This Unfair World

Hey Scott–

I was watching the LOD/Natural Disasters match from Royal Rumble '92, and there's a spot I never gave much thought to before.

Hawk goads Earthquake into throwing a dropkick, moves out of the way, then points to his head, indicating his intelligence.

If you've taught me anything over the years, it's that pointing to your head invariably leads to disastrous consequences. Yet Hawk simply tags out and suffers no comeuppance whatsoever.

Is this wrestling law only for heels, then? Babyfaces can tell everyone how smart they are with impunity?

What a biased rule. I'm starting to have my doubts as to the integrity of professional wrestling.

Of course the rule only applies to heels! Otherwise it would be ANARCHY.
