Beast Pit Match

Okay, it is a dome that goes around the ring.  It's big enough so that there is enough room for brawling between the ring and dome.  The dome is separated into eight segments, four of the segments are covered in barbwire, the other four segments have the weapons hanging on them.  Normal weapons are chairs, cheese graters, kendo sticks, 2x4's covered in barbwire, chairs covered in barbwire, kendo sticks covered in barbwire, baseball bats, and baseball bats covered in barbwire.  The rules are simple, you got to make your opponent submit or beat him so bad that he will not get up.  Last Man Standing rules are in effect.  One more rule, the dome is no one gets in or out.  It does not get lifted until a winner is determined.  Other than that, anything goes.

This match was created from the mind of Lovecraft.
