edenborn Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Owner Goals are decent for players who like the challenge. For my taste, they're too static. I would like the optional additional challenge of having to book shows for a mercurial owner who is regularly posing problems. "The Pain Alliance need a big win on tonight's show. Have them dominate another team." "You know what I haven't seen in a while? A handicap match. Book a 2-on-1 for tonight's show." "Bear Bekowski was rude to me backstage. You can have him on tonight's show but then I want him off all SWF TV for the next two months." "Something in my gut tells me the fans don't want Rocky Golden as champ anymore. Get the title off him by the end of the month." Etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xendarii Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Great idea for everyone who always wanted to know how awful it feels like to be a WWE booker! Should also include being fired after a few months due to bad booking decisions even though all of them were done by the owner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nickman Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 As always your suggestions are brilliant, edenborn. I’d love all of these things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could even make how "hands on" the owner will be something that's negotiated when applying for the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
