WARNING: PHOTOSENSITIVITY/EPILEPSY/SEIZURES
A very small percentage of individuals may experience epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed
to certain light patterns or flashing lights. Exposure to certain patterns or backgrounds on a television
screen or when playing video games may trigger epileptic seizures or blackouts in these individuals.
These conditions may trigger previously undetected epileptic symptoms or seizures in persons who
have no history of prior seizures or epilepsy. If you, or anyone in your family, has an epileptic
condition or has had seizures of any kind, consult your physician before playing. IMMEDIATELY
DISCONTINUE use and consult your physician before resuming gameplay if you or your child
experience any of the following health problems or symptoms:
• dizziness • eye or muscle twitches • disorientation • any involuntary movement
• altered vision • loss of awareness • seizures or convulsion.
RESUME GAMEPLAY ONLY ON APPROVAL OF YOUR PHYSICIAN.
______________________________________________________________________________
Use and handling of video games to reduce the likelihood of a seizure
• Use in a well-lit area and keep as far away as possible from the television screen.
• Avoid large screen televisions. Use the smallest television screen available.
• Avoid prolonged use of the PlayStation®3 system. Take a 15-minute break during each hour of play.
• Avoid playing when you are tired or need sleep.
______________________________________________________________________________
Stop using the system immediately if you experience any of the following symptoms: lightheadedness,
nausea, or a sensation similar to motion sickness; discomfort or pain in the eyes, ears, hands, arms,
or any other part of the body. If the condition persists, consult a doctor.
NOTICE:
Use caution when using the DUALSHOCK®3 wireless controller motion sensor function. When using the
DUALSHOCK®3 wireless controller motion sensor function, be cautious of the following points. If the
controller hits a person or object, this may cause accidental injury or damage. Before using, check
that there is plenty of space around you. When using the controller, grip it firmly to make sure it
cannot slip out of your hand. If using a controller that is connected to the PS3™ system with a USB
cable, make sure there is enough space for the cable so that the cable will not hit a person or object.
Also, take care to avoid pulling the cable out of the PS3™ system while using the controller.
WARNING TO OWNERS OF PROJECTION TELEVISIONS:
Do not connect your PS3™ system to a projection TV without first consulting the user manual for your
projection TV, unless it is of the LCD type. Otherwise, it may permanently damage your TV screen.
HANDLING YOUR PS3™ FORMAT DISC:
• Do not bend it, crush it or submerge it in liquids. • Do not leave it in direct sunlight or near a radiator
or other source of heat. • Be sure to take an occasional rest break during extended play. • Keep this
disc clean. Always hold the disc by the edges and keep it in its protective case when not in use. Clean
the disc with a lint-free, soft, dry cloth, wiping in straight lines from center to outer edge. Never use
solvents or abrasive cleaners.

WWE ’12 has all the bone-crushing, high-flying, showboating, slobberknocking action you’ve
come to expect—plus a whole lot more.
Use the completely revamped Limb Targeting system to pick apart an opponent and find his
breaking point. Or, add insult to injury with a Wake-Up Taunt before putting him down for the
count and making him wish he’d never stepped into the ring with you. And speaking of the ring,
the all-new Arena Creator lets you customize every aspect of the ring, right down to the logo on
the apron.
You’ve never had this much control over creating the ultimate WWE experience, or so many
ways to bring the pain. So what are you waiting for? Lace up your boots and hit the entrance
ramp—your journey to WWE immortality begins now!
Note: These are the commands for Control Type A, the default control type. Control Type B
is available in the game options and reverses the commands for the directional buttons and
the left stick.

movement
Whether you want to walk up to your opponent and smack the taste out of his mouth, slide out of
the ring to settle things on the arena floor or climb up onto a turnbuckle to drop a flying elbow on
a helpless victim, it all starts with knowing how to navigate.
Most of the time, moving around the environment is as simple as pushing the left stick in
the direction that you want to go and pressing
å if you need to climb over, under or onto
something.

strong strikes and strike combinations
Striking is the quickest way to show your opponent who’s in charge. Pressing √ performs a
quick strike against your opponent. Holding
√ unleashes a powerful but slower (and easier to
counter) heavy strike. Combining
√ while pushing the left stick in a direction gives you a variety
of different strikes.
Pressing
√ as each strike lands creates a strike combination that sends your opponent reeling
and builds momentum in a hurry.

Note: A successful strike combination (all four strikes connect) leaves the opponent in a
standing groggy state and vulnerable to groggy grapple moves, top rope diving attacks and
other devastating attacks.

chain graPPles
All grapple attacks in WWE ’12 start from one of four chain grapple states. To enter a chain
grapple state, approach a standing opponent, hold
≈ and push the left stick in a direction.
Rear Waist Lock: ≈ + the left stick in any direction
Wrist Lock: ≈ + the left stick ñ facing opponent
Front Face Lock: ≈ + the left stick µ facing opponent or ≈ by itself
Side Head Lock: ≈ + the left stick ∫ facing opponent
Once your opponent is locked in a grappled state, you’ve got them right
where you want them. Use the following commands to dish out the
punishment or set them up for something even worse:
groggy graPPles
There’s nothing better than catching an opponent when
the lights are on but nobody’s home. To perform a groggy
grapple, approach an opponent from the front or behind
while they’re in a groggy state, tap
≈ and push the left stick
in any direction to execute a strong grapple attack.
To make an opponent groggy, land all four strikes in a strike
combination, lift up a downed opponent and reverse attacks
from a heavily damaged opponent. The Limb Targeting System (
∂ ) can also be utilized
(read up on the all-new Limb Targeting System below).

Note: After you send your opponent running, you have to act fast. After they bounce off of
the ropes for the second time, he regains control and can use running attacks against you.

reversals
Just because some jobber throws a punch at you, that doesn’t mean you have to stand there
and take it! Press
ƒ as soon as the opponent’s strike is about to land or grapple attack to
reverse it.
If you reverse a punch or a kick, you grab hold of your opponent’s arm or leg and have a short
window of opportunity to counterattack!
Positioning—neW!
For the first time, WWE ’12 gives you the power to put your
opponent exactly where you want him. Once you have him
at your mercy—either in a grappled state, or down on the
canvas or groggy—use the right stick to reposition them
strategically and hit them with your most powerful attacks.

Running Attack Against Opponent in Corner
running attacks
What’s better than walking up to an opponent and
smacking them around? Running at them and plowing
straight into them! Run at your opponent by holding
ß

√ or

diving attacks
Ring posts aren’t just there to hold the ropes up—you can
also climb up onto them and unleash devastating aerial
attacks against an unwary opponent. Use diving attacks
against standing or downed opponents, but be careful
not to let your foes turn them against you. It’s a long way

finishers and signature moves
The best way to pop the crowd and put your opponent down for the count is to hit him with a
Signature move or Finishing move, like John Cena’s Attitude Adjustment or CM Punk’s GTS.
First, you need to completely fill your momentum meter by successfully landing attacks and
taunting your opponent. Once it’s full, you have 20 seconds to perform your Signature Move.
If you hit your opponent with your Signature Move, you get a Super Finishing Move icon. If you
guessed that that lets you execute a Super Finishing Move, then congratulations—you’re sharp.
Use the Super Finishing Move quickly, or it will turn into a regular Finishing Move icon.
You can also choose not to perform a Signature Move and store a regular Finishing Move icon.
You’ve also got to be in the right position to perform your Superstar’s Signature Move or
Finishing Move. Each Superstar has different conditions, and you can check them out by
viewing them in the Superstar Select Menu, or by having a look at his move-set in the
Create modes.
Note: Your Superstar’s Charisma level determines how many different Finishing Moves
he can have. If it’s 1-79, he can have one Finishing Move. 80-89 gives him two Finishing
Moves, and 90-100 gives him three Finishing Moves.
Note: View the wake-up taunts description on page 16.
14 15

Wake-uP taunts—neW!
What’s worse than getting jaw-jacked by a devastating
Finishing Move? Being humiliated by your opponent with a
Wake-Up Taunt before he puts you away!
When you’ve got a Super Finishing Move icon stored, you
can force a downed opponent to his feet with a Wake-Up
Taunt. The opponent stumbles to his feet—hit him with
your Super Finishing Move quickly, or you’ll lose it!
Pinning an oPPonent
Once you’re sure that your opponent has had enough, it’s
time to hook the leg and go for the three-count.
When your opponent is down on the mat, approach him
and press
Ω to go for the pin. To kick out, the opponent
must hold
≈ to fill the kick-out meter and release the
button once the meter reaches the target zone.
If you are the pinning Superstar and want to toy with your
opponent a little longer, you can cancel the pin at any time
by pressing
å .
breaking Point submission
When your opponent is down, groggy or in a grappled
state, hold
≈ to lock them in a Breaking Point Submission.
Your opponent must quickly struggle free of the
submission hold, or they will tap out and lose the match.
You and your opponent must mash
≈ / Ω / √ / ç to
increase the pressure or escape, respectively. But watch
out—you can exhaust yourself if you try to get a strong opponent to tap out! To break the
submission hold before this happens, press
å . However, be aware that doing so will cost you
a sizable amount of momentum.

WWE ‘12’s all-new Limb Target System gives you the power to zero in on specific body parts
and work them over until your opponent can’t do anything except watch the ref raise your arm
in victory.
You can target the limbs of a standing groggy opponent, a grappled opponent or a downed
opponent.

You’ll know that your attacks are taking their toll when your opponent holds that part of their
body in agony. Once you see that, victory is close at hand!
Targeting different body parts has different effects on your opponent:
Head:
•Striking or grappling their head is more likely to force them into a
standing groggy state.
•Attempting a submission against their head increases the odds that
they’ll tap out
Arm:
•Opponent’s Breaking Point Submission strength is reduced
•Attempting a submission against their arms increases the odds that
they’ll tap out
Leg:
•Opponent’s walking speed is reduced
•Running is impaired, and the opponent may randomly collapse while
running
•Attempting a submission against their legs increases the odds that
they’ll tap out
Torso:
•Opponent’s adrenaline meter is reduced
•Standing groggy grapples can now be executed following a Gut Kick
(the left stick
˚ or ˙ + √ ). While the opponent is bent over
from the kick, push the left stick
µ / ≤ / ∫ / ñ + ≈ to perform one of
four different groggy grapple moves.
•Attempting a submission against their torso increases the odds that
they’ll tap out
In an Extreme Rules Match, the only rule is that there are no rules! Brawl outside of the ring,
smash your opponent with a steel chair.
All of these moves apply to any match where you can use objects against your opponent—
though if you try to use them in non-Extreme Rules Matches, you might wind up disqualified.

To win a Ladder Match, TLC Match or Money In the Bank Match, you must climb a ladder to get
within range of an object suspended over the ring (usually a Championship). Use the shadow
under the suspended object to line up the ladder, and then climb all the way up the ladder.
When you reach the top, hold the right stick
µ to grab the object. When the Superstar has
grabbed hold of the object you will be prompted to PULL the item by moving the right stick
≤ .
Time it correctly to receive another opportunity to pull the item down. And time your move
carefully—if your timing is off, you’ll be forced to start over.
Note: When you want to knock over a ladder without picking it up, striking it (
√ ) is the quickest
way to do it. But if there are one or more Superstars on it, the fastest and most effective way to
topple it (and the opponents on it) is to approach it and press
≈ .
Climb the ladder and push the right stick µ to grab the suspended object
above the ring.
When the prompt to remove the object appears, push the right stick
≤ to
pull it down.

Steel Cage Matches are among the most brutal matches in WWE ’12. Superstars are
surrounded by four unforgiving walls of chain link fence. Not only does the cage keep the action
in the ring, it can also be used to damage your opponent.

Six Superstars enter the Elimination Chamber, but only one will leave with the victory! Two
Superstars begin the match, and additional Superstars enter, one at a time. When a Superstar is
pinned, they’re removed from the match, which continues until only one remains.
Use the Steel Cage Match controls in the Elimination Chamber, as well as these special actions:
Steel Cage Matches are dangerous, but Hell In a Cell Matches are potential career enders! All
of the Steel Cage Match controls apply to Hell In a Cell, but there are some particularly vicious
moves that can only be executed in WWE’s most dangerous match type.

Double the mayhem of a regular WWE match by teaming up with a partner and taking on a pair
of opponents! In regular Tag Team matches and Tornado Tag Team matches, the objective is
to win by either pinfall or submission.
In a regular match, each teammate must tag in and out of the match, and the legal member of
one team must beat the legal member of the other team. In Tornado matches, all Superstars
are in the ring simultaneously, and any member of one team can defeat any member of the
other team.

In an Inferno Match, the ring is surrounded with searing flames, and the only way to win is to
set your opponent on fire!
The temperature increases as successful attacks are performed. Once it reaches its maximum
and the flames become a blazing inferno, drag the opponent toward the flames. If you have
inflicted enough damage on them, they will not be able to resist your infernal efforts!
Note: Perform a finisher to increase the ring temperature to maximum instantly. For a brief
time, you can try to throw the opponent through the fire and out of the ring for the victory!
The 40-man Royal Rumble over-the-top-rope elimination match is one of the most famous
annual events in WWE. Anything goes, as long as you don’t leave the ring once you enter!

ranked matches
Compete in a ranked match against a PlayStation®Network opponent. Your performance
affects your record and PlayStation®Network ranking. Make sure you’re at the top of your
game before you step into the ring for one of these ultra-competitive matches. With each
amazing match you perform in, you’ll earn prestige toward advancing through the ranks and
titles.
Player matches
Similar to Ranked Matches, these put you head-to-head against an online opponent, but the
result does not affect your PlayStation®Network ranking. Compete in a custom match (you
select the match type) or create a session where you play matches exclusively with a single
opponent.
royal rumble
Enter a Ranked or Player Match Royal Rumble to go up against other players to see who
the most tenacious competitor is! Royal Rumble PlayStation®Network lobbies allow up to 12
players to compete against each other. Each player selects their Superstar that they’ll begin the
match with. When the match is first loaded, each player is randomly assigned one of the first
entry numbers available – depending on the number of players in the match. As players get
eliminated from the match and wait for their next Superstar to enter the Rumble, they’ll have
the opportunity to score points by correctly guessing which Superstars will be eliminated next
or which Superstar will enter the Rumble next. The last player to be standing alone in the ring
after 39 Superstars have been eliminated will be declared the winner.
In Ranked Royal Rumble Matches, you’ll earn a number of prestige points based on how many
Superstars you eliminate, how long you last without being eliminated, consecutively eliminating
Superstars, escaping eliminations and more. The number of players in a Ranked Match
determines the overall amount of prestige toward PlayStation®Network ranking that each
player can earn for participating in the match – the more players in the match, the more points
each player can earn. In Player Royal Rumble Matches, prestige and PlayStation®Network
ranking will not be affected.

Dirty Pin
When your opponent is down near the ropes, stand next to the ropes and execute
a pinfall with both of your legs propped up on the ropes, giving you unfair leverage
to increase your chances of getting the three-count.
Move Thief
Steal your opponent’s Finisher and use it against them by holding
∂ and
pressing the directional buttons
µ to enter the Move Thief state. You have 20
seconds to execute the Finisher from the time you enter the Move Thief state.
Comeback
If you have this ability, you will be prompted to press
ç when your Superstar
has sustained moderate limb damage. Pressing
ç at the correct time will let you
perform a dramatic comeback. This cannot be used when you have a Finisher or
Signature Move available.
Hammer Throw
When Irish whipping an opponent, hold
Ω to send an opponent smashing into a
turnbuckle or flying over the ropes and down to the arena floor.
Resiliency
Superstars and Divas with this ability can use it once per match to dramatically
improve the odds of kicking out of a pin attempt. While being pinned, press
å to
increase the target zone on the pin meter.
Outside Dives
Press
√ while moving into the ropes, or run across the ring and press √ near
the ropes to execute a diving attack or running diving attack against an opponent
outside of the ring.
Springboard Dives
While near the ropes or running toward the ropes, hold the left stick toward the
ropes and press
√ to execute a springboard attack from the ring apron.
Leverage Pin
Superstars with this ability can counter running attacks and groggy grapple
attempts from a heavily damaged opponent into pin attempts called “leverage
pins.” In a leverage pin, the defending Superstar can try to escape normally
by reaching the blue target area of the kick-out meter, or they can reverse the
leverage pin into a pin of their own by reaching the yellow area of the meter.
Ring Escape
When down near the ropes, press
å to slide under them to ringside and escape
your opponent. You can use this ability up to three times per match.
