Paper Wrestler uses random factors to determine matches. In general, about 12.5% of matches for broadcasted events are non-standard matches.

Standard Match

A standard match is any one vs one match without any special conditions or additional contenders.

Pinfall - One contender pins another contender. The lower the HP of the pinned contender, the lower the chance they'll escape a pinfall. A stored finisher allows the pinned contender to kick out for free using all stored momentum.

Countout - Although unusual, a contender may win by the other contender being out of the ring 10 rounds(The count of 10). This can happen if a contender is tossed out of the ring and is low enough on HP they cannot stand up before the 10 count.

Submission - When using a finisher or signature move that is a submission, it is possible to make the other contender submit. Lower HP on the specific body part and higher damaging submissions can result in favorable results.

Non-Standard Matches

I Quit Match

An I Quit match has no count outs or wins by Pinfall. The match continues until one contender is reduced to an HP that is low enough that they quit. Submissions CAN be used to secure victory also in this match type.

Steel Cage Match

In a Steel Cage match, the first contender to escape the cage wins the match. An opponent standing will attempt to shake the a climbing contender (50% chance per round). It takes 5 rounds to fully climb out of the cage.

Iron Man Match

There is no submission victory or disqualifications in this type of match. The match is timed for 30 minutes. Every pinfall restores HP to the victim but scores the victory 1 point. The wrestler with the most pinfalls(iron man points) at the end of 30 minutes wins. If the match is tied, it will continue until one wrestler has more pinfalls than the other.

Triple Threat Match

3 wrestlers - uses the same rules as a standard match except no countout.

Fatal Four Way Match

4 wrestlers - uses the same rules as a standard match except no countout.

Elimination-Style Matches

Note On Contendership Points in Elimination-Style Matches - Unique to Elimination Style matches - EACH elimination gives you 1 contendership points for ALL relevant titles for a wrestler. This raises the stakes highly on getting many eliminations.

Battle Royale

This match starts with a certain number of participants ALL in the ring. If you get thrown over the top rope in this mode, you will be eliminated.

Royal Rumble

Same rules as Battle Royale except contenders come out every minute. A total of 30 contenders are in every Royal Rumble. Exact order of entrance is hidden.

Note : The Royal Rumble ONLY occur in Pay Per Views as the first match.

Team Matches

Tag Team

This is the standard 2v2 match with only one contender from each representative team in the ring. The contender outside of the ring can run in to interfere with counts, submissions and heals while out of the ring. Preference is automatically given to the healthier/more confident contender on each team.

Variation - Tornado Tag

This is a 2v2 match with all contenders in the ring at once. There is no tags. These happen about 10% of Tag Team matches.
