I have always wondered this but for some reason always forget to post about it, but now its in my mind.
To kick out of a pin does it require to actually get the shoulder off the mat or just to kick your foot or move or have something happen to the pin.
I always thought a shoulder actually has to get lifted from the mat, but i noticed that only maybe half of kick outs does the wrestler actually get the shoulder up and often the foot kicks and the wrestler moves, but the shoulder doesnt lift.
This is particularly evident in triple threat matches. A lot of times the third wrestler that interrupts the pin hits the wrestler doing the pin and the wrestler is shaken, but still remains on the wrestler he is pinning and the wrestler he is pinnings shoulders are still flat on the mat and it counts as a breaking up of a pin.
So my second question is in triple threat matches to break up a pin is it required that the third wrestler actually knocks the pinning wrestler completely off the wrestler he is pinning or just the fact that he makes any kind of contact with the wrestler making the pin count it as a breaking up of the pin because most of the time the third wrestler hits the wrestler making the pin, but the wrestler making the pin doesnt actually move off the wrestler he is pinning.
