Gameplay

Power Move Pro Wrestling is a pro wrestling game featuring 12 wrestlers.[2] The original Japanese version of the game was originally a New Japan Pro Wrestling licensed video game; due to the then-limited popularity of the promotion outside the country, an original roster of wrestlers was created for Power Move Pro Wrestling while retaining NJPW wrestler move sets.

Reception

Next Generation reviewed the PlayStation version of the game, rating it four stars out of five, and stated that "If there was a game that screamed for a WWF license and a US release, this is the one."[2]

Next Generation reviewed the PlayStation version of the game, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that "Overall, the impact is somewhat less than what we'd hoped for from a U.S. port, but Power Move Wrestling is still a solid game and an enjoyable distraction."[3]
