Mr Mean meets the GM

GM Jason Brent is hard at work clearing out his mountain-high IN tray when there is a knock at the door.

Come in.

(Mr Mean opens the door)

Ah, you must be Mr Mean! We've been expecting you. (Shakes hands) Please take a seat.

Thanks.

So I guess the first thing I should say is ... Welcome to Hard Knocks Wrestling!! As you probably know already, we are part of the Wrestling Game International Federation and are into our 10th season. We were quite impressed with the sample RP you provided us in your application. Is this your first time in a roster?

Yeah it is. I competed in a wide range of team and individual sports throughout my school days, but my particular interest lay in martial arts and fighting. I actually got into wrestling through a close second uncle who is a certified professional trainer and let me in on the secrets of professional wrestling. After he took me to see a WWE show I was hooked. I asked him to be my first trainer and so he taught me the basic exercises and moves and have spent the last few years wrestling at his gym. After I received my contract, he was the first person I told, and he was over the moon for me.

That's great to hear. Your uncle has every right to be proud of you joining a roster such as ours. So, what do you hope to achieve during your time here?

Well, I was taking a look at some of the profiles of the other wrestlers, and I must say I do feel privileged to be in such amazing company. As a newcomer, I hope to win a few games, but as this is also my first time on a roster, I hope the other wrestlers, especially the senior ones, can make me feel welcome and that they can teach me how to talk the talk as well as walk the walk.

(chuckles) Oh you'll learn alright, no problems. We have plenty of bigmouths in our roster who I'm sure will be willing to teach you a few tricks or two. Well, I would take you on a tour around the Arena, but as you can see I'm a little busy with paperwork at the moment. But a few of the guys are around doing their stuff. It will be a good opportunity for you to meet and get to know some of them. Oh, before I forget, do you have any questions?

Just have two questions to ask. First, is there a tag team championship, and second, do we get to take on members from other rosters in the federation like ECW vs. RAW?

Yes, we do have a tag team championship available, but you're only a newcomer, so you'll have to wait a while to challenge for it, and unfortunately we can't take on the other rosters in the federation... yet. Who knows? The day may come, and that would be something ...

Cool, OK. Thanks.

Well, it was finally good to meet you in person, Mr Mean. On behalf of everyone here at Hard Knocks, I want to wish you an enjoyable time here, and good luck. Anytime you have an issue, just come and see me during my office hours or send me an email!

Yes, thanks again, Mr Brent.

Oh, just call me Jason. We're all equals here.

OK Jason. Thanks again and have a great rest of the day.

Will do. Same to you. Goodbye. (Shows Mr Mean out the door)

Goodbye.

GM Jason Brent closes the door and says to himself as he resumes his work.

"Hmm, seems like a nice guy, quite unlike his name. I can hardly wait to see what he's like inside the ring..."
