Now to Part 8

It was something I wanted for a long time. A storyline in wrestling with me involved. I always thought that I would be in it a small time, but never be the main focus. But now I am the main focus.

And in one of the best storylines in FCW if we make it that way. But the fact still remains that I am doing this storyline, not with a friend, but an enemy.

See when you watch the WWE and see a Randy Orton/Triple H feud, they are enemies. Orton is a heel and Triple H is a face. So it makes sense that they would hate each other on TV.

But off of TV, they are not enemies at all. In fact they have been at events together, signings, and things like that in the past. They could be good friends for all I know. They keep the hatred for one another in the ring, not out of it.

Joe Hennig and myself were in a heated rivalry backstage. He wants me gone, I want to succeed. The writers seem to like me and want to push me more so than they want to push him.

For that Hennig is very upset and will do anything to see me gone. So he tried to take me out of action, he tried to get people in the back to go against me, he has tried it all it seems.

So the writers had to hone in on it and do a storyline out of it. Hennig just recently went heel and I was a face, so it would work.

But the fact remains that I did not want to work with him. I could care less about seeing him wrestle in FCW. He is a good wrestler so why not keep him around.

The fact is that he has an ego that is as big as the FCW arena itself. He refuses to sell anything I do in matches, and has done it with others in the past. Also refuses to choreograph matched with me. He now wants to do all matches we do improved.

I am not skilled enough to do that yet, also many wrestlers do not improv matches even on RAW, ECW, and SmackDown. They are only improved if something goes wrong usually or if someone is injured and unable to do a certain move.

I was not going to put up with this. I had to go over people's heads in FCW. I did not want to fight Hennig, I wanted to wrestle. There is a difference.

He wants to take me out of action, that is not good for business and the man I was going to call knew business.

I was going to call a McMahon we all know and love. They could take care of this for me.

And since Orton put in a good word for me, they at least knew who I was. So that would work in my favor. They knew how valuable I had become.

So I had an idea. I had the recording of the Escobar/Hennig match from the previous week. And also I planned on recording the conversation I had with Hennig to show what kind of attitude he really had.

I didn't want to seem like some sort of taddle tale. But the fact was that Hennig had become a danger to me and all who stepped in the ring with him.

I had to do something, which is why I had to get a McMahon down here to do something.

I went to get the recording from Hennig, I knew if I got it that I could get him suspended or something.

At least I would be able to reach my potential once this happened. I heard I was in talks for a call-up. And I didn't want to ruin that.

Once I arrived I went to talk to Hennig, I tried to get him to talk to me. But he just ignored me. I was really angered by this because it ruined my plan.

However the only reason he was not talking to me was because he was leaving. He was said to be in an interview in about 30 minutes from now. So something had to be up if he would leave right before an interview.

I asked a writer why Hennig was leaving, he said Hennig had been suspended for the stunt he pulled last week.

Also my mentor Eric Escobar had been suspended too. They both did an   unchoreographed match as you may remember last week, of which Escobar got kicked almost to the point where he could not have children.

But since both were in the match, they both had to get suspended. Two on the top superstars in FCW were now gone for 1 month. Of course Escobar's suspension was really bad.

He was the current FCW World Heavyweight Champion. Which meant he could not keep the title. What would they do with the World Title?

I quickly found out.

There would be a Tournament for the FCW World Title. And since Hennig was suspended the storyline between us would come to an end.

And that would free me up to be in the tournament.

I would excited to know I'd be in it. Also the fact that I did not have to put up with Hennig was a plus.

My fate was comming to the forefront, I was going to be a key person in this tournament even if I did not win it.

It seemed as if everything was going my way.

I was on my way out after a few hours of working out. And on my way out I was approached by one of the FCW trainers.

He said that he found out I was going to be in the World Title Tournament upcoming. He said that he was happy for me and my success, but was worried.

I asked him why he was worried, because I had to know.

He said that I was not really as big as the others in the tournament. And he didn't think that I would look like a future World Champion or even look liked Championship material what so ever.

He said he was not trying to make me feel bad in any way. He wanted to help me get bigger.

He said the best way was with steroids. He said he had a box coming in that he was giving a few others and thought I needed some.

I of course wanted to get bigger, but was not sure if I wanted to do it.

He said he had used them in the past, and they were not harmful from what he had seen.

So I said I would use some. I had trusted the judgement of the trainers before such as Bob Johnson. And also no one here had steered me wrong, other than Hennig.

I wanted to be a huge WWE Superstar and the next FCW World Champion. So with that said, I knew was going down the path of no return.
