In general, such a small number of fighters is discouraging. And before the start of the fight, the athletes run out to the ring, actively pose, and at this time the commentators vigorously introduce them. As in the case of WWF RAW, each fighter has his own personal characteristics of strength, agility, speed, etc., which affect the course of the battle. A lot of funny, comical movements and specific strokes that cannot be repeated in real life create a relaxed atmosphere, a feeling of unreality, just for getting a buzz. Instead of intense fights, we have to take part in a reckless carnage. But that's where the similarities to MK end. But the gameplay is accompanied by cool sound effects and is well commented. The referee is absent in the ring, as well as the tedious measurement of forces. All other techniques and strikes are combinations and work in certain situations or after pressing a certain sequence of buttons. And these are four blows - two types of kicks, a hand and a block. In order to maintain the arcade spirit, it was decided to simplify controls to the level of fighting games. And the Undertaker has a real "Fatality" - he pushes the opponent into the coffin, which then goes "underground". Also, "blood" flies out of each wrestler when hitting, however, all kinds of food flies out of Yokozuna, from the clown skittles, from Bret hearts, etc. If the athlete does not receive any damage during the fight, he will be praised "perfect" (flawless victory in MK). The similarities with Mortal Kombat don't end there. In the second case (Tag Team), both gamers are included in one team in order to defeat 4 opposing teams.

For two-player games, there are two more modes - one-on-one and two-on-two. In the second case, from the very beginning you have 2 opponents at the same time, at the end there will be 2 1-on-3 matches and at the very end you will have to survive the Battle Royale - eight-on-one, however, there are no more than 3 opponents in the ring at the same time. In the first case, we will have 4 fights in 1-on-1 format, then two 1-on-2, and for the final victory we will need to survive in the last one-on-three match. All previously encountered types of matches were reduced to the Intercontinental and World Wrestling Championships. If earlier we fought until the first defeat, and in order to win it was necessary to pin the opponent to the checkmate, now we need to prevail in two rounds out of three, and it is enough to simply smother the opponent as coolly as possible - this is an end in itself.

The fact is that under the wraps of wrestling there is a typical fight, not a sports competition. It's not for nothing that I started talking about fighting games.
