Wrestlers are represented by Action cards, which are broken up into smaller 2d6 style tables divided into General, Offensive, Defensive, Ropes, & Specialty. Each roll on a table either results in the wrestler performing a move, or results in a roll on another table which will eventually result in a move or maneuver.

By it's own admission "The SPWG is a unique simulation of professional wrestling, and not a simple board game." The game contains no licensed "real life" wrestlers, but each unique Action Card is patterned to resemble popular wrestlers of the day and players were encouraged to name the Action Cards themselves after wrestlers that fit each card's wrestling style.
