What is a Gauntlet Match?

A Gauntlet match is a quick series of one-fall one-on-one matches. Two wrestlers begin the match and are replaced whenever one is eliminated (by pinfall or submission).

After a predetermined number of wrestlers have competed in the match, the last person standing is named the winner.

How is this one different?

Our match is different because win, lose or draw, Chris Hero will be the wrestler remaining in the ring until the time has been completed.

Do I have to pay to watch?

All who donate $10 or more are invited to come to the Cross Body Pro Wrestling Academy in Waterloo for an exclusive meet & greet with Chris Hero and to attend the match.

All donors will receive a digital download of the match before it is shared for free with the world.

The match will be available to the general public later in the summer.

Where and when will the gauntlet stream?

We are looking into the possibility of providing a live stream to donors who cannot attend the match when it takes place. This is to be determined based on the internet capacity of the venue.

Why should I donate?
