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?

^This.

I'm afraid we're going to get stupid shit like a referee not checking replay after Sheamus wins the way he did at Summerslam... and it would be okay because "ADR deserved it".

Can understand wanting to treat wrestling like a sport like many fans do, and guaranteeing clean finishes, but when you're competing with a real, legitimate sport in MMA you need to show what separates pro wrestling and makes it enjoyable.

I'd like to see a company like ROH try this, where they love competition and clean finishes... but not WWE. This just screams Vince seeing what's going on in the sports world and copying it in a desperate plea for mainstream acceptance.

Wasn't Brad the one who got the call wrong last week on RAW? Chad is the one who worked NOC.

They could have changed his name.

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.

Ah yes my illiteracy has gotten the best of me again. My apologies.:haha:

I know right. Expect Orton. If Face or Heel he beats people clean all the time. :notsure:
