"What a ripoff!"
This game was released nationwide on July 28, 1995 (dedicated) and is now
beginning to slowly appear across the country. Lots of new things have been
found including the following:
* Fatalities!! The Undertaker has a fatality!
* More info on charging up your combo meter!
* Bigger, better combos!
* Strategies on how to win at WWF!
* Correction on who really is Doink

"Anything can happen here in the World Wrestling Federation!"
There are (only) 8 characters to choose from. They are as follows:
1) Doink The Clown
2) Razor Ramon
3) The Undertaker
4) Yokozuna
5) Shawn Michaels
6) Bam Bam Bigelow
7) Bret "The Hit-Man" Hart
8) Lex Luger
Yes, I am also aware that other wrestlers should have made this game. Big
Daddy Cool Diesel, The 1-2-3 Kid, Jeff Jarrett, and Sid are a few that come
to mind. Any of these over Doink, no doubt. But, hey, I don't call the
shots, and when the game was in development, I wsa informed that these were
the top wrestlers at the time or so the programmers thought.
The character selection screen is as follows:
/---------------------------------\
| | |
| Doink | Razor Ramon |
| | |
|---------------------------------|
| | |
| The Undertaker | Yokozuna |
| | |
|---------------------------------|
| | |
| Shawn Michaels | BamBam Bigelow |
| | |
|---------------------------------|
| | |
| Bret Hart | Lex Luger |
| | |
\---------------------------------/
Also as with the Mortal Kombat series, random select is Up+Start. It says
at the top, "CALLA RANDPER" short for call a random person, I suppose.
It would seem to make better sense if it said "RANDOM SELECT" or something more
understandable.
You can also do a manual palette swap. To change color for your character,
hold the joystick to the left or right (depending on which character you
choose) and hit one of the buttons other than block. If you choose Doink,
The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, or Bret Hart, you hold the stick to the left
and hit a button. And with Razor Ramon, Yokozuna, BamBam Bigelow, and Lex
Luger, you would hold the stick to the right. I don't have a handy list of
all the colors for all the fighters yet, so go play with this one. Not worth
my time to record all the colors.

"I think he's cheering for me, McMahon!"
Every character has shared basic moves. Here are the basic crucial moves
needed to survive in Wrestlemania.
punch:
Your basic, normal, punch. If you hit punch repeatedly while you are right
next to someone, you will sometimes do a mini combo, which ends with you
throwing your opponent.
power punch:
A more powerful punch. With most of the characters, various extensions to the
arm will appear. I will note this in the individual character description.
kick:
Your basic, normal, kick. You may can do a few mini-combos with this.
power kick:
A more powerful kick. With most characters, you can also have various
extensions similarly to the power punches.
run: P+K
After executing the run, you hold down the buttons and you can choose which
direction to run in (left or right). Much more intuitive than a badly placed
run button in another Midway game. Also, any moves done after bouncing off
the ropes are considered High Risk, and do double damage.
power throw: PP+PK (some characters)
Only Bam Bam Bigelow, Lex Luger, and Yokozuna have this throw. This throw can
be blocked, but once hit by it, you cannot reverse this.
hair grab: PP (near opponents head while on the ground)
After doing certain knoc
