Exhibition Match Types:

1. Singles Match: The most basic match type, featuring one-on-one competition. The objective is to defeat your opponent via pinfall or submission.
2. Tag Team Match: Two teams of two wrestlers compete. Only one member from each team can legally be in the ring at a time. Legal partners must tag each other to switch. Victory is achieved by pinning or submitting one member of the opposing team.
3. Triple Threat Match: Three wrestlers compete simultaneously. Any wrestler can pin or submit any other wrestler. The first to achieve a pinfall or submission wins.
4. Fatal 4-Way Match: Four wrestlers compete simultaneously. Similar to a Triple Threat, any wrestler can pin or submit any other. The first to achieve a pinfall or submission wins.
5. Handicap Match: One wrestler faces a team of two or three. The single competitor must defeat all members of the opposing team, or the team must defeat the single competitor.
6. Battle Royal: A multi-person match where the objective is to eliminate all other competitors by throwing them over the top rope. The last wrestler remaining in the ring wins.
7. Elimination Chamber: A unique match type featuring six wrestlers. Four are initially in pods, while two start in the ring. Wrestlers are eliminated one by one via pinfall or submission until only one remains.
8. Steel Cage Match: A standard match type enclosed within a steel cage. Victory can be achieved by pinfall, submission, or by escaping the cage.
9. Hell in a Cell: A brutal match contested inside a steel structure that surrounds the ring and the ringside area. The match can end via pinfall, submission, or by exiting the cell.
10. Ladder Match: The objective is to climb a ladder and retrieve a suspended object (e.g., a championship belt or a contract). The first to retrieve the object wins. Pinfalls and submissions are not applicable.
11. Tables Match: The goal is to put an opponent through a table via a specific maneuver. The first to break a table with an opponent wins.
12. TLC Match (Tables, Ladders, and Chairs): A combination of Ladder, Tables, and Chairs matches. Wrestlers can use tables, ladders, and chairs as weapons, and the objective is to retrieve a suspended object.
13. Extreme Rules Match: A match with no disqualifications or count-outs, where virtually anything goes. Weapons are legal, and the match can end via pinfall or submission.
14. No Holds Barred Match: Similar to Extreme Rules, this match has no disqualifications or count-outs, and weapons are permitted. The match ends via pinfall or submission.
15. Falls Count Anywhere Match: Pinfalls and submissions can occur anywhere in the arena, not just within the ring.
16. Iron Man Match: A timed match where the objective is to score the most pinfalls or submissions within the allotted time limit. The wrestler with the most victories at the end wins.
17. Last Man Standing Match: The objective is to incapacitate an opponent to the point where they cannot answer the referee's ten-count. The last wrestler standing wins.
