Ever heard about Session Moth Martina? I never heard of her before now. But I instantly fell in love. She is a future EAM Womens Champion, no doubt!

Might bring in Orange Cassidy as well.




Harlow O'Hara, Allie Cat

Bandido, Jurassic Express, RUSH,

Two battle royal, you must be sent to the second ring then eliminated: You start in ring one with 30 wrestlers and the ones tossed to ring two continue the match.

Trampoline match: Commercial grade trampolines, everyone does super exaggerated spots. Every match is now just a showcase for over the top silliness like that basketball trampoline sport

Top of the Helll in a cell royal rumble

Drug match: wrestlers have to take different drugs, coke/weed

5 stages of Hell match

Fan match: A fan has to survive 5 mins in the ring with a pro wrestler

4v4 Twister tag: It's like a normal 8-man tag but there's 2 men from each side in at once and 2 men on the apron that can be tagged in
The randomizer: every 3 minutes the stips of the match change. It could go from submissions only to Hardcore to tables to last manand etc
Floor is lava match

Assfuck Assault: Match ends when someone gets assfucked

Championship title Scramble, but good. You must pin the champ for the title to change hands.

Yeah, but you also have the psychology of people hesitating to pin the champ because they don't want to be the new target. Obviously it shouldn't be a yearly thing, but it'd be nice every once in a while.

They should do the slobber knockers from the old SmackDown games IRL. Have like 3 of them on Raw in the same night and whoever can squash the most jobbers in 10 minutes gets a title shot at the PPV.

The 2-for-1.
Two regular singles matches happen in the ring at the same time. Pinfalls, submissions, countouts and disqualifications apply normally. A guy in match 1 can only pin his opponent, not any of the guys in match 2. If a guy in match 1 hits a guy in match 2, it does not cause a disqualification.

Fried chicken and Watermelon reversed lumberjack cage match. In the ring is a table with fried chicken and watermelon surrounded by a steel cage. White wrestlers on the inside as lumberjacks defending the table, black wrestlers on the outside. First black wrestler to eat BOTH the chicken and melon wins.

I feel like this is something you could experiment with at the PC since they already have multiple rings set up there.
>Run three of them at the same time
>Have a "main" feed with commentary or the ability to focus on an individual ring
>Scoreboard and timer on each ring
I wouldn't greenlight it for TV, but I'd take a shot at throwing this on the network or some other platform like they did with the Mixed Match Challenge.

15 Minute Iron Man 2v1 Tornado Tag Handicap Match where the 1 is a random jobber and the 2 are big dudes (think Lance Archer & Brian Cage vs Marko Stunt). The goal is to see who can get more pinfalls or submissions on the jobber before the time limit is up. Getting pinned/submitted by the jobber is minus one point.

Announcer Match

It's like a no holds barred match but the only way to win is to do 3 things: Ring the bell yourself, get yourself a mic and stand in the middle of the ring and say exactly "And the winner of the match is *wrestler*" and the ref has to raise your hand

Royal Roulette
It's like the Royal Rumble, but instead of 30 wrestlers coming out in numerical order of 1-30, a roulette wheel spins and can land on any number between 1 and (whatever number you want).
Unlike the Royal Rumble, the same person can come out more than once after they've been eliminated.

Weapon vs Weapon match. Both wrestlers must fight with weapons instead of bare hands.

Time Machine Match. Losers must go back to their old gimmick

A multiple refs match. It's the same as a normal match but there's 8 refs in the ring for some reason. Also you're allowed to attack the refs.

all flips or somersaults barred match
Forbidden Move Match. Wrestlers can't use their finishing moves to defeat each other. They have to figure out how to win this match without using their finishing moves.
