This is true, but I can simplify it. All you have to do is get through RAW once and SmackDown! once in story mode. Doesn't matter with who, as long as each show is completed once.

Almost all the WWE legends may be purchased in the in-game shop. However, Jake The Snake Roberts can only be unlocked (and purchased) if you have a PSP copy of WWE Smackdown 2006. Use a USB-USB cable to connect your PSP to your PS2 and Jake The Snake will appear in the shop.

Complete the first year of general manager mode, draft Jake the Snake Roberts in the second year as one of your three picks. He will then be unlocked in the game, without the need for a PSP or a costly cheat device. (Unverified)

Create a CAW that is a super heavyweight and get his attributes as high as you can (playing season mode once should do it). Then go to the CAW menu and copy him. Go into the copied CAW's profile and change his weight to DIVA weight and continue to exit.

Exit the CAW by going to continue but don’t save. All the experience points from the copied CAW will be remove from that CAW and placed back in your experience pool. This will give you a ton of experience points and can be done over and over.

Casket Ender
Stock one finisher point and fill the momentum bar to max. Irish whip the opponent onto the casket (he should be sitting or leaning on it). Press L1 and the casket move will execute automatically.

Parking Lot Ender
Stock one finisher point and fill the momentum bar to max. Grab your opponent and punch him once in order to allow you to walk while holding the opponent by the hair. While in this stance, move to the limo's back door and press CIRCLE while the joystick is neutral. This puts your opponent into the limousine. Move your wrestler to the blue van and enter it, resulting in this special ender.

For this you must have a finisher icon in stock (just like the stage enders) as well have a match where the No DQ option is on. Hit the opponent in the stomach with a chair and press L1.
