THE SWITCHBLADE 🔪

So, you seem off in your head. Anything you want to tell me? House, farm, whatever. Thekla, her girls and the guys look to be hanging out the next few days. You want to come or no? @switchbladefm

you’re right and i know you are, honestly it’s just this state of limbo i’m in that’s killing me. tony wants me back at a 100% and i can appreciate that, but doesn’t make shit any easier. sure, the farm keeps me busy and all, but i hate feeling like i’m useless, essentially. and i do want to let you in and i am, but i don’t want to scare you off either with this mess that is my head right now. ‘specially when you should be enjoying things for yourself right now. well if you’re there, then so am i. as if you could stick out like a sore thumb, acting like your good looks wouldn’t have the people in the restaurant swooning — i know i will be.

i’m sorry, i don’t mean to be. i’ve hit one of those funky points mentally, been happening ever since the injury honestly. i don’t want to go throwing my mental shit on you though davey, last thing i’m trying to be on you is a burden or an anchor. that depends, do you want me there with you? if so, i’ll happily join you.

don’t worry, i’ve got you covered on that front when you need it. oh don’t even get me started on them, that bath scene?! peak romance in my eyes, even if they don’t exactly end romantically they still had me in a chokehold. supposedly sam and the actress playing akasha have been in a project together before, so i’m hoping it will lead to some amazing chemistry between them. yeah, the lore with them is insane! if you ever feel up to it, i’d recommend giving the books a try but if reading isn’t your thing, there’s a whole wikipedia dedicated to the entire universe and it breaks down his relationship with gabrielle so much more. louis never messes around when it comes to lestat, they’re toxic as hell but i love them together, honestly. that’s so valid, if you aren’t protective of your significant other then you’re with the wrong person.

lestat in true chaotic fashion, i loved it 🤭. honestly, the narrating was all over the place but i’m excited to see how they continue it the rest of the show. especially that queen akasha is supposed to be making an appearance? i’m seated. as someone who read the books, i was fully expecting it, but god my jaw still dropped. there was a clip of louis in the trailer throwing her across a room and i need that scene expeditiously.

if the rest of his narrating is like that, you may need to break it down for me throughout the season. truthfully, akasha and lestat from the original film were a bisexual panic for me so i need them to have that chemistry again. fuck, i didn’t read the books so that shit had me rocked, like she’s who to you sir? giving real house of the dragon vibes. really? good on louis then, i’ll be rooting him on for that scene. if my partner isn’t ready to rock someone’s shit like that over me, what’s the point?

the vampire lestat officially dropped on amc+ today and i already need the rest of the episodes to binge watch, this will be my hyper fixation for the remainder of summer guys, sorry not sorry.

that whole first episode had me feeling as if i was on an acid trip, but pretty sure that was the point. how did we feel about that little reveal at the end?

i’m baaaaaaack!! it felt so good to be back with my aew family last night and we’re onto big things with the owen hart cup, maybe 2x winner incoming? but fill me in on what all i’ve missed guys.

and see, this is why i didn’t make my return last night because how am i supposed to compete with that merc? blew the roof off that arena last night, by the way. going to try earning that belt collector title back?

I can't believe you haven't said hi or anything. @switchbladefm

well don’t go holding it against me miss dmd, i’ve been a busy man in my defense. how’ve you been though?

we had some of the best times back then, whether we were training or running around the city it was the two of us against the world. you let me know when you’re free then and i’ll take ya up on that offer, if anyone can get me back into fighting shape it’s you. that’s how it is with the gunns and juice, they’re great and i’ve grown a kinship with them but they’ll never replace you, no one could. ha, should’ve known you’d say that considering you’re the expert of knowing how to drive me crazy. juice knows quite a bit of our history, the gunns know we have history just not the full extent of it. they shouldn’t take issue with anything though and if they do i’ll speak to them. trying to steal me away from the boys now 😏? not necessarily stir crazy, more bored and impatient than anything else. made for a wild birthday night it sounds like, i’m glad you had yourself a time davey and that you found a solid crew of mates.

i caught that, wasn’t expecting you guys to steal their five second pose but that was classic, ha. but you should know when it comes to you, i’m always impressed. lucky for you i happen to like you greedy, especially when it’s towards me so i think that can be arranged. i’ve got some physical therapy and a few things to take care of on the farm early in the week, but i’ll pack a bag and once you’re back in town from dynamite i’ll be over and i’m all yours for as long as you want me there. i saw that, honestly i get where gabe was trying to look out for you as a friend — but still, when we want people to know about us i want it come from us, our way. but hey, don’t let that shit cause any tension between you two, alright? end of the day, only person i care about and how they’re about things is you. some gold always does look good on you and it’ll give cope and christian some new competition, the feud you’re building with them is already shaping up to be a good one i think. dan will find his way back with you all eventually, everyone wants to have their singles run, figure out who they are outside of a faction. but you lot have become a family and i’m sure that’s not lost on him, just have to give it time. ‘least clark knows he still has you and gabe in his corner, yeah? well there isn’t a doubt in my mind tk will have you in that world title picture sometime soon, he’d be foolish not to. heh, is he? well you know i’m always happy to see your family, ‘specially your dad considering how good he’s always been to me so let me know when and we’ll make a trip to his. please, we both know he was probably getting a kick out of getting mentioned in a promo by you.

wait, who is this again? you sound a lot like a certain ceo i know but damn, haven’t heard from her in a while. hah, promise i’m just giving you a hard time but nothing to forgive, know you’ve been busy with your indie run. the fact you’re bringing me back gifts does soften the blow though i’ll admit, but anytime you want to pop on by feel free to. ah, should’ve known you’d be asking — but honestly, we’re taking things slow and seeing where they go. i made a little trip to double or nothing last weekend and it was nice, think that’s the actual happiest i’ve been since the injury happened, merc.

well there’s my title, wrestling gears for the shows, outfits which there’s a few for different occasions because you never know, right? and then small things like make-up, skin care, it’s all necessity jay! so no judging sir. more like two weeks, since we have house shows thrown in there too which i’m excited for the trip overall, but making sure i have everything is the real struggle.

you had me up ‘till the multiple outfits bit ‘cause wouldn’t you just need the outfits for each day and that’s it? there’s so many questions honestly and maybe that has to do with me having the man’s mentality of packing the essentials. actually longer than i thought it was, so the amount of packing makes a little more sense to me now. where you lot hitting on this tour, besides italy of course. anywhere specific you’re looking forward to?

I'm in one suitcase and I have a lot of clothes so she has to pack those too. You know I'm a fashion icon. @switchbladefm

you joining her on the trip overseas or is she just helping you pack for the show this week? heh, convinced you and nick have been taking some pointers from okada on the fashion front. not that it’s a bad thing, man knows how to dress.

the european tour always has me packing like a mad woman because the amount of luggage i’m bringing is probably too much, but i swear i need everything i’m bringing guys 😩.

i’m simply wondering what it is your packing to need multiple bags barbie. thought you lot were only over there for a week tops or is it longer?

You good? Seem off but that could be the injury. @switchbladefm

damn, it’s still crazy to think about you retiring doesn’t feel like a real thing. but after all you’ve given to the wrestling world mate, you’re going down as one of the greats. hopefully you and i can have one more go in that ring before you hang up the boots.

been debating a trip back home to nz, take advantage to see the family while i’m out. and somehow my mother must have sensed my homesickness ‘cause tell me why i got a call from her today asking if she could come visit soon, if that isn’t parent intuition i’m not sure what is.

trust me, if i let her go nursing me too much she’ll think i need to be put into protective bubble wrap. she means well of course, but she’s a worrier. it’ll be nice having her around for some catch up time though, haven’t seen her in a while.
