Compendium / Rulings
FAQ – This gimmick will have no effect on universal dropkick, umbrella hold, or sweeping slam.
Ruling – Ignoring the “If Stopped” on Madness Unleashed does nothing. Since it is not actively removing the text; the text still exists on your opponents cards as Added Text. Otherwise the card would not be allowed to played in this Gimmick.
Ruling – If “I Think, Therefore I am” is in discard pile and you play “Toss Your Son Over the Top” you may choose 1, 2, and 3 to force a mutual bury 6. These count as 3 separate instances of a burial for potential gimmicks or match stipulations.
Note – Ignoring the If Stopped on a card does not allow you to Throw in the Towel. You must stop a card as it is wholly worded to qualify for this spectacle.
Note – You typically ignore If stopped from “I Think, Therefore I Am” when your card is stopped so you don’t get an “If stopped you are DQed.” However if you resolve a card like Mist in the Face you could choose to remove the If Stopped on resolution and willingly lose by DQ.
