With FACE TO THE MAT Pro Wrestling simulation board game!
Since 2000, FACE TO THE MAT Pro Wrestling has been power-slamming pro wrestling fans with pure, nitro-fueled wrestling entertainment. To celebrate the game's 20th anniversary in 2019, we created a bold new look for the components and added a host of new play enhancements, making the game better than ever! To call FACE TO THE MAT a "wrestling board game" isn't really accurate--it's more like a TV script that writes itself! Hungry for some pro wrestling entertainment? FACE TO THE MAT will PILE it on! It's NOT just the matches--this is a game that creates the whole wrestling STORY! Good guys vs. bad guys, heroes and villains, underdogs vs. favorites...feuds, gangs, outrageous plot twists...and everything else! You've never experienced anything like it--except maybe on a real pro wrestling telecast!
FACE TO THE MAT Pro Wrestling simulation board game is EASY and FUN to play! The game uses a deck of text-based fast-action cards along with a booklet of "highlight reel" results to create amazingly detailed pro wrestling action AND story-lines. You choose your wrestlers, flip the cards, read the results. The fast-action cards direct the wrestling action, the "highlight reel" booklet guides the story-line. It's that simple! Wrestlers perform in the ring just like they do in real-life, based on a dozen different qualities like strength, quickness, power and agility. Everyone from the "superstars" to the "jobbers" can be expected to recreate their real-life abilities, at YOUR command. The "highlight reel" booklet will guide you through the twists and turns of a real wrestling show, everything from grudge match challenges, face and heel "turns," TV interviews, and eyebrow-raising, cliff-hanger endings. Yes, this game generates its OWN "heat!" Imagine the fun you'll have, watching your very OWN wrestling story unfold!
YOU are "the boss!" YOU set the course for your federation, and then let the game do the rest--it's amazing to watch!! Every time you open the box of this wrestling board game, you'll experience realistic pro wrestling action that's often dramatic, frequently humorous, and sometimes downright SHOCKING. Without spilling the details, we'll just tell you that some of the things written into the "highlight reel" booklet will turn your wrestling world upside down! It's more fun than TV--because YOU'RE calling the shots for your own wrestling universe!
