Consi Qualifiers: Only those who lost to the champion may wrestle for a place
Runner-Up: True 2nd; The wrestler that loses the finals will have to beat the winner of the bouts between all other wresters losing to the champ.
3rd: If the wrestler who lost in the finals also loses the True 2nd match, then he will get 3rd. However, if he wins, then the wrestler he beat will have to wrestle the winner of the bouts between the losers to the 2nd place finisher.

Championship Bouts: 10 Minutes (12 minutes for the championship match)

Takedown: If a takedown occurs within the first 2 minutes then the bout will be a straight 10 minutes.

Fall: In the first 4 minute period, if a fall occurs, then only that period is ended. The second 4 minute period will occur with the other wrestler having the chance to earn a faster fall.
Consolation Bouts: 6 minutes (3x 2 minute periods)
OT: If no winner can be declared by the ref then extra periods are wrestled.
Fall: 3 seconds (Appreciable length of time)
No Fall Winner: If there is no fall at the end of the bout then the ref will award the bout to the wrestler that shows the greater wrestling ability & aggressiveness when that wrestler has at least 1 minute of riding-time advantage.
