WWE Crush Hour features Vince McMahon taking control over every television network, with WWE professional wrestling superstars appearing on every television show and commercial. His newest project, titled "Crush Hour", is a demolition derby-style show featuring more than thirty WWE superstars in custom cars, outfitted with mounted guns (Primary Weapon), and foreign objects (Optional Weapon) to enhance the destruction of the opponent's vehicles, and a "Special Move" which will inflict significantly more damage than the other aforementioned weapons. WWE Crush Hour also features audio commentary by Jim Ross.
