Rivalry Storylines
Concept Summary
A multi-stage storyline that includes at least 2 workers. Phase 1: "The Work"
The player can access rivalries within the storylines menu. From here,you can select a rivalry from a wide variety of unlocked storylines. Storylines can be unlocked by either making a one-off payment to an external writer or hiring a writing team who will regularly produce storylines to your selection. Once selected, the player will choose who will participate in the rivalry. This will usually require one participate to have more of a "Face" disposition, whilst the other has more of a "Heel" disposition. Whilst this is the case in most storylines, some can involve two workers with the same disposition, or will allow "neutral" workers on either side.
Once selected, the player will see the requirements to kick off the rivalry, otherwise known as "The Work". This may be a specific match, segment or event requirement in order to trigger the rivalry. These can include the following examples;
- A Singles match between Worker A and Worker B.
- A Singles match between Worker A and Worker B that includes a High Risk spot.
- A Tag Team match including Worker A and Worker B against two wrestlers.
- A Call Out segment including Worker A and Worker B.
- A Post Match segment including Worker B.
- Host an event in Worker A's hometown.
Once the requirements have been met for the work, this will trigger a specific rivalry segment for the event. This segment will increase general event value and depending on the skill of each participant included in the work, worker hype will usually increase.
At this point, we introduce the "Heat" rating. This is a rating out of 100 which is used to translate the intensity of a rivalry. Once a rivalry has been started, the player must work on this rivalry in order to increase it's heat enough as a requirement to progress to the next phase. This can be done by putting the participants in matches against each other, or including them in segments. Sometimes, participants can naturally grow extra heat over social media, but it's not recommended to rely purely on this. If the rivalry isn't being worked at any stage, it will slowly lose heat and eventually will start declining. Once a rivalry starts declining, it's pretty difficult to get it growing again. If a rivalry declines low enough, the rivalry will fizzle out and end, and the promotion will suffer for not seeing the rivalry through.
Phase 2: "Boiling Point"
Once a rivalry has hit the required heat level, another set of requirements will be given to the player to progress the storyline to the next phase. Doing this will trigger another rivalry specific segment and will unlock exclusive rivalry-based promotional material meant to give the rivalry that extra attention. The aim of phase 2 is to build up the heat of the rivalry to the highest it can be in one month before it's final stage. This can be done through matches, segments, or the exclusive promotinal material such as television promo packages.
Phase 3: "The Final Curtain"
After a phase 2 rivalry has been active for a month, it's heat will naturally start to decrease, and the Rivalry Match will become available. This is used as an ending to the rivalry, where all the hard work pays off. Each rivalry match will have specific bonuses based on the storyline, and some of these may be hidden.
Pit the competitors in a final match, and select the "Rivalry Match" option in the match notes.
Completing a rivalry will usually result in a large bonus in revenue, fans and promotion value.
