The first part of WWE 2K15's Showcase mode DLC series released today, and in it we see the first story-heavy content describing the rivalry between WWE Superstars Christian and Randy Orton.
The DLC, entitled One More Match, takes a look at the classic rivalry from 2011 as your get to experience the sport through the eyes of Christian on his journey to regain the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. In addition, new characters were added to the game through this DLC, including Edge, Mark Henry, and Sheamus.
Christian's story takes you back to that 2011 match against Orton, as well as other matches featuring Christian in SmackDown, Over the Limit, Capitol Punishment, Money in the Bank, and SummerSlam.
Christian (real name Jay Reso) started out as a Canadian wrestler named Christian Cage, a combination of his favorite actors at the time, Christian Slater and Nicolas Cage. When he joined the World Wrestling Federatiion in 1998, he was referred by his childhood friend Adam Copeland, who is known as Edge in the WWE.
The rivalry between Christian and Orton went on for several years when Christian couldn't regain his 2011 world championship from Orton. The two often had small spats outside of the ring, culminating in a steel cage match later that year in which Christian lost.
