#wk 15

[valkyrie-night-103]

Not to be horny on main, but Kota Ibushi has no right being as beautiful as he is. Honestly. I felt like the gayest son of a bitch watching Wrestle Kingdom night one.

I’m so happy for him. I really hope he doesn’t lose to Jay, I know how much this meant to Kota.

Loved the hell out of that post-WK Jay White promo. Where did that come from????? Incredible feat to actually succeed at making himself sympathetic after all he's done.

IBUSHI BEATING JAY LIFELESS WAS BEAUTIFUL. KAMIGOYE TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD. EXPOSED KNEE KAMIGOYE. IBUSHI RETAINS!!!!! Seeing Ibushi with both of those titles just gets me every time. I love it so much.

Loved watching Ibushi win, but the fact that I've just had to watch Jay White wrestle for 48 minutes straight is obscene and offensive.

NAITO GERMAN SUPLEXES IBUSHI ONTO HIS HEAD ON THE FLOOR!! And rolls back in the ring, sits facing away from Ibushi, and counts along with his hand to Red Shoes' 20 count loolol.

NAITO CATCHES IBUSHI OUT OF A MOONSAULT ATTEMPT INTO THE KOJI CLUTCH!!!

IBUSHI RANA OFF THE RING TO THE FLOOR ON NAITO!!!!!!!!!!

NAITO TOP ROPE POISON RANA ON IBUSHI!!!!!!!

NAITO KICKS OUT OF KAMIGOYE TWICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IBUSHI COUNTERS DESTINO INTO A KNEE STRIKE!!!! BARE KNEE KAMIGOYE!!!!!!

WHAT A MATCH!!!!!!

IBUSHI TRIES TO COVER NAITO AGAIN, NOT REALIZING OR NOT BELIEVING THAT HE HAS JUST WON THIS MATCH. FOR THE DOUBLE GOLD. IN THE TOKYO DOME MAIN EVENT.

Oh man, I am so emotional. And so conflicted. I have always, always wanted a big Ibushi push... just not at Naito's expense. With every fiber of my being, I wanted to see Naito go 2-0 this WK and walk out with both titles. I've never really gotten the Naito title reign that I've wanted so badly, with Okada winning the IWGP heavyweight title back after a few months the first time Naito won it, the pandemic hitting after Naito's second heavyweight title win at WK 14, the shenanigans with Evil and Bullet Club last year. Ugh. My first reaction was just to feel absolutely distraught at Naito's loss (even though I saw it coming). But watching Naito hand Ibushi those titles, watching Ibushi stand in the corner of the ring with those belts over each shoulder... it got me. What a night.

+ Photograph of London and Kaden: The reason for keeping this should be obvious, but the two children are the most important to me. I ain't a huge fan of humans; everyone knows that. London and Kaden are the two reasons I've remained grounded. I also have to credit Zola as well but without these two kids, I'd probably still be doing cocaine off my girlfriend's ass.

+ Crystallized Animal Skull: I kept this lovely piece of nature's brilliant work because I found it back in Florida. I've always collected animal bones. There's beauty in everything, even death, and it's a nice reminder of our humanity.

+ Childhood sketchbook: I've kept two sketchbooks my entire life. This is one of the two. Picasso always tried to resort back to his childhood drawings. Nothing is more innocent and more original than a child's drawing. Imperfection is perfection in their eyes. We strive for perfection, as human beings, and I have to remind myself that imperfection is okay, no matter the situation. They're also excellent memories to keep around.

- Suicide Note: I wrote this suicide note when I was thirteen years old. I've kept it to remind myself that there's always negative times. There's up and downs throughout life but things do get better. If I would have gone through with my plans, I'd be lying on the sidewalk, dead, gun next to my limp body.. Instead, I pushed through my issues and look at me now - I may not have amounted to a whole lot, but I'm semi-successful, engaged, and have a wonderful family and equally as incredible friends.

- Sketchbook full of Exes: This is the only other sketchbook I've ever kept. Inside these pages are not only memories but a physical list of every woman I (remember) being with romantically. Their faces, bodies, and our memories taint the pages. All of my secrets, all of my long nights fill the pages. I've mostly kept it around because it holds a few select sketches and even a few photographs of London's mother. They'll be nice for her to see when she's older, minus the nudes.

- Past Criminal Record: Thanks to Jalen, I've managed to keep hard-copies of all of my past criminal activities. Everything I've ever been charged with, under or over the age of eighteen, is in this stack of papers. While all of these are cleared, once again because of Jalen, I keep them to remind myself to stay on task and not to get sloppy with my side jobs. I can't risk a criminal record now that I have a daughter and want to have a proper life with Zola.
