The Aftermath of the Impact...

Full Force Impact X-7's the past. What does the future hold? Nobody can tell, that's for sure.
What I can tell all of you is that yours truly is heading for even more action in the squared circle - guess what? Next up on the list is Aziruf, and trust the Phoenix: This guy's not called 'The Wind' for nothing!
Our match is scheduled for Burn!06 and we've been working on some stuff, so expect something nice.

By the way.. someone remind me not to ever do this Death Match crap again - my chest's all scarred from the damn wire. lol

Fun fact: Murder gave me some best-of dvd full of bloody hardcore matches, laughing like a madman at the face I made. Someone took a pic and it's floating through the locker room now. lol

A lot's been going on lately, so I didn't really get around to posting new stuff. Sorry, y'all.
The lounge in Glasgow is about to open up and I'm quite happy with how quick it all went down. I'll be over there during the next couple of weeks, cruising between London and Glasgow, trying to keep my hot little body in shape for the big match that's coming up.
The next step, however, is a match against The Jester and I highly advise y'all catch it on TV or even live. Talking about live events.... I've done the impossible and got my hands on 10, that's ten, T-E-N!! first to third row tickets for the FULL FORCE IMPACT! That's right, Full Force Impact FireStar Pro, the night of the nights. Obviously, the tickets don't include anything other than the show itself, but c'mon, FFI's a must-see for any real wrestling fan. On top, you'll get to see your's truly in action against that bunghole-bummed bastard, Mr. Murder.
How to get a ticket? Easy! Send me a tweet pic of you doing something Gooma or Phoenix related. I'll pick the winners. If you ask real nice, I might even give you two tickets.

Fun fact: I have like no idea what happened to that Pride guy.
Fun fact No. 2: Ed Steele sucks at Mario Kart.

Well, well... these last few days haven't really been too good.
Y'all might have seen what happened at Burn! 04, when that punk Mr. Murder and his crap-ass friends mutilated poor Jack for good. It was downright nasty.
Now, I'm not even remotely down with this garbage style of wrestling at all. We guys backstage knew it was going to get a little juicy out there, but it went far beyond that, when this untalented bitch proved he can't go 10 steps without falling when it comes to wrestling. The spots they had planned were dangerous and all of them just showed they're botchy ass punks when they couldn't work them. Why poor Jack was even willing to work these kind of spots with those idiots, I don't know. I wouldn't.
But Jack's out for good and he might not ever be back - ever. A career might just've been ruined cause some punk asses who thought they're so cool hitting people with barbed wire (goddamn, how sick is that???). Now, I'm no regular user of cuss words, but fvck you, Murder, really. FVCK YOU!
If I could, I'd just beat him up for good, but as it is, he's my co-worker and we have a program going on. But I'm telling you this, bitch: Watch your back. Just remember you're still using the locker room as all the boys do.

What a night!!

Wow, I'm still pumped from the show... I guess it's the price for enjoying the London nightlife for too long, eh?
Chad and me finally got to have a real smooth 1o1 together. After our Fusion bout, we both thought we owed our fans something, you know, so we really gave it our all.
Chad, bro - thank you so much for making me look good and be sure that I'm still feeling all the pain I put into making you look good out there. This one honestly must have been like the best match I ever had.

Well, as you might remember, I've had this contest going on about re-naming my signature piledriver. Now, I really liked most of the ideas y'all gave me, and the Gooma Driver really stood out. But I can't invite you to the BBQ, McFly, cause you'e already on the list! lol
So instead, I chose 'MasterM1ND's submission - my crosslegged sitout scoop slam piledriver will from now on be known as a tribute to Chris McFly, jr. - the Swinging Driver!

Anyway, y'all - be sure to check out Burn! 04, if you haven't already. It's a helluva show!

Smells like a contest and a barbecue over there...

Yo, it's yours truly, the Phoenix Johnson, once again babbling about some stuff you might find interesting.
In case you do, keep reading.
If not, check out this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV-7cDCx_dI&feature=related

Now, there's two things right now.
I got told that  needed a new name for one of my moves in FSP and my third annual barbecue is coming up.
If you don't know yet, I'm playing host once a year at the last of June, going into July 1 (USA, baby! USA!), inviting all the guys and chicks who keep the Lounge and the spirit of Gooma rolling to a BBQ, all free of charge.
This year, however, I wanna invite my extended family of the pro wrestling world, too, so I've already prepared invitations for the guys at FireStar Pro.
And YOU can be part of this very festivity, too!
How, you ask?
Simple!

As I already said, I need a new name for a move, because whenever I do the crosslegged sitout scoop slam piledriver at FSP house shows, the announcing team can barely get the anme out properly in the middle of a match.
Now guess why I haven't really used that one on TV, lol.
I've seen CIMA use the move as a Perfect Driver, and ya, it's catchy, but yours truly needs something special.
So, send me your suggestions via mail (e-mail, doh) or comments right here at the blog. I'll be choosing in a week or so and the winner will get to be part of the annual Gooma-BBQ!
Sound's good? All expenses paid, flight and stay and all that! Sounds better, huh? lol.
What you waiting for? Get crackin'!

Just a little heads up

I've just come back to the states from a short trip over to Glasgow and damn! Work's sure going fast there.
The final deal's only been done a few days ago and the Lounge over there is already nearly all finished up.
It looks so smooth, I'm considering moving my main training over there... lol.

I'll be over at Tampa at Sunday for that one show you've prolly heard about. If I see anyone sporting an OG Phoenix tee, you're hereby invited to a beer!
Next week, I'll be both showcasing the skills of yours truly at a local Miama event, as well as giving out advice as part of a wrestling crash course held the next day. I you ever wanted to get some real legit pro tips from the one'n'only 'Phoenix' Johnson, here's your chance! I'll try to ring up that dude McFly to see if he has any good tips to add, so it'll sure be hot. Don't miss it.

Funny fact: When Murder told the locker room about the upcoming plans (you'll see....), I immediately wondered if he'd resurreted Coughnut, the old school Bay Area rap fan that I am. lol

It's taken quite long, but I've finally come round to getting my own blog all done. I'll be using this to get some background stuff and stories out there, whenever I'll find the time. The phoenix is a busy man, you know?! (lol)

Now, why do I even open up this blog, you ask?
Whenever I hit the Lounge over at Miami (btw, the Glasgow deal's finally all done! The expansion's rolling on, baby!), which I try to do like 2-4 times a week, people are all over me like 'yo, phoenix, tell me 'bout this wrestling stuff you're in. what's up with that?', so I'm like 'ya, what you wanna hear, bro?'.
Most people ask me the same old stuff - is it even real, is it fake, is it only fake in the E, but not in the indies, yadda yadda. But some ask some real good stuff, so that's what this little blog will be about - getting into detail with the good stuff.

First, let me get real clear: No, pro wrestling's not really real, but that's not even what it's about.
It's about entertaining y'all and doing it an a truly unique way.
See, I've done a lot of sport-y stuff in my life.
I've been on skates, boards, done some athletics, played some football, freeclimbing, running marathons, you name it, I've done it. (Well, not everything. lol)
On top of all, I tried some of that Gooma stuff, you might have heard about it.
Pro wrestling's like all of those, combined. It can be quite insane.
Imagine you're at like 9ft. or more, holding your balance on some ropes and a turnbuckle that you can barly place a foot on, carrying a 250lbs guy upside down on your back and then jumping like another 9 or 10 ft into a table that was just moments before used by some dudes for color-commentating.
Sounds too sick to be true? Been there, done that. Go watch Chaos Complete, if you haven't.
Big kudos go out to that big dude Carnage - when Chad, him and me got together for the match (meaning the office gave us our time, said who'd win and all that), I had quite another ending in mind, some top-rope action, maybe through a table, but he was like 'dude, we need to go bigger! can you jump that piledriver to the outside?'
You should've seen my face (lol), good times.

Second point - rumours are spreading I was high when Cosmic Fusion aired live and I went into the squared circle with Chad on that high.
It's not true!
I'd never endanger myself or, more importantly, my co-worker with stupid behavior like that!
The office of FireStar Pro knows the deal, but I won't have some stupid bull* ruin my good rep.
So, all of these rumours are not true. I'd never wrestle while high.

Anyway. So, I'll use this blog to keep y'all up to date and share some stories with y'all.
Til then, keep your heads up and your spirits high!
