Saxon Hotel
Teddy Warren was in the confines of his hotel room and he wasn’t alone as his daughter Juliet was in the room with him. Kate Steele was out and about with the Gem Stones which left Teddy to watch after his 12 year old daughter. The two seemed to be in a dilemma as Juliet offers a long sigh glaring at a computer screen.
“Dad I can’t believe I have to do summer school… Like I need to have a life and I can’t go about repeating 7th grade history again…I want to do things such as maybe go to an amusement park or live my life”
Juliet keeps her eyes locked on the computer screen as Teddy walks over and sits down next to her.
“It can’t be all that bad Juliet...”
“Actually if I can pass a test I don’t have to sit here and do these online classes every day. This is supposed to be the best time of the year. I couldn’t wait for the Summer to begin so I could do stuff but now it’s all ruined because my teachers expect me to sit in front of a stupid computer… There’s no life in that!!!”
Teddy rolls his eyes as he looks back at Juliet.
“Yes because your summer was looking to be so promising with the Corona Virus taking over our country and you being forced to stay at home anyway. Seems like a TOTAL bummer. To be honest I don’t even know how you could fail at any class in general. I was Valedictorian of my class and of course my sister Dawn followed suit and was top of her class as well. You really must take things from your mother because she was quite the rebel in school. Hell she couldn’t even make it in wrestling school without getting kicked out…”
Juliet just shakes her head with a sigh as she keeps her eyes on the computer.
“Whatever it’s not like it matters. It’s only United States history. Maybe I should wait for mom to get back so she could help me with this…”
“Yes because asking your British mother to help you with American history sounds like SPLENDID idea. Look Juliet I am going to help you. It’s not as bad as you are making it out to be. I know you have it in you to pass the test you just have to sit down and think about things. If you spent more time focusing on your school work instead of focusing on swimming, partying, and hanging out with the Gem Stones so much you wouldn’t be in this position right now…”
“And what exactly is wrong with hanging out with mommy?! She is so cool and everything she does seems to be awesome. Sometimes I think she’s a lot cooler than you are…”
Teddy nods his head as he smiles back at his daughter.
“Well I did marry her so of course she is cool to me but just because she seems awesome in a lot of things doesn’t necessarily make her amazing at everything…”
Juliet just shrugs her shoulders as she looks back at her father.
“Mommy seems to have a handle on everything that I see. She’s an awesome rock star. She makes a lot of movie and is going to be in a movie soon. Also she is this super wrestler and she isn’t even that tall. In my eyes dad she seems way better than you…”
Teddy nods his head with a grin.
“She’s definitely cool and I am happy she could follow her dreams of being a great wrestler and having the band that she wanted. That’s all she ever talked about when we were dating one another. However just because she seems strong in those areas doesn’t mean she is strong at everything. Even though she seems like she has a handle on a lot of things the downfall is she really isn’t all that stable at times. She is also very impulsive and at times can be all over the place. That has always been her biggest downfall… She is athletically gifted but sometimes lacks when it comes to the thinking side of things…”
Teddy points at himself.
“When it comes to me however I am not as talented as your mother. I do know stuff about athletics but I am not on your mother’s level when it comes to wrestling. I still have much to learn and the same goes with music. Your mother is a top notch guitarist and can play any instrument that she touches. I am simply a drummer and if you ask a lot of people they will say that drummers aren’t really musicians.”
Juliet nods her head as she keeps her eyes locked on her father.
“See it just seems like mommy is way cooler…”
Teddy shakes his head.
“However in the areas where your mom seems really weak in those are my strengths. I may not be athletically gifted but I am academically smart. I am the one who basically manages the money for our family because Kate isn’t good with that. I am also the rational one although I do have some hiccups but I am able to think about situations before they come worse. I know it’s weird that mommy may not be around much but she has trusted me with you especially when it comes to learning academics. It may not seem that important now but having a good head on your shoulders will take you very far…”
“So were you thinking straight when you decided to wear makeup and dress up in those funny heels…”
“Honestly Juliet that might have been a bad decision. To be honest the only reason why I really did that was because mommy was hanging out with Griffin Hawkins a lot and I thought that if I acted like him it would make her more attracted to me. it was silly considering that she always had my back the entire time. Just like it was silly for me to constantly compare myself to J2H or to call out these people I had no business in doing so… I guess everything got to me. It got to me that mommy makes more money than me and people were questioning my ability to be a provider for our family…On top of that they even questioned if I could wrestle or do anything.”
Teddy keeps his eyes locked on his daughter as he speaks some more.
“It was the worse decision that I have ever made in my entire life. I know you were front and center when that man beat me down a few months ago but to be honest I had to question who I really am. Who do I want to be and who am I meant to be. There were so many questions that I didn’t quite have the answer for. Yet despite losing at wrestling there is one area where I know I could have been successful. It’s something I have always prided myself at since the day Kate and I adopted you…”
“And what is that exactly?!”
“Being your father… You are my world Juliet… You are everything to me and I have always been able to be there for my loved ones. Even when I personally am not feeling all that well I usually put my own feelings aside so those who are in my life can be happy… I did it for my sister Dawn, I did it for Kate, and now I can do it for you…”
Juliet can only sigh in return as she looks at her father in the eyes.
“If you constantly throw your own feelings to the side you will never be happy. You will always try to figure out who you are and that’s why that weird guy tried to question you… Look dad. I like that you care about me so much. You got me an Iphone 11, you got me all the video games I could have ever wanted but sometimes you just seem to go above and beyond. I know you say mommy may not be the smartest at times but she always told me of how her parents always tried to buy her happiness and it caused her to be the way she is…”
“I know pumpkin but I just want you to be happy…”
“What makes me happy is just you being here with me… Even though school work is totally lame! I think what would make you happy is really figuring out who you are and what you truly are about. You can’t live your life through everybody else because you yourself won’t ever be happy. You need to figure out what you really want and go about chasing after that. Once you figure that out nothing will be able to stop you…”
Teddy chuckles in return as he looks at his daughter.
“Oh do you really think that?! I appreciate having such an amazing daughter in my life. To be honest you are part of what makes me want to live for the better Juliet. I know you said that Corona Virus has been getting the best of your summer but I have really good news. This Summer won’t be that destroyed. We are going to be able to go on a cruise ship with SCW. It’s still going to happen which means fun days at sea. It may not mean like much but at least it’s as close as you can get to normalcy. However you really can’t get to go on that cruise unless you past this history test so maybe we can do it together…”
Juliet sighs in return.
“I HATE HISTORY!!!!!!”
“It can’t be that bad Juliet… Come on load up the test so we can see if we can just test your way out of Summer School Classes…”
Juliet just seems to be annoyed but she looks at her computer and loads up the test that the teacher had put up for them. If she was able to past this test she wouldn’t have to do the Summer online courses. Teddy smiles as he looks at the questions.
“Ok pumpkin first question Grant worked hard to get the blank Amendment passed which gave the right to vote to all citizens regardless of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. Is it the 13th 15th 17th or 18th Amendment?!”
“I HAVE NO IDEA!!!!”
Teddy smiles as he looks at his daughter.
“Okay let’s look at it like this we instantly know it’s a Reconstruction Amendment… Reconstruction meaning one of the Amendments that was established after we had won the Civil War. Those Amendments were 13th 14th and 15th… So Lincoln ended passing the 13th Amendment which did what?!”
“OHHHHH Freed the slaves… THE COUNTRY WAS AT WAR BECAUSE THEY WERE FIGHTING OVER SLAVES!!!”
“Exactly… So once the war was won the 13th Amendment was passed to get rid of slavery... We know Lincoln wasn’t in office that long because he was assassinated. So this guy named Andrew Johnson comes into office who was absolutely terrible so you know he wasn’t in office that long as he was going to get impeached. But with the 14th Amendment people needed equal rights and after that…”
“They got the right to vote with 15th Amendment!!!!”
“Exactly… You just really need to sit down and think out all of the questions. Verbally voice things out and I guarantee that you will be able to break down a question and definitely rule out some of the answers. As long as you really look through the questions I think you can pass this thing…”
An hour goes by and it is at that moment that they sit in front of the computer. Juliet jumps around excitedly as she looks at her father.
“OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!! DADDDDDDDDDDDD I managed to pass the test with flying colors… I got a 90!!!!!!!!!”
“JULIET YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS… NO SUMMER SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!”
The two them begin to jump around as they break out into a dance. It was the moments like this that Teddy loved more than life itself. It isn’t long before the door to their hotel room opens up and we can see Kate along with her cousin Prudence better known to the world as Ruby walk through the doors. Ruby sees the dancing excitedly as she yells at the top of her lungs.
“You two dancing is completely OUTRAGEOUS!!!!!”
Kate just looks at her husband as she seems confused.
“Why are you both so excited?!”
Teddy chuckles.
“Juliet passed her Summer School course. She basically just tested out of it. American history was a little rough for her but she managed to knock it out of the park!”
Kate seems disgusted as she looks back at her husband.
“American history meh…. That’s bollocks. I remember when my family had to take the citizenship test when we came to this country. It really wasn’t all that fun to be honest. How the hell am I supposed how long a US Senator serves?! I come from a country that his a Prime Minister, Parliament and of course the royal family. We also drive on the total right side of the road and you Americans are just wrong…”
Prudence smirks.
“Cheers Kate… They just tend to do things the wrong way…”
“Be proud that you passed though Juliet I definitely wouldn’t have been able to help you. That isn’t my thing though. Your father is definitely far better equipped to do this type of thing. My brain just doesn’t function to handle academics that well…”
Teddy nods his head as he looks at his daughter.
“I told you… That’s why we are married. We both are strong in very different areas and when you put together we are able to gel together…”
Juliet looks at her father as she walks over to him and hugs him as tightly as she can. She gazes up into his eyes.
“I appreciate you always having my back among other things but I honestly need to know what makes you happy. You always seem to just go above and beyond for everybody. You always compare yourself to others but you don’t need to do that… What makes you happy?! What are you really looking for out of life…”
Teddy could only nod his head as he looks back at Juliet before Kate looks at him in the eyes.
“That is actually a really good question. Sometimes I wonder about that myself. I know your daddy might seem to be a funny guy but he is the biggest Teddy bear. Sometimes I wish he wouldn’t sacrifice as much because he really deserves to have the best in life…”
“I guess you do have a point but I really don’t know what I want… That’s a hard question to have answered…”
Kate nods her head.
“Well maybe you should spend some time on trying to figure it out so you can be happy. Once you figure it out then you can go about doing what’s necessary so you could focus on yourself…”
Prudence looks at the married couple as she giggles in return.
“That all sounds like a great idea but for now can we just go get something to eat… I think we could all use it considering Diamond had us going crazy with all of the stunts she wants us to pull when we eventually have a concert…”
“Hey we must always be ready… There’s nothing silly in trying to prep as early as possible for what’s to come down the pipeline. Might as well get things going and a routine in motion…”
Teddy laughs as he looks at everyone.
“That is OUTRAGEOUS!!! But you know what isn’t… Getting a good meal! Come on Juliet let’s beat these slowpokes to the restaurant!”
With that him and Juliet quickly sprint out of the hotel room and it isn’t long until the Steele women follow suit.
On Camera
Hello everyone. I just want to say from the bottom of my heart that it honestly feels great to be able to compete on Climax Control again. The last time I was in the ring for Climax Control it was in the middle of the ring standing across the ring of my wife and Ben Jordon in a huge match strange bedfellows tag team match. I was on the losing side of things and that seems to be a common theme for the past couple of months. To be quite honest I am having a really hard trying to figure out who I am as a person. Wrestling hasn’t been going as well as it should have been going. I have dropped match after match. At first it was the match against Austin James Mercer and it carried to the match with Tony Thorn and it went even further than that when I just lost in this Mixed Tag Team match.
What happened?!
I truly feel like I am at a lost for words because I just don’t know about anything anymore. I stood in the ring with Tony Thorn and he beat me to a pulp. I barely even know who I am anymore and I feel ashamed that he pointed it out to me. I would be lying if I said that it wasn’t affecting me but the truth is it has had a major impact on me. I really don’t know who I am and it’s eating away at the very core of my soul.
I thought that by being this family man I could find my center. I thought that being there for my wife and my daughter is what I was really about this entire time. Don’t get me wrong I love my family more than life itself and being a family man is truly a blessing. Not many people in this world can say that they are living the dream of having a beautiful wife and a daughter. I can say that I have more than I could imagine.
In addition to the family I am pretty well off financially, we live in a beautiful mansion. Life is good but yet as amazing as all of it sounds I still feel like there is a void in my life that hasn’t been filled yet. There is just an emptiness that I am longing to have filled with something. What exactly is that thing I am looking for?! To be honest I really don’t know. I thought it was because I wasn’t popular enough. When I first came into wrestling I was looked at as being nothing more than a moron. I was called a joke of a wrestling personality who could never emerge past anything besides being his wife’s megaphone.
A silly idiot who would come down to the ring chanting USA over and over again despite being married to a British woman! Looking back at those days it does sound really silly. When I joined SCW I didn’t know what to make of anything. At first I walked in the same path. I was a total nothing. A nobody who would forever be in his wife’s shadows. Yet I guess I saw her constantly hanging about Griffin Hawkins and I think I lost it with her having a male best friend. Griffin was always one of my biggest supporters and I shouldn’t have gotten jealous over my wife and her career as a guitarist in a band.
I should have been better for her. I should have been supportive but I just couldn’t. I just remembered the days of how we both came up through being in the same bands. It was always Kate on the guitar and me on the drums. We were always together and as Kate was advancing to becoming greater in just about everything that she has done. I felt like I was getting left in the dust.
I love my wife but I just didn’t want to get left behind. That is when I got drastic. I started to change my attitude. I started to get more vicious and violent. The fans may have loved it, hell even the owners were digging it. I was really standing out as being one of the next biggest stars in the company. People were saying I had a future as being this big time star. I felt it wasn’t enough and that’s when I took it to another level. My jealousy of Griffin Hawkins made me want to become him. I wore the makeup, I put on the heels, and I tried to establish myself in my own band just so I could one up him.
I didn’t know my antics would take me to a different place altogether. I had no idea that hatred would start to rise from everybody else on the roster and that would win me a most hated man of the year award. Not only would I win it but I did so by a landslide. That is crazy how I had built myself up. I thought I had everything especially when I won the Roulette Championship. Nobody could tell me anything. I had the championship, I had the publicity, and I was surrounded by a quarter of women in the Gem Stones.
Despite having everything deep down I felt like I didn’t have anything because I had a void in my life. The same void I had before feeling jealous, to after being jealous, to feeling like I gained that respect. It never filled that void. I still felt the same which meant it was something much deeper than what I thought it was. It had to go beyond that of wrestling.
That’s when I knew after being such an asshole where i basically lost everything that wasn’t who I really was. I thought that by going back to getting my daughter and wife back I would find what I am looking for but that wasn’t the case either. Maybe this entire time Tony Thorn was right about me. I am struggling trying to figure out who I am. It’s hard to capture who I really am or what I am meant to do. I am still having trouble with that very question to this day.
I know I can call out J2H but maybe I was jealous for everything he had and me wanting it for myself.
There’s so much stuff that needs to be answered but it’s going to take some time to get there. First I need to get my wrestling career back on track and I have a huge chance at trying to get back onto the positive swing of things by stepping into the ring this week. I have a match against Agostino Romano and I know he is going to want to give me as much of a fight as he possibly can. He came into this company immediately setting the bar by beating El Dark. That may not mean that much but first impressions speak volumes for how people can perceive you. It builds perception and after winning that match it seems like he has sprung his way up the card into facing me.
That’s a big time jump and I respect you for being so dedicated to the sport. Yet here is my thing I couldn’t have asked for a better opponent because the man I am facing is a race car driver. He makes a livelihood from being a jokester and trying to get people to laugh. There isn’t any stunt he won’t pull and he lives and thrives for the interaction of the fans.
That sounds like how I used to be when I came out holding a megaphone as I managed my wife. I did huge stunts in order to win the crowd over but once I did that I knew I couldn’t ever be taken seriously in the ring. That’s why I pulled back on those antics. If the fans love me or hate me that’s their prerogative but I am not in this to be a joke. I am looking to emerge as being the next big thing and truly living up to potential. I can only do that by beating people like you so I can further my own name in this industry.
You might have been doing this for a bit but I can’t afford to lose to somebody like you especially when I am trying to build momentum for myself. To be honest we couldn’t be any more alike. You seem to be quite the comedian and that’s exactly how I got my start in this business. On top of that we are physically identical when it comes to size and stature. It is honestly going to feel good to be in the ring with somebody who is an equal.
Here’s the thing about wrestling though. You might have had a strong background in acing and have done so many things in that other sport. Everything isn’t fast out of the gate in this industry. Sometimes you just need to build yourself up with wins chaining them together to build your brand. As a racer you might expect to quickly fly high or do something OUTRAGEOUS in order to win the crowd over but wrestling doesn’t always work like that. Sometimes it’s all about the smallest of steps.
I personally was knocked down a lot but this is when I finally start to get back on track. This is when I prove to everyone that I can live up to my potential. This is when I send a message to J2H, Caleb Storms and whoever has their eye on me.
Come climax Control Teddy Warren will do everything he can to fix what’s missing. I don’t expect to find it overnight but I will build slowly to it.
I really wish you the best of luck but come this week it’s my time to shine.
See you in the ring.
