# Managers

It’s good to have someone in your corner.

Managers are optional and aren't needed to run a [Show](/wrestling-organization-online/wrestling-organization-online/gameplay/shows/winning-shows.md), but Managers are crucial for a player's success. Only one Manager can be used in one [Match](/wrestling-organization-online/wrestling-organization-online/gameplay/shows/match-types.md) per [Show](/wrestling-organization-online/wrestling-organization-online/gameplay/shows/winning-shows.md), and the Managers come with various benefits.

Managers are unlike [Wrestlers](/wrestling-organization-online/wrestling-organization-online/gameplay/wrestler-attributes.md) in many ways and we would like to focus on Manager **Passive** and **Active** abilities. Managers who have **Passive** abilities will always give their buff/debuff to the [Wrestler](/wrestling-organization-online/wrestling-organization-online/gameplay/wrestler-attributes.md) they are managing or their opponents without the worry of being ejected from ringside.

Managers with **Active** abilities will get involved in the [Matches](/wrestling-organization-online/wrestling-organization-online/gameplay/shows/match-types.md) and will risk being ejected from ringside. If a Manager is ejected from ringside then all buffs/debuffs they gave will be removed.

You will notice that some managers get a **x2** on their abilities. This means the Manager can activate the ability 2 times before being ejected.

Below are the basic abilities of current Managers. Keep in mind that like [Wrestlers](/wrestling-organization-online/wrestling-organization-online/gameplay/wrestler-attributes.md), Managers get stronger at higher levels.
