The Trade Deadline is professional backyard wrestling is a rule regulating the trading of professional wrestlers' contract between promotions. Usually wrestlers acquired through trade after the trade deadline are ineligible if those wrestlers are champions , unless those wrestlers who are champions are traded to another promotion and yet work for another promotion at the same time. Trades after the deadline are banned , unless the "anti-banned act" is in place. This is where champions may be traded to another promotion and work for two promotions or get traded to another brand on that promotion. Following the trade deadline is the Free Agent Deadline.
