The PlayStation 3 version received "mixed" reviews, while the Xbox 360 version received "generally unfavorable reviews", according to video game review aggregator Metacritic.[2][3] Despite some positive gameplay mechanics, good presentation and the inclusion of AAA legends, the game was criticised by reviewers for its slow gameplay and for being too similar to its WWE competitors.
