1. Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Battle Royal mode play so slow?
It is because the system has alot of things its trying to do at once.
There is a way to fix it though. Use the secret ring select code
to select the Turbo ring. Start the Battle Royal and it will play
at normal speed.
Why do none of the hidden characters have their real
life finishers?
THQ simply ran out of memory. The only wrestlers that have their
finishers are Dean Malenko, and Chris Benoit.
Why is there no FMV like PSX version?
Again THQ didn't have the memory left for it.

7. Signature Moves Rating
Hollywood Hogon- Horrible move. Even though its his finsiher they seem to
always to pop up from it. Stick with regular moves to win
matches with him.
Bret Hart- The Sharpshooter,(just like any other finshing hold in the
game), when slaped on, you are guarrentied a win. It also
looks pretty damn cool.
Sting- Just like the sharpshooter, but Sting has better moves than
Bret. Use the Death Drop to set them up for the Death Lock
Lex Lugar- Sexy Lexy, or what ever the women are calling him, is the
most useless character in this game.
Giant- It looks very damaging, but(I don't know if its the way I
play or what) I have had people kick out of it.
DDP- I also have had people kick out of this move. Also
sometimes the opponent will always land near the ropes.
Raven- He's damn cool in real life, but this move(for me at least)
is hard as hell to pull of. When I get it to work I always
get a pin.
Saturn- Easy to pull, damaging, and they haven't kicked out of it
yet. Nuff said
Goldberg- Use the Jackhammer and you win. Its that simple.
Kevin Nash- Big man, if you watch wrestling, when you see him pull his
powerbomb in this game you can't help but laugh. Even
it looks nothing like real life, its very damaging.
Scott Hall- Good, realistic looking move. If your not carefull you
will throw them under the ropes. To make sure this doesn't
happen put your back into the corner then execute the move.
Curt Hennig- Good move, but it doesn't pin instantly like he does in
real life. Be sure to adjust for the fact that they easily
could me thrown under the ropes.
Macho Man- Good move, but if you want it to look life-like, you won't
like it. Because move of the times when it connects when
they are on the ground they pop up. If you hurry you could
make it look real.
Rick Steiner- Where the hell is the bulldog? This move is just a freakin
Spear, you can't finish anyone with that. But in this game
it get the job done.
Scott Steiner- Its a submission finisher so its easy to do. But with the
Nitro graphics engine it looks pretty retarded.
Chris Jericho- Finally he is in a game. Lion Tamer is a good looking
submission hold. Thats really it.
Brian Adams- Damaging move most of the time gets the pin. I don't know
what his real finisher is, if someone knows please tell me.
B. Bulldog- Good move, same results as Saturn. Would have liked to
have seen a powerslam at least.
Booker T- Same results as Saturn.
Dean Malenko- Looks good and its a submission. Simple isn't it.
Wrath- Where the hell is the Meltdown, thats got to be the coolest
move ever.(Besides the Jackhammer). Beat Down is a really
boring move, but it finsihes them thoush
Ultimo Dragon- Steiner Recliner, looks crappy, but wins the match.
Kidman- This is the guy that pissed me off. I can't belive that
they didn't use the shooting star press. DDT is a good
finisher in its own right though.
Disciple- Instead of this move being a Stunner the decided to use the
Diamond Cutter instead. For some reason no one has kicked
out of this version of it.
Chris Benoit- Cool looking submission. The only thing about it is the
you don't do it to the opponent when they are on the ground
, you do it when you are standing up. I quess the made it
that way so it looked real.
Scott Norton- Why didn't they give him Nash's move. How hard would that
have been. Beat Down is boring but once again gets the job
done.
Konnan- Lion Tamer instead of the Tequila Sunrise, how crappy is
that?
Jim Neidhart- Another person with a spear? Does anyone know what this
dude's real move is?
Roddy Piper- Crippler Crossface wannabe? Still it looks cool, and its a
submission hold.
Buff Bagwell- Does a Hennig Plex, and it has the same results. I really
wish they had the Blockbuster in this game, because if any
of you have seen it on PSX, its an awesome move.
Kanyon- Who's better than Kanyon? Everybody! I don't get why the
people over at THQ decided to give him the Edge. See
Hall's description for details.
Alex Wright- In realy life the German Suplex is not good enough for a
finisher, but in this game it get the job done. I have had
people kick out of this move before though.
Eddy Guerrero- The same problems that plaqued the other wrestlers with top
turnbuckle moves, affect Uncle Eddy. But this move is very
powerfull.
Van Hammer- Same as the other people with the Beat Down.
Stevie Ray- That Beat Down move is getting on my nerves.
Scotty Riggs- Cloverleaf, Texas style. Thats really it.
Horace- See Da Man's description.
Rey Mysterio Jr- After Goldberg, and Sting, little Rey(In my opinion) has to
be the best wrestler in this game. See Curt Hennig.
Lodi- I think only a couple people have noticed the joke that is
being played on us, that is Lodi. He is a Billy Idol
wannabe. Has any seriously looked at what Idol is spelled
backwards.
Sick Boy- Spear. Nuff said.
Disco Inferno- Where the hell is his Chartbuster. The DDT will do. Its
just as hard to pull of as Raven's though.
Ernest Miller- If this man is the greatest, why does he have to steal
Chris Jericho's move?
Barbarian- This guy is a bigger retard than the Giant. See Alex
Wright for move description.
Meng- Barbarian and Giant where stupid, but Meng is the cream of
the retard crop. He is one of the thousands of wrestlers
in this game with the Beat Down.
Fit Finley- See Saturn.
Reese- This guys moves are the Giant, and Nash put together.
Chave Guerrero- At least THQ got smart and gave him a DDT, instead of the
Beat Down just because they couldn't make his move.
La Parka- La Porka. See Goldberg
Eric Bischoff- Eric Jerkoff. See Macho Man.
Gene Okerlund- See Lex Lugar. It is kind of sad, because I would rather
play as Mean Gene than Lex Lugar.
Miss Elizabeth- After Kimberly, this has to be the hotest woman is WcW.
See Macho Man.
Arn Anderson- A very good wrestler, even though the DDT is so hard to
pull off.
Bobby Heenan- Its cool to see that THQ didn't waste syxx's Buzzkiller
animation.
Kimberly- If you saw this woman naked you would know what everyone is
fussing about. They should have given her the Diamon
Cutter.
Larry Zbysko- Crippler Crossface, what more is there to say.
Sonny Onoo- I hate this guy. In real life and on this game. But if
you have to play as him, the Frog Slash is only as good as
Eddy's, its no better.
Steve McMichael- This guy suckes, but the German Suplex gets the job done.
Kaz Hayashi- Sharpshooter in hand Kaz, not only has a stupid name but he
can't even get his own ring entrance.
Jimmy Hart- Mouth from the South, is even more annoying to play as than
he is to listen to.
Rick Rude- For obvious resons he does the Hennig Plex. See Hennig.
Mike Enos- Why are the wasting memory with this jobber. See Saturn.
Psychosis- He is another waste of memory considering his finsiher is
just a regular move in this game.
Juvi Guerrera- Buzzkiller instead of the 450. It just doesn't seem like a
fair trade to me.
Rick Fuller- Yet another jobber wasting memory. And to add insult to
injury his move is Beat Down.
