“My Family Is My Strength”
Austin Ramsey gets out of the Lyft, walks around the car, opens the door on Todrick’s side, and helps her out of the vehicle. The driver places their bags on the sidewalk. Todrick grabs the gym bags as Austin grabs a baggage cart and puts all of the bags on it. They both walk inside the luxurious Wynn hotel. Austin hands her the keys after they check-in, and they head toward the elevators.
Todrick Tabor-Ramsey: “Home Sweet Home. It feels good to be back in Vegas.”
Austin Ramsey: “Vegas is where we met, so it will always be special to me. I remember all the flights I used to catch to come here to “woo” you and then try to convince you to move to New York and move in with me.”
Todrick Tabor-Ramsey: “Yeah, that moving in with you was supposed to be temporary until I found a place in Manhattan.”
Austin Ramsey: “Ain’t shit temporary when it comes to us, Baby.”
Todrick giggles as Austin leans over to steal a quick kiss from her. They get off the elevator and head to their room. Todrick opens the door and sees the rose petals on the floor and the candles lighting a path. She looks at Austin and covers her mouth. He motions for her to keep going into the room. There is chilled champagne and two glasses. A large teddy bear holding a box of chocolates and rose petals on the bed in the shape of a heart. She is speechless, and Austin closes the room door, walks over to her, stands behind her, and embraces her.
Austin Ramsey: “I know we are in Vegas for business, and we have a Triple Threat Tag Team Showcase to compete in on WGWF Brawl in two days, but I will never forget that you are my number one priority. My family always comes first.”
Austin kisses her neck, unloads the luggage, grabs the luggage cart, and exits the room. The other Austins were silent inside his head, and he only felt happiness. That was his mood over the last few months. He had finally allowed himself to accept that things were going right in his life. It was hard for him to let that sink in because it was usually only a matter of time before things went to hell in a handbasket for him. Todrick always brought out the best in him, and the two of them as a tag team had proven that over in OPW, where they were the Immortal Tag Team Champions, but they needed to prove that in the WGWF.
The elevator stops at the lobby, and Austin wheels the cart to the appropriate area. He looks around the lobby and smiles. This is what Todrick deserves, and it was what he deserved. Soon the King and Queen would emerge and take their rightful place on the throne as the WGWF Tag Team Champions. There was the matter of the fight for it, and it began when they faced The Commonwealth (Dickie Watson and Aiden Reynolds) and Sabian Wraith and Dean Harper. They were familiar with both Dickie Watson and Aiden Reynolds from their time in FIGHT NYC. The other two they had only seen on Twitter.
Austin hated the unknown, but all wasn’t lost; he had time to research them. It was imperative that they had a good showing; Toddy was always saying you are only as good as your last match. Neither of them could rest on accomplishments they had in other promotions. They needed to introduce themselves as title-worthy contenders to the WGWF audience. This was no new promotion, and many of the previous faithful fans were only tuning in to see their heroes and villains of yesteryear. They would win them over from the moment they hit the stage. This was their fate; it was their destiny. Together, there was nothing the Ramseys could not accomplish. It was why they were given the moniker of “The Show Stealerz” over in OPW. That nickname fit because it was what they did every time they made their presence felt.
He breaks out of his thoughts and begins walking back toward the elevators. He sees a group of people of all ages headed toward him. They surround him and start asking for pictures and autographs. Unlike the earlier days, when people were only focused on Toddy, they knew who he was from wrestling, The Life NY reality series he was on, and his Twitter antics. People actually wanted him, and it didn’t matter if Toddy was there or not. That was a big deal to him. He smiled and accommodated each person with their requests. Then he had a request of his own; he asked them to go live on their social media platform of choice and film him as he was going to talk about his upcoming WGWF debut match.
Austin Ramsey: “Sup y’all? Special shout out to all of Toddy’s Rockstars that will be watching this. The Queen is upstairs getting ready to receive the King, but I’m here in beautiful Las Vegas to make my WGWF debut in a Triple Threat Tag Team match. I know when y’all saw that listed on the card, you were all tingly on the inside as well you should be. Toddy and I have come here to ascend to the top of the tag team division as we have done over in OPW.
Now let’s be clear about one thing, we aren’t going to cling to the legacy we’ve made in other wrestling promotions because we have proved to the world that we have what it takes when it matters the most. My resume may not be as impressive as my beautiful wife’s is, but I ain’t no slouch. I’ve proven that I know how to make an impact that will change the entire landscape of the game. Together as the powerhouse couple that you know us to be, there is nothing that we cannot do.
We have proven that we are worthy of stepping in the ring against The Commonwealth and Sabian Wraith, and Dean Harper. They are obviously names that most will recognize from their work in this industry, and that is nothing to scoff at. I’m not going to sit here and regurgitate their stats because the only thing that matters in WGWF is what you do in that ring, under those lights, in front of the fans. They have all proven that they have what it takes to put on great matches but so have we. Am I afraid of them? Fuck No!
What they should be afraid of is facing off against an Austin that is rational, happy, and that will do anything for his family. I make wise choices now and pick my spots and my moments. I know how to switch up the entire game to keep them on their toes, and Toddy does as well. We are a force to be reckoned with. No amount of arrogance or spouting off your history will be something you can hide behind when we step into that ring. You aren’t facing the Austin or the Todrick you have seen in other promotions. You are facing the WGWF version of The Ramseys.
A solid and united front with a bond that is indestructible. A family that has trained together notice I didn’t say a team, that’s because teams are formed and broken, but family is forever. That’s a powerful thing. Toddy is my family, which is the strength that keeps me going. I won’t stop until that bell rings and The Show Stealerz is victorious. Many people say it’s not personal, just business, but family is personal, and I owe it to my wife to be at the top of my game with each match and each appearance we make. I need to be the best version of Austin at all times.
There are many strategies that need to be employed in a triple threat tag match, and we have practiced them all. We have prepared for the scenarios we may find ourselves in, and we are ready. We can also adapt and overcome things our opponents may throw at us. It took hard work and dedication, but we have spent time studying and training to be one of the greats. We know what our opponents are capable of, and we respect that. One mistake could prove to be very costly when you face people who have carried entire companies on their backs. We have added that to our resume as well, so we know what it takes to be the breakout stars that can lead the company to ultimate success and wealth.
We will prove that we are the ones to watch in WGWF because with this roster, it will be easy to be lost. We will show the world that our names deserve to be a part of the conversation whenever WGWF is mentioned. The Show Stealerz will be a household name when this is all said and done. That is a check that you can take to the bank and cash. To all the Rockstars, thank you for buying tickets to the show, and those at home, make sure you tune in and give Toddy and me all your love. We can feel it and use it to bring you five-star quality matches each time you see us. We love you right back, and we hope you know that. That’s my time, folks; Austin loves you, Toddy loves you, and we will see you soon.”
Austin smiles, nods, and they stop recording. He gives them all high-fives as he heads back to the elevators to join his Queen.
