Mayhem Mania 2022: Week 5

This. Is. Mayhem Mania!

It’s not just the ultimate fantasy booking challenge. It’s also a competitive thought experiment!

The object of Mayhem Mania is to craft the best WrestleMania card possible within the boundaries of our current reality. That means anyone WWE can book in a match is available to our players.

But this year, there’s a twist! Mayhem Mania 2022 is a two-night event! Night 1 will be the night for our traditional Mayhem Mania card featuring WWE-related matches. But on Night 2, we open the “forbidden door” and make it possible for our players to create matches with anyone outside of WWE.

The journey so far:
– Week 1
– Week 2
– Week 3
— Week 4

Every week, we invite players to make a change to one of the matches on our cards. They can:
– KILL a match entirely and CREATE a new one with other individuals
– SWAP out an individual or team in a match for another individual or team
– SWAP out an individual or team in a match with an individual or team in another match already on the card
– ADD an individual or team to an existing match

Not everyone is currently eligible to be used in Mayhem Mania. Some are being held in a place we lovingly refer to as SPACE JAIL. Here’s the current inmate count:

  • Avery Good
  • Chris Jericho
  • Commander Sterling
  • Jessie McKay
  • Rey Fenix
  • Sonny Kiss
  • Ultra Mantis Black
  • Will Ospreay
  • Ziggy Haim

Five moves were made on last Tuesday’s Wrestling Mayhem Show. Let’s see what changes our players made!

Move #1 (by Alex Kahrs)
ADD DARK Sheik to Matt Cardona vs. Nick Gage vs. Jon Moxley vs. Shane Strickland

Move #2 (by Beastman)
KILL Jordynne Grace & Jonathan Gresham vs. Lady Frost & Victor Benjamin vs. AJ Lee & CM Punk vs. Dr. Britt Baker & Adam Cole
and CREATE Zombie “Rick Rude” & Ricky Morton & Soul Taker & Lord Zoltan vs. Dink & Swoggle & Sunny (1993) & The Executioner

Move #3 (by The Rizz)
SWAP Danhausen for Johnny Knoxville

Move #4 (by DJ Lunchbox)
KILL Los Lotharios vs. Rey & Dominik Mysterio and
CREATE AJ Lee & CM Punk vs. Dr. Britt Baker & Adam Cole

Move #5 (by Mad Mike)
CREATE Ronda Rousey vs. Meiko Satomura

Move #6 (by Mad Mike)
KILL Dalton Castle vs. Warhorse and
CREATE Orange Cassidy vs. Danhausen vs. Abadon

So, with the moves from Week 5 of Mayhem Mania now in the books, let’s take a look at what our cards look like.
