Mayhem Mania 2021: Patreon In The Bank
It must be Mayhem Mania season!
Every year, we bring together fans, wrestlers and other folks. Our goal is to construct the BEST WrestleMania card that’s currently possible. Everyone under a WWE contract is eligible to use, as are those who are within the orbit of WWE’s influence. If Vince McMahon can do it, we can do it!
There are two “tiers” to Mayhem Mania. The 8-match “undercard”, where our players create and make changes to matches, and the SUPERCARD. To reach the SUPERCARD, a match must survive three rounds on the “undercard” without being altered in any way, but that changes in our final round – Patreon In The Bank.
With no more time to wait on matches to GRADUATE, we invite the Patreon supporters of the Wrestling Mayhem Show into the final round of Mayhem Mania, imbue them with the authority to make massive changes to our card and enjoy the pandemonium. Some Patreons were granted the authority to imprison and even FREE individuals from SPACE JAIL! Here’s what it looked like heading into Patreon In The Bank.
SPACE JAIL Tickets can also be earned when a match GRADUATES. The creator of the match gets that reward. In addition, the match creator gets to hand out a dose of “punishment” to another player. Our friend Chad The Shad created a board of random numbers and letters which concealed the names of individuals that the “punished” player would be forced to use.
With only ONE match on our SUPER CARD heading into the Patreon In The Bank round, we had to GRADUATE seven matches! Here’s the record of how it all went down.
Patreon #1: Alex Kahrs (Manager Level Patreon) – FREE Billie Kay from SPACE JAIL – SWAP Cameron Grimes for Reckoning – ADD STIPULATION “WeeLC” to Legado Del Fantasma vs. Breezango & RJ City – AUTO-GRADUATE Legado Del Fantasma vs. Breezango & RJ City to the SUPER CARD – SEND T-Bar to SPACE JAIL
REWARDS for graduated match for Bobbyfjtown – CREATE THE DEMON Finn Balor vs. Aleister Black vs. THE FIEND Bray Wyatt – PUNISHED Mad Mike (*Jinder Mahal randomly selected)
Patreon #2: Mad Mike (Manager Level Patreon) – FREE Peyton Royce from SPACE JAIL – SEND Bad Bunny to SPACE JAIL – SWAP Karrion Kross for Jinder Mahal – ADD STIPULATION: “TLC” to Hurt Business vs. New Day vs. Street Profits vs. The Usos – AUTO-GRADUATE Rhea Ripley vs. Trish Stratus to the SUPER CARD

Patreon #4: Bobbyfjtown (Manager Level Patreon) – SWAP THE FIEND Bray Wyatt for Karrion Kross – AUTO-GRADUATE THE DEMON Finn Balor vs. Aleister Black vs. Karrion Kross – ADD STIPULATION: “Grave Consequences” to THE DEMON Finn Balor vs. Aleister Black vs. Karrion Kross – FREE Edge from SPACE JAIL – SEND Bobby Fish to SPACE JAIL

“ECW-Style” 4-Way Dance! Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Jordan Devlin vs. Kyle O’Reilly vs. Ilja Dragunov (Created by Kyle Turner)
During the round, our Patreon supporters also had opportunities to book guests for the first-ever Mayhem Mania WAP (Watch Along Party). They’ll join Faye Jackson, who was the first to be booked weeks ago.

Mayhem Mania 2021: Round 4
It must be Mayhem Mania season!
Every year, we bring together fans, wrestlers and other folks. Our goal is to construct the BEST WrestleMania card that’s currently possible. Everyone under a WWE contract is eligible to use, as are those who are within the orbit of WWE’s influence. If Vince McMahon can do it, we can do it!
Not every WWE wrestler is eligible to use. Under the rules of Mayhem Mania, everyone comes in their current physical, emotional and contractual state. That means anyone out with an injury is NOT eligible to use. (We are ignoring COVID-19 diagnoses because this is supposed to be a fun diversion, not a reminder of the terrible things happening around us.)
Others are not eligible to use for a different reason. Some of them are locked in SPACE JAIL.
* “Cell numbers” correspond with the numbers on our prize wheel
SPACE JAIL is not a life sentence. A lucky spin of our prize wheel can free one of them. Fortunately, that did not happen before Round 4 and SPACE JAIL remains secure…for now.
5 players were invited onto the Wrestling Mayhem Show for Round 4 of Mayhem Mania 2021. Each can make ONE of the following changes to our card:
– SWAP one wrestler or team with one in another match on the card or replace them with a wrestler or team not currently on the card – ADD a wrestler or team to an existing match – DELETE a match in its entirety and replace it with a new match using entirely new wrestlers – MATCH SWAP: This year, we have a designated “cinematic match” slot on our card. A player can choose to swap an existing match on the card for the match currently in that “cinematic match” slot.
With all that business out of the way, let’s take a look at the changes made during Round FOUR of Mayhem Mania 2021!
Move #1 (by Brandon) DELETE Io Shirai vs. Rey Mysterio and CREATE Toni Storm vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Becky Lynch
Move #2 (by Mad Mike) DELETE Elias & Drew McIntyre & Jinder Mahal vs. Damien Priest & Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch and CREATE Bray Wyatt & Alexa Bliss vs. Johnny Mundo & Taya
Move #3 (by Tina Keys) DELETE The IIconics vs. Riott Squad and CREATE Tommaso Ciampa vs. Cesaro
Move #4 (by The Rizz) DELETE Finn Balor vs. Kyle O’Reilly vs. Timothy Thatcher vs. Ilja Dragunov and CREATE Asuka vs. Meiko Satomura
Move #5 (by Chad The Shad) DELETE Mercedes Martinez vs. Sasha Banks and CREATE Pat McAfee & Rob Gronkowski vs. Adam Pearce & Bad Bunny
With Round 4 in the books, we now have FIVE new matches on our card.
Bray Wyatt & Alexa Bliss vs. Johnny Mundo & Taya (Created by Mad Mike) (*Designated as “cinematic match”)
Tommaso Ciampa vs. Cesaro (Created by Tina Keys)
Toni Storm vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Becky Lynch (Created by Brandon)
Adam Pearce & Bad Bunny vs. Pat McAfee & Rob Gronkowski (Created by Chad The Shad)
Asuka vs. Meiko Satomura (Created by The Rizz)
Here are the three matches that survived Round 4 without being changed.
Raquel Gonzalez vs. Beth Phoenix (Created by Tina Keys)
Samoa Joe vs. Karrion Kross vs. Aleister Black (Created by “The Rev” Ron Hunt)
Keith Lee vs. Pete Dunne vs. Roman Reigns (Created by Alex Kahrs)
If a match survives THREE rounds without being altered in any way, it will GRADUATE to our SUPERCARD. The creator of the match will receive rewards, including creating a new match to fill the open slot on our “undercard”. Our goal is to GRADUATE eight matches to our SUPERCARD by the time Mayhem Mania 2021 comes to an end.
One final note: Following Round 4, Chad The Shad used the two SPACE JAIL tickets he earned in our Royal Rumble contest to send BOTH IIconics – Peyton Royce and Billie Kay – to SPACE JAIL. In the process, the devious Chad exposed DEEP divides among the Mayhem Mania players in regards to how they desperate they are to see The IIconics in a Mayhem Mania.
Do The IIconics deserve to be in SPACE JAIL? What matches do you want to see us make? The only way to find out is to keep following Mayhem Mania 2021!

Mayhem Mania 2020: Patreon In The Bank!
This. Is. Mayhem Mania!
This is the ultimate fantasy booking game/competitive thought experiment. The goal is to create the best WrestleMania card possible – not necessarily to predict what WWE will do. That means we must play by the rules of our current reality. Everyone comes in their current (physical, emotional, psychological, etc.) state. Bottom line, if Vince McMahon can do it, we can do it.(more…)
Mayhem Mania 2020: Round 8
This. Is. Mayhem Mania!
This is the ultimate fantasy booking game/competitive thought experiment. The goal is to create the best WrestleMania card possible – not necessarily to predict what WWE will do. That means we must play by the rules of our current reality. Everyone comes in their current (physical, emotional, psychological, etc.) state. Bottom line, if Vince McMahon can do it, we can do it.
Mayhem Mania feels like it’s been flying by in the blink of an eye. We’re already into the penultimate round and on the verge of Patreon In The Bank! More on what to expect in a moment, but first let’s get down to this week’s business.
The goal is to get eight matches onto our SUPERCARD. All matches start out being created on our “undercard” where they can be tweaked, improved or outright deleted in favor of something else by our players. If a match survives three consecutive weeks without being altered in any way, it graduates to the SUPERCARD where it’s locked in. That also opens a slot on our “undercard” to create another match. Seems simple enough, but if you’ve been following along over the years you know it can get complicated.
Heading into Round 8 of Mayhem Mania, three matches had graduated to our SUPERCARD!
MAYHEM MANIA 2020 SUPERCARD!

EDGE VS. MATT RIDDLE
(CREATED BY CHAD THE SHAD)
BIANCA BELAIR VS. JAZZ
(CREATED BY TINA KEYS)
This is much more than simply “fantasy booking”. All individuals come in their current contractual, physical, emotional, etc. state. So, if Vince McMahon can do it, you can do it. However, if Vince can NOT do it that means that individual is off limits. There’s room for some flexibility if you’re creative enough, and our players usually are.
Not every individual available to Vince is actually eligible, however. A select few have earned the ire of some of our players and been banished to SPACE JAIL. That means they can not be used in Mayhem Mania, but it’s not a life sentence. Every week we spin our special prize wheel to see if one of them can escape. It happens more often than you’d think, but this week SPACE JAIL remained secure and no one escaped.
With all that fun stuff out of the way, let’s get into the moves from Round 8 of Mayhem Mania 2020.
MAYHEM MANIA 2020: ROUND 8
MOVE 1 (by Thee Rizz)
SWAP Samoa Joe for Shinsuke Nakamura
MOVE 2 (by Mad Mike)
SWAP Keith Lee and Drew McIntyre
Move 3 (by Rob Brown)
ADD Samoa Joe to WALTER vs. Keith Lee
Move 4 (by BobbyFJtown)
DELETE Finn Balor vs. Aleister Black and CREATE Akira Tozawa & KUSHIDA & “American Dragon” Daniel Bryan vs. Angel Garza & Andrade & Jorge Bolly
Move 5 (by Kyle from Pitt Fight)
ADD Finn Balor to A.J. Styles vs. Adam Cole
So, after those latest moves here are the five newly created matches following Round 8 of Mayhem Mania.
Akira Tozawa & KUSHIDA & “American Dragon” Daniel Bryan vs. Angel Garza & Andrade & Jorge Bolly

WALTER vs. Keith Lee vs. Samoa Joe

REVEREND D-VON & DEACON BATISTA VS. PAUL LONDON & BRIAN KENDRICK
(CREATED BY “COUNTRY HAMMER” JAMI JAMESON)
Guess what? That last match has survived three consecutive weeks without being altered in any way and it is now the FOURTH match to GRADUATE to our SUPERCARD! Congratulations to “The Country Hammer” Jami Jameson for creating such a great match. He’ll be invited back next week to receive his rewards. Those include:
1. One ticket to send an individual to SPACE JAIL (*Those in SPACE JAIL are not eligible to be used during Mayhem Mania, but have a chance to escape as you’ll see in a moment)
2. Name an entrant for the 2nd annual Mayhem Cluster Battle Rumble, to be held during the Mayhem Mania preshow. (*Individuals who are entered into the Mayhem Cluster Battle Rumble can still be used in another Mayhem Mania match)
3. Hand out a dose of punishment to one of next week’s players! (*I can not in good conscience allow any Patreon supporter of the Wrestling Mayhem Show to be punished during Patreon In The Bank, so this portion of the reward system is being suspended in this instance)
4. Create a new match to fill to open 8th spot on our “undercard”
Also, Mad Mike’s move for Round 8 did not survive to the end of the round. Thus, the “Alex Kahrs Rule” must be invoked. Mad Mike is invited back next week (He was coming anyway since it’s Patreon In The Bank) and he will be granted the FINAL move of the Patreon In The Bank round!
Some of you may be asking yourselves, “What in the hell is Patreon In The Bank?”
Patreon In The Bank is the dramatic, cataclysmic finale to Mayhem Mania. Every Patreon supporter of the Wrestling Mayhem Show is invited to participate. That means we’ll have many more than our standard five players for the “normal” rounds. Also, those players will receive enhanced abilities to alter matches, including adding stipulations, special referees and more!

DUMP TRUCKS 101: HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ONE
Since early 1900s, children have been fascinated by dump trucks. The sheer size of this huge equipment plying up and down streets appealed to their imagination and young boys from every generation since have confessed to toy dump trucks being their favorite plaything.
In the real world of adults, dump trucks — often called `dumpers’ or `tipper lorries’ in the United Kingdom and `tip trucks’ in Australia — are no less fascinating when you think about how incredibly important they are to keep modern society in working order.
The large-engined truck with a deep, open bed in the back is used across so many industries – from construction to mining — to transport all kinds of material from one location to another. In fact, according to Hexa Research, the dump truck service market in the United States will reach $ 20.64 billion by 2025, owing to a growing rise in construction and mining activities in the country. About 15,000 firms are currently active in the US providing dump truck services, and they create over 100,000 direct employment opportunities at current service levels.
Below, we have prepared a glance-sheet with all the most relevant information you will need if you’re looking to buy a dump truck that will best suit your budget and performance needs:
LOAD KING’S 10 FT. DUMP TRUCK
THE LOAD KING 10′ DUMP BODY CAN HANDLE SAND TO MEDIUM AGGREGATES AND ASPHALT. THIS DUMP BODY CARRIES UP TO 7 CUBIC YARDS AND ITS HIGH STRENGTH STEEL BODY CAN DUMP UP TO A 50-DEGREE ANGLE. LOAD KING DUMP BODIES COME EQUIPPED WITH A STANDARD ELECTRIC MESH TARP.
LOAD KING’S 16 FT. DUMP TRUCK
WHEN YOU HAVE MORE MATERIALS TO TRANSPORT, CONSIDER A 16-18 FT. LOAD KING DUMP TRUCK. WITH A STANDARD LENGTH OF 16′-18′, THIS DUMP BODY HANDLES SAND TO LARGE AGGREGATES, RIPRAP AND ASPHALT AND HAS THE CAPACITY FROM 16 TO 19 CUBIC YARDS. LOAD KING 16’+ DUMP BODIES COME STANDARD WITH HIGH-LIFT TAILGATES, HEAVY DUTY APRONS AND AN ELECTRIC MESH TARP.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT DUMP TRUCK
Below, we have prepared a glance sheet with all the most relevant information you will need if you’re looking to buy a dump truck that will best suit your budget and performance needs:
BODY STYLES
There are 3 kinds of body styles on the market: traditional rectangle, half-round, and semi-elliptical.
A dump box that is in the shape of a traditional rectangle will offer the most room on the floor of the bed, which means more spread. This shape is very popular for the strength and agility it offers with a low center of gravity when carrying a heavy load.
The half-round style can handle impact better than the rectangular version, because the steel is shaped into a semi-circle. As it does not require cross-members for support, it offers a lighter total weight and greater payload capacity. The shape also makes it more difficult for material to stick to the floor, allowing for a cleaner dump cycle. However, the half round has limitations when it comes to hauling equipment or pallets in the bed, because it’s not flat.
The semi-elliptical style – also called bathtub or tub style – is looked upon as a kind of hybrid between the traditional rectangle and the half-round. For example, this body style has floors like the traditional rectangle body style but has a haul shape like the half-round body style. Check the best deals at peterbuilt truck auctions.
BODY METAL
As all metals don’t have the same tensile strength, choosing the right one depends on the nature of the task the dump truck will be used for. There are two main options: steel and aluminum.
Steel is ideal for carrying materials that are more abrasive (such as asphalt, gravel, and concrete) as it offers more protection than aluminum against potential damage. There are numerous types of steel that are used, and they come in many grades, ranging from A-36 all the way up to AR-450 or AR-500 depending on the application.
Aluminum is a great choice when carrying non-abrasive materials because of its lighter weight. It offers a greater payload capacity, as well as more protection from corrosion. On the flip side, aluminum is more expensive and its repair costs are greater than steel.
ENGINE
Power output from dump truck engines typically ranges between 300 and 600 horsepower. A word of caution: do not overestimate your requirements and buy too much more horsepower than you actually need. This will cost you when you put the truck in operation. Consider the weight of the load you intend to carry and match an engine accordingly. You don’t want to be under-powered, but you don’t want to be over-powered either.
TRANSMISSION
Manual transmission offers a wide range of gear options in dump trucks. This allows operators to get more maneuverability, as well as match engine speed with the task at hand. An automatic transmission does not offer this advantage, but without multiple gears and clutch, they cause less operator fatigue during long haul jobs. A third option is an integrated automated manual transmission. This is becoming popular with dump truck buyers, because they offer both efficient energy expenditure and a comfortable operating experience at the same time.
AXLE REQUIREMENTS
Gross vehicle weight rating, or GVWR, is the maximum operating weight specified for a dump truck and includes the sum total weight of everything. This means chassis, body, engine, fuel, operator, and the cargo load.
Federal laws are in place to protect highways and bridges from excessive damage caused by vehicle weight. These limits are based on the number of axles on a truck. The fewer axles a dump truck has, the lower the weight that truck can legally carry on public roads.
This is precisely the reason why Super Dumps rule the heavy end of the market. A Super Dump has four to seven total axles and is capable of legal payloads ranging from 19-26 tons. Super Dumps carry payloads equal to trailers and transfers, while maintaining the maneuverability and quick turnaround time of a standard tandem dump truck. The unique combination of huge payload and speed is what makes the Super Dump the most productive and profitable dump truck on the road.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT DEALERSHIP
All dealerships are not made the same. But their participation in the purchase experience is extremely important – from evaluating specs and gauging the most suitable equipment to offering valuable customer support and financing options.
“A lot of people like to stay minimal, but we take pride in building robust trucks that are going to have lasting value in their second life — when it is time to trade it or sell it,” says Chip Howard, Product Manager at Custom Truck One Source, the first, true single-source provider of specialized trucks in the country. “We have 26 locations all across the U.S., a deep network of service and support staff, and we have a 24-hour call-in center. Ninety percent of our dump truck business is sales and only 10% is rental, but our customer support offers the same level of assistance to both client categories.”
Custom Truck One Source has the largest inventory of dump trucks in the United States, and carry a huge variety of specs. This includes region-specific options that will work anywhere from California to the Northeast. Our stock doesn’t even run low in the last quarter of the year, when people actually want to invest in equipment rather than taxes.
Mayhem Mania 2020: Round 5
Five tips for a healthy diet
Written by: Falon NeSmith
Media Contact: Adam Pope
Maintaining a healthy diet is important for your body’s overall health, reducing risk from many chronic noncommunicable diseases, such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer. These are the best keto pills for weight loss.
In honor of National Nutrition Awareness Month, Amy Warriner, M.D., director of UAB Weight Loss Medicine and professor in the University of Alabama at Birmingham Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, and Lizzy Davis, Ph.D., assistant professor with the UAB Department of Nutrition Sciences, share their top five tips for maintaining a healthy diet.
Choosing the right foods
It is important to choose foods for their nutrient content most of the time. Similarly, Warriner recommends choosing food for enjoyment only some of the time.
“It is important to know what nutrients are in foods and how to work those foods into your daily diet,” Warriner said. “If you do not know how to do this, talking with a registered dietitian can be very helpful.”
Davis says food is used more than just to sustain life — it is tied to culture, feelings, community, memories and more. Check out these cortexi reviews.
“For these reasons, it should be enjoyed some of the time,” Davis said. “Most of the time, choose foods that are nutrient-dense, meaning they provide a lot of nutrients for each serving size.”

“Typically, foods that are closer to their natural form are going to be nutrient-dense,” Davis said.
No food is bad food
There are no specific foods that you should or should not eat to be healthy. Balance is necessary, and all is OK in moderation and with balance.
“If you are eating a diet full of healthy vegetables and lean proteins, eating a treat every now and again is not harmful,” Warriner said. “Alternatively, if you are eating fast food for most meals, adding a protein shake is not going to make you healthier.” Learn more about liv pure.
Increase vegetable intake in your diet
Warriner says increasing the number of vegetables you eat is something most people struggle with. The recommended intake for vegetables is five to nine servings a day. Davis says roughly 9 percent of adults meet intake recommendations for vegetables.
“Try sneaking this in for breakfast and snacks, as typically these are eating times people aren’t consuming vegetables,” Davis said. “Mix a variety of vegetables in with your eggs, throw some in your hash browns, or sneak some into your muffin or pancake batter.”

Even if you are making healthy choices, you can eat too much of a good thing.
“Serve up one serving size at a time,” Davis said. “When you have a stopping point — besides the bottom of the bag, you make your brain stop and ask, ‘am I still hungry’? You can always go back for more if you want to.”
Do not give in to gimmicks
“If there were a miracle diet/supplement/vitamin, you wouldn’t be learning about it from social media first,” Warriner said.
Instead, she recommends using your money to buy nutritious meals.

This is the ultimate fantasy booking game. The goal is to create the best WrestleMania card possible – not necessarily to predict what WWE will do. That means we must play by the rules of our current reality. Everyone comes in their current (physical, emotional, psychological, etc.) state.
