The ugly bastard child between HCTP era Whedonian shenanigans and numbered SvR Snyderian ludography. Directed by the Russo brothers. Wrestlers during entrances don’t slide around like eels anymore but it wasn’t mocapped humans moving at 0.8x speed like in 2006 yet. There was commentary but still drowned by the OST playing during matches (OST isn’t as good as HCTP but the main theme will play at my wedding and funeral). Playful, radically tubular name but it’s the same one that will fall into corporate yearly numbering just a few months later. Season mode was sort of like in HCTP but not really, you could only go for the top or midcard title for some reason, and didn’t have the genuine cutscenes from its successors. You could only store 3 finishers! That's not 7 nor 1!
Roster was the 2004 roster, meaning it fucking sucked as literally half the personnel tried really hard to be somewhere else and the friend who picked character sixth had to choose between like Garrison Cade or Chuck Palumbo.
Played pretty much the same but sans the crazy backstage, implemented actual Royal Rumble mechanics but everyone just picked the few Super Heavyweights in the game who could just lift people up, except Cristian who always picked Andre, the only ULTRA heavyweight in the game, because it was his game. Fuck you Cristian stop showing everyone my created wrestlers you piece of shit
