Inventions from other sports that increased scoring

Stalling in wrestling makes the sport boring.  I wish we could get rid of stalling all together.  Here are some inventions from other sports that have increased scoring:

The down-and-distance rules in football  (The idea of so many tries to get so many yards)

Basketball shot clock increased scoring by almost 15 points per game

Basketball 3-point line

Football 2-point conversion

Rally scoring in volleyball

Do you think there are ways for these rules (or others) to be applied to wrestling in a way that stalling won't need to be called and scoring is constant?
