*INTRODUCTION*

Welcome future managers of the WWCWF(World Wide Championship Wrestling
Federation). In these next pages, You will be introduced to the world of
wrestling & how the WWCWF will be run. And now, LET'S GET READY TO
RUMBLE!

*Character Creation*

In order to create a wrestler, You will need to follow these steps:

1.Make a name for him, such as, Fantastic Frank Sullivan or Mean Victor.
As long as it is not a real-life Pro Wrestler. The only wrestlers that
will have real names will be those that are managed by me & they
will only wrestle in Try-out matches against your creations.

2.Height & Weight should be within the following ranges:
HT:5'9"-7'7"
WT:200 lbs.-600 lbs.

3.Hometown: Be Imaginative but don't have Boris Bandanoff hailing from NY,NY.
Instead, he should be from a Russian republic.

4.Image: Is your wrestler a good guy that is loved by the crowd<face> or
is he a down-right nasty character<heel>.

5.Gimmick:What does he wear, bring or do prior or following a match.
Ex:He may come down with a flag or a object such as a 2X4. Again, Be
reasonable & have it pertain to your character's image.

*Moves*
1.Offensive Moves:
  Choose any 11 moves & give them each a # btwn. 5-12. This shows the
effectiveness of each move. Ex:A punch would not have a 12 rating nor a
SuperPiledriver having a 5 rating. Also, W/ these moves, Somewhere in
the 11, you must give a move either in the 11 or 12 effective range a
P/A. This is t signify that on that move, you will try to pin you
opponent. Another thing that is to be mixed with the 11 is a submission
move(This counts as 1 of the 11), a ropes<just the word ROPES> & a form
of throwing your opponent out of the ring with a DQ in (). Therefore,
You offensive move count is:
6 regular moves
1 with a P/A
1 submission indicated by a `*'
1 Throw Out Of The Ring
1 ROPES
The Final Move is your Specialty. This should be indicated by a S in ().

2.Ropes:
  There should be 6 rope moves<opponent is bouncing off of the side
ropes or you are coming off the turnbuckle>.
These should also have from a 5-12 effectiveness. Also, You can put your
P/A here instead of in the offensive move column. The count of moves
should be:
2 regular moves
1 NA<No Action>
2 DQ(Out of the Ring format)}It's
          or                }Your
2 Specialty moves           }Choice

3.Specialty Move:
  Here is only 1 move but 6 different effective ratings.
  The Count should be:
  3 regular 5-12 ratings
  3 ratings with P/A's

4.Submission Rating:
  It should either be just 2 or btwn. a range of 2-6.

Special Move:

I need the following info. on your character's special moves:

1.Name of your special move..
2.When you want your move done:
  1) Locked up in the middle of the ring.
  2) His opponet is down in the ring.
  3) He has his oppent in an armbar.
  4) He has his opponent in a headlock.
  5) Running off the ropes.
  6) He has thrown his opponent into the other corner.
  7) He is on the top rope  and his opponent is down in the ring.
  8) He is on the top rope  and his opponent is up in the ring.
  9) His opponent is stunned.
  10) He is in the ring and opponent is outside the ring.

What kind of wrestler do you want?:
 1)Power
 2)Endurance
 3)Skill
 4)Speed
 5)Power/Skill
 6)Power/Speed
 7)Endurance/Skill
 8)Endurance/Speed
 9)Power/Endurance
 10)Skill/Speed

At this point, Your wrestler is now able to have his 1st match.

*Combat*
Since I will running the matches from my home, I will not explain how
they work. Instead, I will fill you in on the different matches that the
WWCWF will have in store for your matches.

1.Battle Royal:Self-Explanatory to those Wrestling fans. But, for 1st-time
  fans It is a match where a certain # of wrestlers(20) all fight
  simultaneously. This occurs along with wrestlers tossing opponenets Out
  Of The Ring until thee is 1 man standing & he is the winner.

2.Ultimate Escape Match(Tag Team w/ 3-4 men on each side):
  Steel cage with Tag Team rules. In order to win, Your entire team must
  exit the cage first.

3.Barbed Wired Steel Cage:
  The steel cage that is used is now lined with Barbed wire on the
steel. Of course, There is no throwing out of the ring. All attempts to
toss an opponent into the ropes will result in your opponent most likely
hitting the barbed wire. Finally, The loser is usually always injured by
the end of the match.

4.Battlezone Competition:
  A series of randomly-picked 1-on-1 matches where the winner stays to
compete & the loser is eliminated. 1st team to lose all it's wrestlers
is the losing team. Also, No Valets,Managers or Bodyguards at ringside.

5.Steel Cage:
  The goal is to escape the cage first.
  No Dq or COTR<Count Out of The Ring>
  No Leaving the ring & no outside interference

6.Brass Knucks Match:
  Both wrestlers wear special brass knuckle lined gloves & the goal is
to KO your opponent for a 10 count.

7.Federation Exile Match:
  The loser is banished from the WWCWF for a pre-determined amount of
time. Usually, There will be special match rules to declare a clear
winner.

8.Bounty Match:
  There is a pole in the center of the ring with a bag containing a
pre-determined amount of $$$. 1st to climb the pole & grab the bag keeps
the $$$.

9.Lumberjack Match:
  8 wrestlers(4 from each wrestler's side) surround the ring. The object
  is to pin your opponent.
  No managers or etc. at ringside.

10.Survivor Series Match:
   Teams of 4 wrestlers battle & once a wrestler is pinned, Dq'ed or
Counted Out of The Ring, He must return to the dressing room area. The
remaining members fight until 1 team loses all there members.

11.Death Match:
   No Holds Barred.
   Injuries are usually a result of such a match like this.

12.Torture Chamber
   Fought in a round cage with Titanium steel bars. NO way in & No way
out. 1st person to be unable to continue loses.

Any other matches you would like to see should be sent to me along w/
complete rules.

*$$$*
Money is won in matches where it is a prize or on a normal basis as part
of a money purse for winning the match. Money is used to purchase items
of use from stores across the U.S.A. All you have to do to purchase
something is tell me what it is & give it a reality-type price. I don't
want to see chainsaws costing only 5 cents. You may buy anything
bodyguard services, robes, new weapons, etc.
