Strictly speaking WWE did do an Over the Top, Off with the Top Match twice, albeit under a different name. The December 20th 1999 Raw had Val Venis vs Hardcore Holly with B.B. and Terri respectively in the first ever Holiday Topless Top-Rope Match. Truly, a classic for the ages.

Triple H vs. Kevin Nash... In a Ladder Match... except you didn't win by climbing the ladder. You climb the ladder to get the sledgehammer, which you can then use on your opponent. Miraculously, no quads were torn.

@13kingofawesome

Жыл бұрын

I remember them doing something similar with Swagger and MVP on Smackdown too, also ending in a DQ. But the rules were slightly different and they didn’t have a counter on screen for points so I just assumed they counted as different “matches” despite basically being the same

If you want to watch some actually good "points based" wrestling matches, you need to see the two matches between Taichi and Shingo Takagi for the King of Pro-Wrestling Trophy in New Japan earlier this year. Both are "infinite pinfall" matches, i.e. you don't win on a three count, but the count adds to your total. The matches are slightly different as one is a scored match after 10 minutes and the other is a first to 30 pin-count, but both are qually brilliant in a very surprising matter. Well, surprising if not for the fact that one of the best wrestlers on the planet is involved.

Oh yeah, I watched that match. I think that was on Dominion this year. That's a really cool concept. Also, the KOPW Trophy has a lot of memorable stipulations because that's how you'll fight for the trophy; there's also a 2 pinfall match, a ridiculous sumo match, No Finisher match, etc.. Definitely one of my favorite championships to watch for me.

So much the final minutes were legit edge on your seat wrestling and a great win for Shingo.

Shame it sucks in practice. I like Cody's approach of the top of the cage being something to jump off because it's both crazy and the most logical thing for a wrestler to do when he (or she) is on top of a cage. (P.S. I'm only saying Cody did it first because his match with Wardlow is the only one I can name, but I know it happened earlier.)

Wasn’t the eye for an eye match an excuse for Rey to get surgery on his lazy eye that he covered the wound by wearing an eye patch on one eye?

I blame Spoony for willing the stairs match into existence.

Technically The Ambrose Asylum match would have been done thrice. Because that was the blow off to the Pete Dunn/Tony D'Angelo "feud".

"Holiday Topless Top Rope Match" was the other time Terri was involved in the "Over the Top, Off With the Top" stip with Hardcore Holly as her rep versus Barbara Bush - BB - who had Val Venus. Part of why I recall this is like with the second one, someone - this time being Triple H - spoiled the fun for the audience by blocking the final top removal.

I could’ve sworn Swagger did the amateur wrestling challenge a second time vs mvp

The over the top-off with the top also happened between Val Venus and Bob Holly on Raw once

TO BE FAIR...the House of Horrors match happened one month BEFORE Jinder became champion...

The eye for an eye thing... maybe just temporary blindness? Like have there be mace that has to be used. The idea of clouds of burning mist in the air adds some hazard to things, especially if there is no actual chemical it is just a harmless dye to make the performers look really damaged from the stuff getting all over them... there is something to that.

Love the Jackbox reference

God damn you for making me remember the Mini Royal Rumble match. I went to great pains to forget that.

The amateur wrestling match thing also happened on WWE ECW with swagger as well

I still think that with the right competitors the Punjabi Prison match could be good. They've had Big Show, Jinder, and Khali though. That's an impossible scenario to overcome for any match type.
