A "work" in progress
How do you leave behind all you ever knew?
On December 12, 2009 around 9:00 p.m., I will be walking out of Court Time Sports Center, and walking away from the professional wrestling business forever. The title of this blog is meant in jest, but will give ammunition to those who feel that this is a big storyline and that I am not going anywhere.
A lot of people have asked why I am leaving, and my hope is that on the above listed date, I will be able to address the crowd and wrestlers at Court Time, and offer them some closure. If you find this blog interesting and continue to read it, you’ll have your answer long before I step into the ring.
Over the last few weeks, I have been afforded the opportunity to reconnect with some amazing people from my past, and share special times with my cohorts from all over the United States as part of the I.C.C.F.A. University (more on that later). When I told them my history both in the funeral business, wrestling business, and personal beeswax, they told me that its something that should be shared with others. So I would like to share my story with you, a love for the business that started at the age of 5, and ended for me just a few weeks ago in Tunica, Miss., as I turned off my hotel room light around 3:30 in the morning, just after deciding wrestling was something I needed to leave.
I will warn you up front, this will be a no holds barred look at my history in the business through my eyes, and I intend to hold nothing back.
So let’s have some fun, and tear up the next four months..
