Charlotte, North Carolina. Monday 29th January. (Offline)

Going back to where I was told to go and calm down by my stupid-ass therapist Ross Barnes who Supreme Championship Wrestling staff, for some reason, hired to keep me under control. Instead of going upstairs and relaxing, I had a balcony in my holiday home, primarily for business-related things for Kaulig Racing. I left the house and went outside to relax, shaking my head at what had happened. I was sarcastic for sure, but I couldn't hide how pissed I was about this secret therapist Supreme Championship Wrestling done behind my back while I was still in the hospital, recovering from burns, of all things.

It took me two hours to calm down. Because I had been so quiet, Ross Barnes got concerned and stood behind me. I knew some things weren't discussed yet, including the one I needed to talk about, which has been bothering me since I became a professional wrestler. It always affects me whenever I wrestle in the ring for this particular thing.

Ross Barnes: "You're expecting me to leave, right? Well, we're not done discussing what I've discovered since I was hired to be your therapist, and I'm not leaving until we've discussed this. Please come inside."

Konrad Raab: "Going back to what I said, do you want a prize or something to figure me out?"

Ross Barnes: "Stop with the sarcasm. I know you're mad with me and Supreme Championship Wrestling."

Konrad Raab: "Wouldn't you be when they did this shit behind my back while I was in hospital recovering from burns. I had to fucking get my lungs pumped out of me because they were burned."

Ross Barnes: "Come on now, let's get back inside."

I knew that was the case, that he had more to discuss, and he wasn't going anywhere, knowing he would stay the night and days until we spoke more than just my anger and violent issues. I sighed before coming back in and closing the double balcony doors.

I shook my head, growling at myself, wanting to beat the shit out of Ross and wanted to should abusive words at him. But reminding myself I'll be fired if I do. I sat back on the sofa with my Rockstar Energy sugar-free drink, which I took a sip of.

Ross Barnes: "Getting back to where we left off with the anger stuff. This is very worrying if you're enjoying being angry. It's no wonder you don't have wrestling friends, apart from Kimberly, who you weren't too kind to when she wanted to be your friend."

Konrad Raab: "That is completely on me. One of my biggest mistakes was not letting Kimberly be my friend. We've sorted it now, but at the time, I was scared of being friends with a wrestler due to fear of being stabbed in the back."

Ross Barnes: "You need to find constructive things to do sometimes. Granted, in wrestling, it happens for you to be violent, but you went overboard with it when facing Kandis."

Konrad Raab: "Don't you understand how hurt I was when I was stabbed in the back? It hurt me more than you ever know because everyone has rejected me. My mother and high school friend Elton were the only people who accepted me, but everyone else never wanted me to exist. So I took rejection personally, knowing I could never move on until I've dealt with Kandis."

It was hard to talk about my past regarding my dad and everyone at school, and even Elton got bullied a lot. I was rejected everywhere I went and bottled everything up regarding that until Minerva flipped a switch in me, which she was entirely right about. I can see Ross being almost intimidated by me as he typed notes about me on his laptop.

Ross Barnes: "You've not found a way to combat your anger regarding your past. I read about your dad being psychically and mentally abusive to you, even burning you, but it doesn't mean you a..........."

Konrad Raab: “Not you as well. Seriously, fuck you, Ross, for accusing me of being like my dad. That's what you're going to say, right? Last I checked, I don't beat my children; I don't force them to burn them like he did with me. Fuck you."

I rarely ever brought my kids up to anyone in a discussion like this, but at the same time, I aimed to be a better dad to my kids than my piece of shit dad ever was to me. I always get angry when people say I'm like my dad, and it was for that exact reason. I just had the same mental issues as him, and my twin brother does, too.

Ross Barnes: "Watch the language. You have to stop the swearing. The other thing that has raised concerns from the staff is your threatening death of wrestlers. What are you thinking to do such a thing?"

Konrad Raab: "It's a fucking wrestling thing, alright? I can't control my anger, and sometimes I say things I don't mean, except when I say I want to burn Kandis, I meant it. I threatened death threats because of my anger. I didn't even realise I had to be honest."

Ross Barnes: "I say your problem is when you're angry, you don't think what you say. You're completely out of control, your swearing is worse than what they've told me, and you can't go as far as threatening death on wrestlers; that's a line you don't cross."

Ross shook his head at me, and I knew it was an issue of my anger being completely out of control. I don't even remember me threatening death on wrestlers. I really flip the switch when I'm angry. It seems Ross hasn't seen anger like mine out there. The fact is, I know there's something else on his mind he needed to get off his chest.

Ross Barnes: "Also, your lack of interest in titles. I don't know what you were thinking, knowing you flat-out said you don't care about winning championships in wrestling. Why is that?"

Konrad Raab: "Because they are a waste of my fucking time. Sure, my team wants to win the tag titles, and it's the only time I would accept being champion, but I just didn't care for the other belts because my focus was on Kandis."

Ross Barnes: "You can't be in the professional wrestling business and not want to win a title. Don't you realise how many wrestlers you've insulted that night by being in a world title match?"

Konrad Raab: "I don't give a fuck about other wrestlers being offended because I was in a World Title match I didn't want to be in. I was thrown into it because Kandis was the champion. I wanted to destroy and beat her. I didn't need to win the world title to do that."

Although I wasn't telling the truth about why I didn't want to win the world title, part of me felt that my focus was on Kandis. I swallowed hard to tell him the truth. Before I could, I drank more energy drinks, and Ross wanted to add to the discussion.

Ross Barnes: "Do you realise how ridiculous you were with that? You're the leader of The European Fiery Nation team, and how you acted during the world title match was not how a team leader should approach them. As the tag team leader, you should've wanted to win the world title."

Konrad Raab: "But Kandis was more my focus than winning a world title. I just didn't care to win it."

Ross Barnes: "You're not a good team leader because you should want that. I think you want to win the world title because it would've been a good thing for European Wrestling, you know, the market you and your team are trying to grow in to get wrestlers in the business."

He was right; I needed to be a better leader to the team and even to the wrestling school that my twin brother and I own. That's the reality check I got big fucking time. I slapped myself in the face for ignoring this. At the same time, I was still new to leading a team, and part of me still didn't know what to do because I had never done it before, but Ross wasn't done.

Ross Barnes: "Saying that, there's obviously something as to why you said what you said about the world title of not wanting to win it, isn't there?"

He nailed it right in the coffin. I couldn't lie to him now; he saw right through me. I nodded for the first time to someone outside of my family. I drank more and more of the energy drink, gulping down what I had been hiding from the world. It's been plaguing me since I started wrestling.

Ross Barnes: "Why don't you want to win the world title?"

Konrad Raab: "Because the truth is, Ross, it's always been something I've been feeling about them since I got into the wrestling business, and only my family members know this."

Ross Barnes: "I want you to tell me why right now, Konrad, so I can possibly help you with this."

Konrad Raab: "Because World title matches scare the living shit out of me. The pressure to win the world title gets too much to the point where I have an anxiety attack because I always feel I'll fail, and I always feel I'll never get a shot at it ever again if I lose. I don't deal with that very well. I almost ran away during both world title matches because of it. I just can't handle pressure from world title matches."

I already felt the sensation of the anxiety attack coming with how sweaty I was, and this was just talking about it as I drank a lot. I got another out of the fridge as I quickly returned and sat down with Ross, disgusted to tell him this issue affecting my entire wrestling career.

Konrad Raab: "It's so bad that I'd rather never get a shot of it again than deal with that pressure of wanting to win the world title again. I say I don't because I've never been confident in even saying I want to win the world title, let alone confronting the world champion to his or her face about challenging them for the belt. It makes me psychically sick."

Ross Barnes: "I won't tell anyone in SCW staff what you said. The issue is you've never had the confidence or self-esteem to do so because you listen to your head instead of yourself. I understand it is a lot of pressure for every wrestler to go out and win the world title because not many people can, but we will work on that."

I know he was right, but it was an issue before I had the team thing going. I guess what he was trying to say was that The European Fiery Nation team should've motivated me a lot more to win the world title, but my anxiety attacks always stop me from doing so. Ross needed a drink, so he paused and drank a lot.

Ross Barnes: "But going for that world title would be the biggest thing for your wrestling career and be an inspiration to every European wrestler you're developing in your wrestling school in Germany, something you should've thought about. I know you want to win the world title deep down inside you somewhere."

I couldn't argue or debate on it; that's exactly what I should've thought about when going for that title or any other title. I was a shitty leader, and I know it. He barely knew me and saw through me with that. He had a bit more to say.

Ross Barnes: "I want you to focus not only on wanting to win the belts you've not won yet but the belts you have won in the past as well. I know you aren't a fan of having the most title reigns with one belt, but imagine if you'd become a TV Champion four times? Four-time TV champion is something nobody in SCW has done. You'll make a legacy with that title if you do that."

Konrad Raab: "I get it, but I don't want to be only known for being a four-time TV champion; it doesn't interest me because someone will break it."

Ross Barnes: "Even if someone does, you'll always be the first if you do it. Now, I will leave you, and we will talk more about the front of the title next week. We covered everything, and we will get to work on mentally preparing you for title matches again. Remember, you're doing it for yourself and inspiring European wrestlers who want to be professional wrestlers."

Ross had to go as he didn't flat out state it, but I knew he had to get home to his family or other clients he had to attend to the next day, but I felt better, knowing that someone out there outside of Ginny and my twin brother knows my situation now. He finished his energy drink, put his shoes on, and left the house, leaving me with a lot to think about, especially the reality check I had gotten big time. I just relaxed and watched TV most of the day.

Aisling is in for one hell of a surprise blog (Online)

“You know Aisling, you and your team were stupid. Stating to Dakon and Ludvig that I'm going to come back and not care for wrestling titles? How surprised were you when I've said to the entire world I'm interested in winning titles again? Why? Because I got a reality check and honestly, when I got the reality check, I was indeed wrong with everything I've said about them.

Newsflash, people can change, just like you and Colleen changed, but you only changed because of peer pressure, something Dakon and Ludvig aren't falling into just because it's gotten you and everyone else success and they are right, there's no dedication for being tag team exclusive wrestlers and it's so stupid many of you don't understand that. Dakon didn't even want to do that solos match because winning a solos title was never his goal. He only was in the match with Enigma because he was forced to due to Enigma attacking managers who can't fight back like a coward he is.

Sure, you've had great success on beating Marie Jones and everything else, but is the reason you became a solos wrestler is because Colleen became a TV champion as well or were you peer pressured like Colleen was to do so? What stupid Marie forgot was I'm also a three time TV Champion as well. But that's typical of wrestlers and my entire life of wrestlers rejecting my entire existence which is one of the reasons why I got anger issues to begin with. The fact now my title records numbers don't exist only makes me want to win this match even more. By the way, nobody gives a flying fuck about changes you do.

More so that I do something that nobody in SCW has done, as much as I hate breaking records because they always get broken eventually, but you have no business being a solos champion whatsoever and nor did your partner either. I will make sure I beat the living shit out of you because there's literally nothing you say or do that will convince me of you deserving to be a TV champion or deserving to be a solos wrestler because it's a joke Marie Jones lost to you for that title.

Because you're not on the level of me, the guy who's done solos matches nearly his entire career and I will bring all the violence in the world to destroy a girl who should've stuck with being in tag division than worrying about individual success. Unlike stupid Marie Jones who her redemption goal is completely false and stupid, I have no respect for you because you've done nothing for me to respect for.

Yes, as the member of The European Fiery Nation, we will bring violence each time we wrestle if it's against me or against them. I'm going to crush you like a playdoll you used to be known as comfortably. Because you don't want to be a TV champion at all, I do on the other hand, despite me holding the title three times before. Even your video speaks as if you don't want to be champion. There's nothing about you that I can look at and feel your a threat because your not. but a championship like the TV title belongs to real wrestlers that want to be champion both in tag and solos divisions and that's me.

When I win, it will be the first time in SCW history that someone becomes the TV Champion four times. That's more of a history breaker than anyone has done since the TV Title came back and that's the thing motivating me, on top of being champion because of leading The European Fiery Nation team the right way this time. When I become TV champion again a forth time, not only I become champion for me, but for the European Wrestlers out there that aren't from UK or Ireland to be inspired what a leader of the team can do. That's what they expect and they will get.

What's your reasons for wanting to retain the TV title? Lucked yourself into victory last week. You won't be getting a lucky win against me because you'll be too blooded and broken to even pick yourself up and beat me because of your fear of being overconfident which is a stupid fucking thing to say, you should be overconfident in everything you do. That's why I will become a TV Champion, and you'll lose it because your comments like that make you not champion-worthy. Convincing everyone how you've changed is stupid; in fact, your changes only made yourself and Colleen boring like everyone else and you didn't need to make those changes when you were winning matches in the first place. Changes don't always work for everyone, and there are literally no changes I need to make, not when I became a bigger name in wrestling than the fake good guy I was. If you think people need to change, you're one dumb, stupid fuck.

You are well and truly fucked and I won't feel sorry for you on the damage I'll do to you because I need to do that damage and if I don't win, it's only because you'll have assist from Enigma who will attack me and you'll gain that win, other than that, that's the only chance you have on beating me is with his interference. But I'm winning because I'm overconfident to win because I have to be in order to be the top wrestler of SCW and I'm at my peek every single day. I hate the term best because nobody is the best wrestler. I'll fuck you up and pin you for the three count to make history and it will be blooded and burned at the same time."
