from all over the nation in order to survive. Making a name for yourself isn’t
the only gratifying aspect of this game…being awarded for your accomplishments
and having your name published in the monthly Global Report makes our game even
more exciting. Can your wrestler match the enemy? Do you have what it takes
to become one of the best? Join us today and find out if you have what it takes
to become the best.
We have constructed this rules book to help you become a solid manager in the
GWA. Please take the time to read thoroughly before you begin playing. If you
have any further questions, you can contact us at the email link provided. Or
you can write to us at the address given at the bottom of this page. Thank you
for joining the Global Wrestling Alliance!
NEW
WRESTLERS LEAGUE
TRANSFERS LEAGUES
STABLES
Stables will also have the opportunity to register their stable for the GWA’s
ranking system. This is completely free to all stables. The only stipulation
to register a stable is the number of managers in that stable. The minimum number
of members a registered stable must have is five managers. Can you build a stable
to greatness?
BUILDING
YOUR WRESTLERS STRATEGY
To start off you will need to weaken your opponent’s strength by selecting eight(8)
basic attack maneuvers. These maneuvers will be selected from a list of 50 holds
where the values will range from 1-25. There will be two 25’s, two 24’s, two
23’s, etc… "How do you want to weaken your opponent to soften him up for the
more advanced maneuvers?"
Once your opponent’s strength is worn down, it will be time for your five(5)
advanced attack maneuvers. These holds are selected from a list of 25 more advanced
holds with values ranging from 26-50. There will be one 50, one 49, one 48,
etc… "This is where you try and take your opponent out and set him up for your
finisher, but be careful, one wrong move could lead to defeat."
Now it is time to finish your opponent off once and for all. You need to choose
one hold from a list of 15 possible finishing values. This will range from 51-60.
This is where it can be a little tricky. There will be one 60, one 59 all the
way down to one 56. Then there will be two 55’s, two 54’s, two 53’s down to
two 51’s. Your finishing move will still have its own custom name that you make
up. “This is the final jolt to your opponent before he gets counted out, so
make it a good one or the tables can be turned.”
Moves in the GWA will be given a different point value every month printed in
the back of your monthly reports. These point values are used to determine each
wrestlers strategy total, which is matched against your opponent’s strategy
total. The maximum point total you can earn in a singles match is a 488. Thus,
a wrestler with a strategy total of 485 will beat another wrestler with a strategy
total of 483.
Preparing a Tag-team and Six-man strategy can be a little more difficult.
Managers are highly encouraged to check their strategies every month to make
sure their competitive level will remain strong. The hold chart will be printed
at the end of every league report. Your wrestler will perform better if you
choose holds that consistently perform well.
LEAGUE
MONTHLY REPORTS

and its wrestlers. Here are a few things you can expect out of your league report:

GWA
Welcome to the World’s greatest imaginary wrestling game ever. Here in the GWA
we want to give you the best experience in imaginary wrestling any manager could
ask for. Competition here will be like no other! Most importantly, the GWA will
provide you with the best customer service and that is guaranteed.
All new wrestlers can be created FREE OF CHARGE!! You can create as many
as you want as long as you remember that each league has a capped number of
wrestlers which is currently at six (6) per manager!! So get that stable together
and head to those leagues, cause the action intensifying each and every day!!
No manager will be charged to transfer his leagues. There will be a section
to transfer your wrestlers on the match selection sheet. If you need more space,
on a piece of paper print which wrestler(s) you are transferring and what league
they are from. Then print which league you want them transferred to.
Leagues are divided into two types: regular cash leagues and "Special" cash
leagues!! The regular cash leagues award $25 for the league champion and require
a minimum of $3 to stay active!!! The special cash leagues award $50 to the
league champion and require a $5 minimum!!! These leagues, since so popular,
do have a wrestler cap of 100 to keep the competition tight!! But that does
not mean you can only have one cash league...join them all and get in on all
the fun!!
Building a successful stable in PBM wrestling is very exciting. This is a great
way to make allies and enemies. Anyone can make a stable at anytime. All you
have to do is put your stable’s initials in front of your name. Ex: ISC: Ultimate
Warrior. ISC would stand for International Stable of Champions.
First and foremost building your wrestler(s) strategy is the most important
role as a manager. You will need a good strategy to win in the GWA. A strategy
is comprised of moves you will use to face your opponent in your upcoming matches.
As in real wrestling, no wrestler is the same so you must change your strategy
frequently to have a shot at winning the gold.
Tag-team:When preparing your tag team strat it takes a lot more thought.
Wrestler #1 will use holds 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13. Wrestler #2 will obviously
use holds 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. The wrestler with the highest finisher will
be used for the 14th and final hold. Your set-up should look like this:
Wrestler #1:
1. 25, 2. 22, 3. 25, 4. 22, 5. 24,
6. 23, 7. 24, 8. 23, 9. 50, 10. 46, 11. 49,
12. 47, 13. 48, and 14. 58
Wrestler #2:
1. 22, 2. 25, 3. 22, 4. 25, 5. 23, 6. 24,
7. 23, 8. 24, 9. 48, 10. 50, 11. 47, 12. 49,
13. 46, and 14. 60
This makes it challenging to pick your tag-team strats. Only the best will survive
here.
Six-man:Setting up a six-man strategy is very similar to picking a tag-team
strategy. Wrestler #1 and Wrestler #2 will set their holds up like a normal
tag-team match. Wrestler #3 will only be used if his hold is higher than wrestler
#1 or 2. Here is an example:
Wrestler #1:
1. 25, 2. 22, 3. 25, 4. 22, 5. 24, 6. 23, 7. 24,
8. 23, 9. 50, 10. 46, 11. 49, 12. 47, 13. 48, and 14. 56
Wrestler #2:
1. 22, 2. 25, 3. 22, 4. 25, 5. 23, 6. 24, 7. 23,
8. 24, 9. 48, 10. 50, 11. 47, 12. 49,
13. 46, and 14. 60
Wrestler #3:
1. 22, 2. 23, 3. 22, 4. 23, 5. 25, 6. 25, 7. 24,
8. 24, 9. 46, 10. 48, 11. 50, 12. 47, 13. 49, and
14. 57
New wrestlers will be added to a new or existing leagues. A manager can also
decide which league each of his wrestler go to. League monthly reports will
be received every three to four weeks. Always make sure you send in your matches,
strategies, and any commentaries by the league due date. Make sure you also
allow 3-5 business days for mail to be delivered to the GWA. There will be no
exceptions to this rule.
- Wrestler Rankings
- Results of league match-ups
- Commentaries submitted by managers
- Battle Royal results
- Hold Charts
- All Global Rankings
- Royal Rumble results
- Special Contests and Results
- Global Commentaries
Each monthly report you will have to sign matches against other wrestlers in
your league. You will also be required to sign at least one match for each of
your wrestlers to keep them active. Any wrestler that is inactive for three
monthly reports in a row will be dropped from the league unless that manager
has contacted the GWA staff explaining their situation. Managers can sign as
many matches against as many opponents they want. Keep in mind that you can
only face each opponent once with each of your own wrestlers. In other words,
you can’t face an opponent five times with the same wrestler; however, you could
have five different wrestlers challenge that opponent.
Being the best is the way this game goes. Every league has numerous titles for
your wrestler to compete for: League Championship, State title, Regional titles,
Battle Royal Championship, Tag and Six-man titles.
GWA
OVERALL WORLD CHAMPION: This title is the BIGGEST title offered to
any one superstar in the GWA!! This title is where the best is separated from
the mediocre. To best describe this title, we'll use an example. A monthly World
Champion is awarded in the January Cycle. He is the cream of the crop for that
given month. The next month, a new monthly World Champion is awarded
in the February monthly report. Once this is established, the January World
Champion will wrestle the February World Champion USING the hold values
for the NEXT month (in this case, it would be the March monthly values)
to determine the OVERALL GWA World Champion!!! Also awarded in the March monthly
report would be the new Monthly World Champion for the March report!
Thus the following monthly report (APRIL in this instance), the GWA Overall
World Champion will DEFEND his title against the MARCH World Champion
USING the APRIL hold values!!! In this manner, it is conceivable to retain
your Overall World Championship for more than one month while not even being
a league champion within your league!!! This type of system rewards consistency!!!
This setup will be used in ALL Overall GWA Titles awarded as listed below!
Good Luck!!
This will be the ultimate goal of all GWA managers. This event will be held
only two times a year in July and the following January. Each year the GWA will
name twelve (12) World Champions. After the first six (6) World Champions from
January to July are named, they will be automatically entered into a tournament
where they will fight it out for the Global Wrestling Champion. Then once the
next six (6) World Champions are named from the July-December cycles, they will
do the same. Each year only two (2) Global Wrestling Champions will be named
and will be allowed to carry the torch of the best wrestler in the game at that
time. All Global Champions will be awarded $500,000 in imaginary cash, 500 manager/stable
points, and a cash prize yet to be determined.
Managers can submit commentaries on a variety of topics for upcoming League
Reports. Topics can include, but are not limited to: comments to other wrestlers,
stable invitations and declarations, slander, sneak attacks, etc. Managers are
encouraged to find allies and make enemies in their respective leagues, or in
others. You may find that you need strong allies to win the tag-team and six-men
belts, or to dominate all of the regional titles together. Or, you may want
to manage four of your own wrestlers to do it all yourself. Either way, commentaries
are a great venue for making this game realistic and interactive. Commentaries
are absolutely free. The GWA will print as many commentaries as space allows.
***Due to demand, we will be accepting COMMENTS by email as well. Send
those comments in today!
Cheating is not tolerated in the GWA. Anyone manager caught cheating will be
removed from the GWA never allowed to return. Enough said on that issue.
Simply write down on a sheet of paper your name and old address. Then write
your new address and any other information we may need to know. You can also
email the address change to us at the link provided.
An active manager that keeps their eye on the point values, the commentaries,
and the world report, will have plenty of reasons to do well. Make sure you
get all of your league requests into the GWA by the DUE DATES listed in your
LEAGUE REPORTS.
