WWE SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth is a 2002 professional wrestling game for PlayStation 2, developed by Yuke’s and published by THQ. Released on October 31, 2002 (North America release date), it marked the series’ first entry under the WWE banner . Building on its predecessors, it features an expansive roster of around 60 superstars—including early video game appearances by Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton, and Hollywood Hulk Hogan—and introduces the WWE Brand Extension with Raw and SmackDown rosters.

The game received critical acclaim, scoring an 82 on Metacritic, and was celebrated for its deep Season Mode, now spanning two in-game years and enriched with draft events, backstage storylines, and brand rivalries. It also boasts a revamped Create‑A‑Superstar mode with detailed morphing and animation options, and a variety of match types—from Ladder and Hell in a Cell to Royal Rumble and Slobber Knocker.
