I.   Introduction

     After reading may other game FAQs, I too will issue the same warnings.  Do
     not steal this FAQ, please give me credit if you wish to use it.  You may 
     use it freely, but DO NOT use this in any sort of game publication.  (That
     means you EGM!)  I do hope my move list will help you enhance your enjoyment
     of WCW Mayhem.

     If you are looking for general information about WCW Mayhem, you ought to
     check out cookinwiththerock's FAQ.  You can find it at: 
     http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/game/24583.html
     His is the General FAQ, which is excellent.

     I have the PlayStation Version, but these moves should work on the N64.

III. Who is Goldberg?

     Goldberg is a force to be reckoned with in World Championship Wrestling.  He's
     6-4, 285 pounds, and a monster in the ring.  A former Atlanta Falcon, he's
     destroyed the competition with his combination of the spear and jackhammer.
     He does all his talking in the ring, and he strikes fear into the hearts of 
     his opponents.

     With only one loss in his illustrious career, we are left with one question,
     WHO'S NEXT!!!!

VI. Miscellany

    I'm too lazy to work on ASCII art, so if anyone knows of a program or who 
    has spare time to do it, lemme know...

    When fighting on the hard level, it's harder to hit the grapple moves early 
    in the match.  Stun them first, then hit them hard.

    I tend to wonder if the producers watch WCW because you can hit a spear and
    jackhammer and opponent may still kick out.

    When fighting on the hard difficuly level, submissions are much quicker to 
    end the match than to try to wear down the opponent.  This is helpful in the 
    Quest for the Best mode.

    WHO'S NEXT?  I'll put up move lists for Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Billy Kidman, 
    Ric Flair, Buff Bagwell, Chris Benoit and Scott Steiner soon.  I doubt I'll 
    make any others unless people request them.  I hope to have the remaining 
    characters up soon.

    I'm working on these as fast as I can, but I'm in school trying to finish my
    senior year in college, so be patient.  So if there is a time where there are 
    no updates, you'll know why.  Feel free to e-mail me though...

    Thanks for all the e-mails BTW.  I try to make this FAQ as easy to understand,
    especially for those playing that don't really watch wrestling.  Thank Outsider
    for proofing these FAQs and correcting the move names.
