- A Monster's Ball match is a professional wrestling, hardcore match staged by Impact Wrestling. Originally, the key premise of the match was that all contenders were sequestered alone in a locked room without light, food, or water for 24 hours before the match. This stipulation is intended to induce extreme feelings of aggression in the competitors. Once released, the wrestlers fight one another in a no disqualification match, with the usage of weapons encouraged. Victory can be achieved by pinfall or submission, with the match ending as soon as one wrestler is pinned or submits (there is no elimination format). Due to the hardcore nature of the match, the Monster's Ball typically features numerous high spots. There have been 55 matches conducted by Impact Wrestling, with several unaffiliated independent promotions hosting the match as well. The match has almost always featured Abyss in some capacity. Having wrestled in 48 of 55 matches in Impact Wrestling and managing in one, it is his signature match. There are various weapons frequently used in the match, including thumb tacks, "Janice" (A board filled with nails, Abyss' signature weapon), and a bed of barbed wires. (en)
