@ HellBunny
Win the USA title. Then most likely a tag title will be opened (win SD! one) and then it should appear ;)

This topic is crying out desperatly for a pin / sticky

I agree, and not just because I posted it. I also encourage everyone to share any tips or tricks you may have for earning these abilities with a minimum amount of hassle. PS2 codes are coming, but they take time to find, and we have a bit of a wait until the current-gen patch drops (and there's no guarantee that it will let us choose our own abilities).

I'll start with something that's probably common knowledge by this point, but that's still worth bringing up: to earn the Object ability in a hurry, turn off DQ in the match settings and keep waffling your opponent with chairs and whatnot. This will also boost your Hardcore stat.

Good idea:

The 10 Taunts for the ability (fan favourite), sometimes you need more than ten. Whether it was me I cant confirme but in two matches I did excatly ten taunts and did not recieve. Afterwards I taunted a lot of get my charisma up so I cant post a decent didgit to aim for

Another good way to get hardcore is to have Hornswoggle give you a sheghlaille.

Evasive roll doesn’t work. It says you need to beat 2 out of 3, Jeff Hardy, Jimmy Yang Yang and or Rey Mystrerio.

I beat them all in a TLC match... is there something I am doing wrong?

I haven't tried going for Evasive Dodge yet, so I don't know how much help I'd be. Did you just have the TLC match with you against the other three all at once? You might want to try working a Triple Threat TLC between you and two of the three.

SIDE NOTE: I HATE Shelton Benjamin. I started playing Career Mode with a female CAW, so of course, I started off chasing the Women's title. Big surprise: two of the women on my path (Victoria and Melina) had Dirty Pin, and the other two (Candice and Mickie) had Possum Pin. I don't want either one of those, but I did want K.O., which meant I had to get 5-star matches against all the others. When I beat Beth Phoenix for the belt and moved on to the U.S. title path, there's good ol' Shelton right in the middle, sporting both Dirty Pin and Possum Pin. I still need 1 star to get a #1 contender's match, so I'll probably have to bite the bullet, fight Carlito again to get a 5-star match and get Dirty Pin. Not completely hopeless, but still...

$@#!%$# patch can't come soon enough. At least the PS2 codes are starting to flow.

I think that you have to beat them in a number 1 contender match

You could just use hacks then.

Yea, some of these sound absurd and extremely difficult to win. 5 Star rating in every match? Ouch.

I was playing on Legend with my new caw and I was getting five stars....not too difficult...just play on easy

Spring board: win Cruiserweight Title
WHAT??? So this means my diva-caws can´t have the Springboard ability?
...
codes, he we go!

In Career Mode, Divas can indeed compete for any title. But they must first win the Women's Title and then one other.

One big problem that I see is that you run the risk of ending up with at least one ability you don't want and not being able to get rid of it. Move Theft seems especially hard to avoid getting, as I don't see how you're only supposed to play through 19 matches in Career Mode unless you're chasing the Women's Title.

The "Sit in the Corner" award you have to earn in order to get the Hammer Throw is actually one of several in-game awards (not Achievements or Trophies) you can get in Career Mode. Just don't ask me what you're supposed to do to get it. Maybe someone here who has the game can help us out with that.

As for the others, some of them like Object and Fan Favorite look obscenely easy to get; others, not so much. (5-starring every fracking match to get K.O.?!??!) For me, the kicker is that I don't know how to go about having a 5-star match. It seems to be set up like the Day of Reckoning games in that long matches with lots of back and forth action and in which you take a lot of damage get you more money and XP. Again, someone who has the game will probably have to set me straight.

to get sit in corner you have to irish wip opponent to corner 10 times

Sorry for the massive bump, but it seems that the second patch has ****ed up how you get the Outside Dives ability.
Last night I must've leaped from the turnbuckles 50 times and never got it. Got other abilites fine tho.

Strange to say the least.

Second patch? I thought the only patch was the CAW patch for the PS3.
