RETIREMENT OPTIONS(?)
This is the mother of all promotions, and is not to be taken lightly.

In the case that a wrestler is within reach of moving beyond his/her exhausting XHCWF career into retirement, those deemed worthy will have the option of moving onto something far greater for all to see. #1 If you followed the career of Jesse Ventura at all, you will realize that professional wrestlers are not exempt from pursuing political aspirations with a fair possibility of success. #2 With talent, drive and the proper agent, it could be possible to turn a wrestler into either a comedy star or an action hero, sometimes both, through a series of Hollywood movie productions. #3 More than one great wrestler has followed up a stellar career with a move into the industry of physical fitness and body building as an entrepreneur and celebrity.

It does not matter what a star of this calibre moves on to, this is a Hall of Fame character! To purchase this promotion, the wrestler must have a win record of greater than 60 percent; In addition he or she must have held the Amateur, Hardkore, Heavyweight Belt for a period of time, including one appearance at PPV (winning the belt at a PPV counts). In any case, the wrestler in question applies for the promotion and the Commissioner determines if the wrestler meets the necessary criteria. If the wrestler does, he or she is asked to make sure he or she wants this promotion; if the wrestler still does, he or she is retired and placed in the XHCWF Hall of Fame, with a special notation marking him or her as having Gone on to Greater Things (whatever they may be). For those of you to whom the above three options seem bleak or bland, your own options/ideas will be considered at great lengths. Cost $100,000.
