WWE has announced the rules for the three-team, two ring main event for NXT TakeOver: War Games and while it's a little different to how WCW fans may remember this type of match, it still sounds seriously awesome. Competing in the match will be The Undisputed Era's Adam Cole, Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly vs. The Authors of Pain & Roderick Strong vs. Tag Team Champions SAnitY.
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.
While the two rings being placed side by side has been confirmed, we're still not sure what the covering might look like and whether or not it will go right over both of them. Either way, these rules are going to take some studying but it's clearly going to be a fun match which could help bring War Games back to WWE in a big way. What do you guys think?
