I sit on the couch that resides in my man cave late on this Thursday evening. Being in San Diego I can still claim it to be Thursday so shut the fuck up. Anywho I got the newest issue of a wrestling magazine in my hands as I begin to flip through the publication. Usually don't find myself picking these things up but with the WCF revival going on and War upcoming I figure why not. Might be an interesting piece on someone I know.
Right as I get to the main article about the promotion that made me famous I hear a couple of feet walk towards him and if it was my wife, well, she would've said something by now. I look up from the magazine to see my youngest daughter Kaylee looking up at me. She has such beautiful eyes as she gives me the sweetest look.
Kaylee: Dada I no sleepy...
I pick her up and place her on my lap as she looks at the pictures in the wrestling magazine. Kaylee's in near amazement as she sees some of the muscles on people before glancing at me.
Kaylee: No big.
Brad: I know sweetie but not everyone in wrestling takes steroids. Did once and I regretted it horribly.
Pretty sure she didn't pay the least bit of attention as her face lights up to see me in the pages. The excitment is her jumping up and down on the couch and pointing repeatedly.
Kaylee: Dat you!
Brad: Yep, that's daddy.
Kaylee: Why there?
I take a moment to think about it before smiling.
Brad: Its for WCF. Been wrestling there since before you were a thought in your mommy and mine's mind. So come here monkey and take a look at and daddy when he was starting out.
Kaylee creeps close to me and sees the long hair I used to sport. I keep it short now and she's only ever seen me that way so it's a huge shock to her.
Kaylee: Dat not you!!!!!
Brad: Yes it is. Daddy had long hair until mommy made him cut because she was tired of being with a man who looked like a dirty scumbag.
Kaylee: Where picture?
What picture? Oh my tattoos. Yeah, okay I see what she means. Didn't have as many back then either. I show her one of the same ones I had from back then as she goes more insane.
Kaylee: You ugly den!
I fake being upset as I grab Kaylee and put her into the air.
Brad: Oh I was ugly? You little monkey butt!
She starts to giggle before I bring her down and blow on her stomach. More giggles and laughter comes from my baby girl before she goes back to sitting on my knee.
Kaylee: Where mama?
Brad: She wasn't going to the ring with me then. We were still broke so we couldn't afford a babysitter so she stayed home to take care of Chris. Then daddy played the big millions lotto and won. Then he played it again and won a second time!
She claps from the excitement our of my voice.
Kaylee: Why do den?
Brad: I don't know to be honest with ya muchkin. Kinda thinking I might stop wrestling soon to finish my college degree. I've done quite a bit in seven years but I've never won the War match.
Kaylee: Why?!
The pure shock and disappointment in her voice is really making me to want this one. She looks back up and me and hugs.
Kaylee: Dada gon' win.
Brad: Aw thanks honey.
I give her a kiss on the cheek before standing up with her in my grasp.
Brad: How about daddy tells you a story and gets you back in bed like a good baby?
Kaylee: Me no baby!
Ah yeah I forgot she hates being called a baby. Stupid me.
Brad: Sorry, my big girl. Either way its way past your bed time.
She nods before resting her head on my shoulder and yawns. I think after a bedtime story she'll be fast into dream land. Maybe I should win this contest for her and the family. Be nice to get the War. Hell I've won about everything else in WCF so why not.

"Seems like everyone is beginning to come out of the woodworks now because they all think they have the endurance and cunning skill to become the winner of the War X. I find it a little surprising that so many of you are putting up quite a bravado that you actually believe for a fraction of a second that you'll manage to pull this off with such ease. I see everyone talking about how this is nearly a cake walk.
I'm lookin' at you Jake Keeton. I know you got the skills for it. Me and you got a bit of a past from another promotion and we've traded a few back and forth but let me assure you this isn't there. This is WCF, my home, my promotion, the place that made me into the wrestler that I am. That might be a horrible thing but regardless of how you feel Jake, this isn't going to be the cake walk you think it is.
There's no one to push over like people could with 'Hawk. Yes I made a reference to other said promotion but deal with it. I get it and he gets it and that's all that matters between us. No matter as I'll still view you as a fantastic wrestler no matter how you place in the War match on Monday night.
Who else I got on this hitlist where I heard my name dropped. Oh yes, D-Day. Didn't I make you in a manner of speaking? I took you in that series of contests we had and people started to see you in a different light. You have the nerve to turn this around and smack me in the face with this bullshit you spew in my direction?
You do realize that while I might not be in WCF all the time I'm still wrestling. I'm still in shape and I'm still more then able to shove my foot up you ass and kick your heart to make it stop. This isn't about this one match. This is my last shot at winning the War. I still got more and more matches left in me but sometimes you feel like you only have one more shot at a certain match that would really make the cherry on a great career in WCF.
I've won the title. I've main evented one. I pinned Torture. I choked out Torture and Seth Lerch is too much of a fucking pussy to acknowledge this because of Torture's ego getting up his ass. It's on pay per view. Go watch it sometimes because you weren't the first man to pin Torture.
The hilarious thing is that I'm only thirty two years old. I didn't realize that made me an old man in wrestling terms. Hell some jerks keep going into their fifties before hanging it up for good. So nice try with the whole playing the age card but I'm still young. I just want to enjoy my life without having to get out of bed with a walker. I think anyone with children can respect that more then anything. You're still a young kid, you got a lot to enjoy about life so you don't need to worry about such things.
You got great things ahead of you D-Day, I got no doubt about it but you might just have to wait a little bit longer because I'll promise you that I will do everything to ensure you don't win War because you're not ready for it. Might've held the title already but I got it before I was ready and I fucked it up. Took me five long years to get that belt back. So it ain't gonna happen to you.
Oh and Jay Williams. You still my boy and all but shit, your wife is still hot.
Now can someone please tell me who Odin Balfore is and why I should give a fuck? Oh he won the World Title and got it taken away. Cry a river dude. You weren't here when Torture was runnin' rampant and did that too me. Nearly ended my career and nearly killed my wife. That's something to get angry about. It took me over a fucking year and a half to get it back and you have to wait, what, a couple of weeks to get it?
You mad bro?
You mad that no one seems to care about you and your little speech about this or that. I was left in pure amazement at the amount of non sense that came out of your mouth the other day. I wasn't around for your World Title win? Yeah I was out main eventing shows and selling around arenas myself. Doesn't matter. I wasn't here when guys like Gravedigger won the belt but I still had a certain respect for them helping to build this company.
Yet when I see you I see this guy who thinks that WCF should revolve around him. That you won a title once, the big prize and suddenly you get this huge delusion that you can save WCF if you hold that title. That's what I'm getting from you. Everyone should get on their knees and praise you for being a champion. A champion in an era when there was no real standout talent. Guys like D-Day, Jay are great but can they carry a promotion?
I don't think so at this point. The fucking minute you get that Hall of Fame you can come tell me you helped keep the promotion alive. Until then you haven't done a bit of shit to help this company to keep going. You're nothing but another blowhard like some stoner who reminded everyone how much he loved weed.
Been in wars with men as big as you Odin and I came out on top of them. So make no mistake that just because I'm part of the old guard, a legend in this promotion that by no means in 2011 I'm a damn pushover. I can still go better then anyone else walking the earth right now and no one seems to realize that. Maybe I should make you realize this along with everyone else in the War match.
People wanna know where Brad Kane has been? He's been getting better with some of the best competition in the world while you've all been here wrestling each other and only each other for the better part of the year. Now tell me who does that leave an advantage to? The guy that travels around the world to better himself instead of being complacent with where he's at. I'm a nomad, I won't lie about it.
I travel to make myself better, learn different styles of professional wrestling to be the best here in WCF. So Odin, D-Day, Jake and whoever else thinks they can knock me off, just do it. Prove it to me that you can do it.
Peace."
