I hate when a wrestler completely changes his wrestling style simply because he becomes a face. And I am not talking about cheating.
In 1994 and 1995 Shawn Michaels was gaining popularity as a heel. Yeah, he cheated, but not always. He was putting on excellent matches even at house shows. I'll never forget being at a house show at the United Center and these two huge guys who looked about the size of Harlem Heat were sitting in front of me. The moment Michael's music hit, they got up and started dancing like crazy. It was wonderful.
Then, they turned Michaels into a face and completely changed him. He became a Hulk Hogan clone of getting his ass beat in the match only to have the inevitable super comeback. It never made sense to me why they do this because he was gaining popularity due to his wrestling and character, so their solution is to make them a face, change their wrestling style and then change their character. Idiotic.

Actually, scratch that. Just get rid of the "walking through the door" shit as a whole. There's no way you can sell this shit without looking awful, just make climbing the only gimmicky way to win and be done with it.

There are many for me but 2 stand out the most:
1)So many matches won by roll up pin.
2)And matches won by distractions.

How about in no DQ matches when a wrestler in a submission hold gets to the rope, the ref calls for a break and the aggressive wrestler actually breaks? Rope breaks are completely nonsensical in no DQ matches.
In multi man elimination matches when one wrestler breaks up a pinfall. It's an elimination match- you should be happy with somebody getting eliminated, it's kind of the point.
