Gameplay

Several Buttons are used. There are buttons to Block, Tieup (grab), Kick, Punch, Target Opponent, and Sidestep. He tieup button is used frequently as there are several grab moves. Combinations of buttons trigger various attacks and grab moves. The objective of the game is to reduce the opponents energy and complete the objective of each match. The objective of each match depends on the mode selected. Some matches allow weapon use while others require climbing a cage to escape the ring before the opponent, while others simply require pinning a player when their health is low.

Game Modes include: Career Mode, Tag Team Career Mode, Versus Mode, Tag Team, WAR, Lumberjack Match, Stable Match, Survivor Series, Gauntlet, Tag Gauntlet, Tornado, Tornado Gauntlet, Triple Threat, Triangle Match, Royal Rumble, Battle Royal, One on Two, and One on Three. Game Mode Options include: Hardcore match, Cage match, Last Man Standing, and Falls Anywhere. Win Modifiers include: First Blood, I Quit, Iron Man, Toughman Match, Finisher Only, and 2 out of 3 Falls. Depending on which of these are selected the rules for the game change.

There are also extensive creation modes. This includes Create-A-Stable, Pay-Per-View mode, Customizable Arena, and the Create-A-Wrestler mode. The Create-A-Wrestler mode can be used to add recognizable characters and wrestlers to the game.
