In Memory of Owen Hart
----------------------
The World Wrestling Federation and Acclaim Entertainment would like to
dedicate WWF Attitude to the memory of Owen Hart. Owen loved the
wrestling business and lived to entertain both in and out of the ring.
He was a consummate performer and a very special human being. If the
legacy of a man's life is measured by the lives he touched and how
much he is loved... then a big piece of Owen Hart will live on in all
of us.
Owen James Hart
May 7, 1965 - May 23, 1999

Do You Have ATTITUDE?
---------------------
When it comes to competing against the elite athletes of the World
Wrestling Federation you better have attitude! Because these mat
maniacs don't back down from any challenge. They don't fear any
fight, and WWFATTITUDE has more ways to battle than you ever dreamed
of! If you want to challenge the best, you better bring something
extra to the ring. It takes more than knowing powerful special moves
and humiliating finishing moves. It takes more than a willingness to
take on the crushing blows of the long and wrenching Career climb, or
mad melees like Gauntlet, King of The Ring or Cage matches. You need
a certain pride, a certain arrogance, a deep feeling in your guts that
you're the best grappler in the ring. You gotta be rude, crude and in
the mood to feud: You need Attitude!
A note about Gender: Throughout this booklet, small effort has been
made to make the text "gender neutral". You know, littered with "his
or her superstar" and the like. If you're among the many females who
love wrestling, you may have the great sense and good grace to pardon
these lapses and realize that deep down, it's not simply about men or
women or even someone like Goldust- it's about the joy of great big
people beating up on other great big people! Thanks, man.
It's Star time!

SELECTING SUPERSTARS
--------------------
After selecting the number of players and the match type, select your
superstars. Use the DIRECTIONAL BUTTONS to scroll to the desired
superstar and press the (X) BUTTON to select, or press R1 to have the
CPU randomly select a superstar. Continue until you have chosen all
the competitors needed for the selected match type. (Depending on the
match type, you'll select the superstars you want to control, those
the computer will control or have random ones assigned). Up to four
players can select the same superstar, but be aware that the second
selection will be considered an impostor. In Career mode, you select
one superstar to guide through an entire season. In all other
matches, Player 1 selects CPU superstars.
Note: In case you were wondering, CPU is geak-speak for Central
Processing Unit, the main brains of a computer. In this manual, it
means a computer-controlled superstar.
CHOOSING CREATED WRESTLERS
--------------------------
If you've created and saved any wrestlers in Create A Wrestler (see
page 19 for details), you can load them for use in any game mode. If
you choose a Created Wrestler, you will go to the roster of saved
wrestlers on your Memory Card where you can select which one you wish
to bring into the ring. If no Memory Card is present or you haven't
saved a created wrestler yet, you automatically get the default
Created Wrestler.

this, not you, so I can say what I want, and I say there's just too
many of them! You don't believe me? Just take a look!

CAREER
------
This mode is for the real wrestling fan, the kind of player who's not
satisfied with simply beating a few frenzied freaks and calling it a
day. In this mode, you go through an entire WWF season, working up
from a rookie in last place to winning the European Championship belt.
After capturing that title, Career lets you continue to compete for
the title in the Intercontinental division, and once that's earned, in
the Heavyweight Championship division. By the time you've played
through the Career, you're among the elite who can beat just about
anybody! After you've beaten the CPU a few times, invite your friends
over for a whipping, because this time around the Career can be played
with up to 4 human players.
ABOUT CAREER MODE
-----------------
You begin at the bottom, an untested rookie ranked 20th. You'll start
off where all rookies start off: House shows. As you prove yourself
and begin to move up in rank, you can start to show your stuff on
Shotgun Saturday Nights. If you keep winning, pretty soon, you'll
find yourself flirtin' with the fans and TV cameras on Sunday Night
Heat and Monday Night Raw. Ultimately, your skilled superstar will be
eligible to compete in the coveted monthly Pay-Per-View matches, where
you have a chance to prove yourself before the most devoted- and
demanding-fans in the world. PPV matches include fan favorites like
In Your House, King of the Ring, SummerSlam, Survivor Series, Royal
Rumble, and of course the ultimate PPV, Wrestlemania! Once you're
ranked #1, your next PPV match will be for an awesome honor: the
European championship Belt! If you win the belt, you'll keep your #1
ranking, and then have to defend your belt to prove you're not a paper
champion. Five successful title defenses will do the trick. You will
then enter into the bottom (#15 ranking) of the Intercontinental
competition, where reaching a #1 ranking ensures you a chance at the
Intercontinental Championship belt. Say you've earned the first two
titles. Feeling pretty good, starting to believe you can beat anybody
right? Well take a breather, brother, because you've got to start
another round of competition if you want to prove you've got the
complete package it takes to win the top belt: the Heavyweight
Championship belt! Think you can take all three? Good luck! Better
hit the Training Room hard and often, amigo!

FINE POINTS
-----------
House, Shotgun and Heat matches - House shows are the beginning.
Shotgun and Heat shows are televised but they don't include the same
level of fanfare that a Raw or PPV would. These matches are worth 1
ranking point. They take place in smaller, less impressive
surroundings. Hey, you gotta start somewhere, and for a beginner,
that place is the bottom!
Raw is War - This is the great televised Monday Night show you love.
There is a random chance this match will be a specialty match. This
type of match is worth 1 ranking point.
Pay-Per-View - This is a special televised event. These matches have
the most flash and include Superstar Intros. This type of match is
worth 3 ranking points, so there's plenty on the line.
In Your House - Compete against fellow superstars in a gruelling
specialty match.
King of the Ring - This will be an 8 man tournament. This particular
event doesn't end until the player has either lost 1 of the 3 matches
or won all 3.
SummerSlam - Random match types include: Weapons Match, Cage Match,
Triangle Match, Triple Threat, Stable Match or various other matches.
Survivor Series - Your regular superstar is teamed up with 3 other
superstars to create a 4 man team to fight against an opposing 4 man
team. If the player's team wins, his/her superstar moves up in rank,
even if the player's superstar was pinned during the match.
Royal Rumble - This is a 3O person, last-one-still-in-the-ring-wins
match. Players who win this match are automatically catapulted to a
rank of 1st, earning them the right to wrestle for the belt at the
next PPV, depending on the situation.
WrestleMania - This is a regular match. It is only played when a
player is attempting to win the Heavyweight belt.
- Page - 12
The Multiplayer Career
----------------------
In a multiplayer version, there is an initial War match to place
players in slots from 20th - 17th for 4 players (the winner is ranked
17th). After that, each player in rank order fights in a House match
against a randomly selected CPU or human player. Losers are deducted
1 rank and winners are advanced 1 rank. Shotguns are used to break
ties. If there are no ties, they are treated like House shows. Raw
matches are always 4 player War matches and worth 1 point to the
winner and -1 to the losers. When a player is ranked 1st he must
fight in a war match versus the other human players to prove why he is
the number 1 contender if he wins, he will have the chance to take on
the multiplayer career champion for the Heavyweight belt. If that #1
ranked player loses, the player's ranking is deducted by 3. All other
superstars advance 1 rank.
TAG TEAM CAREER
---------------
The Tag Team Career is similar to the regular career model except all
matches are tag matches, as your team battles to gain the Tag Team
Championship belt. This match can be played with the players on the
same team or on separate teams.
Exhibition Mode
---------------
Choose from a range of different matches and get ready for fast
action!
VERSUS
------
This is the classic 1 on 1 match. Each player selects 1 superstar and
they face off. The match continues until the rules set up by the
player have been satisfied.
TAG TEAM
--------
Tag team is a match that requires 4 superstars. Under regular rules
this match would end as soon as a Legal superstar has been pinned. 2
superstars are outside of the ring standing on the apron kitty corner
from each other. It is a 2 man team with only 1 man being able to stay
in the ring legally. The illegal superstar has to stay outside on the
apron until he is tagged. Once the legal man tags the illegal man,
their positions switch.
The illegal man can enter the ring, but only for a count of 5 seconds.
When the 5 seconds are up, the illegal man must then exit the ring and
stay back in his team's corner. This time meter will slowly fill back
up to 5 seconds. However, the illegal man is free to come into the
- Page - 13
ring at any time as long as there is some in-ring time left on his
meter. To tag a teammate, Walk over to the superstar and press L1 to
face your partner and then press the TIE-UP/PIN BUTTON.
2 ON 1
------
In this mode, 2 players face off against a single foe. The individual
superstar must fend for himself while the other two superstars are
free to pummel at will. The teamed superstars are free to attack the
single superstar as much as they like and are not restricted to a tag
format. Under normal circumstances, the match will end when a
superstar from 1 team has pinned a superstar on the other team. The
disadvantaged superstar doesn't need to pin both superstars.
3 ON 1
------
If 2 on 1 is too easy for you, try 3 on 1! The rules are the same,
but the odds are much worse!
TORNADO
-------
This mode features 4 superstars in the ring at once in a 2-on-2 match
without tag team rules. The match ends when both people on one team
have been eliminated. When 1 person is eliminated, the match becomes
a 2-on-1 handicap match. The eliminated player can continue to
wrestle outside of the ring on the floor, so beware!
LUMBERJACK
----------
In this mode, 2 players face off in the ring. There is a catch,
however. Outside the ring are 2 CPU controlled superstars eager to
pound any poor, unsuspecting superstar who finds himself outside the
ring.
Select your superstars, then choose 2 CPU lumberjack players who stay
outside the ring on opposite sides. The rules for the match are a
cross between a VS. match and a Royal Rumble. You can still pin like
a VS. match but you also have the extra throw-over-the-ropes moves
available in the Royal Rumble. The CPU superstars outside the ring do
not interact in any way with the superstars inside the ring- as long
as the in-ring superstars remain inside the ring and are careful not
to find themselves within grabbing distance of either CPU superstar
outside the ring!
- Page - 14
Once the superstars inside the ring wander outside it, they better
have their affairs in order! The CPU superstars outside the ring are
just waiting to pounce on anybody that gets thrown over the ropes or
is stupid enough to walk outside the ring. Both CPU superstars
outside the ring will focus on anyone outside the ring. If more than
1 superstar is outside the ring, the CPU superstars will each pick a
different opponent. The CPUs will beat on their opponent until they
have stunned them or the opponent gets back into the ring. Once the
opponent is stunned, the CPU superstars will throw the opponent back
into the ring. CPUs have unlimited health and are always on 100
difficulty - really fair, eh? Ouch! This style of match will keep
any crybaby opponent or annoying friends from constantly running away
from you, as any player that gets close enough to the ropes risks
being pulled out and stomped by the lumberjack superstars! Timber!
GAUNTLET
--------
In this mode, 2 players face off in the ring, but one opponent has a
big advantage: one player is able to select a 4 man team! The player
with a 1 man team must defeat all members of the other team. In a 1
player gauntlet, the user fights a CPU one-on-one until the CPU is
eliminated. Once the user has eliminated his opponent, another
superstar appears that the user must fight. This continues until the
user has successfully beaten 4 CPU opponents!
TAG TEAM GAUNTLET
-----------------
This mode is similar to a regular gauntlet mode, but with a teammate.
In this mode, the player and his/her teammate fight a teamed-opponent.
As the enemy superstars are eliminated they are replaced with fresh
teammates until all superstars on the enemy team have been eliminated.
If both the player and his/her teammate are defeated before they
defeat the enemy superstars, the match is over. Tag Team rules apply.
SURVIVOR SERIES
---------------
Only the STRONG survive! This mode is a Tag Team marathon match with
2 teams. Each team has 4 superstars and it's a fight to the finish.
However, each team has his/her tag partner and 2 other teammates
waiting in the wings. Whenever superstars are eliminated, they are
replaced with the tag partner on the apron and a teammate waiting in
the wings comes in to become the new tag partner. The match ends when
there is only 1 team left.
- Page - 15
ROYAL RUMBLE
------------
The Royal Rumble is among the wildest spectacles in wrestling, a
straight ahead free-for-all with no pins, no submissions, and no count
outs! You can't even leave the ring and fight outside! It begins
with 2 superstars grappling in the ring. Another superstar enters
every 30 seconds. This continues until 4 superstars are in the ring
at once. You eliminate opponents by throwing them over the top rope.
Once a superstar is eliminated, another fills that spot, until all 30
superstars have been in the ring! When the Rumble is over, a stat
screen will appear showing how many times you eliminated someone, how
many times you were eliminated, and how much in-ring time you had.
The winner is the last man in the ring. The Royal Rumble also lets
you select superstars for all 30 superstar slots if you want.
BATTLE ROYAL
------------
The rules for Battle Royal are exactly the same as the rules for Royal
Rumble with the following exceptions: all 4 players start in the ring
at the same time and there are only 4 superstars. The match ends when
there is only 1 superstar left in the ring.
WAR
---
There are 4 superstars in the ring at once in a free-for-all style.
The match ends when there is only 1 superstar left. Once a superstar
has been eliminated, he/she is forced outside of the ring, but can
still pull people out and beat anyone outside of the ring.
STABLE MATCH
------------
Like a War match, but each player has a team of 4 superstars. When a
player gets pinned, his/her superstar leaves and a new one comes out
until all his/her superstars are eliminated. The match ends when
there is only 1 superstar left in the ring and all of the other team's
superstars have been eliminated. Also, the last member of each team
is allowed to remain outside the ring and fight with any other
superstars outside the ring or superstars that he/she drags from
inside the ring to outside the ring.
TRIANGLE
--------
This type of match is very similar to a VS. match. Three people are
in the ring at once in a free-for-all-format. The match ends after 2
superstars have been eliminated. The winner is the superstar that
didn't get eliminated.
- Page - 16
TRIPLE THREAT
-------------
This match is similar to a Triangle match. The difference is that
once a person has been eliminated, the match is over and the victory
goes to the person who pinned or submitted the eliminated person.
This type of match prevents double teaming.
SOME SPECIALTY MATCH TYPES
--------------------------
In WWF ATTITUDE you'll come across some truly brutal match types,
which can show up at any time. Here's a taste of what to expect,
besides a lot of yelling and whimpering.
STEEL CAGE MATCH
----------------
The winner is the first superstar to climb out of the cage, usually
leaving a helplessly beaten opponent lying on the mat below. If you
think you can climb out to safety before your opponent is down, you'll
soon have that faith shaken, friend, along with every bone in your
body! The player can turn the Steel Cage on in Options before
starting a match .
WEAPONS MATCH
-------------
In a Weapons match, the rule book is just something to stand on to get
a better view of the action! Just about any object can be used to
punish your opponent. Your opponent will be thinking warmly of you,
too, so be prepared to take on anything-including the kitchen sink!
The player can turn weapons on in Options before starting a match.
King of the Ring
----------------
In this mode, the superstars face off in regular VS. matches in a
playoff-style tournament. If a player wins, he/she advances to the
next tier. The mode is complete when there is only 1 superstar left.
On the Options screen before each match the players can choose to
watch the match or simulate a winner. Simulating a match will return
the player to the tournament screen, with the winner advancing. Up to
8 human players can compete in King of the Ring tournaments. Player 1
will select all of the superstars. All players will wrestle using
Controllers 1 and 2.
- Page - 17
Pay-Per-View
------------
Want to relive some of the greatest wrestling matches ever broadcast?
Ever wanted to create the perfect wrestling ticket? "Create your Own
Pay-Per-View" mode is for you! In this mode you get to build a
Pay-Per-View from the ground up. You can pick the name of the event,
select the colors of the apron curtains-even choose between a House
arena and a Pay-Per-View arena! You can also pick the type of matches
for the Pay-Per-View, select the superstars who will participate in
the Pay-Per-View and determine which superstars face which superstars-
you're the big shot now!

Different options have different color adjustment options available.
You can usually adjust:
Hue - All the colors of the rainbow, from yellowed bruise to black-eye
blue!
Saturation - Sets the amount of color
Brightness - Make the color dark or light.
LENGTH SETTINGS
---------------
From Upper Shirt and/or Lower Pants, you will be able to adjust sleeve
and pant lengths to get that all-important 3/4 length look that's so
IT this year. To access the length meter, press the (T) BUTTON twice
(the first press highlights the color settings), then press (L) or (R)
on the DIRECTIONAL BUTTON to raise or lower your hems! Ooohhh!
ADDING TEXT TO CLOTHES
----------------------

appear on and press the (X) BUTTON. You'll come to the text input
screen. Press the (X) BUTTON on a selected line to access the text

access the options area, then use the DIRECTIONAL BUTTONS to highlight
your choice. Press the (X) BUTTON to confirm. You can set text color
by moving the slider. Press the (T) BUTTON to return to the body area
menu. You can also change the text color and which layer of clothing
the text appears on.
Attributes
----------
You assign your creation varying degrees of five attributes (from 1 to
10), with the total equal to 36. Common sense suggests you create a
superstar with balanced attributes, heavier in some areas, lighter in
others, but have fun experimenting by creating creatures with, say,
plenty of strength but no endurance, or lots of recovery but no speed.
You're sure to find their resulting performance entertaining!
The attributes are:
Strength - Affects damage you deliver.
Toughness - Makes you less vulnerable to low-damage attacks like
punches and kicks.
Speed - Impacts walks, blocks, dodges, climbing the Turnbuckle and
Cage.
Recovery - Initial recovery value is lower, plus it lowers your chance
of getting stunned.
Charisma - Increases the chances of getting the crowd on your side. A
happy crowd pumps you up so you do more damage.
Mat Skills - Improve your ability to reverse moves and do more damage
during holds.
- Page - 22
MOVES
-----
You can choose which moves you want your custom superstar to have for
particular situations, and there are plenty to choose from! To edit a
move set, move the highlight to Finisher, Trademark or one of many,
many Damage moves (arranged by the level of damage they do). Press
the (X) BUTTON to highlight the moves window at the lower left of the
screen. Press (L) or (R) DIRECTIONAL BUTTONS to toggle through the
different situations, and (U) or (D) to scroll the moves available for
each situation. Notice that button combinations for each move appear
in the window at the lower right. When you've selected your move for
one category (say, your Finisher), press the (T) BUTTON to get back to
the move set selection menu and continue until you've got an arsenal
of moves that will make your opponent cry "Uncle!"
Names - Enter your own, or choose a selectable Name - You can select
from a heaping helping of ring-tested names. When a player
uses this superstar in the game" the announcers will refer
to the superstar by the name he selected in the custom room.

In Memory of Owen Hart
----------------------
The World Wrestling Federation and Acclaim Entertainment would like to
dedicate WWF Attitude to the memory of Owen Hart. Owen loved the
wrestling business and lived to entertain both in and out of the ring.
He was a consummate performer and a very special human being. If the
legacy of a man's life is measured by the lives he touched and how
much he is loved... then a big piece of Owen Hart will live on in all
of us.
Owen James Hart
May 7, 1965 - May 23, 1999

Do You Have ATTITUDE?
---------------------
When it comes to competing against the elite athletes of the World
Wrestling Federation you better have attitude! Because these mat
maniacs don't back down from any challenge. They don't fear any
fight, and WWFATTITUDE has more ways to battle than you ever dreamed
of! If you want to challenge the best, you better bring something
extra to the ring. It takes more than knowing powerful special moves
and humiliating finishing moves. It takes more than a willingness to
take on the crushing blows of the long and wrenching Career climb, or
mad melees like Gauntlet, King of The Ring or Cage matches. You need
a certain pride, a certain arrogance, a deep feeling in your guts that
you're the best grappler in the ring. You gotta be rude, crude and in
the mood to feud: You need Attitude!
A note about Gender: Throughout this booklet, small effort has been
made to make the text "gender neutral". You know, littered with "his
or her superstar" and the like. If you're among the many females who
love wrestling, you may have the great sense and good grace to pardon
these lapses and realize that deep down, it's not simply about men or
women or even someone like Goldust- it's about the joy of great big
people beating up on other great big people! Thanks, man.

players can select the same superstar, but be aware that the second
selection will be considered an impostor. In Career mode, you select
one superstar to guide through an entire season. In all other
matches, Player 1 selects CPU superstars.
Note: In case you were wondering, CPU is geak-speak for Central

CAREER
------
This mode is for the real wrestling fan, the kind of player who's not
satisfied with simply beating a few frenzied freaks and calling it a
day. In this mode, you go through an entire WWF season, working up
from a rookie in last place to winning the European Championship belt.
After capturing that title, Career lets you continue to compete for
the title in the Intercontinental division, and once that's earned, in
the Heavyweight Championship division. By the time you've played
through the Career, you're among the elite who can beat just about
anybody! After you've beaten the CPU a few times, invite your friends
over for a whipping, because this time around the Career can be played
with up to 4 human players.
ABOUT CAREER MODE
-----------------
You begin at the bottom, an untested rookie ranked 20th. You'll start
off where all rookies start off: House shows. As you prove yourself
and begin to move up in rank, you can start to show your stuff on
Shotgun Saturday Nights. If you keep winning, pretty soon, you'll
find yourself flirtin' with the fans and TV cameras on Sunday Night
Heat and Monday Night Raw. Ultimately, your skilled superstar will be
eligible to compete in the coveted monthly Pay-Per-View matches, where
you have a chance to prove yourself before the most devoted- and
demanding-fans in the world. PPV matches include fan favorites like
In Your House, King of the Ring, SummerSlam, Survivor Series, Royal
Rumble, and of course the ultimate PPV, Wrestlemania! Once you're
ranked #1, your next PPV match will be for an awesome honor: the
European championship Belt! If you win the belt, you'll keep your #1
ranking, and then have to defend your belt to prove you're not a paper
champion. Five successful title defenses will do the trick. You will
then enter into the bottom (#15 ranking) of the Intercontinental
competition, where reaching a #1 ranking ensures you a chance at the
Intercontinental Championship belt. Say you've earned the first two
titles. Feeling pretty good, starting to believe you can beat anybody
right? Well take a breather, brother, because you've got to start
another round of competition if you want to prove you've got the
complete package it takes to win the top belt: the Heavyweight
Championship belt! Think you can take all three? Good luck! Better
hit the Training Room hard and often, amigo!
- Page - 11
FINE POINTS
-----------
House, Shotgun and Heat matches - House shows are the beginning.
Shotgun and Heat shows are televised but they don't include the same
level of fanfare that a Raw or PPV would. These matches are worth 1
ranking point. They take place in smaller, less impressive
surroundings. Hey, you gotta start somewhere, and for a beginner,
that place is the bottom!
Raw is War - This is the great televised Monday Night show you love.
There is a random chance this match will be a specialty match. This
type of match is worth 1 ranking point.
Pay-Per-View - This is a special televised event. These matches have
the most flash and include Superstar Intros. This type of match is
worth 3 ranking points, so there's plenty on the line.
In Your House - Compete against fellow superstars in a gruelling
specialty match.
King of the Ring - This will be an 8 man tournament. This particular
event doesn't end until the player has either lost 1 of the 3 matches
or won all 3.
SummerSlam - Random match types include: Weapons Match, Cage Match,
Triangle Match, Triple Threat, Stable Match or various other matches.
Survivor Series - Your regular superstar is teamed up with 3 other
superstars to create a 4 man team to fight against an opposing 4 man
team. If the player's team wins, his/her superstar moves up in rank,
even if the player's superstar was pinned during the match.
Royal Rumble - This is a 3O person, last-one-still-in-the-ring-wins
match. Players who win this match are automatically catapulted to a
rank of 1st, earning them the right to wrestle for the belt at the
next PPV, depending on the situation.
WrestleMania - This is a regular match. It is only played when a
player is attempting to win the Heavyweight belt.
- Page - 12
The Multiplayer Career
----------------------
In a multiplayer version, there is an initial War match to place
players in slots from 20th - 17th for 4 players (the winner is ranked
17th). After that, each player in rank order fights in a House match
against a randomly selected CPU or human player. Losers are deducted
1 rank and winners are advanced 1 rank. Shotguns are used to break
ties. If there are no ties, they are treated like House shows. Raw
matches are always 4 player War matches and worth 1 point to the
winner and -1 to the losers. When a player is ranked 1st he must
fight in a war match versus the other human players to prove why he is
the number 1 contender if he wins, he will have the chance to take on
the multiplayer career champion for the Heavyweight belt. If that #1
ranked player loses, the player's ranking is deducted by 3. All other
superstars advance 1 rank.
TAG TEAM CAREER
---------------
The Tag Team Career is similar to the regular career model except all
matches are tag matches, as your team battles to gain the Tag Team
Championship belt. This match can be played with the players on the
same team or on separate teams.
Exhibition Mode
---------------
Choose from a range of different matches and get ready for fast
action!
VERSUS
------
This is the classic 1 on 1 match. Each player selects 1 superstar and
they face off. The match continues until the rules set up by the
player have been satisfied.
TAG TEAM
--------
Tag team is a match that requires 4 superstars. Under regular rules
this match would end as soon as a Legal superstar has been pinned. 2
superstars are outside of the ring standing on the apron kitty corner
from each other. It is a 2 man team with only 1 man being able to stay
in the ring legally. The illegal superstar has to stay outside on the
apron until he is tagged. Once the legal man tags the illegal man,
their positions switch.
The illegal man can enter the ring, but only for a count of 5 seconds.
When the 5 seconds are up, the illegal man must then exit the ring and
stay back in his team's corner. This time meter will slowly fill back
up to 5 seconds. However, the illegal man is free to come into the
- Page - 13
ring at any time as long as there is some in-ring time left on his
meter. To tag a teammate, Walk over to the superstar and press L1 to
face your partner and then press the TIE-UP/PIN BUTTON.
2 ON 1
------
In this mode, 2 players face off against a single foe. The individual
superstar must fend for himself while the other two superstars are
free to pummel at will. The teamed superstars are free to attack the
single superstar as much as they like and are not restricted to a tag
format. Under normal circumstances, the match will end when a
superstar from 1 team has pinned a superstar on the other team. The
disadvantaged superstar doesn't need to pin both superstars.
3 ON 1
------
If 2 on 1 is too easy for you, try 3 on 1! The rules are the same,
but the odds are much worse!
TORNADO
-------
This mode features 4 superstars in the ring at once in a 2-on-2 match
without tag team rules. The match ends when both people on one team
have been eliminated. When 1 person is eliminated, the match becomes
a 2-on-1 handicap match. The eliminated player can continue to
wrestle outside of the ring on the floor, so beware!
LUMBERJACK
----------
In this mode, 2 players face off in the ring. There is a catch,
however. Outside the ring are 2 CPU controlled superstars eager to
pound any poor, unsuspecting superstar who finds himself outside the
ring.
Select your superstars, then choose 2 CPU lumberjack players who stay
outside the ring on opposite sides. The rules for the match are a
cross between a VS. match and a Royal Rumble. You can still pin like
a VS. match but you also have the extra throw-over-the-ropes moves
available in the Royal Rumble. The CPU superstars outside the ring do
not interact in any way with the superstars inside the ring- as long
as the in-ring superstars remain inside the ring and are careful not
to find themselves within grabbing distance of either CPU superstar
outside the ring!
- Page - 14
Once the superstars inside the ring wander outside it, they better
have their affairs in order! The CPU superstars outside the ring are
just waiting to pounce on anybody that gets thrown over the ropes or
is stupid enough to walk outside the ring. Both CPU superstars
outside the ring will focus on anyone outside the ring. If more than
1 superstar is outside the ring, the CPU superstars will each pick a
different opponent. The CPUs will beat on their opponent until they
have stunned them or the opponent gets back into the ring. Once the
opponent is stunned, the CPU superstars will throw the opponent back
into the ring. CPUs have unlimited health and are always on 100
difficulty - really fair, eh? Ouch! This style of match will keep
any crybaby opponent or annoying friends from constantly running away
from you, as any player that gets close enough to the ropes risks
being pulled out and stomped by the lumberjack superstars! Timber!
GAUNTLET
--------
In this mode, 2 players face off in the ring, but one opponent has a
big advantage: one player is able to select a 4 man team! The player
with a 1 man team must defeat all members of the other team. In a 1
player gauntlet, the user fights a CPU one-on-one until the CPU is
eliminated. Once the user has eliminated his opponent, another
superstar appears that the user must fight. This continues until the
user has successfully beaten 4 CPU opponents!
TAG TEAM GAUNTLET
-----------------
This mode is similar to a regular gauntlet mode, but with a teammate.
In this mode, the player and his/her teammate fight a teamed-opponent.
As the enemy superstars are eliminated they are replaced with fresh
teammates until all superstars on the enemy team have been eliminated.
If both the player and his/her teammate are defeated before they
defeat the enemy superstars, the match is over. Tag Team rules apply.
SURVIVOR SERIES
---------------
Only the STRONG survive! This mode is a Tag Team marathon match with
2 teams. Each team has 4 superstars and it's a fight to the finish.
However, each team has his/her tag partner and 2 other teammates
waiting in the wings. Whenever superstars are eliminated, they are
replaced with the tag partner on the apron and a teammate waiting in
the wings comes in to become the new tag partner. The match ends when
there is only 1 team left.
- Page - 15
ROYAL RUMBLE
------------
The Royal Rumble is among the wildest spectacles in wrestling, a
straight ahead free-for-all with no pins, no submissions, and no count
outs! You can't even leave the ring and fight outside! It begins
with 2 superstars grappling in the ring. Another superstar enters
every 30 seconds. This continues until 4 superstars are in the ring
at once. You eliminate opponents by throwing them over the top rope.
Once a superstar is eliminated, another fills that spot, until all 30
superstars have been in the ring! When the Rumble is over, a stat
screen will appear showing how many times you eliminated someone, how
many times you were eliminated, and how much in-ring time you had.
The winner is the last man in the ring. The Royal Rumble also lets
you select superstars for all 30 superstar slots if you want.
BATTLE ROYAL
------------
The rules for Battle Royal are exactly the same as the rules for Royal
Rumble with the following exceptions: all 4 players start in the ring
at the same time and there are only 4 superstars. The match ends when
there is only 1 superstar left in the ring.
WAR
---
There are 4 superstars in the ring at once in a free-for-all style.
The match ends when there is only 1 superstar left. Once a superstar
has been eliminated, he/she is forced outside of the ring, but can
still pull people out and beat anyone outside of the ring.
STABLE MATCH
------------
Like a War match, but each player has a team of 4 superstars. When a
player gets pinned, his/her superstar leaves and a new one comes out
until all his/her superstars are eliminated. The match ends when
there is only 1 superstar left in the ring and all of the other team's
superstars have been eliminated. Also, the last member of each team
is allowed to remain outside the ring and fight with any other
superstars outside the ring or superstars that he/she drags from
inside the ring to outside the ring.
TRIANGLE
--------
This type of match is very similar to a VS. match. Three people are
in the ring at once in a free-for-all-format. The match ends after 2
superstars have been eliminated. The winner is the superstar that
didn't get eliminated.
- Page - 16
TRIPLE THREAT
-------------
This match is similar to a Triangle match. The difference is that
once a person has been eliminated, the match is over and the victory
goes to the person who pinned or submitted the eliminated person.
This type of match prevents double teaming.
SOME SPECIALTY MATCH TYPES
--------------------------
In WWF ATTITUDE you'll come across some truly brutal match types,
which can show up at any time. Here's a taste of what to expect,
besides a lot of yelling and whimpering.
STEEL CAGE MATCH
----------------
The winner is the first superstar to climb out of the cage, usually
leaving a helplessly beaten opponent lying on the mat below. If you
think you can climb out to safety before your opponent is down, you'll
soon have that faith shaken, friend, along with every bone in your
body! The player can turn the Steel Cage on in Options before
starting a match .
WEAPONS MATCH
-------------
In a Weapons match, the rule book is just something to stand on to get
a better view of the action! Just about any object can be used to
punish your opponent. Your opponent will be thinking warmly of you,
too, so be prepared to take on anything-including the kitchen sink!
The player can turn weapons on in Options before starting a match.
King of the Ring
----------------
In this mode, the superstars face off in regular VS. matches in a
playoff-style tournament. If a player wins, he/she advances to the
next tier. The mode is complete when there is only 1 superstar left.
On the Options screen before each match the players can choose to
watch the match or simulate a winner. Simulating a match will return
the player to the tournament screen, with the winner advancing. Up to
8 human players can compete in King of the Ring tournaments. Player 1
will select all of the superstars. All players will wrestle using
Controllers 1 and 2.

Attributes
----------
You assign your creation varying degrees of five attributes (from 1 to
10), with the total equal to 36. Common sense suggests you create a
superstar with balanced attributes, heavier in some areas, lighter in
others, but have fun experimenting by creating creatures with, say,
plenty of strength but no endurance, or lots of recovery but no speed.
You're sure to find their resulting performance entertaining!
The attributes are:
Strength - Affects damage you deliver.
Toughness - Makes you less vulnerable to low-damage attacks like
punches and kicks.
Speed - Impacts walks, blocks, dodges, climbing the Turnbuckle and
Cage.
Recovery - Initial recovery value is lower, plus it lowers your chance
of getting stunned.
Charisma - Increases the chances of getting the crowd on your side. A
happy crowd pumps you up so you do more damage.
Mat Skills - Improve your ability to reverse moves and do more damage
during holds.
