Took three matches to figure out the controls (and maybe a swift Google or two) but once that was out of the way, this was really fun. There is a bit of a formula to learning how the game works and you need to train yourself not to simply default to the WWE 2K games' way of thinking.

What's great is that the game is made to not just be a button mashing arcade-ish player like it appears, but has you breaking down your opponent bit by bit before you can win. Wrestlers can't just bust out their big moves from the get-go, they need to work their way to that point of momentum.

The most fun I've had with a wrestling game since Smackdown! 2
