Jesse Styles called me out of the blue for a business meeting. I was enjoying my life as a nobody. A shadow of my former self. The business had passed me by, and I honestly felt okay with that. I had my second divorce in the books. I had also. Two days after my forty fouth birthday, and I had no idea what this business meeting was about. I had felt completely broken with no where to turn. But on the bright side myself, and my fiancé Katie had celebrated two years,wifh the third year coming up. I was getting back to a good place, and then somethinv happened that I never envisioned. The possiblity of returning. But not as James Wolf. What nobody else knew was that I was completely burned out. I experienced the death of another friend, and if Im going to be honest with myself thatalso factored into my decision to return. Although, I was open to the business meeting. Upon my request Jesse, and I were to meet at a local hooters. The reason for this was in part a distraction for me. I use to have nerves of steel, and for the first time in a while I was nervous.
2:00 PM
A black leather jacket, followed by a Memphis shirt underneath, blue lucky brand jeans, blue sketcher slip in shoes, and I was waiting at the table for Jesse Styles. I see Jesse walk in also in a relatively casual out fit. Still the king of promotion he looked like more of a walking billboard than I did.
Jesse Styles: New Edge Wrestling is openining its doors again. I'm here to gauge your interest in returning. We're also holding a memorial show for L.A. Kief. So, what are your honest thoughts Dave?"
David Francis: To be quite honest I'm not ready. Although, I can be ready for the memorial show. I've been seeing interest for a Morbid Wolf return."
Jesse Styles:Should I draw up the contract for James Wolf?
David Francis: No, the only way I'm doing this is if I return as myself. It's time to not only be honest with myself, but with everybody else. I might as well enjoy them being in the dark now because the more I reveal the more scutiny I will be under. But I've got thick skin and can handle it. I'll have a new entrance, tron, and also new move set. Don't worry I've got something big planned for my return. We'll see how that pans out. I'll be ready for something different if those don't work out."
Jesse Styles: Okay then I'll send in the promos for what you have linedd up. Hopefully the new year will bring what you looking for. I've really appreciated this business meeting, and I hate to cut it short, but my job never ends.
David Francis: I'll tell our waitress Jessica, that I'm taking care of your check.
Jesse Styles:Thanks Dave. I really appreciate it. I'm heading out now. See you in three months. And enjoy the rest of your lunch.
Three Months later
Backstage I'm at the L.A. Kief memorial show, and I'm watching my promos build up to this moment, and my anxiety is replaced by adrenaline. I've missed this feeling and I know deep inside I made the right choice. I watch the lights go down as well as the black, bloody snarling wolf appear, and I head out to the top of the ramp.
After getting backstage after the L.A. Kief show, and regardless of how it went I felt fantastic. No creative blocks. My original plans falling theough was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I received a voice mail from Jesse Styles about my next match. It would be the opening match in the X-Core division against Omar Azure and for the first time I think both of us will be happy with the end result. It will show a lot of growth from me. Not only will I be able to respect myself, but also I'll be able to respect my opponent. For what they're able to accomplish. I've displayed quite a lot of selfish behavior over the years. With a new landscape on the horizon to conquer I knew I'd have to forge a different career path, and I was just getting started.
Finding myself in the NEW studio all ready completing what's expecting of me, I was watching the fall out of Johnny Stylez losing the NEW World Championship. As much as I wanted to comment I knew better. It would not fit my new direction, and let's be honest for a second. Johnny would have to deal with Hunter, and as we all know; nobody loves to hear himself speak more than Hunter Valentyne. Also, I personally knew that Johnny always has to get the last word. I smiled remembing a time in the distant past when I ripped everybody apart. Seeing how far Johnny had come made me smirk. Not a cocky grin. Just a great sense of achievement since I played an integral part in his journey.
Pulling out my cell phone I send a quick text to my brother Daniel. For what?Well, its none of your goddamn business. You'll just have to find out for yourself.

New York City: The Velvet Rabbit 11:30 PM
I brought my brother to The Velvet Rabbit. After seeing my schedule in NEW, I decided it was best for him to excel, and move up the ladder. I've been told that he, and I look a like. I dont, and will never see it. Beside both of us being tall, he has long blonde wavy hair, and he's stockier. He work out a lot more. Also works all the time. He's perfect to take out the trash for Voo. Itdidn't take long for him to get the job while I get back in ring shape for NEW. With my family taken care of, I could now focus completely on NEW.
As I climbed the NEW ladder especially in the X-Core division. I noticed the current Champion nentioned the World Title. Although, I always hated the word "title" because if all you earned was the title that would be fine. But if you have to carry a championship its a little different. You're having represent a style of wrestling that is dying out. Only that I won't let it die out. The NEW World Championship should be something everybody aspires to. However, you should never outright make your plans to go after it known. Why is that reason? New contenders, and former World Champions will show up to hold you back, and keep you from your dreams. This was a lesson Andrew would have to learn the hard way. Another hard lesson was the upcoming challenger in myself.
"Andrew, you've made a very costly mistake while you're currently atop of the X-Core division. I've wrestled every where. I've had my good, bad, and no shows behind me. Life happens, and some time its beyond your control. Returning to the topic at hand. Andrew, you cannot devote your complete focus to one championship, while also secretly pining for the other. Its my place to pount it out only because you made your intentions known. While you're now asking yourself why I should be concerned, the easy answer is because I could possibly be your next challenger, and when that happens well, just be paying close attention to that opening X-Core rules opening match. I'll send you on your way to hitch hiking to the NEW World Championship division. Because it sounds like your heart is no longer in it. The better news for me is I won't have to rip your heart out. Seems like you've all ready done it for me. While you talk about what you're longing to accomplish I'm taking it one match at a time. My final words are as follows be careful what you wish for.
