Since the game is highly compressed, your phone must work slightly harder to decompress data on the fly.
| Phone Chipset | Performance at 153 MB CSO | Frame Rate (Target 60) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 / 3 | Perfect. Can upscale to 4x. | 60 FPS (Stable) | | Snapdragon 870 / 888 | Excellent. Minor dips in 6-man matches. | 55-60 FPS | | Snapdragon 720G / 730G | Playable. Skip entrances. Use PAL (50Hz) mode. | 45-50 FPS | | MediaTek Dimensity 900 | Good. Use Vulkan renderer. | 50-55 FPS | | Exynos 1280 | Moderate. Expect lag in Hell in a Cell. | 40-48 FPS |
Tip: If the 153 MB version lags, switch to a "Super Light" 200 MB version which uses less aggressive on-the-fly decompression.
Q: Does this work on iPhone (iOS)? A: No. iOS emulation (Play!) is not mature enough to handle CSO compression. You need a jailbroken iPhone or a Windows PC. Since the game is highly compressed, your phone
Q: Can I play multiplayer (Bluetooth) on the 153 MB version? A: Yes, but compression has no effect on netplay. Use AetherSX2's "Controller Port 2" setting and connect two Bluetooth controllers.
Q: Why does my game freeze at the "THQ" logo? A: Your BIOS file is corrupted, or the CSO file was made with a faulty compressor. Re-download from a different source.
Q: Is there a 100 MB version? A: Some extremely cut versions exist (deleting all videos and half the audio), but they are unstable. 153 MB is the "sweet spot" for stability vs. size. Q: Does this work on iPhone (iOS)

If you have a flagship phone (S23 Ultra, Pixel 8 Pro, iPhone 15 – though iOS emulation is harder), you might want the Full ISO (1.2 GB) . Why would you choose the 153 MB version?
| Feature | Full 1.2 GB ISO | 153 MB Compressed | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Entrance Music | CD Quality | Low Bitrate MP3 | | Cutscenes | Clean DVD quality | Pixelated / Removed | | Roster Voice Lines | 100% Intact | Some lines missing or repeating | | Install Size on Android | ~1.7 GB | ~380 MB | | Best for... | Flagship phones with 128GB storage | Budget phones, old tablets, or saving space |
Crucial Note: The "Here Comes the Pain" story mode relies heavily on backstage cutscenes. In many 153 MB versions, these cutscenes are blank (black screen with subtitles). You can still play, but you won't see Vince McMahon yelling at you.
PS2 games had full-motion video cutscenes. In a 153 MB rip, these videos are heavily pixelated, reduced to 15 frames per second, or removed entirely and replaced with static splash screens.
