Completely different play styles came out of two different characters with only one move set in difference, which is quite amazing. The cool thing is that my characters both play almost completely differently my first character depended more on speed and brutality, while my second character uses every aspect of his body to perform attacks, and relies more on pummeling the opponent with every attack in his arsenal. My second character had Submissions as his first fighting style, followed by martial arts and kickboxing. For my first character, I chose Street Fighting as his first style, and then chose Kickboxing and Martial Arts, respectively, next. Although not the fastest or most agile fighters, they use power and an arsenal of joint attacks, locks, and holds to make opponents scream for their mommies.

Even though they are kind of slow and susceptible to quick strikes, they are extremely deadly in tight situations, and their grappling abilities are the most lethal in the game. Wrestling: A combination of showmanship wrestling and technical grappling, these powerful fighters can use their incredible upper body strength to bring the pain with throws and body slams. They are masters of the environment, and can use anything around them, like walls, posts, fences, and speakers to let loose an unpredictable knockout blow. Martial Arts: What these agile fighters lack in power, they make up for with insane quickness.

Their Haymaker attack (L+Y) is the most destructive attack on the circuit.

Well, it didn?t manage to bring classic N64 grappler No Mercy to its knees, mostly because of the lack of a cohesive (or any) create-a-wrestler. And while the story was not something to write home about, the game itself put most WWE titles to shame, such as Smackdown! Here Comes The Pain, Wrestlemania XIX, and even recent Xbox offerings, which mostly includes WWE Raw and its sequel Raw 2. Bones snapped, cartilage was torn, and tendons were strained, all in the name of the American dream?no, scratch that, the thug?s dream: Money, Power, and Respect.
