Before I start this I want to ask if you are going to read this post then you read the whole thing before you judge. Granted I cannot control your thought processes but I do want you to try to understand my point of view. Last week I decided to no longer wrestle after finishing out my dates I had already taken. I had turned down additional dates due to this decision. The drama and the way that people act made this decision a necessity in order to ensure I didnt become one of those bitter people in this business that moan and groan all the time. I dont want to turn out like that and I really dont want to make people hate me for something so... well, whiny and pathetic. If people are going to hate me it is going to be for the person I truly am and proud of it. For a few days I stayed away from any/ all things wrestling related however I cannot avoid the fact that most, if not all, of my closest friends are professional wrestlers. Some of which must be telepathic or clairvoyant because I got some random conversations. However, even these people didnt change my mind. By Friday, January 16, 2015 I had declared to the closest people that I plan to walk away. That was until my daughter said something that brought a tear to my eye. Mommy, I eat this (noodles) and I be strong and wrestle like you because youre my best friend and I love you. My two year old daughter said something so simple and sweet and innocent and honest that I couldnt help it but to think about it. She had come to know me and despite my attempts to keep her away from knowing anything in association with me and wrestling she knew anyways. She definitely gets her smarts from her daddy. When I told her mommy wasnt going to wrestle anymore she said she liked watching me wrestle and that I was like the girl on Brave... my daughter is a charmer, thats for damn sure. So, to those of you (wrestlers and promoters) that I appeared to brush you off or avoid the conversation all together, I am sorry and thank you. To those asking about bookings, I am now accepting them. To those of you talking shit, who cares, and to those of you starting shit I am reminded of one thing... I took too much, went through too much, suffered physically through too much, endured too much and gave too much for you to matter. Sorry but not sorry because it is the damn truth because my whole world lives inside the heart of the most beautiful girl and I have something I still need to show her. She is the MOST important thing in my life, the MOST important thing that matters and the ONLY person in this world I am not only afraid to disappoint, but promise to never disappoint. Life is hard, people suck, world turns anyways. How you over come, how you succeed is something EVERY parent should teach their child in order for them to become the best they can be. She has shown that to me. Thank you Cecilia Marie Turner, I am so happy that you are my best friend and I love you too.
