If you are over 6'4, you automatically know how to do a pumphandle slam. It's a law. Someone’s getting over with it, damnit!

No Mercy had some interesting choices of moves when they had different wrestlers instead of different attire. I can't recall which moves but like taka and funaki being on the same... The sd vs raw games with bad weight mechanics. Rey Mysterio and Chris Benoit as a heavyweight but a similar sized worker in the hurricane as a cruiserweight couldn't lift them up. So disappointing they didn’t acknowledge Hurricane’s Hurri-Strength and have him lift heavier guys.

In WCW Mayhem, all the playable non-wrestlers like Mean Gene, Jimmy Hart, or Doug Dillinger had luchador-style movesets. Turns out Mean Gene can do an awesome 450 Splash.

The biggest offender of them all was Bubba Ray Dudley being billed as a light heavyweight. Hell, in the present games Jinder Mahal is somehow a light heavyweight.

Steve Blackman having guillotine choke as a finisher in just bring it Ha, I played just bring it today for the first time in prolly 20 years and was very puzzled by Blackman’s finish. I wanna say in the ps1 Smackdown games he did a fisherman suplex. Also how the hell did he make it onto the roster of a game that came out Christmas 2001? Fisherman Suplex was SD1 only. As for why he was in JBI, he was still under contract. His name was a call name in CAW mode in SYM. If only i could have played as him in SYM and HCTP season modes.. 😞

I know it was as that much more of an excuse to throw the moves into No Mercy, but the moves they gave Mae Young and some others were just absurd. I forget which of them had the Jackhammer. Mae Young and Moolah were one of those things where the two characters shared a character slot and by extension a moveset. Their front finisher was a Jackhammer and their rear finisher was a Scorpion Death Drop.
But whether that was a swipe at WCW by giving the old ladies Sting and Goldberg's finishers, WWF No Mercy made the decision to give the women cool moves at the expense of accuracy, so we had things like Trish Stratus using a koppu kick and The Kat using a heel hook. Trish's moveset is especially weird because while she eventually developed into a good wrestler, No Mercy came out while she was still in her "so bad she can botch a catfight" stage and her moveset in it looks nothing like the one she eventually developed.
