(Young Serena Inoue steps into the HQ of the Women's Professional Wrestling League, she was told to talk to Ms.Andrews. Serena was a young woman in her early 20's, approximately 115 Pounds, 5 foot 4 or so. She was dressed somewhat smartly with a Red Skirt. She eventually entered and the Secretary told her to have a seat and that she would be with her in a moment.)
MS.ANDREWS: Ms.Inoue, I am ready for you now.
(Ms.Andrews escorts Serena to a chair and she sits behind her desk.)
MS.ANDREWS: Well, Serena you want a job in the WPWL, you know this is a World Wide Organization, we have hired the best of the best. I know you have some talent, first problem is you are not at the World Level Yet, you will wrestle several events in the United States. You are smaller, once we set this company up we plan on having special Cruiserweight Tournaments as well as Regular Tournaments.
SERENA: Yes Ms.Andrews, what do you need to know.
MS.ANDREWS: Well Serena I know some stuff about you, you are 20 Years Old, 5'4, 115 Pounds. You have done some work on the West Coast Independent Scene right.
SERENA: Yeah
MS.ANDREWS: You have also done some good work as a Tag Team.
SERENA: Yeah, me and my good friend Brittany Daniels.
MS.ANDREWS: Here is how we work, we have hundreds of wrestlers from all over the world, we have a couple of hundred of tournaments with 32-64 wrestlers in each of them. Also because you are still a younger wrestler you would probably have to go through qualifying to get into the tournament.
SERENA (nervously): OK, I guess I understand.
MS.ANDREWS: Now the Tag Team Division will probably be limited to 16-32 Teams, once again there may be qualifiers and since you are lesser ranked, you would have to go through that.
SERENA: OK, I understand.
MS.ANDREWS: But you do good there are several Big Time Events in the US & Canada, and will be eligible to go through Qualifying Matches for them, and that might lead you to the World Tour Fall Time. I have a list of tournaments that my people have suggested for you, you should pick out about 5 for the next 2 Month Period, we will talk about other events after you have done an event or two here. But that is about normal, just call me if you get injured or whatever and cannot make an event. It is more important to get yourself in shape and learn about the sport, I know by talking to Veteran Wrestlers that you learn by wrestling.
SERENA: I understand.
MS.ANDREWS: I recommend that you continue training to keep yourself sharp. If Brittany wants to train with you that’s great, I also have some Phone Numbers for girls in your area that may be willing to train in the ring with you. Sounds good.
SERENA: That sounds wonderful.
MS.ANDREWS: Don't worry about flying, I have bought several decent airplanes. Also, I have deals were several airlines.
SERENA (smiles): That sounds Real Good.
MS.ANDREWS: You better get to work training and taking a look at what events you want to do for the next 2 Months.
SERENA: Sounds reasonable. In fact I'll probably look at it on the plane ride home. I see some are some tournaments score more points and worth more money that others.
MS.ANDREWS: Yeah, you would involved in Tier 1-3 Tournaments at first, some Bigger Talent may be involved in these events, but only a few.
SERENA: OK, that sounds interesting.
MS.ANDREWS:Remember Tier 3 will pay more money, but remember there will be better International Competition. Just remember that.
SERENA: Yeah, but as you said, it will help me improve as a wrestler.
MS.ANDREWS: I tell you what, it's my lunchtime, lets the two of us talk your schedule at lunch; come on.
(The two ladies go down the road to a local sandwich shop where the two ladies have their lunches.)
MS.ANDREWS: Any idea on where you want to go.
SERENA: Well, I grew up in the Western US, the event in Long Beach is just too tempting although it is a Tier 3 Event.
MS.ANDREWS: Perfectly understand Serena, well that is one of five. There are four or five more to pick up.
SERENA: Well, I guess Tulsa isn't so bad. That would be a second event.
MS.ANDREWS: You like Tulsa, a smaller Tier 1 Event. On one hand you need some events like this to maybe jump your confidence.
SERENA:What about that event in Edmonton, a good Tier 2 Event.
MS.ANDREWS: OK, that would be a reasonable event. I will lock you in for that event.
SERENA: Hmmm...Sarasota, it would be good to be in that sort of environment.
MS.ANDREWS: Remember, you will be spending most of your time wrestling, but yeah a good Tier 2 Event. One maybe two more.
(Serena looks at her piece of paper, and eventually says to Ms.Andrews.
SERENA: Ms.Andrews why don't you give me one more event.
MS.ANDREWS: OK, what about Portland, Oregon, a good solid Tier 2 Event, you should do OK in that event.
SERENA: OK, that sounds good.
MS.ANDREWS: Well, we have a provisionals for other events, would you like to be on the list for Tier 1-3 Events.
SERENA: Excellent.
MS.ANDREWS: That means you will be on a list of Provisionals for other events just in case other wrestlers cannot make it, that will be up to promoters.
SERENA: Completely Understand.
MS.ANDERSON: It was nice talking to you. Hope to see you soon.
SERENA: Thank you.
