Icebreaker
I, I can't shake the feeling of hearing the ref's hand strike the mat for the third time.
I, I can't shake the feeling of hearing the ref's hand strike the mat for the third time.
I know I could of beat him
I had him right where I wanted him and somehow couldn't get a grip and I let it slip between my fingers.
My last match before I came to WFWF and I lost. Way to reaffirm my reputation as one of the best wrestlers in the world
I don't wanna make this a losing streak
I have to win my first match
No matter who my opponent is
I wish I could stop remembering
Remembering everything about that match
How it haunts me that I was so close
Yet so far from getting the win
What happens if i lose my first match
They would be really proud they signed me then
Johnny rolls out of bed and takes a drink out of a warm water bottle he left out overnight on his nightstand
Dad! Bryce yells
As he about spits out his water Johnny runs to Bryce's room and to his surprise sees him standing on his bed and a cockroach scurrying across the floor and under the dresser
Dad it went under the dresser
Kill it now!
Okay just calm down and I will
Dad it's climbing the wall?
O-okay I'll get it
Johnny grabs a book and goes to smash the cockroach as it flies away
Johnny and Bryce look at each other in amazement
Cockroaches fly said Johnny as he laughed
Bryce then lays on the bed and puts his blanket over him
Carefully tucking the blanket under him where the bug can't get him
Smack!
There Bryce I got it look
He peaks out under his blanket and sees the dead cockroach
I hate this place dad
I want a house
Not a dirty apartment
I know I do to but it's only temporary Bryce
Let me get on my feet and we'll get a house I promise
Whatever
Follow me to the kitchen we'll go get some ice cream
After the ice cream is gone and Bryce is left satisfied once again there's a knock at the door
Its Brandon the neighbor
Johnny! We still going out tonight
Sure I guess if we have to
You don't seem to excited
Well that's because I'm not
You'll be fine
Later that night
Idk about this
You'll be fine says Brandon
Eh okay it's been awhile since I've talked to a girl anyways
Maybe I'll find one in here
Johnny sits down and asks for crown royal whisky
Apple flavored
No ice
After awhile of drinking and scoping out the room Johnny sees a cute girl in a booth near the back with a couple of other girls
Johnny approaches her
Hey how are you doing my name is Johnny
I'm a professional wrestler for the WFWF
Oh really
What's your wrestling name
Just my real name
Johnny Mason
No, no you need a WRESTLING name says the cute girl with a sarcastic smile on her face
Here let me analyze you and I'll come up with something
Uh okay
She stares down every inch of Johnny and finally says
You have no ice in your cup.
Uh yeah I don't like ice. If the drinks already cold-
ICEBREAKER
That's your name
Send me a check when you make it big
Icebreaker?
Yeah like heavy polar bears and stuff
It suits you well
Okay? I guess? I hope you come to one of the shows. What's your name again
Well I never told you my name but it's Hannah
Okay Hannah have a good night
And you to icebreaker!
Man I ed that up thought Johnny as he goes back to his seat to Brandon laughing at him
The next morning
Johnny Mason gets a phone call from Lila Sleater
So Johnny we booked you for your first match!
That's great who is it against
Well actually its against both Steve Stilleto and Luke Marshall
Being that you all made a introduction at superbrawl what better way than to throw you guys into a triple threat and see who comes out on top
Thank you for the opportunity
I won't let you down
Im sure you won't Johnny
Good luck in your match
Thank you
The night of the ppv
Well today is the day
My big debut in the triple threat match
Time to make a impact.
As for my opponents Steve Stellito and Luke Marshall, I seen their superbrawl moments just like mine. Besides that they're relatively unknown
On one side you got Luke Marshall or "The father" as he likes to call himself. He hacked into the superbrawl feed and shown himself with all of his followers. Or sheep
The way he talks about himself. It's time to find out if he's for real or just a sheep himself hiding in wolves clothing
On the other side is Steve Stilleto
Don't even know the guy and already don't like him. He sounds like a cocky, arrogant, punk and I'll gladly shut him up
As Johnny is walking through a hallway he spots Devilkiller.
Maybe he can help me with something
Something that's been eating away at the fiber of my being
So devilkiller right? Does that mean you're godsent? Wait nevermind. Are you sure you know what you're getting yourself into with needles? After what he did to mesh I hope I dont see the same thing happen to you
Am I sure? Yes. I talked to Ms. Sleater about this, because he needs some kind of social justice. Even if it's to be shown he isn't the end-all, be-all. I appreciate your concern, and my apologies but I haven't seen your face around. You're one of the new guys right?
Yes I just got signed recently. Got my first match tonight against Steve Stiletto and Luke Marshall. I know triple threats can be unpredictable. Any advice?
Devilkiller chuckles softly and looks down the long hallway both ways before whispering into Johnny Mason's ear
Unless you can grow eyes out of the back of your head, no. It's do or die. Goodluck brother.
Devilkiller turns to walk away from the youngster but Mason quickly has something else to say
Well thank you I guess. But I've heard rumblings about Jayson Sykes coming back to WFWF. He is someone who helped open the door for me here. But beat me in my final match before coming here. Have you heard anything about it?
Devilkiller stops and cocks his head, turning back around to face the youngin
I have. I opened the door for him here. And you know him from where? Your last indy match?
Yes my last indy match. Unfortunately he beat me in that match and let's just say I'm eager to get back in there with him
Well.
Devilkiller takes a deep breath, looking back at the young hopeful's eyes
I'll tell Jayson to get into contact with you. I'll see if he'll want you as a first match back. Might be nice for him to get back in with a familiar face.
Thank you says Johnny with a wicked grin on his face
Good luck in your match tonight. I hope that assh*le gets what he deserves
Johnny finds a dark quiet spot in the back as he gets out his phone and calls Bryce.
Hey buddy are you doing okay
Yes dad I'm so excited to see you kick some ass! I wish i was there with you
Well I'm glad son. I'll definitely give it my all back there
Be good and maybe you can come along next time
You enjoying staying with Brandon tonight to watch the show
Yes dad hes awesome. We are getting ready to order a pizza. A extra large one
That's great son
I hope you enjoy the show
I'll keep in mind my number one fan will be cheering me on
I'm gonna get ready for my match son
I love you
I love you dad
Johnny keeps a smile on his face up until the moment he realizes his match is getting ready to start
He thinks about Jayson and how if he gets a winning streak going on he can build some momentum heading into that match
Johnny laces his white boots up and looks himself in the mirror
I'm doing this for Bryce
I'm doing this for everybody in the Indies who didn't make it
I'm doing this for myself
To Bryce
I love you
And I hope I make you proud
To my opponents
You better bring the best you can muster up inside your body. If you try to get in my way you can see how cold hearted I can be
I have ice in my veins and the devil on my shoulder
He will pull me closer until I achieve my goal.
Johnny closes his eyes and takes a deep breath
