OOC: WWE Roleplay

[Sean Renaud]

questions. 1. Are we running this thing like the fights are supposed to be real and we'll rp them and figure them out amongst ourselves (or via some system perhaps secret voting about which post we feel was the better post, sent to whoever is booking the matches and he'll in turn tell the winners or whatever. Or are we doing it where it's fake and Vince knows who's winning as that seemed to be the impression I got from reading the IC thread.

2. Who are our champions? Are sticking with what's on TV right now? Which would make me champ as Cena or are we going to figure out some other system for this to work?

 

[SparxXx]

Yeah I was wondering how we'll win or lose matches. It kind of makes it confusing...

And about whos champ...we'll do it by how it is on reality television, so I guess sean you are the champ

 

[Sean Renaud]

We can probably handle it maturely between ourselves but we should probably discuss how we intend to actually handle the wins in the matches.

 

[SparxXx]

I guess we could play it out maturely where we can choose to win or lose and make it believable. One wrestler does a move such as the FU and the opponent will decide the end result by which he/she counters or lets the FU knock him/her out resulting in a pinfall...i don't know but that is an idea

 

[I_Am_Lust]

I think I might join.

 

[SparxXx]

i AM lust sure you can join ...what character would you like to be?

 

[Sean Renaud]

Are we running this as real fights or not?! If they are supposed to be running this like a real fight then we shouldn't be talking about having Randy Orton win the Rumble, and we should all be friends cus we're you know actors.

I was thinking either Lita or Lillian Garcia. I know neither are wrestlers, well not Lita anymore but both ladies are pretty awesome.

I could win the Rumble!

Choose a character and join in. Lita or Lillian are fine, they dont need to be wrestlers nor present right now in the WWE

 

[jeremiah1982]

Real Name: Jason Jones
Ring Name: Jeremiah
Age: 24
Height: 6/4"
Weight: 240lbs
Appearance: Long black hair, blue eyes, well tones body, his in ring persona wears blackpants and black boots and a black tank top.

'Jeremiah' made his WWE debut only 4 months ago but already he is making a big name for himself and is becoming extremely popular with the marks in the audience, his in character persona is an extremely violent one, unstable and with a very short fuse, he was designed as a heel but has become popular regardless, it would appear that its the attitude of the character that gets them hooked, needless to say the character has remained as is and is expected to be given a push at any time.. Back stage when the camera's are off he is also well liked, always polite and charming, in truth he keeps to himself a lot but he is very respectful for those that have paid their dues.

[Sean Renaud]

I'm out until you guys can figure out what is going on in this RP as to if it is "real" or actors.

We are confused and that isn't fun for me.

Treating as actors: Donalddeucth, Jabels

Treating as real: me, trombonus

I don't want to RP John Cena, acting as John Cena the wrestler, that to me is boring and that is the direction that the thread starter is taking it in so I won't try to convince you to do it my way, it's not my rp. Have fun all.

 

[SparxXx]

hey hey sean I'm pretty much confused as you are

I don't really know how to make this fun so please give me suggestions. I dont really understand what you mean by real and actors. Are we suppose to force matches to be won by a certain character or something?

 

[lost_pirate]

I think Sean's point is that we should not have things look like made up and predetermined. the idea should be more to play it out like what you would see on the tv. we all know its all fake, but lets try to act out the fights and behind the stage scenes as the public sees it, rather than acting things out as a normal day would go on really inside wwe.

is that kind of what you are getting at sean? i have tried to keep it noncommital as of now as i am not quite clear on what path to take, but would prefer the one sean is suggesting. hope that will be fin enough for all.

 

[SparxXx]

that is the path i''m taking...the same way it is on tv. GMs usually hate cena and such. GMs love vince and the undertaker

 

[And 1]

I'll go with however people want to run it as long as we all know whats happening.

 

[SparxXx]

seems like donald is pre-determining the outcome of matches showing that it is NOT ON TV and more of a real life environment. I think we are all getting mixed up. Sorry for not organizing this from the beginning.

 

[lost_pirate]

well same here. i would prefer to play as it would be on tv, but if everyone likes it as a behind the scenes thing, i am okay there too. lets just sort it out. i will hold off on any posts in IC till then. what do you all say?

donald, would you be okay to playng it as on TV? might mean you may have to edit some of your posts back there.

 

[And 1]

I'll wait off from posting from my last one too for a bit.I may be out to a bit this evening here where I am so if anything majorly changes please send me a PM.

 

[Donalddeutsch]

I don't know how you want to play it, but if you want to just have fun with it, go for it. I will just play Vince as a behind the scenes thing, and let our comissioner take care of the matches from now on.

I'm not sure if there is any objectivity in what I'm about to say, but if you read the posts from the top it seems like everyone is on the same frequency (to play the characters as they are seen on TV), perhaps for the exception of Jabels' first post - which I thought he just about rectified by his second post.

But it is a good idea to clear things up once and for all. Perhaps Sean's reaction stems from the fact that he's already RP-ing John Cena the wrestler.

A massage from Trish ought to keep you happy.

 

[Sean Renaud]

That's the thing, we all seem to be on one page the RP is kinda all over the place. Whoever Vince is talking about who is going to win the Rumble and go on to face Cena at WM. We have him planning out who will get what belts, who will hang out with whom and even using insider terms like face and hell. Taker is saying how his charachter is intimidating but he's a normal guy. He's also talking about how when the cameras are off Cena should act differently. He then slips into charachter and talks about making him famous. Or how he wants to beat up Cena.

If we are going to be treating this as if we are actual athletes (as see on tv) with actual grudges and stuff then we need to do like they do (sometimes rediculously so such as any scene that takes place outside the Arena) and pretend that there are no cameras and people are always in charachter.

Or we need to play this out as a bunch of actors on a drama, which might be fun but not for me.

Also we need to set a date. Are we heading into Wrestlemania or the Royal Rumble? I was kinda warning and asking about this stuff at the very begining. It is a complete must that we all be on the same page, atleast to start this thing off.
