My personal favorite things about this game is the freedom. However in the “brawl” option, the match is over when a player loses his life bar, no pinfall needed. Once their life bar is empty, you can cover them for a pinfall. It depletes the more you whip on your opponents. You consistently tap buttons in hopes of letting your meter fill up to perform moves like suplexes, body slams, finishing moves, hip tosses, whatever else.Įach wrestler has a life bar or “stamina” meter. As you lock up, you’ll notice a meter above the wrestlers. You can punch, kick, shoulder tackle opponents. In-ring gameplay is consistent with its predecessors.

Gameplay stays consistent in the series with minor tweaks added. WWF RAW is the third in a handful of WWF games developed by Sculptured Software and published by LJN and later Acclaim. When I wasn’t able to wrestle my brother due to parental interference or I got tired of beating my action figure collection, WWF RAW gave me a whole new outlet for my wrestling fandom. Many hours were spent playing it on my own, as well as having 5-star bouts with my cousins and little brother. The gameplay is accessible, it captures the early 90’s WWF feel, and they’re a variety of match options for single and multiplayer.

Putting my nostalgia aside, I feel that WWF RAW is a good wrestling game. While bigger and better wrestling games came into my life the older I got, I never forgot WWF RAW.
