We could use the rule that we use in EIF, where you can't manually do a leverage pin. You can only win off of a reversal into a leverage pin, like someone runs at you and you reverse into a School Boy. That would fix the problem of people using it out of desperation, but still allows someone to steal a victory.
Edit: Another example of a reversal leverage pin would be if someone pins you with a Style's Clash and you reverse the pin into one of your own.
Another thing that I think should be let back in is using the ropes for leverage in a pin. You can only do it once or twice, therefore it's not like someone can abuse it. The two rules I would just add onto it is that 1) you can only use the ropes to pin if you are a heel and 2) you can only use the ropes to pin as long as you don't have to drag your opponent to do so (meaning your finisher has to get them in the position that you would be able to use the ropes).
The reason for those rules would be obviously that you don't really see faces using the ropes to get a victory and that you never see a wrestler drag their opponents over to the ropes in order to use them. They only use it when their opponent lands near the ropes

Also think that Faces and Heels should have exclusive abilities. Heels could have ring escape, dirty pin and well anything else that's dirty while the faces would have comeback and something like Resiliency level 3 or something else very baby-face like. I wouldn't as well if we banned Move Thief or at least limited it to PPV's. I find it really stupid when someone steals your move and wins off it on a normal show. I look at that as an OMG moment personally.
That is a great idea!
Abilities/Skills Restricted to Faces:
-Resiliency Lvl 3 -Comeback -Fan Favorite
Abilities/Skills Restricted to Heels:
-Dirty Pin -Ring Escape -Turnbuckle Removal
As for Move Thief, I do agree that it needs to be restricted, as it happens too often.

If we are restricting things, we have to have more than just comebacks being something that Heels can't use, otherwise it's unfair. Therefore, I think that restricting Resiliency 3 to Faces, meanwhile Heels only being able to use Level 1, is a fine and fair idea.
I believe that everyone in the league has a different finisher, so I don't think there really needs to be a rule on the matter.
Edit: Maybe we should add in something on the chatboard in order to keep track of finishers though, that way people see what ones are already being used, and it would also be a way to make sure we don't have anyone changing their finishers too much (changing them 2 or 3 times throughout the year is fine, but more than that is kind of ridiculous, as it is a signature maneuver of your character)
Absolutely agree. Majority of people's finishers is like some Indy darlings move and then we have the odd case of some people who have a super kick. I don't think anyone's finisher really stands out with the exception of my falling dropkick (Yeah get mad nerds) and H's BWS. I feel like we can do something with finishers as well. Another thing related to that I'd like to add is that if we pick a finisher we stick with that finisher. No changing that move within 2 weeks. Now if it's been 2 months I understand but I'd just like if people stick with what they have. Another thing I'd like to add onto that would relate to catching finishers. To me it just doesn't make sense if you're doing a catching F5 or Super kick or Spear if none of your sigs or finishers are any of those moves or somehow related to those moves. I'd like to see that changed too.
