After long hours on the road, a few shorts stops, and one quick nap later....187 finally arrived at the Angel's Tower. He wasn't used to Canada but he could deal with it. Nothing like the streets of Compton that he was used to. He heard this company went all over the world, so he knew that he wouldn't have to adjust that much. Which was a lot different than the previous couple companies he had worked for. It was something new. Something different. Something he could handle with no problem at all. As he walked the halls, he was looking for the offices of those three women that he heard ran this company. He didn't know what to expect. He knew very little about the place and very little about those who made APW work. He didn't get a chance to speak with any of these "Angels" himself, but from what his representatives had told him, this place should be alright. Things were really looking good for APW. It might just rise up off the ground with ease. Of course, 187 was a little skeptical about the whole ordeal. That's what he was told in New York and Ohio, and well...things didn't really work out there. He held no grudges though. He decided to see what APW was about anyways despite what he felt about it. He didn't know much about APW so he couldn't really judge it without checking it out for himself. He just kept moving along. After walking the halls a few minutes, looking at the names of the rooms on the doors of them. Reading them in his mind. A smirk came across his face as he stopped infront of one that read the name "Candice" across it. The Angels must have separate offices he thought. Well, he figured he only needed but one of them to get a contract signed here and he'd meet the others sometime in the near future. He brought a closed fist up to the office door and knocked several times. Then he stood there and awaited an answer from inside...

$-Having gave her secretary Kimberly the day off, Candice hears the knock at her office door and stands from her chair and begins making her way over towards it to answer. After reaching down to adjust her skirt really quick, she let's out a small sigh as the day had begun to wear on her after the meetings she'd had with several employee hopefuls. She turns the knob to the door and opens it. Immediately noticing the man on the other side a smile comes to her face as she greets him.-$
[glow=blue,2,300]Well hello Mr. Taylor. Nice to see you finally made it to join us here in beautiful Toronto. Please. Come in and have a seat.[/glow]
$-As she motions her hand and steps to the side for him to enter, she quickly notices the scar across his face. To her that immediately indicates that this was a man with no fear and no inhibitions about doing what needed to be done at any time. She liked that and thought it to be kind of sexy also. And god what woman doesn't love a "bad boy". Then again, Candi just loves men. She closes the door behind him as he enters the room. After wards she begins making her way toward her desk as she speaks...-$
[glow=blue,2,300]Please Mr. Taylor have a seat...Make yourself comfortable. We have much to discuss...[/glow]

Yo'. Whattup?
Was the first thing that came out of his mouth when he first saw her. That's how he greeted her. A smirk came to his face as who appeared to be Candice was surprisingly a young, gorgeous, blonde woman. Something not too common from what he's seen so far. Usually it's some older people who own the wrestling company but somehow are still able to stick and move. He stepped inside of the office, looking around the room as he closed the door behind him. Nodding his head as he says to himself...
Interesting...
The office was a bit too fancy for his tastes but he wasn't going to complain. You have to have money in order to run a company. And whatever makes you comfortable, you should go ahead and get comfortable. As he nodded his head while looking around, he began to wonder what the bosses were going to be like. He then begins to make his way to the front of the desk where the woman infront of him has walked over to. Then he took a seat in the empty chair that sat infront of the desk. Placing his elbows ontop of his knees as he leaned forward. Looking up at the woman infront of him, he says...
Much to discuss you say? A'ight. I'm all ears. Whatcha wanna discuss?

$-Candice cracks a small smile hearing Mr. Taylor ask of what needed to be discussed at this moment in time. Playing hard to get she thought. But she was the master at doing that so he didn't stand a chance so she offered...-$
[glow=blue,2,300]I think you and I both know Mr. Taylor. We both know very well.[/glow]
$-She then leans back in her chair getting herself comfortable and crossing her legs in a slow and sensual way all the while her gaze never leaving his.-$
[glow=blue,2,300]You are a wrestler no? We are a wrestling promotion. The two go hand in hand. You are without a doubt one of the most...What's the word?...Entertaining figures in recent years. At least that's what my research shows anyway. You have quite the way with words and violence. Violence seems to be your forte' actually. You seem to enjoy it and the fans seem to enjoy SEEING you enjoy it also. So. To cut to the chase sir, Action Packed Wrestling intends on being second to none when it comes to the quality of our promotion and the entertainment we provide for our fans. You're the sort of individual that could help ensure that we step out next year on the right foot. Do you follow what I'm saying Mr. Taylor?[/glow]

He couldn't help but stare at the woman across from him. That smirk growing slightly as she crossed her legs but he brought his eyes up to meet hers. This was a business type of meeting, have to keep it business. Of course, all work and no play makes "Jack" a dull boy, but there's always time for play after work. He kept his eyes locked on hers as he slowly began to nod his head again as she spoke to him. Everything she said was true. He then went on to respond after she questions him...
Yep. 'Dats pretty much it. A wrestla'? I guess you could call me 'dat. 'Dis is definitely a wrestlin' promotion. I guess I am pretty entertainin'. I ain't full of myself. Neva' 'dat. Ain't bein' cocky or nothin', but 'da crowds reaction don't lie when I they see me do my thing. As you've mention, the fans enjoy seein' me go to work on my opponents. They enjoy watchin' me do what I do. They like seein' me beat someone left and right across 'da place. If they keep reactin' the way they do, I'ma keep doin' what I do. Even when I'm 'da bad guy in 'da situation, 'da fans love me. Now you know I gotta be doin' somethin' right if 'da fans love me eitha' way. They violence hungry. I give 'em what they want. I do enjoy bustin' a head or two myself. 'Dis is true. I've been known to kick a lil' @$$ here and there. Been known to do some thangs 'dat ain't 'da most legal type of things to be doin', but hell...it's earned me 'da nickname 'dat rightfully fits me... "Da King of Controversary"... "Menace II Society"... things like 'dat people have been callin' me.
He shrugs his shoulders as he pauses for a moment.
What can I say? Controversy sells like a mothaf**ka. And I aim to make people watch all day, every day. I've been known to stay in 'da public eye quite often and I'm usually 'da talk of 'da locka' room. 'Dats how bad I am. Candice is it? I assure you Candice, 'dat me bein' me is nothin' but a good bidness move. You said you've followed my career fo' a lil' while. You know what I've done. You know what has happened when I did what I did. So you can be sure 'dat wit' me here on ya rosta', you can expect me to work hard as hell out there.

$-It's all Candi can do to keep from biting her lip as The Infamous 187 responds to her offer of him coming to work for her sisters and she. That "bad boy" thing again I guess. She thought to herself that she needed some time away from the restrictions of the Tower to...Release some tension soon or she was going to pop. He was one of those roughneck types. Someone who probably stayed in trouble and loved doing it. Yet in still intriguing at the same time. He could probably take out almost any other male competitor if he chose to but he still didn't seem cocky or brash about it. That alone was something interesting enough for her. She then nods her head to him as she chimes in to correct him swiftly.-$
[glow=blue,2,300]No Mr. Taylor that's Ms. Angel. Just to let you know. No harm no foul though. But I'm glad you understand that this is a business and what the fans want they have to get. Simple as that. Now...I also read in your profile compiled by our assistant that you were quite the trouble maker in the previous promotion you worked for Mr. Taylor. You and some of your buddies it seems, took it upon yourselves to participate in several ambushes, a few cafe fights and even mock shows making fun of the wrestlers, staff and others. Quite the spectacle you gentlemen made too. Tell me then. Are there any plans for such behavior here Mr. Taylor? I understand things being done in the name of fun and a good laugh but I don't intend on hearing my name over a radio show making false accusations of my sisters or myself performing..."Acts"...That have never really taken place. Your thoughts? [/glow]

Ah sh*t... Ambushes? We've done a few but 'dats cause in 'da previous company, steroid tests seemed to be non-existant. They had a lot of cock-diesel @$$ mothaf**kas. Just muscle from 'da neck down. Like they can't turn to wipe they own @$$ or somethin'. So ambushes may have had to be necessary is some cased. But we can handle ourselves if it's one on one wit' someone who hasn't been testin' certain "helpa's" when they work out. Or we just pull out 'da weapons and it's on wit' they @$$es. Knock them big mothaf**kas down to size. Cafe fights? Well...
187 begins to laugh to himself as he remembers a certain little "altercation" between himself and another individual that got a little too personal.
We've been in a few of those. Got pretty hectic too but can't go through life wit'out a few bumps, bruisers, or even scars. As fo' mockin' 'da otha's... well...
He laughs to himself as he shook his head. His "buddies" as she put it, his partners in crime, his "brothers" seemed to have created quite a buzz. He looks up at Candice with a smirk on his face. He didn't know how to answer a question like this. He could control his own actions during the show. That was no problem for him. But as for his "brothers", he couldn't put a hold on what they would say on the "shows" that she had just mentioned. He decided to answer it the only way he could think of...
Ah, so you've heard 'bout us huh? Yeah, we done kicked up dust ova' in 'da previous company we worked fo' like hell Ms. Angel. No one was f**kin' wit' us. Not one person on 'dat rosta' ova' there 'dat tried to go against us lasted. Not one. Everyone failed miserbly tryna' do what we do or go against what we were. We dominated 'dat place like no otha' stable in history. If my brothas find they way on ova' here in APW, you can probably expect to hear those very show you just said. Now as far as who's goin' to be on 'da show? Who's names are gonna be thrown about? I can't really guarantee your name won't be brought up. Not sayin' 'dat I would mention yo' name Ms. Angel. I wouldn't say somethin' 'boutcha unless ya deserved it. As many did 'dat were on 'da previous shows. We served those we felt needed to be checked and needed to be dealt wit'. If we couldn't get ahold of these people physically, we'd damn sure get they @$$es verbally. Usually it's open season on who eva'. No ones safe. It depends though. If you're cool wit' us, or even just one of us, 'da possibility of ya name bein' slandered is slim to none. We give those who we have no problems wit', a free pass. But those who've crossed us or just can't help but have to get at on 'da show, was most definitely gonna get it. And they was gonna get it hard. Now Ms. Angel, I can letcha know 'dat if you stay on my good side, as you've been doin' so, I ain't goin' to mention ya at all. Maybe a shout out. Somethin' good. Ya know what I'm sayin'? 'Dis ain't no threat. I ain't tryna' throw no threats ya way. I'm just sayin' I can't really stop my "buddies" from sayin' what they gotta say. But if you cool wit' me, then you'll be cool wit' them. Unless ya get on they bad side, but 'dats them. They do what they do. I do what I do. So you may be able to expect those shows if they do show up in APW. You can expect us to go at the rosta' like no tomorrow if they want it wit' us. You bein' brought up, I can make sure I won't say nothin'. But it's on them if they do.

$-Candice nods her head as she listens to Mr. Taylor's explanation of the aforementioned antics by him and his "brothers in arms" in the recent past. She offers her take on the situation as he finishes up-$
[glow=blue,2,300]I see. Well I guess that's fair enough Mr. Taylor. Fair enough. I even took the liberty of securing one of the tapes of those shows we just discussed. Very...Provacative I guess is the word. Never heard anything like that really...So many four letter words and...Certain...References. But I must admit it did hold my attention. Now...[/glow]
$-She pauses for a few seconds as she looks over his profile document one more time before continuing. A smile comes to her face as she continues...-$
[glow=blue,2,300]The Prince of Hardcore? I like that Mr. Taylor. It suits you very much so. But Mr. Taylor I'd like to get your personal take on pursuing and attaining titles in the world of professional wrestling. More often than not, we always seem to be subjected to individuals who are more focused on having some sort of gold belt around their waist than doing their job. And that's entertain the fans and give them a good show that's worth their money. Do you agree with that Mr. Taylor?[/glow]

He raises an eyebrow as Candice mentions the issue with some people concerning themselves being champions and his own personal views on the subject. He nods his head and then begins to go on and respond with what he thinks about this...
Ah, 'da belt situations eh? Myself, havin' a belt is fine wit' me. It's cool. It proves a little somethin' 'boutcha self. You done beat someone 'dats pretty good themselves. But when it comes down to it, on 'da real, belts don't really mean nothin' to me. They really don't. Not sayin' I don't care 'bout belts. 'Cause I'll want my occasional shot when earned. But those guys you talkin' 'bout 'dat always chasin' a belt, are insecure of their own abilities in 'da ring. I've said it befo' and I'll say it again, belts ain't nothin' but leatha' and gold bound togetha' as a trophy to show what you've accomplished. Belts don't really mean nothin' if 'da person wearin' it don't mean sh*t. It's not 'da belt 'dat makes 'da man 'dats wearin' it. It's 'da man 'dats wearin' 'da belt 'dat makes 'da belt. You feel me? I've done proven myself in 'da ring time and time again 'dat I'm betta' than any title. I'm good as I am wit'out a title. I work my @$$ off in 'da ring. I may not have 'da best of luck 'cause I got all out every match or sometimes not always focused. But sometimes I have a bad night here or there. Sometimes I got otha' things on the mind 'dat wrecks my focus. So my record kind of looks like sh*t but if you watch 'da matches...Every single one of them... You will see 'dat even if I lost 'da match, I damn sure put a hell of a shwo on out there. I still feel good leavin' 'da ring knowin' 'dat I did my best. Now I may get pissed 'dat I lost, but who doesn't? Bottom line is... A belt doesn't measure someone's ability to get down in 'da ring. It's what 'da person in 'da ring shows for themselves infront of 'da people 'dat proves they worth. Now I ain't sayin' every champion ain't worth 'da time. 'Dat ain't 'da case. It's just some of those people who are champions, and as you've mentioned those people who chase titles to prove somethin' aren't worth as much as 'dat belt is really worth. 'Da person wearin' 'da belt has to give 'da belt some worth to it. It's not just the gold 'dat proves anything. 'Da person wearin' 'dat gold has to prove to everyone 'dat there should be good reason 'dat they gotta give a damn 'dat they a champion. You know what I'm sayin'? It makes no sense to me how insecure and petty people can be about they own sh*t 'dat they feel 'da need to go afta' a belt every five minutes in orda' to prove somethin'.
He took a moment to pause and just shrug his shoulders as he didn't understand why there were people like that in the business. But there's no doubt that there will be a person here or there that are challenging for some type of belt every second they don't have one or get the chance to do so.

[glow=blue,2,300]Nice answer Mr. Taylor. Very nice indeed. It is quite refreshing to hear that some of the business' younger and more talented individuals know exactly what things truly boil down to. Entertaining the fans while leaving everything in the ring. Excellent. Excellent Mr. Taylor.[/glow]
$-Their discussion is met with another brief pause as she looks over his profile folder once more before retrieving a APW contract from one of her desk drawers. A smile comes over her face as she grabs a pen, sliding the pen along with the contract across the desk over to Mr. Taylor preparing to "seal the deal".-$
[glow=blue,2,300]Now Mr. Taylor. All that's left is for you to put your "john hancock" in the proper areas of a APW contract and then...You'll officially become part of it's rapidly growing roster.[/glow]

A'ight.
He nods his head to Candice as he looks down at the contract set infront of him. He reaches forward and picks it up off of the table. Skimming through what it says here and there. After a couple of moments of looking over the contract, he sets it back down on the table. Then he reaches forward and picks the pen up off the table too. Using his thumb to press down the buttom for the tip to write with to pop out. He writes in what he needs to here and there. And then he signs right on the dotted line....
X ~Adrian "187" Taylor~ ...............................................
After signing his name down on the contract, he presses the button down on the pen again. Then he places it back onto the table and looks up at Candice. A smirk coming across his face once again as he looks at her.
There ya go Ms. Angel. Anything else ya need fo' me to do while I'm here?

[glow=blue,2,300]Hmmmm...Not this time Mr. Taylor. Not this time. I may need..."Something" from you a little later on though so...Expect me to contact you again...REAL soon...Okay?...[/glow]
$-Nodding his head as confirmation that he'd be expecting the contact they both stand from their seats and share a brief handshake officially sealing the deal to make the Infamous 187 exclusive to Action Packed Wrestling. A most satisfied smirk crosses Candice's face as she begins to follow the young superstar to the door. Along the way she thinks of another opportunity to sign some talent that she knows is "affiliated" with Mr. Taylor and we all know there's nothing like having a connection when doing business so, Candi makes a final statement/request to Mr. Taylor as he reaches for the door knob and turns it.-$
[glow=blue,2,300]And Mr. Taylor...There are a few more individuals that you know very well...Your "brothers"...As you say...That are VERY high on our list of must have talent. If you speak with any of them in the near future would you be a dear and put in a good work for little ol' me?...I would certainly be grateful for it of course...I'm sure they're looking for new places of employment and would like to be reunited with some old..."Friends"...Could you do that for us Mr. Taylor?...[/glow]

She may need to call on him again for something else? Interesting. Very interesting. What could she have in mind for him? He didn't know but he was intrigued on what exactly Candice would want from him or want him to do. Then as she mentions his "brothers", 187 turns to look at her.He begins to nod his head as he knew what possibilities could happen if they were to show up in APW. It would only be a matter of time before the damage they've done in the past continues to grow. That would indeed be quite interesting. A little reunion would definitely be in order if they agreed to come up to Canada. He would definitely make sure that he would get ahold of his "brothers." 187 saw no reason why his "family" shouldn't be here. He begins to nod his head as he looks at Candice. He goes on to say...
Yeah, I'll see what I can do 'bout gettin' my pa'tnahs in crime into 'dis bidness. I'm pretty sure they ain't done kickin' up dust in 'da ring. I'ma catch up wit' them lata' on when I get settled in. I know if I'm here, they gonna atleast be interested in 'da place. Especially if they know I'm runnin' 'round 'dis place. I'll hit them up lata' and let 'em know that you wanna speak wit' them 'bout gettin' some work in on ova' here. A'ight? I'll see you 'round Candice... I mean Ms. Angel. If you need me, you know how to find me. I ain't 'dat hard to find. I'll be on my way so you can get yo' work done.
He recieves his key to his room. With that smirk on his face, he throws the peace sign up in the air as he proceeds to step out of her office and on his way. He's arrived in Canada. The contract has been signed. APW better get ready. It's only going to get worse from here on out...
END
