Gameplay

Ok I guess there are wrestling games that let you control your character. Controls aren't awful. Not great either, but much better than the trash heaps that Natsume and Hammerlock turned out to be.
View is isometric for some reason. Seems weird since the controls are not. Makes for some weird movement like pressing R or L lets you run toward the ropes which again is weird since it's so hard to tell where your opponent is in relation to the line you're on.
Moves are incredibly slow with long animations so it doesn't feel super responsive. Not my idea of fun anyway.
Moves include punch, kick, grab, and maybe another but I don't recall.

Level Design

Modes include Single Event, Tournament, and Ultimate Challenge. But let's be honest, it's all just a series of wrestling matches.

Theme

Licensed by the WCW so there are recognizable characters for those in the know. I don't know who these guys are but I can tell this isn't a no-name game.

Art Style

Ugly prerendered stuff. Reminds me of Pit Fighter. If Pit Fighter weren't a complete and utter piece of garbage. Would've benefited from about twice as many frames of animation.

Audio

Just crowd noise
