Match format

The match consists of a single ring enclosed by a steel cage with two teams facing off with each other. The staggered entry system is identical, to the WarGames match but weapons are permitted and are even provided. When all competitors have entered the ring, a roof is lowered onto the top of the cage, with various weapons hanging from it. Victory can be attained by pinfall or submission.
