Due to the nature of the gameplay, the game was suitable for both solitary and head-to-head play. This game received a revival in popularity in 1998 when The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table. This brought a cult following around the game and made it more popular than ever.
