The losing streak was over. I had done away with Axis on OCW Anarchy like I had promised. There was still much going on in my personal, as well as my professional, life. The whole world had seen me, the girlfriend of Daniel Ramsey, holding hands with a woman at the Statue of Liberty. My mind was wandering as I heard Rosa's voice. "Brooke, are you listening?"
"Huh?" I was busted. I hadn't heard a word Rosa had said. I shook my head side to side as I spoke again. "I'm sorry. This tabloid bullshit is just getting to me."
Rosa joined me on the couch as she hugged me tightly. She smiled as she spoke in a soft, uplifting voice. "I get it. Have you talked to Daniel?"
I nodded as I rubbed my arm slightly. "I have but, I don't know. Seeing as our relationship is still new I just don't want him to look at me as a bad person. I mean, I publicly kissed Zoe on FCW but that was a bit different. That was a shock value type thing. This is something that could potentially make me seem like a worse person than when I turned my back on Junko. I don't regret anything I just… I wish I could live my life in private."
Rosa nodded as she played with my hair. "Unfortunately this is the life we chose. With the internet getting more and more widely spread and us being in the public eye, these things will continue to happen. Didn't it happen when you were in gymnastics as well?"
I shook my head as I softly spoke again. "Not quite to this magnitude. I think pro wrestling is more widely watched and appreciated than collegiate gymnastics. This is just really affecting my focus. I have some big things coming up and I need to focus. I'm gonna go to the gym. I'll be back later."
I hugged Rosa as I grabbed my gym bag and walked out the door. Truth be told, I needed a bit of me time to think.

"It's the same old song and dance it seems. I was on the rise here in WGWF. I was so close to preparing to take on Cholo on this day but instead I am relegated to a night one match against Nick Danger. Nick, you and I have been at the top of the top and we are sitting at the bottom at the moment. The difference between you and I is I am not ok being at the bottom. I feel like you are someone who is comfortable with no attention on you. Lately, I have been getting the wrong kind of attention.
People seem to forget that I pushed Jim Caedus to the limit. They seem to forget that I was a hand away from winning the four way ladder match. They seem to forget that I am a former champion.
Here is the thing. Ultimately I am still a Rookie. I'm going to make mistakes. I'm twenty two and have been professionally wrestling for seven months. People seem to conveniently forget that when I lose to the likes of Alexandra Callaway and Johnny Bacchus. They seem to not want to give me a chance to prove myself."
I stood up out of my chair and limped around a bit. I winced with each step. My knee was still injured a bit. I spoke again. "So many people have told me not to show weakness. Don't let them see you pain but sometimes we can't help it. Nick, you're going to focus on my knee. I already know this. I have been going to physical therapy. Two weeks ago I was fifty percent. Now I'm about seventy five percent. The thing is, Brooke Blakely at seventy five percent is still better than Nick Danger at one hundred percent. You are not ready for this. You are not ready to step into the ring with me. If you lose to me, it's just another day at the office. If I lose to you, I'll never hear the end of it. This isn't IWF. This is WGWF, home of the stars. This is the Hollywood of wrestling and you are a peasant among royalty. I will end your WGWF career at Summer Madness and then I will focus on bigger and better things. I am back bitches!"
