The Hart of Training

Nattie was contacted by one of her peers and some NXT trainers, who asked her if she wouldn't mind training with some of the talent when she was back in the area. While Nattie was usually pretty busy, she was lucky enough to have two days off this week. She spent a day with TJ and then today, she figured she would go down to the Performance Center to help train. She had arrived a half hour earlier to greet the staff and start up on her warm up. Hearing the door open, she looked over and saw her trainee. "Hi, how are you?" she asked as she leaned against the ropes with a smile.

(anyone )

"Hey." Stephanie smiled as she walked in with her gym bag slung over her shoulder. "I'm good thanks yourself?" she asked setting her things down.

"I'm great." she said. "Excited for our session today."

"I sure am." Stephanie said tying her hair up into a ponytail before rolling into the ring. "It really means a lot for you to take the time to help me train."

"Oh please it's not big deal." she brushed it off. "I've seen your matches lately and you've improved so much. We can definitely go over stuff or anything you want to improve on."

"Thank you. That means a lot coming from you." she smiled. "Sound great."

"No problem." she smiled. "So, let's just warm up a bit and you can tell me what your goals are for today. Like what you want to focus on today." she said as she sat on the mat and then spread out her legs so she could stretch some more.

Stephanie also sat down beginning to stretch. "I want to work on reversals for sure. And maybe some flashy moves."

"We can do that." she nodded. "Any idea for the flashy ones? Like do you want off the top rope stuff?"

"Oh my god yes that would be sick." she said.

"Right?" she chuckled. "Especially since a lot of girls don't do them often. We only have a few high flyers but it's always nice to have some of those moves in your arsenal. Especially for huge moments during matches."

"Gotta pull something out of the bag for that Mania moment right?" she chuckled.

"Always." she laughed as she moved over to stretch out her other leg. "Have you heard anything from the higher ups about Wrestlemania?"

"Not yet." she said. "This is my third Mania so hopefully I finally get on the card. What about you?"

"Nothing yet. With my luck, I'll be showing some new girls around again." she shook her head.

"I think they learned their lesson not to do that again. But if they do give me a call and I'll give management a piece of my mind." she joked.

"Oh I will gladly let you have a talk with them." she laughed. "They deserve a verbal bashing every now and then."

"You can say that again." she chuckled.

Nattie let out a laugh as she finished stretching. "Ready when you are."

"Ready." she smiled getting up to her feet.

"Great. So we'll just start up a match and call different spots. If there's something you're not too confident with, then I'll help you out.'

''Sounds good." she nodded.

"Alright, so let's start with a lock up." she told her, getting into position.

Stephanie circled the ring a little before meeting up with Nattie in the middle locking up.

"Good lock up." Nattie said. "Just lock it in a little tighter so the fans think it's aggressive. Especially since you're a heel, it'll work."
