Journal 15

Happy new years to all. It seems that it gets longer
and longer between writings, but I assure you I have good
excuses. The holidays were very fun- lots of presents
and a few trips to Mt. Hood for some sledding excitement
with the family!!! Of course with the winter season brings
the slowing of my wrestling schedule, so there hasn't
been too terribly much traveling or wrestling lately,
but I did take the time to make as many contacts as I
could. One of the great things that turned out from this
is my involvement in the 2001 ECWA Super 8 tournament.
The tournament is set for Feb. 24th in Wilmington, Delaware
and it sounds like it should be an incredible event. I've
had a few opportunities to talk with ECWA promoter Jim
Kettner and he comes across as a guy who knows what he's
doing. I predict a very memorable weekend and dare I say-
a Super 8 tournament win...
This past weekend had it's share of good and bad. I finally
went back on the road wrestling in Surrey in what I felt
as a fantastic match against Chance Beckett and Disco
Fury in a triple threat match. I also had the privilege
of wrestling Christopher Daniels who is as good a wrestler
as they say- actually better. Hopefully he gets a chance
in WCW in the near future because everyone will be in
for some really creative, entertaining matches. The bad
news of the weekend was that one of our ECCW brothers,
Havoc suffered a broken femur in his match. We all went
to the hospital after the show to see how everything was.
Everyone was hoping that it was only a dislocation, but
the x-rays unfortunately showed otherwise. Now the question
is will Havoc be able to return to the ring? Of course
since this just happened less than one week ago everything
is still up in the air. ECCW is already planning a benefit
show for Havoc and his family to help with the medical
expenses. I have my fingers crossed with the hopes that
he makes a full recovery and can return to the ring.
If there was anything positive to come out of that evening
it was seeing all the wrestlers in the emergency room
waiting to hear about Havoc. I've often said that the
crew in ECCW are like brothers and this was shining proof.
Everyone was concerned about the situation and very supportive
to Havoc and his family. It was a good feeling to be associated
with people like that.
Well, i'd better head out of here for now. For those of
you interested I have a new t-shirt out. I should have
the graphic up on the website before too long. It's has
designs on both the front and back. Okay then...until
next time- OH MY GOD, Peter Criss left KISS... well..
that does it for rock-n-roll....
Maybe it's time I start thinking about cutting this hair
of mine, getting a desk job, and being a productive member
of society for once...sigh.....not a chance :)
