| Name | Type | Description | Participants | Win Condition |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single Match | Standard Stipulation | The default one-on-one bout and the ruleset every other mode builds on. | 1 vs 1 | Pinfall, submission, count-out or disqualification |
| Tag Team Match | Standard Stipulation | Two teams of two share the ring under tag rules, with a legal man, a corner to tag, and the referee enforcing the five count on double teams. | 2 vs 2 (up to 4 vs 4 in multi-team variants) | Pinfall or submission by a legal competitor |
| Triple Threat Match | Multi-Person Stipulation | Three competitors, no tags and no disqualifications, so the first fall wins and any wrestler can break up a pin at any time. | 3 | First pinfall or submission |
| Fatal 4-Way | Multi-Person Stipulation | Four wrestlers share a no-disqualification ring with the first fall taking the match. | 4 | First pinfall or submission |
| Royal Rumble | Gimmick Stipulation | An over-the-top-rope elimination match with timed entrances and a full 30-superstar field. | Up to 30 | Last remaining competitor after over-the-top-rope eliminations |
| Elimination Chamber | Structure Stipulation | Six competitors are sealed inside a circular steel structure with four pods, released at timed intervals until all are active. | 6 | Final survivor after pinfall or submission eliminations |
| Hell in a Cell | Structure Stipulation | A no-disqualification match fought inside a roofed steel cell that encloses the ring and the ringside floor. | 1 vs 1 or tag teams | Pinfall or submission anywhere inside the cell |
| TLC Match | Weapons Stipulation | Tables, Ladders and Chairs: a no-disqualification match where the ring is surrounded by stacked furniture and the win usually comes by retrieving a hanging championship. | Varies, typically 3 to 6 | Retrieve the suspended title, or pinfall where no title is on the line |
| Ladder Match | Weapons Stipulation | A championship or contract is suspended above the ring and the only way to win is to climb a ladder and pull it down. | 2 to 6 | Retrieve the suspended object |
| Steel Cage Match | Structure Stipulation | A fenced steel cage surrounds the ring with no disqualifications inside. | 1 vs 1 or tag teams | Pinfall, submission or escape over the cage |
| Falls Count Anywhere | Hardcore Stipulation | Pins and submissions count wherever the fight goes, so the brawl spills up the ramp, through the crowd and backstage. | 1 vs 1 or multi-person | Pinfall or submission at any location in the arena |
| Last Man Standing | Hardcore Stipulation | No pinfalls and no submissions: a wrestler wins by keeping the opponent down for a ten count. | 1 vs 1 | Opponent fails to answer a ten count |
| Iron Man Match | Endurance Stipulation | A timed match, traditionally thirty or sixty minutes, in which every pinfall, submission or count-out scores a point. | 1 vs 1 | Most falls before the time limit |
| WarGames | Structure Stipulation | Two rings are placed side by side inside a single roofed cage, and two teams enter one member at a time on a timed interval before the match officially begins. | 4 vs 4 or 5 vs 5 | Pinfall or submission once every competitor has entered |
