WWF Match Rules

[Million Dollar Man]

New Rules: ***The Admins of WWF: Legends of Wrestling reserve the right to modify the rules at ANY point if they see any rules being abused or "loopholes" are being used in attempt to circumvent the rules.*** 1) Winning via Pinfall. -You can win a match via pinfall in a number of ways. a) Hitting a Finisher. You may attempt a pinfall immediately after hitting your finisher. (This includes using Pin Combo to pin your opponent with your finisher like in the case of Undertaker's Tombstone Piledriver.) b) Pinfall off of Leverage Pin (Ability). You may use leverage pin to pin your opponent provided you have at least hit ONE Finisher and have attempted a pin after the finisher. *Be Warned however, leverage pin REVERSAL is allowed at any time. To be clear, your opponent CAN pin you off a leverage pin reversal EVEN IF they themselves have NOT hit 1 finisher and pinned. c) Pinfall off of a Signature Move... You may attempt a pin off a signature move ONLY if that signature move is a combo pin move (For example: DiBiase's Spinebuster, Mark Henry's Big Splash, etc.) but only AFTER you have already hit 2 finishers in the match and have pinned on each. d) Pinfall by regular pin combo Move... You may attempt to use a regular pin combo move to pin ONLY after you have hit 3 finishers in the match and have pinned on each. 2) Winning via Submission. -Since Submission in WWE 2K14 is easily abused, you are allowed to win via Submission ONLY in one way. -You must have the submission as your FINISHER (Normal and Signature submissions may be used, but you CANNOT win off of one. You must release the hold before the Breaking Point, and you must not simply spam submission moves to maintain control of your opponent.) You may only use your submission finisher provided you have hit ONE other finisher and pinned your opponent off of it. -For people that have ONLY a submission finisher these superstars and THESE SUPERSTARS ALONE, may modify their moveset in the admin approved fashion. 3) Winning via Countout. -You may win a match via countout provided the countout win was NOT on purpose... (Ex. You can't keep your opponent outside the ring beating the snot out of him until the count of 8, and then run back in the ring and watch them get counted out.) Because of this ALL countout wins will be subject to Admin review. If a video of the match exists, then the admins will watch and determine if the countout was on purpose. If no video exists, the members involved will be contacted, and the admins will make a determination based on the best information available. 4) Do NOT spam moves. (Do not use the same move over, over, and over.) -This makes playing the game not fun at all. Play fair and play for fun. 5) In tag team matches the illegal partners must remain on the apron EXCEPT when a pinfall is attempted or a submission finisher is attempted. The illegal partners cannot get into the ring until the pin is being made off a finisher or a finisher submission is locked in. -For example... If it is HBK and HHH taking on CM Punk and Edge. If CM Punk goes for the Anaconda Vice on HHH, HBK can jump in and stop it before the submission is completely applied. The same does not go for normal finishers. When a normal finisher is hit, the illegal partner can only come in when the pin is initiated. 6) Special Referee. -In Special Referee matches if you are the special referee, then you are only allowed to hit one finisher on each participant in the match. -You are limited to 3 times you are allowed to do fast and slow counts for example you can do both fast and slow counts 3 times each and once you are up to those limits then you have to do normal counts and the same goes for if you do not count the pins or ring the bell when someone taps etc, you only get 3 chances of that as well. 7) Steel Cage. -You may ONLY attempt to escape the cage after a finisher is hit. That applies for EVERY time you try to climb out of the cage. 8) Last Man Standing. -For Last Man Standing matches you need to hit a finisher or OMG Moment to allow the referee to initiate the count. Submission finishers are also allowed, so you are able to use your submission finisher, and if your opponent taps out, then you are still allowed to let the referee count to ten. 9) I Quit. -In order to attempt to make your opponent say the words I Quit you need to hit a finisher before you ask them. That means EVERY time you ask your opponent to quit, then you have to have hit a finisher on them in order to ask. -In order to make your opponent quit by a submission finisher you will need to hit one normal finisher before you can attempt to make your opponent tap out. -You are only allowed to use the Intimidation Feature for I Quit Matches once and once only, so make sure you use it wisely. 10) Matches with Managers. -If you are a manager, you are not allowed to run into the ring at all. -If the referee is knocked down and your opponent is out of the ring, you are only allowed to attack him two times. You are not allowed to continue attacking him until the referee gets up even if it is a No Disqualification Match. -You are allowed to distract the referee until you get ejected from ringside, and that includes if your opponent is about to pin or submit the person you are managing. -If the referee is down and you are on the apron and the person you are managing throws his opponent towards you, then you are allowed to pull the ropes down. -If the referee is knocked down or it is a No Disqualification Match, then you are allowed to throw weapons into the ring. 11) There will be NO changing of movesets or abilities unless approved by an Admin. Changes will be allowed depending on alignment, your character's style, and moves he has used in real life. 12) If you quit a match it will be viewed as an automatic forfeit! You will be given a strike and left off the next match card! If it is a triple threat or fatal four way the match will continue without you. If it is a tag team match, your partner may continue the match for your team and win, but you will still receive punishment. However, if the tag match is for the titles your team will not be awarded the championships. 13) In the case of UNBEARABLE LAG... If the lag is so bad that it is causing the match to be super slow, quit the match immediately. If you continue on through the match, no rematch will be issued for a complaint of lag. Lag is something that cannot be entirely fixed, so sometimes you are going to have to deal with the typical amount of lag. 14) Match Scheduling. Once a card goes up, it is suggested that you make a post in the Match Scheduling Board to schedule a time for you and your opponent(s) to do your match. If you make a match scheduling post and your opponent(s) do not respond by the deadline for matches to be submitted, you will automatically win your match. Please, stay in contact with your opponent(s). This is highly important so matches actually get done. 15) Match Results/Descriptions. Whoever wins a match is responsible for either writing their match and sending it to ALL Admins, or videoing their match, uploading it to Youtube and posting it. If the results of the match and the match description is not turned in, then we will simulate the match. Do no take advantage of an opponent in an MD. Yes, you are able to attack them in it if you won the match, but do not disrespect them by doing something outrageous to their character. For the moment, these are the only rules. If more rules come to mind they will be added.
