Wrestling sim where you pick from WWE, SmackDown, and ECW rosters—this entry marks ECW's franchise debut with wrestlers like The Sandman and CM Punk. Combat centers on grappling, strikes, and a revamped struggle submission system that changes how tap-outs work. You'll assign each wrestler a primary and secondary fighting style from eight archetypes: Showman, Powerhouse, High-Flyer, and others that tweak move sets and stats. Weapons expanded to include guitars alongside chairs and tables. Arenas span pay-per-view events like WrestleMania 23 and SummerSlam, plus weekly show venues. The roster varies by platform—some wrestlers appear only on specific consoles. Classic legends share the card with current stars. If you want deeper customization than prior years and don't mind platform-locked content, it delivers that.
