Rules are meant to be broken!! except for these, so make sure to read them (a few changes compared to series 2)
-
Spoilers:
All shows, both events and TV shows, will now have the 7 P.M. spoiler rule, this is to make sure no one gets anything spoiled.
For events/PPV's, we'll plan on making separate posts so people who are watching live can discuss the show as its happening and drop there thoughts and opinions before 7 P.M. but ONLY in that designated post.
-
Titles:
The rules for titles don't change, but we do get a few extra titles:
24/7: the title is still a belt, for what its worth. But, you only get points in actual matches, that's from bell to bell. Backstage segments where the belt changes hands are no longer counted.
This, in all honestly, is simply because its pain to keep track off.
The Diamond Ring: the Diamond Ring is not a belt, but it is a price that's fought for and therefor counts as a title.
The FTW is not a title that's really being used by AEW as a competitive title, but, its still a title and therefor counts as title
With the forbidden door, it sometimes happens that a non-AEW title is defended on AEW shows. However, since we don't track those titles or follow the companies exclusively, they count as normal matches, not title matches
We also won't count AEW title defenses in other promotions.
-
League Tables:
We are dumping the tag titles, but we are getting a second belt to fight over, the European title.
As always, the world title is awarded, every month, to the person at the top of the leaderboard, starting off with season winner Jonny.
The European Title is awarded to whoever scored the most points in any given month (regardless of there ranking on the yearly board).
-
formatting:
Every team must have a team name, you are allowed to change your name before the start of the season.
No more team colors
-
Teams:
minimum 5 men per team
minimum 2 women per team
remaining 3 spots can be filled to your leisure
If a wrestler is injured, fired, on hiatus or otherwise no longer available, you'll be stuck with them until the next draft.
-
counted shows:
WWE shows:
every PPV, including one offs like Tribute to the Troops
Raw
NXT
Smackdown
AEW Shows:
every PPV
AEW Dynamite
AEW Rampage
we will hold special event weeks for extra shows, completely at random. think of Main Event, 205 Live, AEW Dark and AEW Elevation, but these are completely random. When we count those shows, its announced on the Sunday for the week that follows (see this as a bonus, not a strategy to base your team off, as the weeks counted will be inconsistent).
-
Hope this is all clear, its a long read, but the changes should be refreshing without being to invasive. If Dan and I find out this keeps the league unbalanced, we might change things, but for now these are the rule changes going into series 3.
