Contents
Public Information
The Wrestling Club was founded by registered Millennium City hero Bronx in an attempt to interact with other heroes interested in the sport. Initial advertising originally began through word-of-mouth, but there are now posters and pamphlets to be found in most Gyms across the city. These pamphlets contain information for getting in touch with Bronx, who will then provide details on when and where meetings will occur. The group currently has an active roster of several members, most of whom have their own particular reason for joining the club. It is important to note this is a recreational club, not a Super Group. There is no "joining" procedure, aside from regularly participating in group events.
Structure
The Wrestling Club most regularly meets at Bronx's flat, located on the western side of the Downtown district in Millennium City. A wrestling ring has been installed in Bronx's home gym, that allows for event matches and training in a private, friendly environment. Though Bronx is the designated leader of the group, and the one who regularly hosts meetings, the club is structured to allow open socialization. Wrestlers seeking competition, training partners, or friends with similar interests to hang out with, may all use the Wrestling Club as a resource for finding such persons. Though Event and Hosted matches have specific rules that must be followed, private matches between consenting wrestlers may employ whatever rules they desire.
Wrestler Weight Classes
- Cruiserweight
- Below 400 lbs (<181 kg)
- Heavyweight
- 400 - 800 lbs (182 - 362 kg)
- Super Heavyweight
- Above 800 lbs (363> kg)
Rules
These rules apply only to officially hosted meetings, training sessions, matches and events. Rules in regards to private matches are at the discretion of the wrestlers participating.
- Win by Pinfall or Submission
- 3 Count Rule, Rope-Breaks in effect.
- Limit Attacks and Striking to Torso Only
- To prevent excessive injury.
- No Blood
- To prevent excessive injury and maintain sanitary wrestling environment.
- Dirty Fighting Moves are Permitted (Limited)
- Claw holds, Scratches and Bites are permitted, so long as they don't draw blood. No Groin Attacks.
- No Sexual Conduct
- The Wrestling Club is open to members of any sexuality or preference. In order to maintain club neutrality and prohibit unwanted behavior, no member should engage in sexual conduct whether by action or inference with other members.
Member Requirements
The requirements for joining are as follows:
- Members must have an interest in any form of Wrestling. This includes, but is not limited to, Greco-Roman, Freestyle, Amateur, American Professional, Lucha Libre and/or Sambo.
- Members must possess the physical capacity for Wrestling. All current Members are near peak-physical condition, and thus maintain competitive fairness when wrestling with other members. Weight Classes are based on meta-physical strength as well as weight, thus excluding anyone who is not physically capable of competing with at least a non-meta wrestler.
- Members must possess the capacity to recognize pain and avoid critically injuring other Members. Most wrestlers in the club are heroes, and are required to be in peak health and performance when on patrol. Therefore, certain attacks have been prohibited in the interest of reducing injury that may cause a hero to be unable to perform their heroic duties. It is vital that wrestlers be able to recognize when to cease or submit during a match.
Official Match Types
- One Versus One
- The most common match type, where two wrestlers compete against one another.
- One Versus Two (Handicap)
- One wrestler (either exceptionally skilled, or in a higher weight class) competes against Two wrestlers (either less skilled or in a lower weight class)
- Two Versus Two (Tornado)
- Two wrestlers face off against Two wrestlers, with all four wrestlers present in the ring, competing.
- Two Versus Two (Tag)
- Two wrestlers face off against Two wrestlers, with only Two wrestlers in the ring at a time. Wrestlers must tag their ally in by physical contact.
Match Conditions
- Kayfabe
- Wrestling is both competition and entertainment; Kayfabe is the introduction of additional entertainment value by creating stories surrounding the wrestling events. In order to accommodate wrestlers whose lives revolve around wrestling, in-ring Kayfabe is permitted and encouraged, but not a necessity.
- Selling
- In order to avoid injury, a wrestler may need to take a fall. This involves letting the opponent perform a successful wrestling move. Instead of resisting, the seller will purposefully position themselves to land as painlessly as possible. This has the benefit of extending a match, providing entertainment, and raising the moral of both wrestlers due to synergy in performing a move. Even if a member does not take part in the promotion of Kayfabe, it is important they recognize when it may be more dangerous trying to resist a move, than simply letting their opponent complete the move. Selling also refers to making certain moves carry more impact by over-reacting slightly, making the move seem more legitimate. This may be done to prevent Jobbing from taking place, as it maintains the skill balance between wrestlers, despite advantages one or the other may have.
- Jobbing
- Somewhat related to Kayfabe, Jobbing is where one wrestler has a clear and distinct advantage over the other, who is usually less experienced or of a much lower Weight Class. Though matches are generally arranged to be as fair as possible for both wrestlers, there may be matches arranged like this in order to ensure variety in the matches presented. Matches where there is no contest (where one wrestler is clearly going to win) are called Squash matches.
- Training
- Often taking place during regular meetings, training matches won't have their outcomes tracked. Regular matches can be converted to training matches if both wrestlers agree to the terms, thus preventing either of them from tracking a win or loss in their overall performance.

Stat System
An optional system for wrestlers is to employ the following Wrestling Systems. This is a newly developed set of systems for RP wrestling that keeps track of a wrestlers stamina and hit points, and prevents matches from potentially lasting for an infinite amount of time. Considerations still need to be made by both wrestlers in order to ensure the system is applied in a fair and consistent manner, however.
Turn System
Wrestling Matches are essentially turn-based, with each wrestler incorporating either performing an Action (attacking), Reacting (dodging/taking a fall/getting hit) or Countering (performing a Reaction and an Action in a single turn). The Stat System alters stats after each round (a turn made by both wrestlers), in order to advance the match.
Stat System
The values below reflect the default values that every wrestler has. Certain Traits can affect the amount a certain wrestler has, thus giving them a benefit or potentially a weakness.
- Hit Points: Each wrestler starts a match with 10 Hit Points. Hit Points are lost when a wrestler takes a fall or a hit, such as a punch, kick, dropkick, or a choke slam, suplex, or takedown. Hit Points do not regenerate during a match.
- Action Points: Each wrestler has 3 Action Points. One Action Point is Consumed each time a wrestler performs an Action. One Stamina Point is Gained when a wrestler performs no Action during their turn.
- Endurance Point: Each wrestler starts a match with 10 Endurance Points. Endurance Points are lost when a wrestler is held in a Submission Hold or Pin during their turn. Endurance Points do not regenerate during a match.
///NOTE: Need to mention "countering", and how it can be used to avoid using points, as well as 'Taking a fall' which can be used to avoid losing Hit Points, instead consuming an Action point.
Trait System
Wrestlers can create or select a trait that influences their base Stats. These are used in order to lend some further customization to a wrestler, as well as take into consideration certain innate abilities wrestlers might have based on their size, weight, species, experience, etcetera. Several default traits are provided as both examples of acceptable traits, or as available traits if a wrestler so decides to use one.
Roll System
If desired, wrestlers can use a coin-toss or roll-based system in order to ensure a non-biased wrestling match. A recommended resource is the random number generator found at random.org. A recommended method for determining pass or fail is using a min/max of 1 - 100, and counting any number 1 - 49 as Fail, and any number 50 - 100 as Pass.
