Amusement park day out. Los Angeles, California. Friday 22nd November. (Off Camera)
It's been a few weeks the last time Jake saw his girlfriend, Olivia since the loss of the fatal four-way match Jake set up. Of course, Jake's been busy with his acting and his archery classes. Over the last few weeks, Jake hadn't even thought about wrestling whatsoever. He had been focused on doing other reactional activities with mainly archery and acting. Jake kisses Olivia as they leave their hotel room and head towards where Jake was planning to take Olivia for the day.
Olivia had no idea what the plan was. Still, she likes surprises as she held Jake's hand as they walk across Los Angeles, seeing the Walk Of Fame stars yesterday of many celebrities around. They also did a bus tour where they found out where certain celebrities live and other exciting places around Los Angeles. As they walk across the bridge, Olivia stops walking with Jake and looks up at the sign as she gasps and says this.
Olivia: “Oh my god, Jake, you decided to take me to an amusement park?”
Jake Raab: “It's something I've never done before, considering Germany doesn't have many theme parks or at least nowhere near where I live. Besides, I have nobody else apart from you to take you here.”
Olivia: “I hope you'll get something sorted out; this break, you had was something you needed from wrestling.”
Jake Raab: “I haven't cared to watch the Sin City Wrestling shows, although I know how Stephan done against Ben Jordan as of late in a tournament SCW had. I'm not focusing on solo's titles, I've proven I'm undeserving for them.”
Olivia looks lost, although it was a wise decision for Jake to not focus on doing solo's titles, for now, Olivia shakes her head slightly, biting her lip, squishing her eyebrows together. Olivia asks Jake to repeat back as to what he meant.
Olivia: “What do you mean, not solo's titles?”
Jake Raab: “As much as I've not shown any effort towards meeting up with people, it's time for me to change up a bit by finding a female tag partner to team with me. My focus when I return to the ring isn't Griffin or Senor Vinnie; it's the mixed tag titles.”
Olivia: “I never knew there was a mixed tag titles belt. If only I'd become a wrestler with you, but it takes years of training to do something like that.”
Jake Raab: “Yes, it sucks, but that's a different kind of challenge I need in wrestling. I'm getting bored of facing against wrestlers on my own; I'm sick of being alone in wrestling. Nobody seems to care or want to know me, besides Ben, but he's not female for me to team with him.”
Olivia nods, understanding how much Jake wants to socialise with other wrestlers, especially with the female's side of things as he didn't want to be alone anymore. Jake hated being alone where it seems so easy for everyone to be friends, but Jake barely able to make more than one friend.
Olivia: “Why are we wasting time here? I want to go on the rides, especially that roller coaster and that wheel.”
Jake Raab: “We will don't worry. Let's go and get ourselves unlimited waistbands. At least it's a theme park I can afford; the other ones cost way too much money to take you here. I know you're worth a lot more than this, but it's because I don't have much money when it goes on bills and food most of the week.”
Olivia: “Don't worry, I love being here already. It doesn't matter if you think I deserve better; I understand the money situation. Come on already, let's go on the rides.”
At least it reassured Jake a lot, Olivia not caring about how much money Jake spends on her as they line up and get unlimited wristbands where they can go on the rides as many times as they want. They walk in the theme park and see there's a lot of things to do as Olivia ran straight towards the roller coaster, which is named West Coaster. She stands in line as Jake caught up to her and he says this.
Jake Raab: “Seems you're excited to go on this ride already.”
Olivia: “Of course, as we've not done anything like this in weeks.”
Jake Raab: “It's good you decided to go on this as I wouldn't know where to begin.”
Another good thing about the amusement park they were at there's a short line to go on the roller coaster as they sat right at the back, next to each other as the rails go down with Jake and Olivia holding onto them.
The ride starts. Both Jake and Olivia screamed as they went down and all over the place with the roller coaster, without saying a word. A few minutes later, Jake and Olivia got off the ride as she was out of breath.
Olivia: “Wow, that was one heck of a ride.”
Jake Raab: “Indeed it was, now do you want to go on the wheel next?”
Olivia: “Actually, I want to go on this Inkie’s Scrambler first. I think we'll leave the wheel until last.”
Jake Raab: “That's fine. We can do that; I let you decide what rides you want to go on today.”
Olivia likes this new Jake as she was going on rides on what she wanted to do than with Jake's orders. She sees him not being as controlling as the other boyfriends Olivia had in the past. Although Olivia fears of Jake potentially going to cheat on her if he'd find a female tag partner for them to get close, thankfully, it hasn't happened yet.
They got straight on the Inkie's Scrambler, but this time, they sat right at the front to see everything as they screamed and they were enjoying themselves. They went on other rides like Sea Dragon, Pacific Plunge, Shark Frenzy, Seaside Swing and the Pacific Wheel. When they were on the wheel, it was when Jake and Olivia started talking again while sitting on the ride.
Olivia: “So, tell me about who you're facing against on Sunday?”
Jake Raab: “To be honest, I only found out on Tuesday from Edgar I was wrestling on Sunday. A couple of guys known as Anthrax and well, you know this guy from when I fought him as a tag partner and in that fatal four-way match, Stephan Callaway.”
Olivia: “Anthrax, the band?”
Jake Raab: “HAHA, no, the wrestler Anthrax, the guy who wears a clown make up and is dating Twisted Sister. He seems to be some nutcase, a mentally ill wrestler.”
Olivia: “Like Markus isn't.”
Jake Raab: “True. He hasn't had many matches or at least not many he's spoken about, but that's personally how wrestling should be. He and Twisted Sister are a successful team, but as solo's wrestlers, they aren't. I don't recall Anthrax even caring for titles.”
Olivia: “You don't care for solo's titles.”
Jake Raab: “At the moment I don't. When I look back, that was the other cause of my problems. I kept focusing on winning titles for myself too much. Mixed Tag titles are a different story.”
It was because Jake knows he wouldn't be considered for the titles Griffin and Vinnie hold and has completely given up going for either one of those belts at least for now Jake has and he accepts it with Jake speaking again.
Jake Raab: “As for Stephen, he's having trouble getting his feet wet in the company, like myself as well. Heck, it's a long going problem for me, and it's ridiculous. Why is it that every wrestler who comes to SCW gets respected straight off the bat, while people like me and Stephen don't?”
Olivia: “It feels like you both are getting ignored a lot.”
Jake Raab: “Sure, Stephen got pinned in the fatal four-way, but the fact it seems nobody cares about the talent he has does piss me off. Heck, I could've been pinned by him if I wasn't careful. The guy took Ben to his limits. That's something I respect with Stephen.”
Olivia: “Although he seems to make excuses of him being ill.”
Jake Raab: “Yeah, I noticed that as well. He needs to stop making excuses for his losses and be a man about it. It's the one thing I dislike about Stephen. While Anthrax needs to wrestle consistently and care more about winning titles.”
Olivia hears Jake's concerns of him being ignored and lacking any friends around him, although at least Jake's slightly different, although Olivia quickly reminds him about the upcoming match as they were near the bottom to get off the ride now.
Olivia: “Are you aware your match isn't just a regular triple threat match?”
Jake Raab: “I thought it was?”
Olivia: “No, it's a No DQ's and no count-outs match.”
Jake Raab: “That's great, much better than when I first heard the match, I was like not this again of boredom wrestling, but when you mentioned that, it's another thing I've not tried in SCW yet. I almost did with the Roulette title match, but Samuel's dad passed away, so it was given to Griffin instead.”
Olivia: “At least you can be focused on nothing, but yourself in this match, and that's what you need to do.”
Jake Raab: “Indeed, Anthrax and Stephen are my targets, and everyone will be throughout the entire time I'm wrestling until I found a bombshell to team with me. Let's get a hot dog and ice cream together.”
Olivia: “I agree. Let's do that now before we go home.”
As they got to the bottom, they got off the ride as Jake and Olivia walked to the stalls of the hot dog's area as Jake pays for his and Olivia's hot dog and they eat it. As they finished eating, Jake went to the ice cream area and does the same before they ate Ice Cream, all the way to their hotel they are staying in not far from the amusement park. Jake, however, waits for a few hours with Olivia in the hotel room before doing gym work for the upcoming match.
----------------------------------------
What are Jake's goals for the end of the year? Jake's camera. (On Camera)
“I get to the title of my video later on because that's important, focusing on opponents in front of me. I won't even talk about what I've done the last few weeks because that's not important. What is, however, is this match is different from the same old triple threat match. I was getting bored with that; instead, it's a no count-out and a no DQ match which is something I've not tried before, and I have a feeling I will like it.
I've stated a few times I have no problems getting my hands dirty if I need to, within the rules of course. I'm focused on getting back up the ladder again with no focus on titles right now, well apart from one, but I get to that later as I'll focus on Anthrax and Stephen as my opponents for now.
OK so I've not seen much of Anthrax as of late in the ring, not sure why that is, but I can't disagree about this match going his way, maybe Stephen has experience with hardcore and barbaric matches, I don't funny enough, but I'm willing to learn and get better for it. You might be a clown who plays pranks on people, but I have no problems getting dirty, primarily this match is assigned for any wrestler to get dirty.
Go ahead and poke me in the eyes or hit me from downstairs, but it will do nothing to stop this Fiery Target from coming out with full of fire and being your target for the match. Also, I've not seen much if any commitment from you on wanting to win titles or anything. I see you and Twisted Sister, being in tag matches together and trying to win the Mixed Tag titles, but not been successful for some reason. However, despite the things I've said, I'm looking forward to what you'll do in the ring.
Now we have someone who always makes excuses for his losses on the shingles crap. Listen, Stephen, I've wrestled many times when I've been sick and in some cases, I have won matches out of it, but I've never used being sick as an excuse as to why I've lost matches. I've never cried about losing or even bitch or complain about them because I only get better as a wrestler.
I know we've been in tag and fatal four-way match together and I've seen the improvement in your skills, even taking Ben Jordan to the test, could've had the win if you captured the pinfall a lot earlier on Ben. Still, you didn't, and it also didn't seem you wanted to win the SCW title, despite your claims on wanting it when we fought. Wonder what you'll do now when you've only had one win so far in your career?
We aren't fighting for titles or title shots, and I hope it stays that way because the fact is, I'm not going to target the solos belts, I'm backing out of them, temporary. What I want to do instead is something new, something I've not been successful in at all and something I want to get the monkey off my back to do, Mixed Tag titles. The only problem with this is I'm not able to find a bombshell tag partner.
I have a couple of names on my list for perfect tag partners for the bombshells side of things, but I'll unveil them on the show and see if any of the names I have on the list will respond to me or even other bombshells are more than welcome to step up and accept to be my tag partner. That's my goal for the rest of the year is finding a bombshell to tag with me and be a better person.
Tomorrow night, it's about making changes as I will do everything possible to get that win over Anthrax and Stephen Callaway. I will use everything to my advantage of using weapons I've not done yet. I will either pin or submit someone on the outside to win the match because I will. With the goal lined up for the rest of the year, I'm in an excellent spot to accomplish that goal, and the first thing to do is winning this match. See you both out there and watch out for The Fiery Target.”
