Daddy, are you an internet troll?
Samuel Chatman holds his daughter’s hand as they walk around the fountain in the park. He would have to catch a flight to New York later and wanted to spend time with her. They sit on a park bench, and she looks up at him.
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”Daddy, what is an internet troll?”
Sam looks down at her with a puzzled look on his face.
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“Where did you hear that term, baby girl?”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”They called you a troll on the blogs. They said you have been trolling some man named Damage, a nice man named John Cable who helps people, and Uncle Austin.”
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“What did Daddy tell you about reading the blogs on the internet? You shouldn’t be reading that kind of stuff; you’re too young.”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”That does not answer my question, Daddy.”
Sam tries not to laugh. She was growing up so fast; she was almost seven now. That curiosity was from her mother. The stubborn will was a gift from both of them.
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“Daddy is not going to win this, is he?”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”Do you ever?”
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“Well, you know how Daddy plays a character on TV? This is that but on Twitter. Daddy has been in a back-and-forth with Mr. Damage so that we keep people interested in watching us when we have a big match. As a matter of fact, Daddy will be in a tag team match against him this Monday on Brawl.”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”Is he the mean man that tackled you a few weeks ago?”
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“That move was called a spear, and yes, that was him. But he is a nice man in real life, remember it’s for TV, baby. Just like one of the characters in your books.”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”What about Mr. Cable?”
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“Mr. Cable is a nice man. He has a foundation that helps a lot of people. He had a match with Damage that same night of the spear. He is going through a tough time right now, and Daddy saw an opportunity to drum up attention for all three of us. Mr. Cable is a lot better at Twitter than he thinks he is. I think he has fun when we go back and forth on Twitter.”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”You are always picking on Uncle Austin; you need to be nicer to him.”
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“Honestly, baby, and don’t ever tell him this. Uncle Austin is like the little brother I never had. We love one another, but that’s how brothers play sometimes. Uncle Austin means the world to your Aunt Toddy, so he also means the world to Daddy. I’d hurt someone if they hurt him. On TV, many fans know there was some bad history with me and Uncle Austin when he was confused inside of his head, so we play that up for the cameras and on social media sometimes. We have a big match coming up on Valentine’s Day, so Daddy had to mess with him on Twitter to make the match worth watching. Uncle Austin is a good guy on TV, so he can’t be mean to Daddy unless Daddy aggravates him first.”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”Sounds good, Daddy, but are you sure Uncle Austin knows that?”
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“I suppose one of him does. Are you satisfied little one?”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”After you buy me some ice cream and a new doll.”
🐺 Samuel Chatman 🐺
“Your mother taught you that, didn’t she?”
💝 Whitney Chatman 💝
”Silly Daddy, why would I tell you that?”
She hops down and pulls his hand, and he stands up. He looks at her and shakes his head. He smiles, and the two walk off toward the ice cream parlor.
The Process
Later in the day, Sam Chatman landed in New York and was picked up by Austin Ramsey. He tried to talk to Austin, who simply handed him a note.
“Toddy says I’m not supposed to talk to you unless I’m going to be nice. I have no intention of being nice to you until after I bash your skull in at the PHW Showcase. Buckle up, sit there, and don’t touch anything.”
Sam chuckles and notices Dominic and Diana strapped into their car seats which is a relief because Austin was always on his best behavior when they were around. Probably another Toddy safety measure. He chuckled and buckled up. They drove off in silence, and when they got home. Austin ignored Sam and grabbed one of the twins, and Sam grabbed the other. Toddy comes out and hugs Sam. She intentionally takes Dominic from Austin, forcing him to help with Sam’s bags. He grumbles under his breath, and they walk into the house.
Sam saw the MIL cameras filming them and laughed. He could use that to his advantage later. He follows Austin up to the guest room. Austin wants to throw the bags, but he isn’t sure if Toddy followed them. He takes Diana from Sam, farts, and quickly exits the room closing the door. Sam shakes his head and sees one of the camerapersons still filming him. He shrugs, kicks off his shoes, and plops on the bed. He opens his laptop, and there is a video of John Blade wrestling; beside it is another video of Addison Andrews.

“Hello, boys and girls, and Damage. Today, I will let you in on my process for getting ready for a match like the one I have coming up on WGWF Brawl, where I don’t know much about my partners or two of my opponents. I’ve spent the last week studying films of matches with Mike Angelo and Vittore Costa to help prepare for them. I need to see how they move, what tells they have before they attempt certain moves, and what they are willing to do to win a match. Even though I have wrestled Damage in the past, I watched film of him in his heyday, you know, back when he was younger and somewhat decent in the ring.
John Cable proved that this comeback tour is a farce, as I’ve been telling everyone since January. Did he get the best of our exchange on the last Brawl? I could see how you think so, but I gave as good as I got. Then we got arrested for our troubles, and now I bet he thinks he is thug life. I can see him stumbling around in the dark at his run-down shack with a teardrop tattoo under his eye and a bandana around his mouth. I’m sure he has no friends to tell him how pathetic his new look is. Knowing him, he probably hasn’t attempted to speak to his partners because he feels like he can just come to the ring and do everything in the match by himself. I welcome that arrogance because it will be his undoing.
I may not know John Blade or Addison Andrews, but the second I saw that we booked as a team, I hit both of them up, and we all sent each other tapes of our best and worst matches. That’s what a team captain does; they step up to the plate and take control of the team. We talked every day, comparing notes and working on moves that would complement each of us in the ring. John Blade is a legend in his own right, but he has been a good teammate. The same can be said for Addison Andrews; we even met in the gym, worked out, and sparred together. That’s how a real team looks and moves, Damage.
What has your team done together? You all seem like a team full of egos, and everyone thinks they are the breakout star of the team. You don’t have the guts to take control of the situation because let’s be clear, everyone wants to see the two of us fight, and all eyes will be glued on us, which makes us the team captains by default. I know you aren’t used to anyone really watching your matches, but you lucked out when you pulled me as an opponent. I suppose you see that now; it could’ve all been so simple if you would’ve just shown up, got put down, and exited quietly when we were first scheduled to have a match. Now I have to expose you for the washed-up piece of swamp beetle dung that you are.
You wouldn’t know how to operate on a team if your life depended on it; you are selfish and make everything about you, and that is why I know we are going to win. You couldn’t beat a man with one knee; now you think you have a chance with a perfectly healthy young stud? You’re joking, right? It appears that Raven and Page think so because they knew you would need help, but given whom they paired you with, they don’t really expect you to win. Costa is “Ace’s” sidekick; without Ace, he is a man in a suit pretending to be a wrestler. I watched Toddy and Austin knock them off with ease. I happen to be good friends with two people who were more than willing to tell me everything about beating him. I shared all that knowledge with my partners.
As far as Mike Angelo goes, I paid attention to him, and he gets overconfident, which leads to complacency; distracting him won’t be too much of a problem, and that’s when we take him out. Yes, I said we, something that is not in your vocabulary, Damage; I’ll wait while you look it up. Do you even have the internet? You don’t look like the book type of guy, so there’s that. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the lot of you end up not showing up for your match. That’s the example you have set for them as a leader, Damage. I still laugh at the fact that you call yourself a demon, that was cute with the lights on the last Brawl, but you will need more than a light show when we come face to face.
I make you this promise Damage, every time we are on WGWF programming, I will expose you for what you really are until there is nothing left by the time we get to WrestleWars 8. The world needs to know, but more importantly, you need to know who you are so you can leave this business again. Maybe you will stay gone this time because you don’t belong here. You never did. All right, boys and girls, it’s time for me to say farewell. All that needs to be said has been said. Now it’s time for me to do what no one else will and send the demon back to hell.”
Sam flashes a confident grin at the camera and waves. He continues to watch his laptop as the scene fades.
