 Tag Team Wrestling Information
They usually wrestle against a like number of opponents, however in the occasional "handicap match" there may be an unequal number of competitors (the late André the Giant was often pitted against two or more opponents).
According to the rules of pro wrestling, only one competitor per team is allowed in the ring at a time, and the only way that a wrestler can change places with a partner is for the competitor in the ring to "tag" him or touch him on some part of his body.
Given the nature of pro wrestling, the "rules" are seldom adhered to and exist as part of kayfabe, the suspension of disbelief required for pro wrestling to work as entertainment.
