Stealing Special Moves
Wait until you one of the letters in the "WWE" icon is red; this means you have a special move. Stand next to your opponent. Instead of performing your special move, as you would normally do at this point, perform your opponent's special move instead. To do this, hold down the buttons "L" and "R" while pressing "A" and "B" together.
Certain Victory
Choose whatever set of moves you like when creating a wrestler, but make sure you have a strong head-butt to win fights easily. Change the Strength attribute to the highest setting. Now choose "Move Set," then "Standing" and finally "Front Grapple." Select the "Trapping Headbutts" for a Light Grapple move and make note of what button is used to perform the move. When fighting with your created wrestler, stand next to your opponent and press "A," then repeatedly perform the "Trapping Headbutts" move; you are forced to stop after 20 head-butts. Repeat this move four times and pin your opponent to win the match.
Longer Combos and Extra Cash
