How to Do an Irish Whip in WWF WrestleMania X8

The Irish Whip is a maneuver performed by professional wrestlers by swinging an opponent into a ring's elastic ropes. Wrestlers use their opponents' momentum against them by attacking in a variety of ways, including punching, kicking and throwing them. Wrestlers can also use the Irish Whip outside of the ring to launch opponents into hard surfaces, such as a barricade. Players of "WWE WrestleMania X8" can Irish Whip their opponents by pressing a simple button combination. "WWE WrestleMania X8" was released exclusively for the GameCube in June 2002.
