From BoardGameGeek

Rediscover the over-the-top excitement and pandemonium of wrestling's golden age! Join the Diabolical Wrestling Council and challenge a colorful cast of superstars in search of the ultimate prize – the DWC World Championship. Gather a group of friends and pummel each other with words and moves … maybe even a 2×4! Become a Victim of Diabolical Dave's Whimsical Management Decisions! In Diabolical Dave's Rumble Throwdown, you build your own pro wrestling superstar and compete to become the DWC World Champion. Nearly endless combinations of wrestling styles, gimmicks, moves and attire all contribute to your success or demise and ensure you'll never play the same way twice. Playing as a Heel or Face, you'll trade on the ultimate currency in pro wrestling – your popularity or infamy – to add moves and attire to your repertoire. You can even take on a manager to help you out. In an exciting race to the top of the promotion, you exact vengeance with one-shots, weapons, and angles. Bribe other players to run-in for you and even interrupt their plans along the way, just don't get caught by the ref or you might be disqualified for cheating! Make things even more interesting with a little roleplaying, giving your wrestler some personality, as you work your way through the opener, midcarder, and main eventer tiers.
