Hint: Go through the pre-season as many times as needed:
Note: This trick require two memory cards, with WWF SmackDown! save on both of them. Simply trade your characters from your first memory card to your second memory card. Then, go through the pre-season then trade back. It may be possible to repeat this process.
Hint: Get more weapons:
When you are in an "Anywhere Fall" match you can get more objects by whipping people into things. For example, in the parking lot, whip someone into the ambulance to get a stretcher. Whip someone into the fire extinguisher box on the wall to get the extinguisher. In the back room after the stage, whip someone into the soda machine to get a soda/beer can out of it.
You can also get more weapons or change weapons outside the ring by holding R1 and pressing the D-pad towards the turnbuckle. Note: This cannot be done in "I Quit" matches.
When you are in a Hard Core match, go to the outside of the ring with a weapon. Once you are outside, walk directly into the ring (and do not stop walking). Then press R1 to cycle through the weapons. Note: A weapon must be in your hands for this trick to work.
In a Hardcore match or Anywhere match, Irish Whip your opponent into the gray curtain by the WWF logo that leads to the back. You can get the IC belt to use as a weapon.
On the Stage, Irish Whip your opponent into the rods under the Titan Tron, by the exit, to get a lead pipe.
You can Irish Whip your opponent in the hallway into the THQ vendor. A soda can will fall out, which you can use as a weapon.
Irish Whip your opponent into the dumpster in the parking lot to get Pierre. Do it again to get a 2X4.
Irish Whip your opponent into the white crates (by the truck in the backstage area) to get an urn.

Hint: Other Anywhere Fall effects:
Bring your opponent to the garage and throw him into the fire extinguisher to the right of the ambulance to get the extinguisher and will hear sirens. Throw your opponent into the sink in the kitchen and the water will begin running.
Hint: Faster season mode bonuses:
To get the yearly season mode bonuses faster, simply skip through it.
In the regular season mode if you exit, save, then go back and continue you should be at the next event. This skips over the one that you exited from. For example if the game is at Raw Is War and you exit, when you re-enter you will either be at SmackDown or an In House Show. Note: This will not work with PPV events such as Summer Slam, King Of The Ring, etc.
Note: You need to go to April before you can complete a season.
Press Triangle and answer "Yes" to skip the King Of The Ring.
Choose to exit the game from the start menu when faced with a Royal Rumble and you will skip to the next month.
Hint: Faster points (ranking):
Fight in many exhibition matches. These also count on the win/loss record. You can gain a Title in exhibition if qualified -- get a title match as soon as you can.
Hint: Be friends with different people:
In pre-season talk to someone under the medium or hard difficulty setting. Then, set the difficulty level back to easy or another setting.
Hint: Easy five star ability for moves - skill:
When creating a wrestler, set all your moves from Grapple to either Power/Techinical/Rough/Speedy . Make sure you only have one type (in the following example they are all Power). Make sure you use a lot of Power moves in the matches while you are in pre-season mode -- keep doing Piledrivers and similar moves). After a few months you will acquire the skill "Power/Speedy/Tech/Rough Skill +" . This automatically sets your skill to 5 and letting you choose any move you wish from that category.
Hint: Easy two-on-one matches:
At the beginning of the match, quickly do a move to one opponent, then punch the other one. After that, run outside the ring and one man should follow you. You now should have an easier time beating one man up at a time. Be sure to watch your other opponent in case he or she comes to attack you.
Hint: Winning handicap matches, 3-way dance, and 4-way dance matches:
These matches can be very frustrating in pre-season and season modes because when you are trying to pin someone, the other participant(s) will break the pin. An easy way to win this type of match is by KOing your opponent. Simply beat up your chosen opponent and keep on beating him until you have a green dot. After that, you can KO him by using your finishing move. Sometimes, it may take two to three attempts before your opponent can be knocked out.
If you try and pin in one of these matches, the other wrestlers in the ring will usually break you out. They cannot break you out of a submission or a special move. If you do a special move and the victim does not get KOed, beat them up a bit more then try a submission. Usually it is a good idea to take someone outside of the ring to fight and fend off anyone else who wants to take a shot at you -- but let them attack the other participant if they want.
Hint: Created wrestler Evil entrance:
When creating a wrestler, use Al Snow's entrance move.
Hint: Created wrestler Longer theme music:
When creating a wrestler, use the Stonecold Special as your winning move.
Hint: Created wrestler Morphing hands:
When creating a wrestler, pick the last shirt. When you start a match your hands will morph into different forms as you fight, taunt, ect.
Hint: Created wrestler White eyes:
When creating a wrestler, use Undertaker's head and entrance. When your created wrestler appears, his eyes will roll back leaving them white.
Hint: Created wrestler Special taunts:
Create a wrestler and give him/her a special body and they will do a special taunt. For example, create a wrestler with the metallic body and Austin's taunt. When you do the taunt, his arms will turn into large spikes instead of using fingers. Create a wrestler with the metallic body and give the D-X taunt. When you do the taunt, his hands will turn into big round stones.
Hint: Created wrestler With on all fours double team:
When creating a wrestler give him/her the On All Fours taunt. Start a handicap match with a friend. When your opponent is in the corner, taunt. Your created wrestler should get on all fours. Have your friend run towards you. Your friend's wrestler should jump off your back. While in the air press X or Circle to do a double team.
Hint: Avoid recreating custom wrestlers:
When you have finished creating a wrestler, you cannot re-edit their profile (name, age, gender, entrance, etc.). Be careful with those entries, or you will have to recreate that person. However, you can edit everything else.
Hint: Create a team:
Create two, three, or four players in "Create A Superstar" mode. Get them all through the pre-season mode. Then go to a new regular season, and choose one or more of the created wrestlers. Then the game will prompt "Are You Sure?". Choose "Yes". A screen with "Solo, 2-Person Team, 3-Person Team, and 4-Person team" will appear. You will be prompted for who will be in this team, and what the name will be. The created wrestlers will appear with that name in tag-team matches during the season. This is especially useful when creating Too Cool, The Radicals, and any other team that is not already in the game. Note: In order for this to work in exhibition mode, you must save your season.
Hint: Best moves in Creating a Superstar:
For the best moves possible when Creating a Superstar set your character's ability points as follows. Keep the Attack and Defense at 1. Keeping them down enables you to get high skill points, which corresponds to "Level" when select moves. Note: You must create the wrestlers; if you read what it says after you complete the certain year it states "You are now able to CREATE etc…".
Hint: Create the Ultimate Superstar:
If you want to create a strong Superstar, go to pre-season mode and unlock many the character traits. When you have some that you want to use with a created wrestler, use them for things like Degeneration-X+ or other good wrestlers. Also, use other items such as good in matches or good moves. After setting the traits, complete a pre-season and your Superstar will be very good.
Create a Superstar with maximum weight and height. Set the Power Skill to level 3 or higher, and Power Attack to level higher than level 3. Have Bearhug as your superstar move. When fighting in a match, keep doing the Bearhug as many times as possible, and other moves such as the Anklelock, Boston Crab, and Camel Clutch when your opponent down. Your opponent will give up immediately within 30 seconds to 3 minutes.
Hint: Post your opponent between the legs:
You can post your opponent between the legs on the ring post. Get your opponent in the corner, then slip out of the ring. Get positioned behind or in front of him, depending on the throw, then quickly press Circle to grab the nearest foot.
Hint: Double-Team Springboard Plancha:
Select either the Hardy Boyz or Edge and Christian. Set your opponent up in the corner, then move one of your wrestlers a few steps in front of him. The other wrestler should be a couple steps behind him. Press L2 for the wrestler in front and he will squat on all fours. Press Triangle for the other wrestler and he will run on and jump off his partner. If you press X in the air, he will land on his opponent. Note: Your opponent does not have to be in the corner, but it just looks better.
In a Royal Rumble when an opponent is caught in the ropes, you and a friend can use the Double-Team Springboard Plancha to knock him out. Note: You must have a wrestler that gets down on all fours as a taunt to do this.
Hint: Double Senton Bomb:
Select a Handicap Match and set it up as 1P and 2P vs. Com. Have a friend be player two. Select the Hardy Boyz for players one and two, and anyone else for the CPU. Beat up your opponent badly, until Jeff Hardy has a green dot. Then, slam your opponent face-up in the middle of the ring. Both players one and two should climb up on the turnbuckles opposite each other. Have the player controlling Jeff press L1, and the player controlling Matt press X at the same time. If done correctly, they will perform a Double Senton Bomb and will score an easy victory.
Hint: Perfect Senton Bomb:
Irish Whip your opponent into the turnbuckle so he bounces off and lays on the mat. Then, climb the turnbuckle and execute the move.
Hint: Mr. Socko:
When you are about to do Mankind's special, press Down + Circle to get out Mr. Socko. When you do Mankind's special your opponent should give up right away.
Select Mankind and taunt by pressing L2 + D-pad. Mankind should take out Mr. Socko.
Hint Leap frog:
To do a leap frog, have a large amount of distance between you and your opponent. Face your opponent's back. When it is turned, hold Triangle then press Square. If done correctly, you will leap frog over and continue to run. Then, you will bounce off the ropes. Use your desired run attack move to destroy the competition.
Hint: Baseball slide:
Have your opponent face to face to slide under their leg. Have a large amount of distance between you and your opponent. Run while holding Triangle then press Square. This works best with the turn around move from behind for a good looking finish.
Hint: Jeff Jarret's hidden taunt:
When creating a wrestler give him/her the "Peace Sign" taunt. When you taunt, it will be Jeff Jarret's taunt.
Hint: Too Cool Sidestep:
Create a wrestler and select "Peace Sign" as your taunt (Jeff Jarret). Start a match and repeatedly press L2. Although slow, it looks like Two Cool's Sidestep.
Hint: Dragonrana:
This is a Hurrancana off the ropes. Set up the move so your opponent can stand still, then pull it off. If done correctly, you will get a pin.
Hint: The Worm:
When creating a wrestler such as Scotty Too Hotty or any other wrestler give them the "Peace Sign" taunt and the Austin Elbow Drop. When doing the move, press L2 to taunt a few feet away from an opponent on the ground, then execute the Austin Elbow Drop.
When creating a wrestler give him/her Edge's taunt and The Rock's taunt where he does the hand motions. Then knock your opponent down, back up a few steps, and do Edge's taunt. You should crawl towards your opponent. Then do The Rock's taunt when next to your opponent, and finish off with an Austin Elbow Drop.
Hint: Diving Fame Asser on a running opponent:
You must have the Diving Fame Asser for this trick. First, lure your opponent into a corner. Then, whip him/her into the ropes on the opposite side of the ring. Immediately climb the turnbuckle that your opponent was closest to after bouncing off the ropes. As soon as your opponent rebounds off the ropes and starts running back, do the Diving Fame Asser. Timing is the key, and it will take a few attempts to do this. Of course, you can only do this in the ring.
Hint: Double People's Elbow:
Select a 2-on-1 match playing as The Rock and a friend as Mankind. Get your opponent on the ground. Press L1 to perform the People's Elbow. When he starts running, have your friend start running as well. When your friend gets to the fallen opponent, have him/her press L2 to jump over the opponent. When The Rock starts to fall down for his Elbow Drop, have your friend do Mandkind's Elbow Drop. Note: This will work with any wrestler who has a standard elbow drop.
Hint: Fake People's Elbow:
Create a wrestler with The Rock's People's Elbow taunt and an Elbow Drop as one of his moves. This is hard to perform since your opponent will stay down for long. Go by a fallen opponent's head, do the taunt, run to one set of ropes, and press L2 to jump over your opponent. Then, when you bounce off the other side, wait until you stop at your opponent and do an Elbow Drop.
Hint: Setting up The People's Elbow:
When playing as The Rock, perform a Scoop Slam if your opponent is not groggy . After slamming them onto the mat, their head will be facing towards you. If the Smackdown! Meter does not appear, perform more Scoop Slams until the Meter is active.
Hint: Alternate Anklelock:
If you do not like the way Shamrock executes the Anklelock (he performs an Armbar then goes to the Anklelock), just create a wrestler with the Scissor Sweep in ready moves and have the Anklelock (not Shamrock Anklelock) in ground moves. To execute the alternate Anklelock, just perform the Scissor Sweep and then do the Anklelock before your opponent can move. You have a better chance of doing this if your opponent just received a brutal shot (for example, the Diving Fame Asser on a running opponent). You can do this "combo" anywhere.
Hint: Hidden Elbow Drop off the side of the cage:
Climb the side of the cage and, when you are about half way up, hold Back + X to drop the elbow. This can be done if your opponent is standing or knocked down.
Hint: Test Diving Elbow:
If a Test or a created player lands the "Test Diving Elbow" correctly, it will result into a pin. This works as long as your opponent is face up and a reasonable distance from your wrestler.
Hint: Slam opponent's face into cage or barricade:
When your wrestler is backed up the cage or barricade press Circle(2) to slam your opponent's face into the cage or barricade.
Hint: Boomerang bulldog/Face crusher:
Throw your opponent in the corner. As he falls, press Triangle to run then press Circle to Bulldog/Face crusher the opponent.
Hint: Throwing your opponent's head on the guard rail:
Simply throw you opponent to any part of the guard rail. After he or she hits, throw he or she again, but press L1. If done correctly, your opponent's head will be thrown to the guard rail.
Hint: Catapult power:
If you are playing with a friend in a handicap match, you can press Circle to throw your opponent into your partner and do any number of rope moves (such as the Back Drop, Power Slam, Side Walk Slam, Tiltawhirl Slam, Monkey Toss, Ready Clothesline, etc.)
Hint: Catapult of pain:
Using catapult power with a friend in a handicap match, have your friend go to the top rope. Irish Whip the opponent to your friend. When he is set, deliver a Missile Drop Kick or other effective move.
Hint: Mankind's chair attack on The Outlaws:
During pre-season mode, if you are confronted by HHH he will give you advice. If you tell him to shut up, you will be attacked by DX later and Mankind will come to the rescue with a chair to help you out of trouble.
Hint: X-Pac's Running Leg Drop:
Have your opponent on the ground on one side of the ring (or on the ground anywhere) and press Triangle to run. When you get to the center of the ring press X (Bronco Buster). It looks like his Running Leg Drop.
