Nathan enters the XWA arena holding a rugged looking brown suitcase in one hand and directions in the other. He sets his suitcase down and looks around the place. Seemed empty, which was understandable seeing as he was a little early.
Er...Hello? Anyone around?
Nope. He shrugs and continues on down a long, narrow hallway. As he walked he passed the locker rooms of various superstars he recognized. Kayn... Scott O'Dell... Ethan Bain... Evan Fate... Bryan Jasta... At the end of the hall he sets his suitcase down on a bench and stands silently. He had no friends here, so he might as well wait and see if anyone will bring themselves to him, right?

Walking in crutches, "Wild Thing" James Bowen walked over to the young upstart.
James: Hey kid, are you new here?

Yeah, I'm Nathan Browne. I'm looking to start my professional wrestling career here in the XWA. I regonize you from TV. You're James Bowen, eh?
Shit. You're not supposed to say 'eh'. Sure, James seemed to be nice, but if there's one thing that will get you picked on by a cocky American its being Canadian and uttering 'eh'. Nathan eyes James..crutches and a wrapped up knee. No way he'd be a dick and attack him for being Canadian.

James: Yeah, nice to meet you; having a hard time making friends around here, huh?

However Nathan and James are soon interrupted by XWA's Fitness Guru, Emil Edwards, as usual Emil looks at both of them with scorn and sarcasm in his eyes.
Excuse me but this is a private zone, they don't allow flabby, out of shape, nerdy kids here... Oh wait, if you are here and you are carrying that briefcase it can only mean one thing, XWA hired another nameless loser, just like almost 90% of the roster is. Well I'll do the honours, I am Emil Edwards... Mr. Edwards to you, I can put that weak ass of yours in shape, although I must admit it will be a very hard labor but I love challenges.
Unless you want to be a no-name oinker like all the Diamond roster I suggest you start taking my product IMMEDIATELY.
Emil laughs arrogantly as he looks at James with crutches
What happens Rockstar? Did Van Whalen stepped on your foot? Get out of my path, I don't have any spare coins for you hobo.
Emil laughs again as he waits for an answer

James: I'm sorry, did you gain any weight? It looks like you're getting fatter, Emil.

Emil chuckles as he stares at James with a bigger scorn in his eyes
Very funny! But what about if I tell you a funnier joke? If you don't get out of my path now, I'll get off my segway, I'll kick your crutches you will fall on the floor and I'll beat the snot out of you? Do you want that to happen? Or you rather dragging your sorry fat ass out of my way NOW?
Emil this time looked serious with his threats

James: I'll get out of the way, because I don't want you to have a hard time going through the hallway here.
James moved out of the way.

Emil smiled as he continued to drive his segway
So you aren't as stupid as I thought, but well, still stupid. Take this hobo it will be the only healthy food of your life, and tell this kid next door that if he wants to jump in defense of you, I'll be more than glad to kick his ass and give him his first rude awakening in XWA. HA!
Emil takes out a (past expiration) protein bar and throws it at James, he then leaves the scene

James threw the bar away.
James: You see Nathan, you got to be aware of arrogant jerks like that guy. You got to beware that there are some assholes around, you just got to your eyes open.

Trust me, I know about the arrogant people. I did my research before I showed even a slight bit of interest. I know who to avoid. I also know that scene anyways. I'm sure anyone who finished high school knows about the jerks and the bullies. However, I have the edge on quite a few people. I know them. I've watched them fight since XWA started up. They, however, don't know me.
If Emil wants a piece then he'll come to me.

James: I like that kind of spirit in you. Anyway, when I'm not wrestling or playing gigs at some rock clubs, I have a wrestling dojo of my own, where I train some young upstarts, so if you want to freshen up your skills, you're free to come in.

*Just then Kayn was turning the corner to go to his locker room when he’s almost run over by a guy going down the hall on a segway. ’What the hell?’ Kayn thought to himself then shrugged it off and headed towards his locker room when he noticed James a new face.*
“James, how’s it going man? How’s the knee doing?”
*Kayn then walked over to the men and stood by them.*
“So who’s your new friend?”

James: Well Kayn, I'm awaiting surgery, and they say I'm out of action for 4-6 months; this here is Nathan Browne, he's new around here.
