Was looking for someone to comment this lol

Might be a difference between hanging on them and standing between them, like you can't purposefully attack an opponent while they're transitioning in/out of the ring.

Any move from the top rope is technically illegal

There are exceptions

If we really need to get technical. You actually are not even supposed to leave the ring at all (hence the 10 count). In the past during the territorial days, people in the audience would be handed a pamphlet that listed all the rules, and so heels would get out of the ring to get heat. This works the same with moves, but the count is 5 instead of 10. Any moves on the ropes are technically illegal (just like in boxing) but you get that 5 seconds grace period. Considering that a 619 takes like a second at most, it's still within that five seconds tolerance. These rules are still in force in the WWE to this day, but you don't get a pamphlet anymore, so most of the time you just infer them from what's going on in the ring. The crazy thing though is that the WWE really hasn't changed the rules much. What's changed is how often wrestlers actually follow the rules.

Cena Chainsaw Massacre

God that'd be so useful

Yeah since it’s drags on tag matches in 2K games

What if you’re the one getting pinned? Then your tag partners consistently breaking the pin comes in handy for greatly diminished pin meters.

​@@MistahJ1940 Finally a smart one

@@MistahJ1940 For me I usually let the Ai play and tag team matches go on for way too long because they keep breaking up the pins with no chance of ending the match

that's an exception

So right!

​@@dasportyyamper3798 So im guessing Randy Orton's Spike DDT is an execption too huh

@@ericmonaco4509 another one right

Well.. Mysterio is actually jumping on opponent in the ring right after hitting 619.

That rule actually existed before during the old school rasslin territories era of wrestling. Back then, high impact moves weren't too much so the worst move a person could do back then was throwing someone onto concrete. It was also used for giving heels heat by throwing the babyface over the rope. Back then, it was a great rule that can be utilized greatly like using it to end matches when a wrestler gets injured and without over-usage. But as time passes, the rule didn't age well and it shows when Bill Watts brought it back for WCW. He tried to make WCW "old school" but it didn't work since it was 1992 and the stuff he did didn't work and aged well. Especially since they had just made the Cruiserweight title and had guys like Pillman and Liger.

It’s not stupid because it’s a rope break

I think cena is about done. He looked pretty winded in his last 2 matches. Maybe he was just out of shape or age is catching up with him.

Only now they changed it to Dean Ambrose

Wwe:You can't hit some on the ropes Rey Mysterio:61 sh

How do U know

Similar to Al Snow Rick Rude jumped the gun in 1990 .

Honorable Mention: Apparently, the usage of foreign objects in the Rumble is also illegal. They were used in the past, before being quietly abolished.

@@kidz4p509 From 1998 to 2003 weapons were certainly in use aplenty . Before that they were used sparingly such as when Honky-tonk Man choked out Hulk Hogan with Hogans own T shirt in 1990 and Ahmed Johnson chasing out Farooq with a 2x4 . I don't know if snakes are weapons but Jake Roberts used them in 1989 and 1996 .

That doesn't make sense. If there's no rules then a rope break isn't gonna count

@@KDB349 It does, though. If you can't pin someone outside the ring, then you can't touch the ropes.

@@bamweasel Why would you ever release your submission in a no DQ match because of a rope break? There's literally no reason to.

@@garcon45 because it isn’t a legal fall. The 5 count to DQ may not be in effect, but the defined boundaries of the ring still are.

@@bamweasel That's not a reason to break the hold.

Big Show: "Hm, strange. I didn't hear the bell ring. Oh well."

the big show was never in the match. he wasnt part of it. he just went in and threw everyone out. He was trying to get Vicki's attention

That’s what the 24/7 title was

Also big show wasn’t actually in the match. And he was only interim WWE champion and no recognized as a real champion

And also many guys who had Alchohal problems in the past guys like Scott Hall, Jake the Snake and Road Warrior Hawk just to name a few plus also Because its PG

No it existed before him. Austin obviously only drank on screen because of his character. There was one exception and that was Andre the Giant

@@ericmonaco4509the rule existed before then. Only Andre the giant was given an exemption because it was the only way for him to cope with his pain

And Rey mysterio 619💀
