A lot of flavor in beating your friends
I played at an arcade that offered free-play so I didn't need to sink any quarters for it, but I found it to be my most played multiplayer game in terms of rounds that night. Small roster but all the attacks feel impactful when slamming the opponent. The controls are like 5 buttons and some require being pressed in specific combinations to perform additional maneuvers, but not to the extent of a Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat, it's a simple kind of fighting game. It also has a tag-team mode so you can even play with a friend.

What's not to love in this game. It's not wrestling it's not a fighter it's somewhere in-between. It's very flashy and cartoony. It really embellishes the wrestlers ability in fun ways. All the characters looked digitized and look very much like themselves which is pretty great for it's time. Plus all the commentary is straight up classic. That's a high risk MANEUVER. That was cheap. lol
