require you to use two players. If not, just use Stacy's
kicks to weaken Trish, then steal the Stratusfaction.

____________

3.2)

Wrestlemania 21 Rematch

Match: Single without manager

Superstars: Kurt vs Shawn

Arena: Wrestlemania 21

Beat Shawn in the match. This is hard, but is is
easy enough once he is weakened down. Use your submission
moves, followed by your suplexes. If needed, do an aerial
move, but work on the legs and back.

Sweet Chin Music and Forearm when needed.

_______________

3.5)

ECW Rematch

Match: Single without manager

Superstars: Benoit vs Guerrero

Arena: ECW One Night Stand

Defeat Guerrero

Easy enough given how durable Benoit is. Lock the
crossface in as soon as you get it. He will counter a lot
though so use lots of reversals, then get some quick
grapples in.

_____________________

3.6)Rest in Peace

Match: Buried Alive

Superstars: Undertaker vs Kane

Beat Kane

This is hard. Use the weapons as much as you can to weaken

that you use Power Grapple, then the Chokeslam to weaken
Kane down.

__________________________________

3.7)

Future Wrestlemania Match

Match: Single without manager

Arena: Wrestlemania 21

Superstars: Cena vs Batista

Beat Batista at the event

Batista is a lot stronger than Cena. I recommend that you

Match: 6 Man Battle Royal


Superstars: RVD vs Eddie, Benoit, Tajiri, Mysterio and
Chris Jericho

Arena: ECW One Night stand

Defeat all these guys in the Royal

This is going to be your toughest challenge yet.
I recommend you stay in the corner for a lot of the match,
and capitalise where possible. RVD has a lot of powerful
kicks so use those as well.

____________________

3.9)

Evolution Rematch

Match: Fatal Four Way Hell in The Cell

Superstars: Triple H vs Flair vs Orton vs Batista

This is quite hard but possible. HHH is perhaps the best
guy in the match. Use the spinebuster on everyone to
weaken them down, then capitalise with a pedigree. And, as
with any other match with everyone against everyone, wait
until the others do a finisher, then try to steal the win.


_________________

3.10)

Cruiserweight Challenge

Match: 1 on 2 Handicap match

Superstars: Big Show vs Rey and London

This is easy. These guys, while fighting together, are
easy to get off. Use the strong strikes, then power
grapples to weaken the guys down, then Showstopper them.

________________

3.11)

Vengeance rematch

Arena: Vengeance

Match: Single, No manager vs Guy with manager

Superstars: Kane vs Edge with lita

he should be easy pickings. Just use the chokeslam when
ready to pin.

______________________

3.12)

Bar Brawl Challenge

Match: Bar Room Brawl

Superstars: Carlito vs Cena

Beat Cena

This is hard as Cena is a lot better than Carlito. Since
there are weapons scattered around backstage, use them a
lot to get the win. Use whatever you can. It will be hard
but it can be done

________________

3.13)

Generations

Match: Tag match

Superstars: Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair vs John Cena, Randy Orton

Beat the young guys. Hard as the old guys are not as
strong as the young guys. But use Flair and his

win the match in time.

Survivor Series Rematch

Match: 6 man Elimination Chamber

Superstars: HBK vs HHH, Booker T, Kane, RVD and Jericho

Beat these guys

I have now found out that it does not matter where you start off in the match
but the strategy is the same. Pick a high number, when you come out, if
others are still around, hide while the others
fight, and keep on taunting to get a special. Then, come in
and do the Sweet chin Music

Match: Single

Superstars: 1980's Hogan vs Andre
