Ok, I'll admit.
I've kinda been slacking on my blogging duties for the DWF.
I posted my first article a couple months ago, and I haven't had any since.
Lemme Explain: I had been in a wheelchair for close to 7 years, and last year, on December 21, I developed feeling in my legs for the first time in a long, LOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNGGG time! I got very excited about this, and the DWF was gracious enough to help me with strength training and, well...look who's walking now!
I've been back on my feet, mobile full-time for about a month now and I'm enjoying my life.
...but that's not the best part.
So, we're at the Hall of Fame ceremony. I'm sitting there, watching JT Money, Lord Pistoia, Big Tubby Brown and all those guys get inducted and D.J. Wentworth pulls me to the side and says "I want you to get some tests on your spine."
So I did. Went to Dr. Justin Visconti in Burbank, California. My condition, when first diagnosed, called for temporary paralysis, with no timetable for how long. However, Dr. Visconti runs some tests on me and tells me that not only am I able to live an normal life, but I could wrestle 2-3 more years if I wanted to.
Now, i have to admit. I haven't had a match in 7 years. I prepared for a disabled life of wheelchair-bound actions for the rest of my days. I have to thank God for allowing me the chance to walk again. It's truly a miracle. But the wrestling diagnoses...that's the thing. Here's a guy who retired immediately after his career-ending injury. Starts walking again on March 30th and is told by a doctor that he could wrestle again for another couple of years. Now, I had no desires of doing such thing. But that was before I saw DWF WrestleMania III.
I felt something that night in Phoenix, from my sky box in the VIP section. I felt something watching footage of the late-Great Ray Charles sing America the Beautiful. I felt something watching one of my best friends, Mark Mattitude make his WrestleMania debut in front of his hometown against a legend in the Magnificent Chris Collins. I felt something watching Zippaman and The Rebel, respectively wintheir first ever World Championships. I felt something watching JT Money and The Great One close the show in an epic main event. I DEFINITELY felt something watching Sir Magic and Lord Pistoia steal the show in their epic encounter.
I felt a tug. That passion. That fire. That desire to be in the ring performing for the world as a CAW Wrestling Superstar. I wanted to come back.
I want to come back.
The one thing, however, keeping me from appearing on RAW next monday is DJ Wentworth. DJ knows I've been immobile for 7 years and wants to make sure I'm able to get in the ring again.
So, while you guys are watching DWF RAW next Monday, I'll be in Runnemede, New Jersey at Triton Wrestling League's training facility, to see if I still got what it takes (or if I even remember anything)
With that said, I'm off to finish packing and get some rest. I have a writer's meeting tomorrow to discuss DWF RAW's Road to Backlash and after that, I hop a train from 30th Street Philadelphia to Lindenwold, NJ, where I'll get picked up and taken to TWL. Here's hoping my future lines me up in a DWF ring
PS - I'm still gonna blog, though! I'll post something tomorrow while I'm on the train. I think I might write about working this one match in Brazil with ACP for Brain Dead Wrestling. Haha, fun story. Catch y'all later!

BLOG POST - Christian Paul is a jackass
Christian Paul is a jackass!
I could literally end this blog right here, but no, I must reiterate! Christian Paul is a gigantic asshole!
What are they teaching the kids in high schools nowadays. I mean, this runt is 16 and he's got nothing better to do backstage but constantly pull pranks!
Now, normally, I'm a fan of his work. Not his in-ring work, mind you, but his backstage pranks that he pulls on other superstars backstage. For example, about 2 weeks ago, we did a house show in Roselle Park, New Jersey. ACP passes out on a couch, trying to get a quick power nap before his segment that night (He has a nagging shoulder injury and has been seeing limited ring time). CP just finished jobbing to Lord Pistoia. I think he only went for about 2 minutes but that wasn't nearly enough to tire out the legendary prankster known as Christian Paul. And the sad thing is that, when myself and Raze walked passed ACP on the couch, and then saw on the chalk board that CP had to do a 2-minute job, we both knew that ACP was screwed. So Chris finds himself a large bowl...don't know where the fuck he found it at but he got it. And he does the "hand in water" trick to ACP. Poor Alex pisses himself. Here's the DWF Heavyweight Champion in the world...sleeping in his pissy pants. It was hilarious. Then ACP's wake up call didnt' work and he rushed out to the ring to cut his promo. He didn't take anytime to notice that he wet himself. So he's doing his "I'M ACP. I GET SCREWED ALL THE TIME" promo like usual and the fans are laughting hysterically at him because he has stains. When he got backstage, he chased Christian Paul out of the arena.
That was great, but Christian then got me this morning, the SOB!
So, we're at the SuperStars taping before doors opened and people are cutting these new "I AM CAW" commercials (The Rebel, Keller, ACP, Paul Sexton, Phy, Sir Magic, Lord Pistoia & Nick Wolf). BTW, I think Nick Wolf's coming back at the Rumble because he looked GREAT when I saw him. Anyway, even though someone may not be used at the show, DWF still wants everyone who's not on vacation or IR to arrive to the show two hours earlier for their "track" meetings. Track meetings for DWF is basically to keep everyone on track with what they are doing. Whether it's storyline or special promos or commercials. And today, I had to tell people about the way the dual-PPVs are gonna work (Bragging Rights and Elimination Chamber on the 12) So as I was explaining how the PPV would translate on YouTube, CP, who was sitting right behind me decides to pants me. Do you know how it feels to be standing in front of Keri Killjoy with nothing to cover your briefs!? It's troubling! To the point that I called my wife at the end of the meeting to say I love her. Then to make things worse, DJ WENTWORTH, our boss, walks in, sees me pantless in front of a sitting Keri Killjoy and says "I call next!" And everyone laughs! All because Christian Paul wants to be funny. I was so damn embarassed!
So CP, you can enjoy your glory for today...but it won't happen ever again!!!
