I’ve just returned home after the most recent Synergy, having driven all night from Chicago to get there. It’s been five days since I left, first driving to Las Vegas to get the a show there, then heading from there to Chicago for the UGWC show. I’m lying on my couch when I feel my arm being lifted up from my chest. I groan and…
Carnage
The Home of the Carnage Wrestling LegacyDressed in a black and black suit, shirt, and tie ensemble, Antonio Ricci seems dressed to impress. It’s not so much that he was trying to impress anyone, in fact, he had just completed his first night of parent/teacher conferences. He found it amazing that the parents who knew of his second career in professional wrestling thought that “The Omega Weapon” thought that the man…
Synergy #383 Two Down. I’m thinking to myself while I shove my things into my bag. Two down.. And so much more to go. I don’t know what lies next, but it won’t be easy – And still I worry that I won’t make it to the end. I worry that I won’t make it and once again, I’ll be letting us down. “Hey, congratulations.”…
“So, Baltimore, Maryland, man.” “Yeah. Some old warehouse that became known as Carnage Arena.” “This place just looks old, Dave.” “It does, it’s like we just stepped back in time. It’s pretty cool.” The voiceover is being recorded while the TAPS team rolls up to the building. “TAPS is being called out to the former Carnage Arena which dates back to the Civil War era….
Synergy #382 It felt like I stood there in the ring, watching Ken leave for a hell of a long time. One down. I almost couldn’t believe it. Ken wanted it. I didn’t doubt it before, and I sure as hell don’t doubt it now. I’m tired. No, scratch that.. I’m exhausted. As hard as it was, I managed to drag myself backstage fully ready…
I rub my eyes, trying to force myself to stay awake. I slump over slightly, trying to figure out why I’m sitting in the middle of the kitchen at 4:17 in the morning, on my third cup of coffee since I woke up almost two hours ago. It’s not so much that I don’t know what’s keeping me awake… it’s that I don’t know why…
Massive Melee 2022 “Hey, you alright?” Rogan says from beside me, nudging me softly in the side. I glance over to see his lips upturned into that playful and irresistible grin that’s become synonymous with him over the last year or so. Well, not so much lately. It’s no real secret that things haven’t been the best between him and I since I lost the…
Immediately after the Massive Melee, the Baltimore Elite are sitting in their private dressing room, one of the things UGWC has given to them by virtue of the two of them being married, but also giving Adina a space to run around without bothering the other talents. Adina is on her way, along with Chloe Hawkhurst, back to their hotel room. Ken is sitting on…
The night sky is ablaze with various shades of tangerine, bright orange-red, and dark copper, contrasted by the occasional blue-violet hues associated with this time of year. Though the landscape is distinctly 18th century, the displays made of thousands of pumpkins are quite modern. Everything from a pseudo Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton to a train to a simple tunnel lined with pumpkins have been designed. Visually,…
