Talking Mayhem Mania: Round 8

About this Episode
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.
This is not fantasy booking. It’s more like reality booking. Any match created must have at least a chance of happening in this year’s WrestleMania. That means all wrestlers come in their current physical, emotional and contractual state. Anyone selected for a match must have a reasonable chance of being hired by WWE to appear on the real-life WrestleMania card.
Simply put, you’re Vince McMahon with infinite cash and no self-control.<!--more-->
For those of you who are just joining us, here’s where you can catch up on Mayhem Mania 2019: Opening Round – Round 1 – Round 2 – Round 3 – Round 4 – Round 5 - Round 6
Round 6 of Mayhem Mania 2019 was held during the Wrestling Mayhem Show on Tuesday, March 12. 5 people were invited to each make a single change to our existing 8 matches on our “undercard”. Any match that survives 3 rounds without being altered in any way GRADUATES to our SUPERCARD. So far, two matches has earned this distinction.
MAYHEM MANIA 2019 SUPERCARD
ELIAS VS. VELVETEEN DREAM (CREATED BY SORGATRON)
ZELINA VEGA & BILLIE KAY & PEYTON ROYCE VS. IO SHIRAI & KAIRI SANE & ASUKA (CREATED BY BOBBYFJTOWN)
Bobby's match just graduated following Round 6. So, before we could begin Round 7, Bobby was rewarded for creating a graduated match. He received 1 ELIMINATOR (more on that in a little bit). He got to hand out a dose of "punishment" to one of this week's players (He chose to give it to Alex Kahrs). Finally, he also created a new match to fill the opening created on our "undercard".
SPECIAL PRE-ROUND MOVE (by BobbyfJTown) CREATE Daniel Bryan & Erick Rowan vs. Bray Wyatt & Luke Harper
