Legends of Wrestling

By W-E Staff on July 24, 2009

Remember back in the day when you weren’t sure if wrestling was real or staged? Where the secrets were hidden and the magic was still there? When in Wrestlemania 2, Hulk Hogan wrestled King Kong Bundy in a steel cage and the World Wrestling Federation Heavyweight title was on the line? Yeah, that was the golden age of wrestling. Now, thanks to Acclaim, you can go back to that time, in Legends of Wrestling.

If you’re like me, well, then you love wrestling! You also have to try every wrestling videogame out there. And I’m here to tell you about Legends of Wrestling because Acclaim gave us the playable online version this week to give you, the fans, a sneak peek look at the game.
