WWF Royal Rumble
Super punch:
Press B + Y as the LJN logo fades. A grunt will confirm correct code entry.
Wrestle same character:

Big head mode:
Successfully complete the game as Tatanka. Then, press A, B, Y, X, Start, Select.
Easy wins:
Repeatedly sweep the D-pad in circles as the game is starting. A grunt will confirm correct code entry. Start a match and punch twice to take out all your opponent's energy.
No referee:
Select tournament or one fall mode. Select a character and opponent. Line up your wrestler with the referee after the match begins. Hold Y until the referee stops moving. Your wrestler will knock down the referee. Use cheat moves such as L (eye gouge) or R (choke) while the referee is down to take advantage of your opponent.
Control wrestler selection screen background:
Press L when the wrestler selection screen is displayed. Press L(2) to stop the background from moving. Press R to speed up the background. Press R(2) to move the background at its fastest rate.

Hint: Easy win:
To win a match easily, climb the top turnbuckle and wait until your opponent starts running at you. At the same moment he crashes into the turnbuckle, jump off by pressing A or B. Keep doing this until his power is down, then use your special. This requires some practice.
When playing as Macho Man, wear down your opponent. Knock him down by the turnbuckle. Then, climb and press R to do his elbow.
Hint: Weakling referee:
Unlike in WWF Raw, where you can make the referee quit and come back but get stuck and glitch the game, in WWF Royal Rumble there are many different ways to hurt the referee. The easy way is to run into him. Another way is to be about two wrestlers lengths away from him and run. He will fall but immediately get back up. Another way is to punch him, and when he shakes his head, punch him again. He will then fall to the mat. Note: The referee in WWF Royal Rumble is the exact same referee in WWF Raw except with black hair. He seems to be modeled after referee Jack Dones.
Hint: WWF Attitude logo preview:
On the turnbuckles, the new WWF Attitude logo is seen. This game was made in 1993, and the Attitude logo did not arrive until 1998.
Glitch: Damage from chair:
Begin a Royal Rumble and get outside the ring. Get a chair and use it to hit your opponent's head. Remain outside the ring and execute a Power Bomb on the chair and your opponent will get the damage.
Select the same wrestler twice using the "Wrestle same character" code and win the match (for example, Randy Savage vs. Randy Savage). Then, at the main menu, select "Royal Rumble", but do not choose the difficulty setting. Instead, back out and select "Rematch", as it should still be available. You will now be entered into a Royal Rumble match with the mirror match you had selected. If done correctly, you should be able to eliminate your clone and have him come back later in the match again. If you do not eliminate him, it is possible to have three of the same wrestler in the match. Note: This cannot be done on emulators, as it will crash.
