Nick "The Product" Stonewall- A Tale of Cream Corn and Happy Drinks

Noch's Journal

2005-04-08T20:17:52Z

Everyone should check out Head Referee "Dave Pinocha's" livejournal. He is chronicaling (sp?) his quest to get a girlfriend before Wrestlemania of next year. It's a funny read, and he has a lot better stories than those of myself.

As for me...

I had to miss my AAW booking this weekend because I didn't have a ride. Colby wanted to go to Midlothian for IWA-MS and I wanted to hang out with my ex-girlfriend, Kaysha. He was going to stay the night in Chicago and then just go to AAW the next day, and since I wasn't going to Midlothian then I obviously couldn't stay the night in Chicago unless he came and picked me up after the show, which would have been completely out of the way. Understandable. Oh well. Some things are just more important than wrestling...and Kaysha is definately one of those things. Sorry Tony, hope you're not pissed!

Anyways, things are going pretty good, and I'm definately more happy lately. Come to ScW on the 29th and NWA:No Limits on the 22nd and 23rd. I'm wrestling Claudio Castagnoli on one of those No Limits shows, so that should be cool...and scary.

Anyways...Noch's livejournal name is AlmightyMalachi. READ IT!

Stay clean folks, and remember...have fun. Love somebody (still)!

There's No Place Like Home...

2005-03-02T00:52:29Z

I'm moving home. That sucks, but is good in most ways. I feel like a failure that couldn't make it on my own, but not I'll have money to do things and to travel for wrestling with, and that is especially a very important thing.

I'm doing a training camp with Shane Douglas, and that's gonna cost me some dough, plus Colby and I are possibly getting bookings in Kansas, with little pay. That's a lot of money in gas.

I've been feeling happier lately. Some little things still get me down, and I still have my moments, but I think as a whole I'm doing a lot better. I still miss Kaysha, but I'm giving her, her space. She needs that. I just want her to be happy.

Anyways, come check out NWA:No Limits on the 12th. I wont be wrestling at the ScW show on the 11th, but I still recommend that you go to it. Colby and I are wrestling in Wisconsin. Wrestling is going pretty damn good right now.

Be happy folks. Love someone.

Left Longing

2005-02-04T06:12:16Z

We are only human. We make mistakes.

Those are not good excuses. We must own up to our actions. We must be responsible and set things straight. And that is what I plan to do. In the past I have done many things that I am not proud of...frankly I'm ashamed of them. For that, I am sorry. To all the people I've hurt, I am truly, deeply sorry.

But there is one person that I need to apologize to more than anyone else.

Kaysha, I am more sorry than you could ever know. It's cliche but I guess I didn't know what I had until it was gone. I vow to make it up to you. It is going to be hard, but I am willing to do it. You were my everything, and you still are. Soon you will realize.

From Here to Infinity

2004-12-30T08:09:26Z

Well, it's been awhile since I updated, and to tell you the truth, this might be my last entry...at least for awhile. I hate computers, and it's been truly refreshing to not be on one for this long. I'm using my trusty sidekick's computer right now. That sidekick being Keith.

Well, after the fans bring the weapons match, I'm doing ok. Thanks to everyone that came out and supported us, and brought weapons, and chanted "Dora!" I'm really happy to be the QC champ, and hopefully it'll be a long reign.

Wrestling has been going...well it's been going. I'm kind of disenchanted with the whole business right now. People are scumbags, and the thing is built on lies. It's kind of shitty. We lost our building to train in for now because the fat pizza stuffing, Italian asshole that owns the place wants the four of us and Danny to pay him every week for using the ring, when we already pay Danny. He wants an additional $50 bucks a week per person...FUCK THAT! So right now, I'm not going to be training for awhile. Oh well, to be honest I don't think it was being that beneficial anyways...that's what Danny said at least. He said that Colby and I are pretty damn good and that the training we are receiving right now is not advanced enough for the two of us. That's cool in one way, but really shitty in another. Basically we are paying for his name. Because essentially he is saying that we don't need to be "trained." That we are already "trained," and that what we are doing now is just getting his name behind us so that people will respect us. Now I can appreciate that, because that is what thousands of other wrestlers had to do before us, and will continue to do after us, but it feels like I'm throwing money down the drain. A lot of money. Oh well, I'll just keep trecking through it for now...that is if we can get another building any time soon. What is it with wrestling and buildings, that causes so many problems? Aw fuck it.

Hey hey! I got a tattoo, bitches! It's of a pumpkin, and it says AFI above it. Fuck you all of you aren't down with pumpkins and AFI. My girlfriend isn't too happy with it, but it's something that I had to do, something that I wanted to do. It's on my right forearm, so next time you see me, just ask, and you can look at it. Sounds fun, doesn't it? Sure.

Come see me wrestle as Nick "The Product" Stonewall on Jan. 14th at ScW in Donahue, and then come to Chicago to see me wrestle as "The Product" Marek Brave for AAW. Yep, name change peoples. Danny said people would associate me with Steve Stone, and that is definately not something that I wanted so, I chose to go with Marek Brave. I thought it was kinda catchy. BTW, Marek is the name of Dynamite Kid's son, so that is where I got that. I want some new gear soon too. I want some orange and black shorts. I'm gonna get them personalized with some design and "The Product" on there somewhere. Should be cool. I hope so anyways. I don't think it will cost that much either. I want them before the 14th, but it'll probably be the next show after that, realistically. Ooh, boys and girls, Nick is a real pro now...

I'm so green.

Well folks, it's been a pleasure, and if this is my last entry then I only have these choice words to leave you with...FUCK LIVEJOURNALS!

Fantastic

2004-11-17T20:50:33Z

That is the word of the day. Fantastic. Ah, just makes you feel good doesn't it? Yes, it does.

That is the word that Danny Daniels used to describe my match with Colby last night at practice. He said that it was fantastic, and that if we do the same at AAW that we would...well that we would have no problem coming back. ;)

I was really happy to have a good match at practice. Up to that point I was feeling like I wasn't living up to my potential in the practice matches. Danny knew that I was good, and he knew that I could do anything that he asked me to do, but I really wanted to impress him hardcore in a practice match. So I finally did. And it was a tremendous feeling.

Come see me and Colby at RCW on the 4th of Dec. and me and Colby at AAW on the 11th of Dec. and on the 13th or 15th of Jan. Not sure of the date on that last one. Also, come check out ScW on the 27th of Nov. and the 18th of Dec., where I'll take home the QC title...hopefully. Bring some weapons on the 18th too.

Bye Bye.

Read Alex Shelly's journal.

I want that feeling. I need that feeling.

Keep On Truckin'

2004-10-27T16:44:49Z

So I am so banged up right now it isn't even funny, unless you hate me, and a lot of people do, then you probably think it's hilarious.

My ankle, sternum, neck, back, hip, knee, ding-a-ling: you name it, it hurts. Ok my ding-a-ling doesn't hurt. I was wrestling at practice yesterday, and I did a flip bump over Danny Daniels, and my chest was overwhelmed with pain. It was bugging me up to that point, but not like this. I think it's my sternum. The rest of the day was filled with pain because there was no way I was going to stop practicing. Fuck hurtness. I went to the chiropractor today, so hopefully I'll be better by Thursday, cuz I'm back in Berwyn and back to bumping like a madman.

Hey, my cellphone is not working right now because I'm poor, so if you need to reach me, call my house phone. If I'm not there, then screw you, I probably didn't want to talk to you anyways.

I'm wrestling Wesley Thornton this Saturday. That damned Wesley Thornton. Costing me and El Loco Uno the tag team titles. He'll pay. Damn right, he'll pay.

Great news everyone! In December, Colby and I are going to start wrestling for AAW full time. Danny Daniels told us so last night. We go to meet all the boys on November 27th! Ego and Scarpone wrestle there. There's a few names you might recognize. Come watch us!

I have a festive joke for you now, just in time for the Halloween season:

(Q) Why don't witches wear panties?

(A) Better grip on the broom.

ZING!

On that note, I'm out. See you on Saturday!

What do ya know...

2004-10-21T20:28:42Z

I'm updating again. This rare livejournal update is brought to you by the Bettendorf Public Library, because once again, I have to type this damn thing here.

Is the ScW site working for you? It isn't for me. Maybe it's just not working because I'm in the library, or it doesn't love me anymore.

So right now I'm sitting here sore as hell. Why? Because I had wrestling school two days in a row with only four hours of sleep in between. We wrestled from 6pm to 9:30pm on Tuesday, and then from 8am to 11am on Wednesday morning. "Only four hours", you ask? Yeah, that damn Mortal Kombat Deception kept us up until four in the morning. Puzzle mode kicks ass.

Training is going really good. Wednesday sucked because I was tired as all hell and I have a cold, so the combination of the two made me feel a bit sick during practice. After practice Danny watched an old match between me and Colby, the one where I basically kill myself, yeah you know the one. That was pretty weird. He said we did cool stuff but basically didn't have much psychology, which we already knew. He'll watch our IPW match on Tuesday and hopefully he'll like it better, I did.

ROH on Saturday was a little disappointing. The undercard matches were all short and below average. But, the last three matches were pretty damn good. The hour time limit draw between Punk and Joe was really good and Foley and Steamboat cut a really funny promo on Ric Flair. I like Ric, but damn, that promo was one of the funniest things I had ever seen in wrestling, complete with a moc-Flair face bump and everything.

After Punk and Joe's match, I peeked through the curtain and saw Foley give Punk a high-five as soon as he stepped through. It's awesome to know that a man as revered as Mick appreciates and enjoys the new style of wrestling that is out there, and realizes that this is the future of professional wrestling. Punk said he was going to have another rematch with Joe in February when ROH comes back to Chicago. I hope he takes the title, I'm such a Punk mark...

This Saturday is IWA-MS' 8th anniversary show, and it should kick some mondo ass. I think it will be much better than the ROH show. Plenty of matches, with plenty of great names. Us "Rock Island boys", as Ian calls us, are doing ring crew, so we have to be there early. It's gonna be a long day, but it's gonna be a great day.

Hey, hey! I got a job at Movie Gallery in Bettendorf. Whoo-hoo! Finally I'm gonna have some money. Too bad I am going to owe my mom 60 bucks and I owe Colby 30 bucks. There goes most of the first paycheck. The rest will be gone when I give it to Danny for the next week's training. Craptastic. I actually work in an hour and a half, so I'm all dressed up at the library. I bet everybody wants to do me.

Fuck this entry and fuck this journal. I'm heading out. I'll update sometime again...probably. Until next time folks, this is Nick "The Product" Stonewall signing out!

My Comp Doesn't Work

2004-10-06T20:36:00Z

Yeah, so I'm at the library typing this, and I don't have much time, so I'm sorry for such a short update.

I have a bone virus thingy, and I have to take medicine for it. My joints swell up pretty bad and I'm not able to do anything. I was forced to skip the Chris Daniels training camp because of this, but I'm feeling much better now, and it should be going away soon.

I started wrestling school with Danny Daniels yesterday, and it was amazing. He said we did a really good job, and that we are now "his boys", which is something that means a lot to me. All I need now is to get some money together so that I can keep going. I'm going to donate plasma tomorrow to try and get some. If you know where I can get a job, or want to offer me one, drop me a line.

Come to ScW this weekend where the first ever tag-team champions of the new era will be crowned. Go Aisle 9!

Thanks for reading, and I hope to see you on Saturday.

Welcome Back

2004-09-29T06:53:04Z

Welcome back, Colby and Mike. I know you're both somewhat sad at coming home, but I know things will work out. I'm looking forward to going to AAW with you guys.

ScW show was good on Sunday. People seemed to like my match, so that's cool. Sorry about the nose, Elite.

For the past week all I've been drinking is water, and I've been running 2 miles everyday. That's pretty cool and I can feel the difference. I was less blown(tired) in the ring on Sunday too.

Christopher Daniels camp on Friday, that will be very good for me. It's kind of expensive, but it will be worth it. Hopefully I will have the money in time. On Friday is the NLW show with Chris Daniels vs. CM Punk. That should be a great match, and a great show all around.

RCW is on Saturday. Daniels is wrestling there too. This time against Acid. I think it's fair to say that Daniels vs. Punk will be significantly better than Daniels vs. Acid. No offense to Acid, I hear you're a great guy.

Next week I'm going to go check out AAW's training school in Berwyn, Illinois. Colby and I are heading up there, maybe a few of the other guys too. I hope that it's a good place, it should be with Danny Daniels as the trainer and all. If it is, then hopefully I'll start down my road to becoming a professional wrestler. It's not that expensive either.

Well, sorry for the spuratic update, but I'm kind of tired. Thanks for reading and check back next week for an update on the camp, the shows, and the AAW adventure.

Tired is the Name of the Game

2004-09-20T21:03:04Z

Long week. Long, long, long fucking week. Yet awesome fucking week at the same time. I'll tell you about it right now...

On Tuesday I finally convinced Krotch to go to IWA-MS with us on Wednesday because he couldn't make it to TPI on Friday or Saturday because he had a wedding to go to. Not his, because he will never get married. Anyways, I convinced them to stay the night in the QC so that we could leave on time in the morning. We were looking at a 7 hour drive ahead of us. We all decided to sleep at Ryan's house, as to save time in the morning. Yeah...we got about 3 hours of fucking sleep. Mostly my fault, Marcus' fault, and Pickle's fault, and Pickle wasn't even going to the show on Wednesday. At one point, Krotch was so pissed that he decided to go sleep in the car. 45 minutes later he returned more tired and even more pissed. LOL, that was some funny shit. So the morning comes and all of us tired ass people (Noch, Krotch, Marcus, and I) pile into the car and head off to Evansville, Indiana.

7 fucking hours later we arrive in Evansville, are greeted by Ian Rotten, and start to enjoy a great show courtesy of IWA-MS. AJ Styles vs. Matt Sydal and Chris Hero vs. American Dragon were the matches of the night. Other enjoyable matches included Claudio Castagnoli vs. Alex Shelley, Arik Cannon vs. Roderick Strong, and CM Punk vs. Petey Williams, even though Petey didn't come out with the damn World Title so we knew he wasn't losing.

After the show we hit up Hardees for some food and meet the most incompetent fast food employee in the history of the world. She was either A)Drunk, B) High, or C) just a giant fucking moron. I vote all three. After we eat we head out on the journey back home. I break my cardinal rule and sleep a little on the way home. Matt and Marcus switch off driving and surprisingly enough, we arive home alive. Congrats, Marcus.

Thursday was sleep day. We watched Smackdown at Ryan's with Marcus, and then went to Long John Silver's for some seafood delight. I got to announce an order over the microphone, which made my day. Yay, me!

Friday it was back on the road with Noch, Marcus, Rocko, and me. Thank God for a short trip to the TPI in Highland because I was dead. But nothing was going to stop me from having a great time at the TPI, not Noch's indecisiveness, not Marcus' stupidity, not the car being a fucking douchebag/douchebottle, nothing. And it didn't. The first night of the tourney was nothing short of spectacular. Punk vs. Aries, Dragon vs. Shelley, Quackenbush vs. Hero, Joe vs. Strong, AJ vs. Rave, ScW and John Calvin vs. Three pre-pubescent girls before the show...all of it was fantastic.

After the show we checked into the Amerihost Hotel and went to get some food. That took a long time considering it was 2:30 in the morning. Noch, Marcus, and I drove around for a long time listening to Bad Religion and talking until we finally gave in and ate at White Castle. I hate White Castle.

When we got back to the hotel we all decided to hit up the hot tub and the swimming pool. We met Ian Rotten, Austin Aries, and Lacey at the hot tub, and hung out and talked for awhile. We were there for a little while before we decided to walk around the hotel and see what other parties were going on (every wrestler was staying at this hotel, so you know there was going to be some parties), we ended up in a room with a girl with a broken foot. Weems played doctor for awhile before a drunk Austin Aries stumbled in and proceeded to get into a playful arguement with the broken footed female. It was absolutely hilarious. We all headed back to the hotel and tried to sleep. Key word: tried. Past history might have been an indication to that many ScW guys sleeping in a hotel room would keep us up all night. It did...almost. I got four hours of sleep.

In the morning we checked out, went to the IWA-MS Q&A, got food, then went for night two of the Ted Petty Invitational. Once again we weren't disappointed. Dragon, Joe, and AJ were in the finals, and it was the best finals in the TPI history. Actually I would venture to say that this was the best tournament in the history of American tourneys. Not even two idiot fans that almost got into altercations with wrestlers could ruin this tourney.

Afterwards we helped take down the ring, something we should be doing a lot more lately : ), and decided once again to pick up some food at the McDonalds we always stop at. Well, it seems we picked the wrong time to go there because right as we got there they had to restart the system. We ended up waiting to order food for 30 minutes. That's 30 minutes in the drive-thru mind you. I ended up babbling with the drive-thru attendant to everyones amusement for a long portion of that, until people started becoming restless. Just about that time the system went back up and we got our food.

The trek home was filled with great conversation, which was lead by Colby Lopez who made it back home for TPI and was driven home by us. I'll miss Colby's wisdom.

When I finally got home on Sunday at 8:00 AM I slept...for four hours. See I had to get up to see my girlfriend because she was in town and only until 5:30. I saw her for a little while, which was nice, seeing as I won't get to see her for another week. After she went home I went back to bed until 7:30 and then I watched the Dolphins lose again, this time to the Bengals. Damn those Bengals. Oh well.

Now it is Monday afternoon and I am typing the longest update in my LJ history. But alas, I must end this to go watch some wrestling at Regal's house. ROH DVD's baby!

Thanks for reading, and until next time, Goodbye Quad Cities!

Stairs Suck

2004-09-06T19:04:03Z

Because I can't walk down them. Ok, well I can, but it just takes me a hell of a lot longer now.

Why? Well, let me tell you, that is what this thing is for, isn't it?

It was Ace Steel. That damned Ace Steel. Nah, just fucking with ya. Ace Steel is the fucking man. I went to a training camp with him on Saturday, free training camp BTW (Thank you, Comic Book Guy Steve), Anyways, he killed us with calisthenics and squats and now my legs are dead. But I wouldn't have traded it for the world. Fun times, and a great experience.

After that I got into the show for free (Thank you Comic Book Guy Steve), and watched some pretty good wrestling. Jimmy Jacobs vs. Danny Daniels was awesome again. I love Jimmy. I wish I was him.

Colby got to wrestle. It would have been me, but I turned the offer down and offered it to Colby...mainy because I was scared shitless. I'm a pussy. But so was Colby because he was scared too. He did good though.

Best match of the night was Ryan Boz vs. CM Punk. I loves me some Punk too, as always. There was a Moonenites sign from ATHF, and as Punk passed, even though he was heel, he said "I am so down with that sign." Ah, Punk reaffirms his coolness.

Night ended with us Scott County Boys taking down the ring and heading home. I harrassed the McDonald's employees, as is customary now. Then went home and went to sleep. Boring, I know.

The next day, with my legs dead, I wrestled. It was a terrible match, as most of you already know if you were at the show. Ah, oh well, can't have the best match everytime. I'm not gonna dwell on it.

New script and new committee was elected after the show. I like the lineups. I think things will be really good. *Crosses Fingers*

No ScW show on Sept. 11th. It was moved to Sept. 26th. Also there is a ScW camp on Sept. 25th, and Krotch and I are the trainers. Yay! Two words: Gotch Bible!

Well, I should get off this damn thing before all of you fall asleep. Thanks for reading...if you managed to get to the end.

Go Gadget Go

2004-08-30T14:36:09Z

Welcome to the LiveJournal of current IPW superstar, Nick "The Product" Stonewall! That's right bitches, I actually got paid to wrestle! It was only $20 bucks, but for 10 minutes of work, it was well worth it. I wrestled Tahj the Destroyer, better known as Gixx or Colby. I wouldn't say it was the best match on the card...cough...shrug...wink...scratch my testicles, but I know we were invited back. I'll probably be coming back, but Colby will be in Ring of Honor wrestling school. Lucky man.

After the show I went over to Nevin's house for some post-show fun. There was a kid there who looked exactly like Matthew Broderick and talked exactly like Matthew Broderick, you know, all gay like. Well anyways, Weems showed up, so you know it was fighting time. Weems got Bobby and his brother to fight, which was some crazy, drunken madness right there, and he got Matthew Broderick, who was now being referred to as Inspector Gadget, and Bobby's brother to fight. That fight was by far the most entertaining one of the night. Bobby's brother got a punch in the face, while Gadget got a sweat kick to the face. After Gagdet lost that fight, Weems decided it was time to fight Gadget. This wasn't setting up to be pretty. And it wasn't. After about 9,324 shots to the stomach, kidneys, and lovehandles, Inspector Gadget shorted out. I went home shortly after, realizing nothing was going to top that.

So now I'm in Iowa City, spending a few days with my girlfriend. If you need to reach me, call my cell. I'll probably go hang out with Krotch, uh...I mean, go kick his ass, yeah that's what I mean. ; )

I love you all, and by love I mean absolutely despise. Thanks for reading!

It's Been Entirely Too Long...

2004-08-24T23:27:32Z

Whoo, sorry for the long wait. Like any of you missed it anyways.

I wrestled Keith on Saturday, and thought that the match was decent. It didn't go over too well on tape, but it was exactly what it was supposed to be. It wasn't supposed to be the best match of the night, so we didn't go out there and try to make it the best match of the night. Colt Cabana's match was the feature match, so we left it up to those four guys. Not like he needed it. Colt is awesome.

Speaking of Colt. I got to hang out with him all day on Saturday. Keith, Marcus, and I took him to Goodwill, Osco, and Hungry Hobo. He is the coolest, funniest guy I have ever met. I had some wrestling related problems that I talked to him about and he really cleared some things up for me. After the ScW show Colt came over to Nevin's house (or as Colt would say "Stretch's house") for the after party. At one point in the evening Colt's phone rings. After a few seconds of talking he yells for everyone to say hi to CM Punk! We were all stunned for a second but finally managed to yell hello at the top of our lungs. Fuckin' shit!

So then Colt invites me and Weems to hang out with him on Sunday at his apartment and run errands with him and then go to the wrestling show that he is wrestling on and hang out with him backstage. However, that never happened. Weems overslept and my car couldn't make it to Chicago so Colt had to leave, only for Weems to call 5 seconds after he is gone and ask if we are ready to go. I told him that Colt already left and sadness ensued, at least for me, I think Weems was pissed. He still wanted to go to the show, but I was running on four hours of sleep and was tired. So it was off to bed.

To recap: Colt is a really cool guy.

Come and check out Iowa Pro Wrestling this Saturday. I make my debut wrestling Gixx...and getting paid, hell yeah! It's in Delta, Iowa. Not sure where in Delta. Probably should figure that out.

Random Thoughts:

Never bowl 14 games of bowling in a row at 5 in the morning.

NLW gives the QC some amazing wrestling matches.

Bunker is nuts.

Keith is not very flexible.

'Noch sells birthday bumps.

Gaby from Taco Bell is cool because she gives us free food and drink at 1 in the morning.

Go to TPI on Sept. 17 & 18, it will kick major ass.

And on another side note: I might be wrestling overseas this next spring and getting paid to do so. Keep your eyes open for more updates about that. I have been told that it's pretty much a sure thing. Now I just need dates.

Well, so ends another session of LiveJournal madness. Thanks for reading, and see you in Hell!

Ouch...

2004-08-04T22:01:28Z

My arm hurts. I'm an idiot.

I was definately off my game this weekend.

ROH Made History

2004-07-26T17:29:16Z

ROH on Saturday was absolutely the greatest wrrestling show that I have ever been to. I feel like a part of history. Every single match, from top to bottom, was outstanding, and the last match was the greatest match that I have ever seen live, and maybe the greatest match that I have ever seen...period.

It was CM Punk and Ace Steel vs. BJ Whitmer and Dan Maff in a street fight. Now normally I don't like street fights/hardcore matches, but this match was done so perfect that everything worked. Every single person in the building was on their feet. People were climbing on the light posts (including me) to see the action. There were people on top of the bleachers and people standing on chairs just to witness every moment.

They used the weapons in a perfect way. They teased everything so as to make it seem that much more important. Everyone in the arena knew that the were witnessing something truly special. When they used the barbed wire board and the barbed wire two-by-four it was almost like you could feel it. At one point in the match CM Punk did a plancha from the top rope to the outside on to Dan Maff who was outstretched on a ladder that was propped on the gaurdrails. It was amazing!

And then there was the defining moment that everyone in attendance will never forget, and everyone not in attendance will be kicking themselves for missing. It was like a flashback to old ECW days. Punk and Ace asked for a few chairs and then started to throw them into the ring, and then more chairs were being thrown into the ring, and then more chairs, and then more chairs, until finally everyone started flinging chairs towards the ring. I actually hit BJ Whitmer in the back of the head with my chair. This continued on for at least a minute until finally every chair in the godforsaken building was inside the ring! It was other worldy! It was nothing like I had every experienced. And you know what makes it even greater than the ECW incident? They continued to wrestle the match! They wrestled on top of 300 hundred chairs!

Then finally the finish came with Ace Steel hitting a Tombstone Piledriver from the top rope through a table. The Second City Saints won! Everyone went nuts! I threw the pink Minnie Mouse hat I had been wearing inside of the ring out of pure excitement and it landed on the table, right next to BJ Whitmer. He was feeling around and picked it up, looked disgusted, and threw it out of the ring (I got it back after the show).

Even though I've tried, words cannot describe that show. Everyone unanamously agreed afterwards that it was the single greatest wrestling event that they had ever attended. And they were all telling the truth.

To everyone that went: I will always feel a special connection to you. We experienced this together, and it wouldn't have been as fun without each and every one of you. You know who you are.

To everyone that didn't go: I am truly sorry for your foolishness. The only thing you can do now is buy the tape and hope it does it justice. I doubt it will.

I will opely admit that I was close to tears at the end of the night. I felt a deep gratitude to all of the wrestlers that made that night so memorable. I got to express that to Colt Cabana and Samoa Joe, who had a tremendous title match earlier in the night. I hugged them both, and thanked them again and again. They looked greatly appreciative.

Wrestling can be graceful. And wrestling can be brutal. But when it is both at the same time, you know that it is honestly being done right.

ROH, Saturday, July 24th: a night I will never forget. A night where legends were made.

Thanks for reading.

Well just to let everyone know, Krotch and I will not be wrestling each other at NLW's show on the 30th. Our dark match was bumped off of the card. However, we will still be wrestling on the show in a battle royal. This is the 3rd battle royal I've done for non-ScW feds. I'm disappointed, but hey, at least I get to be on the card instead of a dark match. I bet you we'll get the crap kicked out of us and be eliminated 1st and 2nd, but hey, the guys we're wrestling against deserve it more than we do.

If you're looking for something interesting to read, go check out Dave Prazak's livejournal. I thought that it was a very cool read.

Sorry about the short update, but I got things to do. Hopefully I can update soon.

BTW, I'm really fucking excited for ROH this weekend. It should be a really great show, and the addition of Low Ki only makes it better. Cya!

Minimizing the Pooch

2004-07-15T21:39:57Z

Ahh, the Pooch. What I affectionately named my lower stomach and lovehandle region. You know, I have never once been held on to by the lovehandles during lovemaking, causing me to question the title of that particular portion of my body. Nonetheless, it is time to really start the long process of eliminating the Pooch.

So today after watching the four man iron man match at ROH's Crowing a Champion involving Spanky, Doug Williams, Low Ki, and Christopher Daniels, I was motivated to work out.

I decided to go running on my route that I had done so many times before only a summer ago. No matter that it was in the 90 degree temperature range, or that I hadn't done a heavy running workout in a long time, I was motivated, and damnit, I was going to run.

So about 2 miles later, I arrived back at my house and proceeded to nearly puke my guts out. Isn't working out fun? Anyways, it is definately something that needs to be done if I ever want to make it as a professional wrestler.

Watching those four guys in the ring made me realize that I have a long way to go in he body department, let alone the wrestling aspect as well. Ace Steel is going to kill me on the 7th.

I guess I did well considering my back was still very sore from Saturday's ladder match, and I am completely out of shape, but I know I can do better. Today was only the beginning, and tomorrow, I'll get back out there and do it all over again.

Yeah Baby!!!

Until next time, this has been Nick "The Product" Stonewall, keeping you informed and completely un-entertained!

Thanks

2004-07-12T20:33:05Z

So after Saturday, I believe I have some thank-you's to dish out.

First I would like to say thank you to Keith, Marcus, and Matt, for being in the match with me. I can't imagine having that match with any other three guys. Special thanks to Marcus and Matt for being willing to take the moves that I did. That takes balls.

I would also like to thank the script and committee for allowing the match to happen. The high ceiling added to the match tremendously.

Thanks must also go out to the fans of ScW. Thanks for showing up and cheering until your voices were hoarse. Props to you guys for staying into a match that lasted (I heard)nearly 40 minutes. I hope we gave you guys something to remember.

I heard from many people that our ladder match was the best match in ScW history, and I would like to let everyone know how much that means to me. To have that match exceed in peoples minds, Static vs. Ben at Ressurecion, Gixx vs. Jerkel when the top rope broke, Nevin vs. Elite and the infamous trash can to the head, The first strap match with ABC and Steven, God vs. Ben vs. Shuggah, it literally blows my mind. And those are only a few of the many great matches ScW has seen over the years. My deepest thanks go out to everyone in ScW. All of you are truly my friends.

Now, I hope that I can go back out there next time, and give you fans something else to remember! Thanks for reading.

WWE Loves Nazis and a MAJOR Announcement

2004-06-30T23:25:55Z

JB-Hitler is the new WWE champion...

Wow, and I heard that he was supposed to be punished. WWE sure has gotten tough with it's punishments lately. Maybe if I dress up as a member of the KKK I'll get to be ScW champ. Ehh, I'll pass.

BTW, the Great American Bash the worst PPV I've ever had the displeasure of witnessing. Smackdown is almost unwatchable nowadays, good thing I usually work on Thursdays.

Now, for a few announcements:

For those of you that don't know, the main-event of NLW's next show on July 30th will be...drumroll please...CM Punk vs. AJ Styles! Do not miss this match. Also on the show will be an 8 man tourney for the NWA-Iowa Championship and...ME! Yes you heard that right, I will be wrestling for NWA-NLW against K-Buff. It will be a dark match of sorts, that will start 15 minutes before the actual show is supposed to start. The Evil Bros. made it official at The Bash.

Both of us would just like to give a big thanks to the Evil Bros. for giving us a chance, and being such great guys. This means a lot to both of us, and we will try our best to put on a good opening match for you guys. Once again, THANKS A LOT!

Ok, now I'm nervous. Think about it for a second, Krotch and I will be wrestling on the same show as Punk vs. AJ...wow!. It'll be really cool to be in the same locker room as all those guys including Jimmy Jacobs, Colt Cabana, Ace Steel, Danny Daniels, etc...

It's the opening match so don't expect a super-long high flying expo out there. We're going to keep is simple so that 1) We don't fuck up, and 2)We don't do a lot of the moves that other guys planned on doing. If we stick to that, we think we'll be ok. Come and enjoy a great show. You won't regret it. Go to NLWrestling.com for details.

Thanks for reading this journal, and until next time, PEACE OUT!

Marcus owes me 22 dollars.

2004-06-23T18:26:19Z

So Saturday is my birthday, and I'll be the big 1-8...that's 18. Happy birthday me! Hopefully I'll do something fun, it's up in the air right now.

ScW had a show last Saturday. Execution, ahhh, urrghhh, grunt-grunt, everyone be scared. Ok, so the name wasn't that good, but the show apparently was. I main-evented, again, and this time I was told things went a lot better. It was the infamous hair-vs-hair match between K-Buff and me, and guess what? Yeah, I won. Krotch is bald, baby! I really enjoyed the match, and except for a few minor slip-ups, thought it went really well. It was great to have a match that I was completely satisfied with when I went back through the curtain again. Krotch is a great wrestler and I find I always have my best matches when I work with him.

So on to Resolution (better name) and the final match of our best of 5 series. As announced at Execution it will be a tag-team ladder match. There will be a trophy hung high in the rafters, and we four will risk life and limb to get to that trophy, and the one who finally has it in his grasp will claim victory not only for his team, but for all of mankind!!! Or something like that. It should be fun, oh and I'll probably die.

Marcus you owe me 22 dollars.

I've ordered a lot of tapes from Superbeast Craig, so I've been watching those a lot lately. Some aren't the best quality, but I still like them. The Best of the East Coast Indy's has been really good so far. A lot of really good solid wrestling on those tapes. Once again, I suggest getting tapes from him if you are looking into it, you won't be disappointed.

Oh, and Marcus you owe me 22 dollars.

I've been really into Samoa Joe lately, so if anyone would like to be really cool and let me borrow some Samoa Joe shit, then that would be awesome. Also if anyone has a best of American Dragon tape, it would be cosmically cool if you let be borrow that as well. Thank You.

JBL should be fired.

It is rumored that Jeff Hardy will wrestle AJ Styles tonight on TNA. Who cares. All I care about is who AJ is wrestling on NLW's next show on July 30th. Oooh, I can't wait.

Marcus you still owe me 22 dollars.

That is all for today. Check back every day religously, because I might just update. Or don't, it really isn't that cool anyways. : ) Cya!

Must've Been a Holiday...

2004-06-13T22:03:41Z

Because CM Punk updated his journal. Go read it. I agree completely with everything he said.

IWA-MS was awesome. The drive was not, but it was still worth it.

And to break fabe and get everyone pissed...I rode with Krotch, Fatass, and wise ref Noch.

Short update, but that's ok, because you still love me. Until next time...

Nick "The Product" Stonewall

Ch-Ch-Ch-Changing

2004-06-10T04:16:42Z

Look for some major changes in ScW very soon. Some behind the scenes, some for all to see. There should be some exciting times ahead.

I haven't updated this thing in awhile, well at least awhile for me. Everyone else seems to update their journal once every few months, but I try to keep everyone informed.

Friday is inching closer, and I'm more excited than a fag eating a hotdog! (No offense to any homo's.) Punk vs. Hero will be awesome! Keith says he'll probably go, and that's pretty surprising considering Keith doesn't usually go to many Indy shows. This one should be one for the ages.

Other matches include Samoa Joe vs. Homocide, Alex Shelley vs. Jimmy Jacobs (HUSS) in a cage match, Boz and Bradley vs. Dunn and Marcos, Austin Aries vs. Matt Sydal, and others. This is gonna make me cream. I should bring extra shorts.

Go to the NLW show on July 30th. There will be some great matches that you'll regret missing if you don't go. Trust me. Go.

Random Thoughts:

1) It's getting harder to think, my head's too large. I should go. AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

See yall's later!

All I Wanna do is Zooma Zoom in your Boom Boom

2004-06-04T17:47:22Z

Hi everybody! Hi Dr. Nick!

I'm back with a less somber post this time, and I bet you're excited. So let's get down to some going-ons in ProductLand.

I make my debut for RCW tomorrow night, and I can honestly say that I'm a little nervous. I'm not scared about the match really, (considering it's only a Battle Royal) I'm more nervous about the way people are going to view me backstage. I don't want to fuck anything up before I get it, so I'm wondering how these pro guys backstage are going to feel about a "yarder" kid coming in and working their show. Danny (McKay) says not to worry and that everyone will be cool, and Krotch only had good things to say about his time spent in the RCW locker room last month, so I guess I should just stop being a little pussy and just see what happens. Anyways, it should be a blast and I know that I'll have a few good stories to tell when it's over.

A couple nights ago I finally got to see "When Hero met Punk", and let me tell you, it is definately everything it's cracked up to be. That 93 minute match was off the hook. Everything in it was so well done and so well set up that the when they finally took it home, an hour and half after it started, the fans were utterly and completely into every chop, stomp, cravate, shining wizard, and everything else. Thank you Timothy Regal for letting me borrow it.

This morning I watched the CM Punk shoot interview, and that was very entertaining as well. I am a complete Punk mark. But for good reason. If you don't like Punk as a wrestler then you probably need to re-evaluate yourself as a wrestling fan. That man is a genious...a pure genious. I suggest checking out some tapes of his if you're not too familar with his work, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Now for some ScW news. Our next show is called Execution. That's retarded. I hope 'Noch posts his ideas for show names soon, because I can't stand another name like the ones we've been having. 'NOCH HURRY!

I thought my match at Unleashed was decent. I thought the fans thought it was boring because they are used to seeing me fly, and I just didn't do much of that. It was basically a handicap match, which means that Elite and Ironside were working on me the whole time, which means no "flippy-whirly-flying-do-da's" (ask Krotch likes to call them). Plus, the ceiling is low anyways. I thought we managed to tell a good story though, which makes me happy. Elite said it was pretty good, and if Elite likes it, then I like it.

So now on to "Execution", and a hair vs. hair match with K-Buff. Can anybody see either one of us without our hair? All I know is, that after the match someone is going bald, and I hope it's not me. Although, that would greatly cut down on shower time...hmmm. I'm a fag.

Hey...I'm done with school. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I've been waiting for this since the first day of school I ever went to. My graduation is on Sunday, then after that, I hope I never set foot into another school again...unless it's wrestling school, which I most definately plan on attending in one year's time. Hecks yeah!

Random Thoughts:

1) I like fried Turkey and Swiss.

2) Maggie Moo's is good but expensive.

3) Announcing girl's softball pays well.

4) My head has become so large that I can barely hold it up anymore. People must drag me by my feet while my head scrapes the ground because it has become ultimately impossible for me to walk anymore.

5) Next time you see Ref 'Noch, make him do the Rainman. It is hilarious.

Well, I suppose that is all for this time. Chris Hero finally updated his journal after about 2 1/2 months so go check it out. I will be busy for the next few days, but I'll try to update whenever possible. But, for now, watch your wrestling and stay clean kiddies. Cya!
