A bit of a step down from HCtP in terms of its season mode but it does introduce some neat mechanics like the heel/face dichotomy. Being the first game to introduce voice acting, the season mode had become more limited as to what can happen and the system for progress is much more rigid compared to past games. But it does introduce some new stuff like the "create-a-PPV" mode which is pretty neat. Pretty underwhelming compared to past and future games, but alright on its own merits.
