haha okay thanks for the answers.

If done with intent to harm it can hurt the leg that is trapped, the back, the neck and the throat (choking).

Get it done to you and find out lol.

^LOL i didnt have someone try that to me yet but i did get the Sharpshooter done on me.

My guess would be to tell them to lighten the pressure of the hold.

[Gary]

sorry if this is the wrong section, didn't really know where to put this, but I've always wondered why wrestler tap their shoulders while in a hold like a headlock. Is it a sign to lighten up, or what to do, or what. I was watching Beniot/Punk vs Burke/Cor Von, and noticed that both Punk and Benoit are constantly tapping their shoulders while in a headlock or other hold. Just wondering if anyone knew why. thanks.

It's probs a signal to go (run the ropes)
Jake and others used to tap the back as a ''go!'' for the ddt.
Maybe that?

It also hurts the head as the opponents arms trap the blood supply to the head which will give you a headache and also may knock you out.

Two questions.

Ladder matches, why do people only climb up about two or three steps then reach for the belt when its clear as day they can't grab the belt from where they're standing?

And if you didn't already know, Batista has the most pyro out of the Raw and Smackdown sets.
But Edge just got some which is a shitload of pyro.
So does Edge have more pyro than Batista now?

The point of that in a ladder match is a sign that they're going to get knocked off or the other guy is coming up the other side of the ladder. They do this because otherwise they'd have 3 minute ladder matches.

As for the pyro, Batista gets more because his goes on longer. In WWE magazine a while back, they said Batista gets more pyro than anyone else because of his "machine gun" thing he does during his entrance.

Here's a question. Referees back in the day used to count to five whenever a wrestler got on the top rope meaning he has 5 seconds to get off the top rope the same way you have a 5 count to break a hold when your in the ropes.
Anyways, here's the question...has a wrestler ever gotten disqualified for staying on the top rope for more than a five count?

[Strawberries & Cream]

Yeah Batista's pyro does go longer but Edge just has shitloads of it though.

To add suspense, so the crowd gets a ''Oh yes, he's gonna get it'' felling, or the opposite for the heel, it's a rollercoaster match.

Edge's lasts longer now and I'm pretty sure he's got more, don't know the stats, just basing it on what I see.

I guess it probs has happened at some point back in the day, but not that I can recall.

[Strawberries & Cream]

Cheers for the replies.

Also Finlay was disqualified for choking Matt Hardy on the rope for more then five seconds in his debut match on Smackdown.
Thats the last one I can remember.

[4 Gold Scorpio]

^^^That wasn't a DQ for staying on the top rope for more than 5 secs. though.

[Strawberries & Cream]

Oh shit, I read the question wrong.

[The Undertaker]

A wrestler may have, but as long as I have watched, I haven't seen it, and as we know, people like Kane stay up their for half a minute at times.

Here's a question: What will WWE do with Taker when he retires, and how will he affect WWE/what will he do for WWE after the wrestling career is over?

[SuCK69]

Taker will probably be used offscreen as a trainer or road agent or just retire altogether from wrestling and get a new job

It's basically up to him for what he does after he retires
