Entrants alternate between teams every two minutes, giving the coin toss-winning team the temporary advantage in terms of numbers, before giving the other team the advantage with the freshest man and even odds. After two minutes, a member from the other team would enter to even the odds for the next 2 minutes. After five minutes, a member from one of the teams (usually determined by a coin toss, and almost always the " heel" team in order to provide heat) would enter the cage, giving his team the temporary 2-on-1 handicap advantage. The match begins with one member of each team entering the cage. Doors are placed at far corners of the cage, near where the opposing teams wait to enter, so the teams do not contact each other before they enter the match. The setup of the cage consists of two rings side by side with a ring-encompassing rectangular cage that covered both rings, but not the ringside area. The WarGames match consists of two or three teams, with between three and five participants facing off with each other in staggered entry format.
WCW used it originally in 1991 at WrestleWar and at five house shows during the 1991 Great American Bash tour and in 1992 at WrestleWar, before it became a traditional Fall Brawl event from 1993 to 1998. The final War Games matches under the NWA banner were at The Great American Bash in 1989 and a house show rematch at The Omni in Atlanta. The next year, it would be held during the Great American Bash Tour in 1988 at 11 house shows (one was released on the WWE Horsemen DVD). It would be held at three house shows later that year, once at the Miami Orange Bowl, once in Chicago at the UIC Pavilion and the other at the NWA's debut at The Nassau Coliseum on Long Island. The first WarGames match took place at The Omni in Atlanta during the NWA's Great American Bash '87 tour, where it was known as War Games: The Match Beyond. It was originally used as a specialty match for the Four Horsemen. WarGames was created when Dusty Rhodes was inspired by a viewing of Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.
