DESCRIPTION: This match was originally created by ex-Gladiator Mayhem during his feud with Spike, but since then he had it updated. Like the original WIDOWMAKER match, the ring is disassembled except for the ropes, turnbuckles, and ringposts, which are placed at floor-level. The pads are replaced by ones with very coarse gravel. The entire "ringside area" is enclosed by a 20-ft. high ELECTRIFIED cage with a 2' x 2' hole in the roof for weapons to be periodically dropped through. Whether or not the wrestler can use it depends on if he can catch it.
RULES:
(*) An Aethran Deathband is an Aethranium metal headband with an energy cube imbeded in the center. When a non-Aethran wears it, it'll glow red-hot. When a Gladiator wears it, it'll glow yellow-hot. If Mayhem wears it, it'll glow white-hot, since the energy waves are tuned to his brain-waves. When a head butt is attempted by a non-Aethran wearing the headband, regardless of whether or not it's a Level 3 maneuver, his opponent rolls on Level 3 Defense. If a Gladiator other than Mayhem tries a headbutt with the band, regardless of what level it was attempted, it becomes a PIN (0) attempt. If Mayhem wears it and tries a headbutt, it becomes a PIN (+2) attempt. If he's wearing it and attempts the LEAP OF DOOM, increase the finisher rate by 2. [For example, LOD (+6) would increase by 4, taking into account Rule #5, which increases finisher rates by 2. That would make his finisher LEAP OF DOOM (+10).]
2-4 | Your opponent follows you outside the ring and throws you into the ropes. As you bounce off, he side-steps you and lets your own momentum crash you into the electrified cage. ADD 3 TO YOUR CAGE RATE. | |
5-7 | Your opponent climbs out of the ring to throw you into the cage, but you recover quickly, kick him in the stomach, and deliver a desperate power bomb. OPPONENT ADDS 1 TO HIS CAGE RATE. | |
8-10 | You drag your opponent out and throw him into the cage. OPPONENT ADDS 3 TO HIS CAGE RATE. | |
11-12 | What an idiot you are! You drag your opponent out of the ring and attempt to rake his face in the cage, but you've forgotten that the cage is electrified, because as the electricity flows through his body, it courses through yours, as well. YOU BOTH ADD 2 TO YOUR CAGE RATES. | |
13-14 | Your opponent climbs out of the ring and piledrives you. ADD 1 TO YOUR CAGE RATE. |
