APW ... Toronto ... (o2a)

[Jessie Blair]

A yellow taxi stops in front of the headquarter from the in Chicago based wrestling promotion known as Action Packed Wrestling. For the woman who has travelled all the wide way from Scotland to Toronto it is basically the start of a new life for her. Many things have happened during the last 2 years in her life, many things that haven’t been something you want to happen to you. But as it is usual in life, things are never going to happen the way you want them to happen. Life if full of tragedy and pain and the young woman inside of this car has witness many tragedies and a lot of pain in her life. Some was self inflicted because of her own stubbiness, others have been inflicted by other people who wanted to ruin her life.

The blond hair woman let out a loud sigh as she get pulled out of her thoughts as the voice from the taxi driver can be heard. She turns her head to the left and looks the man in the eyes. She wasn’t able to understand what he was saying so the young woman ask him …

“Sorry, I was a bit daydreaming … what have you said?”

“That we have arrived at your destination. This is the headquarter from APW …”

The woman turns her head to the side to look out of the window once again to see the big and tall building in front of her. A smile appears on her face as she turns her head back to the taxi driver.

”Thanks a lot, how much do I own you?

“87 Dollars”

“Alright, … the women reach in the back pocket of her blue jeans, the legs of the jeans have been cut off at the high of her knees, and pulls out 90 Dollars … The rest is for you”

“Thank you Miss, should I help you with your packing?

“No thanks, I am a strong girl.”

“Haha … alright Miss then I wish you a nice day.”

“Thanks … and bye”

The young woman smiles and opens the door of the taxi, she swings her legs out of it and grab her backpack … then she steps out of the car and looks up at the building. It is indeed very tall and big … it really looks like the headquarter of a professional wrestling company as far as she can tell. The last headquarter of this sort she has seen during her days in New York.


The back door of the car opens and a blond haired woman swings her right leg out of the car, followed by the 2nd one. Her head is getting raised in the air as she looks up …

”Wow … this building is huge … reminds me a bit of New York.”

The smile grows bigger as she put her back on her shoulders before she starts to walk in the direction of the main entrance. After a short walk she arrives at the gates, the doors open automatically as she steps through the frame … and then she has arrived … APW … A new chance to start new … The young woman let out another sigh and walks over to the receptionist who stands behind his table. The young man smiles as the blond haired woman comes closer to him and then he greets her.

“Miss Blair, it is nice to see you again.”

“Ohm … yes … nice to … see you again.”

Jessie says and raise her right hand to rub her forehead. She looks a bit confused at the young man as she has never seen him before … at least not her, even when he has seen her before, but it wasn’t her … confused? … Damn me too … Anyway … lets continue.

“You got a meeting with Miss Wolfe as it looks like at 4 PM, which is in about 1 hour. You can of course take the elevator up to her office already and wait in front of her office till the time for your meeting arrives with her.”

“Yeah, I am a bit early … but I wanted to get something to drink anyway … It was a long flight.”

“Great, over there is the restaurant, Miss Blair.”

“Ah great, thanks a lot.”

“Was a pleasure Miss Blair, Goodbye.”

The man says and then Jessie turns around to walk in the direction of the restaurant. She enters the local and walks over to the corner to order a glass of orange juice before she sat down on the only empty table in the restaurant. JB takes a nip from her juice and leans back a bit while her thoughts starts to drift away … again ….









A short time later, or was it a long time later? Who knows … Anyway … she suddenly get interrupted in her thoughts, get pulled back to reality once again as she can hear somebody talking to her. It is …

[Kenisha Williams]

...Human Crack in the Flesh. The last of the best. One word to describe him? Is SPECTACULAR. Yes! Otherwise known as the APW Messiah himself... Jay Crack. He was standing across the table from her. Dressed in what he would consider casual wear for this evening. A fine navy blue and white Armani suit combo. His blue bandana wrapped around his forehead with the knot tied on his forehead. Dark charcoal black shades on his face as he looked across the table at this woman who is seemingly in some kind of trance or maybe some kind of day dream. His hands resting on an empty chair at the table that she was sitting at. He was leaning forward and looking at her. An eyebrow raised with a bit of confusion on his face. He could tell she was off in "La La Land" at the moment, but Jay took it upon himself to bring her back down to the planet Earth. And the words that she was hearing were...

"Ummm... Miss...? I'm talking to you... Is this seat taken...? Do you mind if I sit here with you? Do you speak any English...? Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth...?"

Of course, he wasn't speaking in a disrespectful tone. He didn't know this woman. He knew nothing about her. He figured he'd keep her company cause she had a look on her face that read "Lost Puppy." And who better to be the "Welcoming Committee" than the Messiah himself? He stood there patiently awaiting a response from her...

"Hello there...? You awake Miss...? You mind if I join you...?"

[Jessie Blair]

„Hm? ...“

The woman known as the Queen of Hardcore … Jessie Blair looks up from her orange juice to notice a young man in a very unique sense of style standing next to her. She blinks a few time with her eyes before she response to the question of the man.

“Yes … I am awake …and sure if you want to. Sit down …”

[Kenisha Williams]

A smile graced his face as he gave her a nod. Pulling out the chair that he was standing beside, he took a seat across from the woman. Leaning forward, he placed his elbows on the table top. Looking at the woman from across the table, he introduced himself...

"Hello there. I am Jay Crack. I seen you sitting over here by yourself and couldn't help but think of how lonely you looked over here all by your lonesome. I don't believe we've met, nor do I believe I recognize you. So... I figured I'd come over here and offer you some company. Who might you be miss?"

He awaited a response from the woman.

[Jessie Blair]

„I am Jessie Blair ... it is nice to meet you. … Hmm … do you mind if I ask if you are working here? Or if you are a guest like myself around here? Because if I see right you are wearing some designer clothes.”

JB ask as she notice the expensive looking Armani suit that Jay is wearing. Not something that everybody can buy as the cost for such a luxurious clothing item are astronomic for an average person.

[Kenisha Williams]

"It's nice to meet you Miss Blair. Well... Actually..."

Jay nodded his head.

"I do work here. I pride myself on working here in APW. I kind of figure myself to be a Messiah of sorts when it comes to how APW was prior to my arrival and how APW has grown since I've came here. The suit you see me wearing is what I usually wear. I always want to look my best even on a bad day. Not saying today is a bad day, just saying I like to look my very best no matter what."

He shrugged his shoulders. Jay doesn't feel like he over does his wardrobe. He didn't know why others didn't dress like this. Could they not afford it? Wrestling was a hobby of his, compared to his business outside of this sport. He didn't know.

"Don't know about others, but I like this. You say you're a guest Miss Blair? What brings you to APW?"

[Jessie Blair]

“Just work … I am trying to get my foot back into the wrestling business after an two year forced … well let it call break. Anyway … I got a metting with Miss Wolfe in a about 50 minutes to talk about my open contract that is still running with APW. Well … at least I hope I still have an open contract running as I have worked here under the old management … sort off …”

Well not Jessie … but Jessie …. Ok sounds confusing? It is.

[Kenisha Williams]

A smile graced his face as he nodded his head. A potential Rose? He liked the sound of that. APW needs more Roses.

"Hopefully you still have an active contract here in APW. We need all the help we can get here. It'd be unfortunate if you didn't have a contract with APW. I never met the previous management that was here but I can't say I have much respect for owners who kind of just ran out on their company."

You could say Jay didn't like how the original owners left such a business down in the dumps like they did. He didn't know them personally, but on the outside looking in... It didn't leave a good vibe with him.

"If your contract is null and void because of the previous management's departure, you could always sign up a new one and still work here. There's no harm in getting another contract drawn up for you. Not that I know of anyways. I'm sure Ms. Wolfe wouldn't have a probelm with that either. We need more of a roster. Having you onboard will only help out our Rose division."

[Jessie Blair]

“Oh well at least I hope that I could be a help for the Rose Division as my in ring skills are a bit rusty to call it like that. I didn’t have wrestled since quite some while and I fear that I am not up to the standard that female wrestlers have nowadays.”

Jessie takes a nip from her orange juice before she continues to speak.

”So the question if the new management want to hire me is really unclear if it comes to an answer.”

[Kenisha Williams]

"I don't think you have anything to worry about Miss Blair. If you were once a great wrestler and you simply just have been taking a break... They should hire you on spot. Star power will be on the minds of the boss. They will see nothing but star power when they see you."

A smile on his face as he gave her a nod.

"And hey... If you happen to be a little rusty, there's nothing wrong with that. That's how you dust the ring rust off. By getting back in that ring and sharpening your skills until you're back on you A-game."

[Jessie Blair]

“Yeah, I guess that is what I have to do. Getting back in the ring and beat up some people. Or getting beaten up whatever will be the chase … “

Jessie reach for her glass with orange juice and takes another sip from it.

“By the way speaking of getting back in the business … you mended that you are working for APW. As what exactly as GM or member of the stuff? Or are you a wrestler?”

[Kenisha Williams]

"You could say... They call me a wrestler. I think a more appropriate title for yours truly would be 'savior.' But, yeah, on a technical level... They call me a wrestler."

He shrugged his shoulders. He was a wrestler. Jay thought highly of himself though. He thought real highly of himself. He didn't call himself the "APW Messiah" for nothing.

"Not to toot my own horn or boast... I would like to mention that I'm one half of APW's Tag Team Champions. I'm not carrying the gold on me right now, but I am one half of the champions. Along with my partner in crime, a little firecracker named Nattie Roxx. We've pretty much dominated the tag team division."

[Jessie Blair]

"Oh that is cool. Then I guess you two must be really good when you are able to dominate the competition like that. Pretty impressive … But Tag Team Wrestling is not really my thing I am more a fan of Hardcore matches … properly because of my lack of actual wrestling skills …”

[Kenisha Williams]

"No, no, no... Don't down yourself like that Miss Blair. Don't down yourself like that. Hardcore preferences do not equal a lack of skill. I mean, maybe back in the States, yeah... But being Hardcore and lacking skills are two totally different things. Rookies lack skills. Take a look at the Japanese. The Japanese has skills out the wahzoo... And they still got skills beyond most Americans. I'm not trying to say anything about the States being garbage, you just have to look for what's not on television. 'Cause the majority of that is garbage."

Jay shook his head and just laughed to himself. Obviously, talking about the works of Mr. VKM. He wouldn't be caught dead working for that loser.

"Now, I'm sure you've got plenty of skill to match you're hardcore prowess. You're making a return to wrestling, right? Tell me some of your old war stories out there."

[Jessie Blair]

“There is not much to talk about. I have wrestled most of my time in Europe and in Japan. Mostly in Japan as I wanted to make a name of my own and in Europe this was not possible at least not to the among as it is in Japan. So I travelled to Japan and joined a Hardcore wrestling promotion … I learned a lot there … how to withstand pain, how to use a hard hitting style … and just be hardcore … in a sense that could make you afraid. Which properly can be seen if you watch the crazy matches I have been a part of. “

”Japanese Deathmatch, bare wire ropes… electrocuted bare wire … glass … tables … all this stuff. Damn I can still feel the pain in my back when I remember how I get Powerbombed on a piece of wood wrapped in bare wire … that shit has hurt and I think I still got some scars from this move.”

[Kenisha Williams]

Jay nodded his head. He was impressed. Not too many women that aren't from Japan could handle such things they do over yonder. He couldn't imagine how hard it must have been for her there.

"Wow. Must've been rough for you Miss Blair. I've never been that way on business. I've visited the country before and have enjoyed a show or two. Some of the insane things they do there.... Whoo..."

He shook his head.

"I don't know how they do it. I could probably handle that too, but hardcore style is not really my thing. I never really could get into that stuff. Never really was my kind of style. I got a lot of respect for people that can handle that. I've seen quite a lot of that back home from some people who actually have talent and enjoy all that extreme type of stuff."
