You can tell it's SmackDown 1.5 due to the fonts and name plates from the previous game.

I like that camera angle with the knee strikes move.

[@gazasaurus3142]

There was such little time between Smackdown 1 and 2 i Wonder how much better 2 could have been with more development

[@wwfwrestlemania2000]

It may have had too much development considering we got those damn battle meters. 😂

[@James.chalmers]

It’s like smackdown 1 with added dlc 😂

[@evanhanley6437]

Absolutely love this footage! This game was awesome!

In this Beta Build, Triple H still had the Smackdown 1 Trunks where he's got the newer "hHh" design on the front but the "hhh" design on the back. In the final build of SD 2 he has the "hHh" on the front and back

[@Elfman126]

This was really fascinating since, I like many have loved this game since childhood and, I have been wanting to know about all the differences between the beta build and final release of this game. I knew there was a beta build of this and Smackdown 1 but, couldn't remember all the differences overall between both Smackdown 1+2 builds and, both Smackdown games.

[@James-ru5ni]

Wow where did you find this footage? Would love to see a mod bring back this alternate version of the smackdown arena! :D
