I. Description

In this guide, you will learn about all of the features that you can use in the
backstage areas in SD: HCTP.  You can only find these areas while competing in
a Hardcore match.

Here are the descriptions that I will use when I describe each area:

~ Whip - Describes objects that you must Irish Whip your opponent into by
pressing the circle button and then the direction you wish to whip them in.

~ Weapons - Weapons that you can find in a particular area.  They can be picked
up by pressing the square button.

~ Climbable - Represents specific objects that you can climb in that area.
These objects are climbed by pressing the direction toward the object you wish
to climb and by pressing the triangle button.  To climb down certain objects
(namely the ones that are higher up) move towards the edge and press [] square.

~ Interactive - Certain objects that the wrestler can actually interact with
specifically.  You use or active these by pressing the square button and the
direction towards the object you desire to interact with.
