just choose one of the following wrestlers and follow the path
to the WWF Title:

to show up on stage or stay backstage, choose to show up. Chris
Benoit should say "I'm the best technical wrestler there
is, just prove me wrong!".

career. Accept to form a tag team, then find the other member

team. Once Edge and Christian make it to the PPV to fight the
tag champions, a special sequence will play before the match.

the backstage area and proceed to tease them, calling them "reek-a-zoids",
etc. Then the two will deliver a Con-Chair-To to the unfortunate
champions and leave them laying.

match and put their fists together, as they have done on television.

against at RAW, another individual will call you out, talking
about how people are talking about you being closest to the WWF
title. Instead of being given the choice of coming out or staying
backstage, Kurt Angle will ride down to the ring in a milk truck.
He will stop just short of the ring, fling two cartons of milk
at the person in the ring, then proceed to climb atop his milk
truck and drink milk.

will put him in the Angle Lock.
Steve Austin: After Vince announces at Wrestlemania that he will

to Vince. Kurt Angle is nearby, wearing the small cowboy hat he
once wore on WWF TV. Austin will talk about how Vince and he will
always be friends and proceeds to hug Vince.

at Wrestlemania that he is the special referee. Rock will talk
about winning the match, then finish it off with "If you
smelllll... what the Rock..... is cookin'."

at RAW. He will speak in Japanese.

CPU wrestler will just walk back into the ring and you will win
the match by count out.

will follow you. When the timer reaches about five, run into the
ring, and your opponent will walk down but will not get there
in time, thus winning you the match.
Easy Light Heavyweight belt
Start a season with a cruiser-weight that is not champion.
Trash talk on RAW with whomever it is, then fight him and defeat
him. Next, on SmackDown no matter whoever comes out, stay in the
back. When you find William Regal, he will offer you a chance
to win the Intercontinental Belt, but underneath it will say "I'd
rather fight for the Light Heavy-Weight belt". If you use

instead of "Light Heavyweight".
Easy Last Man Standing match
Keep giving your opponent a Clothesline ([Run]
+ [X]), and when you get a special use it as quickly as possible
([L1]). This is best done with any powerful wrestler. You
will see the referee counting when your opponent's arms are totally
spread out.
Easy Table match
This trick works best against the CPU. At the start
of the match, pick up the nearest table and throw it out of the
ring. Then, pick up the other table and walk over to a corner.
When your opponent walks towards you, press [Down] + [X]
to set up the table and push it towards your opponent. Sometimes
you may hit your opponent with it -- if that happens just keep
trying different directions with [X] until it works. When
your opponent is on the table, quickly press [Triangle] to
run towards and climb up to the top turnbuckle. Do a diving move
off the table by pressing [X] + D-Pad. You should
put them through. If they get off, just try again. This can also
be done in a TLC match to do extra damage to your opponent, and
you can also do it off a ladder.
Easy tag team victory in Story mode
When pursuing the tag titles in story mode, the easiest
way to win is to beat your opponent down for short while then
tag in your partner. Afterwards, go outside and attack your opponent's
partner. After he's been beaten down, go to the apron and press
[R1] to beg for a tag. When you enter, your opponent will
tag in his partner, and you will have him so worn down that you
have one SmackDown dot. Perform your finisher and pin your opponent
(unless its a submission hold).
Easy tag team victory
The moment you start, tag your partner and throw the
opponent out of the ring. Beat up your opponent when the ring
out time gets to about five seconds. Your partner will slide back
in the ring. Keep beating up your opponent until the timer gets
to ten to win.
When the match starts, jump out of the ring and throw yourself
into both steps. Then, lay them in front of your opponent's tag
space area. After you get a special, do it to him. Pin him where
your partner can run at you opponent's partner while he is stuck.
Note: Use the big box on the left in the crowd to also block him.

not give up unless your finisher is a submission move.

Submission match without having a submission move as a finisher.

the People's Elbow twice.
