Obviously for elimination tournaments you need overtime and tie breaks. If you can’t be ahead on points after 9 minutes, I don’t really care about perfect fairness. Current rules are fine. This to the moon and back. I can't beleive people are in here praising Criteria. Ties for duels. And if you can't figure it out by the end of SV in a tournament setting I don't care about both guys going bottom. One go, winner takes all. Edited February 4 by forkemaz 1

I’m open to other ideas. Maybe shorten the UTB to 20 seconds so an escape is more difficult? Keep alternating sets of 2 30 second periods until 1 person actually has a higher score? I could really get behind Keep alternating sets of two 30 second periods until one person ends a period with more point than the other. it could lead to some 14 minute matches but we’d see guys battle and that’s what wrestlings about!

FanOfPurdueWrestling Posted February 4 Posted February 4 All this thread is showing me is that wrestling could be 5x more entertaining with the right mixture of rules, at the detriment of the wrestlers lol I am very active on X: https://x.com/WrestlingSNL

Have you ever watched a 14 minute match? What about a 14 minute Greco-Roman match? 1 .

I know D1 wrestlers can wrestle for 14 minutes. They may be dog tired but they’ll fight and that would be awesome. I am very active on X: https://x.com/WrestlingSNL
D3UC157 Posted February 4 Posted February 4 (edited) 30 seconds top/bottom 30 seconds top/bottom 1:00 neutral All three periods get wrestled to completion. No sudden victory. Riding time will determine the outcome in a tie after the 1:00 neutral. If riding time is going to be the decider you at least have a chance, after knowing that, to do something. Without sudden victory refs can call stalling without ending the match. Overtime would always be a 9:00 min match barring a pin. Edited February 4 by D3UC157 3

At the 2015 EIWAs one of the placement matches went to triple OT. 13 minutes. Others disagreed, but I thought it was one of the most boring things I'd ever seen, and it held up the tournament a good ten minutes (although it seemed a lot longer). 1

The current system allows for a :01 riding time advantage win. So yeah I guess it’s “legitimate” This way, there is at least a period where you know you’re winning/losing and have an opportunity to not lose due to :01 RT.

I think tennis has a rule that you have to win by two points. We could do that.
