Back in 1999, Mick Foley pinned The Rock during 'Halftime Heat' by stacking some palettes and kegs on top of him and getting the pin. It was weird then, and it's weird now to see Seth Rollins doing almost the same thing to Erick Rowan.

The problem? Rollins wasn't actually touching Rowan when he "pinned him", so the referee shouldn't have counted to three unless he was going to decree that the palette was the real victor.
