JManM

After a four fight losing streak a former college wrestling star gets cut from the UFC. Fortunately he doesn't have to go home and tell his family that he is officially cut because Forrest Griffin runs him over in his hurry to nab that sweet Toyo Tires exclusive parking spot. Instead of going home in shame, our hero reincarnates as Jaune Arc in RWBY. Not that you would know that from reading the fic as I skip strait to the start of canon. 
That's right, no trite BS about being a full grown man in a baby's body. And no existential angst about the life he left behind or what happened to canon Jaune's soul. No anxiety attacks over how the world will be under attack from the Queen of Evil by the time he is a young man. 
No wasted chapters wanking the MC off by having him write Harry Potter or Fifty Shades or any other ridiculous way to make money that would require a serious skill set or access to Wikipedia, this guy had to work at the local hardware store to afford the tools and materials needed to craft his huntsman equipment. 
No goldfinger either. Just a guy dropped into a character that never reached his pinnacle because he started the show with absolutely zero knowledge of combat and fitness. 
Anyway, our Jaune starts off ready to take the world of Remnant, but something keeps preventing him from stealing the shine off the main cast.
