ALL OTHER CARDS...-If you are required to identify this card for an effect (i.e. Cole Calls It Right!, etc.), either "ellipses" or "dot dot dot" will suffice.
12 Rounds-The F:12 is thematic, you do not need to have 12F to use this card's effect.
Accompanied by Beulah McGillicutty- This effect cannot be used with a
Panic card in any way.
- When the Foreign Object is successful (for effects like
ECW One Night Stand), but since it resolves to the Ringside, the text has no effect (unless specified, as
Dreamer's Kendo Stick does).
Again With This Crap?! (Throwback)-This card will reverse a card that has been played more than once in the same turn, or a card whose title exactly matches a card played earlier in the turn.
-This card cannot ignore reversal restrictions from a card with the Restricted Modification Symbol, but it can ignore the restrictions imposed by the Chain trait.
A Poem From the Genius-This card uses strict rules of rhyming. Words may not rhyme with themselves, even buried into compound words. "Kick" and "Superkick" do not rhyme, and neither do "lock" and "headlock", for example.
Backed by Melina-You may use the reveal effect of this card even if it is hidden.
Backed by SmackDown! GM Vickie Guerrero-Vickie's protection for SmackDown! maneuvers modifies the opponent, not the maneuvers, so it cannot be removed with
Restricted Use in This Area.
Backhand Slap (Throwback)-The Godfather may still play this card to reverse a card that cannot be reversed.
Bionic Kicking Machine-Despite the fact that this card has the Restricted Modification Symbol,
Restricted Use in This Area can still remove the modification it applies to
Patented Austin Kick to the Gut.
-Revolution Stone Cold Steve Austin cannot pack this card.
Bourne to Fly-Evan Bourne may play this card during his turn even if all of his Pre-match Capacity is spent, even if his Ability is blanked and his Superstar-specific Pre-matches take up slots again, because Pre-match Capacity only matters during the Pre-match phase.
Breaking Ground-Cannot be put into Ring in response to effects that cannot be responded to.
Carlito Says, "That's Not Cool!"-This card is fully functional when overturned, thanks to its new wording.
This is a reversal of a previous ruling.-This card can reverse a chain card, but will not disregard the Chain trait, as it is not a card, but a trait.
-
Carlito only ignores reversal restrictions from the card that it is reversing. Outside restrictions, like
The Title's On The Line!, cannot be ignored.
-Maneuvers with conditional reversal restrictions (reversal restrictions that are only active if a certain condition is met) only count towards this card's effect if the condition has been met.
Chair, Ladder, Stop Sign, Table (rulings for all four)-You may only "choose" these cards per their card text as you play a maneuver. Specifically, in step 3a.
-If your maneuver is successful, you may only use these cards' Activated Card Effects before damage is applied, as using ACEs is not allowed while damage is being resolved unless those ACEs specifically permit it. Specifically, these cards' ACEs are activated in step 7a.
-If these cards' Activated Card Effects are reversed, the turn does not end until the maneuver being played fully resolves.
-Packing these cards does not influence how many copies of
Chair Shot,
Ladder in the Ring, or
Table! Table! Table! may be packed. This will be made explicit in a future revision.
Chaos and Pandemonium at Ringside!-This card has no maneuver type. It will not count toward Beth Phoenix's Ability or
Simply the Best.
-The opponent may draw less cards than he shuffled in; the damage bonus and Ringside-removal-if-successful will only accrue for cards that he actually draws from the effect.
Cheat to Win-When this card's Activated Card Effect is used, the opponent does not get another opportunity to respond to the Cheater card, as he already responded.
Collegiate ChampionsERRATA: The ACE of this card now reads "ACE: When this card is in your Ring area, once during each of your turns you may discard 3 cards, and then look at your opponent's hand, choose 1 card, and he discards the chosen card."
Con-Chair-To (Throwback)-Even though
Revolution Tomorrow's WWE Legends Today can be packed by any Superstar, that does not allow all Superstars to pack
Con-Chair-To; only Superstars with the Randy Orton, Edge, or Christian logos on their Superstar card, Superstars that stipulate that they can pack cards with the Randy Orton, Edge, or Christian logos (i.e. Leader of the Edge Army and Leader of the Peepulation), or Superstars packing a Corner that allows one of those logos may pack
Con-Chair-To.
Corporate Kane-The reveal effect only works with cards with a Kane logo, not cards that are just Superstar-specific (for example,
Respect the Authority making
Backed by Stephanie McMahon 'Superstar-specific').
Dallas, Texas-"Half of the Arsenal" refers to half of whatever size the Arsenal is after cards are removed. EXAMPLE: Booker T removes 15 cards with Dallas' text; if his opponent finds more than 22 reversals in the remaining 45 cards, he can trigger Dallas' loss condition on Booker.
-
Wrestlemania and
Pay-Per-View Main Event cannot prevent the Pinfall from this card. Don't even ask.
Dirty Low Blow-This card's protection is set when played. If the opponent's Fortitude changes during this card's Timing Sequence, it will not affect whether
Low Blow can only be reversed from Arsenal or not.
Diva Bikini Contest-This card is intentionally blank. There is no text missing from this card.
-Stun Value is only drawn from maneuvers, so if this card somehow deals damage, an overturned reversal would not cause the player to draw cards.
Don't Be a Douchebag-This card will not ignore the Chain trait, as it is not a card, but a trait.
-This card can reverse a Chain card, as it has a 'reversal restriction from an opponent'.
Don't Treat Me Like You Know Me-If your opponent does not wager a card, either because he has no cards in his hand or he chooses not to, you will put every card under
Know Me into your hand.
-A hybrid card that is part maneuver is a maneuver card, not a "non-maneuver" card.
-If a Multi maneuver is revealed as a wager, all the cards under
Know Me will go into Chyna Doll's hand.
Double-Crossed the Boss!-This effect does not stack with the Fortitude doubling of
Revolution Double Your Value - Double Your Fun, due to the specific wordings of both cards.
ECW on Sci-Fi-
Restricted Use in This Area will not allow the opponent to play
Elbow to the Face if the
ECW player chooses that option, since
ECW on Sci-Fi modifies the opponent and not the maneuvers.
Elevated Double Chicken Wing-The "When you have 20 or less cards in your Arsenal" effect allows you to replace the target of an Arsenal search with
Elevated Double Chicken Wing, from the Arsenal.
Enough Shenanigans-The Ability alterations from this card are continuously checked; any new Abilities assigned to JBL or Ken Kennedy will be blanked, and Roddy Piper's Ability will always revert to what is printed on
Shenanigans.
Flair's Robe-ERRATA: Replace "
The Founder of the Four Horseman" with "
Revolution The Founder of the Four Horsemen".
Flawless Transition-The card played with this card must be printed F:0 and printed Chain.
Flanked by Arena Security-The protection that this card provides lasts through the entire Pre-match phase, so any effects that occur at the end of the Pre-match phase will still be limited by the protection granted by
Flanked. Effects that occur after all Pre-match phases, like
Backstage Donnybrook and
WWE Spinner Belt, will not be affected by
Flanked, as its protection has expired when those cards resolve.
Getting an Edge on the Competition-This card deals no damage, as it is never played.
-If it is removed from the Ring, it cannot be shuffled into an Arsenal.
Green Bay, Wisconsin-The +20F for this card's Activated Card Effect will apply toward playing
Green Bay Plunge.
Halloween Havoc-The fake Strike 'played' will not be restricted by
There Is No Escape.
Hawk's Neck Breaker-When you are the Road Warriors, this card reverses nothing. It's still a hybrid.
Hellraisers 'till the End-This card's Activated Card Effect can be used if you put the card into your Backstage Area, since it does not include the words "When this card is in your Ring," and as the card is not in the Ring anymore, the effect will not qualify as an Activated Card Effect and cannot be reversed.
I Have 'Til FIVE!-The F:5 is thematic, you do not need to have 5F to use this card's effect.
IRAN... Number One!-
ERRATA: "your cards with that title are now Heat
when played until the end of the turn,"
-Cards named for
IRAN are Heat everywhere, and will satisfy the play restriction of
You Will Witness History.
Irish Whip (Throwback), Throw Into the Corner Turnbuckle (Throwback) (rulings for both)- The ACE of this card only satisfies the conditions "Can only be played after
Irish Whip" and "Can only be played after a Set-up card." It does not satisfy the condition "Can only be played after a successfully played card."
Lu-cha! Lu-cha! Lu-cha! Lu-cha!-The blanking happens after the High Risk is a legal play.
Moonlight Drive-# cannot be greater than 10, not the number of cards cannot be greater than 10; if 6 cards are removed from the game,
Drive will only be -10F.
Mr. McMahon's Lead Pipe Shot-This card deals no damage as an Action, since successfully played cards only deal Damage when they resolve to the Ring.
Old School Cage Match-This will prevent cards with effects requiring movement of other cards from Ringside from paying the cost, such as
Thrust Knee Lift or
Kidney Punch. Since the cost cannot be met, the effect fails and nothing happens.
On Your Knees, Dog-This card only interact with cards with a Triple H logo, not cards that are just Superstar-specific (for example,
Respect the Authority making
Backed by Stephanie McMahon 'Superstar-specific').
Open Your Eyes to the Truth-This card will prevent the need to discard cards to prevent
Hassan's Modified Camel Clutch from removing itself from the game if it is unsuccessful, as the card is considered played from Ringside until it is completely finished resolving.
Out of Nowhere-Using the reversal effect does not give a reduction to playing the card as an Action, it is still F: 25.
Piper's Legendary Presence-The additional cards packed in the Backlash do not count toward the limit of cards normally packed.
Playing Head Games-Cards named in the text of this card are played during the end of the Pre-match phase as directed, triggering their text.
-The opponent cannot play reversals to these card, as reversals cannot be played during the Pre-match phase.
Punch (Throwback)-Traits include Chain, Heat, Volley, Multi, Foreign Object, Set-up, Follow-up, and hybrid.
Pure & Wholesome- This card will not prevent a player's hand from being revealed; it will only stop effects that specifically use the term "look at his hand." If cards would be chosen, they are still to be chosen randomly.
- Pure & Wholesome will double and randomize any attempt to choose a known number of cards, even if that effect would normally ask for cards of a specific type.
Explosion Raw Deal, which discards 1 Reversal and 1 Action (if you discard a card) will instead cause your opponent to discard 4 random cards;
I'm Gonna Break You would let you choose (2 x #) random cards, and then you would choose to have them discarded or shuffled into his Arsenal.
- If an effect asks you to choose "any number" of cards that meet a certain criterion, the effect will fizzle, because you cannot know what that number is without being able to look at his hand.
Cheaters Never Win would normally cause a player to discard any number of chosen Heel and Cheater cards, but Molly cannot know what number of cards are valid targets, so nothing will happen.
Raw Roulette Wheel (Throwback)-You must be able to play the Stipulation that goes atop the
Wheel, since it is played and not put on top.
Skirt vs. Skirt Match will only be playable if the opponent is a female Superstar.
-If there is no Stipulation on top of the
Wheel, the ACE may still be used. "Any Stipulation" includes the state of having no Stips on top of the
Wheel at all. A fresh Stipulation will be placed atop the
Wheel.
Ref Takes a Bump-If another card tries to move the maneuver affected by
Ref Takes a Bump (
Banned from Ringside,
The Coach Says, "Today's the Day!"), that effect will fail once
Ref Takes a Bump redirects the card to the Ring. Effects that resolve before
Ref Takes a Bump (
Piper's Pit original, etc) will not fail, and the maneuver will be ineligible to be moved by
Bump.
Regret Nothing, Fear Less-
ERRATA: "Can only be played after a successfully played maneuver, that maneuver is blank
until the end of the turn and deals no damage."
Reinforcements from the DX Army-This card will allow The Game to draw when he uses his Ability, as triggered effects may fire before the Draw Segment, just not activated ones.
NOTE: This is a reversal of a previous ruling.
Respect the Authority-
Backed by Stephanie becomes Superstar-specific, but that does not equate to being specific for a Superstar, such as 'Kane-specific' or 'Triple H-specific' cards.
Revolution Too Extreme For Your Own Good-
ERRATA: "Your
Revolution Outmaneuvered cards are F: 0."
Rockin' Raw-
She's Got Legs cannot be reversed as long as this card is in the Ring.
Rude's Changing Alliances-The Allegiance cards are not 'packed' so it is legal to put all 10 Allegiance cards into this deck.
-Cards on top of this card are considered to be 'in your Ring'; it will allow you to play cards with an Allegiance Requirement (such as
Team Spirit) and its effects will affect your cards. This will not trigger the put effect on
Where the Big Boys Play, as the card is not actually being put into the Ring, only considered to be in it.
Sandman's Singapore Stash-When played, the face-down card is titled
Struck by a Kendo Stick and it is a Strike and a Foreign Object. When in the Ring, as noted, the face-down card is titled
Struck by a Kendo Stick, it is considered to be a Foreign Object, and it is considered to have ECW in the title, but has no additional properties. It is not a maneuver, a Strike, a Throwback, etc.
Saturday Night's Main Event-The phrase 'of the same type' refers to whether the card is a Pre-match or Mid-match, in other words playing
Interviewed by Mean Gene Okerlund would increase Pre-match Capacity by +1.
See How It Feels (Throwback)-The card is a legal play when the search is performed after it is successful, so using a Trademark Finisher with 'Can only be played...' text is acceptable.
-The search is only performed when the card is successful, so it is a 0D maneuver (and action), and can be reversed by cards like
Elbow to the Face or
Clumsy Opponent.
Spinning Arm Lock, Spiral Bomb, Whirlwind Kick-These cards are all legal in the Virtual Classic format, as they do not have the Revolution logo. The extra maneuver types will count for cards like
Beg For Mercy and
Simply the Best.
Standing Moonsault-The opponent may reverse the
Moonsault with effects that do not involve playing Reversal cards, like putting
Stop Sign into his Ring from his hand.
Tag Team Shenanigans-This card can be packed by any Superstar, including Doink.
-This card will not grant any packing permissions, it only explains how Tag logo cards are resolved for non-Tag format play for the Superstars that can pack Tag logo cards (such as The Rockers and Demolition).
Taking One For the Team-A Bella twin that is removed from the game with this card cannot be shuffled into the Arsenal or placed into the Ringside or hand, as neither Brie nor Nikki specifically permit placing Superstar cards in the Arsenal like Dude Love does.
Tear You Down Like a Minnesota Wrecking Crew-Discarding cards that return themselves to your Backlash deck, like
Hardcore Style Throwback or
Touch Turnbuckle #3, will not give any Fortitude reduction, as these cards are never put into the Ringside.
The French Phenom-Card effects that specifically reference the top card of the Arsenal can utilize the card under Phenom (primarily Maryse-specific effects). However, damage and non-damage effects that cause overturn will still affect the Arsenal as normal.
The Hitman-The
Hitman player may use the effect on this card any number of times during a turn. EXAMPLE: If Bret named
The Three Amigos, he could discard 1 card to reverse that card three times, all in the same turn.
-As always, the
Hitman player must name a real, existing Raw Deal card.
-The
Hitman player does not have to specify any Throwback condition, and naming a card will allow him to reverse both the Throwback and non-Throwback version.
-
ERRATA: Change the first sentence to read, "Your opponent cannot play Pre-match cards with "blank" in the text unless those cards have "Cannot be blanked" in the text."
The House That Hardcore Built-The ECW logo in the Backstage Area may come from a Superstar Card, such as an Extremist.
The Lone WarriorERRATA: Replace "Guest Ring Announcer" with "Guest Ringside Announcer".
The King's Throne-Revolution Triple H cannot pack this card.
The Paparazzi Princess-While your Arsenal is being shuffled, the sequence of cards is in flux and thus, there is no "top card" to reveal. Once the shuffle is concluded, the top card of the newly shuffled Arsenal is revealed as normal.
There Is No "I" In Team-"Your Faction's reversal card" describes the Reversal card with your Faction's card title in the Requirement.
The Straight Edge Superstar-
ERRATA: Add "to them" to the end of the first sentence.
-CM Punk's
Double Underhook Back Breakers are the only thing that you ignore "completely" in reversals to from this card, it doesn't help any other Multi.
-If played by Revolution CM Punk, he will need to make the
DUBBs Multi by some other means (
JR Style Action, etc.) for them to benefit from the first effect.
The Wildcat-Remakes and alternate names can be ignored for packing. Here is the list:
Big Freakin' Machine = Kane
Kevin Nash = Hall & Nash
Syxx = X-Pac
The Game = Triple H
The People's Champ = The Rock
Your Freakin Hero = Kurt Angle
- Packing the ECW Enforcer card will allow the packing of card with the Dudley Boyz logo, but not D-Von Dudley or Buh-Buh Ray Dudley.
This Is Going To Be an Old School Brawl!-Maneuvers count toward this card's effect as long as they have a reversal restriction from that player's cards. The restrictions do not need to necessarily come from the maneuvers themselves. EXAMPLE: Activating
The Title's On The Line! will make the maneuver that
Title affects count toward
Old School Brawl's count.
-Maneuvers with conditional reversal restrictions (reversal restrictions that are only active if a certain condition is met) only count towards this card's effect if the condition has been met.
Through the Fire and Flames-The +8F to reversals applies to Reversal cards that do not reverse. EXAMPLE:
Showdown! or
The Road to Victory.
-Revolution Kane cannot pack this card.
Tree of Woe Dropkick- Since the first effect only works when the card is being played, it won't allow additional uses of
Accompanied by Beulah McGuillicutty later in the turn.
Unstoppable Force-The reversals are blanked once they are played, so they are still legal reversals and will still end the turn.
-Reversals are not blanked by Force until they are legal plays, so any Fortitude modifications printed on those Reversal cards will still apply. EXAMPLE:
The Rated R Superstar.
Who Wants an Escort For the Night?-Specifically, this card refers to
Sharmell: Sizzling Spouse,
Maria: Ideal Interviewer,
Christy: Curvy Cutie,
Melina: Naughty Manager,
Lilian: Amazing Announcer,
Candace: Internet Icon,
Ashley: Pretty Punk,
Mickie: Fervent Fanatic,
Krystal: Broadcast Beauty,
Jillian: Foxy Fixer, and
Lita to the X-Treme.
World Champion Athleticism-Cards named in the text of this card are played during the end of the Pre-match phase as directed, triggering their text.
-The opponent cannot play reversals or use reversal effects to these card, as reversals cannot be played or used during the Pre-match phase.
Wrestlemania-A thorough explainer of how Wrestlemania is intended to work can be found
