“Friendly Fire”
Opening Thoughts
Jazmyn Rain: I hate fighting my friends. But I know that sometimes, it’s something that needs to be done. Adrien Cochrane isn’t going to be the first time, nor will he be the last, that I know for sure. In fact, I’ve been thinking about the last time I was in this situation back in GCW only about a month ago. It was the first Livewire of the new year and I was defending my Global Championship against a guy by the name of Timothy Myers. A little background… Tim is one of my very best friends in GCW. We’re almost like siblings, in the same vein as Adrien and I are. Although, Tim is a lot more stubborn and can sometimes be an asshole, which he’ll even admit.
So, I put my title on the line against him. The kicker? I requested for it to happen because it was what was RIGHT! Tim, a two-time champion in his own right, had come so close to coming into contention for it time and time again only to be constantly screwed over so I felt it was only fair for him to get one chance at the Global title. The tensions were high, no doubt… and as a competitor… he had taken a championship, GCW’s International Championship, away from me before and I was determined not to let it happen again. Words were exchanged, old wounds were opened. On the night of January 13… the championship… AND our friendship was at stake.
And I honestly didn’t know what to do. I was so scared of losing the championship AND losing a friendship that meant so much to me…
DATE: January 13, 2017
Event: GCW Livewire (during the show)
[Livewire fades into the trainer’s room and the first shot is of a flat screen TV display. The match is quite familiar to most GCW fans as it happens to be Jazmyn Rain defending the International Championship at Deadly Dreams 2015 against Timothy Myers. The match is in its ending stages and of course, as the fans remember playing it out, it ends with Timothy winning the championship from Jazmyn. Suddenly, the footage pauses and a sigh is heard from off camera. The scene pans revealing GCW Global Champion Jazmyn Rain watching that match all over again. She looks a little bit glum, the memory of the match fresh in her mind.]
Derek: I didn’t know that match haunted you so much…
[Jazmyn looks surprised when she turns behind her and sees Derek.]
Jazmyn: Well, I don’t know if “haunted” is the right word but yes, there’s regrets.
Derek: Tim is a hell of a wrestler though, you have to give him that.
Jazmyn: That’s true, I’m never going to take that away from him but gosh, that wasn’t exactly a great time in my career. It wasn’t losing the International title to him necessarily, it was so much leading up to that. I wasn’t the International champion I should have been because I allowed myself to be distracted by Global championship aspirations… then again, my head was offline 24/7. But, that’s still no excuse. Leading up to that event, I was being choked out by Jessica Jones and losing matches to Trenton Snow. It was during a time where I couldn’t buy a win against a Global title contender, if you remember that.
Derek: I know what you mean.
Jazmyn: So imagine my confidence, having been through that, and then losing the International Championship to someone that was a newcomer, who had barely been with GCW for what? Six weeks? My pride was crushed that night, honestly. It was nothing Tim did. If the situation was reversed, I would have done the same thing. I don’t blame him for going out and winning that match. But that was the night I questioned if I’d ever be a Global Champion at all!
Derek: Right but hey… it all worked out, didn’t it? You became a TWO TIME GCW Global Champion.
Jazmyn: And so did he…
Derek: Right… am I missing something here because I wasn’t expecting that response from you?
[Jazmyn shakes her head, having an annoyed expression on her face.]
Jazmyn: You know, Tim LOVES to remind the world that his first championship win happened at MY expense, doesn’t he? And I’m going to be honest with you, that bothers me. But then again, that’s Tim for you right? It’s like he already forgot that the reason why he has this shot is because I did the right thing and pushed for this considering all the times he got screwed over in 2017 as it pertains to my championship. So what? He’s just going to cut into an old wound and rub that in my face? Is that it?
Derek: Jaz…
Jazmyn: And you know, thinking about everything since then… he’s had it SO good! He’s the reigning GCW Wrestler of the Year. I’m not! He actually won a Global championship match against Trenton. I didn’t. Unlike me at that same Resurrection, he managed to hold on to HIS title. And for so long when it came to my championship, it was largely “Tim this, Tim that” and along the way to even get that title shot, he had to go through that Deadly Dreams tournament and who did he get past in the first round? Me! Okay so Myra fucked me over on that one, but STILL. And yet he wants to be an asshole and puncture an old wound? I guess you can excuse me for having a LITTLE envy in me…
Derek: While much of that may be true, did you or did you not win “Most Loved” instead of him?
[Jazmyn raises her eyebrows a bit, surprised at the question.]
Jazmyn: Well, that IS true.
Derek: Don’t be envious or bitter, beautiful. I know that wasn’t a good night for you, but what’s past is past. You’re not that same wrestler anymore, you know, that went through all that. If anything, he has every reason to be envious of you.
Jazmyn: What do you mean?
Derek: He may have won the Global title back from Myra, but did you not defend it against her without losing it? And who ended Utopia while he lost the title to Aphrodite? You did! You and I both know he would have loved winning the title back from her. But he never got to do that. You did! You need to remember how good YOU’VE had it over the last year. Sure, it took a while for you to finally regain the title, but you still had a better 2017 than he did. You didn’t have to put up with Malcolm Cross now, did you? Look, all I am saying is, don’t let your feelings cloud your judgment. Whether you like it or not, you two are tied to the hip and far more than just having a surrogate sibling friendship. Your careers go hand in hand. Over the last two and a half years, there have been no two better wrestlers on the Livewire brand then you two. Heck, to be honest? You’re probably going into the GCW Hall of Fame together in the same class. Just remember, the past is the past. This is now. You go out there and beat him… and avenge what happened if you feel the need to do that… but remember, for all his faults, he’s done so much for you too over the years.
[Jazmyn looks down, trying to figure out what Derek means, but she’s certainly calmed down from her annoyance quite significantly.]
Derek: If you really think about it, Tim’s the first Global title defense you’ll ever have without ANY sort of controversy tied to it. Go ahead and win, but don’t destroy your friendship over it either. I’ll leave you alone to think about it…
[Derek kisses Jazmyn in the forehead before he leaves the scene. The Global Champion stands there, soaking in what she just heard, coming to a bit of an epiphany of sorts knowing that much of what Derek just told her is absolutely right. Jazmyn calms down and thinks about his words as the scene ends.]
Further Thoughts…
Jazmyn Rain: Honestly, if it wasn’t for that conversation with Derek, my fears would have fed into my bitterness over the past with Tim Myers, one of my best friends in this business. And as a result, I would have lost both the Global Championship AND our friendship, the former because I would have been distracted by the past and he would have taken advantage of it, the latter because I would have been bitter about the former. Derek more than likely saved my championship reign and my friendship… and I took a moment to remember what was really important…
LATER ON LIVEWIRE…
[Moments before the main event, GCW Global Champion Jazmyn Rain is inside of a studio with the championship slung over her shoulder. She’s willing and determined as she typically is, but she also knows that this isn’t going to be just any title defense. However, just realizing the fact brings a small smile out of her as she begins to express her thoughts to the roaring cheer of the fans.]
Jazmyn: I’ve had a chance to think things over… of what Derek said to me earlier… and he’s right in so many ways. I lost myself for a bit in some negative emotions, but that’s because being the competitor I am, it does get to me when an opponent brings up something that I’m not particularly proud of, but that’s fine. I’ve become a much stronger wrestler since he took that International title from me and I’m not necessarily trying to “get even” with him by winning tonight. No, the one thing I do need to do is give him the match I didn’t give him then, and the match that he deserves. That is all I owe him and that’s all I need to give him because one thing that I am NOT going to give him is the GCW Global Championship that I worked so hard for 20 months to win back! Now, I will admit this, he’s going to be a different championship defense and I am GLAD for that because for whatever reason, there always seems to be some sort of shenanigan that clouds things every time I defend this championship.
In my first ever defense against Myra, yeah I won. But what most were talking about is how Aphrodite prevented her from cheating which… well… ironic considering recent events, but still…
Then I defended against Golden Class in a triple threat match and that ended up in a no-contest, which only served to prove them right about me and to make their criticisms even LOUDER.
Remember the title defense I had against Hayley Gold with all of Apocalypse being special this and special that? Enough said there.
And after that? Well, I’ve beaten that Resurrection to death a few times at this point.
Fast forward to two weeks ago when there was the Summer-Jessica stuff in the background. Fair play to Jessica for NOT cheating, but I’m not the kind of champion that likes to capitalize off a distraction.
So Tim… tonight is MY chance to prove that I AM a capable champion, one that Livewire truly deserves and it’s going to happen against YOU!
[The fans cheer as Jazmyn briefly pauses.]
Jazmyn: We’re tied at the hip, you and I. So much in common: especially our successes. Though with our successes, we’ve had different ways of going about them. But still, in spite of all of that, I’m not going into this match with bitterness in my heart over our last one on one encounter. I’m not going into this match with envy in my soul over how your 2016 went, especially since you can definitely have that same envy about my 2017 and I wouldn’t blame you for it. I’m NOT letting any negative emotions or any negative experiences weigh me down. You are going to get me at my absolute BEST… EVER! You deserve this shot, I’m not denying you that but I know that in heart and in spirit, you don’t match up to me!
I beat Aphrodite for this championship because I fought with that heart and spirit, not with anger and bitterness.
I’m not filled with stubborn hate like you are sometimes!
The bottom line is, Tim, you may have taken one championship away from me, but I am NOT about to let that happen again. We may very well be the best two Livewire wrestlers in recent memory, and maybe we might end up in the same Hall of Fame class, but don’t focus on the past, or that International title match. Don’t focus on the future and the Hall of Fame. Focus on NOW and NOW… I am going to prove that on THIS given night, I’M better!
And Kendra Classic… I know you’ll be watching. I’ll have eyes on the back of my head knowing you can pop up out of nowhere. You embarrassed me two weeks ago and there’s no way I’m letting THAT happen again. You want a shot at this, you’re going to have to earn it like everyone else. I’m a champion on a mission tonight Kendra! You’d be wise not to fuck with me tonight!
But for now… I defend something that means every piece of the world to me and this is going to be tough against someone I consider a brother, but I know I’m going to pull through. Best of luck Tim. Maybe you’ll be a Global Champion again in the near future, no doubt. But it’s not happening at MY expense!
[Jazmyn takes one last deep breath before she turns and leaves the studio. The crowd cheers her vigor and determination as the scene comes to an end.]
Jazmyn Rain (voice over): And so… the match was fought… it was a battle for the ages, one of the finest matches of my career. I didn’t allow my bitterness to swallow me whole. I didn’t allow my fears to get the better of me. Instead, I focused on what was in front of me in that ring… and although Tim gave it his best, I came out the better wrestler and retained the GCW Global Championship. Though, that night didn’t end in the ring….
AFTER THE SHOW…
GCW Global Champion Jazmyn Rain leans against the wall, still in her wrestling gear as the exhausted Charlotte native clutches the Global Championship that she was just able to defend. She’s elated to retain the championship… but a thought crosses her mind…
Jazmyn: I hope I didn’t just sacrifice our friendship over a championship…
Voice: You didn’t…
Jazmyn’s eyes widen with surprise as she turns toward her left and sees an equally exhausted Timothy Myers standing in front of her.
Jazmyn: I didn’t?
Tim Myers: We’re always going to be close. The match we just had wasn’t going to change that. All I expected and wanted out of you was to give me the match of your life and that’s exactly what you gave me. Your heart was definitely more in it this time around than it was the last time we fought for a title. I guess we’re even now, huh?
Jazmyn: Well…. Um…
Tim Myers: Jaz, I know me taking the International title from you and mentioning it from time to time bugged you.
Jazmyn: It did…
Tim Myers: And I can understand feeling like you were in my shadow in 2016 while I was in the thick of the Global Championship picture and you weren’t. Imagine how I feel now…
Jazmyn nods.
Tim Myers: But I want you to know that it doesn’t change the way I think of you. You will always be a friend of mine and someone that I can embrace as a surrogate big sister. I’m sorry if mentioning our last title match hurt your feelings.
Jazmyn: No… it’s okay. And I’m sorry for some of the stuff I said about you earlier. I didn’t realize what was important until Derek talked some sense into me.
Tim Myers: You’ve come a long way Jaz… as a person and as a wrestler. You have no reason to ever sell yourself short in any match against any opponent friend or foe. If I ever see you do such a thing, I’m kicking your ass. I’m just saying.
Jazmyn and Tim both laugh.
Tim Myers: I’ll talk to you later. Enjoy this. You earned it. We’re even closer tonight than we were before.
Jazmyn: Thank you! Glad to hear!
Jazmyn smiles at Tim before he turns and walks away, leaving the GCW Global Champion alone to revel in her moment on this night in GCW.
Closing Thoughts
Jazmyn Rain: After remembering this experience: facing a close friend of mine and ending up with the best of both worlds, and after hearing what Adrien has had to say, my fears have been suppressed. This match had put me in an emotional funk and had me worrying so much about the small things and all the unnecessary noise surrounding me. Now though?
I’ve been able to remind myself that the noise doesn’t matter and that regardless of the outcome, it will not have any effect on the noise… OR how I feel about myself as a professional wrestler!
