Week One: 3 Weeks Left Until The Royal Rumble
Week One: 3 Weeks Left Until The Royal Rumble
~On behalf of myself and my family, thank you for filling in as Raw's General Manager for the time being. I know this role is considered cursed to some, but that's only because your predecessors didn't have the balls to make the tough decisions. I trust you to do as I would. Don't let me down. And please, don't forget that you have the last word when it comes to telling the superstars what to do. Last thing I like is a pushover. Again, thank you for stepping up to the plate. I'm counting on you.~
Vince McMahon ended his call to you the moment you walk into your new office. It's a small office space but it has a leather couch, a mahogany desk, previous PPV posters adorning the walls, and photos of your family already set. As you step in, you notice that your chair is facing you with it's back turned. Suspicion kicks in as you feel you're not alone in the room. When they speak up, their voice is all too familiar.
Randy Orton: So you're the new General Manager...
"The Viper" swivels around to face you. He sports his newest shirt, which according to sales is the hottest merchandise to come out of the company for this month. Judging by how he addresses you and the fact that he's in your fucking chair, an educated guess tells you he's here to negotiate with you, so you ask him what he wants.
Randy Orton: Simple stuff, really. All I want is to be booked in a match against Brock Lesnar tonight. And of course his WWE World Heavyweight Championship would be on the line. I'm your bread and butter right now, and if you help me I will help you. You're a new guy and may not be very experienced with dealing with the other guys in the back. If you give me the match, I can offer sage advice and protection from those looking to bully you. What do you say?
On one hand, he is the biggest moneymaker you have right now. Offering him that match tonight could draw in huge ratings AND you'll have him in your back pocket. But on the other hand he is using you in a way Mr. McMahon would not approve. That and he's in your chair. A chair you've worked hard for and haven't even sat in yet. Which option will it be?
If you want to tell him to fuck off, Choose A
If you want to accept his conditions, Choose B
Option A
You: I don't take orders from you. Kindly get out of my chair and I'll consider your proposal in the future.
If looks could kill, "The Apex Predator" would have already buried you. Sneering, he leans over the desk and calmly addresses you.
Randy Orton: I think it would be in your best interest to reconsider. Everybody knows your position here won't last long if you don't play it safe. Nobody lasts long here. I offer you friendship and more money. Are you really going to be stupid and tell me no?
To reconsider, go back and choose Option B.
To be firmer in your resolve, choose Option C down below.

Option C
You: You heard me the first time. Get out of my office before I call Security.
Enraged, Orton knocks over your chair and stomps out of the room. He turns around and points a solemn finger right in your face.
Randy Orton: You shouldn't have done that. I could have given you the world. Money, women...but now you have a target on your back almost as big as Lesnar's! Watch yourself. You'll never know when this snake will strike...
He leaves you to ponder his last words. Finally you take your seat after picking it up from the ground. You don't get a moment's peace when there's a knock at your door. You tell them to enter and in comes America's sweetheart and lover of children and small animals, John Cena. His face is all shiny and shit as he smiles at you and you ask him what he wants.
John Cena: "The Champ Is Here", or at least, he could very well be when the Royal Rumble comes. I heard in the locker room you already said no to Randall, which was the wisest business decision I've seen in this place since Edge took a steel chair to a laptop. I respect that. But you know he's gunning for you now, son. It just so happens I have your back. There's two guys I'd love to see hash it out with "The Beast Incarnate" tonight, and either way I'll keep Orton at bay if you make it happen, captain.
First guy is me. I've been something of a gold standard in the company since before you took the reigns. Speaking of, the other guy I had in mind is Roman Reigns. Long as he leaves the mic alone, the ratings will go up, people will be happy, and you've got a friend in me. If you go with me, I really want it to be an "I Quit" Match, non-title of course. But Roman does deserve a title shot tonight.
Not two suggestions for Lesnar's opponent tonight, but three. You've already told Orton to take a hike, so which one do you prefer? John Cena can burn the house down with his bitter rival Brock, but an "I Quit" Match can put either one of your top stars on the shelf, and it's only a few weeks away until the Pay Per View! Then again, Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar may not lift the ratings by an incredible margin. A safer route to go still, and it would be for the championship. With only a few hours to go before the show is live, someone needs to be in your Main Event. What do you tell John?
If you want John Cena to face Brock Lesnar in an "I Quit" Match, take Option D
If you want Roman Reigns to face Brock Lesnar for the title, take Option E
Option D
Option E

You: I want him to face you, Mr. Cena. It'll get people interested for sure. That and I'm not sure a title match would be the best idea when we're only weeks away from our Pay Per View. Leave that to the WWE Network buyers, eh?
He chuckles, and nods.
John Cena: Alright, boss. I appreciate you having faith in me to make this a night the fans will remember. Reigns is a young guy, too. He'll get his chance I'm sure in the future.
Cena gives you that weird Marine salute he likes doing and leaves. Finally you are left alone to your devices. You realize there's a red flashing light coming from the old office phone lying on your desk. Before Randy Orton left, he must have touched it in his fit of anger - throwing the chair down like he did. Curiosity gets the best of you and you click the button next to it and the flickering stops. An audio plays from the time Randy Orton threatened you to the moment John Cena left your office.
A devil on your shoulder tells you there is a way you can keep both John Cena and Brock Lesnar in perfect fighting condition for the Royal Rumble. Several times, "The Champ" said the phrase "I Quit". If you ran this machine over to Technical Support, your position as GM could no longer be in jeopardy from Orton's menacing glare. He of all people would appreciate a double cross if it's Cena who gets trolled. But then again John Cena will want retaliation. Decisions, decisions.
If screwing over Cena is the strategy to take, choose Option F
If deleting the audio file is a wiser move, choose Option G

You go ahead and take the machine over to Technical Support. You'll be damned if one of your bread winners gets fucked up before your first night on the job ends.
The Main Event is about to start, and everything is in place. You decide to sit in the skybox to watch your master plan come together nicely. Minutes tick by as John Cena keeps Brock Lesnar down on the ground. Your Technical staff keeps their eyes on you, waiting for you to give the signal to play Cena's recorded voice. When it appears Lesnar gains momentum, Randy Orton breaks down the door.
Randy Orton: I SAID I'D BE BACK!!!
Without Cena as a shield, he jerks you up from your chair and pins you to the wall.
Randy Orton: YOU GIVE THAT BASTARD THE MAIN EVENT BUT NOT ME??!? YOU'RE DEAD!!!
Quick! Either explain to him what is going on or give your staff the signal.
To tell him how you're screwing John Cena over, pick Option H
To get your staff to play the recording, pick Option I

You: Y-you don't understand! I'm screwing over-
"The Viper" lashes out with a right hand straight into your gut, rendering you speechless. Your knees buckles underneath you and you clutch your stomach in writhing agony. Suddenly Randy Orton leaves and you feel a slight since of relieve and you try standing back up. This is all in vain as Orton Punts your head straight the hell in. Now you are unconscious. EMTs are on their way to carry you out of the skybox and out of the WWE.
Least you can say he didn't kill you, right? Could always be much worse. You tried the daring approach to managing superstars, but in the end Orton caught up with you and took you out. Coulda been worse. Coulda been an RKO. At least Mr. McMahon won't have your balls for being a pushover. You came to play the game. This wasn't the right decision, though.
Thanks for playing!

Option I
You wave frantically, and they saw you.
John Cena: I QUIT!!!
As if by magic, Randy Orton let you go and turned his attention down below at where Cena was. Lesnar had him in a headlock of sorts and shoved him away as the bell rang. John Cena looked around, confused as all hell.
Randy Orton: He quit? He never quits...wait...
"The Legend Killer" looks back at you as you pick yourself off of the ground. A mischievous smile spread over his face. Almost serpent-like.
Randy Orton: You recorded him saying that? I think I might have misjudged you. You wanted to make an impact and screw over the face of the company. I like that. Here I was thinking you had a death wish. Instead you are a power player. Well done. Of course, now he'll want to kill you, but better him than me, right?
At that moment, John Cena looked up at the skybox at you. His face gave it all away - he was furious and he will be coming after you.
It's not the most original thing to be, granted, and you now have possibly the most influential wrestler of the modern era wanting your impending demise, but you're alive and have Orton on your side. That, and you kept your top athletes in perfect shape for the Royal Rumble. You'll also be commended by Mr. McMahon for not being a pussy. So, not a bad way to end your first day on the job....right?
You have chosen 1/2 of the right paths to take. The next installment will either place you in your current position here, or in the other. Thank you for playing!

You don't want to make any more enemies here than you already have. Casually, you delete the recording and focus on more pressing matters - counting your cold hard cash for working with Vincent Kennedy McMahon! After successfully flipping through your stack of Benjamins, your phone rings. It's the Head Honcho himself. You answer politely.
Vince McMahon: Happen to be watching the show?
Flustered, you respond no.
Vince McMahon: I see. So you didn't catch our WWE World Champion breaking his arm or anything, did you?
You stutter in your excuses about trying to garner ratings.
Vince McMahon: Uh-huh. And when you decided to put on this match, were you thinking about how the ratings would look for Royal Rumble WITHOUT THE GODDAMN CHAMPION NUMBNUTS???!?
You apologize profusely, but he ain't having it.
Vince McMahon: Enough of this horseshit! You're Fired! Get out of that office and find somewhere else to screw up!! Jesus.
Daring, very daring. You may go down as the shortest reigning GM Raw ever had though. I mean, Mike Adamle lasted longer than you. Wow. And you messed up the Royal Rumble for everybody. But at least Randy Orton didn't kill you. And you succeeded in bringing up the ratings for one whole night. The future doesn't look too bright though. You walk away with your dignity at least. There's that.

Option E
You: Can't risk you or Brock getting injured this close to the Rumble. Surely you can understand. I want Roman Reigns to face him.
John Cena: I understand, bro. Hey no hard feelings. In your shoes I'd probably do the same.
Cena gives you a little salute from that one movie he bombed in and left. So now you know the Main Event will be Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar for the title. You thought before that it wouldn't bolster ticket sales, but now that you think about it a match between those two isn't really that bad an idea. And John Cena will keep Orton off your ass. You pat yourself on the back for keeping your top talent in a safe environment. Hell, you feel like celebrating. You call up a pizza delivery order and ask for a dozen specialty ones and have them delivered to your skybox.
When the Main Event arrives, so does the pizza. The delivery boy sheepishly hands over the 12 or so boxes of deliciousness and you make the money transaction. You give him a tip since you're in a generous mood. He gives you one back. A straight up RKO paid and delivered. It's Randy Orton doing his best Chuck Testa impression on your spazzing corpse.
B-but Cena had your back? He had all of our backs. But sometimes life isn't fair. Just when you think you have it all figured out WHAM. RKO. Out of nowhere. You kept the ratings in a pretty average spot. Weren't a pushover and you kept your talent in great shape for the Rumble. But that wily Randy Orton. Boy, he puts a damper on things.
