It's been just about a week since Billy and Joe defended their titles at the 8 year celebration show, and it was at that show in which Billy and Joe were successful in retaining their titles. For Joe, he could swipe the sweat from his forehead and take a sigh of relief and relax in knowing that he won't go down in the books as the Champs who couldn't defend their titles at least once. Deep down his fear was that he would end up like Robb Daniels. A champion in name only, not a true fighting champion.
For Billy, it was another reason to throw a party. He defended his title and kept it. Break out the beer.
It was a party at his camper in his cousin's field that last 3 days and nights. You know it was a good party because the cops were called there 4 times. "Disturbing the peace" was the charge they were threatened with which was laughable because the nearest neighbor was over a mile away, and the cattle don't have cell phones. This party is also noteworthy as this was the party is which Cindy and Billy broke up when Cindy caught Billy hooking up with her hated boss Beth. It's probably safe to say that Cindy is looking for a new job now too......
Friday November 29th....
Inside of Joe's gym where he and Nanook are standing next to the ring waiting on Billy to show up. They took a couple of days off for Thanksgiving and today it's the day that they get back to work. Joe wants to work with Billy on a couple of things inside the ring as Joe is pretty sure Billy didn't keep to his workout regime over the holiday. In fact no one is sure what Billy was up to as Nanook flew home to spend time with Summer. So today is back to work day and as they wait for Billy, Joe is checking his phone as Nanook comes walking into the gym with his coffee mug in hand.
"So did you see who we got next week?"
Nanook takes a sip of his coffee. "Nope. Summer banned me from the phone for the last 4 days. I don't have a clue what is going on."
"And how is this different from any other time?"
"Yeah I know."
Nanook sets his coffee down on the mat and pulls out his phone and turns it on for the first time since Saturday. Joe has a concerned look on his face.
"So in Canada. How did Billy do in that tag match with the Yakamoto sisters?"
Nanook sighs "That was rough, not because it was his first match but because he didn't want to fight a girl. And since there was two of them......it was struggle."
Joe sets his phone down and rubs his face. "Great!"
"Why? oh! OH!"
Nanook pulls up his messages and discovers why Joe was asking. "Emma Douglas.....awesome."
"Did he get over it and fight them?"
Nanook closes his eyes and nods his head slightly. "Half way through the match he got with it, but he didn't like it at all and he told me after the match he'll never do that again."
"I was afraid of that. Man....."
Joe tries to think of how he's going to get Billy through this match. The gears are grinding away in his head on how to approach this match. Nanook crosses his arms and leans up against the ring.
"He was adamant that he didn't like facing a women after that match in Canada. His gut was all upset before and after the match. He hated that he had to wrestle a girl."
Joe shakes his head. "The only thing I can think of is I'll fight Emma and tag him in when Archer is in the ring."
"And as soon as Archer can get the advantage he'll tag in Emma and Billy will fold right then and there."
"I know....this sucks. And we have the tag coronation cup coming up and you know if we face them in the first round, or the second round, or in the finals, we're done. There is no way we're winning."
"I know."
A couple of minutes go by without a word from either one of them. Finally the door to the gym opens and stumbling in is NASCAR Billy sporting his new Jimmy Johnson 6 time championship jacket and hat. You can tell he is a tad hung over. He wanders over towards where Joe and Nanook are both leaning up against the ring staring at him. Billy thinks their mad at him for being late. He takes his jacket off and sets it on a weight bench. That's when we see that Billy has a bandage over his right arm up by his shoulder.
"What did you do?" Joe instantly asks thinking Billy cut himself or something.
"Sorry I'm late. This? I got a tattoo."
Joe rolls his eyes. Nanook takes a sigh of relief. "Tat of what?" he asks.
You can Billy doesn't want to show off his new ink but gives in and pulls back the bandage to reveal his bold "Cindy" Tattoo.
"Who the F*** is Cindy?"
"Wow you two must be serious." Nanook says but Billy lowers his head.
"We broke up yesterday. She caught me with her boss fooling around."
Joe covers his face with his right hand and shakes his head. Nanook wants to laugh but fights the urge. "Okay?" He says instead.
"Man this sucks. I really liked her too. I'm such a idiot."
Joe pushes himself off of ring. "So we're fighting Archer and Emma Douglas next week. Non title match. I know how you feel about fighting the girls, but Billy......I don't know what to tell you. Emma is manly enough looking chick so just think about her as if she was a dude. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you other than get your shit together."
And then Joe slaps Billy right in his new tat which only stings like a mother and Billy grabs his arm and wants to scream but nothing comes out.
FTB.
