Punches now being Legal: Really doesn't change anything at all, seeing as everyone has been using punches for years now anyways.
Choking with the hands or using the ropes to choke now automatic DQ: Well, I don't exactly like the sound of it, but I guess it will cause these actions to get more of an reaction from the crowd now.
Eye poke or rakes now DQ: This part however, I don't agree with at all. Eye Rakes have always been just a warning from the ref for as long as I can remember, why is that suddenly a DQ now? Hell, I've seen plenty of faces use Eye Rakes too, so are we gonna start seeing all them getting DQ'd too?
But that's not even that bad compared to the last thing.
Throwing someone into the ringposts outside the ring now DQ: Just... WTF?! I honestly can't remember throwing people into the ring post, inside, or outside the ring, ever being frowned upon by referees. I take it throwing people into the ring post from the inside of the ring is still legal though? How does that make any sense?
I wounder how long it will be until we get going to the top rope banned now... :shifty:
