Gameplay
Gameplay includes fluid controls and unique movesets for each wrestler, though the movesets are small. Matches use a high-angle isometric view of the ring, with stamina bars displayed along the apron; an empty bar leaves the wrestler vulnerable to pinfalls. Modes include one-on-one, tag team, a three-on-three Survivor Series elimination match, and a championship mode where the player controls Yourself and must defeat all wrestlers. A two-player tag team championship mode is also available.
