10 WWE rules we conveniently forget

#8 Choke holds aren\'t allowed

I’m sure you’ve seen a choke hold countless times in the WWE, but did you guys know that it’s actually banned? The reason for its ban is due to the extreme danger it poses if botched. A botched choke hold could cause serious damage to a person’s windpipe and sometimes even leads to permanent damage.

WWE has slightly altered the rule and defined a choke as a hand around the throat for a prolonged period of time, due to the number of times the rule has been ignored.
