circles the user with a sneer, cracking her knuckles. "You ready to eat canvas again, chump? This is my ring now!"
Like I said last time we met…. ” I’m Angelasm. Your father”
"Oh no, no, no! You got it all wrong! I am Angelasm. And you are Beulah McGillicutty, my daughter."
Yeah sure…..I never thought I would see my long lost dad. I know I have plenty of dads out there claiming to be my real dad because of some stupid contest but this…this is something else.
"Listen here, chump. I'm your real dad alright? The one and only Beulah McGillicutty, former Extreme Championship Wrestling superstar.
Excuse me? I think you’re confusing me with someone else. I haven’t been wrestling lately because I’ve been training to fight actual demons.
"That's right, kiddo! We're talking about the legendary Beulah McGillicutty, the queen of Extreme Championship Wrestling. I held my own against some of the toughest wrestlers out there - think you can handle that kind of pressure?"
Of course! I wouldn’t have survived this long if I didn’t have strength! But like I told ya….the only rings I’ve been stepping into are the ones where I battle demons.
"Well then, let's put that strength to the test. How about a little wrestling match, just you and me?"
Wow…so you want to bring me back into the wrestling ring again? Yeah sure…..but unfortunately for you,I don’t have any intentions of making this an easy fight for you. You may be strong but I’m stronger.
"We'll see about that. Prepare to eat canvas, kid." Beulah takes a step forward and throws a punch towards Angelasm
He sidesteps and grabs her arm before twisting it behind her back Are you trying to fool the audience into thinking that this is going to be an easy fight for me?! Trying to keep them focused on my technique instead of the real strategy behind my strength?!
"No need to underestimate me, chump. Just 'cause you've got some fancy moves doesn't mean I'm gonna go down without a fight.
No….I’m not underestimating you. That’s what makes me more powerful than you. My foe is not just a person but a demon. A constant source of pain and misery. If I were to fight like I normally did when fighting other people then my opponent would become stronger. So instead, I fight with all my heart to win while staying focused.
"Well, Angelasm, it seems you've got quite the strategy. Alright then, let's put that focus of yours to the test. Show me what you've got."
he grins. "Deal. Prepare yourself." He lunges at Beulah, tackling her to the ground.
pushes Angelasm off and quickly regains her footing "Alright, chump. Let's see if you've got what it takes to go toe-to-toe with the legendary Beulah McGillicutty." She charges at Angelasm, throwing a powerful punch
Grabs her wrist before using his feet to sweep her legs out from underneath her. As she falls onto the ground he pins her shoulders down.
"Ow! Alright, alright, you got me. Looks like you've got some tricks up your sleeve too, chump."
Please call me Angel by the way…I may be your daughter but my friends call me Angel. I think you already know that because you’ve seen me fight demons.
"Sure thing, Angel. I guess we both have our nicknames after all." Beulah releases her wrist from Angelasm's grip and quickly regains her footing
By the way….how’s Tommy doing?
"Tommy Dreamer? He's doing alright, still semi-retired and working on his own projects. How about your mom, Trisa? Is she doing okay?"
She retired from wrestling quite a while ago and she’s been teaching stuff at a college nearby. By the way, do you remember Jim Carey?
"Jim Carey? Of course I remember him! He was one of the funniest guys in the business. How did you know about him?"
Because he helped raise me. My mother has been married four times. The last guy she ended up staying with for quite a while was Jim.
"Wait, so your mom married Jim Carey? That's... unexpected. But hey, at least you had a pretty cool stepdad, right?"
Yeah. Unfortunately, he died of cancer. My grandmother used to take care of me and my sisters after that. I remember she always called us Angelsmas during Christmas…….she would also say that I took after my grandpa so much…….yeah….she was right….”
"I'm really sorry to hear about your stepdad, Angel. Cancer can be such a tough thing to deal with. But hey, it sounds like you had a great grandma too. It's nice that you have those good memories with her."
Yup. Well anyways…I’m glad I saw you. I’ll see you later. she walks away…
"Wait, Angel! Before you go..." Beulah reaches into her jacket pocket and pulls out a small note "I found this note in my old wrestling gear. It has a secret move written on it that I never got to try out in the ring. Would you like to see it?"
"Great! Follow me then." Beulah leads Angelasm to a nearby training area "Now, here's what you need to do..."
