IIRC someone once posted that Bruno Sammartino would win cage matches via door escape by beating the other guy half to death, and then calmly sauntering through the door. That's the only time a door escape has ever sounded like a satisfying conclusion to a cage match. Shine fucked around with this message at 03:06 on Mar 7, 2021 |

Shine posted:The only way to escape is to climb the cage! Or ask the ref to open the door, I guess. I remember a cage match he had with Zbyszko basically ending like that. He eventually overpowers Zbyszko, batters the poo poo out of him, is on his way out, but makes sure to give him one last punch to finish the job, and then he leaves.

Door escapes in cage matches are absolute boring bullshit 100% of the time and I’ll die on this hill. Don’t give me that “it’s because the cage is to stop the cowardly heel running away so a face climbing over the side makes no sense” poo poo, the entire point should be that in order to win you have to beat the other guy so badly that he can’t stop you from climbing out of the cage.

All cage matches should be regular no dq matches, the cage should have a roof and should be the blow off for a feud in which someone keeps escaping their comeuppance. Also no one should ever be able to interfere. That includes Kane and Big Show

I'm on team climb out of the cage. In fact, that should be the ONLY way to win. No pinfall or DQ or going out the door. You gotta go over the top.

Escape rules are bad. Cages are structures that are good for providing space for cool spots and escape rules make those spots seem dumb.

A good cage match should be a contained last man standing match, basically.

There should be a cage match where initially the heel tries to flee but then the face says “oh you missed the fine print in the contract for this match” and then a roof descends and it’s actually helllll in a celll

How about having a cage, and then putting a Hell in a Cell structure around it, and then having a bunch of dogs running around in between the two cages? It can't possibly fail! Seriously though: "escape rules = all bad" is not entirely fair, when it comes down to the manner in which it's applied. The Bruno v. Zbyszko cage match works really well because it's built around the winner battering the other down to the point where they can no longer capable of fighting, and then leaving. What I'm trying to say is, it comes down to how the rules of the match are used in the story that you're trying to tell. edogawa rando fucked around with this message at 02:46 on Mar 7, 2021 |

Can we stack two or three cages, and then have two guys battle about 7 or 8 guys who have formed some sort of alliance to end something?

Where wrestling is now, cage matches only exist for someone to do a death defying leap off the top onto their opponent instead of leaving and winning the match. So every cage match has a spot where the good guy reveals that he is brave, and a little bit crazy, and also very dumb.

So every cage match has a spot where the good guy reveals that he is brave, and a little bit crazy, and also very dumb. This was a specific game mechanic in the PS2 Smackdown games. When you reached the top of the cage, your character would stand there for a moment, and you could press a button to leap onto your opponent. Or press nothing and after a second or two you'll just climb down the back and win, but where's the fun in that? Now I'm remembering when Rikishi cage splashed Val Venis. Christ.

Basically the Dragon Gate Dead or Alive match, which is a six man cage match with five flags at the top. You grab one to escape and the last person left loses either their hair or their mask. Lots of unit shenanigans.

the cage should be made out of solid plastic, and the wrestlers have to sit in the corner chewing on it for quite a while until a hole forms and they can escape the cage. the promoter's parents have to find the wrestler dead underneath something later on and never tell the promoter that they found it
