Backstory. Samuel McPherson's first ever singles match. 4CW Adrenaline 31. Cleveland, Ohio. September 23rd 2015.It was before the match between Lord Raab and Chris Madison that Samuel McPherson was forced to face against Chris Madison to show Raab that he wasn't a pussy and eventually after all the assaults they've done on each other, even to a point of Samuel assaulting Chris, he eventually accepted the challenge and went to face against Chris Madison one on one while Lord Raab was missing due to him leaving Samuel and Henry after a loss in a tag team tournament.
But it was all do or die for when it came to Samuel's first ever match and most people really didn't think Samuel had any chance of winning because of the lack of experience in the ring and the stamina was a cause for concern back then as well. Henry sees so much nerves in Samuel that he's shivered up to a corner and he speaks to him.
Henry Losak: “I know how hard this must be for you to go through this match with Chris, but be sure no matter what happens, I'll still be proud of you. Just treat it like Raab is in the ring with you.”
Samuel said nothing because obviously there's not much he could say and he had no choice, but to wrestle against Chris Madison in Cleveland, Ohio like he was forced to wrestle without Raab around, but it was due to Samuel attacking Chris with vicious shots that made the match happen along with the build up to Chris Madison and Lord Raab in a Lions Den match.
With a lot of nerves written on his face, Samuel realised that no matter what happens, he wasn't planning to let Lord Raab down at all whatsoever, especially the lack of trust Raab had for Samuel back then where he practically didn't care enough to train him or acknowledge that Raab would be around for him. Even Henry thought that Raab could turn up for the match tonight. Samuel walked towards the ring without Lord Raab being there by his side that he really felt off about this match and stands waiting in the ring for Chris Madison who had a lot of cheers and hype around him making Samuel feeling nervous even more for the upcoming match.
The bell rang from ringside as both Chris and Samuel tie up and Chris hits Samuel with a very stiff elbow to the face of Samuel before he does a kick before Samuel moves out of the way and squeezes Chris with a bear hug very hard it was before Chris Madison lets himself go and kicks him before Samuel gathers himself together to take Madison down with a massive spear towards his ribs out of nowhere which shocked the crowd with Henry applauding Samuel for his tactics.
As they were out of the ring, Henry reminded Samuel on what will happen if there's a ten count as he grabs Chris by his hair and throws him into the ring and waits for Chris Madison to get up. Once he did, he goes and does another spear, but the most experienced Chris Madison moved out of the way by leapfrogging Samuel over him and receives a Yakuza kick to the outside. Samuel was out of the ring and before he gets into the ring with standing up very quickly, Madison does a suicide dive from the turnbuckle and lands on top of Samuel on the outside.
Chris Madison suddenly starts to mount Samuel with elbow shots to his face as the countdown began for both opponents to get into the ring as Madison lifts Samuel up to his feet as Samuel catches Madison with elbow to the gut and a big lariat to drop Chris Madison on the floor out on ringside. He even places his big boot on Madison's face while the count went down to four as it seems like Samuel's not even slightly bothered with the count at all nor was Chris Madison.
They were doing lots of different moves in the match together as there's a ton of hatred between the pair of them and from the point of using the spinebuster on the table, Madison was dominating until Samuel blocks the brain buster move with using his feet to stop Madison from doing what he does and instead suplex's Chris right across the other side of the ring. Samuel got up straight away as so did Chris Madison and you can tell Samuel despite having a fairly even contest was still nervous on wrestling by himself without Raab with him and before you know it, Samuel does a power slam on Madison and tries to go for the pin, but Madison kicks out at a two count. Samuel grabs Madison's hair to stand him up and does a few clotheslines from the turnbuckle before he grabs Madison to squeeze him again for a bear hug.
It took a while for Chris Madison to get out of it as he does with placing his elbow shots to Samuel's face and temporary blinds him as it lands in his eye. Again Chris Madison dominates Samuel with vicious kicks to Samuel and even using his knees to Samuel's face along with doing various moves on him, even pinning Samuel for the three count, but Samuel kicked out of a three count and as soon as Samuel got out of Chris's submission move, he grabs Chris by his throat and chokeslams him on the mat and goes for the pin fall before Chris kicks out of the three count.
Which turns Samuel to be frustrated with it as he turns to choke the life out of Madison and seems to draining him down, but Madison fought back and even does a suplex to Samuel which the crowd got fired up when Madison did before he Madison tries to do his finisher before Samuel puts the brakes on putting his arms on the ropes as he tries to set Madison up for a Tombstone piledriver, but Madison gets free to go down Samuel's back and he lands his other finisher of the codebreaker and pins Samuel for the three count to win the match.
It was something Samuel knew he didn't want to do again and Henry saw it and he was proud of him, but disappointed that Raab didn't come to save him or anything like that as it was obvious the tag team loss got to Raab really bad. Henry waits for Samuel to get changed from his locker room and they leave the arena together as there's nothing else left for them to explain or do with Madison because it's Lord Raab's business to take care of from then on out.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Second to last training day in a one on one match. Tokyo, Japan. Thursday 19th May.It's been long hard four days of work for Samuel to make sure he's fully prepared to face against Ben Jordan. Henry even managed to go to America and bring the DVD disc of Samuel's last singles match he had against Chris Madison back in 4CW a few months ago just to spot the mistakes of where he went wrong, but there was going to be a reason why Samuel wasn't going to train on Friday as only Raab and Henry know why Samuel's not training.
But he's had to wrestle different people, even Raab at one point to get some of the moves down. You could tell inside of the ring that Samuel's nervous as hell to be alone in the ring and keeps looking at Raab to say when is he going to come in and it cost Samuel more ways than not as he keeps getting thrown around with back suplexes and backbreaker moves from the other Japanese wrestler he's wrestling with as Henry speaks.
Henry Losak: “Sorry Samuel, but you have to wrestle on your own without Raab wrestling in the ring. Raab will be tied up with handcuffs.”
Samuel realises that Raab was going to be at ringside to support Samuel on, but not to interrupt the match which he couldn't and wouldn't do right now compared to the past so Samuel went right back to focus as Henry decides to tie Raab's hands around the ringpost just for Samuel to get the feeling of what the match will be like and the guy in the ring was mimicking all the moves Ben Jordan does in the ring.
It wasn't something the guy usually does, but it was a way for Samuel to prepare some of the moves he's about to face against when it comes to Ben Jordan, realising that he's no joke and it actually didn't bother Raab one bit on being tied around the turnbuckle because at least he was there to support Samuel on with wrestling. Samuel focuses on what's going on as he does a massive spinebuster on the guy and decides to mount him with punches and kicks to his face, pleasing both Raab and Henry.
The guy then knocked Samuel backwards with a punch of his own when they got up, but Samuel kicked the Japanese guy to his gut before he sets him up for a tombstone piledriver right on the mat itself. Raab did teach Samuel a few moves or two since he had to rework Samuel's in ring skills and then Samuel grabs the guy by the throat and chokeslam's him down on the mat as he looks at Raab and Henry as Samuel comes to Raab's rescue, but Henry stops and speaks.
Henry Losak: “Sam no, Raab is tied up like this because he has to during your match. Raab is fine, hell he's not even phased or angry about it.”
Lord Raab: “Sam please, don't worry about me, worry about the match.”
Samuel nodded as he paid attention to Raab's advice on the nerves and the fears of wrestling on his own, but he had to do it as he was nearly attacked from behind again which got Raab and Henry angry at Samuel for not paying attention as Raab speaks.
Lord Raab: “PAY FUCKING ATTENTION TO THE MATCH.”
Samuel was down on the ground and hear Raab shouting at him because of being distracted, but he finally gets up and does a few moves of his own like doing the brainbuster on the Japanese wrestler and he picks him up again to do a neckbreaker move, building on his stamina there which Henry applauded since he hadn't seen Samuel do that before and then he gets the guy down with a powerslam before he locks in the finisher which is called Hunting Death which is a guillotine choke as he's focused on making the guy quit the match, but he manages to get up and does one of Ben's finishers which is a Lundablower powerbomb.
The Japanese wrestler was giving Samuel a hard time and it was good because all the moves he does will just give Samuel some experience and a great one as well as he waits for Samuel to get up before he does and grabs the guy in a bearlock hold, holding the Japanese wrestler known as Kento Maeda to squeeze him out, but he places both of his hands on Samuel's face to let go of him as Samuel attacks him from behind with an axe handle on Kento's back before he locks in the submission hold of the guillotine and the guy eventually passes out as Samuel did manage to pay attention in the end to the match as he's been training all week to be on his own and Henry undoes the rope from the turnbuckle to let Raab go.
Samuel then goes to sit down on the bench and drinks some water that's left out for him and the Japanese guy goes away and Henry speaks.
Henry Losak: “I think we need to work Samuel more in training on Saturday since it's not far from where we live now, don't you agree Raab?”
Lord Raab: “Yes I do because he lost focus during the practice match. Samuel, I don't want you to do this on Sunday to be scared of wrestling without me because it will eventually cost you the match like it did with the match you had against Chris Madison.”
Henry Losak: “Raab may have been a little harsh, but he was trying to help you. Also there's a reason why you aren't training tomorrow and I pretty much think you should know what date it is coming up. Raab knows and I know, but we go back into the apartment together and leave you both to discuss the plans, but be sure Samuel that you will do a lot more training on Saturday to get you ready for Ben Jordan.”
Henry, Raab and Samuel gather their things up together and they leave the training school they hired out for training and they walk back to the apartment together as when they got in, Raab and Samuel went straight in their room, while Henry went back to the hotel with the rest of the SCW wrestlers were. They lay in bed together and Samuel looks at Raab, wondering what he has planned for the day tomorrow as he speaks as he takes his shirt and trousers off as he speaks to Samuel.
Lord Raab: “You don't know do you?”
Samuel McPherson: “Naarrp.”
Lord Raab: “Remember this time last year that I proposed to you on getting married? Well on the day I did, you are wrestling so we obviously couldn't do it on Sunday, but tomorrow, we are going on a beach together right here in Japan and of course we'll talk about the match against Ben Jordan, but we also talk about the love we've had for each other since last year. Henry also hired out a beach house for us so we can spend real good time together you know. That's why I said no training tomorrow.”
Samuel McPherson: “Yaarrp.”
Samuel remembers as he nods at the idea Raab had before he goes to snog Raab and makes Raab fall on the bed as Samuel takes his shirt off also along with his trousers and he goes to turn the lights off and gets in the same bed with Raab and they did what couples did on playing with their private parts and then went off to sleep afterwards to save the good bits for tomorrow.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spending quality time at the beach. Onjuku, Japan. Friday 20th May.It was a day where Lord Raab thought to spend time with Samuel while away from being in America and spending the special day together where on Sunday, it'll be a year that Lord Raab proposed to Samuel on getting married. If there's two days of the year Raab never forgets, it's the 22nd of May and 25th of December. Those days were really special to him as he became a bit of a better man as they lie on the beach late at night where the weather is cooler and plus not having many people around helps Raab and Samuel relax on the beach as Samuel lies on Raab's torso as both of them are topless.
They've been there since before the sun went down as there's been a lot of kissing and hugging in their hired beach house and then decide to come out and get something to eat before laying on the beach and Raab looks at the waves coming by and he speaks with Samuel laying on his chest.
Lord Raab: “Lovely day, isn't it Samuel?”
Samuel McPherson: “Yaarrp.”
Lord Raab: “I know what you are thinking about, the day I proposed to you. That is a day I will never ever forget. It took me a lot of guts to ask you to marry me as I never thought I could love anybody, let alone you. I don't say it often to you, but I love you with all of my heart.”
Samuel nods as Raab hadn't even talked about wrestling all day because it seemed like it was more or less forgotten as it was their special day and it's a shame they couldn't do it on the day because of Samuel wrestling, but a couple of days before was good enough and Samuel went to kiss Raab's cheek and he strokes his chest as Raab speaks again.
Lord Raab: “I lay here, looking at the moon and think a lot of our future as to what I said last year on us getting married which we did on Christmas day and I've promised you a lot of things that I've delievered on, except for one thing Samuel and that's mainly because of my fear of women, it's having a kid. I need to be confident with women to do it you know.”
Samuel McPherson: “Naarrp.”
Lord Raab: “Don't you want a baby in our lives?”
Samuel McPherson: “Yaarrp.”
Lord Raab: “Oh I see, it's because you think I'm going to cheat on you, isn't it?”
Samuel nodded as he fiddled with Raab's chest as he places his ear against his heart as it was in a little bit of a state from what Samuel hears, but he didn't care as it seemed like Raab was far too happy to be pissed off with Samuel and Raab nods to understand him and speaks.
Lord Raab: “Sam, I wouldn't have married you if I wasn't committed to you and it might be a step too far, but if I can't get over my fears of women, maybe if you are up for it that you could bring a baby to us or we could adopt one. That's what I wanted to talk about today or one of the things anyway. So Sam, if I can't get over my fears of woman by the end of June, would you um find a woman to create a baby?”
Samuel McPherson: “Yaarrp.”
Samuel nods as he relaxes for a bit and Raab kisses Samuel's head for the love he has for him and Raab strokes his back and sees Samuel cuddling a little tighter on Raab, feeling the nerves about something, but Raab knew what it was straight away without attempting to ask Samuel as they hear the waves and the moon being bright over the sea and he speaks.
Lord Raab: “Sam, I know how stressed you are about the match against Ben Jordan, but everything is going to be alright. I have a lot of faith in you that you can do well. I was sorry that I wasn't there for your first ever singles match against Chris Madison, but I will be for your second one because I want to see you succeed. Don't be afraid of failing this singles match because you will learn from it.”
Samuel McPherson: “Naarrp.”
Raab felt a tear from Samuel's face, seeing the amount of fear of the match on Sunday and he strokes him a little bit more and Raab speaks as Samuel hugs Raab tighter.
Lord Raab: “You are going to be fine. It's not like you are going to do matches like this all the time. Hell, we are teaming together next match onwards. It's just something you have to do. I know Jamie Dean would've been a better opponent for you in my opinion as he's got less experience, but you know there's a time when less experienced wrestlers have won matches before an.........”
Samuel McPherson: “Naarrp, naarrp.”
Lord Raab: “Yes Sam god damn it, you have to do this match for us. It is scary and you fear you'll fail again like with Chris Madison, but the difference between that match and this one is you've wrestled Ben Jordan before in a tag team match and that already should gain you an advantage over the match you had against Chris. Please Sam, you know I'll be out there supporting you. I want you to be a real man on having the guts to face Ben Jordan otherwise our tag team title match would be just a dream, do I make myself clear?”
Samuel McPherson: “Yaarrp.”
Samuel lets go of Raab for a little while as he sees the waves being quite heavy as he looks for a little bit before turning to Raab.
Lord Raab: “Ben Jordan seems to be too nice for this business and I never forget the things he said to me and it's time for us to piss them off because they have been too nice and we need to show them the force of our anger and beat the living shit of them or you will beat the living shit out of Ben.”
Samuel sits up from Raab's chest and pounds his fists together and nods on the reaction of what Raab is saying and he looks at Raab for a while, seeing the bit of anger on Raab's face because of Samuel saying no to the match, acting like he was a bit of a wimp, but at the same time happy because of what Raab did a year ago and he turns to being completely happy and speaks.
Lord Raab: “You'll do a lot of training tomorrow without being distracted and wrestle properly like I know you can and then we'll see you beat Ben Jordan to shreds. You need to have faith in yourself and think about how often you'll have matches like this. After all, it's only your second time of doing a one on one match, something these fucking idiots in SCW don't know about. Anyway, lets go inside and have some you know what fun.”
Samuel McPherson: “Yaarrp.”
That seems to please Samuel more than anything as they got up from the sand and got into their beach house to do what married couples do all day and night before they finally went to sleep at three in the morning as they slept until ten to head back to Tokyo and inside of the training facility for Samuel to do a lot of training all day long for the upcoming match against Ben Jordan.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Samuel's second ever singles match in his career ustream.com shoot by Henry Losak.“It's time for Samuel to step into the ring, but in a singles match and everyone thinks hang on a minute, it's Samuel's first ever singles match. In Sin City Wrestling it is yes, but not the first ever as that went to a match he had against Chris Madison a few months ago back in a company called Four Corners Wrestling. He's not there any more, but Lord Raab is still there. Anyway we aren't talking about that today because we have Samuel facing against Ben Jordan in his second ever singles match.
How clever of you to get Samuel here out of his so called comfort zone to get him in this match. Bravo Ben. I know Raab's been far too nice on you and Jamie Dean lately, but trust me, that's going to change sooner rather than later because he's had enough of being a goody two shoes to you, but of course it has nothing to do with words cos obviously you've said or done nothing wrong really to piss Raab or Samuel off. You are one of the only guys who respects the hell out of Samuel just from not talking. It's like is there no wrestlers out there with autism who don't talk at all? That makes Samuel stand out from the rest of the wrestlers around here.
Anyway I feel you do have talent in the ring and maybe people are hyping you up way too much to become a singles wrestler like that stupid radio host Tommy Knocks has been saying or so I've heard anyway. Who cares because I barely listen to that garbage radio show, but I guess if you wanted to be a singles wrestler, why are you still in the tag.............oh wait because you are still tag champions.
You went to mention why Raab and Samuel haven't got last names the same yet, well that's still in the works right now and it's not the last name change everyone including you expects at all whatsoever. I think you can pretty much guess who's going change it don't you now? Anyway why are we talking about that part of their lives when it's about wrestling in hand?
Oh because you are some sort of football fan who doesn't like to get hardcore. Oh why don't I believe you that you aren't some football thug. I may not watch football, but Raab has told me a lot about the sport as he used to support FC Koln when he's younger. I suppose he still does, but not as much anymore because he's dedicated to wrestling, amateur MMA and soon to be starting in amateur boxing as well. Samuel on the other hand does like football too, but I think he doesn't support a team.
I don't know, but Samuel here has been training his ass off all week round except for Friday where something big happened to their life on a certain date last year this Sunday, but that's not to be discussed about as Samuel has lost a bit of focus a few times because of not being used on not having Raab in the ring to interfere, but he has to manage it on his own and it's true that Samuel has been nervous about the match and even frightened to wrestle on his own due to what happened last time he had a singles match.
But Raab did tell him he will learn from this experience you want to have with Samuel and I never really knew why you wanted to face Samuel instead of Raab, but here we are. The problem is you are too nice for this business and being about someone who protects people all the time. Fucking hell, even Raab wouldn't always protect Samuel from being attacked from behind because he wouldn't do that.
Samuel can take care of himself on that side of things himself. How about if something bad happened to Jamie Dean with what Lord Raab would do? Would you run to the back and protect him, even in the middle of the match? That would be a question for Jamie and you to answer because I bet you both wouldn't do that either.
In fact, you've always wanted to face Samuel even before this challenge came out Ben. You kind of wanted to face him before the tag team match and of course Samuel isn't interested in doing singles matches because of lack of experience hello. It's not like he could've gone anywhere else to practice real matches in the development ranks to gain experience. He has to be in tag matches just to learn everything he can in this business. Nearly everyone was the same before they started, even Raab was the same too tag teaming with his German trainer against a few other people.
Samuel will never level out Raab because their love and support for each other is too strong and it's like you can't break them up and they never will. Samuel doesn't want to fight Raab, he wants to fight alongside Raab because he wants to become tag team champions with his husband. Now nobody says for Roxi to level out Kiera for her out of control behaviour do they? Even though their run as tag champions is a fucking joke because of the lack of competition they have.
In fact there was another reason why Samuel hasn't wrestled in much matches since the time he and Raab lost against The Bodies for the tag titles, it's because Samuel unlike you did work on the one thing that's his main weakness in wrestling and it kinda still is, his stamina. He went on a month's course of stamina training because he easily gets tired quicker than Raab does and it has nothing to do with his weight, it's down to the fact he's never had cardio training in his life.
Now you saw the improvement in that area when it came to the last two matches with you and Jamie Dean and against James and Steve last week. I'm sure the reason why you wanted to face Samuel because you class him as weak and not that strong compared to Raab right? In a way, that's a bitch move to be that much afraid of facing Raab one on one, but it's fine because Samuel will just fucking destroy you in the ring anyway because he's an Animal when he wrestles.
A quiet animal yes, but an animal is just like how monsters fight on ripping people apart hence the name The Monstimals appeared because of how they are as fighters and their passion for hardcore wrestling as well. Everyone misses the point of the hardcore tag team match is the match that will hopefully see a new light to the division. Raab and Samuel could've said a cage match for the tag titles, but that would've been a bit too much, considering it's not the sort of style you boys have, even though Jamie Dean did compete in some dangerous match with Sean Jackson sometime ago.
When it comes to Jamie Dean side of things, that's being hypocritical of him to say something like that. Ben at the same time is making a fool out of himself because what happens if Samuel beats your ass in the middle of the ring? You'd go off crying and leave the company with an injury like Drake Green did, but I doubt that will happen, but just think what it'll do for your career if it was to happen?
You'd shame the wrestling world. You see if Samuel losses, it doesn't affect him a bit because he's only learning and gaining experience right now and it would be awesome when Samuel destroys you to shreds with Raab being there at ringside to watch, but even if he wasn't handcuffed to the turnbuckle, he wouldn't have interrupted anyway because Samuel's been training a lot to wrestle on his own. Yes Raab and I have been outside of the ring, but had no help to know what he's doing in the ring.
Samuel is just going to pound on you like the mistake you are making with this and there will be no more nicey dicey with Raab or Samuel because they are going to piss you both the hell off even more, especially Raab who's got more than a few things to say about you Ben and Jamie for that matter. Samuel will just batter your brains in with his fists, knees, feet and his arms as he will dangerously beat you like a vicious animal he is. He will easily throw you around like a rag doll and try to squeeze the life out of you like he did with his last singles opponent.
But of course you are completely unaware that it's Samuel's second ever singles match in his career and you might want to be careful of that because he might've lacked a lot back then, but he never even stepped into the ring with that wrestler compared to you that's indeed played it into his hands even more with this upcoming match and you know it. You know how much of a mistake it is to even consider facing Samuel because he's becoming just like Raab lately in the ring how he's losing control like an animal he should be.
Animals are just as dangerous as monsters are which a lot of people ignore in general as Samuel will eat you alive with his dangerous and vicious moves which everyone says Raab is a dangerous wrestler, wait until you've wrestled Samuel which then you'd realise you'll never ever challenge Samuel to a one on one match ever again. Prepare for the beating from the Animal himself as he'll make you tap out like a bitch you are Ben. See you tomorrow night.”
