Think im one of the few that actually liked this game. The roster was brilliant, I admit I liked the gameplay, They features territories which I loved, and the soundtrack was great.
+bluebreckskier the one downside of this game I thought was the way to unlock other wrestlers. I had a hard time with the gambling thing to unlock Owen Hart. Liked how you could defend titles in the game it's too bad they didn't have the graphics to have them walk out with the belt. Kinda wish I still had the game. If WWE made a game like this with only legends(not LOWM, letdown with that game) I'd be in heaven. I think they have a lot of these guys under a legends deal so I don't think it would be impossible.
This is easily in my top 5 wrestling games of all time. While I did like the roster from the third game more (more wrestlers that I grew up watching like Macho Man and Jake the Snake) this was over all a better game, and how I discovered some of my favorite legendary wrestlers. If I were to create my perfect wrestling game, a lot of the features would be from this one.
Rob Van Dam was in the first game because it was originally meant to be an ECW game. When ECW went under they changed the game but kept RVD's player model.
Hey also was only in the first one and not the second because he signed a WWF contract and was an active wrestler. They tried to have everyone in this game not an active wrestler at the time.
I hope they remaster this game and add few more fallen legend's and give a decent gameplay so that fans understand how misunderstood this game is! I know akklaim is dead since years still I wish there was a hope to do something!
Man I still even have Legends Of Wrestling 2 On Nintendo GameCube and Pretty much This game is still a lot of fun and I know Legends Of Wrestling 2 Is not a WWE video game and me and my cousin we used to play this game a lot and it is pretty fun after all I mean this game has all of the WWE Legends and WCW Legends and ECW Legends as well but my GameCube is really messed up for the minute so I can't even play this game for the minute
Big Daddy Kendo and Heystacks are British Wrestling Royalty were huge names in the UK Heystacks went over to the states for a while he was in the WCW in 96 under the ring name Loch Ness hell he was even a member of The Dungeon of Doom but his run in WCW was cut really short due being diagnosed with Cancer so he returned to the UK
+Ncalex1 You Know What's Also BS Undertaker Not Being In This Game I Wanted To See Undertaker In This Game Series But Nope They're Douchebags And Douches
GOD, This game Was Absolute SHIT! The best thing about this game is the roster, the Music & the Use of weapons & blood! It's so weird & yet awesome seeing all these classic wrestlers be involved in more violent & gruesome matches!
Think im one of the few that actually liked this game. The roster was brilliant, I admit I liked the gameplay, They features territories which I loved, and the soundtrack was great.
I loved it too! One of my first wrestling games even though most wrestlers were before my time (not my dad's though).

+Nabil Shihabi Undertaker Wasn't Even In This Fucking Game Which Is Sad And Pathetic
They couldn't use any character's that we're under contract with WWE. They would've been sued

David Penzer was one of the best announcers ever in pro wrestling
agreed
And Gary Capetta were awesome announcers.
I prefer Howard Finkel
Most emotive
I love George the animal steele's theme
It's the reason I'm watching this video
It was AWESOME that they included British legends like Big Daddy, Mick McManus and Kendo Nagasaki.
I wish Adrian Street was in the game.
Rob Van Dam was in the first game because it was originally meant to be an ECW game. When ECW went under they changed the game but kept RVD's player model.
ہمبھیہیںجنسےپ
I Wonder If Rob Van Dam Knew Anything About This
so that explains why Eddie Gilbert had the camera up close to his face in the entrance.
Hey also was only in the first one and not the second because he signed a WWF contract and was an active wrestler. They tried to have everyone in this game not an active wrestler at the time.
Because he wasn't under a WWE contract in the first game.
What an amazing roster! So many greats from so many different promotions.
And generatotions.👏👏👏
Awesome! They used Hogan's WCW theme!
Hulk Hogans WCW Theme AWESOME!!!
So much nostalgia..
Imagine the no selling and backstage politicing of a hulk vs big daddy match
RIP Shirley Crabtree and any other legends. Good times with this game.
They were all true great wrestlers.
Roddy piper is dead also
and so is Andy Kaufman :(
Ha I loved the trash talking thing on the selection screen on thunder :D
There is distinctively less HUUUUUUUU-huuuuuuuuuuuu in Penzer's voice.
sounds like WWE stole acclaims fake Bret Hart music for The Hart Dynasty theme music.
3:28 That's What Bret Hart Actually Does In His Game Entrances
Rest In Peace To All The Legends most are Hall of farmers
@Tristan Wassman I Love How In Showdown: Legends Of Wrestling They Used Sting's Actual Crow Theme From WCW Since It Was Recognizable
A god tier soundtrack
Good god, I forgot about Big Daddy's appearance in this game 😂😂
He's only in PAL version i think.
That terry funk music though
right lol
I remember having this game for ps2 and I used to play it all the time and I'm collecting the wwe jakks classic superstars action figures
scott steiner theme in this game is awesome! GO BLUE!
Great memories
I want see a legend of Wrestling for the new video games console
This game brings back memories!!!!
HOT STUFF
HOT STUFF YEAH YEAH
rip dr. death
Man I can't believe how long it's been scince I played this, I need to find a refurbished Original Xbox
NeckbeardOutlaw how much will you be willing to buy it for....
Go on ebay they have a lot
Or you can just download Dolphin emulator and find the Gamecube version to download. I play this game on my nvidia shield all the time. Pretty fun.
It's based on the old Steiner Brothers theme, which I think was the Detroit University fight song.
no. it was Michigan's
Lol Detroit University
University of Michigan
6:51 giving Giant Haystacks thr funeral march as his theme song, when he had been dead for a few years at that point...
Kinda ironic that Mr Wonderful's theme here was actually Gorgeous George's theme in WCW XD
Fun Fact
Also The theme of The Maestro from WCW.
I remember this game it consists number of the greatest legends
2:47 me on my way to your moms house
I wish I could find the song Snuka used in this game on youtube.
I was born in 1998 and have watched probably every ECW, wcw, awa, wccw, tna , WWF/e match. but I have never heard off big daddy whatever his name is
jay WARE British wrestling
iv either missed him accidently
he is an unlockable character I ONLY DO DEFAULTS WITH MY ALL WRESTLER ENTRANCE VIDS
or he is not in the game
Sid Vicious' theme sounds like something from a 90s Nickelodeon cartoon
Brian Pillman in this looks more like Harley Race than Harley Race does... LOL
lmao Big Papa Pump had some funny theme music... man how did Acclaim do that? All they had to do was add police sirens, but they choose that instead!?
why do you hate the victors?
Eddie Guerrero's Theme Was Also In All Star Baseball 2005 Also By Acclaim
Well Gaming Palooza Empire fyi Scott Steiner wasn't even part of the legendary Steiner clan. Scott was fresh on his singles run without Rick Steiner
I had so much trouble with this game's controls.. But it was sure memorable
This is the 2nd and last time Hogan used his WCW American made theme song since WCW backstage assault
Bob Backlund looks like Ken from Toy Story 2. Dang.
this game is amazing nice one acclaim
11:22
Mil Mascaras, I think he's related to Alberto Del Rio
I think he is in real life. Alberto del Rio is mil mascaras nephew
Hulk Hogan's theme is the theme of WCW before he join amd created nWo with Kevin Nash and Scott Hall
the steiners themes are AWESOME!
Always loved Bob Orton's Theme in this Game, wish I could find it...
TheOne&Only Deanzinski Now If Undertaker Was In This Taker Would Have An Remixed Version Of Grim Reaper (1994)
5:07 la mejor entrada de todas
That's actually David Penzer
what is the name of theme of mil mascaras???
I miss that game
Ah, Eddie Gilberts theme. I prefer it to the real song I think
i always wnted to get more coins specially the red and blue ones lol
no it's the announcer from tna
5:07 la mejor entrada de todas 😂
18:34 la segunda mejor entrada 😎
4:18 love the music 😂
I hope they remaster this game and add few more fallen legend's and give a decent gameplay so that fans understand how misunderstood this game is!
I know akklaim is dead since years still I wish there was a hope to do something!
LMAO at scott stiener 4:17
Lmfao that music!
***** what the hell is wrong with steiners face lol

Better suits early 90s Steiner
I sucked at playing this game. However it was a cool game. I was great at Showdown: Legends of Wrestling.
7:27 An exclusive!!!! it arriiiiiiived
I ain’t gonna lie I loved Hulks theme on here than the actual one he is known for
DiBiase simply ROCKED
Any idea why Hawks is wearing yellow shoulder pads? I've seen L.O.D. in red, blue and gold shoulder pads, but never yellow.
Did you say Dave Penzer.
In the bob backland titan tron it looks like he do the chicken wing move on brodus clay. XD
Anime Hero it’s jerry lawler
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO AGREES WITH ME!
whats the name of cowboy bob ortons theme in this game
We'll do to copyrights with theme songs they couldn't use their exact theme songs.
+AcePlays If Undertaker Was In This I Bet You Taker Would Get A Generic Theme That Sounds Eerie Like Grim Reaper (1994-95)
@@jonathanwashington3065 that is exactly what the Undertaker would have in this game if he had his old theme Grim Reaper
What's the music that the steiner brothers use called?
The victors. Michigan's fight song
"Hail to the Victors" the University of Michigan fight song. The Steiners are graduates of U of M. So it only makes sense.
no he was on the first one
i'm sure owen hart was in the game!
Man I still even have Legends Of Wrestling 2 On Nintendo GameCube and Pretty much This game is still a lot of fun and I know Legends Of Wrestling 2 Is not a WWE video game and me and my cousin we used to play this game a lot and it is pretty fun after all I mean this game has all of the WWE Legends and WCW Legends and ECW Legends as well but my GameCube is really messed up for the minute so I can't even play this game for the minute
4:44
RIP Terry Funk
he was in the first but not the second
no he was only in the 1st legends of wrestling game
Where is bruno sammartino?
Does anyone know whwre to get these entrance themes seperately?
No. He was with WWE at that time.
does the PlayStation version you have Giant Haystacks and all the other legends that I'm not familiar with
+Agustin Garcia Only in the European release.
What ?!!
Big Daddy Kendo and Heystacks are British Wrestling Royalty were huge names in the UK Heystacks went over to the states for a while he was in the WCW in 96 under the ring name Loch Ness hell he was even a member of The Dungeon of Doom but his run in WCW was cut really short due being diagnosed with Cancer so he returned to the UK
7:00
Anyone knows this theme?
Why are you thinking of listening to it in private on repeat? 😂😂😂
@AB-sg5wn lmao you reminded me when I was searching for the most shitty places for themes for a game I tried to do, good times
What is that name of that Couboy Bob orton theme in this game?
Good point.
rvd is in part 3
Bob Backlund & Rick Steiner can't move like human beings in this game.
WHERE IS DON MORRACO
Giant haystacks coming out to undertakers theme?
I noticed that too
I'm Pretty Sure If Undertaker Were In This Game Taker Would've Had His Original 1991 Theme Not The Shitty One Seen Here
Graphics on this are kickass compared to SVR on wii.if you don't know what SVR on wii looks like look it up and you'll see what I mean.
its all the default entrances.
hes an old british wrestlin legend...its a british thang lol
@9ElevenGamer Copy rights owned by wwe
What was song Scott and rick Steiner used
the victors, Michigan's fight song
Big Daddy EASY EASY EASY
So bad it's good. LoW wasn't all that bad though. Career mode was a bitch when the AI countered everything you did and you had to be just as good.
Are some of these legends created guy? Cause they aren't in my game and I unlocked everything
There's 4 Europe exclusives. Big Daddy, Nagasaki, Haystacks and McManus
+Ncalex1 You Know What's Also BS Undertaker Not Being In This Game I Wanted To See Undertaker In This Game Series But Nope They're Douchebags And Douches
No, but he is in the first one.
15:00 fackin bullsheet
Late, I know, but can we get a "finishers" vid?
Where is undertaker!?
He wasn't on the game.😦
He's not a legend
@Joe Ferreira I'd Take The First Option
Why Niko Bellic in the game 10:22
Name of Giant Haystacks Theme?
+zaire lane Chopin's Funeral March
+zaire lane Funeral March (Chopin)
:'(
Ian R. Key I Don't Think Undertaker Would've Used This Funeral March If He Were In This
+zaire lane no can someone find the exact version of this and not the piano version
GOD, This game Was Absolute SHIT! The best thing about this game is the roster, the Music & the Use of weapons & blood! It's so weird & yet awesome seeing all these classic wrestlers be involved in more violent & gruesome matches!
that's not all wrestlers... you forget of unlockable characters...
Unless he never did unlock 🔓them as this game 🎮 was a pain in the ass sometimes, but so nostalgic.
