Discussions with Fizz about preparing for the Trios Tournament and the secret tournament. Anaheim, California. Sunday 14th January. (Off Camera)
It's ten at night where Konrad and his pregnant wife Fizz had spent the whole day, playing and in Konrad's case, taking his kids out to the playground to run around for four hours as he never really got the chance to be with his kids as often as he'd liked, but at the same time, he'd much prefer working over staying at home, doing nothing as he could never see himself retiring from this sport as of yet as there's no reason for him to do so.
He sits on his bed, thinking about the Trios tournament, but there's something else Konrad's hiding from Fizz and she spotted it when he was staring into space when he looked up at the ceiling, clearly having something on his mind as she places her hand on his face, waving up and down until Konrad blinks.
Fizz Raab: What's wrong?
Konrad Raab: Oh nothing.
Fizz Raab: Don't lie, Konrad, I can see it in your face your hiding something from me.
Konrad Raab: The only thing I care about right now is you carrying my baby, feeling more and more in love with the fact although it was never meant to happen, I never regret I turned into another man to do what I did to you.
Fizz Raab: I know you're in love with me, but something tells me you weren't thinking about that, were you?
Konrad Raab: I was, seeing the future with our baby to grow, wondering if we can handle the psychological problems our son or daughter could have as that's gonna be tough for us.
Fizz Raab: At the same time, we can handle it. After all, your dad had psychological problems as in some ways and I don't mean to upset you, you do as well, but you don't show that side all the time because you try to hide it, especially in front of our kids.
It was true, Konrad did have psychological problems, it was one of the reasons why he smoked weed because of his stress and depression he gets with the wrestling business, hearing a voice that hunts him more often than not, although he was lying on what he really thought about, but he knew at the same time, he meant every word he said as he kisses her on the cheek as Fizz rubs his back, knowing Konrad's a little tense on what Fizz said as she explains it.
Fizz Raab: After all, you hear Erik talking to you as if he's there. Well, I do as well, but that's beside's the point as he rarely talks to me.
Konrad Raab: No, I can't accept I got psychological problems. How can I when I'm so nice to everyone around me?
Fizz Raab: Even nice people can get these sort of problems sometimes darling. I know it's hard to accept it in your case, but you do. I know you're nice, maybe too nice sometimes, but I'm married to someone who's nice all the time which I prefer to somebody who treats me like shit every day.
Konrad Raab: I think about that night where I was this Black Ice guy and you mentioning you like the bad side of me as well, why was that?
Fizz Raab: Because I love how you talk so aggressively, feeling more and more in love with you. I love you anyway, but there's something about you when you wear that mask that gets me turned on, showing me you had an angry psychotic side other wrestlers rarely ever see.
Konrad nods at what Fizz said, knowing she liked Konrad's other side, but he only uses it when he wears the particular dark blue and black mask, other times was the nice light blue and white side of Konrad, but Fizz while was all over Konrad with her hands on his side, lightly kissing his cheek feeling how close her husband was to the baby, places his hands on her stomach for a bit to get Konrad connecting to the baby for a bit. Fizz then asks Konrad a question.
Fizz Raab: You was thinking about wrestling, weren't you?
Konrad Raab: Ja.
Fizz Raab: You told me this morning you were preparing for the Trios Tournament, but I got a suspicion you were thinking more than that and Angelica Jones match.
Konrad Raab: I was.
Fizz Raab: What was it you thought about just a while ago?
Konrad Raab: You know how bad I want to see where I go with the Junior Heavyweight division?
Fizz Raab: Yes.
Konrad Raab: I saw an advertisement on twitter from Championship Wrestling Coalition, stating they are doing a Junior Heavyweight tournament starting from 2nd February until 3rd February and I signed the dotted line to do it. Problem is because I didn't know what the weight restriction was, I weigh fifteen pounds over.
Fizz Raab: You need to go on a strict cutting weight diet?
Konrad Raab: Ja I do.
This got Fizz extremely worried as she knew the methods he would take to get there, especially she know how extreme Konrad would get with the weight cutting method approach, more so she saw so many MMA fighters cut weight dangerously and he had two weeks to lose fifteen pounds which isn't going to be easy to do, but at the same time, she knew how much Konrad wanted to achieve his dreams as she says this.
Fizz Raab: While I know how bad you want to be the Junior Heavyweight champion, this scares me because of the methods you'd take. Like the time I caught you using laxatives to lose weight and that's not the way to do it, nor does overextend your training and not eating.
Konrad Raab: But I want to see how I do because I know if I retired today, I doubt it for the rest of my life if I could be successful in the division if I could've been a Junior Heavyweight champion or what if I vary my wrestling moves.
Fizz Raab: And I get that, but I'm worried you'll take drastic risks to cut weight, especially in the two-week frame. You're not listening to me, are you?
Konrad Raab: I am. Tell me how I cut weight correctly?
Fizz Raab: Obviously you're on a vegetarian diet so that makes things easier, but you need to drink a heck a lot of water, more than usual except three days before the tournament itself. Cutting out any starchy, sugar and fruit foods is another thing so basically, you'd only eat a lot of protein and fat especially eating a lot of leafy vegetables and salmon.
Konrad was listening very hard to his wife, more so he gets notepad and paper to write down everything he's been told to do to ease off the worries Fizz has when Konrad's cutting weight as she waits for him to stop writing before she says more.
Fizz Raab: If you can, take hot baths, but hot showers can work as well as the more you sweat, the more you lose water. I suggest for you, seeing you're in shape, do gym work four times a week as you need to rest from cardio work you'll do a lot which I suggest to do for half an hour to an hour max, but at the same time, lift some weights as well to not lose as much muscle.
Konrad nods his head as he listens to Fizz on her advice. Of course, she knew the advice she gave him was only a guideline as she's not a professional, but she certainly knows she'll do something about that when it comes to get Konrad a personal trainer and a dietitian just for this particular cutting weight diet he'll be on. After he's written everything, he gives Fizz a kiss.
Konrad Raab: Danke
Fizz Raab: You're welcome. When are you gonna start this diet?
Konrad Raab: Tomorrow.
Fizz Raab: You promise me you'll take Mattheus to AMA Supercross race on Saturday, doing no gym work?
Konrad Raab: Ja.
Fizz has her thumbs up as Konrad obviously needed to have three days off from training, although he still has to drink lots of water and eating a very strict food sources he must stick to in order to drop fifteen pounds in two weeks. It would've been a demanding task if it was a week, but it was in two weeks he had to lose it as Konrad says this.
Konrad Raab: I still have to wrestle Angelica Jones and other opponents this week so it's more than enough matches as apart of not only cutting weight but also preparing to be in the Trios tournament since you know how much fun I had with it last year.
Fizz Raab: I hope you achieve those things, proving people wrong once again, you can evolve and be a champion who's won a heavyweight, hardcore, and Junior Heavyweight belts.
Konrad Raab: Also winning the Trios tournament would be an icing on the cake if I'm selected. Thank you for your great advice, I will take everything you said on board as I've written down everything on the notepad.
Fizz Raab: You need to get some sleep as that's another thing you'll need to do is to sleep as that also helps you lose weight too. Love you.
Konrad Raab: Love you too.
Fizz and Konrad kissed each other on the lips as Fizz touches Konrad's body due to most likely seeing it for the last time until Friday as he had to get up to fly to many areas as he did come back from Las Vegas to thank Sin City Wrestling staff for helping Lord Raab and Samuel get their careers kicked off, making them famous as Konrad already falls asleep as Fizz turns the lights off and falls asleep herself.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Day two of weight cutting and talking to Adrenaline Rush about Konrad's weight cutting diet. Memphis, Tennessee. Tuesday 16th February. (Off Camera)
Konrad found a gym nearby where he was camping for the entire time he's cutting weight where he could get time to start his second day of cutting weight so he could make the two zero five mark to compete for the Junior Heavyweight title contenders tournament in Championship Wrestling Coalition in two weeks time. Of course, he started yesterday, doing four hours of gym work with rests and drinking water in between.
It was a very different side of Konrad who followed everything Fizz told him to do on cutting weight in the safest way possible as he wanted so badly to achieve something none of his family could ever do. Konrad was sweating a lot, even dripping from his forehead on the amount of cardio work he's done in the gym.
Of course a trainer seems to be looking on towards what Konrad's doing as it was clear Fizz found a trainer to keep an eye on him to not overdo training he's supposed to do as he's lifting weights to still gain the muscle he had as if he didn't, he'd lose muscle in his body. It was all going well yesterday when he started, but also again today where he's doing everything he can to lose fifteen pounds.
At the same time, it was going for six hours now with Konrad knowing he'd had to stop, but he had no reason to up to that point, until Adrenaline Rush looking for every gym around for Konrad as they were told by Fizz he was camping and most likely find him in the gym as Tyler shouts out while Konrad shouts to breathe each weight he lifts.
Tyler Tucker: Konrad.
Konrad looks around and sees Tyler and Craig standing to watch him work out as he stops, being out of breath as he picks up his shirt to lean against the wall, allowing sweat drip down from his forehead as he was completely covered with sweat, even had to take his shirt off during the workout as he says this.
Konrad Raab: Give me a minute.
It's crazy to do six hours of gym time as it was clear Konrad had overextended time in the gym, but he did take breaks and drink a lot of water as he turned around and sat down on the bench to drink lots more water as today, he's drinking gallon of water as he dashed to the bathroom to pee. He comes out a few minutes later with a towel and wipes the sweat off his forehead as Craig speaks to him while Konrad eats some nuts.
Craig Thomas: What are you doing?
Konrad Raab: Cutting weight.
Tyler Tucker: What?
Konrad Raab: You heard me, I'm cutting weight.
Craig Thomas: But you're already in great shape.
Konrad Raab: It's not good enough.
Tyler Tucker: What do you mean?
It was clear Konrad had to tell them as they likely know where to find him from Fizz as trainer that watched him pat him on the back to be done for the day as he rubs the towel all over his body, feeling hot as he drinks a large jug of water as he shouts a bit, knowing the questions from Tyler and Craig hasn't been forgotten as he says this.
Konrad Raab: You know I've always wanted to try out the Junior Heavyweight division?
Craig Thomas: Yes.
Konrad Raab: I signed my name on the dotted line to do the Junior Heavyweight title tournament in CWC on February 2nd, but I'm fifteen pounds over the maximum weight for the tournament. I got two weeks to lose it.
Tyler Tucker: Fizz feared this might happen. That's dangerous.
Konrad Raab: I've had hour rests and drinking water in between which I only drink from this period of time. I need to do this and nothing's gonna stop me from reaching goals no other Heavyweight has done in wrestling.
Konrad was thankful to have friends like Adrenaline Rush understand why he was doing this, although they thought he hadn't rested at all during the workouts he's done in the gym today as he eats nuts before eating a protein bar to get food in his system as Craig says this.
Craig Thomas: I'm guessing you're on a strict diet too.
Konrad Raab: Yes I am as I'm only eating protein and fat foods at the moment along with just drinking water and coffee in the mornings. I can't eat fruit or any starchy and sugary foods, although I don't eat surgery food anyway, at least I can eat eggs.
Tyler Tucker: It's good to see you doing weight cut training and hearing about it but we wanted to come and talk to you about Angelica Jones.
Konrad Raab: I've fought her before, but that's two years ago when she was a completely different person, much like myself, although I still haven't forgotten what she did to me to kick me downstairs at Best Of The Best tournament.
Konrad clearly doesn't forget things too easy when it comes to what people did to him in the past, especially when he recently watched videos of his matches against Angelica Jones, including the elimination chamber match and Tyler and Craig only just remembered how low and sneaky she had been to Konrad in the past, although they say this.
Craig Thomas: At the same time, she's been very respectful to us. We've had hard battles against both her and Kayla, but the respect we have between the two teams is there and I'm sure she views you very differently now to before.
Konrad Raab: That's true. I mean look how much I've changed as well with not being afraid to use weapons anymore, being in hardcore matches more often which I'll talk about tomorrow before we travel to Hershey, Pennsylvania to watch me wrestle, being with you guys and now evolving to be a Light Heavyweight wrestler.
Tyler Tucker: Which you're going to do by cutting weight today and yesterday I assume too. However, I do think you should be here for four hours rather than six hours. Not the point though, the point is I see Angelica wanting to change and it seems to me you're so good on giving praise and respect that it's set up for you to help her with it.
Konrad Raab: I'd gladly help her to do that as it's always good to give something back to her, especially I heard her respectful talk and her problems with The Network lately too. This is a start of people seeing the new me very soon along with my preparations for Trios Tournament.
Getting an opportunity for the Adrenaline title was out of his goals temporary because Gable Winchester was getting the shot amongst too many other people wanting the shot too, but he never figures out why people want the title more than other belts around and it seems like in his mind, Junior Heavyweight title was closer to win than Adrenaline title was.
Craig Thomas: I really wish you the best of luck not just with Angelica Jones match, but losing fifteen pounds to reach two hundred and five pounds so you fight in the Junior Heavyweight tournament you've wanted to do since August.
Konrad Raab: Thank you, guys. I fancy hanging out with you guys for a little while. After all, I did my weight loss gym work today and finding something to eat healthy while still sticking to my weight loss diet.
Tyler Tucker: Of course we'll support you just as much as Fizz and rest of your friends will. Let's go.
Konrad Raab: Need to have a shower first, then we'll hang out.
Which was obvious with the amount of sweat Konrad poured from his body from intense workout as he goes into the shower room, taking his gym clothes off and goes to the shower where he places the water temperature to hot, following his weight loss diet and goes in to wash his body off, closing his eyes while washing himself. After he done that, he got out and wipes himself with a towel before he puts his normal clothes on and needing the loo once again. He comes out of the shower room and joins with Adrenaline Rush to hang out, having social time with them the entire day before he gets back to the camping site he's staying at before he goes on camera with his phone.

Trios Tournament preparations and fighting Angelica Jones youtube.com shoot.
It's been two years the last time Angelica and I fought against each other and needless to say, it's been a long time coming, considering she's faced Craig Thomas and Tyler Tucker for the tag title contention spot with Kayla. It speaks for itself how much Angelica over the past few months now how much she's changed, wanting to fight for respect and that's exactly how wrestlers should take this approach to fight for respect as well as wanting to win.
She's had some problems with The Network who have screwed The Sisterhood including Angelica herself more than a few times in matches and attacking them after matches in the ring and backstage. It's a very interesting story where the first time I fought Angelica Jones is actually back at Best Of The Best tournament two years ago where she didn't want to be in the tournament because she wanted the tag team titles with Kayla and she kicked me downstairs for me to win.
Obviously wasn't happy with that and then the last time I fought her was in a multi-person matchup for the US title which I must say she got a lot farther than a lot of people thought as she's extremely talented with a lot of heart and passion for this business along with the rest of her family as well. It's certainly an interesting aspect being in this match because I know how much Angelica wants to gain the respect back to the SCW locker room and not just saying it either, she also shows it too.
What a better matchup for Angelica than me willing to help her with that. I've had a lot of battles against Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine who like Angelica encountered the same problems with other wrestlers, but it's almost the same when they gave the respect back to me, feeling they want to fight me based on pure competition. It's the same scenario and Olek knows I'm the guy to make you be respected around the locker room so I'm looking forward to what fight you'll bring to me because I'm sure you'll bring your complete A game towards me.
Much like I will with you which of course I have to as a way to show Olek how badly I want to prepare myself for the Trios Tournament, taking part in it once again as I enjoyed every single minute of being apart of it last year, especially I performed the best out of everyone in my team as well. I certainly would love another shot at it which I'm sure you do too Angelica.
I know I'd like an Adrenaline title opportunity, but I'm putting that on hold for now as I can wait even until the end of the year to get one, especially me being on this weight cutting diet I'm on at the moment which all of you know why by now and I won't get into that because it's not important to this company, much like me being a hardcore like champion elsewhere at the moment.
I'm focused on Angelica wanting to show me everything she's got and prove to the entire SCW crowd how much she aims to get respect back as she wants to work for it and I gladly give her a great match that both Selena and Amy had against me when they wanted to face me because they know I respected them, more so Craig and Tyler telling me they have respect for Angelica too.
While it's about respect for you, it's about preparing for the Trios Tournament, showing Olek why he should pick me by tearing the house down for the fans tomorrow night in Memphis, Tennessee, leaving them to see one of the best matches on Breakdown, but sadly, I'm going to walk out the winner with my hand raised after I've pinned you in the middle of the ring because I'm gonna show how much I've improved and evolved as a wrestler over two years ago. All I have left to say is prepare to be Iceinated by The Iceman.
It's ten at night where Konrad and his pregnant wife Fizz had spent the whole day, playing and in Konrad's case, taking his kids out to the playground to run around for four hours as he never really got the chance to be with his kids as often as he'd liked, but at the same time, he'd much prefer working over staying at home, doing nothing as he could never see himself retiring from this sport as of yet as there's no reason for him to do so.

Fizz Raab: Don't lie, Konrad, I can see it in your face your hiding something from me.
Konrad Raab: The only thing I care about right now is you carrying my baby, feeling more and more in love with the fact although it was never meant to happen, I never regret I turned into another man to do what I did to you.

Day two of weight cutting and talking to Adrenaline Rush about Konrad's weight cutting diet. Memphis, Tennessee. Tuesday 16th February. (Off Camera)

He comes out a few minutes later with a towel and wipes the sweat off his forehead as Craig speaks to him while Konrad eats some nuts.
Craig Thomas: What are you doing?
Konrad Raab: Cutting weight.
Tyler Tucker: What?
Konrad Raab: You heard me, I'm cutting weight.
Craig Thomas: But you're already in great shape.
Konrad Raab: It's not good enough.
Tyler Tucker: What do you mean?
It was clear Konrad had to tell them as they likely know where to find him from Fizz as trainer that watched him pat him on the back to be done for the day as he rubs the towel all over his body, feeling hot as he drinks a large jug of water as he shouts a bit, knowing the questions from Tyler and Craig hasn't been forgotten as he says this.

Konrad Raab: That's true. I mean look how much I've changed as well with not being afraid to use weapons anymore, being in hardcore matches more often which I'll talk about tomorrow before we travel to Hershey, Pennsylvania to watch me wrestle, being with you guys and now evolving to be a Light Heavyweight wrestler.
Tyler Tucker: Which you're going to do by cutting weight today and yesterday I assume too. However, I do think you should be here for four hours rather than six hours. Not the point though, the point is I see Angelica wanting to change and it seems to me you're so good on giving praise and respect that it's set up for you to help her with it.
Konrad Raab: I'd gladly help her to do that as it's always good to give something back to her, especially I heard her respectful talk and her problems with The Network lately too. This is a start of people seeing the new me very soon along with my preparations for Trios Tournament.
Getting an opportunity for the Adrenaline title was out of his goals temporary because Gable Winchester was getting the shot amongst too many other people wanting the shot too, but he never figures out why people want the title more than other belts around and it seems like in his mind, Junior Heavyweight title was closer to win than Adrenaline title was.
Craig Thomas: I really wish you the best of luck not just with Angelica Jones match, but losing fifteen pounds to reach two hundred and five pounds so you fight in the Junior Heavyweight tournament you've wanted to do since August.
Konrad Raab: Thank you, guys. I fancy hanging out with you guys for a little while. After all, I did my weight loss gym work today and finding something to eat healthy while still sticking to my weight loss diet.
Tyler Tucker: Of course we'll support you just as much as Fizz and rest of your friends will. Let's go.
Konrad Raab: Need to have a shower first, then we'll hang out.
Which was obvious with the amount of sweat Konrad poured from his body from intense workout as he goes into the shower room, taking his gym clothes off and goes to the shower where he places the water temperature to hot, following his weight loss diet and goes in to wash his body off, closing his eyes while washing himself. After he done that, he got out and wipes himself with a towel before he puts his normal clothes on and needing the loo once again. He comes out of the shower room and joins with Adrenaline Rush to hang out, having social time with them the entire day before he gets back to the camping site he's staying at before he goes on camera with his phone.

Trios Tournament preparations and fighting Angelica Jones youtube.com shoot.
It's been two years the last time Angelica and I fought against each other and needless to say, it's been a long time coming, considering she's faced Craig Thomas and Tyler Tucker for the tag title contention spot with Kayla. It speaks for itself how much Angelica over the past few months now how much she's changed, wanting to fight for respect and that's exactly how wrestlers should take this approach to fight for respect as well as wanting to win.
She's had some problems with The Network who have screwed The Sisterhood including Angelica herself more than a few times in matches and attacking them after matches in the ring and backstage. It's a very interesting story where the first time I fought Angelica Jones is actually back at Best Of The Best tournament two years ago where she didn't want to be in the tournament because she wanted the tag team titles with Kayla and she kicked me downstairs for me to win.
Obviously wasn't happy with that and then the last time I fought her was in a multi-person matchup for the US title which I must say she got a lot farther than a lot of people thought as she's extremely talented with a lot of heart and passion for this business along with the rest of her family as well. It's certainly an interesting aspect being in this match because I know how much Angelica wants to gain the respect back to the SCW locker room and not just saying it either, she also shows it too.
What a better matchup for Angelica than me willing to help her with that. I've had a lot of battles against Selena Frost and Amy Chastaine who like Angelica encountered the same problems with other wrestlers, but it's almost the same when they gave the respect back to me, feeling they want to fight me based on pure competition. It's the same scenario and Olek knows I'm the guy to make you be respected around the locker room so I'm looking forward to what fight you'll bring to me because I'm sure you'll bring your complete A game towards me.
Much like I will with you which of course I have to as a way to show Olek how badly I want to prepare myself for the Trios Tournament, taking part in it once again as I enjoyed every single minute of being apart of it last year, especially I performed the best out of everyone in my team as well. I certainly would love another shot at it which I'm sure you do too Angelica.
I know I'd like an Adrenaline title opportunity, but I'm putting that on hold for now as I can wait even until the end of the year to get one, especially me being on this weight cutting diet I'm on at the moment which all of you know why by now and I won't get into that because it's not important to this company, much like me being a hardcore like champion elsewhere at the moment.
I'm focused on Angelica wanting to show me everything she's got and prove to the entire SCW crowd how much she aims to get respect back as she wants to work for it and I gladly give her a great match that both Selena and Amy had against me when they wanted to face me because they know I respected them, more so Craig and Tyler telling me they have respect for Angelica too.
While it's about respect for you, it's about preparing for the Trios Tournament, showing Olek why he should pick me by tearing the house down for the fans tomorrow night in Memphis, Tennessee, leaving them to see one of the best matches on Breakdown, but sadly, I'm going to walk out the winner with my hand raised after I've pinned you in the middle of the ring because I'm gonna show how much I've improved and evolved as a wrestler over two years ago. All I have left to say is prepare to be Iceinated by The Iceman.
