"A fun game all together, but could've been a lot better"
Graphics: 8: The wrestlers were big and detailed pretty good and look a lot like there real life counterparts. Besides the wrestlers, there's also the ref, the ring, and the crowd which are also done nicely.
Sound: 7: There's all the in ring sound effects from body slams and punhes to submissions which are all done nicely. Some wrestler's entrance music would've been nice, but the game didn't have any.
Gameplay: 7: There was only one mode, which was Tag Championship where you pick a pair of wrestlers and go against other duo of the WWF and then face the MegaBucks(Andre the Giant and Ted Dibiase) for the WWF Tag Titles in the Main Event. Some of the wrestlers you can pick from were Hulk Hogan, Big Boss Man, Ultimate Warrior, Honky Tonk Man, Jim Duggan, and Randy Savage. Each wrestler can do each of their finishers. Sometimes the computer seems a little too tough at times.
Replay Value: 6: Once you won the tage belts by yourself there was no reason to win again unless you wanted to beat the game with a different pair of wrestlers. There was a 2-payer mode so you can bring a friend to the arcade with you and bash it out against each other or form a team and go for the tag titles together.
Overall: 7: This arcade game is a fun package all together, but could've been a lot better if they added a couple more modes for replay value(it's arcade sequel, WWF Wrestlefest added a Royal Rumble mode which increased it's replay value a lot). The 1 player mode is a lot of fun, but after you beat it you won't feel like playing it again.
