ARENAS
Every match takes place in an arena based on a W event. Pay attention to the match objective displayed before the game starts, as some arenas have unique conditions for victory.
There are 13 arenas in all. Only the first six are available at the start of the game; unlock the other seven by playing through the Season mode.
Hardcore Arena
The wide-open Hardcore Arena challenges you to pick up and hold the Hardcore Belt for a certain amount of time to win the match. To get the Hardcore Belt away from its current owner, you need to destroy them.
Hell in a Cell™
Hell in a Cell™ is W's most ruthless match, and the Crush Hour™ equivalent lives up to the reputation. Be the first Superstar to destroy a certain number of opponents to win.
Ironman
Prove you're the toughest by racking up more kills than any other Superstar within the time limit in an Ironman match.
Lumberjack
You need to collect a certain number of shining yellow stars to win a Lumberjack match. A yellow arrow appears at the top of the screen when a star appears. Beat your opponents to the stars and keep your opponents' score down. You lose points if you're destroyed, and so do your opponents!
Raw
It's an all-out war in the arena based on W's flagship show. Be the first Superstar to defeat the required number of opponents in this wide-open arena to win.
SmackDown!™
Prepare to have the smack laid down on you when you enter this frantic arena. Rack up the required number of opponent kills to win the match.
Running the Gauntlet
Collect the stars inside the yellow beacons of light to win this grueling rooftop battle. A yellow arrow appears at the top of the screen when a star appears. Jump from building to building in a mad dash for stars! You lose points if you're destroyed or fall off the roof!
Royal Rumble
This multi-tiered elimination match is one of the most difficult matches in the game. Collect a crown and hold on to it! After 30 seconds, whoever is not holding a crown is eliminated. Eliminate 11 of your opponents to win this Royal Rumble®!
Bottom Line™
An oil rig out at sea is perhaps the most challenging place for the Superstars. Tight quarters and no railings make this battle for points a tough one! Be careful of the ledges, because falling off costs you a point!
Battle Royal™
The W™ has taken over an abandoned subway tunnel for this deadly elimination match. Defeat or avoid enough of your opponents to be the last one standing. Staying close to the subway trains may both help and hinder your progress. Don't be caught in their path or you may be the one eliminated!
King of the Ring
Like a gladiator of Rome, in King of the Ring, you take on your opponents in the Coliseum to be the last man standing to win this match! There's no running away in this single-elimination match against 11 of your toughest foes, it's kill or be killed.
Cage Match
Break out of the cage by defeating your opponents, then grab the contract and deliver it to the goal point! Avoid the fighter jet afterburners, cannon fire from the battleships, and your opponents—all of which can strip the contract from you. Three points win the match!
Survivor Series®
Eliminate your opponents in this 2-on-2 tag team battle! The first team to 3 points wins the match! Drive through the tag beacons to get your partner into the battle. Tagged out vehicles recover damage—use this to your advantage!

Turbo
Turbo pick-ups add two additional turbos to your Turbo Meter.
Invulnerability
Just like the name implies, the Invulnerability pick-up makes you immune to damage for a short period of time.
Double Damage
This boost to your combat computer makes your shots cause twice as much damage. The upgrade doesn't last long, so keep your guns blazing and make it count!
Ramming Power
A force shield that doubles the impact of ramming damage. Effective at normal speeds, deadly when combined with a Turbo!
