A No DQ match is a match in which you can't be disqualified. That may be statin the obvious, but WWE seems to forget it now and then. If you can't be disqualified then a rope break becomes pointless. Sure, you can stretch for the ropes if you want and they could be used to get you out of the hold, but your opponent has no obligation to let you go should you reach them and no matter what the ref says. Yet time after time, WWE superstars release people from submission holds in matches that are traditionally No DQ matches for that very reason. While we are on the subject, refs should be ignored in No DQ matches full stop. Yes, they should try and get in the way if things are getting a little out of hand, but unless the talent is the purest of babyfaces, then they should not be acknowledged.
