WWF SmackDown! 2: Know Your Role, known in Japan as Exciting Pro Wrestle 2 (エキサイティングプロレス2, Ekisaitingu Puro Resu 2), is a professional wrestling video game developed by Yuke's released in November 2000 on the PlayStation by THQ. It is the sequel to WWF SmackDown!, and the second game in the SmackDown series, itself based on the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) professional wrestling promotion.

Know Your Role achieved commercial success, becoming the best-selling combat sports game on a single format (PlayStation) with 3.2 million units sold. The game was succeeded by WWF SmackDown! Just Bring It in November 2001.

The game received "universal acclaim" according to video game review aggregator Metacritic. At a score of 90 out of 100, Metacritic has never awarded a higher score to any other WWE video game. Daniel Erickson of NextGen commended tons of options and multiplayer matches but was critical to the game's Story mode. In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 30 out of 40.

The game received a "Platinum" sales award from the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA), indicating sales of at least 300,000 units in the UK.

The game was nominated for the "Best Sports Game (Alternative)" award at GameSpot's Best and Worst of 2000 Awards, which went to Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. It was also a runner-up for the "Best Extreme Sports Game" and "Best Multiplayer Game" awards at the Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine 2000 Editors' Awards, both of which went to SSX and TimeSplitters. The game won the award for Action in Readers' Choice at IGN's Best of 2000 Awards.
