A Ladder Match is a type of professional wrestling match where the objective is to retrieve a suspended prize, usually a championship belt or contract, hanging above the ring. Wrestlers use ladders to climb and reach the prize, while also trying to prevent their opponents from doing the same. The match often features high-flying maneuvers and intense physicality, as competitors may use the ladders as weapons. WWE is well-known for popularizing this match type, which adds an exciting element of risk and strategy to the competition.
