WCW: World Championship Wrestling

Overview

Challenge the world's greatest wrestlers in the grappling action game that puts you in the toughest competition of all! Choose which wrestler you want to be or make up your own tag team from top NWA stars including: "Nature Boy" Ric Flair, Sting, "Total Package" Lex Luger, Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat, Road Warriors "Hawk" and "Animal," and "Dogface Gremlin" Rick Steiner. Become your favorite wrestler as you battle it out in the ring!

• Twelve top stars of the NWA

• Pair up your own tag team with any two wrestlers

• 1 or 2 players

• Wrestlers are thrown over the ropes and continue fighting out of the ring

• On-screen statistics of each wrestler

• Exciting animated graphics and realistic sound effects

The game was originally released in Japan under the name Super Star Pro Wrestling. The NA/Europe version is a reskinned version using WCW wrestlers, which is why the Western version doesn't have the proper finishers for the wrestlers, as it was just a simple sprite hack.
