Can't believe people will say No Mercy is too slow but then praise '06 as some kind of GOAT. Fucking three second lockup animations before every grapple, stiff movement, momentum meters that hardly ever budge (unless you dive as a babyface in which case it automatically fills completely, nice balance). These matches drag on forever then end via DQ when the referee walks into your punch and calls the match for it. Can't even bring myself to finish the story mode. I got to the Ric Flair submission match, beat him for an eternity getting every part red, and even then can't win because the AI on the hard difficulties mashes to get out of holds like crazy. I'd rather play Simpsons wrestling than this tortuous game.
