Corporate Attraction

Chapters 1-Two Conniving minds

In any walk of life things always change. Sometimes they change for the better and sometimes they change for the worse. A lot of the time changes in the world are to do with people and the type of change that happens depend on the sort of person that has the impact.

In the global phenomenon that was the WWE it was no different. There was a revolving door of superstars and divas. Some made a huge impact on everyone connected with the WWE whilst others came and went with people barely noticing. It was every performer's goal to leave a lasting impression, to leave a legacy that would stand the test of time. However not every lasting impression is a good one. Some impressions people would rather forget but struggle to remove it from their minds.

There was a WWE diva that had been on both sides of that coin. The beautifully stunning Eve Torres had embraced the WWE fans when she won the WWE diva search in 2007. She spent the first years of her careers becoming popular with the fans and making many friends in the WWE and outside of it. When she won her first Divas championship everyone was happy for her as she continued to capture the hearts of the WWE universe but then something changed. In the early months of 2012 she stopped thinking about the fans. She stopped thinking about those people close to her who once open a time had meant so much. All she started to care about was Eve Torres. She played with the mind and heart of the popular young superstar Zack Ryder. She even tried to use her assets and female charm to get the face of the WWE John Cena to fall for her. She was the executive assistant for one of the most hated general managers of all time John Laurinitus and her quest for power had taken her to be the assistant to the general manager of smackdown. The six time world champion Booker T.

She was disliked by almost the entire WWE universe. Many fans chanted Hoeski every time she walked into the arena and the ones that weren't chanting were booing. A lot of the superstars and divas blanked her when she walked in the back. The common consensus was that she was nothing more than a selfish bitch who was not to be trusted. Eve didn't care, if people didn't like her then that was up to them.

She wasn't there to please people, she wasn't there to make friends, she was there to further her career and put herself in the spotlight, and she didn't care what she had to do to get there.

…..

The gorgeous brunette vixen never failed to get a reaction as she walked into a building. Some of this was because of her obvious beauty but as the saying goes, sometimes beauty is only skin deep.

Eve opened the door of the arena and looked at the area that was immediately in front of her. A couple of the backstage women rolled their eyes and turned away. The guys reactions were quite mixed some reacted in the same way as the girls while others couldn't help but stare at Eve, looking her up and down, although most of the time guys eyes normally stopped three quarters of the way up her body.

She let out a devious smile and spoke in a disgusted voice "Excuse me my eyes are up here."

The devious assistant tried to put on an act that she wasn't impressed but secretly she knew exactly what she was doing. Her luscious brunette hair would be tied back. Her glasses would rest on the top of her nose so men had just enough of her eyes to gaze into. She would wear tight white blouses that give the professional yet sexy look. Eve would make sure there were a little of her stomach and enough of her female assets to have men falling at her feet. She would wear a jet black skirt long enough to keep her business attire smart but short enough that men would struggle to resist her. And of course she would wear black high heels to complete her business look. She wanted everyone to turn and look when she entered a room.

Eve was all about playing games. She was all about seduction and manipulation. The alluring vixen knew every trick in the book to get her everything that she wanted.

But what she wanted the most was to be the general manager.

..

The stunning Eve strutted down the corridor with her hand on her right hip. She blanked anyone who gave her a reaction but acknowledged in her head the reactions she wanted. Some of them just gave her a satisfaction.

She approached the office of Smackdown General Manager Booker T. He and Eve had never seen eye to eye since the John Laurinitus regime. He didn't trust Eve and much less didn't want her as his assistant. His first choice was the blonde haired NXT diva Katelyn but Eve had beaten her in a match and the respected veteran was a man of his word.

Eve lifted her hand to knock on the door before she heard the sound of former General Manager Teddy Long. The conniving diva rolled her eyes before knocking professionally on the door.

She heard the sound of Booker's voice shout "Come in"

The former divas champion straightened up her blouse and skirt before entering the room.

Teddy Long was not happy when he saw Eve walk into the room. In his mind she had cost him his dream job of being the General Manager and on the grandest stage of all Wrestlemania.

Eve ignored the fact that Long was stood there and walked straight up to Booker T.

Her voice turned to a business like tone as she said "Good evening Sir how are you today?"

The six time world champion started to laugh as he said "Don't call me Sir Eve I would rather be called Booker."

Eve looked straight at him smiling and replied "I'm sorry but I would like to keep things on a formal basis so if possible could I just call you sir or Mr. T."

Booker let out a massive laugh as he joked "I pity the fool who crosses the General Manager." He laughed and composed himself before replying "Then Sir is fine. What can I do for you Eve?"

She let out another devious grin and touched her glasses so they fell down her face just a touch. She handed Booker a folder and started to speak.

"With the growing interest and competition in the tag team division I have put together a portfolio outlining the win/loss records of all the teams involved and the pros and cons of them becoming the no 1 contenders for the tag team titles. I have also put together your schedule of your duties and meetings for the week and made a start on the plans for next week's show. I think with a job as demanding and as time consuming as yours then it is always best to make a start early."

The General Manager had a shocked but impressed look across his face. He looked at Eve and said "You did all this tonight?"

The beautiful assistant let out and icy cold smile and answered "I take my job as your assistant very seriously. It is my duty and desire to perform all my tasks to the best of my ability and to make your job as the General Manager as flowing and as trouble free as possible."

Booker T was left almost speechless at the amount of work and commitment that Eve had showed. Maybe he had misjudged the sort of person that she was.

He spoke to her again "I am very impressed Eve. Keep up the good work" He laughed again and walked off leaving Eve and Teddy Long standing there.

Teddy Long has disgust and contempt for Eve but everything bad he felt about her was mutual. Eve Torres disliked him just as much as he disliked her.

She started to walk away and purposely walked into the shoulder of Teddy Long.

Her stunningly evil voice said "I'm sorry Teddy. I didn't even realize you were here."

She placed her left hand on her hip and strutted out of the door leaving Teddy Long embarrassed and dejected.

…..

For one of the WWE superstars things were not as easy and as clear cut. The young and extremely talented Cody Rhodes had ever gift a man could be given, a second generation superstar that had been born into one of the most popular wrestling families in history. Cody had the look of a superstar; he was technically sound and crisp in the ring. In his opinion he and he alone had brought prestige and honor back to the Intercontinental championship.

But it was when he lost that very championship to Christian at the over the limit PPV that his career started to falter. He failed to regain what he felt was his championship. He didn't win the money in the bank ladder match that he felt was his God given right to win. He found himself becoming obsessed with removing the mask of the Mexican high flyer Sin Cara. That's not who Cody wanted to be. He wanted more than that. He felt he deserved more than that, and the fact that championships and opportunities weren't falling at his feet was making him sick.

"Here is your winner, Sin Cara."

The angry and irate Rhodes rolled out of the ring after being rolled up and pinned by Sin Cara again. Sin Cara had become one of those superstars that ever performer has. Every superstar has that one guy that they can't beat and for Cody Rhodes that guy was Sin Cara.

Cody punched the ring apron. He walked towards the announce table and aggressively kicked the steel steps. The frustrated and annoyed Rhodes started to pull apart the announce table much to the annoyance of the loud mouthed Michael Cole.

He shouted out to the crowd as he threw the top of the table towards the ring "I'm sick of this. This is a joke. I'm better than this."

The so called voice of the WWE Michael Cole shouted "Calm down Cody."

The angry Cody kicked the other steel stairs towards the barricade. He stormed off up the ramp.

The Wwe universe wasn't sympathetic in the slightest. They chanted the goodbye song as he stormed up the ramp looking like a small child having a tantrum.

Rhodes got through the curtain and stomped down the stairs to the backstage area. He kicked over two large bottles of water as he headed down a backstage corridor to the locker room.

The irate Cody stopped still as he was confronted by General Manager Booker T.

The former King of the Ring shouted "What the hell are you doing Sucka?"

Rhodes snapped "I am sick of this Booker. I shouldn't have to face nobodies like Sin Cara. I should be fighting for championships. I should be a part of the main event not wasting my time. I deserve respect DAMN IT."

The General Manager did not look impressed at the outburst of the young superstar. He walked closer to Cody and looked him straight in the eyes.

Booker T assertively spoke "I thought the son of the American dream would know you get respect in this business is you earn it."

Cody punched the wall with the side of his fist and shouted "I'M NOT MY FATHER. I am nothing like him and I don't want to be anything like him. Why can't people get that into their skulls?"

The six time world champion glared at Cody before saying "You haven't done anywhere near enough to impress me or anyone else. Until that happens you won't earn anyone's respect. In my opinion you are nowhere near as good as you think you are."

With that Booker T brushed past Cody leaving him angrier than he already was.

Rhodes hit the wall again before continuing to storm down the corridor. Suddenly the young second generation superstar was stopped in his tracks.

He tried to slow down his breathing as he looked at the smart and sexy looking Eve Torres stood in front of him. She was holding a clipboard and tapping her pen on the corner of her glasses.

Rhodes couldn't help but look the seductive looking assistant up and down.

The stunning Eve Torres could see where Cody's eyes had stopped. She stopped tapping her pen and gave him a small smile. She lowered her voice and said "Mr. Rhodes you listen with your ears not your eyes."

Rhodes gave her a sarcastic smile and said "What do you want Eve?"

Eve put her hands on her hips and said "That's no way to talk to a lady Cody, especially one that thinks she can help you."

The now more composed Cody replied "What do you mean?"

There was a satisfied look on the face of Eve as she could see that Cody's attention was all on her, just how she liked men's attention to be.

She moved the hair piece slightly before replying "What Booker T said is wrong. You have impressed me and as the assistant to the General Manager I can be an influence. I am going to suggest that you are given a chance to prove yourself next week on Smackdown when you face the World Heavyweight Champion Sheamus."

Eve placed her hands on her hips and started to strut away from the speechless Cody Rhodes. She turned sideways back towards him and seductively said "Thank you are the words you are looking for."

Cody's eyes were fixed on Eve as she walked away and around the corner. The smile re appeared on Cody's face as she went out of sight.

The wheels started to turn and the evil mind of Cody Rhodes. He looked back and forth as he was thinking before he said to himself….

"I think that could work perfectly."
