Official WarGames Match rules for NXT TakeOver
The rules of the match are as follows: - The three-member teams of SAnitY (Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe & Killian Dain), Undisputed ERA (Adam Cole, Bobby Fish & Kyle O’Reilly), and The Authors of Pain (Akam & Rezar) & Roderick Strong will wage war inside a massive steel cage that surrounds TWO rings.
- All three teams will be contained inside separate shark cages by the entranceway, with a member from each team (as chosen by his respective squad) starting the match.
- After five minutes, the remaining members from one team will be released from their shark cage and allowed to enter the match.
- When another three-minute period elapses, the remaining members from a second team are released from their shark cage and enter the match.
- Following another three-minute period, the final team’s members are released from their shark cage and enter the match.
- Once all three teams have entered the WarGames Match, a victory can be attained via pinfall or submission.

So let me get this right... It starts as a triple threat? And then 5 mins after a 3 vs. 1 vs. 1? And then 3 mins later a 3 vs. 3 vs. 1? And then 3 mins later a 3 vs. 3 vs. 3? And ONLY then is a win eligible? I’m just trying to understand the match before I watch it because I’ve never seen it before lol

Could be fun though, I guess.

McBlake yeah, I never watched it either. If it wasn’t for the fact I knew these matches took place in the 90’s I’d genuinely think this was a TNA idea lol

I'm looking forward to the WarGames match. They were always a cluster bleep of fun when WCW did them. One thing I hope they changed is the ceiling on the cage. Either don't have a ceiling or make sure it is more than 8' above the ring. I recall seeing a lot of moves get messed up because of the ceiling. It made a simple suplex difficult and most off the top rope moves weren't even possible; the wrestlers had to dive straight down to avoid hitting the cage.

I’m sure the one at NXT TakeOver will be at a sufficient height. Also, just out of curiousity, what happens to the other ring throughout the rest of the show? Is it used or out of use or something?

IIRC they alternated which ring the other matches were in so all of the front row peeps got their moneys worth for at least half of the night.

I don't really bother with NXT anymore outside of TakeOver shows but I'm really excited to see this! I never actually watched any War Games stuff back in the day so this will be almost a new concept to me. Like watching the first Elimination Chamber at Survivor Series 2002. Coincidentally, Triple H originally pitched the idea of having War Games for Survivor Series that year.

I really enjoy the TakeOver events. Being a WCW lifer I loved hearing War Games was coming back.....This isnt War Games. I dont know if Id go as far as calling it wrestlecrap but this just.....no. War Games needs to be 5 on 5 (or 4v4)...This 3 teams of 3 crap was done once before and it was absolute garbage. Add into that you're releasing teams from shark cages....that's just dumb. War Games can be a gold mine for WWE or NXT IF DONE RIGHT...instead they're going to rig up a brilliant Dusty idea and just totally screw the pooch with it.

Ill wait and see how the match goes vefore i judge it, even though there's no roof on the cage. For me, a lack of roof on top of the cage is not gonna make or break the quality of match. I never was expecting this WarGames to be the WarGames of the past, so im not gonna be disappointed before the match happens. If the match blows, then ill consider the match a disappointment

I hardly watch NXT cause i read the spoilers (and lazy to watch). If theres a roof, awesome. If not, oh well. Im just glad to see WarGames happening. Im fine with WWE wanting to alter the match

Being a WCW kid I'm really looking forward to this, but I mostly made this post to tell you to never change your sig.
