Wrestling Organization Online (WOO) is a wrestling-themed strategy game that seeks to make a real-world impact on the wrestling industry by helping to financially support retired wrestlers. It has been adding features since 2022<ref>Wrestling Organization Online Celebrates 2 Years! https://hive.blog/hive-167922/@wrestorgonline/wrestling-organization-online-celebrates-2-years</ref> and uses the $WOO [[Hive Engine]] [token](/wiki/L2-Token) as its primary currency.

## Overview
A Booker's License is required to play the game, which currently costs $10 USD payable in [HIVE](/wiki/Hive-Cryptocurrency) or other HIVE supported cryptocurrencies.

Players must collect Wrestler [[NFT]] cards to be able to compete in auto-battler matches with other players. Cards have various categories (e.g. Male, Female, Tag Team, Manager), stats (e.g. Strength, Speed), costs, and special abilities. These NFTs are available in card packs, purchasable from WOO or on Hive's secondary market.

Winning a match earns $WOO tokens. WOO also uses Land NFTs, allowing Land owners to participate in earning $WOO for any match held on their property.

## Support for retired wrestlers
WOO partners with real-life retired pro wrestlers. In exchange for using their likeness on NFTs and for promotional and networking support, WOO offers its partners 10% of sale proceeds from the game<ref>WOO Pays Perry Saturn 10% of Earnings https://hive.blog/woonft/@wrestorgonline/woo-pays-perry-saturn-10percent-of-earnings</ref>, as well as 100% of market trading fees for NFTs bearing a partner's likeness<ref>What the hell is Hive?
