Section 1
WWF WRESTLEMANIA has been in the arcades for a extremely short time. It has, however become an instant hit.
What it lacks in the amount of characters it more then makes up for it by giving each character extreme depth from the amount of
moves each possess. The Sony Playstation version is practically identical to the arcade
version other than a few minor differences. If you are a fan of fighting games or the WWF this game is definitely for you.

Section 2
The game consists of eight characters, the characters
appear like this on the startup screen...
Doink Razor Ramon
UnderTaker Yokozuna
Shawn Michaels Bam Bam Bigelow
Bret Hart Lex Luger
-------------------------------
The move key for this game is as follows...
[]=Square
/\=Triangle
()=Circle
X=X
------------
Punch=[]
Super Punch=/\
Kick=X
Super Kick=()
Block=L1 or L2
---------------
U=Up
D=Down
B=Back
F=Forward
QCT=Quarter circle forward starting at the down position on the control pad.
HCT=Half circle forward starting from the Back position on the control pad.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Among other things, all characters share some basic (but important) moves.
Run- Press []+X. Once you have started runnig you can alter the direction you are heading or by pressing an attack button your player will lunge at the opponent and knock them down.
Power Throw- Press /\+(). Only a few characters possess this, they are Bam Bam Bigelow, Yokozuna, and Lex Luger. It is non reversible if you connect with it.
Hair Grab- /\ (when near a knocked down opponents head). This allows you to pick up your opponent from the canvas and inflict some more damage.
Grab- FF /\. Once you connect with this it enables you to do a number of things. You can start a mini-combo, a regular combo, a throw move, or a High-Risk Move. There are multiple ones in the game but these work for all characters. They are FF /\ and DD ().
Hip Toss- BB []. An excellent move. Learn it and love it.
Rope Toss- BB /\. Throws your opponent into the ropes which leaves them open to a brief attack.
Shove- L1+[]. Good move to use when fighting multiple characters.
It basically free's some space for you.
Turnbuckle Leap- UU right next to the turnbuckle. Once on top,
press any attack and you will spring forward. You can guide your body at the opponent.
Flying Drop Kick- /\+X then press ()- You must run then hit the Super Kick.
Flying Body Dive- /\+X then press []. You must run then press Super Punch.
Reverse Throw- Either FF [] or DD (). In my opinion this is the most important thing to learn. When grabbed press in the motions listed (careful, they differ with every character). You will then reverse there attack and look really cool.
Power Up- Do two 360's away from the opponent. By doing this you will enable a power up that will last for 5 seconds. All moves will then do 4x damage, except for super combos.
Speed Up- Do two 360's toward the opponent. By doing this you will enable turbo spped for around 5 seconds.
Throw- B+[]. This will throw your opponent when they are runnug at you.
Super Combos- Timing on all combos is odd. It will take you multiple tries to learn them, but once you find the timing, they all become easy. All characters have them, they can only be done when you grab your opponent and your combo meter is flashing, you can get it to flash by doing a lot of special moves. You must then enter the initiator and go from there.
NOTE: ALL COMBOS START FROM A GRAB.
Mini Combos- These can be done anytime after a grab, they can be reversed but they can take away a lot of energy.
Fatalities- Yes, there are fatalities. The only known one is for the UnderTaker.
