Training Room Hidden Area
When you are doing a hardcore match, go to the training room. Find a wall that has a crack in it. Irish whip your oppenent into this wall 2 or 3 times and the wall should break, revealing a secret room.

Easy Season Win
In season mode, set up a table in the corner of the ring and move near it until the computer opponent puts you through it. They will be disqualified, and you will win the match, getting more respect and superstar points.

Easy Hell in the Cell Win
Break open one of the 2 sections in the top of the cell first. Then go up to the top and the computer opponent will follow you. Move yourself so that the opponent will step right into the open spot, falling to the ground suffering major damage. (The key is to stay on the side of the hole that is opposite of the computer opponent.)

Build Up Your Custom Wrestler Easily
You don't have to use your custom wrestler (from Create a Wrestler) in the Season mode to strengthen his stats. You can just use a regular WWE wrestler in the season to accumulate attribute points, and then you can use those points later on to edit your custom wrestler. This will save you the trouble of using a weak custom wrestler in the season mode.

Steal Opponent's Finishing Move
When you want to steal your opponent's finishing move, hold L2 and press L1.

Throw People Around on the Motorcycle
Get on the motorcycle, ride right beside somebody and press CIRCLE. You will throw your opponent onto the floor or possibly the cars.

View Extra Video
To view an extra video, win the game in season mode and then watch through all of the credits. At the end of the credits, an extra video will come on.

Weapons Under the Ring
There are 4 different weapons you can use that are under the ring:
Left Side - Chair
Right Side - Chair
Top Side - Table
Bottom Side - Sledgehammer
You must get in the middle of the banner and push SQUARE to get the weapon.

Easier Submissions
To make your opponent submit quicker, damage the body part that the submission move will affect. For instance, damage the legs before doing an Angle Lock, or damage the back before doing a Walls of Jerico.

TV in Training Room
If you get challenged by a superstar in the training room, simply throw him into the TV stand, which will knock the TV set off. You can then grab the TV set and pummel your opponent with it.

Using the Sledgehammer
Choking your oppoent with the sledgehammer does the most damage of all the weapon attacks, and it is the only weapon attack that can not be reversed.

Easier Submissions
Whenever you apply a hold that brings up the submission meter, rapidly press all 4 symbol buttons instead of just one. This trick will help you get a submission much more quickly.

Start the season with the Season Stats and use those Hundreds of Hundreds of earned Exp Points to finish off making perfect 10's in all catagories.

Treadmill Trick
In the locker room, walk onto the treadmill and press SQUARE to start using it. Now press X really fast, and you will get a special quickly.

Title Match Trick
Whenever you have a title and you don't want to defend it, exit out of the game. You will lose the title. The next week, go to the general manager and request a shot for the title you've just lost. Now you can earn it back easily. This will make sure that you have a title match every week, and this will give you additional money to help you unlock those expensive items.

Saving CAWs to Different Memory Cards
If you and a friend each create your own wrestlers and then try to save them on each other's Memory Cards, you will find that it overwrites all season mode data as well. Here's how you can save your own wrestlers without ruining your season mode data. Go into the OPTIONS MENU and load system data from one card. Copy the CAW to the console. Now, exit the OPTIONS MENU WITHOUT saving. Go into Create Mode and save there. This way, you will save the updated versions of your CAWs without overwriting your season data.
