The Dravers Boys are from a wrestling background nearly as old as wrestling itself. Their uncle Larry Dravers was a former US Champion in the 1970s and their father Richard was also a three time Tag Team Champion in his prime. Richard also later married his on-screen manager Charlotte at the time in real life. It was the twins' Father and Uncle who trained the two. It's even been suggested that their little sister Alex is looking at a wrestling career - not bad for a six year old.
The twins are in their apartment. Jonathan is on the sofa watching his seemingly agitated brother pace up and down.
Nathan: Man do we have to? You know I hate these phone calls.
Jonathan: Course we do! It's Mom!
Nathan: Precisely! It's Mom! We'll be on the phone for ages.
Jonathan rolls his eyes and shakes his head while smiling
Jonathan: I hear you, bro. I feel your pain. I do, but we're doing this. Grow a pair!
Jonathan dials the number of the twins' parents and hits 'CALL'. The phone rings a little before a meek voice answers. It is Alex.
Alex: Hewwo...
Jonathan: Alex? Hi sweetie, it's Jonny. Is Mommy or Daddy there?
Alex suddenly gets excited. She can be heard making a vowel like sound at a pitch that dogs should only be able to hear.
Alex: Jon Jon! Is Nathy with you? I...had ice cream today and...and... we saw ponies and went to the zoo and I have a 'boyfriend'.
Jonathan: Boyfriend? What are you doing with a boyfriend at your age, young lady?! Look, you can tell Nathan and me about your zoo trip soon. We'd love to hear it, but is Mommy or Daddy there?
Upon hearing the word 'boyfriend' in regards to his little sister, Nathan can't help but utter some silent mirth. Jonathan rolls his eyes smiling.
Alex: Uh huh, Mommy is here. I'll get her right now! You wait there Jon Jon. Okay?
Jonathan: OK sweetie.
Charlotte: Hello?
Jonathan: Mom? It's Jon. We have some good news.
Charlotte: Jonny! It's so good to hear from you. What is the news?
Jonathan: Well, we're going to be on TV soon. We've signed a contract to appear at OCW's Monday Night Massacre show. Is Dad there?
Charlotte: You've left RCUW? Why didn't you say anything? But wow, OCW? I'm not familiar with that federation. Is it new? No your Father isn't here at the moment. Just me and your little sister.
Jonathan begins to pace as he talks on the phone
Jonathan: No, it's not new just not that well known. They closed a few years ago but have recently opened again under new management. Yes, RCUW is dead to us. I'm sorry, Mom. I know you and Dad are in their Hall of Fame, but after you left and retired early, it just went all clique-y and backstabby - and that was outside kayfabe! But look, the show is on Monday. You'll be watching right?
Charlotte: Well of course dear! We'll record the show for Alex. She'll want to see her big brothers win their match won't you Alex?
A voice can be heard just off the phone cheering. It's clearly Alex.
Charlotte: *Mimicking her daughter* Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Jonathan: Er Mom, make sure the little one watches it on mute, yeah?
Jonathan smiles slightly.
Jonathan: Wanna speak to Nathan? Uh-huh yeah. Yeah. OK... OK... Mom, yeah...yeah. Here's Nath.
Nathan violently shakes his head but Jonathan shoves the phone into his brother's hands much to Nathan's chagrin. He does his best to fake happiness. Jonathan smiles broadly at his brother's displeasure.
Nathan: Mom! Hi.....yeah we're fine. When are we coming to see you? Oh you know we would but *achoo!* We've got this cold and obviously we don't want Alex to catch it...
Charlotte: Nathan! Your new debut is on Monday - you do not have a cold...
Nathan: Yeah, didn't think you'd buy that, somehow haha... Look, seriously we'll be out when we can. We'll call after our match! But look we've gotta go. Pizza is here. Bye mom. Love you! Bye Alex!
Nathan quickly hangs up and Jonathan looks at Nathan in bemusement, but he smiles.
Jonathan: We have no pizza you cold SOB...
Nathan: I did tell you I hate these...
