WWE Bio

The WWE ring has never been a place for the meek of heart. Demented individuals have found solace delivering punishment there. Tortured souls have taken out their pain on hapless opponents. But even against that landscape, Mankind truly stands out from the crowd. Wearing a leather mask to help shield himself from the prying eyes of society, Mankind’s psychological issues are clearly visible. He tears his own hair out. He rocks back and forth incessantly. His speech is high-pitched and often quivering. But make no mistake. While Mankind’s outward mannerisms appear weak, he’s one of the most brutal Superstars in WWE history. If he must feel pain, Mankind wants everybody else to feel his pain, too. But there is another side to Mankind – the side yearning for acceptance and love. He so badly wants to be accepted, and many unscrupulous people have used that void to their advantage. And inevitably, Mankind turns his rejection into anger, and opponents usually have to pay a price for that. Mankind has produced several of the most memorable moments in WWE history. Some of these moments have been joyous, while others, frankly, have been uncomfortable to watch. In WWE ‘13 , Mankind returns in all his complex glory. As Jim Ross might say, Mrs. Foley’s baby boy has come home.

Breakdown

Mr. Socko returns! Playing as Mankind is a blast. He’s a great all-around Superstar, and in one of his longer Taunts, he sits down on the mat and rocks back and forth—it’s hilarious. He’s a good striker and great at reversals, so don’t be afraid to mix it up with your opponent and work toward a Finisher. When the Mandible Claw Finisher begins, the sock comes out and your opponent goes down. To get there, light up your opponent with strikes early (right and tap strike for a quick jab; hold strike for a haymaker knockdown) and move to grapples and pick them up to control keep the advantage. Taunt left and right for quick taunts when your opponent is down.
