Gameplay is also crazy fun once you get used to the controls. One example of something that surprised me was me seeing an opponent going to the top rope, then me going for a springboard attack, which resulted in me jumping off the ropes and hitting a frankensteiner on the top rope opponent right into a pin for the 3 count. shit was really satisfying to pull off.
That said, I still have barely any fucking idea how the reversals and submissions work in this game. A lot of time it just feels like luck mixed with the amount of skill points the wrestler has.
