So are "tag ropes" still used? Or has the company phased out?
Just randomly thought of this as I'm watching old matches and they used to use the "tag rope" spot a lot where to be eligible to be tagged in you must be holding the rope. Makes you miss the small things😢

I'm pretty sure they still use the tag rope. I could be wrong though.

They still use it but it's not an enforced rule anymore I don't think. I haven't heard the commentary team mention it, they probably don't have time between putting themselves over and plugging the network or up coming PPV

I'm sure there are tags made without holding the rope, but I think if you pay attention to it you'll notice they use it a lot. Especially when a babyface team is trying desperately to make a tag and the guy on the apron is stretching as far as he can while holding the rope.

They still use it but no one utilises the tag rope as great as Eddie Guerrero did lol

I think, like most rules in WWE, they enforce it when it suits them.

You ever see something in a cartoon that stands out awkwardly? Like say, Homer Simpson wearing a watch? He never wears a watch, but it's there if they need it for a gag. Same as the tag rope, the thirty day title defense rule, etc.
