One could propose their constitution, but only one will be left standing in the end. One may also propose alterations/additions to the current constitution(s).

I started thinking about....I'm not sure if we should call them PPVs or not, but the special events

Poll to Pole: Matches determined by crowd polling

Civil War: An event based around large parts of the country being used as stipulations. There might not even be championships at stake here

I was actually thinking land/offices could be divvied up by belts, if we get to the point where laws and policies can be made independently of the constitution, but that's up to you guys, primarily.

So what does say the current scene of Championship Belts look like?

It's your standard regional/match type championship setup. I'm thinking authority gained would go in this sort of hierarchy.

[Insert home nation/region] Champion holds more authority than that of a regular wrestler in a given region. Always has more authority than someone who has thus far never had a belt before. We may not get into this, because very few of our wrestlers are actually from the same place, and we mostly operate at the central arena anyway.

International Champion has power over Regional champion, because it applies to all terrestrial regions.

Tag-Team Champions would beat out International, because it applies to the match type itself and not the regions of the planet. Therefore, they hold authority as some of the top match-type contenders in existence, not on the planet.

Hardcore Champion/Royal Rumble Champion beats out Tag-Team, because it's the same achievement but not split between people.

Bustermania Champion beats out all others, because it means you've beaten (Or, by proxy beaten) all the other wrestlers in the federation, in the same way that being the Arena Champion in Oblivion makes you responsible for thousands of deaths.

Ooh, we have a hardcore championship? (Also I don't think we should have a royal rumble belt, but that's a match for a title shot at Bustermania, or maybe even the belt itself just like the real Royal Rumble. Also it shouldn't be called the Royal Rumble.)

And the way you described the Bustermania Championship makes it sounds like it's won via bracket tournament, like King of the Ring, or Cruiserweight Classic. I like that idea. I like me a tournament.

I may be misremembering, but I'm pretty sure there've been a few royal rumble matches (Or ones of similar concept and structure) off-WWE, which didn't seem to be about belt qualifiers, but were just big things that they threw because they had a bunch of big names willing to do the show but no real plotlines or matchups to work them into. Then again, I don't think I remember seeing any episodes that happened directly after those matches, so I could be wrong and their only purpose could legitimately be for special event qualifiers. I figured they'd be something that happens whenever a lot of wrestlers are disagreeing on one particular issue, and/or Managantamos has a lot of extras lesser-known, Non-Filibusters that he wants to promote alongside his new, biggest show and increase his viewership.

Speaking of Non-Filibusters, I'm really wondering what FF was called before it was Filibuster now, especially considering Bustermania was already a thing, but maybe that's just the generic term. I can edit it to something different later. Bustermania itself is definitely a big tournament, sort of, with the entrants every Universal Spaceyear being determined by the amount of confirmed wins they have overall (if it is a very big federation, which Earth is not.) The best in a federation would be awarded the Federation Championship, and various Federation Champions are pitted against the champions of other galaxies in a similar manner for the Universal Championship. Assuming Earth is among the only noticably inhabitted planets in its galaxy, Alien travellers probably come to Filibuster and other remote federations all the time for an easier/shorter path to the Intergalactic Title stage when they can make the trip.

Right I was waiting for @Silver Carrot to post, giving him a chance to react to a person declaring law of the jungle and another literally taking the mcguffin and running away with it somehow while surrounded by people who'd be angry at this and then I got distracted by other stuff. I'll post something along the lines above tomorrow or so, within 24 hours.

As for the title picture, I'd suggest getting rid of the Royal Rumble/Hardcore belt since it's usually not a good idea to oversaturate titles. Instead the Rumble can be used to determine a champion should a title be vacated or determine a #1 contender or give someone some outstanding privilege or another. As for the tag belts, I'd add the notion that they technically have more power than the Intercontinental champion but only if they operate in unison and via uniform agreement to play on the usual unlikely pair aspect.

@Sombrero

The only battle royale/royal rumble match that hasn't been for belt contendership or for the World Championship itself is the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royale, and no offence to the legend but you don't want to model any theoretical matches off of that match.

@Zero Hex

Sorry, I drove down to England this weekend. I'll get a post up now, though.

The Andre the Giant Battle Royale Memorial Match made Baron Corbin into the star he is today. He wouldn't have won Most Metal Athlete Award if he didn't win the Andre the Giant Battle Royale Memorial Match.
