It also means running into people you weren't expecting to see, haha. I know I shouldn't be surprised about that considering how many of us live in Florida, so it does make sense we'd make the convention rounds when possible. It was nice to see you, Charlie! How's the indie life been treating you?

Thank you, Taylor! It turned out to be a great birthday, even if I couldn't celebrate it at home. Joseph and the kids did spoil me before I left, and I did wind up having a good time on the actual day by myself, so I'm pretty lucky. Congrats on your call up, by the way. You guys have been killing it on Smackdown.

Yeah, that can be a little rough, but at least you'll get to go home and relax afterwards, right? I bet your cats will be so happy to see you again, haha. That's what you have to do in those kinds of situations; find the positives, and focus on that. I know I'm just as excited as the fans, because it's always great when you're able to work with a friend.

You'd absolutely love it, Bianca. There's so much to see and do, so if you ever do get the chance, I'd definitely recommend taking a trip here! It is nice having a friend to do things with, but I'm someone who doesn't really mind traveling alone at times. I did that a lot when I was younger and a lot more spontaneous, haha. I do try to go with him whenever I can, so chances are I'll be there if you decide to check out another PLE or RAW sometime.

You always do, love. You and the kids both do, because there's been so many times when I've been feeling down, and then you or one of the kids says or does something that completely turns everything around. It's so funny to look back and think how nervous I was when we first started dating, worrying what they were going to think. I really am lucky to have such an amazing family. Good, that's what I wanted to hear. Not that I ever had any doubt, but a little insurance never hurt anyone. Haha, I think it's because I'm so used to traveling. I used to travel regularly when I was younger, and even if it's slowed down now, I think that really helped me get used to dealing with jet lag and things like that. Not to mention, the crowds have been amazing, and it does help when you can feed off their energy.

Aw, thank you so much! As much as I wish I could've celebrated at home, there are much worse places to be than Australia, so I suppose I can't complain too much, haha. Hope you've been doing well. I keep seeing people tossing your name around, expecting to see you pop up in WWE anytime.

Thank you so much, Bianca! Luckily I've been here a few times in the past, so I've already got a good idea of what I want to do between shows. Ash and I are definitely going to try and film something for Chamber of Horrors while we're here too, haha. Yes, absolutely! Things have been so busy lately, but I'm sure we'll be able to work it back in soon. At least we got to catch up a bit on Saturday, though. I was surprised to see you. Will you be coming to more PLEs, or was that a special occasion?

I'm sure that's the big payoff for a lot of people, and it's safe to say you've certainly earned it by now. It can be difficult to walk away, but you have to do what you feel is best for you and your family. I can see Roux being a great big sister, too.

That's too bad, but I'm happy you're keeping yourself booked and busy. Looks like you and Samuel are planning for when he's able to start wrestling again too, and I do have to say I'm looking forward to that. You two work so well together, but that's what happens when you get to work with such a good friend.

You always know what to say and do to help me calm down and relax. I hate feeling like that, but I love knowing I'm lucky enough to have someone as kind and understanding as you to help me through it. Believe me, you do all that and more, love. I can't even begin to say how amazing Sunday was. You and the kids have always made me feel special, and I love you all. I'm so happy to have such a wonderful family. ❤️ There better be hugs and kisses waiting for me when I get back home. I'll be coming with presents, and I'm not afraid to keep them to myself if you don't pay up.

Honestly? Enjoying time at home with your family sounds really nice right about now. It's a good reminder of why we do what we do, too; we work hard, so we can enjoy those quiet years once they come.

I don't want to miss out on your birthday, either. I'm sorry, love, I know I'm being a grouch... I love wrestling, and I don't usually mind the traveling and all of the busyness and craziness that comes with it. Think that's a large part of what attracted me to it in the first place, even. Maybe I am being extra sentimental since it's our birthday month... Either way, I'll be alright. It's always nice when the shows are here, because I will always prefer sleeping in our bed. I've been side-eying hotels ever since I got locked out of my room because the lock needed to charge. That was an experience I never want to repeat. You're the best, though. I want to sneak in every hug and kiss we can, so I'll have enough to get me through while in Australia.
