Tag-Team) or opponent (in 3-Way or Royal Rumble) is controlled by the CPU. Once
the match begins, get in a weak or strong grapple, then press L to get in a rear
grapple. From here press C-Up to get your opponent on your shoulders. No matter
what the CPU is doing (except if stunned, down, or in a grapple), he will stop
it, run to the nearest turnbuckle, jump on it, and lay the Smackdown on the
wrestler on your shoulder.
Easy wins:
Note: This trick works best with wrestlers that jump to the top rope rather than
climb. As soon as the match begins, climb the turnbuckle farthest from your
opponent, hold the Analog-stick to taunt the crowd twice, then press R to fall
to your feet. While you do this, the CPU will assume that you are simply going
to do your high risk maneuver, so they back off. Keep doing this (occasionally
switching turnbuckles) until you get a special. Then, repeat as much as needed.

with Stone Cold and have HBK at kicking distance. Then, press B on controller
two. Right before HBK kicks, press R with Stone Cold. You should block the kick,
spin HBK around, and then do the Stunner. This is an impressive looking move and

trick with anybody. Get to punching distance; Stone Cold will block the punch
and then do his finisher.
