10 Wrestling Rules You Had No Idea Existed
4. No High Heels In Carmel-By-The-Sea, California
Yep, buckle up. It's about to get weird.
If you've ever sat back to watch a wrestling event in Carmel-by-the-Sea in California, the chances are you've never seen a single solitary heel on show. Now, we're not talking about the typical, slimy bad guy or gal strutting down to the ring and running down the Cali locale. In this case, the ruling literally applies to the item of clothing found on many a person's foot.
In clear response to lawsuits made against the location due to the uneven pavement leaving some folks injured post-heel-wearing adventure, the city ordered everyone fond of wearing the shoe to cease kitting themselves out in them in their vicinity.
It's widely understood that most wrestlers are required to dress to the nines when representing their company at an event or press conference, with many stars opting for heels should the occasion fit. However, if said gathering takes place in Carmel-by-the-Sea, heels are most definitely off the menu and must be avoided on pain of death... or a slap on the wrist, at least.
