Aaron Blackbourne & Konrad Raab vs. The Jackass and Big Ass Connection

[Konrad Raab]

Playing games at the German/American social club. Las Vegas, Nevada. Friday 17th January. (Off Camera)

It's a strange situation for Konrad to go out and make friends as although he wasn't anything like Markus, refusing to socialise, it was down to Konrad's hectic schedule of wrestling. Apart from UGWC, every other company from winning his first CWF match, from winning the battle royal to be a Junior Heavyweight title contender in EHWF had every reason to have a smile on Konrad's face. However, the most significant announcement was in SCW two weeks ago of Konrad being apart of the Trios Tournament. It's always been Konrad's favourite wrestling tournament throughout the year.

Konrad always did well in the tournament and has never been pinned the entire time he's been in Trios; some said they could relay on Konrad more than most. Konrad's currently in Las Vegas to go to a social club where for Konrad, it would be more suited for him, a place where he can speak German to other people. After talking to the receptionist, Konrad walked in, and because it was free to new members, he was able to walk through and with a smile on his face, having nothing to lose.

Already, someone flicked their hand, signalling Konrad to come and join in who have other players playing a game called blackjack as he turned up an hour late because he was working out in the gym as he wouldn't have time tomorrow because of taking his kids to AMA Supercross race. One of the members who was the same age as Konrad, grey hair, pretty large man who had a German accent says this.

Old German guy: "Welcome to the German and American Social Club. What's your name?"

There was another German guy who was much younger than Konrad and the guy who welcomed Konrad. In his early thirties, blond hair, wearing a biker jacket, even a wrestling hat shook his head at the old German guy with Konrad feeling right at home already as he dealt with some cards in front of him. The young German guy says this to the old German guy.

Young German guy: "Are you kidding me? This is Konrad Raab, a professional wrestler I might add."

Old German guy: "I don't watch wrestling, you know."

There was a guy who heard the last name is familiar to him as he got up from his chair, also the same age as Konrad with black hair, a slim guy to come straight over to Konrad and says this.

Slightly older German guy: "Are you related to Markus Raab?"

Konrad Raab: "Yes, he's my twin brother. Why are you mentioning him?"

Slightly older German guy: "Because he's been here a few times. Hello, I'm Dieter, Markus's new friend. Nice to meet another professional wrestler here. You don't seem shy to socialise with us at all.

Konrad Raab: "I'm not at all. I'm very open to meeting new people. To be honest, the reason why I don't have friends here is that I'm a busy guy. Being a family man, being a professional wrestler, being a reserves football player, I don't get time to myself."

Young German guy: "Yeah, I've seen Markus around too. I'm Jaeger."

Of course, they had forgotten of being in the middle of the game, and Konrad looked at his cards and saw he had ten and asked for another card to match it with fifteen. He decides to stay with his decision as Dieter speaks to Konrad.

Dieter: "Considering I brought Markus a drink, it's fair I buy you one too. What do you want to drink?"

Konrad Raab: "I have an orange juice, please."

Dieter knew Konrad was very different from Markus on Konrad being far more open to talking with people than Markus was. The old German guy introduces himself with his name, after discussing with the dealer on the cards he had.

Old German guy: "I'm Reginald by the way, apologies on being rude to you."

Konrad Raab: "It's perfectly fine. It seems you guys have a good time here and very welcoming."

Jaeger: "Of course we welcome professional wrestlers here, especially ones who've had a lot of success. Looking forward to the trios tournament coming up?"

Konrad Raab: "Yes, I'm looking forward to teaming with Owen and Clyde, most importantly, Aaron Blackbourne who not only I'm teaming with at the PPV, but teaming with him on Wednesday night, against Kandis and Tommy Valentine as well. Trios Tournament is my favourite wrestling tournament of the entire year."

It certainly was a very different environment when a couple of people recognised Konrad right away, or rather with Dieter the surname. It's obvious having a relaxed appearance, having a talkative nature to randomly chatting to strangers Konrad's fitting in fast, attracting attention from nearly everyone. The game continues with Konrad not winning that round of blackjack as one guy had twenty-one. They restart the game, and the dealer shovelled the cards to give out two pieces of cards to each player.

Jaeger: "You have a wife as well, don't you?"

Konrad Raab: "Yes, I do. She's currently pregnant at the moment, but you'll see her on the track in the last two races in September. Fizz is doing full seasons in twenty twenty-one and twenty twenty-two. She's going to be a motorcycle racer in MotoAmerica series."

Reginald: "Wow, that's cool. As for the other hobby you do, I also love soccer myself. I support Munich.

Konrad Raab: "Seeing me and Markus come from Cologne, we support FC Koln, but I play for LA Galaxy reserves team.  I love the game; it relaxes me. I can't play in the first team, and I don't get paid to play as I'm not allowed to while I'm a professional wrestler."

Jaeger: "Yeah, wrestling comes first. I enjoyed the conversation you had with Aaron last week. Seems like a cool guy."

Konrad Raab: "He is a nice guy. Aaron's concerned about Shilo getting in the way, not knowing what comes next, a guy I've had a lot of history with back in two thousand and six. He's a very talented wrestler, and I don't have anything bad to say to Aaron."

They stopped talking for a while as the dealer looks at Konrad and he looked at the cards which had a ten diamond and an eight hearts card, and he said to the dealer to stay how he is as the others were discussing their cards as well. As they flipped the cards over, Jaegar had the most with twenty. They played a few blackjack games with focus for five games before Jaegar mentions about the history between him and Tommy.

Jaeger: "So what's the deal with you and Tommy?"

Konrad Raab: "Yeah, we've had a history, especially the last match we had in the US title contendership tournament. He got me pretty good with his knee to my head, I can't deny that, and I can't deny he has talent when he decides to bring it as Tommy did against me, but he mostly chases after Kandis, having his hands down her knickers more times than not."

Reginald: "That's gross."

Jaeger: "It is, but that's what Tommy does most of the time. I don't agree with what he does, but I do feel Kandis prevents him from being successful at times."

Konrad Raab: "I feel that as well. I'm more pissed off with Gavin Taylor. The things he mentioned about the death of animals in Australia to take the piss out of them and making a joke out of it was disgusting. I spent a hell a lot of money to animal charities and made a lot of kangaroos poaches to donate to the animals."

Dieter: "Wow, that's so kind you donate money to animal charities. I thought all wrestlers, including your twin brother, are mean fucking assholes, but you're not one of them, far from it."

Konrad nods as he grabs his hand hard each time he thought on Gavin's comments about the animals in Australia hurt and died in the wildfires to poke fun of it. He puts it out of his mind though as Konrad focuses on the last game of blackjack for the night as Konrad won the hand with twenty-one number on his cards. Konrad shakes hands with all the players, including Dieter. Konrad drinks all the orange juice and takes the glass up to the bar. 

Reginald: "It's nice to see you here. We hope you'll come down again when you have the time.

Jaeger: "Yeah, we loved your company here."

Konrad Raab: "I will don't worry. I need to go anyway, got to put some of my sons to bed early tonight as they are going to watch AMA Supercross races tomorrow. It's a tradition I do every year or in this case, twice a year when they come to Anaheim."

Dieter: "That's great. I'll see you soon. I'm meeting with Markus tomorrow. I'll tell him about you being here."

While waving to his friends, it's the life Konrad needed, despite him wanting to spend time with his children and his wife. Life with Fizz and Konrad will completely change when Fizz gets her motorcycle racing career started which was announced in articles online today. Suddenly, Dieter holds up a newspaper to say this as Konrad was to put his foot out of the door.

Dieter: "Is this your wife?"

Konrad looks at the newspaper quickly, reading in a short article that Fizz Raab signing a contract with Suzuki to take part in MotoAmerica in the last two rounds and doing full seasons in 2021 and 2022. He smiles, not having a clue of his wife being in the papers with a huge smile on his face to say this.

Konrad Raab: "Yes, it is. That was fast to get the news spread around when she only had the interview and signed the contracts yesterday. She's always had a passion for the sport. I better buy some papers to take home with me so I can show Fizz this."

Dieter: "Mate, she's beautiful and hope the motorcycle racing career will work out for Fizz. Anyway, I got to head off and attend my daughters too. See you later."

Konrad couldn't stop smiling about his wife being a MotoAmerica rider featured in the papers. Now, he can step out the door and get in the car to head down to the local shop in Anaheim to pick up a few newspapers before he heads home to his wife and his manic kids, running around the house after Konrad locked the car doors and walking through the garage to his living room. Fizz hugs Konrad before she hears flapping newspapers and Konrad says this.

Konrad Raab: "You're in the newspapers. Better check them out."

Fizz nodded and smiles, she hadn't received media attention for many years, not even her MMA debut was this big, and it's something that now, Fizz looks forward to in the future as she kisses Konrad's cheek for getting the papers. She goes to the kitchen and cuts out articles of pictures with Fizz and the Suzuki boss to place them in her yearbook for memories she'll have in motorbike racing career. Konrad, on the other hand, was focused on the upcoming match with Kandis and Tommy Valentine. He spends the day at home with his family before he then spends time with Fizz alone before sleeping three hours later.

The preview of Aaron and Konrad working together before the Trios Tournament stages youtube.com shoot.

“Before I get into talking about my opponents and Aaron himself, I want to say I'm disgusted with Gavin Taylor's jokes about animals being seriously hurt and some have died from the burns from Australian wildfires. I donate a hell a lot of money to animal charities, and I've done better than giving money to Australia, I've also done a lot of knitting kangaroo poaches, nests and blankets for the animals suffering in Australia. Sasha, place me in a match against Gavin Taylor title or not at the next Breakdown show to give him a taste of his own medicine.

Got that out of the way and now to address the match and the trios tournament itself. I'm proud to wrestle on the PPV in a preview of the trios tournament. Trios is my favourite wrestling tournament out of all the tournaments I've been in. I love working as a team, and I also love the idea of receiving contracts to do whatever you want with it within a year. I'm excited to take part in it I've been competing since two thousand and seventeen.

Aaron, I have nothing, but full respect for you, especially I hope what we discussed backstage with Shilo has helped you. I know what it's like facing that guy, I fought him in two thousand and sixteen, poking fun at me while I was away from wrestling and he's a complete fool and a coward, ducking from you. You've beaten the top names in the sport to show your talent in the ring so I wouldn't worry about Shilo and focus on the Trios Tournament coming up.

Especially when we're up against an established team like Kandis and Tommy on Breakdown, Kandis has had mostly tag matches with the ladder match with Tommy to only just lost out on winning the tag titles. It's unfortunate because I tend to be a little kinder towards you now, even if I don't agree you are chasing Tommy around and trying to get into his pants after the things you've mentioned about me. You have a ton of talent on your side, but I wished you could put aside of showing your ass and your half-naked body online and focus on wrestling a lot more. Since you've not had a match yet, I can't speak more other than what I've mentioned above.

As for you, Tommy, you honestly think having pictures and videos of sexual nature is acceptable in the wrestling business? As a professional and a veteran of the sport, you should know that it's unacceptable and disrespecting the sport as a whole. If you want to do that, go and do a porn video online. You should act as professionals in the wrestling business because your wrestlers, not porn strippers. I was disappointed you said something stupid like that.

Yes, you did knock my head to another place, I admit that did hurt when we fought in the tournament, but just remember that although you got the win and well deserved one it was, I never came close to defeat you in the match than I had in the US title contender tournament. Next time, it will be a win against you. Yes, I do believe balance is the key to everything and doing sexual nature to get freaky with Kandis is not one of those balanced things you should do.

I believe in entertaining people, I believe in wrestling, but I don't accept that. Also, you and Kandis may have defeated me and Glory in the tag match we had last time, but don't forget, that was me being in another place, and I've changed a heck of a lot then so I wouldn't think about bringing what I did in the past back. Still, of course, we all know people bring the past, just to have something to say. I've moved on from the horrid mistakes I made last year, why can't the rest of you?

You're a talented guy, and you almost defeated Bree for the US title, but you were just short of getting yourself there, and in my opinion, Kandis does hold you back from being successful by yourself. That was why you didn't perform as well, but I know you produce talent when you want to, I've experienced that, but you don't need Kandis to hold you back from achieving your success, likewise with you on Kandis's success too.

Me and Aaron might be at a disadvantage due to lack of experience of working together, but we get along a lot better and Owen will see as the captain, despite Aaron's and my concerns of not only Shilo getting involved but Clyde as well who could cost us the match or cost you both the match too. We will stand firm as we will take you both down and do anything we can to get that win, fair and square without cheating or illegal moves which I know Kandis and Tommy will do.

I hope you'll prepare for the unchanged creativity of Aaron Blackbourne and The Iced Rainbow of Konrad Raab. Our bond and friendship we have will outweigh the joke relationship team of Kandis and Tommy to capture the win from the pair of you, causing a massive upset to win the match by pinfall or submission. Prepare to be Iceinated by the unchanged creativity and The Iced Rainbow.”
