Live WWE Survivor Series: WAR GAMES Discussion Thread - Saturday November 26th

I mean the same shit it’s always been lol

you should consider that the match concept has different rules elsewhere and have used content clues that I obviously know that's how the new WWE version is and I prefer no pinfall version. unfortunate I had to spell it out for you but here we are again

 

[Cwalker]

I don’t think making pinfall a viable way to win is that big of a deal. Sure WCW had their way of doing it, but it’s not like the match suffers because it can end via pin.

as I said, simply a preference (my favorite ending is the surrender which is not an option here either)

I don't really think it affects the match as long as we don't have any shitty roll-up finishes at least lol doesn't help that when WCW added pins, it resulted in the worst WarGames matches in history but there were other factors in play there

I mostly just like "submit or surrender" bc its such a badass way to say no pins

 

[Comrade Khan]

as for no pinfalls, I enjoy not having them in this match type because I don't really need pinfalls to break up the action when there is 10 ppl in the ring. def not a big deal though

like with no pinfalls its more of a fight than a match, which I like.

 

[Shane]

Didn’t they used to make JJ Dillon submit in those WCW war games matches lol

Completely understand brother. Didn’t mean to make it sound like I was discrediting your opinion

 

[Shane]

Yeah I mean I think no pinfalls could be better tbh but it’s not gonna like take away from the match at all so whatever.

not at all and I agree with you that it won't make the match worse or anything

I think he was in a couple before they were televised so probably, they used to do them a lot at live events since they weren't on TV so they could just do the same match for different crowds that had never seen them before

It was when there was more money in live gates than TV or even PPV deals, they used to do a whole Great American Bash tour all summer
