Nah I remember Russo in 99 would fuck them up so often on TV lol

 

[Chris]

Might have only been him tbf bc thats the only specific ones I remember

 

[Death By Looch]

Inconsistence with the Rumble rules, I mean with that.

 

[Chris]

Ah Yeah that's true then

 

[Chris]

They've been pretty refined for awhile, whoever enters the ring once your entrance plays is the entrant if they beat you up on the ramp, once their feet touch the floor they're out no matter how it happened

 

[Chris]

Simple

 

[Death By Looch]

WWE has enough bullshit with match rules still going... and so has pretty much any Wrestling promotion

 

[Death By Looch]

BOTH feet

Lance Storm wants companies to publish official rulebooks bc 1. Nerds will buy the shit out of them and 2. He thinks it'll help actual refs keep dumb stuff from happening somewhat if there's a real book

 

[Death By Looch]

We talk about that now and WWE probably screws that rule this year because of course they would

Eh... yea, that could get some bucks out of a lot of fans, but that won't help with errors happening

 

[Chris]

He once told a funny story once about Vince getting mad at refs being shoot incompetent in like 02-03 and wanted them to acting like they were trying to follow the rules

 

[Death By Looch]

I think, if you take how many matches happen, the amount of errors are so slim, I don't even think it's a problem the business has

 

[Chris]

So then Lance asked....what exactly the rules were, and Vince made JR go home and write them all down to present the next week
