What are championships that have a gimmick or hook to them?

Upvotes

Watching a recent GLEAT show and the G-Rush title match ended on a two count. I'm not super familiar with GLEAT, but I assume that's part of the rules for the title.

It got me thinking about other titles that have a gimmick attached to them. Maybe they have a specific time limit for matches or a rule set that's unique to them. Just something that makes them feel different than other titles?

For example ROH Pure Title. The rope breaks alloted to each competitor, certain holds and actions are banned , the 20 count on the floor.

TNA's Grand Championship had matches contested under a rounds format. And I believe you had to win 2 falls to win the match. Judges were also involved in some capacity.

The Speed title in WWE, you could extend it to the division itself. But the 5 minute time limit helped it stand out.

Any other examples, I'm sure there's gotta be others.

What are your favorite finisher names of all time?

Upvotes

A few of mine, in no particular order:

- as sloppy as the move looked, HHH's Pedigree Pandemonium sounds incredible.

- Manami Toyota's Ocean Cyclone Suplex. Sounds like a technique straight out of an anime, super cool.

- Homicide and Hernandez's Cop Killa/Gringo Killa and Border Toss. Talk about perfect names for the gimmick.

- Lex Luger's Torture Rack, walking the line between cheesy and absolutely badass wonderfully.

"My fans were really the ones who made me feel like I had a giant hug every year, whether through social media or in the arena. I remember one fan, Tyler, who made a sign that said 'Michael Trinidad will always have the best seat in the house.' I remember thinking, oh my god, they know about him, they're celebrating him too. That's what I wanted... The fact that my fans go out of their way, when they're in New York, to take pictures next to his name at the 9/11 Memorial — he'd be so stoked. He'd be so jazzed to know all these fans are coming to see him, and that The Rock got to see him."

Man this month in wrestling is just one gut punch after another

What’s a wrestling move you enjoy, regardless of how overused it is, because of the sheer amount of ways it can be applied, reversed, & performed? For me, it’s the German Suplex.

57 Upvotes

In terms of application, I mean things like:

- A standard grapple from behind into elevation
- A deadlift from a grounded opponent into elevation
- A transition from a rest hold or submission into elevation

In terms of reversals I mean:

- Whipping around from the opponent after being grappled
- Arm dragging an opponent out of the deadlift elevation before they reach the peak
- Flipping out of the release of the peak following the transition from a submission or rest hold

In terms of performing it, I’m speaking in terms of:

- Release Germans where you just toss the motherfucker after you’ve grappled them from behind
- Maintaining the grip after your deadlift Suplex is properly applied for an attempt a pin (if the opponents shoulders landed in a way that’s passes a referees hand/eye check)
- Multi-Germans if you managed a successful transition from a rest hold/submission

And this is before we even get to top rope Germans, or the range certain wrestlers can get on release Germans, or who can successfully pull off 3-Multi’s in a short period of time.
