Instructions
Select a game mode. You can select one on one, tag team, triple tag team (with three members per team instead of two) and Royal Rumble, a twelve man match where the last man standing is the winner.
Select a wrestler using left and right on the directional pad.
Use the directional pad to move your wrestler. Press "A" to punch and "B" to kick.
Press the "L" and "R" buttons to perform illegal moves, such as eye gouges, on your opponent. You can only do these moves when the referee is unconscious or during the Royal Rumble, where a referee is not present.
Press the "X" button to perform a grapple. Once you have started a grapple, rapidly tap the "A," "B," "X," "Y," "L" or "R" buttons to fill the bar above your wrestler's head. When the bar is filled, a move is performed. The move performed depends on the button you press.
Press "Y" to run. Press "B" while running to perform a dropkick.
Press "Up" on the directional pad when near a turnbuckle to climb it. Press "A," "B," "X" or "Y" to perform a senton bomb on your opponent.
Press the "R" button to perform your wrestler's finishing move when your opponent's health bar, located at the bottom of the screen, is red.
Press "X" to pin your your opponent when he is on the ground and his health bar is empty.
Press "A" and the directional pad towards the ropes to climb out of the ring. In a tag team match, pressing "A" and the directional pad towards your opponent will tag them in. In a triple tag team match, pressing "Select" will tag a partner in.
Press "X" to pick up a chair, located on the outside of the ring, and "A," "B" or "Y" to use it. If the referee sees you use the chair, you will be automatically disqualified.
