πŸ… Tournaments

Tournaments

Tournaments are perfect for crowning contenders, launching stars, or deciding vacant championships.

🧭 Why Use Tournaments

  • Create instant stakes.
  • Fill cards with purpose-driven matches.
  • Give underused talent a spotlight route.

Smart Setup Basics

When you pick a championship prize, participant filtering helps keep brackets valid:

  • Singles titles β†’ eligible singles wrestlers.
  • Tag titles β†’ teams.
  • Multi-person team titles β†’ larger teams when required.

⭐ Match Ratings

When a tournament match airs, the bracket keeps the rating that match already earned on the show. Completed matches show that score, the same 0-100 star badge used on your shows, on the bracket and in the results list. Nothing is rescored.

Booking Tournament Stories

  • Use early rounds to create upsets.
  • Protect top names with strong performances, even in losses.
  • Build semifinal and final matches like mini-main-events.

🧠 Best Practices

  • Don’t run too many tournaments at once.
  • Keep bracket size realistic for your show calendar.
  • Tie the winner to a clear next step (title shot, contract boost, major feud).
