Ultra Mayhem Wrestling

== Gameplay ==
UMW will play more like Ring of Destruction: Slam Masters II than a traditional wrestling game, complete with rounds and health bars.
Lilian Garcia makes an as-herself appearance as the ring announcer for UMW.
With the exception of the game intro, Mayhem Finisher sequences, character prologues and endings, and credits, which will have half the frame rate, I envision UMW to run at 60fps.
The Championship Pursuit (CP) Mode, AKA the Arcade Mode of UMW, ladder will consist of seven CPU battles, a Rival Battle, in which your chosen character fights their rival, that takes place inside the Championship Qualifying Arena, and two final fights against the sub-boss, Meat Grinder, and the final boss, who is, of course, Curtis Kennedy Jarrett himself! So, that's 10 CP Mode battles total.
UMW has an Instant Kill-like ultimate attack called the Mayhem Finisher, which can only be performed using specific button inputs if the losing wrestler loses all of their health in your winning round and the crowd shouts for you to finish them, and upon the implementation of said button inputs, the character on the giving end of the Mayhem Finisher will perform an outrageous finishing maneuver in an epic and cinematic manner, and the crowd will cheer if they're a face, boo if they're a heel, or give mixed reactions if they're a tweener once they have either pinned or submitted the opponent at the end of the Mayhem Finisher. If you are unable to input the command for the Mayhem Finisher before the Finisher timer expires or hit the losing wrestler with anything other than the Finisher, you will get the winning wrestler's outro sequence instead.
UMW will feature Create-a-Wrestler mode, a first for MGW Productions' library of fighting games, in which, like Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, the Soul Calibur series, and pretty much every already-existing wrestling game out there, you can create your very own original wrestler and choose their gender (they can be male or female based on the player's choice), alignment (either face, heel, or tweener), ethnicity, and hometown. You can also give them either the moveset of a character present in the game, regardless of playability status, or one of four premade style-based movesets: powerhouse, technical, brawler, or dirty, as well as a name and crowd signs. There are also 12 voice sets that change based on what gender, alignment, and/or ethnicity you give your created wrestler. The list of ethnicities you can pick from for your wrestler are as follows: white, black, East Asian, South Asian, Hispanic, Native American, Polynesian, Middle Eastern, a mix of any 2-4 races, and ethnically ambiguous (with dark skin, too!). Unfortunately, created wrestlers don't have unique prologue or ending sequences; however, gender and alignment choice determines who their CP Mode rival will be.
The matches you can fight in are as follows: Normal, Elimination Tag, Triple Threat Elimination, Fatal 4-Way Elimination, Table, Ladder, TLC, Cage, Hell in a Cell, I Quit, Last Man Standing, Three Stages of Hell, Special Guest Referee, Buried Alive, Ambulance, Loser Wears Dress, Banned Move (in which performing a specific type of move or moves, such as a Meter Burn or a Mayhem Finisher, will automatically make the wrestler who was banned from using said move(s) for the match lose by disqualification), and Inferno. In CP Mode, the match type is chosen at random each CPU fight when your chosen wrestler spins a wheel of fortune featuring a number of match types at the press of the X button on the PS5 or the A button on the Xbox Series X before the fight; however, the predetermined match types are different for each character's rival, sub-boss, and final boss fights.
