    This is from Wiki......
    The game's engine was originally designed for use in a sequel to EA's WCW Mayhem, but EA lost the WCW license when the wrestling company was purchased by the World Wrestling Federation in 2001.

    The game features a largely unmodified AKI engine, used in other AKI wrestling games Virtual Pro-Wrestling, Virtual Pro Wrestling 64, Virtual Pro Wrestling 2, WCW vs. The World, WCW vs. nWo: World Tour, WCW/nWo Revenge, WWF WrestleMania 2000, and WWF No Mercy with some minor "button mashing" elements added and more of an arcade than a simulation. The game plays very similarly to WWF No Mercy....

    The response to the game was mainly positive, with fans citing the basic game play and presentation as superb, but many lamented the loss of key AKI features such as "gimmick matches" like the ladder match and the cage match, plus the lack of any true create-a-wrestler mode.

    So apparently, EA copied the game engine from the AKI engine for the sequel to that ? awful WCW Mayhem game. I had that game on PS1 and all I could do flawlessly in that game was hit someone with a chair. That game had a totally different engine, so it has to be that they saw how easy the AKI engine was to use and copied it. There is no news on EA purchasing the rights to the AKI engine. Why would AKI sell it when they can continue to make successful games from it?
