Adam Cole is a 90s kid and most of the 90s kids and early 2000s kids grew up playing video games on the consoles like Nintendo 64, PlayStation and Sega Dreamcast. In the earlier days there were consoles like Nintendo, Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. Every platform had their own professional wrestling video games, unlike these days where every platform gets the same game. Things during the 90s and 2000s were quite different in the world of video games.

“Between [WrestleMania 2000] and No Mercy, and they’re two incredibly similar games as well. There is a part of me, and again, there are certain aspects – I do feel like No Mercy honed in on what made WrestleMania 2000 so special and kind of perfected it.
“That initial playtime with WrestleMania 2000 was so legendary that it’s like, ‘Maybe that one deserves all the credit.’ Then WCW vs. nWo [World Tour], that one was really good.”
