Ultimate (sports entertainment)

Ultimate is a brand of sports entertainment that combines elements of professional wrestling and physical challenges. Like in professional wrestling, participants are very much 'characters', with designed personalities and staged feuds and conflicts. The actual contests, though, are usually - but not always - genuinely competitive.

Premise and terminology
Ultimate sees competitors staged against each other - either individually or in teams - in a matches. A match consists of several rounds, and, in turn, a round is either a bout or a game. A championship might consist of a series of matches over several weeks or months, with participants competing against each other either in a round-robin league format or in an elimination tournament.

Bouts
A bout is fundamentally a wrestling match.
