Ever chip a tooth and cut the inside of your cheek with it?
It's almost as annoying as you are Addisyn.
Almost.
The National Motorcycle Museum just South East of the NEC Arena in Birmingham UK.
I'm walking around the Museum taking in all the history that's in this building. Some of the finest bikes ever made are housed here. Relics from an era before we were even born to modern time classics. Even the most expensive bike ever made is housed here, a gold platted gem of a by gone era.
I love Motorcycles, I used to ride all the time but I promised to give it up after the birth of our daughter. I even sold my 3 bikes to make good on that promise. I miss my soft tail the most but the Ninja was fun also just for pure speed.
I feel my phone vibrate as I am taking in the exhibits and heading towards the main floor where they are having a International Record Fair. All kinds of old time 78rpm records being sold, lines of venders hocking their wares, some not even knowing the value of the things they are selling.
"Hey babe what’s going on?"
"Not much just got the baby down to sleep so I figured I'd call and check in on you, how’s the UK tour going?"
"Good, had a great match last week with a half blind monkey who, to be honest, gave me more trouble than I expected."
"I told you not to sleep on Gillmen, he's got special talent and I can see him becoming the next big star of IWF, not as big of star as you but you know what I mean."
"The kid has potential I'll give you that."
"Listen James"
Oh no, here it comes, she only uses my name when she wants to get serious about something.
"I know you went back to this business to show our daughter that dreams can be achieved, and I understand you are trying your hardest to be a...good role model but..."
Here it comes.
"That’s not you James, this is not what brought you to the top before."
"I know where you are going with this darling but I am not calling him, I am going to do this on my own this time, no stables, no tag teams, just me. JFK alone against the IWF. Even against my old friends like AJ if need be."
I heard you son, I heard the comment you made, don't make me go Overdrive on your ass.
"No that's not what I was going to say, if you’d let me finish."
"Sorry."
"You've been so hell bent on trying to be this nice guy, this good guy, maybe with a little bit of a chip on your shoulder but James...this is not who you are, you are not the devil they know, you are the devil they don't. It's time to embrace that darkness inside of you James, let it out in that ring. Be the man we both know you to be. Ruthless, cunning, dangerous."
"What about the ramifications?"
"I'll deal with that James, I'll explain to Anna when she's old enough to understand that daddy had to do what daddy does best."
"Maybe you are right..."
"Maybe?"
"Ok ok, you are right."
"As always...crap....she's fussing, I'll call you back later, love you."
"Love you too darling."
I shove the phone back into my pocket as I am flipping through a crate of 78rpm records. I see one that catches my eye.
"How much?"
I hold it up for the vendor, he says something in a very thick British accent, I make out that he said 100 pounds, I pull out a bill and hand it to him, I would have gave him 10,000, as this is a very rare piece. I grin to myself as I walk out with the record in hand, Devil Got My Woman by Skip James.
I caught a new STD this week.
We are calling it The Addisyn.
The symptoms are a massive headache from the screeching in your ear.
To an irritable bowel due to the massive amount of shit she shovels.
"Ew JFK again? He's so old...he's so ugly...he's so washed up"
Did I cover everything for ya Addisyn? Did I get all the lies right? We all know you are my biggest swimfan, we all know you have my best of tapes. It's OK to admit, you are a fan of JFK.
I give the ever so slightest of grins.
I don't like you Addisyn.
But I do respect your boy. John. You mind if I continue to call you John? Sure you do, like I said before you look like a John, you're going to continue to be John.
Maybe if we ever face each other again (hopefully a long time down the road) I'll use my resources to find out what your real name is, shouldn’t be that hard for a man with my connections. But until then.
What's up John? How you doing? Feeling good? You should. You had a very impressive win over me a few weeks ago.
Yeah I can admit when I lost. You beat me. Fair and square. Can't, won't deny it.
I'm somewhat proud of you actually.
Because you did it on your own.
You beat me, one on one, with no help for your whore. And for that, I give you a golf clap.
Golf clap. (see Men at Work if you don't get the reference)
I told you a few weeks ago John, lose the whore and you could become something in this company, and then you go and prove it that very same week, you proved that you don’t NEED her to help you win matches, you don’t NEED her to become a star in the IWF, you don't NEED her....period.
Addisyn is a cancer in your life John, the sooner you cut her out the longer of a life you will have.
But don't think that this week is going to be the same John, I'm a man who was trained by one of the most cerebral warriors this business has ever seen and if there is one thing he thought me that is more important than anything else it is to learn from your mistakes. I got caught up in your power, I got caught up thinking I could out power you and take you on head on.
I was wrong.
And I will learn from that, I have a whole new game plan for dealing with you this week John, and that being....well....why would I tell you that?
I wink
Know this John, there is a reason they keep booking us together, that's ratings. Our match a few weeks ago was the 2nd highest rated segment on the show. That's what I bring to the IWF John, I bring eyes to the TV set that wouldn’t normally be watching, my fame goes beyond that ring.
And you, you are starting to get there, people are talking about you being the next big "monster" of the IWF but they are also saying that Addisyn is holding you back.
She takes all the credit for your success John, and you seem to be ok with that. Why? You put your body on the line for her, while she gives hers away to any Tom Dick and Harry that'll have her.
Once, just once I'd like to see Addisyn get into that ring with someone. Hell, get in that ring with me Addisyn.
My uncle always told me never to lay hands on women. My uncle was more of a father figure to me than my own father, my own father was too busy being a drunk and laying hands on women.
But for your Addisyn, for you, I'll become my father. Get in that ring with me Addisyn and I'll show you first hand why I am considered one of the most dangerous men on this planet. Get in that ring with me and I'll give you the spanking your daddy should have gave you years ago. Get in that ring and I will show you why they call me the American Monster.
Get in that ring with me Addisyn, and I'll show you why....
It sucks to be you.
