Comprehensive List Of Banned Moves During WrestleMania Weekend

The Deadspin has released an article detailing what is banned in Louisiana for wrestling events. It’s being noted due to the huge week of wrestling next week because of WrestleMania. It’s worth noting that WWE and ROH are exempt from these rules, due to being “major league promotions.”

Although there were no rules listed on the commission website regarding the banning of piledrivers, Commission Secretary John Green, Jr. sent a redlined version of the rules. This was dated 2017, and included the following banned wrestling moves:

1. All variations of the Pile Driver;

2. All variations of the Power Bomb;

3. The “Moonsault”, “Shooting Star”, or “450 Splash” or any variation thereof which involves one wrestler, leaping or flipping off the ropes or turnbuckles to contact the head or neck of the opponent with any part of his body;

4. The “Stungun” of any variation thereof which results in the one fighter’s head or neck being dragged, draped or “closelined” [sic] across the ropes;

5. The striking of a wrestler’s head with any object, chair, trashcan [sic] lid, etc., and

6. No wrestler shall throw, push, shove or force another out of the ring or over the top rope.

While these moves are banned, there is another section that states,

“The Commission Official may, at his sole discretion, allow wrestlers to perform prohibited holds, moves or maneuvers listed above, provided permission is sought and obtained prior to the event by both wrestlers and the requesting wrestlers have sufficient training, athletic ability and experience to perform the maneuver without endangering one another.”
