In-Ring Actions
**Controls indicated are for the XBox controller

Running Clothesline - While running (pressing Y), press A while approaching the opponent to unleash a devasting clothesline.

Irish Whip - Grapple the opponent (pressing or holding B) then press the Y button while moving the LS toward the designated direction


Springboard Dive - Run (pressing Y) toward the ropes while inside of the ring, then either press or hold down B upon/before touching the ropes. In the current build of the game, this maneuver is a Springboard Moonsault


Cimbing the Turnbuckle - Press Y in the direction of the turnbuckle


Low Blow - When beginning to stand up from grounded position, hold RB to remain in a crouched position; while crouched, press the strike (eg A) button


Varying Grapples - Depending on whether you tap or hold down the grapple (eg B) button, you can access both light and hard grapples, respectively


Maneuvering the Ring - While moving the control stick toward the ropes, you can exit the ring and mount the side of the ring by pressing RB on the controller. To move inside of the ring, tap RB and move the control stick toward the apron


Corner Grapple - After Irish Whipping the opponent (pressing Y toward the corner) into the turnbuckle, grapple them with the B button. In the current build of the game, this maneuver is Snake Eyes


Finishing Maneuver - Currently, the only signature in the build is known as the Burning Hammer, which involves the opponent taking a hard plunge onto their neck from the upright position; this is executed by holding down the B button to initiate a hard grapple, then tapping A and B simultaneously
Putting it all together!

Youre all good Bison it is what I was thinking it was

@snake It is due to inconsistent frame rates. At this point, I think it's based on luck. I apologize, I wish I could be more help.

Whats the timing for countering it seems very inconsistant

I believe it is a button mashing minigame, still.

how do you kickout?

I'm glad it had a use for you! Good luck in future matches!

Thanks you. Rating this the highest I can. I forgot how to do a finisher, so this came in handy.

I would absolutely love that to be honest. DoR2 was probably my favorite game of the era.

I wish there was a way to swap the actions for A and B. Better yet, consider using the button setup from WWE Day of Reckoning 2

I'm honestly not certainly. It's been a while since I've played PWX and subsequently updated this manual. I'll put that on my list as a To-Do in the near future. Thank you, xV3LLx.
