I’ll never forget it. When I returned to becoming a wrestling fan in 2018, that’s when I heard of the AKI games for the first time and I decided to give them a try. I bought this game and No Mercy before realizing it was the broken, glitchy version, and I had A LOT of fun with them. I know these were first, but me playing the Day of Reckoning games before hand, I was like “No Way!”, this is the same engine and I felt right at home. The graphics didn’t distract me too much as the gameplay was super good. That’s when I got my motto nowadays, “Gameplay over graphics”. Still have fun with them today. Great games for sure.

You failed to mention the best part of the game -that you can hand hand pick every single strike, move, and taunt that your wrestler does.

I was a big fan of the eliminations in the Royal Rumble mode. Using strong strikes and apron grapples felt more authentic than the 'mash the buttons' mini games that came in later wrestling games. It's a shame the AKI games were the only ones to use this system, as it could of been picked up and developed upon further down the line, in the SvR series for example. Also, the threat of possibly being eliminated at anytime with one well timed strong strike in the right position of the ring really added to the feel of the dangers of being in a Royal Rumble match, rather than just making sure you don't take too much damage so you can easily win a 'mash the buttons' scenario.

But the first thing I did was fill up all the CAW slots! Right now, I'm gonna continue on my Road to Wrestlemania with Kane so I can unlock HBK! To this day, WM2000 has my favorite roster EVER. That's why I prefer it over "No Mercy"... also because I'm an entrance guy, and WM2000 has FULL entrances. The only game that comes close is WWE 2K14... which I haven't actually played yet. The only one that comes close that I actually own is SvR 2006. But I'll have 2K14 soon enough!

I went back to almost nightly before bed to play at least 2-3 matches on my N64!

I’m sorry but the create a wrestler was a huge part of this game and you made it sound like it was just an average add on. There were plenty of faces that could be used to make WWF wrestlers who weren’t in the game, as well as make a multitude of WCW wrestlers since their move sets and taunts were in the game. First one I made was Goldberg and I was able to make his moves more accurate than what was in WCW vs NWO Revenge. The CAW in this game was amazing.
