RVD/Cena: Sorry for marking that as minor. I must have gotten in a rhythm or something. It is in fact a major edit, please fact-check and scrutinize as necessary. --EazieCheeze 18:54, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Road Warriors in Chicago

Actually, it was the Warriors that were disqualified for clotheslining the Horsemen over the top rope wile the ref was down. The Warriors scored a pinfall moments later with the Doomsday Device, but the original ref "woke up" and disqualified the Warriors for the clothesline.

Avoiding a Dusty Finish?

There were numerous times during Triple H's various WWE championship reigns where he would deliberately provoke senior referee Earl Hebner in an attempt to get disqualified. Hebner would often raise his hand as if calling for the bell, then look at Triple H and shake his head as if saying, "No, I'm not going to let you keep the title by DQ."

Does this fall under the "Dusty Finish", and should it be included in this Wiki?--Insley 03:41, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it belongs.

Royal Rumble 2005

I thought this was a botched finish. I'll try to find a source, but I remember hearing that the whole thing with Cena and Batista going over the top at the same time was never supposed to happen and Batista was supposed to be the outright winner the entire time. Does this ring a bell for anyone else? Nosleep1234 10:51, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

According to Meltzer, it was a botched finish. Batista slipped when eliminating Cena and the match had to be restarted. This is explained in the 2-5-07 issue. Zackarcher 00:27, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
