”Hello?”
”Hey, Nathan...this is Kandi…”
”Hey Kandi. How are things?”
”I’m doing good, big buddy...it’s been a minute since we’ve talked...I think the last time was at Aftermath2K15?”
”Has it been that long? Wow, time flies I guess. What’s up? I can’t imagine you’re just calling to catch up.”
”Yeah...you’re right...I guess. So I take it you got the official word on the closure of GZW?”
”Let’s be honest Kandi who didn’t see it coming? When people start dumping large amounts of stock at one time something has to be up. But yes, unfortunately I heard about.”
”It was inevitable but still GZW2K1 no more….I never would have thought in my wildest dreams that this day would come though….no matter how many times GZW has hit hard times it always bounced back….it’s just surreal...
”I know. When Angel and I got the call it was like a shot to the chest. I don’t think Angel has wrapped her head around it yet.”
There is a brief moment of silence followed by what sounds like muffled sniffling down the female Icon’s line of the phone.
”Sorry about that….it’s hit me just as hard I guess…”
”Not like that place hasn’t been our home for the past sixteen years whether we were active or not. It’s a tough pill to swallow no matter how you look at it. I still keep waiting for that call that says they’re not closing down. Guess I’ll have to keep waiting won’t I?”
”This all just sucks…”
Another moment of silence followed by muffled sniffling.
”Listen, Nathan, I need a favor from you.”
”What’s up?”
”I hear you have some sort of connection to Munin’s wrestling company over in Louisiana?”
”Yes and no. It’s something in the works but nothing has been finalized just yet.”
”But there is a connection there, correct? I mean, I’m not trying to get into your business...I just need you to talk to Munin if you happen to have her ear…”
”What would you like me to say Kandi? I have no problem bending her ear one way or the other.”
”The GZW2K1 World Heavyweight Championship belt, Nathan...I want you to ask her about considering giving me the title…”
”Giving you the title? Mind if I ask why?”
”Now that GZW is no more I think that one of its main symbols should be rightfully returned and placed in a proper place to be preserved….”
”And where do you think it should be preserved Kandi? GZW doesn’t have a brick and mortar building to show off its history. Not to mention, last I heard everything GZW was going up for auction and that includes the World Title.”
”Actually the Coliseum has the museum inside of it….and if not there I will ensure that we do get a building up in order to celebrate the legacy we created in this sport...as far as this auction goes it’ll be hard pressed to auction off the title while Munin is still in possession of it...to my knowledge she has had no intentions of returning it to anyone still connected to GZW…”
”I won’t make any promises Kandi but I’ll reach out to her and feel her out, see where she’s at. Knowing GZW is closed down she might be a bit more willing to let go of the past so that she can focus on the future.”
”That’s all I can ask….I would do it myself but as you said she is a young woman still holding onto the past and I can only assume that I represent some of that past...I’m not seeking the title out of any ulterior motive...no wrestling storyline...or to boost any ratings. I just want to be able to know that a small piece of my history...our history...is secured and in a safe place…”
”I’ll talk to her as soon as I can. Like I said, no promises. She may not be willing to budge in which case I’m not gonna force her. All I can do is try and convince her.”
”Thank you, Nathan...listen let me let you go I hear the twins coming through the door...give Angel and Rachel Elizabeth my love…”
”I will. Take care Kandi.”
