The Pit

The Pit is the arena where Wrestle Monsters happens. This is a televised monster wrestling show. All in all, it is very similar to human wrestling, in that the majority of the fights are staged and the heel/face aspect of wrestling is retained. The Pit has security staff, and firearms are not allowed within 100 feet of the building [11]. Like regular wrestling, The Pit also has marks [13].

The Pit originally started as a literal pit in an old quarry beneath Mt. Ebott, but they eventually started renting an arena for more established fighting tournaments before moving to a full stadium just down the street from the MTT Luxury Apartments in Monster Town after the Barrier went down [14].

## The Ring

Magic is allowed, but the audience is protected by an invisible barrier [1]. The barrier stops all energy attacks from going through, but monsters and summoned objects can pass through. As a result, summoning spells are banned in most matches [2]. That said, the spells are almost purely for show and would barely inflict any damage whatsoever [4]. The Pit has a 0% fatality rate [10].

The ring itself has not broken in years, but it does occasionally happen [8]. The last time it broke was The Mammoth's debut match, which was a complete accident, but he played it off as intentional, thus cementing his position as a Heel [9]. Even still, the ring is designed to be repaired quickly and a crew of Temmies is assigned to the task [12].

## Wrestlers

Unlike human wrestling, gender does not play into the Pit's booking decisions [7].

## Dynamics

The Pit follows the standard human wrestling formula of faces (Flowers, Candle Gal) and heels (The Mammoth, Sub Zero) with the occasional force of nature (**Psychopomp**) or neutral wrestler (The Agent). The Pit intentionally makes it difficult for the audience to tell whether or not something seen in the ring or outside it is Kayfabe or not and any interaction, even romantic relationships, could just be an act [3]. Interestingly, The Pit is open about the fact that most of their matches are staged, unlike human wrestling companies.

## Trivia

* The arena has a hole in it to allow for entrances, so the tech crew created a form of red mist to obscure a person's entrance [5].
