ring when he was on non wrestling duties in Evolution. I'd be all for coat stomping Flair brightening up Diva's matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winston Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Weirdly looking forward to The Ascensions debut tonight, even though I've never been their biggest fans in NXT. Actually much preferred them when Kenneth Cameron was teaming with Konnor. Â However they're an interesting blend of Kronik, LOD & Demolition and they'll be something new on the main roster and to the non-existent tag division. Appears the only people they can go against is the Uso's considering other legit teams the Dust Bro's and Kidd & Cesaro (now going by The Masters of the WWE Universe) are both heel. Â Apart from that I'm looking forward to the best time of year - The Road to WrestleMania. Be interesting to see if they stick with Roman. As much as I want him to succeed (and think he will eventually) I think it could be a mistake to catapult him right now when he's just not ready. Going to be an interesting Royal Rumble.

Paid Members FLips Posted December 29, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted December 29, 2014 It speaks volumes about the main roster when I'm actually excited about one of the dullest tag teams in NXT debuting with an LOD gimmick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonworden Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Catching up on recorded Raws.  Just so we're clear, what is the difference between a Street Fight, an Extreme Rules match and a No Holds Barred contest?  Nothing much these days really. I always got the impression that No holds barred would originally have been about strangles/rope breaks/illegal moves being ok but weapons not so DQs can happen. No DQ, obvious with Street Fight being an name to promote it more than anything. Extreme Rules was hardcore matches so weapons are encouraged. Cant remember if Extreme Rules had falls anywhere.  Apart from if falls count anywhere they are all the same now really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undefeated Steak Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 They've always been one and the same but I'd prefer slight tweaks in the rules. Â Street Fight - No DQ but match can only be won by pin fall in the ring. Â No Holds Barred - No DQ but match can be won by pin or submission in the ring. Â Extreme Rules (Hardcore match) - No DQ, win by pin or submission anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members GlennCullen Posted December 29, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted December 29, 2014 A street fight that can't be won in the street? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undefeated Steak Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 A street fight that can't be won in the street? Â When do they ever go to a street anyway? I'm just saying that there should be some small differences between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
