I think that is what happened during Wisconsin Regional finals match 1.
Fondy fire 2194 collided with 2970 (really good rookie team) and parts went flying several feet away. Robots got locked together and would not move for the rest of the match.
I think the whole field was cleaned up before they even attempted moving the robots apart. After a long while of suspense, both robots came back in match no 2
