Bugs:WWE SmackDown!: Here Comes The Pain

This page details bugs of WWE SmackDown!: Here Comes The Pain.

Gimmick Match Glitches

First Blood

• If a Superstar with a powerbomb finisher (such as, by default, Batista and Kane) performs it against a referee while that character's head fatigue indicator is red, and the referee somehow executes a reversal, the game will act as if the referee has won the match. (The referee uses the default SmackDown! theme song during the celebration.)
• Eric Bischoff, as a General Manager, cannot bleed, making it impossible for him to lose a First Blood match if chosen.

Bra and Panties

• Assigning The Rock's "The People's Elbow" as a finisher of a built-in female wrestler causes her to remove her clothes instead of an elbow pad when executed in a Bra and Panties match. This can result in an unfinishable match, and if the move is executed twice (per Diva) the game will crash if an attempt to remove a piece of clothing that isn't there anymore is detected.

Times Square Glitch

If a CPU-controlled wrestler reaches a certain point of the road in the Times Square backstage arena, the wrestler could be stuck walking in that location indefinitely.
