    You spent most of the match running round after Ted Debiase, whereas in a real match he'd have left the ring with IRS for a count out defeat to keep the belts.

Tecmo World Wrestling was great and WCW was decent. This came out at a great time, as I was just looking at picking up Steel Cage and King of the Ring the other day, as I never played them, but I now see that isn't a great idea. Great video.

    Wrestlemania Challenge was awesome because in tag matches you could order your CPU controlled tag partner to attack. I think the select button did it but I'm not sure how.

    Some of the wrestlers do have their signature moves amongst the moves they can do. Beefcake can do the sleeper hold, Rude has his Rude Awakening, Duggan can do his three-point stance into a tackle, Savage can do a flying elbow, Warrior has a press slam. Some of the wrestlers though don’t have an established finisher in their arsenal in the game. Hogan doesn’t have a leg drop, yet some other wrestlers do. Hogan does an elbow drop for his ground move instead, for some reason.

    As far as who won your King of the Ring tournament: Since your match ended in a double countout, the final match would be Bret Hart vs Shawn Michaels. Shawn would apply the Sharpshooter and the match would immediately end. Hulk Hogan would come down to the ring to make sure that Bret was okay. Shawn issues a challenge to Hogan for his new King of the Ring crown, which Hogan accepts. Hogan wins and becomes King of the Ring despite being eliminated in the first round.

    I still have my original copy of Wrestlemania Challenge and all I can remember is that it was like running around in circles at times trying to pull a move off from behind the opponent when it was against the CPU as they were always moving. It seemed almost pointless having moves from behind since you couldn't stun them. Also the CPU was vicious and in the tournament mode after the first fight or two once they got a hold of you it was pretty much game over as they were relentless.
