The secret rule Seth Rollins broke on WWE RAW

During the match, Rey Mysterio knocked Seth Rollins from his corner when he was facing a legal Murphy. Seth Rollins snapped and entered the ring to attack Rey Mysterio. As he touched Rey Mysterio, the referee ended the match. According to Bryan Alvarez, Rey Mysterio was a legal player in the match. By being legal, Rey Mysterio had the right to fight a legal Murphy and attack an illegal Seth Rollins if he wanted. Just like Rey Mysterio, Murphy could have attacked Aleister Black if he wanted.

Bryan Alvarez revealed that a tagged superstar or a legal superstar can fight anyone, but an illegal superstar cannot attack a legal superstar. What Rey Mysterio did to Seth Rollins, therefore, was legal because he was a legal player in the game. However, Seth Rollins was an illegal player, so he broke the rule when he attacked a legal player (Rey Mysterio). This is why the referee ended the match and declared Rey Mysterio and Aleister Black the winners.
