Hi everyone,

I am holding a fun little tournament locally and letting the community vote for game in each category. So far we did 3d fighter, platformer fighters and traditional 2d fighter. For the next category I’m thinking about doing wrestling style games and so far I can only think of Fire Pro Wrestling, Gang Beasts and WWE 2k. I can use some more suggestions here. The game should be playable on PS5, Xbox series or switch. I also have an Nvidia shield pro, I have never played anything on it, but I’m willing to try some emulation options if needed.

Thank you in advance!

So IMO nothing has really ever topped the old Asmik Ace/AKI wrestling games from the N64 era. I played a ton of WCW/NWO Revence, and WWF No Mercy is still considered by a lot of people to be the best wrestling game ever made, and apparently still has an active modding scene.

That is very true, and N64 emulator is easy enough to setup in the Shield

You could also check out Def Jam 2 for ps2. Lots of grappling and awesome moves.

Now this is a very interesting pick, I love it

AEW: fight forever is supposed to be like a throwback to the WWE games before 2k. I got it for the switch, and I enjoy it even though the graphics are abysmal.

Thank you so much! This and the other comment gives me enough games for votes

Oh man, I already started the poll. That’s a good pick, I used to love that game as a kid.
