Inspired by Matthew J. McPherson's one shot role playing game Actual Cannibal Shia LaBeouf, Joaquin has crafted yet another one-session game of wrestling madness to confound Frank and Chuck. For this game, the duo is tasked with stepping into the shoes of beleaguered billionaire and owner/operator of All Elite Wrestling Tony Khan and picks up immediately following the media scrum of All out 2022.

All eyes fall upon the newest creative director of the WWE to see if he can set up the perfect main event for a WrestleMania taking place in the shadow of Hollywood, California. Will Paul be able to book Dwayne Johnson against his cousin Roman Reigns, or will he have to settle for an ascendant Three Star General to close out their biggest show of the year?

For this off-season game, Chuck and Frank assume the role of Papa H as they play a cooperative one sheet RPG that seeks to answer that very question. Inspired by the one sheet RPG Potato by Oliver Darkshire (@deathbybadger), Joaquin will serve as the game master who has crafted this very silly game.
