Some time later, however, the rule was changed so that the challenger had to win two falls, and the deciding fall not by disqualification or count out, to get the championship.

\n(Larry\u2019s thoughts\u2026 Many observers felt that the trend of making a match for a television show like Raw was so new and inventive. Granted, today\u2019s creative team probably had no idea that this had been done before, but scanning through the St. Louis results will demonstrate a few moments when Muchnick changed or made a match on TV to further an angle. Because it was not over done, it meant something when it happened and usually led to a big gate. In fact, some of the 90-minute programs and usage of mid-level talent against stars very much resembles what happened on WWE television at times in the 2000s.)<\/p>\n
