... lumberjack match?

... a match that ends in no contest?

Or do you have to resort to the Circuit Editor to book this?

Circuit Editor.

Lumberjack match you just say it was a lumberjack match.  Easy enough.

No contest, book a double countout, then edit it to say no contest.  Boom.

I think I may be the only person left who doesn't really care much what happens during the matches when I book, just the endings. :)

Yeah, that's what I thought.

I sometimes use what happens within a match when I do match writeups, but most of the time I just write what I intend to happen.

Sometimes I wonder why we don't just write circuits from scratch. Saves us the trouble creating exports :)

How about King of the Mountain match?

Four way ladder-match the closest?

The reason I don't do it from scratch is because I use TNM for structure.  It keeps everything together for me, takes care of contracts, throws me curveballs with people quitting, injuries, etc.  And plus, though I run booked, occasionally TNM gives me something I never thought of doing and is better than my original plan, so I run with it.

And yes, 4-way ladder match would be the best bet for King of the Mountain.

wow ... almost exactly how I use TNM ... although there are plenty of times where I leave a match unbooked. Usually for the matches that are not associated with a storyline.

And I didn't know you could do a 4-way Ladder Match. That's cool. Now I have something else to use :)
