Smackdown vs. Raw/Awesome

""Did I mention the ring would be surrounded in flames?"
 * Christian's Road To Wrestlemania in 2011, most notably
 * Know Your Role had the real life angle of Triple H and his feud with The Rock and Austin, who appears to destroy the DX bus. Hearing Austin verbalize his atch phrases was awesome at the time.
 * Shut Your Mouth has several. There was Austin being drafted after stunning both Ric Flair and Vince McMahon. You can force Vince to kiss the ass of the 400 plus pound Rikishi. Shaving Kurt Angle bald. The reveal of the nWo. Essentially the big storylines of the year truly brought to life for the first time.
 * Oh, but the kicker? After the first year, the game effectively redoes the Invasion with Raw & SmackDown instead.
 * Here Comes the Pain had your chosen character's intro and outro, a black and white montage of them describing why they fight (especially awesome if it's your CAW) and if you win season mode a video of how you made it to the top.
 * Where to begin with 2006?
 * There's the Legends Tour, which pokes digs at Mohammed Hassan and Bret Hart, a spot on portrayal of a Mick Foley promo and Austin interfering in the proceedings. For once a well thought out story mode where your decisions actually matter. Triple H's promos after the attack on Ric Flair and run in to save you from Teddy Long's wrath.
 * 2008 has Vince McMahon challenging you to become the best wrestler in the business, ending with the reveal that he had brought back ECW.
 * 2009 has John Cena's Tribute to the Troops angle. Even if you're a Cena hater the first scene to his Road to Wrestlemania is sweet, and to play at the special Iraq arena is awesome.
 * WWE '12 features the Hero Story, where you control a created character named Jacob Cass. Why is it awesome?
 * The entire final match is basically one big CMOA with Jacob Cass.
 * During the course of the match, Cass.
 * After.
 * How do you win? First, . And only then does the referee call for the bell, . Don't forget, that at the start of this storyline, Jacob Cass was just the kid who won NXT, and in the course of 4 solid months That's more than freaking awesome.
 * 2010 had a cross brand Road to Wrestlemania where it would be determined who would be champion of champions. One week John Cena and Triple H have their own challenge for each other. Cena's is a crowd approval gimmick. Triple H however wants to see who can use their Finishing Move the most in a match.

""It's time to play the game.""
 * Ring ropes are set on fire ''for the Inferno match.'


 * WWE '12 introduces the Comeback to the game, which allows a player to reenact a wrestler's Five Moves of Doom sequence, and the awesome goes both ways here: For the player activating the comeback, actually getting to complete the sequence to win the match; and for the person on the receiving end, you can actually prevent the Comeback by pressing the correct button, and negating it.
