Quoted from LesManley:

I like Wrestlemania. I think there are lots of Stern pins that are worse than Wrestlemania personally. I did put my money where my mouth was and I picked one up. I drove the farthest I have ever driven to pick up a game to bring home a beautiful HUO one and I am glad I did. Could the game better, absolutely, but it's not a cookie cutter layout and it's super difficult so it appeals to me. Plus I like the Wrestling theme, not as much the newer wrestling characters, but I wasn't going to spring for the LE with the classic wrestlers at that time. Part of the hate for Wrestlemania is the original code with the amount of time spent in the ring and that has been fixed. Also, the ruleset is not easy to follow, so it gets hate because people can't figure it out. There are certainly some things that need to be fixed code wise, but it is currently my only game that I haven't ever gotten to the wizard mode on, so it keeps me coming back for more.
