In the Exhibition fights you get to select one wrestler and a partner who acts like a special attack. You whistle them in, and they'll help you by either landing their finisher on your opponent or they'll try other stuff like double team attacks, or in some cases, they'll even break up the pin. Action takes place in several different venues starting in the ring, then moving to other places like the boiler room, the parking lot and other environs typically attributed to the ~WWF's Hardcore matches. Outside interference is present in fully force as well. Expect to have to worry about small gangs of wrestlers zipping down to ringside and interfering with your Exhibition fights.

Royal Rumble also features a dynamic ~VMU animation while the game is running and statistic tracking like how many wins your wrestler has managed, how many times each wrestler is used and how much hurt your put on your pals. (All without lighting a table on fire in your backyard and getting power bombed through it Imagine that).
