- WWE officials are talking about doing an instant replay storyline. The idea would be to change things to where the referees can use instant replays to change calls made.

The incident with CM Punk and referee Brad Maddox on Monday’s RAW may have something to do with that.

I guess that would be alright?:urm:

His foot was on the rope way before the 3 count....

I like the instant replay idea, but here's a flaw.
There's been one case of screwing up since this time last year at SummerSlam, again between Punk/Cena.

Overusing a story burns it out sharp.

no. they would just forget about continuity if they wanted to do that.

Also if you're going to use Instant Replay, heels would never win. :lol1:

Not a very good idea, it'll stop them from making some match endings where the ref screws up and/or the heel cheats.

Ending overdone corrupt referee angles = :yay:

Ending dirty finishes, a key part of the wrestling business for years - :dafuq:

This is stupid. It eliminates like 99% of heel endings...

And the endings that do break through will result in "Why didn't the ref just check the replay?". How can heels win matches dirty now?

Chad Patton was the ref involved in the Sheamus story. Brad Maddox is the ref involved in the current wwe title picture

The ref in the main event match is Brad Maddox, he is a former FCW wrestler

Chad Patton was the ref who worked the NoC match, Brad Maddox worked another completely unrelated match on Raw (I don't think you've already watched it), who's involved in unrelated controversy.
