10:57 am - Fuck it. My version.
The weekend stories are coming........
OK OK OK its about time.
Normally I believe what happens in a locker room STAYS in a locker room.
Recently I was directed to a article describing incidents involving every ones favorite "shoot" (whatever) about Teddy Hart. You know its amazing that I try to be the most press friendly person I can be. I often repsond to e-mails whenever I can but I have been avoided like the plaugue by most media outlets covering all this bullshit, because its just better to paint me as the monster in all of this. Well guess what, fuck your fairy tale cause the monster has some shit to clear up.
Here is how it went down and here is what hand I played in all this.
After the Scramble cage I was sitting in the locker room prepping up and stretching. I watched absolutely NONE of the match, but after it was over participants in the match busted through the door and it was chaotic in the lockeroom. People screaming for Teddy's head. "That mothefucker this", and "that". Basically it was so out of hand I raised my voice for the first TIME EVER in the ROH lockeroom and told everyone to CALM THE FUCK DOWN.
Afterwards I headed immediately down to ringside where Teddy and Jack Evans where to see what was up. In fact I walked up to Teddy along with Cornette and we had a VERY civil talk and I asked Teddy about his side of the story. Teddy kept saying that he had a concussion and did not remember doing any of the back flips. In fact he swore up and DOWN to me and Cornette he was concussed and he did not remember a thing. I told Teddy to chill out sit down and relax as he seemed quite worked up after the match. I also calmly and nicely told Teddy to stay down at ringside and to just avoid the lockeroom until everything cooled down. I even sent some ROH staff up to the Locker room to grab his bags just to AVOID any altercations. Its funny how NONE of this was recounted by Teddy, of course why would it? I mean how can I be the evil ROH tyrant when I go walking around displaying emotions of compassion and empathy? Damn me and my poor ability to be type cast.
Honestly people fights are silly, and if they can be AVOIDED I am all for them being avoided. Now everything seemed to be cool, Teddy and I even shook hands and everything seemed fine and workable. What happened next was a whirlwind.
I am near the curtain do my usual pre match prep and I hear a words exchanged between Jack and Whoever in Corino's group who is now walking out the curtain.
MY FIRST WORDS TO JACK, in a calm pleading tone where
"Hey come on just keep on walking enough of this"
Obviously Jack was angry and he totally disregarded my plea, and Jack responded with something to the effect of "Fuck that Slut"
and I said in a more aggressive tone
"LISTEN she has been here longer then you and I do not appreciate the lack of respect KEEP WALKING"
Jack ignored my second statement again and seemed to want to persist though they where about to go through the curtain and at that point I had enough.
I WENT TO SLAP THE SHIT OUT OF HIM.
There you have it guilty as charged. I believe in diplomacy, but if your going to disregard my diplomacy then FUCK YOU I guess we going to move onto a more direct means of communication.
At this point Jack was now was paying attention to me.
Chris Daniels though saw this all unfolding and restrained me along with Allison and Monsta Mack since I was about to tear into him. So now here I am with my arms pinned to my side, Pissed off and being held back by a mob of people and out of no where Teddy comes charging back and takes a shot at me while my arms and entire body are being restrained by 4 people. It was no "shove" he saw a opportunity and he got on his cowboy hat and took himself a shot. Fortunately he throws shots like bitch and has even worse aim. As for the arguement that he was "protecting his friend" hell I had 4 people on me and he was more then free to walk away. He wasnt backed into any corner, and he sure as hell was never touched. So you can peddel that bullshit somewhere else.
Now how I grew up the minute you take a shot at a guy, its on. We are now fighting. No fucking "I'm Sorry" no more "Lets talk this out", you and I are now having a fucking fight so shut the fuck up and lets go.
I exploded I will not deny that, and the whole time Teddy was trying to offer his hand and make friends, but fuck that, WOULD HE BE DOING THAT IF HE CAUGHT ME WITH A PUNCH AND I GOT MY BELL RUNG? FUCK NO he would be on the Internet like a fucking stooge bragging to everyone how he fucked up Samoa Joe. Fortunately for him Jim Cornette simply had to say "Joe focus on the match" and I stopped because, Cornette was right I still had a job to do, and I still had 3 other people depending on me. I publicly Apologize to Jim Cornette, Chris Daniels, CM Punk, and Steve Corino and entourage for jeopardizing that.
After the match Teddy was waiting outside the lockeroom trying to make nice with me. I said no, in fact I told Teddy to STAY AWAY from me, but he persisted and DID NOT HEED my warning. I proceeded to launch into what I was told a 15 minute verbal tirade (Since I had all of NYC holding me back from killing him) on Teddy which even by my standards is pretty fucking brutal.
As for all this other conjecture about me being a Lockeroom leader and the "King". Bullshit
I care a tremendous deal about everyone in that ROH Lockeroom. INCLUDING YOU TEDDY when you where apart of it! I raised my voice at a veteran (DeVito) to save your ass, and then walked down to ringside to hear YOU out and try and avoid any conflict. Instead you bit the fucking hand that fed you and now your trying to make yourself out as some type of victim. In fact those where my exact word to you when I was trying to fuck you up if you could remember. If people want to consider me a locker room whatever I hope its because I try and go out of my way to make everyone welcome and promote a harmonious atmosphere among the talent. So whatever preconceived notions you might have of me parading around the locker room with scepter in hand, you can take and go fuck yourself with.
Now as for Jack Evans, I was asked by Gabe and Rob if I would have any problem if they brought him back. I said no, because in retrospect I can understand how Jack was feeling. He went out there and worked hard and in all honesty had nothing to do with Teddy's idiocy and was merely reacting. Unfortunately I just think he did not realize all that was going on. In fact, hell I APOLOGIZE to Jack Evans. Weather he chooses to accept it or not is up to him, but at least I am man enough to admit if I have jumped the gun a little, as long as he can admit that he should have heeded my initial warnings. In Jacks case ( as any other people I have a disagreement with ) I try to look at the situation through their eyes and after doing so maybe no truer words can be spoken as this was a simple misunderstanding and over-estimation of my tolerance.
As for Teddy, Who knows, time heals all wounds, but as long as he wants to milk this for press, I will have a problem with him. In fact he has been careful to avoid out and out direct insults towards me which is appreciated. Regardless until you display a ounce of virtue, or GENUINE remorse, (not remorse to save you ass) you would be wise to stay the fuck out of my eyesight and my name off your lips. Overall I must once again state, Time heals all wounds, and eventually I hope I will have the ability to bury the hatchet in the meantime I'll be splitting timber.
