It's Stone Cold vs. The Construction Worker and Police Man!!
If you havent played the other Gamecube WWE games, then don't expect anything more then pretenders to the throne of the Aki N64 wrestling games. Though if you haven't played WWF No Mercy or Wrestlemania 2000, then give those a shot. If not then nothing really wrong ith Wrestlemania XIX, it's just that it doesnt try. Multiplayer wise, it's great fun, long as your friends don't mind having one hour or so ladder matches. All found still in the previous game (with frightening looking divas up close).
Though nothing new and improved, there is something downgraded and new. That being the story mode, the hideous, hideous story mode. You play as, well whatever wrestler you choose and you've been fired so now you must take "Revenge!" Upon Vince McMahon and his WWE franchise. What better way to do that then fighting Village People lookalikes (all except for the Indian).
I say Village People because they're more buff then the normal construction workers and such that you see, not to mention i can never imagine a security guard/ police man pile driving Brock Lesnar unless afterwards theyre going to sing YMCA.
The whole mode is TERRIBLE and it's the only means of buying things in the game. Basically i watch enough WWE to know Goldberg wouldn't give two steel chairs about being fired when the History Channel can hire him. Besides that though, the wrestlers are also murderers since i can't imagine any member of The Village People surviving a spear a bottomless pit. Fear not though, since the WWE has a cloning machine since many will come back to make this mode even more of a living hell.
Get it only if you're desperate for a wrestling game and don't have an N64.
