In the mid-2000s, THQ and Studio Gigante set out to do something ambitious: capture the sheer spectacle of the “Grandest Stage of Them All” in a video game. The result was WWE Wrestlemania 21 , an exclusive title for the original Xbox that dared to be different. While it wasn’t a blockbuster hit like the SmackDown! vs. Raw series on PlayStation 2, it has since developed a cult following.

Remember: preserve the original disc if you have it, respect the legal lines, and always scan your downloads. Now go climb the ladder—just don’t expect a five-star classic.
