A follow-up to WWF WrestleMania and WWF WrestleMania Challenge, Wrestlerage would have been a side-scrolling beat-'em-up starring eight fictional wrestlers. The game was allegedly 60% complete when it was cancelled, due to the uncertain financial prospects of releasing a wrestling game that did not feature any real-life wrestlers.
