WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart has reflected on his experiences providing motion capture for WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game.

WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game was a fighting game released in 1995, based on similar games of the period such as Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter.

Speaking in an interview on WWE This Is Awesome, Hart spoke about how he found the work physically taxing:

“It was actually a really fun experience. I got to go to their warehouse where they had their whole setup. We had to dive and jump, just like you’re doing these moves on the invisible man, but nothing’s there.

“It took a lot out of me. I remember that it felt like someone was punching me in the ribs all day long. But it shows in the quality of the game.”

The game featured a number of other WWE legends of the period including The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Razor Ramon and Doink the Clown.
