Sample Pic of Wrestler:
Brief History - He started a pro-wrestling blog while in college, and quickly rose through the ranks of a pro-wrestling magazine upon graduation. He was once a womanizer, but has since settled down.

Sample RP:
Editor: Jack, I've got a proposition for you. Your articles haven't had the viewership they once did. Fans are saying that you should get in the ring, and try to gain a new perspective on professional wrestling. What do you think?
Jack: Anyone can wrestle, right? Why not? You throw a punch that really misses, but the guy falls over like he was hit by a truck. You kick a guy in the gut, but he doubles over like he's got a big one brewing. I've been covering this business for years, and I've never once seen a match that I couldn't do. I'll tell you what. I'll give it a shot. Along the way, I'll shoot you some e-mails on my research. Could be a good career move. Not every magazine has a nationally-read columnist, that was also a world champ. What company you think I should start in?
Editor: We're thinking you go straight to the top, since you think it's so easy.
Jack: WZCW? Pfft...No problem. I'll be back in a month with a belt for you.
