Hello, and welcome to IGN's Guide for WWE Smackdown! Here Comes the Pain! If you are reading this, then that means you desire to become the wrestling world champion in some form or another. Perhaps you want to rule as Ultimo Dragon. Maybe your aim is to take over as Tajiri. Or perhaps the call of the cover boy, Brock Lesnar, is too enticing to resist.

Whoever you choose to be, we've got you covered. From all the basic info to get you started to detailed bios and moveslist for all 65 wrestlers in the game (including the 11 legends), IGN Guides has the script to victory. Read on to take your rightful throne atop the WWE.

Get the guide here.

Finish a whole season to unlock the Credits.

Here's a way to get the gals to their underwear faster. Give any woman that is allowed to participate in the Bra & Panties match the Rock's signature "The People's Elbow" move as the special move.

During a Bra & Panties match, do the People's Elbow, and the wrestler will try to remove an elbow pad, but since there is none on a female model, she takes off her pants instead! Do this again and she takes off her shirt. Do not allow computer opponents to do this (do not select modified wrestlers for the CPU) or the game will freeze.

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.

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 two or three times and the wall should break, revealing a secret room.

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.

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.

Break open one of the two 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.)

You can whip your opponent into the glass in the elimination chamber to do lots of damage.

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.

To view an extra video, beat 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.

The experience points you earn depend on the difficulty:

• Easy - 6 points per match
• Normal - 12 points per match
• Hard - 18 points per match
• Smackdown - 24 points per match

In the parking lot, look at the area behind the motorcycle and to the right of the car. You should see a section locked off by a gate. Irish whip your opponent into this gate to break it. Irish whip them into the now open area to electrocute the opponent for an easy win.

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

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

In a match that allows interference, press R3 to have someone come to your rescue. This only works if you have an interference match and if you are in a stable.

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.

To reverse a smackdown, press L2 and R2 together when your opponent attempts to use it.

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

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.

If you and a friend each create your own wrestlers and then try to save them on each other's Memory Cards, you'll 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. Then, 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.

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.

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.

Play with the character that you want to raise the Season Stats of with their Original Stats during the season. Save all the Exp you gain. After Wrestlemania go to New Season and look at that characters Season Stats they now match your Original Stats without you even using 1 single Exp Point you earned. 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.

In the parking lot where you drop the boxes on the forklift, you can get more boxes by driving the forklift all the way to the left of your screen (there will be a bunch of boxes) just drive into the boxes and they will appear.

When the referee is knocked down, make him earn his pay and press CIRCLE to pick him back up (as if to set an opponent up for another grapple). Once standing, the referee will behave normally without any ill effects.

If you're having a time to winning a First Blood Match, try using Eric Bischoff as your wrestler. If you have unlocked his 2nd attire (Leather Jacket) choose that costume. For some reason, Eric cannot bleed, no matter how many times he is hit.

Want to perform your opponent's smackdown but don't know what position they should be in? When your opponent is stunned or on the ground (and you have 2 smackdown icons) press L2 only. A smackdown icon appears and should tell you what position your opponent must be in for their smackdown.

This trick is valid only if one of the participants (not the player) has Triple H's Death Lock. During a triple threat ladder / TLC match, simply wait for that wrestler to do the HHH Deathlock. Since the move takes so long to execute, you can easily climb the ladder and grab the belt with no hassle.

Take your opponent to the parking lot and throw him at the big WWE truck and he will automatically climb the truck. Stand back and your opponent will walk off, taking a large amount of damage. Repeat as necessary.

After you go through a season, watch all of the credits. At the end, you will see John Cena do a rap.

First, you have to play Elimination Chamber with two characters that have a long range aerial move (spear, dropkick, etc.). Once all CPU's are eliminated, climb the turnbuckle to the top of the cell. Make the second player climb the turnbuckle beneath the cell that the first player climbed. Then, do your missle dropkick and you will be out of the cage. Do the long range move for the other person on top of the cell and both of you will be out of the cell.

If your created character's win/loss statistics are less than favorable, simply go to the "Create an Appearance" screen and copy your created character. Not only will your attributes carry over to the copy, but your "new" character will have a clean win/loss record.

First go to the training room in the backstage selection mode. Then pound the punching bag into the wall in front of it. You'll see the Wall start to crack. That's a good thing. Keep doing it until the wall breaks then throw your opponent into the shower. Also you'll see lockers. Throw your opponent into one of them and a side of the locker will fall down pick it up and hit your opponent with it as a weapon!

When you are at Rebellion, look closely at the fist that has the letters spelling out Rebellion. If you wait a little, and look quickly enough, you will see the WWF logo appear, not WWE.
