What, if any, do my fellow promoters use to keep belts from being “hot potatoes” in their feds?

Never been a fan of the rule. I treat my GWF/legends feds as “shoots”: let the dice decide who the best man is. It’s a shoot

If the champion rolls "PIN" on defense, I give him two chances to kick out. If the opponent hits his finisher, I play normally (only one roll).

Two chances to roll kick out. Also, simple enough..space the title matches a bit.

I wouldn't call it a "Champion's Advantage" rule, but I do incorporate a rule into my USWA that allows for title matches to go a little longer and hopefully avoid quick fluke finishes. I believe Stu Lowry gave me the suggestion about 10 years ago that a championship match couldn't end before one wrestler's PIN rating hits "5." I use this for my USWA World, World Tag Team, and Southern title matches. I occasionally use it for the Mid-America title too, if it's main eventing a card. I will still get one-sided title matches from time-to-time, but overall, this tends to extend the matches and makes them seem like the best matches on the card.
I do allow DQs or countouts to occur before the PIN rating gets to "5," to allow for the possibility of title rematches.

I've never been a fan of custom rules for title matches/champion's advantage... But this is interesting. I will give this some consideration. Thanks for sharing! |

Don't use it. I go with what the dice give me and try to figure it out from there.
But I totally understand why promoters would want to use one.
Honestly, if I were to implement a champion's advantage it would probably be more along the lines of lowering their PIN by 1.

I lower their pin by 1, and give them 1 "second chance" kick out attempt.
