Mayhem Mania - The Final Round!



This... is... Mayhem Mania! Not quite a game. Not really a contest. More like a competitive thought experiment. The object is to create the best WrestleMania card possible - NOT necessarily to predict what WWE will do.

If you're just joining us, here are the recaps of previous rounds.
Round 1 - Round 2 - Round 3 - Round 4 - Round 5 - Round 6 - Round 7 - Patreon In The Bank Round

This is the final round of Mayhem Mania. What a ride it's been. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect when we started this journey on the Wrestling Mayhem Show all the way back on January 20. I'm happy to say that it's been a ton of fun watching us try to conjure up the best matches we can. We've seen the absurd, the inspired and just about everything in between.

Our goal is to get 8 matches onto the permanent SUPER CARD. Currently, we have 5.

The Miz vs. Damien Mizdow

Goldust vs. Stardust

LAST MAN STANDING
Rusev vs. Brock Lesnar

Dolph Ziggler vs. Daniel Bryan vs. Sami Zayn vs. Curtis Axel
  
   

60-MINUTE IRON WOMAN MATCH
Charlotte vs. Sasha Banks vs. Paige

That's a solid start, but we still need 3 more matches to fill out the card. In order to come up with those, we look to the 8 matches that have been unable to survive long enough to graduate. In the final round of Mayhem Mania, we gave 6 members of the WMS Universe a chance to make 6 more changes. Those participants had the usual 3 options:

1. SWAP a wrestler/tag team with another already on the card.
2. ADD an unused wrestler/tag team to an existing match.
3. TRADE a match for an entirely new match with unused wrestlers.

They also had two STIPULATION options. Either add a stipulation to a match (both graduated and non-graduated matches are eligible), or move a stipulation added during the Patreon In The Bank round to another match.

Bray Wyatt vs. Finn Balor

Triple H vs. Brad Maddox
