The Dare Cup[]
Competed for at Battle of the Best, it is awarded to the winner of the tournament.
Originally named posthumously The Pillman Cup after "Flyin" Brian Pillman, it was changed to the Dare Cup once the Battle of the Best tournament migrated over to RAGE.
The winner of the cup is usually awarded the World Heavyweight Championship. The only exception to this was in the 2000 Battle of the Best tournament, where Adam Weiss defeated Wyndex to win the Intercontinental Championship. The World Champion at the time, The Saint, was defeated in the semi-finals that year.
Only one man - TCE - has entered the tournament as the Champ, and walked out still the champ.
This last Battle of the Best was won by current World Champ, Candles, who destroyed the Cup after the final. It is unknown if there will be another Dare Cup, but it is likely.
