The Spiritual Successor of WCW Backstage Assault! 😅 I was able to play this back in the day, along side Here Comes The Pain! -- I was only interested to play as The Sandman on BYW2. Thanks for the review man! It brings me back. 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

Is it me or am I hearing an 8bit version of through the fire and flame by dragonforce?

It isn't you.

This made me pull out my PS2 and lo and behold I own this game. So thanks for that.

[@AHeroAlmost]

Didn’t expect to see this in my recommendations ! Love your wresting game reviews very underrated ..

[@wolfhurricane897]

To also answer your question about the roster. Everyone except for Kelvin Finn is a real person. The reason you probably never heard of them is because names like Ruckus and Ryuji Ito are only in backyard wrestling leagues, deathmatches, and CZW. Which alot of people don't know about that much.

[@ForeverMagnus]

I didn't know Ruckus was in a video game!!!!! He wrestles locally in my area as part of BLK OUT

[@chrislowee8475]

Zandig is John Zandig. He’s the owner of CZW and he wrestled as well.

[@pixelblades]

I got so hyped when I saw BYW 2 review. Your videos are always entertaining to watch. Keep up the great work! 👍

EJ just watched it, so that’s where the “jeeeesus!” Quote in the opening of Botchamania came from. Haha!

[@cjthehaasman9954]

The other characters are all wrestlers from CZW or XPW you've probably never heard of. Also if you do some research on Ruckus, You'll realize he is a WAAY BETTER wrestler than New Jack

[@ThrashAD720]

Yea he clearly didn't do any research on the roster.

[@jonathanparker1774]

Was he the same Ruckus from Wrestling Society X in that Cryme Tyme ripoff tag team?

[@ThePradana]

Zandig is CZW legend. I was surprised there is El Drunko on the roster haha

[@evanhanley6437]

There was so much more going to be added to this game that would have made it more fun to play and would have been more polished. Like the first Backyard Wrestling game, Kevin Gill told me a lot of things about this one. -Jeff Hardy and other wrestlers were going to be in the game. Jeff was independent in 2003 and Kevin got on really well with him when he was making the game but never got in touch after he gave his permission to put him in the game. His model and his moveset were complete but was cut. He can be seen very briefly in an early trailer. CM PUNK was also going to be in the game but he was in Ring Of Honor at the time. RAVEN was also considered but he was contractually obligated to TNA at the time and Kevin really wanted him to be in the game, but it fell through. -Someone from Interscope Records approached him and said FRED DURST would like to be a part of the game. Yep, FRED DURST! He refused immediately saying it completely goes against the games tone. -Kevin actually voices four wrestlers in the game. -The custom characters you fight in Talk Show Mode were made by one of the character modellers. Kevin hated them. -Eidos was going through structural and management changes at the time and they also didn't like the game. This is why the game didn't turn out fully polished. -The commercial for the game, which features ICP, was drastically different. The master of "OH MY GOD" himself, Joey Styles, was originally going to provide a voiceover for the commercial. I have a playlist for the game like the first one which has many things that were cut or changed from the final game. Here it is: kzbin.info/aero/PLLRkqQjo9BqM5p-EQNzZRgtIzSKhxb4CE

[@matthewlane518]

I'm surprised New Jack would be in the same game as Vic Grimmes

[@carlcarlington7317]

It’s so weird to think that Europa universalis guys, the guys who made hearts of iron, made the clown wrestling game

[@skaterat3322]

ruckus is a old detroit rapper that used to open for them when they first started out
