Chapter 165 Wrestling, With A Crazy Fetish:>Ep32

• Believe it or not, it's possible for our line of work to feel boring. Stagnant. Or repetitive. We go through the motions as much as anyone else and their jobs. Travel arrangements to different cities can be dull and painstaking. Registering at a hotel is annoying if the promotion hasn't provided one. Journeying to the venue can become problematic if you can't find a ride. Even finding a place to eat dinner after the show is troublesome because most places are closed by that time. But all of those issues still magically disappear the moment you hear the roar of the crowd.
• However, the last several months became a massive blur for me. Many good matches. A few bad ones. Concluding old stories and beginning new ones. Getting to have some really memorable moments, and some easily forgotten. Not to discredit everyone I worked with, but a lot of it just felt like "days at the office". Wake up, travel, register, wrestle, eat, sleep, repeat. The routine never got easier. Even in the loving company of my girlfriend.
• By now, everyone knew Carmen and I were together. So just like many couples in the industry, we were paired together on a regular basis. Whenever I was in the ring, she was at ringside. I did the same for her during her matches. And the fans truly got into us being together. Natural chemistry. A power couple. Still, it all felt like a blur. Then one day I received some of the best news I had in a long time, professionally speaking.
