Mostly I had to wait until one opponent was occupied somehow, usually out of the ring, then try to get the pin on the other one in the ring.
Finally figured out it's up+C to get through the ropes. : P (Well almost, I think I was thinking you had to point with the d-pad at the same time, but maybe you don't.)
Can't figure out which tag I like better! Maybe I'm starting to lean toward Revenge because it's a little brighter and weirder and wackier?? There are ninjas and sumos and luchas and baby bobbleheads and stuff!
The music in some of WCW's venues isn't quite as bad as in others; maybe overall it isn't THAT much worse than No Mercy's music. ; )
I hadn't liked that Hold A is drag downed opponent in Revenge...but I can never remember which button it moved to in No Mercy. ; D (It's up + C. The C buttons are so darned unintuitive! : P)
I probably won't keep trying to wrestle so much with my weird genero lady/McMahon replacement wrestlers (Spoz, Czok, Feb, Pep, etc...) in No Mercy. : P At least they weren't so bad after the first! Czok got a pin in like 2:40. = o
Revenge I think defaulted to 10 seconds "Tag Help Time" (as No Mercy calls it) for your partner to come in when you need an assist, while No Mercy seems to have defaulted to just 5 seconds; I liked how AI help had gone in my previous Revenge tag match better than my first No Mercy match, so I raised No Mercy's THT to 10 seconds, and that did seem to help make things mixier. ^) ^
Random select in No Mercy kept picking Mick Foley jobs, and the top-right character ("Spoz," one of my McMahon replacements) in "Hidden 1." A LOT. And didn't pick any of my CAWs. Hm.
Gotta remember Irish Whip is down C. So is (with d-pad) climb turnbuckle.
In NM I kept looking for what apparently are "Flying Attacks (opponent out of ring)": pad + A (grapple button) from ropes, and down C + A running to ropes/turnbuckle; same for Revenge (I could swear I tried that but maybe I was hitting B instead of A?
According to GameFAQs NM message board posts, Up + C throws opponents out of the ring. It isn't mentioned in either manual. And I could swear I tried it and it didn't do anything. One mentions "press C-Up while pushing towards the ropes" and I'm not sure what that means. D pad?
^ I think Up + C is not an actual throw-out-of-ring command. I was probably confusing it with Fire Pro Wrestling World, which DOES have a throw-out-of-ring command. According to this No Mercy video on eliminating opponents, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_w1o5GT5Xg , the way to get them out is basically to hit them out, not throw them out. Well I guess that solves that confusion.
I was really bad as The Rock. :PP
Apparently ( https://forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/197510/favorite-fictional-wrestler-wcw-revenge ), the wrestlers in "EWF" and "DAW" in Revenge are fictional: AKI MAN, Shogun, Executioner, Dr. Frank, Jekel, Maya Inca Boy (EWF), Hawk Hana, Kim Chee, Dake Ken, Brickowski, Ming Chee, Han Zo Mon (DAW). Which is to say, they're based on Japanese wrestlers, under fictional names & costumes! https://prowrestling.fandom.com/wiki/WCW/nWo_Revenge#EWF
Revenge's Riggs & Sick Boy look almost identical but are actually two different people in RL. : P
