    In the event of swamp ass, use a muffler

    If you have worked for the WWE, in any capacity, and you are future endevoured, then TNA will immediately hire you.

    If you're Anti-Authority, you can count on Kane interfering.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man


    the announce team can never quite figure out where a RKO has come from

    You can receive a title match for simply jumping the champion. You do not need to gain the match yourself.

    You can just moan until you get a title match...brother

    WWE divas are expected to be nothing more than eye candy and time for a p!ss break and crowd free merch shopping at live events. So much so if you're a decent wrestler you can be dressed up in a candy land dress (not that I'm complaining about that one)

    NXT divas are seen as legitimate wrestlers and can have time to have matches/stories. Their matches are seen as co-main events.

    Michael Cole must plug the Network and the App at least once per segment.

    Anything that happens in wrestling can be forgotten in 3 months.

    The ultimate sign of respect is a handshake.

    Ribera Jackets and Zubaz are clothes to be earned.

    UFC is not competition to the WWE...allegedly

    All other wrestling companies exist to the WWE...except TNA.

    All kinds of title belt are made out of the stuff they made Captain America's shield.

    If you are in a Chinese/Japanese restaurant it is your civic duty to piledrive all the staff and go about shouting USA! USA! USA!

    Before driving his foe through an announce table, a wrestler must first remove all monitors from said table.

    In a royal rumble...You must save someone if they are about to be eliminated.

    One must always strive to make Roman Reigns look strong

    in a battle royal it becomes infinitely more difficult to throw someone over the top ropes


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,158 ✭✭✭✭hufpc8w3adnk65


    In a heel vs. babyface tag team match, there must be at least one part of the match where the babyface who is not the legal man must suddenly distract the referee for reasons not fully understood. leaving his tag team partner vulnerable to the inevitable heel double team whilst the refs back is turned!


  • Registered Users Posts: 787 ✭✭✭Deadlie


    If in a tag match you've been bludgeoned for five solid minutes, one last gasp, running crossbody in the middle of the ring will bestow half of the damage you've previously received to your opponent, making things even.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,158 ✭✭✭✭hufpc8w3adnk65


    In a heel vs. babyface tag team match, the baby face team must make all tags within sight of the match official, if the officials back is turned then no tag occurs! However if the heel team want too tag in while the official has his back turned they need simply have the guy outside the ring loudly clap both hands together and the official belives they made a legal tag!

    An ax-handle smash from the top rope just does not work dammit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,256 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    All wrestlers seem to believe a great strategy in a Royal Rumble/Battle Royal match is to get a guy into the cormer and try lifting one leg at at time.

    All winners of the Royal Rumble believe they eliminated 29 other guys, even if they came in at number 30.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,520 ✭✭✭Hashtag_HEEL


    Performers who never do aerial moves will suddenly go to the top rope for a move in a Battle Royal/Royal Rumble match


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 654 ✭✭✭Gerry Rio


    Whilst in the Royal Rumble and after you throw your opponent over the top rope, you dont actually look behind you or stick around to make sure he was eliminated.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,622 ✭✭✭Ruu


    ^^ Many wrestlers celebrate prematurely. :)

    If you're a babyface about to face another babyface at a PPV ye WILL be put in a tag match together and forced to co - exist!!! :O

    Come the end of January every year you must point to the Wrestlemania sign every time you're in the ring.

    If you win the intercontinental title you will lose your next non title match. Doesn't matter who it's against and if it's to push another wrestler or not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,301 ✭✭✭✭gerrybbadd


    Heights in the real world are between half or a third the size of those in the wrestling world.

    If you are arriving by limo, the camera somehow always finds itself at your feet.

    If you get a new car, it will always get destroyed later on that night.

    When transitioning between one segment to the next, Michael Cole will tell us that they are 'switching gears now'

    God Damnit - what had been heard, can never be unheard now!! >_<

    Even though they say they have 2 words for us, DX wll never actually give us those 2 words.

    On Smackdown
    Barrett lost to R-Truth in a non title match!

    You will never be booked as a strong champion if you hold the IC title and will lose 90% of your matches.

    If a guy coming to the ring for a title match does that belt motion around the waist, he always loses.

    HHH never wins at WM when he has a special entrance.

    Only John Cena wins with a special entrance.

    Cena always wins. Always.

    You can't have an episode of WWE television with one of Big Show or Kane. Both will be employed as full members of the roster until they are 148 years old.

    If you are getting over, expect John Cena or Roman Reigns to be shoe horned into a programme with you, in the hopes of leeching your heat.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,301 ✭✭✭✭gerrybbadd


    Wade Barrett never has any good news.

    You will never forget the name of Goldust.

    Booker T can never believe what he has just seen or heard, and will often request that you tell him that he didn't view or hear said event.

    Whenever the Spanish announcers are introduced at the start of a PPV, someone is going through that table later on.
