Yeah, a massive one of 20 wrestlers. Trouble is, they had two match options. You could have a single, or a single in a cage and that was it. What idiot made that decision whilst simultaneously having the Nasty Boys, Money Inc and The Headshrinkers in the game, I don't know. I also thought it was idiotic not having Perfect and Yokozuna's finishers not having a pin mechanic incorporated into them. That was a feature of WWF arcade games as far back as Wrestlefest in 1990, so there was no excuse for it not being here. Or a submission mechanic for the sharpshooter.

Ironically Raw had only one submission finisher (sharpshooter) lol while this and Royal Rumble had a good variety.
