I.   Introduction

    After reading may other game FAQs, I too will issue the same warnings.  Do
    not steal this FAQ, please give me credit if you wish to use it.  You may
    use it freely, but DO NOT use this in any sort of game publication.  (That
    means you EGM!)  I do hope my move list will help you enhance your enjoyment
    of WCW Mayhem.

    If you are looking for general information about WCW Mayhem, you ought to
    check out cookinwiththerock's FAQ.  You can find it at:
    http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/game/24583.html
    His is the General FAQ, which is excellent.

    I have the PlayStation Version, but these moves should work on the N64.

     October 25, 1999

III.  Who is Sting?

     It is often a dispute between who is the franchise wrestler of WCW, but
     Sting can put up an argument for himself.  Even at 6'2", 260 lbs, Sting has
     the quickness of a cat.  Sting is a six-time WCW Heavyweight Champion.

     Donning black and white facepaint, many feared the one-time nWo Black &
     White destroyer.  Armed with a bat, he was tossing people out of the ring.

     He has three signature moves, but unfortunately two only appear in the game.
     The Stinger Splash is NOT in the game (big mistake, Tiburon), but the
     Stinger Death Drop and the Scorpion Deathlock are brutal on his opponents.

     With all of his accomplishments, it is clear that Sting is a legend in the
     making...

VI. Miscellany

   I'm too lazy to work on ASCII art, so if anyone knows of a program or who
   has spare time to do it, lemme know...

   When fighting on the hard level, it's harder to hit the grapple moves early
   in the match.  Stun them first, then hit them hard.

   Lots of moves Sting cannot do in real life.  Again, it makes me wonder if
   Tiburon actually watches WCW.  Stinger Splash is a necessity, the closest
   thing you can do is to run at the opponent in the turnbuckle and hit the
   Flying Body Press (R,S).  The opponent does stagger when hit though...

   I'm assuming that WolfPac Sting is exactly the same, but I prefer the black
   and white Sting.  He doesn't look like he has sunburn with that look...

   When fighting on the hard difficuly level, submissions are much quicker to
   end the match than to try to wear down the opponent.  This is helpful in the
   Quest for the Best mode.

   WHO'S NEXT?  I'll put up move lists for Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Billy
   Kidman, Ric Flair, DDP, Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Buff Bagwell and Scott
   Steiner soon.  I doubt I'll make any others unless people request them.  I
   hope to have the remaining characters up soon.

   I'm working on these as fast as I can, but I'm in school trying to finish my
   senior year in college, so be patient.  So if there is a time where there are
   no updates, you'll know why.  Feel free to e-mail me though...

   Thanks for all the e-mails BTW.  I try to make this FAQ as easy to understand,
   especially for those playing that don't really watch wrestling.  Thank Outsider
   for proofing these FAQs and correcting the move names.
