Dru sits within the lounge of the Angel Tower lobby, checking his email on his Blackberry. He receives an alert on it regarding a new post on APW.net's "Rumor Mill" regarding an aparent deal reached with none other then Jayson Jones, a man he'd had a mixed past with. The last time he'd wrestled him was years ago in another company for it's world title, a match Dru won. For years it'd been anticipated a rematch between the 2, but due to behind the scenes politics and events within there personal lives, it would never come to pass. Dru leans back and thinks to himself...
Jayson Jones let loose in Toronto? Why not just drop a nuke on this town, you'll get the same effect. I understand APW is trying to establish itself as a powerhouse in the industry, but hell...that man is just a 1 man circus. Still, it's been nearly 6 months since anyone's even seen him, maybe he's turned over a new leaf...or...maybe he's even worse then he was back in New York. 1 thing's for certain, it's damn sure gonna get interesting when and if he does show up.
Suddenly, Dru's thought is interupted by...

Alex Price slides into the chair next to Dru. A soda in hand. He notices the pensive look on Nedermeyer's face and decides to make conversation with him-
Hey big man. Alex Price is the name and turning wives into Ex-wives is my game. 1st off I wanna say it's an honor to meet you in person...uhm..."sir". I mean, you're like a icon and all. I grew up watching you, and now here I am working in the same company as you, pretty cool, huh? Anyways, What's the long face for, man? Your cat died or something?
Alex takes a sip of his soda as he awaits Dru's answer.

Dru looks up from his Blackberry at young Mr. Price with a perplexed look on his face. He responds...
Turning wives into Ex-wives is my game? 'You came up with that by yerself, kid? Yikes...that was bad. And I dont mean "good" bad. Anyway, if you must know...there's speculation that Jayson Jones may be on his way to APW, which is good and bad all at once. Good because he's 1 of the best damn wrestlers in the industry today, bad because...well...He also just so happens to be JAYSON JONES. Pretty self explainitory. Lord knows what kinda' anarchy is gonna follow him up hear. He's pissed off more people in the last year then many human beings do in a life time, but still...he puts asses in the seats, and from a buisness stand point, and I KNOW the buisness, that's all they want.
Dru pauses...then asks...
What'd you say yer name was again???

Alex scowls at Dru's question. He reluctantly answers-
Alex. Price. A-L-E-X...P-R-I-C-E.
He takes another swig of his soda and sets it on the table-
I haven't heard his name in months. Besides, what do you care? Last I heard you both weren't exactly "chummy" and stuff. What, you afarid he's gonna hog the spotlight? Cause friction between the rest of the roster? Dude, you're not the safety patrol here. The way I see it, him being here is enough to show the world that APW is all buisness, if they're willing to take that kinda' risk. The Cowboys did it with TO, and look where they are, sitting pretty on top of the NFC East. So lighten up a bit, chrome dome.

Dru eyes down the young man, but laughs a bit to himself of his obvious moxy. He responds...
I know Jones, and I know how his brain ticks. For all the talent he has, he's a ticking time bomb. Crass, vulgar, crude, you name it, he's got it down. I'll admit, I AM concerned that he may be coming to APW, but I'm more concerned with what he's bringing to APW with him, a reputation of bending every possible rule he can. Jayson Jones has made a career of rubbing people the wrong way, and to this day no one has had a real answer for it aside from firing him, but what good does that do on account that he just resurfaces somewhere new. I may not like the guy much, but I respect him. So on that note I dont wanna see him get shafted, AGAIN. On the other hand, the last to places he was did there damndest to censor the poor fella, maybe APW is thinking of a different approach. Who knows.
He pauses momentarily and adds...
Oh, and call me chrome dome again and the next soda you drink will be through tubes in you neck.

Alex answer in kind-
Whoa man, there's this thing called "a grip". You need to get 1, pronto.
From what I hear you've got a date with "The Canadian Snowplow". Jayson Jones should be the least of your worries. But hey, you're "The Monster". You pretty much do you, why bother changing that now. Well, this has been fun, but...I just spotted 1 fine lookin' lil' red head over there and I'd be a shame to leave her to the wolves. See ya'.
In a flash, Alex is off and across the lounge, leaving Dru alone once again.

As Alex darts off, Dru shakes his head, thinking to himself once again...
I can't believe I was like that when i was his age. Jeezus I'm gettin' old. But the kid makes a valid point. Besides, It'd be nice to see Jay-J get his due, and maybe even stir up a lil' trouble here and there. This place seems a bit to tight as is. Oh well, All that's left to do is wait for this press conference he's supposed to be holding. I've gotta be there for that one. Hey look, the realtor sent me a message on that house. The asking price better be on point this time...
Dru continues checking his messages as before his convo with Price.
