Showdown: Legends of Wrestling is the third installment of the Legends of Wrestling video game series developed by Acclaim Entertainment for the Xbox and PlayStation 2. A version of the game for the Nintendo Gamecube was also planned but was canceled. The theme music in the last two games was composed by "The Mouth of The South" Jimmy Hart. Hart appears as a manager in all three games. He also composed some of the theme music for WCW and World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

Showdown: Legends of Wrestling was greeted with much derision from critics upon its release. Consumer reaction was negative too, though not
excessively so, primarily tempered by the stellar roster available in the game. The inclusion of former WCW commentary team of Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, Tony Schiavone, and "The Living Legend" Larry Zbyszko was welcomed, though the commentary system turned out to be unsophisticated and repetitive. It has undoubtedly the best roster of popular 70s, 80s, and 90s pro-wrestlers, including many 'legends' which didn't appear in the first two games.
