Released during the early era of the PlayStation 2, WWF SmackDown! Just Bring It introduced fans to an expanding roster and secret unlockables. Unlocking every hidden wrestler, arena, and match type requires specific actions across different game modes. Players must navigate short story paths and special challenges to expand their roster completely.
Unlocking Secret Superstars and Celebrity Roster Members
Unlocking roster members in Story Mode depends heavily on key decisions made during promos and match selections. Wrestlers like Spike Dudley, Tajiri, Rhyno, and Mick Foley become playable after completing specific storylines. Managing titles and talking to backstage staff such as Earl Hebner opens unique paths to unlock non-wrestling personalities.
Special characters outside standard wrestling storylines require distinct gameplay achievements. For example, players can unlock Fred Durst by competing in Slobberknocker Mode using the Undertaker and achieving over 15 victories. Unlocking Shane McMahon and Stephanie McMahon requires clearing other unlockables and completing title defenses.
Accessing Hidden Arenas and Special Match Types
Expanding your arena selection is primarily tied to championship achievements in Story Mode. Winning the main event match at WrestleMania unlocks the iconic WrestleMania X-7 arena for exhibition play. Alternate venues such as the InsurreXtion arena also become available through specific event progression.
Specialty match options are unlocked by accepting specific rival challenges during story promos. By interrupting promo segments, players earn the right to choose unlockable match rules like Street Fight, Last Man Standing, or Ultimate Submission. Winning these custom matches permanently adds the modes to your main menu.
Unlocking Create-A-Wrestler Assets and Extras
Customization options in Create-A-Wrestler mode are tied directly to title matches. Defending a championship belt once unlocks new move sets, entrance themes, and physical creation parts. Continuing to play through title defense series grants extra creation points to enhance custom wrestler attributes.
