Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is my first ever FAQ so i hope its useful, I made this FAQ because i think
and other people think that stats for some wrestlers are wrong (i.e. John Cena)
so here are some examples that i think are right for wrestlers. If you don't
agree with any stats feel free to contact me and tell me what you think should
be given to wrestlers, you will be credited for it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
General Things.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You may well wonder why I dont update this FAQ often, the reason is not because
i havent got the time, its not because i cant be assed, its simply because I
find it easier to up-date after a RAW and a Smackdown! Pay Per View (PPV). I
also up-date after a joint production. Also if you are looking for a specific
Wrestler, press and hold Ctrl and press F to bring up a search box, then type
the wrestler's name, you will be taken to him/her for their Stats. I hope you
enjoy this FAQ as much as i enjoyed making it and i hope this helps. Also with
the release of Smackdown Vs RAW soon, this FAQ will be updated less often as I
will need to focus on keeping up-to-date with that FAQ.

News.

This section will tell you news about PPV's and this FAQ, all the news from the
past will be kept.
10/10/2004 Announcement.
I will very soon be starting work on my second FAQ in this series for the
next installment WWE Smackdown! Vs RAW, if your planning on beating me to it,
then i suggest you read my copyright first, just so you will know what to
expect. This is my series and it belongs to me, there only needs to be one
stat FAQ and no more.
10/10/2004 New Copyright.
The Copyright has been re-written for this FAQ and breaking this copy-
right will result in Prosecution. If you want to keep a clear record and keep
a popular FAQ running, i suggest you play nice and not break it, i am a nice
guy but this is MY faq, no one elses and it is hosted at sites that only I have
allowed it to be.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Contact.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are now several ways to contact me about this FAQ and some are much
better than others. Some people maybe members of sites that i am also members
of and therefore may find it easier to contact me on there.
Please e-mail me with feedback about the change's and the FAQ its self and
please feel free to suggest some stats, and remember, no FAQ will ever please
EVERYONE, there are allways people who will dislike a FAQ for some reason.
[email protected] - Please e-mail anything to do with this FAQ here,
since i have a 1 GB limit, it will keep my other e-mails down.
[email protected] - Please only e-mail this e-mail if you need to,
since it has a low limit, i'd rather keep the space free.
[email protected] - Please e-mail this one if you need a fast reply for
help or if you want to leave feedback/recommendations.
[email protected] - Please e-mail this one only if its an absolute
must, since this e-mail is related to a game, i need to keep this one empty
for any e-mails from coaches and people.
Managerzone Guestbook - This is a great way to contact me if your appart of
www.managerzone.com, since every team there have a guest book you can simply
sign my guest book and leave comments and sugggestions so i can note them down
and reply quicker and easier.
If you join this game, feel free to ask me anything about it in my guestbook
or MZ e-mail since i probably know more about this game than i do about HCTP.

Team - Aberystwyth FC
If you do write in my MZ Guestbook don't be offended that i delete it, i will
have taken notes and replied, its to simply leave my guestbook low.
Good luck to all on MZ and feel free to challenge me to doubles!
Gamefaqs message boards - This is a way of contacting me, though it is very
unlikely that i will see it since i am barely ever on Gamefaqs anymore, i am
mostly on MZ managing my team and helping out there.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Who is Matt Lightning?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some of you may remember me from the SYM board as a code dude, i did do some
codes for HCTP but as people learnt to hack the disk, i was left with no choice
but to quit as i knew that people like Trigin would be able to do the codes.
If any hacker is willing to teach me how to hack, please talk to me on MSN
messenger. From now on, i shall be known as a helper, as i know alot of tricks
and glitches in HCTP and i know how to beat people efficiently. I never need
help about HCTP, but, just because i am human, i will ask for help when i
really need it.
The only game that i probably know more about is Managerzone football
(www.managerzone.com) which is a Football and Hockey manager game and soon the
release of MZ Racing, if you are members of MZ, please feel free to ask me
Questions about it since i know pretty much 90% of it and chances are i can
help you out. Here's the info you will need to be able to contact me on MZ

Explanation of Stats
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Strength - Strength is how much damage a wrestler can do to his/her opponment
example, Brock Lesnar can do more damage to Hurricane than someone like Rico
Brock Lesnar has 10 for Strength and Rico has 6 therefore Brock can do more
damage than Rico can. Strength does NOT mean who a wrestler can or can not
lift, this is determined by your weight class, Eg, If you play as a wrestler
who is a lightweight he can only lift lightweight and light heavy weight.
Submission - This determines how long some one can hold on a submission more
and how easy it is to make someone submit or for you to escape from a
submission. Example- Chris Benoit has 10 for submission therefore he can hold
the Crossface on for 10 seconds and has a better chance to make someone like
Randy Orton tap who only has 6.5 for Submission.
Endurance - This determines how much pain your Wrestler can take before giving
in, Also the rate of Strength Affects this so the Higher the Strengyh the less
moves needed to do the damage.
Technique - This is what Determines a Wrestler in Countering, So the higher
Technique a Wrestler has the more he will counter moves.
Speed - This is how quickly a Wrestler walks, runs and Climbs. If you have a
rating in speed of 9.5 or above then your wrestler will jump on top of the turn
buckle instead of climb (like Rob Van Dam does before he does the 5 Star Frog
Slash).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How to get EXP and how to give them to Wrestlers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To get EXP (Experience Points) you need to go through season mode, the more
titles you hold and the more matches you win the more you will get. You can
also get EXP by talking to people back stage, also you can lose some if you
react to them in the Wrong way.
To give them to your Wrestler you need to go to Season mode and start a show,
then go down to the T-shirt and press X, you will be taken to a screen and you
will see the Stats (Strength, Etc) you simply click on one and expand it to
how much you want, but the more you give to a wrestler the more points you will
need to expand Example - to get from 9 - 9.5 you need 90 EXP points and to get
from 9.5 - 10 you need 100 EXP points.
Tip - To get more EXP points you need to put difficulty level on Smackdown
level where you can change in options mode. Example - If your Wrestler earns 12
EXP points every match, if you change your Difficulty level to Smackdown your
Wrestler will get 24, that's Double of what your Wrestler got on Normal
difficulty.
You can also get EXP points using a Cheat Device like Action Replay (AR) using
a Cheat Device you can get your Wrestlers EXP to 127.5 for all of your Stats.
Also this is the only way to give Wrestlers that cannot be used in season mode
like Vince McMahon to higher stats. For the best, and i mean BEST codes for
Action Replay, Gameshark, Code Breaker, ect Visit

Updated Stats (an Example)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First off this is just a guide so you don't have to follow by these, if you
think that one wrestler has a over/under rated stat, please e-mail me and let
me know what you think they should have, I do not guarentee that I will use
your suggestions and due to so many e-mails i can not credit you as it will
take up most of the FAQ, Sorry.
Before we get to the stats, i'd like to mention that i removed a section which
warn you of spoilers, so if you don't want any spoilers, i recommend that you
do not read the intros of those that are involved at a PPV. If you read a
spoiler, it is not my fault, it is your own, an e-mail about this will only be
replied with a simple "I've mentioned it in the FAQ"

Smackdown Superstars.

Big Show - Big Show, 7ft 2inch, 500 pounds of destructive power. He almost
ended Kurt Angle's Carrer after a chokeslam from a 20ft (?) ledge. He is a
power house and deserves better endurance and submission stats.
Strength Submission Endurance Technique Speed OVR
Original Stats 10 7.5 9.5 7.5 6 81
Recommended stats 10 8 10 8 6 84
Booker T - The 5 Time, 5 Time, 5 TIME, WCW Champion and now the current US
Champion. The Booker man can get it done, just a slight change to strength.
Original stats 8 7 9 8 8.5 81
Recommended Stats 9 7 9 8 8.5 83
Brock Lesnar - Brocks stats are Perfect so you shouldn't change them. You might
want to change the Submission stats but that's all, no need change anything
else.
Original stats 10 8.5 10 9.5 7.5 91
Recommended stats 10 8.5 10 9.5 7.5 91
Bubba Ray Dudley - Got some good offence in on Taker at the GAB, also he and
his Brother's D-von and Spike defeated Paul London, Billy Kidman and Ray
Mysterio at Summerslam. Just add some strength and endurance mostly.
Original Stats 7 7 7 7 6.5 69
Recommended stats 8 7 8 7.5 6.5 74
Charlie Haas - Charlie, a raising star on Smackdown, he wears down opponents
at a decent speed. His strength needs improving and since his finisher is a
submission finisher (and a painfull one at that) he needs improvements there.
Original Stats 6 8 7.5 8 7 73
Recommended stats 7.5 9 7.5 8 7.5 78
Chavo Guerrero - Chavo takes out cruiserweights quite quickly, he also can make
people tap and can endure punishment, he needs small improvements.
Original stats 6 7 6 7 7.5 67
Recommended stats 7 8 7 7 7.5 73
D-Von Dudley - D-Von and his brother Bubba faught Undertaker at The Great
American Bash and lasted for quite sometime, thanks to some help by Paul
Heyman. They managed to wear down taker several times even nailing in the
reverse 3D. Up-date his strength and Endurance stats.
Original Stats 6.5 7 6.5 7.5 6.5 68
Recommended stats 7.5 7 7.5 7.5 7 73
Eddie Guerrero - Eddie held the WWE title for 4 months and unluckly lost at
The Bash. Though his loss was due to some bad luck, his stats need improvement,
He managed to survive JBL at Judgement day, improve his Endurance. He also can
wear down his opponents quickly and momentum can change hands quickly between
Eddie's opponent and Eddie himself. Update his Strength.
Original stats 6 8 7.5 8 7.5 74
Recommended stats 9 8.5 9.5 8 8 86
John Cena - John Cena's stats may well be the worst in this game, and with an
impressive performance against Undertaker on Smackdown (24/06/2004) I think
that back's me up pretty well. He also was WWE United States champion for 4
months but never lost it, it was striped from him, that title is still his.
Also his win/loss record is higher in the Wins. So i think i'm backed up by
quite a bit.
Original Stats 7.5 7.5 7.5 7.5 7.5 75
Recommended stats 9.5 8 9.5 8 7.5 85
Kurt Angle - Kurt wear down opponents pretty fast. Strength update! Angle also
Broke Scotty Too Hotty's ankle back in 2001 with the ankle lock and has made
several people tap, Submission update! Kurt also won an Olympic Gold medal for
free style Wrestling, you need alot of technique to be able to do that so keep
the Technique like it is.
Original Stats 8 9 10 10 7.5 89
Recommended stats 9 10 10 10 7.5 93
Rey Mysterio - Rey is a quick cruiserweight and his deftifying, Gravitational
law breaking move's do more damage than what these stats suggest, he once
allmost defeated Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship. Lets face it, Ray is
just not normal, so lets jump to work updating Ray's stats!
Original stats 5 7 6 9 10 74
Recommended stats 7 7 7 9 10 80
Rico - Rico Wrestles in an Unique way, though as we have seen he can get it
done with out needing to scare his opponents half to death. He needs strength
and endurance up-dates.
Original stats 6 6.5 6 6 7 63
Recommended stats 7 6.5 7 6.5 7.5 69
Rikishi - Rikishi is powerful and knows how to move that ass. He can wear down
opponents quickly and can with stand punishment. Update his strength and
endurance stats.
Original stats 7.5 7 7 7.5 6.5 71
Recommended stats 8 7 8 8 6.5 75
Rob Van Dam - RVD can entertain us with his high flying moves. He can wear
down opponents fast and can endure alot of punishment, he lasted Triple H
untill the sledge hammer. So update his strength and Endurance. After much
begging, pleeding and annoyance, i had to degrade RVD's Speed back to 9.5 along
with this quote "RVD is no Rey Mysterio" if you haven't allready guessed who it
was, it was Deadman1206, so if your out to get someone, get him, not me!
Personally i disagree with him and RVD IMO can be as fast as Ray Mysterio.

just mail me.

Ultimo Dragon - Up-date his Strength a little but nothing else.
Original Stats 6.5 7 7 7 7.5 70
Recommended stats 7 7 7 7 7.5 70
The Undertaker - Its the old undertaker, the dead man and he came back like
this at Wrestle Mania XX against Kane. He is the first person to pin Kane
cleanly with out cheating or Kane being Disqualified since Kane was unmasked
in mid 2003. Undertaker is yet to be defeated and didn't do the right thing at
the bash. He defeated the dudleys then went and filled up the encrypt himself.
Undertaker also wears down opponents quickly and effectivly. Undertaker was
screwed out of the WWE championship at Summerslam and i feel WWE are making a
joke out of Undertaker and Kane, WWE seem to think that Gimicks are not as
important as Wrestling where as it is.
Original Stats 9.5 9 10 9 9 92
Recommended stats 10 9 10 9 9 93
Undertaker - This is the Biker Undertaker who has some submission holds which
are effective. Improve his Submission. Taker also is quick meaning his speed
needs updating.

A-train - This wollie mamoth is a strong powerfull man with an impressive
debut match on RAW against Y2J Chris Jericho, he with stood Jericho's Offence
through out the match, it was only when Jericho applied the walls to make him
tap out. Therefore i suggest raising his Endurance and Technique.
Original stats 9.5 6 7 7.5 6 72
Recommended stats 9.5 6.5 8 7.5 6.5 76
Batista - Batista is a powerhouse, his strength has been shown many times, the
most recent was RAW on 20/09/2004 when he clotheslined Randy Orton, who had to
be carried out but later returned to complete the match with an RKO.
I suggest raising most of his stats due to his power.
Original stats 9.5 6 7 7 6.5 72
Recommended stats 9.5 7.5 8.5 7.5 7.5 81
Chris Benoit - He has beaten HBK Shawn Michaels and Tripple H Twice for the
world heavyweight title, once at Wrestlemania XX and once at Backlash, he
even defeated Kane at Bad Blood. Chris also wears down opponents quickly with
his German suplexes. Therefore his strength needs improvement. Chris also
won the Royal Rumble in 2004 and he entered as number one meaning you need
pretty decent endurance to survive 29 other men. He put on a great performance
at Summerslam and lost to Randy in a fair fight but lasted a great deal of
time.
Original Stats 7 10 8 10 8 86
Recommended stats 9 10 9 10 8 92
Chris Jericho - Chris Jericho has beaten the best in the buisness and he is the
first Undisputed champion in WWE history. He can wear down opponents quick and
also survive for long periods of time. He came close to defeating Edge at
Summerslam to become the Intercontinental Champ, Sadly it didn't happen.
Original Stats 7 10 8 9 8.5 85

Christian - Christian defeated Y2J at Wrestlemania XX thanks to the help of the
FDBBTBH (In Y2J's words) Trish Stratus. He did win TLC 1 and 2 with Edge
against the Hardy's and The Dudley's, so up-date a little.

Edge - Edge is back in WWE making an impresive comeback by defeating Kane at
Backlash, he survived Kanes offence. The following night Edge and Benoit
became World tag champions. Edge has also enjoyed sucess in the past with his
brother Christian being Tag Team champions several times and also won TLC 1&2.
Edge will also be joining Evolution to take Randy Orton's place Update his
Strength and Endurance.

Kane - Kane is a monster, since he was unmasked last year he has been on a path
of destruction, and no one has beaten him with out him being Disqualified,
them using a weapon, or someone cheating. Up untill Wrestlemania XX that was
the only way he was beaten, The Undertaker beat him with out any weapon, Kane
being disqualified or any form of cheating, Benoit has defeated Kane with a
straight pin fall, and as to my knowlage, Kane has only been beaten by Taker
and Benoit with no form of cheating.

Matt Hardy - Matt is a veteran, being involved in all TLC Matches, update his

Matt also got a victory over Kane at Vengance in a no DQ match.

Randy Orton - Randy is unstoppable, if you watched Backlash 2004 when he faught
Cactus jack you have got to admit his Endurance is way off. his stats need a
major improvement and if WWE keeps pushing him the way they are doing, i think
we may as well have his OVR at 100. I think were close to giving him 100 OVR,
He defeated Chris Benoit at Summerslam and became the youngest World
Heavyweight champion, Lets improve more.

The Rock - Not seen much Nowadays, he is too busy doing movies rather than

include everyone. Thanks!

Billy Kidman - Billy is a high flying Cruiserweight, who i think does most
damage out of all cruiserweights appart from Chavo. Billy is a bruital man,
one who took out Chavo Guererro with a Shooting Star Press, then to fall out
with his former tag team partner, Paul London, then to take out london using a
Shooting star press.

Cactus Jack - This is basically Mick Foley but as another gimmick, you saw him
at Backlash, you should know he is one darey person, he took Randy to the
edge and gave Orton the most brutal fight of Randy's life. Also Cactus Jack
should have different stats to Mick.
Recommended Stats 10 8 10 8.5 7 87
Carlito Carabian Cool - An impressive debut on Smackdown, his first match he

i have added his stats for you!
Recommended stats 6.5 7 7 7.5 7 70

Regal, he came out and attacked William and applied the walls, thus showing
the fans that Y2J was the clown. He then took part in the Bar Room Brawl back
in 2003 and he was played by non other than one of todays top RAW superstar,
Eugene! These stats were sent to me by a fan of this FAQ.

Doug Basham - Also debuted too late to be in this game, so to make up for it,
here are some stats for him.
Recommended stats 6.5 7 7 7 7.5 70
Eugene - Giving The Game the finger at Summerslam was pretty funny, even though
he has lost his first match by pinfall, but not without help by Mr Man boob's
Ric Flair, Eugene will no doubt have a good future in the WWE and i look
forward for his first Royal Rumble appearence.

on Velocity and has challenged for the Cruiserweight title on occations. Will
he hold the title one day? Well Funaki is mostly known for his tag team
partnership with Taka Michinoku, they used to come out waving Japanise flags
and a microphone, then they would speek into the mic but nothing would be heard
for another second where a man would speek for them. Their mostly used quote
was Taka saying "We are EEEEEEEEEEEVIL!!!" then he would hand the mic over to
Funaki and he would say "Indeed!"

Heidenreich - Two Words, complete Psychopath, thats one way to sum up this mad

the hurst that Undertaker was in at No Mercy, little did he know that when
paramedics used the Jaws Of Life to open the Hurst, there was no Taker in
there, not a body.

Jeff Hardy - Fired due to failing a drugs test then refusing to go to rehab,
there's times when there are rumours going around WWE boards saying that he is
coming back at PPV's but hasn't so don't listen to them, Though i have read
on a site that he is involved with Kane/Lita pregnancy, this is false as he is
now under contract with TNA, though we might see him back in the future.

John Bradshaw Leyfield - The NEW WWE Champion JBL, He took a beating at the

used. I have every right to stop you posting this FAQ on your site and any
modification will be treated as a breach of copy right.
I will be making another FAQ for the next installment of this game and i am the
first auther of a Stat FAQ on Gamefaqs, therefore i have every right to stop
you from claiming my series, you may make a FAQ on other sites but no stat,
intro's or layout maybe the same.
If you decide to make a Stat FAQ for Gamefaqs for Smackdown Vs RAW and it is
posted, you have denied me the right to write my series and thus breaking my
Copyright, breaking copyright is a criminal offence and i will take all means
Necessary to make sure i can write my work, if that means taking you to court,
then so be it. I am currently Hard at work with my next stat FAQ and if i see
another up, get a lawyer, you decided to break my copyright you have to pay
the Consequences.
The sites that this FAQ is made for are for the use of the following sites.
www.gamefaqs.com - Main FAQ sorce.
www.gamespot.com
Any other sites appart from my own, which will then be noticed in the gamefaqs
version at the top, will be asked to remove it, if they do not, then you will
be taken to court.

Yes this maybe strict but as the Auther of the Stat FAQ series, i have the
right to continue it, so to make sure you are not taken to court for breaking
copyright, simply do not use this FAQ on your own site without permission and
do not wright a Smackdown! Vs RAW FAQ for Gamefaqs, simple as that.
And just to back me up, in real life all books written by authers are only
continued by that auther, did another auther wright a Harry Potter book? No,
so please leave my series alone and think of your own.
Thanks, Matt Lightning.
