Training (Brandon Payne)

[revan]

Pryce walks down the street looking at the piece of paper BP gave him. it wasn't that it was badly written. ts just Pryce had and always will have a nack for getting lost when whatever he is looking for is in plain sight of him. Pryce pulls over a man nicely ans asks where the Gym is. the man looks at Pryce and laughs, he points to the building behind him and Pryce nods his head. the man walks on Pryce goes completely red in the face. what an embarrassment eh. he walks up to the door and opens it. he walks in and the cool air hits him in the face. oooohhhh that was nice, Pryce goes to the counter and purchases a card, it looks like Pryce would see a lot of this gym. he then turns around and awaits for BP to arrive.

[Μyster Controversy™]

Payne, already waiting inside the training facility for Pryce. See's that the young man has finally arrived. He walks up to Christian to greet him:

Ah, I see that you made it. Welcome to the "House of Payne" Christian.

Payne extends his hand out to Pryce:

I was beginning to wonder if you was even going to show up. Thought maybe you had chickened out at first.

Did you have much trouble finding the facility ? I know my directions aren't always the greatest sometimes (laughs).

[revan]

no no it was fine

Pryce was lying through his teeth. House of Payne. it sounded kinda scary. Pryce was kind nervous, but then remembered that he was a professional wrestler. and he can take the pain, hopefully. Pryce then shakes BP's hand and smiles.

so where do i start?

[Μyster Controversy™]

Ah, I see. You seem a little nervous kid. Relax ! There's nothing to be nervous about. I brought you here to help improve your skills. Both in the ring and on the microphone. It takes two to tango as they say. You can't have one without the other in this business.

Brandon thinks to himself as both men walk down the long corridor:

Hmph, the boy is lying through his teeth. I just hope he's better at wrestling then telling the truth.

Brandon opens the double doors at the end of the hallway.



This is it, the House of Payne ! Not the most fanciest of places, but it gets the job done. Everything Pryce would need to succeed is right here in this room. Various exercise/training equipment and of course the ring itself.

So Pryce, what do you think ? Not too shabby eh ?

Everything you see here is what I used to train myself to get into the business. So if it worked for me. This can work for anybody. Just don't expect me to go easy on you. From this point forward. As long as we within' the confines of this training group. You refer to me as MR. Payne... is that understood young soldier ?

My mission is to turn you into well oiled, fighting machine. You've got a lot going for you Pryce. And today, I'm going to unlock your hidden potential.

Now before we begin. I gotta no right now. Are you ready to go forward with the training ? I must warn you. This will not be a cake walk. Your basically in the army kid with me.

I'm only going to charge you one fee. Don't worry, its not about the money. All I want to see you do is apply everything that you've learned from me here this afternoon during your work in XWA.

I would hate to see my teaching with you to go to waste.

[revan]

Pryce nods his head. he knows it will be tough. but he also knows that if anybody could make him a star. BP or Mr Payne would be the best man to do it.

i am ready to do this. i will work my ass off to do well. and i will do whatever it takes. how much?

Pryce remembers seeing a cash machine outside the building. and with the wages he had accumulated recently through wrestling he should have the money, he hoped. Pryce felt less nervous knowing that he was in good hands.

[Μyster Controversy™]

Consider this little bit of training your about to endure today on the house. As far as the money situation goes afterwards. I'm sure we can both work something out. Don't worry about it. You have other more important things to worry about. Like your training.

Since you appear to be ready. Lets get started shall we ?

From this point forward. I'm referring to you as Cadet Pryce. You can just call me Mr. Payne. Remember, I don't want any kind of foolish from you. This is no laughing matter or a joke. I'm doing this because I have faith in your abilities.

Lets begin with a little weight training. I'm going to expand that puny upper body of yours into nothing but muscle.

Brandon walks over to the weight lifting area and motions for Pryce to follow him:

Alright kid, first off. How much weight do you normally press ?

After we finish messing around with some of the normal, everday exercises. Then will get into the ring and do a few things.

[revan]

Press? Pryce had no idea how much he could press. though he guessed since he could lift a 250lb man that he could bench press 100.

i think i can press 100.

Pryce tries it and struggles for a moment. but after a few reps he gets the hang of it. he goes onto do ten more.

hows that Mr Payne?

[Μyster Controversy™]

Not bad Cadet Pryce... but remember, this is my way of training you. Not your sissy way. I see you can lift 100. Alright, lets see if you can lift double that amount.

Brandon adds more weight.

There ya go. 200. Lets see you do 10 reps with that. Remember, I did warn you that this wasn't going to be any kind of picnic. This is training is going to be brutal.

Thinks to himself:

Course, I hope he can last through the day. So much for me to teach this young man. Hope he doesn't act like a pussy and bail.

[revan]

Pryce gives it a go. he tries first time. it was a lot heavier. but Pryce had remembered that this was a cruiserweight. he tried it again and did 10 reps as Mr Payne said. Pryce started to feel the burn, this was good. Pryce knew it was going to be hard. but he would never quit. it wasn't his style.

so whats next.

[Μyster Controversy™]

Heh... you did better then I expected. Maybe there is some hope left for ya kid. Lets see... how about we try a little cardio work ? Follow me:

Brandon motions for Pryce to follow him over to the treadmill nearby.

Alright Cadet Pryce. Lets see you do some jogging on here. Jog for about 45 mins. Then will move onto the bicycle.

From there, we'll move on to the punching bag area. Then finally, to the ring for some real training.

Sound cool with you ?

[revan]

yeah sounds good.

*training Montage of Pryce running* Pryce trains for 45 mins on the treadmill. he feels very tired. Pryce was never that good at Cardio. but he was still there he didnt quit. he was still fighting.

phew shall we move on to the bikes

[Μyster Controversy™]

Of course... after the bikes. I'll let you take a five minute break to cool off. Because once we get in the ring. Your going to need it.

Brandon shows Pryce where the bicycle is at and gives him instructions:

Okay. Use the bicycle for approximately one hour. Were going to build up those leg muscles of yours as well. Even a cruiserweight of your size needs to stay in tip-top condition.

[revan]

Pryce took his break. Cruiserweight? Pryce wasn't a cruiserweight. he wasn't actually eligible for the X-Gen title. Was Mr Payne training him up to be a cruiserwieght. Pryce thought to himself for a moment. he then went on to the bikes to work on his leg muscles. he did an hour and by this point he was knackered, but still determined.

i think i am ready to get in the ring.

Pryce now had to get his strength up. who knew what he would have to do in the ring.

[Μyster Controversy™]

Sounds great. Your doing much better then what I had anticipated. Then again, everything we have done up to this point is just kiddie games compared to what you are about to experience in the ring.

All the training I've put you through is normal, everyday stuff that every wrestler in each weight class has to endure. I basically do what the 'normal athletes' do an double it.

So, since you seem you are ready. Lets climb into the ring shall we ?

Brandon walks over to the ring and enters it. Waiting for Pryce to follow him. The next challenge Pryce wasn't going to be a physical one. But more, of a verbal challenge.

[revan]

Pryce took a deep breath. he climbed into the ring. he felt he was now prepared for anything.

ok so what are we going to work on first eh. Powerslams? DDt's? i feel Physically ready for anything.
