The match features a large group of participants, who attempt to scale the turnbuckles and grab the cases. Grabbing the case and leaving the ring with both feet touching the floor determines the four winners. Inside the cases are:
- A world title (Undisputed) shot
- A secondary title (FCW, Hardcore, X-Division, Television and Intercontinental) shot
- A tag team title (Undisputed Tag Team) shot
- A pink slip that forces the owner of the case to be fired

WarGames match[]
A WarGames match consists of two teams of either five men each facing off with each other in staggered entry format. The setup of the cage consists of two rings side by side with a giant ring-encompassing cage that covers both rings, but not the ringside area. Doors are placed at far corners of the rectangular cage so the two teams didn't come into contact before they were supposed to.
The match begins with one member of each team entering the cage. After five minutes, a member from one of the teams (theoretically determined by coin toss, but always the heel team) would enter the cage, giving his team the temporary handicap advantage. After two minutes, a member from the other team would enter to even the odds. Entrants alternated between teams every two minutes, giving the coin toss-winning team the temporary advantage in the numbers game before giving the other team the advantage with the freshest man and even odds.
Once all ten men had entered the cage, what was referred to as "the match beyond" began. Both teams brawl in the cage for as long as it took until every member of either team surrendered or was knocked unconscious. There was no pinfall or submission and no disqualification, which often led to brutal and bloody confrontations.
