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.

For those of you who are just joining us, here’s where you can catch up on Mayhem Mania 2019: Opening Round

Round 1 of Mayhem Mania 2019 was held during the Wrestling Mayhem Show on Tuesday, January 29. 5 people were invited to each make a single change to our existing card of 8 matches. Here’s how it went down.

Move 1 (by Larry)
DELETE Brock Lesnar vs. Samoa Joe and CREATE Becky Lynch vs. Rhea Ripley
Move 2 (by Mad Mike)
DELETE Pete Dunne vs. Drew McIntyre and CREATE EC3 vs. John Cena
Move 3 (by Tina Keys)
DELETE KUSHIDA vs. Lio Rush and CREATE Sanity vs. Gallus
Move 4 (by Jen Carlins)
ADD Dean Ambrose to Braun Strowman vs. Tyler Bate vs. Cesaro
Move 5 (by Beastman)
DELETE Ricochet vs. Shane Strickland and CREATE Drew McIntyre vs. Lars Sullivan vs. Samoa Joe

With Round 2 now in the books, here are the 5 newly created matches on our card.
Braun Strowman vs. Tyler Bate vs. Cesaro vs. Dean Ambrose

WEEK1-2

MUSTAFA ALI VS. DJZ
(CREATED BY ALEX KAHRS)
WEEK1-4
TRISH STRATUS VS. ALEXA BLISS
(CREATED BY PRODUCER MISSY)
WEEK1-5

Any match that survives 3 consecutive weeks without being altered in any way will graduate to our SUPERCARD, opening up a new slot for new match ideas.

Prior to the start of Round 2, a bounty of ELIMINATORS were awarded based on the results of our Royal Rumble Challenge. ELIMINATORS allow a player to eliminate any single person from being used at all during this year’s Mayhem Mania. An ELIMINATOR can be used at any time once it’s been earned. Here’s the list of who’s been eliminated thus far.

Ric Flair
Jeff Jarrett
Brock Lesnar
Drake Maverick

Next week, five more players will join us to make more changes to our existing card. Which matches do you want to see changed? Which ones are destined for the SUPERCARD? Share your feedback and thanks for supporting Mayhem Mania.

Rob Johnston joins us to talk about some Dojo Pro wrestling. He, of course, is joined by our usual stable of ne'er-do-wells including Sorg, Dave Podnar, and Alex Kahrs as they talk this week in wrestling, including:

That's right, we've kidnapped Rob Johnston from the AwesomeCast podcast so we can talk Dojo Pro (among other things).
Extreme Rules was in Pittsburgh, and we are once again reminded why we can't have nice things.
Sorg was so close at Extreme Rules that he almost took a pancake to the face.
Dave heard Steelers chants come through the TV feed for Extreme Rules. Sorg recalls no such chants. Were they piped in? Hmmm.
Things we are thankful for - The Roman Reigns v Bobby Lashley match didn't follow the Iron Man Match at Extreme Rules.
We didn't see Elias in his hometown for Extreme Rules - despite the obvious Pittsburgh references throughout.
Sorg is sad he didn't get an awesome Shinsuke v Jeff Hardy match.
THE CROWD GOT KICKED IN THE BALLS BY SHINSUKE!
Rob can FEEL the wrestling in Nashville.
We're taking a few moments to remember Bruno Sammartino and the history of wrestling.
Speaking of our guest, Rob, it was great seeing him being pushed around in the ring on a Dojo Pro video on Facebook.
Rob Johnston is talking about some of the fun with Dojo Pro.
The biggest message from Rob Johnston - Dojo Pro is bingeable!
Rob has some thoughts on Joey Janela.
It's convenient that we're talking with Rob Johnston on THIS episode.
Rob had a chance to speak with Hulk Hogan a few years back.
Hulk Hogan is not the same as Terry Bollea. It's important to make separations between characters and people.

This week's Big Question: Which wrestling superstar needs to release an album next?
Mad Mike couldn't be here this week - so he sent a Mad Mike Mail!
