What’d you think?: I don’t remember much about playing this game. It was one of the first ones to come up when I decided to start playing these games in a random order to avoid predictability and burnout. As a wrestling game, it seemed pretty fine. There were life bars that didn’t quite tell you whether or not a pin or submission would actually win you the match, and there were a bunch of ways to cheese the AI. After taking my chosen wrestler, (Eddie Guerrero Jr, if I recall correctly) to the top of the cruiserweight division, I got bored of defending my title and chose a match I hoped to lose (though, at the time, had too much integrity to actually throw). It was a 4-way rumble match, and I was the 2nd wrestler tossed from the ring. Bleh.
