Considered this an f'n update!
Well, finally, I decided to update this after a much long awaited well wait. Ha! When your over like me, you get to have the long waiting journal entries. Anyway, hopefully, everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I mark for Thanksgiving because normally I get to wrestle in front of packed houses and get to eat lots of food. Unfortunately, this year, I only got to eat, but heh, take what you get.

Now, normally, I talk about my matches on the road, but lets just put it this way, with the exception of two shows (Dickson, Tennessee and New Albany, Indiana), I've wrestled the same guy in Eric Darkstorm every week. So, I'll give a brief background of the matches. Eric and I (along with Shane Matthews, Chris Vega & Chance Prophet) all pretty much started together, in fact four of the five even trained at Jimmy Valiant's wrestling school together, so we pretty much broke in the business together. Out of my five years in the business, I never really got to wrestle Eric that much, usually a couple times a year, but not much. Well, here lately, Eric and I have wrestled each other consistantly for the first time. Most of our matches remind me of my series with Jason Kincaid, it started off rough, the second match was roughed a bit, but had its moments, but by the third or fourth match, most of the stuff that was rough was smoothed out, and the matches are getting better and better. Sometimes we'll even debut a new move (i.e. "Dead Zone Destroyer"), sometimes we'll have something totally monkey f'n a football bad, but I'm really enjoying our matches.

Now, I was reading up on Kliff Hanger's journal the other day, and I always get a good laugh when reading it, and if you thought I had some controversial journals, well, I think he may have beat me on those, although I know more controversial ones. Anyway, I happened to notice how he mentioned how alot of independent wrestlers lie alot, which is so true. For every "name" or major promotion you've wrestled for, these goofs have done it twenty times better. Anyways, I noticed how Kliff also mentioned "If there is no pics or video, it didn't happen". Now, lets get down to it, I've been on countless shows with "names" and I hate the whole name dropping gimmick, but I'm going to break my own rule for a change, I've been on shows with guys like Tracy Smothers, Ricky Morton, Jimmy Valiant, Buff Bagwell, Shannon Moore, C.W. Anderson, X-Pac, The Barbarian, Raven, Shane Douglas, Chavo Guerrero Sr., Rick Steiner, Steve Corino, Jamie Noble, Rob Conway, Elix Skipper, Ron Killings, Chase Stevens, Robert Gibson, Bobby Eaton, Dennis Condrey, ect. I can go on and on and on and on, but the only one I ever had a picture taken with was Bobby Eaton (just because I'm just a mark for him), but it didn't mean, I didn't meet any of these other guys. I can see where Kliff is going, because I've been on shows with guys that go "Yep, I'm working New Jack next week" or "I'm working Jerry Lawler tomorrow" and you know its not true. You just have to use your best judgement on these statements, but hell, what do I know?


Blackballed more than usual,

Heh... I have managed to get ahold of video from almost all of the names I have worked, with the exception of Tracy Smothers. Some of it... well, let's just say I don't watch it a lot. I also have pics with most of the "names" I have met on my website with a few exceptions there as well. Mostly cause I just don't mark out to names like I used to.

Anyway, if you really want to get the one-upping started... mention to some workers how little sleep you have had. No matter if I have been up for 36 hours straight, there is always at least one guy in the room who has been up for 42. Never fails. If I have the flu, another guy has pnemonia. Ugh. Workers.
