Beloved 2003 wrestling game WWE Smackdown! Here Comes The Pain doesn't have a single guide, and one fan is determined to change that. When the question "What's the best wrestling game ever made?" comes up, you'll typically be given two answers: the N64's WWF No Mercy or the PS2's WWE Smackdown! Here Comes The Pain. And while I'm personally in the WWE Smackdown! vs. Raw 2006 camp, it's undeniable that Here Comes The Pain is an all-timer – it's not like there are any other wrestling games that let you jump off a helicopter onto your opponent.

But better late than never.February 16, 2026 Over the course of one day, ThisGenGaming published four in-depth guides on Twitter covering Smackdown's season modes from April until November, going over recommended choices, storylines, and secrets you can find in the game, which can even depend on how popular your chosen wrestler is. ThisGenGaming also confirmed that they will write detailed guides for Smackdown's December to March seasons later today, and they plan to post all the information in a text-only format. So in the span of one day and some change, we've gone from no guides for one of the best wrestling games ever to having an expansive multi-part epic. You won't see this kind of dedication for some of the more mid entries like 2K18, that's for sure.
