Over the past few months there has been talk of WWE adapting a new match style.This would entail the ref's not knowing the finish of the match meaning that he would call every pin properly.If the superstar forgets to kick out too bad for him.Now this would also mean we would see no more match endings where the ref is distracted and the other guy used the chair behind the ref's back.Now3 some people may say good because that finish happens too often.Well I agree but I think sometimes its needed.....Anyways do you think this should be the new way and WWE should do it or do you like it as it is?

Well....If there is gonna be a tainted finish like a DQ or a Count out....then the refs have to know this....but What I heard is that in Singles House show matches....they would test it out...Its a good idea for house shows ...but not live shows on TV.

I think the idea is to keep the wrestlers and refs from getting lazy/keep them on toes/focused at house show matches, not a TV show based idea, at least thats how I understood the recent talkings.

No, this would screw up alot of storylines if the person that is supposed to get over didn't kick up in time. There would also be alot of complicated endings and the wrestlers wouldn't know what to do.

Uh... yeah this is a very, very stupid idea. I'd like to see possibly where this was EVER proposed or even considered by Vince, because I'm 95% sure it wouldn't be... this would take the entire professionalism out of wrestling and you would just go to the ring and pray things work out well.

It's hardly a new 'style' is it? It's just that a different attitude is applied to the way in which the officials handle/call the match.

Well think of it like this:

They put this rule into effect and then not even a week after Melina accidently loses the Women's title to Mickie James.

It's a fun experiment but I see it causing too many problems; more specifically in the main event feuds.

I think this would be a pointless idea. At least 60% of WWE viewers and wrestling fans in general are under the age of 16. Especially children in general. They don't about "K-A-Y-F-A-B-E". The only reason to do this would to give the internet community (ie. US), some sort of new idea of how matches turn out.

But still a fruitless & pointless idea, nonetheless...

Yeah I agree maybe for house shows...But for television tapings and PPV's ??? Forget it. The Ref acts as a timekeeper and therefore would probably have to know the results for the matches to 'end on time'
