This is a renaming guide for Matt Dickie's Wrestling Revolution 3D (Also will work with the recently released Wrestling Empire) The names of the wrestlers in this game are whacky, absurd and at times, hilarious. I have gone through and listed their real-life counterpart for those who wish to make the WR3D experience as "real world" as possible.

Some characterizations were obvious, others could be a couple of different wrestlers, in that case, I went with who I thought was the most likely person it was meant to be. I hope this helps anyone that might be confused.

Despite this massive list of wrestlers, this does not cover everyone in the game. There are dozens of original characters in Wrestling Revolution 3D and again the characterizations go from the intriguing to the insane, then onto hysterical.

You can overwrite anyone in-game to add a missing wrestler, a newer version, or maybe your favorite star has changed their appearance since the game's release, whatever the case is I hope this guide proves useful and you manage to create your own world of fun because in Wrestling Revolution 3D, the landscape is wide open and the possibilities are endless.
