B - Kick
A - Head grab
X - Run
Left + X - Run backwards
Right + X - Run forwards
X - Stop running
Up + R - Taunt #1
Down + R - Taunt #2
[Note: not every wrestler has two taunts]
==============
While running:
==============

B - Medium running attack
A - Strong running attack
==========================
While opponent is running:

(must be close to the left or right ring ropes)
Up + Y (drag opponent)

==================================
While locking up behind a standing
opponent:
===================================

While dragging opponent:
========================
Note: only a small window of time

Up + Right - drags an opponent forwards
diagonally).
If a drag is iniated from behind the
opponent in a back grapple position,
the opponent will be restrained in
a full nelson lock leaving the opponent
vulnerable to attacks from a tag partner
(due to interferences being frowned upon
by the referee, this technique is better

******SECRETS, TIPS & TRICKS******
========================================================
=====================
Fill Up The Budokan :
=====================
As Start mode begins, the Budokan arena starts off with many empty
seats in the audience. As the match booker for the night, it is
up to you to fill up every seat in the arena.
To fill up the Budokan arena, play close attention to the audience's
reactions during each match. As the crowd's reaction continues to
improve from match to match, so too will the number of people in
attendance.
Here are some of the most effective ways to excite the crowd:
1) Perform a wrestler's taunt(s) as often as possible. Some fan
favorites include: Akira Taue (loud reaction), Dan Kroffat
(loud reaction) Jumbo Tsuruta (will shout "OOO" with Tsuruta),
2) Perform a wrestler's special moves as often as possible to excite
the crowd. When a wrestler pulls off a signature move, the crowd will
respond accordingly.
3) Throw the opponent out of the ring.
4) Pull off a 2.5 -2.9 near-pin attempts as much as possible. As a
result, the crowd will stamp their feet shaking the arena with each
near-pin.
5) Go for longer matches. Think of the audience: the longer the
match, the greater the chance of having a better crowd reaction.
6) Participate in every match to ensure the highest crowd reaction
possible (this should be a no-brainer).
7) Bounce wrestlers off the ring ropes. The crowd will cheer loudly
each time a wrestler is bounced off the ring ropes. Fun and effective.
After the fifth match has ended, Giant Baba (All Japan's legendary
booker wrestling legend and founder) will review the success of the
night's show based on your decisions as a booker. The higher the
reaction, the greater Giant Baba's review.
====================
Tag Team Cheap Shot:
====================
In a tag team match, run towards the opponent's tag partner (not
currently tagged in) and hit them with a Lariat or Clothesline.
If done correctly, the tag partner will fall to the canvas outside
the ring creating a small window of time for your tag team to attempt
a pinfall or submission hold without any outside interference from your
opponent's tag partner.
The lower the opponent's health, the longer they'll remain unconscious
outside the ring when hit with this trick...
==========================
The Running Attack Glitch:
==========================
After the opponent has been knocked down, stand at their feet with a
little space in between and wait for them to get up.
As the opponent begins to get up, their back will be turned for a
couple seconds creating the perfect opportunity to hit the
opponent from behind with a strong running attack (I recommend Stan
Hansen's Lariat).
If timed correctly, the running attack will connect and the opponent
will fall to the ground only to return to their feet unexpectedly about
two seconds later.
And, to add insult to injury, if the opponent is against the ring ropes
when hit from behind with the strong running attack, the opponent will
bounce off the ring ropes to the crowd's delight!
Repeat the process and the opponent will be unable to escape this glitch;
dishing out an incredible amount of damage in no time at all.
[Note: for some strange reason, pinfall attempts are initially disabled
after an opponent bounces off the ring ropes from this glitch. To work
around this technicality, simply stomp the opponent once while they are
on the ground and then attempt to pin them.]
================================
Continue Wrestling The Opponent:
================================
After the match has finished and the referee starts to raise you
or your tag partner's hand, press Up/Down/Left/Right on the d-pad to
break free from the Referee's grasp.
If done correctly, it will now be possible to continue wrestling for a
few more seconds even after the match has ended.
