Game Play

In Exhibition mode, each player can select two different wrestlers; one to be the participant in the ring and the other to be the cornerman at ringside. Each player can have his or her participant wrestler constantly have his or her cornerman wrestler attack his or her opponent or even double team his or her opponent. Occasionally there will be two, three or four other wrestlers who will come into the ring to either assist or interfere.

In The Royal Rumble mode, each player can select one wrestler and try to eliminate as many of the other wrestlers in the Royal Rumble as possible without being eliminated himself or herself.
