WWE News: Is the WWE Considering Bringing Back a Past Gimmick Match?

WWE: Gimmick Match Possibly Returning to the Company

As evidenced by the WWE's pay-per-view schedule, the company really loves gimmick matches.

And, just when we thought there were too many, WWE officials are considering bringing one back.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there is internal discussion about using the Championship Scramble match for one of the main event matches at a pay-per-view this summer.

For those who've never heard of this match, Wikipedia actually gives a really simple, yet thorough explanation of the bout:

"WWE features a match called the Championship Scramble in which none of the wrestlers are eliminated. Two wrestlers start the match and every five minutes another wrestler enters until all five participants are present. After the last wrestler enters, there is a five minute time limit. Each time a wrestler scores a pinfall or submission, he becomes the interim or unofficial champion, and such reigns aren't recorded as official reigns. Five minutes after the final wrestler enters, the wrestler that scores the last pinfall or submission is declared the winner and the official champion."

It's a unique match to say the least, one that I've never really been high up on. At all.

A guy can enter the match first and dominate throughout the duration of the bout--scoring multiple pinfalls or submissions--, and yet, he can lose the bout in the final five minutes without having any role in the finish.

It just doesn't make sense to me, and I'm not sure such a complicated concept would go over well with fans who've never seen this type of match.
