For the time being, Wrestlemania XIX is the undisputed wrestling game for the GameCube - and it doesn't look like any other company is making a real effort to unseat it from its position at the top.

WrestleMania XIX supports 4 player multiplayer action so you and a bunch of friends can get together and Lay the Smack down.
WrestleMania XIX is set for a Q3 2003 release so there's definitely enough time for the developers to fine tune the game a bit more before releasing it, but from past experiences with THQ's E3 wrestling offerings, what you play at the show is pretty much what usually ends up on store shelves.

Last year THQ said that WrestleMania X8 would be closer to the classic wrestling games for the N64, but it looks like WrestleMania XIX is the game that will deliver on that promise.

 WWE WrestleMania XIX Review @ DigitalBackSpin   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
WWE WrestleMania XIX fixes many of the problems that plagued its predecessor, while adding a few new ones to the mix as well.
Also, the convoluted button configuration from WrestleMania X8 is a thing of the past, and has been (thankfully) replaced with a much simpler, yet no less diverse, control scheme.
Much like in the first game, you will see folks struggle to get to their feet during a long, arduous match, although now it is done with a bit more life to it, which adds more drama to a match.

 WWE Wrestlemania XIX - Gamers Republic
WWE Wrestlemania XIX comes out this week and is the first WWE wrestling game out this season.
Wrestlemania on Gamecube was a smackdown clone with a nice reversal system, so I wasn't very pleased with it either.

 Wrestlemania XIX (GameCube) Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
The gameplay is a much revamped version of Wrestlemania X8, where each superstar has strong and weak grapples, a weak grapple is performed by pressing the A Button plus the direction stick, the strong grapples are performed by holding down the A Button and using the direction stick.
Stephanie McMahon gets you on her side and tells you if you complete 25 missions in order to prevent Wrestlemania 19, so Vince McMahon will be financially ruined and he will have to sell the WWE to her, she then will reinstate you.
It's a huge improvement over Wrestlemania X8, CAW mode has been totally revamped, Revenge mode is passable, the roster offers a pretty good selection of your favourite WWE Superstars (and Triple H), most importantly the gameplay has been revamped, and now its far superior than anything I have played on since No Mercy.

Wrestlemania", as he puts on another amazing performance with Chris Jericho, possibly one of the most underrated wrestlers of his time.
It was the 3rd match of theirs at Wrestlemania, and instead of being overkill, this match, in my mind, trumps their other two great matches.
This was a great WrestleMania event and although there are some not so good matches here and there, the last two match managed to captivate the crowd and the main event certainly proved to be an excellent finish although Hogan-McMahon nearly ruined my night at Safeco Field.

Last year's Wrestlemania X8 was met with disappointment from critics and gamers alike, so doubts were flying about this year's release.
Let me start right off and say that of the three WWE titles released this year, Wrestlemania XIX will probably be the worst one (the final verdict will be rendered once Smackdown!: Here Comes the Pain is out).
The most notable difference to Wrestlemania XIX from its predecessor is the grappling system.

 GameSpy: WWE WrestleMania XIX Review
Wrestlemania XIX is the closest thing that THQ has done yet to return to its N64 roots.
The grappling system is an achingly and carefully modified version of AKI's grappling system: strong and weak grapples, strong and weak strikes, taunts on the unused pad, and matches that ebb and flow on a momentum meter.
Fantastic ring entrances, attack animations that flow from one to the next, perfect character models; these are all useless when they are supported by a wrestling engine that provides little to no strategy or depth.

XIX comes in now with a revised combat model and improved gameplay and delivers, for the most part, in a decent and fun game.
XIX changes a number of aspects of combat.

XIX features your standard counter system, with different buttons for grappling and striking as well as a counter button for each.
XIX actually seems deeper in this respect, as each wrestler has several different finishers that can be utilized depending on specific circumstances (ex: where an opponent is in relation to the player).
Graphically XIX doesn’t wow with special effects, but is very solid in all areas.

WrestleMania X8 couldn’t even hold a candle to any of Aki’s wrestling games, whether it’s Def Jam Vendetta or the classic WCW vs. nWo: World Tour.
Knowing this, Yukes began development of WrestleMania XIX with thought in mind of ripping Aki’s formula even further than what was with its predecessor.
His daughter Stephanie (Daddy’s little princess) then offers you a nice proposition, which is to basically stop WrestleMania XIX from occurring by destroying the site of the event, etcÂ… Personally, I find the story behind the whole thing ridiculous, but nothing compares to the agony you’ll endure when actually playing it.
