What happens to injury time during bad time?

In wrestling, injury time is a critical aspect that pertains to the management of injuries that occur during a match. During bad time, which is a period when the match is officially halted (for instance, for an injury that is not deemed to be from a competitive action), any injury time allocated to a wrestler effectively becomes voided.

This means that if a wrestler requires time due to an injury, but the timeout is determined to fall under the bad time rule, that time does not count against the total injury time limit for the match. As a result, the wrestler can still have their full injury time available to them should they need it later in the match. This underscores the fairness in the management of injury situations, ensuring that a wrestler has the opportunity to recover without being penalized by the clock running against them during non-competitive stoppages.

The other potential outcomes, such as being counted as part of the match or ignoring the time altogether, do not accurately reflect the rules regarding injury time management during bad time.
