Wake-uP taunts—neW!
What's worse than getting jaw-jacked by a devastating
Finishing Move? Being humiliated by your opponent with a
Wake-Up Taunt before he puts you away!
When you've got a Super Finishing Move icon stored, you
can force a downed opponent to his feet with a Wake-Up
Taunt. The opponent stumbles to his feet—hit him with
your Super Finishing Move quickly, or you'll lose it!
Wake-Up Taunt
Note: There are three situations where you can perform a Wake-Up Taunt: standing next to
a downed opponent, standing on the apron near a downed opponent, or standing on the top
turnbuckle above a downed opponent.
Pinning an oPPonent
Once you're sure that your opponent has had enough, it's
time to hook the leg and go for the three-count.
When your opponent is down on the mat, approach him
and press Ω to go for the pin. To kick out, the opponent
must hold ≈ to fill the kick-out meter and release the
button once the meter reaches the target zone.
If you are the pinning Superstar and want to toy with your
opponent a little longer, you can cancel the pin at any time
by pressing .
