I guess the day of reckoning seems like it’s finally going to be upon us. In the very heart of the city of sin itself LAW has invaded town for one of it’s most anticipated shows of the year. The Queen of the Ring. Queen of the Ring is a night where wrestlers will know what way their careers are going to move in and all of the fans are going to be in for a real treat as they are in for so many blockbuster matches. To be bloody honest you couldn’t have asked for a much better card and right smack dab in the middle of it everyone is going to finally witness the anticipated showdown between myself and Amy Jo Smyth. A submissions match to really determine who the best is at their craft of technical wrestling.
To be honest this feud might have seen like it started during the likes of that…. Ewww it disgusts me to even think about it, but that glitter bomb that could be seen all across the world. Well at least on television. I know I damn sure felt it as did my husband, but truth be told. This war between Amy Jo and I had started way before that. It started on the confines on Twitter when we couldn’t help but throw shade at one another. Throw endless shade at each other.
I felt like I was protected under the LAW contract. Never in a million years would I ever imagine AJS signing a contract with one of the most growing Women’s wrestling companies on the planet. I never imagine her actually coming to LAW to deal with me but sure enough she did just that, and I came to the realization that perhaps my mouth shouldn’t write checks that I aren’t sure I want to be cashed, but now that she has made her way onto the roster. I am not going to be one to back down away from her.
AMy Jo Smyth… I know you see yourself as this amazing submissionist and considering your long tenured career in this business I would have to agree that you are perhaps one of the premier wrestlers to have ever stepped foot inside of a LAW ring. You may even be the biggest free agent signing in a very long time, and maybe I don’t know what I was getting into when I decided to pick on you.
But regardless if I truly believe I have what it takes to beat you inside the ring. The one thing that you need to understand is that despite getting into a lot of shit with so many wrestlers in this business. Despite being one of the biggest conflict starters in the locker room and it doesn’t matter if I am walking around as the annoying little twat who is trying to be socially accepted by everybody on my Twitter feed, or that annoying little brat whose selfish ways have driven a rift between her friends, family, and band.
The reality of everything is everybody knows one main thing that remains true about Kate Steele. No matter the company, no matter the place, or whatever type of match I might find myself in. If there is one thing that remains true of Kate Steele it’s the fact that as soon as that bell rings you can bet your ass that I am going to step into that ring and give nothing less than one hundred and ten percent.
I give and leave every single bit of myself in the center of that ring and that is something that won’t ever change.
You can ask Camacho how true this is as she can tell you about how much we went to war inside of this company and despite putting her through an unholy amount of hell with the pink ladies I brought it in that Last Woman Standing match. I threw everything I possibly could in the heart of that ring and although I didn’t beat her. You could say that I earned her respect.
Or ask Mackenzie Roberts. I was at the time the second longest reigning Marquee Champion of all time. The woman who dethroned Nyako. Who gave her my absolute best and we wrestled a classic in the main event of a LAW main event. I was well spent and only when I had nothing left to give and the ropes weren’t in sight was when I found myself tapping out.
The fact is Amy Jo Smyth while I might be Grover in your eyes, and you love to come at me with your use of gifs, name calling, and insults. The fact is when that bell rings and I am standing in the heart of that ring. I become a different entity altogether. I become the Siren. The woman who won’t stop until she has her opponents in her clutches and the are shipwrecked. That is my purpose Amy Jo Smyth.
I am a walking disaster of personal problems. A walking closet of emotions and hair dye. My outer appearance has always been that of a disaster and it’s been like that since I first entered into the wrestling business but if there is one thing that reigns consistent within me. It’s what I bring in the middle of that squared circle when the bell sounds.
Because on the inside of the ring that’s where I really find myself belonging somewhere. I find myself accepted and I know a lot of people like to question that I am a make pretend punk rocker, or a baker, or what have you. But nobody can question my desire when it comes to competing inside the ring because I have always been consistent to my in ring performance.
There’s a reason why I am the First World Champion in this company, and there’s a reason why whenever I end up winning a championship I put myself in a position to have lengthy title reigns to the point where I come close to or nearly shatter records.
It’s because in this world of wrestling it doesn’t matter what people think of me. None of that matters. I can just tune it out and be in my own little world, and that’s where I am able to really focus to the task at hand.
You however seem to want to put a damper on that, and that’s just not going to happen. You think you are going to stop my drive? Or stop me from really ascending to where I want too in this business.
Yeah let me just be the first to say that shit isn’t exactly going to happen because quite frankly I won’t let it. While you may have been doing this a lot longer than I have, and you might have a wall of accomplishments, accolades, and the wounds to go with your long career. Do you think that makes me afraid to fight with you?
It’s that kind of shit that makes me want to rise up to the challenge, and makes me want to fight you at your own game.
People like you love to critique me on being a make pretend whatever and they are quick to jump into what I do with my band, but why don’t you look at the shit in your own eyes. You are a doctor? No A chemist? Oh wait a cop?! You have this laundry list of what you were so why are my hobbies the one that end up getting magnified when you happen to be the same exact way.
Wouldn’t this be the pot calling the kettle black? You might want to shit on me but the truth of the reality is we are two peas in a pot. We are similiar in many of ways Amy Jo Smyth.
We both have this undying need to be in the center of attention. You can call bullshit on that if you want but how else can you explain having this need to compete in all of these wrestling companies? Having this need to constantly put your body through all of that torment and do it each and every single week.
That doesn’t make you this big legit badass. That makes you a fool especially considering your list of injuries keeps on getting bigger and bigger and you are in your mid thirties. You are only going to cause torment to your body especially seeing as you are this bad ass who thinks she can take it to men and women alike.
Seriously calm down, step back, and analyze your life for a moment. As of right now you compete in more companies than me and that in itself is saying something.
But I get it Amy Jo Smyth. Let’s focus on Kate Steele because she’s the one with the problems. Little Grover has issues and it’s not going to stop until you finally demolish her inside that ring. Regardless if you beat me or not do you think I would actually be kept down after an ass kicking from you? You think that would get me shivering in my boots to the point I wouldn’t want to face you again?
No that inspires me to just keep coming back because I love the challenge. At the last Pay Per View I got my ass absolutely handed to me by Camacho. I knew I couldn’t beat her in a fist fight exchange and despite her telling me she was going to beat the shit out of me.
I still tried to stand up with her. I still put my fists up wanting to go toe to toe with her in something I knew I wasn’t good at.
I might be a punk who gets handed the business but I am no punk, and I am not going to get punked out by the likes of you.
I might not be that good at a lot of things but if there is one thing that I know I am good at it’s being a wrestler, and the fact lies in the fact that I have always been nominated for wrestler of the year. That I am always in the match of the year consideration, and that’s because when push comes to shove everyone knows that I absolutely bring it in the ring.
I didn’t train at the All Star Wrestling Gym in Tampa under the likes of Caroline Stark, and Lyn Dallins because I was a punk.
Granted they did kick me out because of my outbursts and I did land up at another wrestling school in Las Vegas training under my sister’s former boyfriend. But I learned to be about wrestling in this business. To live this business and to breathe this business.
You on the other hand like to put your nose in everyone’s business. Inserting yourself into other people’s problems, and now I see you have Kenzi at your home?
People call me immature but truthfully you are the immature one Amy Jo Smyth. During the time of the shooting I came out to the ring to really be sincere with the crowd. Since you know I am bisexual I am part of the LBGT. MY best friend Misty Whitmore used to be my girlfriend so it hit me hard. Especially considering my husband and I reside right there in Tampa which is a 90 minute car ride away but instead of us having that moment with the crowd.
You had to be the selfish one. You had to find your way into intervening what I was sincerely doing and make it a stage for you to get your point across.
What kind of fucked up individual are you? You caused more damage than you did good, and then would go on to embarrass me with a cake which exploded in my face.
I know I took things far when I could have blinded you with that hair dye but let’s get serious now. You are the one that threw the first stone in all of this. You are the one who started with me because you made things worse.
You took what was supposed to be a heartfelt moment and made it into a comedy and for that I can never forgive you for.
Am I a stable person?
By no means no… It was only a few weeks ago where I hit an emotional low. It was reported I went to a psychiatric hospital and I never felt so low in my life. I went back to a very dark place. To times where I saw my sister abusing me again, and to a place where I wanted to commit suicide.
Thank God that I have a loving husband who is there for me, and was able to help me get the help that I honestly needed.
The doctors really helped me and for the very first time in my life I am actually in a position where I am listening to what they have to say.
I don’t ever want to hurt or cheat on my husband again, and it does annoy me when other wrestlers say in the background that Kate Steele sucks. So what am I going to do about it?
Simply prove the critics wrong by continuing to be that beast that I know I can be within the ring.
Truth be told within the last couple of weeks I felt myself really changing who I am Amy Jo Smyth, and if I could take back some of the things I have done to you. I would. But this whole motherhood thing has really gotten to me and I guess it’s what I really needed all along.
Something in the form of maturity and for the past four years in this business I wasn’t really ready to be in a position where I had to give up on some things that held me down, but now with Juliet in my life.
I have come to the realization it can’t always be about me. As a matter of fact it wasn’t about me at all. As a newfound mother I have put her needs before my own and my main goal for this match is to showcase to her that sometimes the best things in life or the ones you truly believe in me.
Now that I finally have her I definitely don’t want the state to come and take her away. She is the only thing that I think about and I want to show to her and the rest of the world that her mother is a stable individual and is the best at what she does.
Amy Jo Smyth at Queen of the Ring I honestly don’t know if I will have what it takes to beat you. You might very well be better at submissions then I am but if there’s one thing I am aiming to do. It’s to get you to respect what I do inside of the ring. I think that is my main goal in all of this.
This will be the very first Queen of the Ring where I will enter the ring without being involved in a title match and to be honest I am actually enjoying that fact. Enjoying that you and I could just go out to that ring and do what we do best.
Are you ready to steal the show and are you ready to see what happens when you step inside the ring with LAW’s Siren?
Expect to be lured into a Siren’s Song, and if I have my way you will eventually find yourself Shipwrecked. Good luck Amy Jo Smyth… You are going to need all the luck you can get if you think you are going to get me to submit…
See you in the ring, and remember even the most biggest of things come in the smallest of packages…
Tampa Bay, Florida
Steele-Warren Household
{At the Steele-Warren household it seemed as there was a party going on of some sort. Today the Warren’s were celebrating that the adoption of Juliet. For the first time in Kate’s life she felt responsibility, and she was passionate about something. She was passionate about her daughter, and nothing could take that away from her. The Warrens were throwing a huge bbq. Kate and Todd’s relatives had both come out in order to celebrate the huge occasion. Teddy smiled as he stood by the grill. Him and his biological father Markus Reeves were cooking hamburgers and steaks. Todd smiled as he looked at his dad.}
Teddy: “So what do you think of my elite BBQing skills. You have to admit I am a grill master.”
{It wasn’t long before the little red haired girl walked over to the grill as she held a plate towards him.}
Juliet: “Daddy are the burgers ready?!”
{Almost in a flash Kate walked over towards Juliet and grabbed her by the hand. She gently pulled her away as she led her far away from the grill. }
Kate: “Pumpkin let’s leave daddy alone. He’s cooking in front of a hot girl and we really don’t want to bother him. Besides I don’t want you to get burned by stepping too close…”
{The little girl looked at her mother as she nodded her head in agreement.}
Juliet: “Ok mommy…”
{Juliet smiled in return as she put her plate down and started to run around the backyard area. It was at that moment that her sister in law Dawn had walked over to where Kate was standing and offered a smile at her sister in law.}
Dawn: “I have to be honest… I really am proud of you Kate… I know some would say you didn’t have the focus to be a mother but from what I can tell. You really will be there in that girl’s life…”
Kate: “To be honest I hope so Dawn… She’s all I think about. I have been waiting for her for so long and she is my way of doing it all over again…”
{Dawn raises an eyebrow as she glances back at her sister in law.}
Dawn: “What do you mean do it all again?!”
Kate: “I guess what I am saying is she is my way of establishing that certain level of maturity in my life that was missing. I grew up with having a silver spoon in my mouth. Gaining everything I ever wanted from my father and mother. I appreciate everything they have done for me. Honestly I do but somewhere I feel like I was too busy always looking for a handout or expecting things to be given to me. That it caused me to develop a bratty attitude. To the point that I looked forward to the world stopping on a dime just for me. I looked forward to getting my way in every situation and if things didn’t go my way. All it would require is a simple temper tantrum and people would give in and give me what I want.”
{Kate points at Juliet in the distance as she offers a long sigh.}
Kate: “But she is the very opposite of what I was growing up. She came through an orphanage. She came from a world of not having a mother or father, and just being appreciative to have a roof over her head and food on the table. She is a survivor and as happy as I am to parent her in all honesty I feel blessed that I could learn how to go through maturity from a six year old girl. Am I afraid of what might happen with me as a parent? Truthfully yes because I know what kind of person I am. I know who I used to be and I don’t want any of me to ever rub off on Juliet because she’s better than that…”
Dawn: “Well I wouldn’t be too worried about it. When you really put your mind on something. You always succeed at whatever it is that you wish to become…”
Kate: “But that’s the thing Dawn… I don’t want to wear parenting like it’s a new shade of hair dye or the newest flavour of the month. I want to be a great parent because it’s what’s best for Juliet. Am I afraid? You damn right I am but at least I have a great network of friends in Wendy Briese who can really help me considering she is someone who knew what it meant to be a great wrestler and an awesome parent.”
Dawn: “Sounds like a plan but you shouldn’t rely on looking at somebody else. You should do what you feel is right or maybe look towards family for help. I am sure Cindy would help you out if you truly asked her…”
Kate: “After I broke her arm just to show off for a wrestling company? I really don’t think that’s a good idea…”
Dawn: “It couldn’t hurt and don’t you want to strengthen your ties with all aspects of your family? It might seem weird to you but at least do it for Juliet because that’s who you are really doing it for right? I am just saying you have to think about her before anything else right?”
Kate: “Yeah I guess you do have a point…I can’t hold a grudge not when her future is at stake…”
{As Kate stands there thinking about everything that’s when the newly retired Markus Reeves walks over to where Kate is standing. Compared to the short 5’2 woman Markus at 7 feet tall just dwarf’s her. He smiles as he looks down into her eyes.}
Markus: “So how are you enjoying being a mother? You feeling happy about it?!”
Kate: “Yeah I waited so long for this moment and it finally happened… I just hope I can be the best mother I possibly can for her…”
Markus: “Trust me I have no doubt in my mind that you will. I know I am not the World’s best parent by any means. Always on the go, always on the road but I do my best, and I just want you to know whatever happens I will be there for Juliet as her grandfather. I have a lot of children but I don’t have any grandchildren and I am proud to finally have one. So thank you for granting me the chance to be a grandfather…”
Kate: “Honestly it’s not a problem… Miyoko and I are doing much better and as far as I am concerned the moment you reconnected with your long lost son in Teddy. I accepted you as a father in law…”
Markus: “You mean my son Apollo?!”
Kate: “Ok… Now you are pushing it but I am happy that you will be in her life...And that’s all that matters…”
{Markus smiles as he nods his head in agreement.}
Markus: “And seeing as I am the grandfather you know days with grandpa are going to be extra special. Expect me to spoil Juliet like none other. Late nights. Ice cream every night and it will be you to correct whatever it is that I do wrong…”
Kate: “Please don’t… I am working very hard on making sure she doesn’t become bratty…”
Markus: “You can handle it… Just think about everything that you put your parents through… I am sure it what you deserve and it could be quite the character builder…”
{Kate seems uneasy as she shrugs her shoulders.}
Kate: “I rather not… I rather just focus on doing what I feel is right…”
Markus: “Anyway Apol… Ahem Teddy is looking over Juliet and I just wanted to take this time to welcome you into the Reeves family…”
Kate: “Thank you it’s an honour and I hope I can be a daughter in law you are proud of…”
Markus: “Well seeing as you are a Reeves now and you seem to have this big submission match coming up. I think it’s time you learn the one that really makes a person a Reeves. Something I only teach to my most closest of family members….”
{Kate raises an eyebrow.}
Kate: “And that would be?”
Markus: “The Evil Stretch… Are you ready to learn it?!”
{Kate can only smile as wide as possible.}
Kate: “Let’s go for it…”
Markus: “Come on… Let’s go into the basement… And it’s time to train you. This move isn’t for the weak of heart….”
{And with that Dawn keeps an eye on Juliet as Kate and Markus enter into the house and head for the basement…}
You know I really am looking forward to this match with Amy Jo Smyth because I feel like it’s the match that I desperately need, and it’s the first time that Juliet will be live at an arena to see mommy wrestle. Despite everything we said to one another everything we did to one another in the weeks leading up to this event Aims I am looking forward to mixing it with a well seasoned Submissionist. When I first entered into the wrestling world. I may have trained under the best submission based wrestlers in the world. I may have had the best training and have learned my craft on what to do.
But my calling had always been to get involved in Ultraviolence wrestling. I was very good at my craft. I wrestled in matches where I would leave on an ambulance on every single night, and my threshold for pain would be extremely high.
Growing up the way I did with a very abusive sister. It forced me to learn how to take a beating and that’s why the Extreme world was one that I loved so more. It wasn’t so much being able to have a disregard of rules as it was knowing how to take a beating. Knowing what it felt to bleed. It was something that I was accustomed too, and really it didn’t bother me. Why am I telling you this? Because in this world of submission wrestling since I have a background of being able to take so much pain. I am proud to say that I have only been submitted twice in my whole four year career. And that first submission came at the hands of Tara Thunder a woman who was known for making women tap out on a daily basis, and that was her speciality and the second came to MAckenzie Roberts who made the scene with her Queen Bitch Clutch. That’s two women who perfected that one craft.
The point is if you think you are going to get me to tap out you got another thing coming. You better make sure you wear me down. You better beat the unholy hell out of me because I won’t tap out because I feel like I have something to prove as soon as that bell rings. After everything we been through me tapping out would give you that justification that Kate Steele didn’t live up to the hype and that’s not what I intend to do.
I intend to prove to not only you but the rest of the world that I belong inside of that ring. I intend to show you what happens when Kate Steele steps through those ropes and wrestles her heart out. I intend to earn your respect and you better believe that’s what I will do before the night is over.
You might destroy and decimate me but you will respect me because that’s what I live for every time I enter the ring.
When people look at me they always say the same thing. They always talk about my undying need for attention. My need to change myself just to be socially accepted, and it’s the same thing over and over again.
And as much as I may act the same way over and over again. It get’s to a point where you are simply saying the same thing that the masses are saying and you don’t think I have all of that scouted. While you are focusing on what I do outside of the ring I am focused on what you are doing inside the ring. I am zoned in on you as an athlete and that’s what makes me absolutely dangerous.
You AJS have been on a roll from what I can see no matter the wrestling company it doesn’t take you long to instantly move yourself up through the ranks and you position yourself to be fighting for a championship within a month’s time. That is absolutely impressive.
In the other SCW you are fighting for a title, and in another company you are a trios champion along with being a co champion with Roxi Johnson?
Absolutely stunning if not that’s beautiful. But don’t sell me short like I don’t matter because there’s a reason why I was the first World Champion in this company. There’s a reason why I took down that long streak of Nyako. There’s a reason why in the other SCW I shattered Mercedes Vargas record with the Roulette Championship, and in a trios match although they had a great tag team reign. Crystal, myself, and Melanie found a way to beating Team Hero with Vargas.
It’s because in that wrestling ring I become something else entirely. Something that you don’t see on Twitter. Something that is missing and people question where that Kate comes from. But it’s the Kate Steele that doesn’t take shit from anybody and you are no exception to this Amy Jo Smyth.
So before you stand on your high horse and pout your chest like you think you know me I know I am walking into a match where I am in a win, win situation. If you kick my ass fine. It’s whatever to me. You were the stronger wrestler. You were favoured coming into the match. You have been doing this a lot longer than I have. So I will take this lost as a learning experience and simply move on.
But If I do beat you… That means that I know how to separate my life outside the ring and my life inside. That means I am as good as I think I am and no matter what I do. I still know how to turn it up a notch when it means the most.
Whatever the case is the main thing I wish to get out of this match is to show my daughter that her mother is a fighter, and when we do wrong. It’s up to us to accept our punishments. We can’t get by on being a crybaby, and sometimes things don’t always go our way.
Essentially I want my daughter to be better than me and lord knows the World doesn’t need another Kate Steele, and I wouldn’t want to wish that on anybody.
I know my shortcomings…
I know my failures…
But she will grow to be better than me and as a mother that’s all I really want out of this.
At Queen of the Ring we dance, and regardless of what happens. I am ready to accept whatever it is that comes my way because whatever doesn’t kill us will only make us stronger.
See you in the ring AJS, Goodluck… You will definitely need it...
To be honest this feud might have seen like it started during the likes of that…. Ewww it disgusts me to even think about it, but that glitter bomb that could be seen all across the world. Well at least on television. I know I damn sure felt it as did my husband, but truth be told. This war between Amy Jo and I had started way before that.

I felt like I was protected under the LAW contract. Never in a million years would I ever imagine AJS signing a contract with one of the most growing Women’s wrestling companies on the planet. I never imagine her actually coming to LAW to deal with me but sure enough she did just that, and I came to the realization that perhaps my mouth shouldn’t write checks that I aren’t sure I want to be cashed, but now that she has made her way onto the roster. I am not going to be one to back down away from her.
AMy Jo Smyth… I know you see yourself as this amazing submissionist and considering your long tenured career in this business I would have to agree that you are perhaps one of the premier wrestlers to have ever stepped foot inside of a LAW ring. You may even be the biggest free agent signing in a very long time, and maybe I don’t know what I was getting into when I decided to pick on you.
But regardless if I truly believe I have what it takes to beat you inside the ring. The one thing that you need to understand is that despite getting into a lot of shit with so many wrestlers in this business. Despite being one of the biggest conflict starters in the locker room and it doesn’t matter if I am walking around as the annoying little twat who is trying to be socially accepted by everybody on my Twitter feed, or that annoying little brat whose selfish ways have driven a rift between her friends, family, and band.
The reality of everything is everybody knows one main thing that remains true about Kate Steele. No matter the company, no matter the place, or whatever type of match I might find myself in. If there is one thing that remains true of Kate Steele it’s the fact that as soon as that bell rings you can bet your ass that I am going to step into that ring and give nothing less than one hundred and ten percent.
I give and leave every single bit of myself in the center of that ring and that is something that won’t ever change.
You can ask Camacho how true this is as she can tell you about how much we went to war inside of this company and despite putting her through an unholy amount of hell with the pink ladies I brought it in that Last Woman Standing match.

Or ask Mackenzie Roberts. I was at the time the second longest reigning Marquee Champion of all time. The woman who dethroned Nyako. Who gave her my absolute best and we wrestled a classic in the main event of a LAW main event. I was well spent and only when I had nothing left to give and the ropes weren’t in sight was when I found myself tapping out.
The fact is Amy Jo Smyth while I might be Grover in your eyes, and you love to come at me with your use of gifs, name calling, and insults. The fact is when that bell rings and I am standing in the heart of that ring. I become a different entity altogether. I become the Siren. The woman who won’t stop until she has her opponents in her clutches and the are shipwrecked. That is my purpose Amy Jo Smyth.
I am a walking disaster of personal problems. A walking closet of emotions and hair dye. My outer appearance has always been that of a disaster and it’s been like that since I first entered into the wrestling business but if there is one thing that reigns consistent within me. It’s what I bring in the middle of that squared circle when the bell sounds.
Because on the inside of the ring that’s where I really find myself belonging somewhere. I find myself accepted and I know a lot of people like to question that I am a make pretend punk rocker, or a baker, or what have you.

Do you think that makes me afraid to fight with you?

You can call bullshit on that if you want but how else can you explain having this need to compete in all of these wrestling companies?

You are only going to cause torment to your body especially seeing as you are this bad ass who thinks she can take it to men and women alike.
Seriously calm down, step back, and analyze your life for a moment. As of right now you compete in more companies than me and that in itself is saying something.
But I get it Amy Jo Smyth. Let’s focus on Kate Steele because she’s the one with the problems. Little Grover has issues and it’s not going to stop until you finally demolish her inside that ring. Regardless if you beat me or not do you think I would actually be kept down after an ass kicking from you?

I might be a punk who gets handed the business but I am no punk, and I am not going to get punked out by the likes of you.
I might not be that good at a lot of things but if there is one thing that I know I am good at it’s being a wrestler, and the fact lies in the fact that I have always been nominated for wrestler of the year. That I am always in the match of the year consideration, and that’s because when push comes to shove everyone knows that I absolutely bring it in the ring.
I didn’t train at the All Star Wrestling Gym in Tampa under the likes of Caroline Stark, and Lyn Dallins because I was a punk.
Granted they did kick me out because of my outbursts and I did land up at another wrestling school in Las Vegas training under my sister’s former boyfriend. But I learned to be about wrestling in this business. To live this business and to breathe this business.
You on the other hand like to put your nose in everyone’s business. Inserting yourself into other people’s problems, and now I see you have Kenzi at your home?
People call me immature but truthfully you are the immature one Amy Jo Smyth. During the time of the shooting I came out to the ring to really be sincere with the crowd. Since you know I am bisexual I am part of the LBGT. MY best friend Misty Whitmore used to be my girlfriend so it hit me hard. Especially considering my husband and I reside right there in Tampa which is a 90 minute car ride away but instead of us having that moment with the crowd.
You had to be the selfish one. You had to find your way into intervening what I was sincerely doing and make it a stage for you to get your point across.
What kind of fucked up individual are you? You caused more damage than you did good, and then would go on to embarrass me with a cake which exploded in my face.
I know I took things far when I could have blinded you with that hair dye but let’s get serious now. You are the one that threw the first stone in all of this. You are the one who started with me because you made things worse.
You took what was supposed to be a heartfelt moment and made it into a comedy and for that I can never forgive you for.
Am I a stable person?
By no means no… It was only a few weeks ago where I hit an emotional low. It was reported I went to a psychiatric hospital and I never felt so low in my life. I went back to a very dark place. To times where I saw my sister abusing me again, and to a place where I wanted to commit suicide.
Thank God that I have a loving husband who is there for me, and was able to help me get the help that I honestly needed.
The doctors really helped me and for the very first time in my life I am actually in a position where I am listening to what they have to say.
I don’t ever want to hurt or cheat on my husband again, and it does annoy me when other wrestlers say in the background that Kate Steele sucks. So what am I going to do about it?
Simply prove the critics wrong by continuing to be that beast that I know I can be within the ring.
Truth be told within the last couple of weeks I felt myself really changing who I am Amy Jo Smyth, and if I could take back some of the things I have done to you. I would. But this whole motherhood thing has really gotten to me and I guess it’s what I really needed all along.
Something in the form of maturity and for the past four years in this business I wasn’t really ready to be in a position where I had to give up on some things that held me down, but now with Juliet in my life.
I have come to the realization it can’t always be about me. As a matter of fact it wasn’t about me at all. As a newfound mother I have put her needs before my own and my main goal for this match is to showcase to her that sometimes the best things in life or the ones you truly believe in me.
Now that I finally have her I definitely don’t want the state to come and take her away. She is the only thing that I think about and I want to show to her and the rest of the world that her mother is a stable individual and is the best at what she does.
Amy Jo Smyth at Queen of the Ring I honestly don’t know if I will have what it takes to beat you. You might very well be better at submissions then I am but if there’s one thing I am aiming to do. It’s to get you to respect what I do inside of the ring. I think that is my main goal in all of this.
This will be the very first Queen of the Ring where I will enter the ring without being involved in a title match and to be honest I am actually enjoying that fact. Enjoying that you and I could just go out to that ring and do what we do best.
Are you ready to steal the show and are you ready to see what happens when you step inside the ring with LAW’s Siren?
Expect to be lured into a Siren’s Song, and if I have my way you will eventually find yourself Shipwrecked. Good luck Amy Jo Smyth… You are going to need all the luck you can get if you think you are going to get me to submit…
See you in the ring, and remember even the most biggest of things come in the smallest of packages…
Tampa Bay, Florida
Steele-Warren Household
{At the Steele-Warren household it seemed as there was a party going on of some sort. Today the Warren’s were celebrating that the adoption of Juliet. For the first time in Kate’s life she felt responsibility, and she was passionate about something. She was passionate about her daughter, and nothing could take that away from her. The Warrens were throwing a huge bbq. Kate and Todd’s relatives had both come out in order to celebrate the huge occasion. Teddy smiled as he stood by the grill. Him and his biological father Markus Reeves were cooking hamburgers and steaks. Todd smiled as he looked at his dad.}
Teddy: “So what do you think of my elite BBQing skills. You have to admit I am a grill master.”
{It wasn’t long before the little red haired girl walked over to the grill as she held a plate towards him.}
Juliet: “Daddy are the burgers ready?!”
{Almost in a flash Kate walked over towards Juliet and grabbed her by the hand. She gently pulled her away as she led her far away from the grill. }
Kate: “Pumpkin let’s leave daddy alone. He’s cooking in front of a hot girl and we really don’t want to bother him. Besides I don’t want you to get burned by stepping too close…”
{The little girl looked at her mother as she nodded her head in agreement.}
Juliet: “Ok mommy…”
{Juliet smiled in return as she put her plate down and started to run around the backyard area. It was at that moment that her sister in law Dawn had walked over to where Kate was standing and offered a smile at her sister in law.}
Dawn: “I have to be honest… I really am proud of you Kate… I know some would say you didn’t have the focus to be a mother but from what I can tell. You really will be there in that girl’s life…”
Kate: “To be honest I hope so Dawn… She’s all I think about. I have been waiting for her for so long and she is my way of doing it all over again…”
{Dawn raises an eyebrow as she glances back at her sister in law.}
Dawn: “What do you mean do it all again?!”
Kate: “I guess what I am saying is she is my way of establishing that certain level of maturity in my life that was missing. I grew up with having a silver spoon in my mouth. Gaining everything I ever wanted from my father and mother. I appreciate everything they have done for me. Honestly I do but somewhere I feel like I was too busy always looking for a handout or expecting things to be given to me. That it caused me to develop a bratty attitude. To the point that I looked forward to the world stopping on a dime just for me. I looked forward to getting my way in every situation and if things didn’t go my way. All it would require is a simple temper tantrum and people would give in and give me what I want.”
{Kate points at Juliet in the distance as she offers a long sigh.}
Kate: “But she is the very opposite of what I was growing up. She came through an orphanage. She came from a world of not having a mother or father, and just being appreciative to have a roof over her head and food on the table. She is a survivor and as happy as I am to parent her in all honesty I feel blessed that I could learn how to go through maturity from a six year old girl. Am I afraid of what might happen with me as a parent? Truthfully yes because I know what kind of person I am. I know who I used to be and I don’t want any of me to ever rub off on Juliet because she’s better than that…”
Dawn: “Well I wouldn’t be too worried about it. When you really put your mind on something. You always succeed at whatever it is that you wish to become…”
Kate: “But that’s the thing Dawn… I don’t want to wear parenting like it’s a new shade of hair dye or the newest flavour of the month. I want to be a great parent because it’s what’s best for Juliet. Am I afraid? You damn right I am but at least I have a great network of friends in Wendy Briese who can really help me considering she is someone who knew what it meant to be a great wrestler and an awesome parent.”
Dawn: “Sounds like a plan but you shouldn’t rely on looking at somebody else. You should do what you feel is right or maybe look towards family for help. I am sure Cindy would help you out if you truly asked her…”
Kate: “After I broke her arm just to show off for a wrestling company? I really don’t think that’s a good idea…”
Dawn: “It couldn’t hurt and don’t you want to strengthen your ties with all aspects of your family? It might seem weird to you but at least do it for Juliet because that’s who you are really doing it for right? I am just saying you have to think about her before anything else right?”
Kate: “Yeah I guess you do have a point…I can’t hold a grudge not when her future is at stake…”
{As Kate stands there thinking about everything that’s when the newly retired Markus Reeves walks over to where Kate is standing. Compared to the short 5’2 woman Markus at 7 feet tall just dwarf’s her. He smiles as he looks down into her eyes.}
Markus: “So how are you enjoying being a mother? You feeling happy about it?!”
Kate: “Yeah I waited so long for this moment and it finally happened… I just hope I can be the best mother I possibly can for her…”
Markus: “Trust me I have no doubt in my mind that you will. I know I am not the World’s best parent by any means. Always on the go, always on the road but I do my best, and I just want you to know whatever happens I will be there for Juliet as her grandfather. I have a lot of children but I don’t have any grandchildren and I am proud to finally have one. So thank you for granting me the chance to be a grandfather…”
Kate: “Honestly it’s not a problem… Miyoko and I are doing much better and as far as I am concerned the moment you reconnected with your long lost son in Teddy. I accepted you as a father in law…”
Markus: “You mean my son Apollo?!”
Kate: “Ok… Now you are pushing it but I am happy that you will be in her life...And that’s all that matters…”
{Markus smiles as he nods his head in agreement.}
Markus: “And seeing as I am the grandfather you know days with grandpa are going to be extra special. Expect me to spoil Juliet like none other. Late nights. Ice cream every night and it will be you to correct whatever it is that I do wrong…”
Kate: “Please don’t… I am working very hard on making sure she doesn’t become bratty…”
Markus: “You can handle it… Just think about everything that you put your parents through… I am sure it what you deserve and it could be quite the character builder…”
{Kate seems uneasy as she shrugs her shoulders.}
Kate: “I rather not… I rather just focus on doing what I feel is right…”
Markus: “Anyway Apol… Ahem Teddy is looking over Juliet and I just wanted to take this time to welcome you into the Reeves family…”
Kate: “Thank you it’s an honour and I hope I can be a daughter in law you are proud of…”
Markus: “Well seeing as you are a Reeves now and you seem to have this big submission match coming up. I think it’s time you learn the one that really makes a person a Reeves. Something I only teach to my most closest of family members….”
{Kate raises an eyebrow.}
Kate: “And that would be?”
Markus: “The Evil Stretch… Are you ready to learn it?!”
{Kate can only smile as wide as possible.}
Kate: “Let’s go for it…”
Markus: “Come on… Let’s go into the basement… And it’s time to train you. This move isn’t for the weak of heart….”
{And with that Dawn keeps an eye on Juliet as Kate and Markus enter into the house and head for the basement…}
You know I really am looking forward to this match with Amy Jo Smyth because I feel like it’s the match that I desperately need, and it’s the first time that Juliet will be live at an arena to see mommy wrestle. Despite everything we said to one another everything we did to one another in the weeks leading up to this event Aims I am looking forward to mixing it with a well seasoned Submissionist. When I first entered into the wrestling world. I may have trained under the best submission based wrestlers in the world. I may have had the best training and have learned my craft on what to do.
But my calling had always been to get involved in Ultraviolence wrestling. I was very good at my craft. I wrestled in matches where I would leave on an ambulance on every single night, and my threshold for pain would be extremely high.
Growing up the way I did with a very abusive sister. It forced me to learn how to take a beating and that’s why the Extreme world was one that I loved so more. It wasn’t so much being able to have a disregard of rules as it was knowing how to take a beating. Knowing what it felt to bleed. It was something that I was accustomed too, and really it didn’t bother me. Why am I telling you this? Because in this world of submission wrestling since I have a background of being able to take so much pain. I am proud to say that I have only been submitted twice in my whole four year career. And that first submission came at the hands of Tara Thunder a woman who was known for making women tap out on a daily basis, and that was her speciality and the second came to MAckenzie Roberts who made the scene with her Queen Bitch Clutch. That’s two women who perfected that one craft.
The point is if you think you are going to get me to tap out you got another thing coming. You better make sure you wear me down. You better beat the unholy hell out of me because I won’t tap out because I feel like I have something to prove as soon as that bell rings. After everything we been through me tapping out would give you that justification that Kate Steele didn’t live up to the hype and that’s not what I intend to do.
I intend to prove to not only you but the rest of the world that I belong inside of that ring. I intend to show you what happens when Kate Steele steps through those ropes and wrestles her heart out. I intend to earn your respect and you better believe that’s what I will do before the night is over.
You might destroy and decimate me but you will respect me because that’s what I live for every time I enter the ring.
When people look at me they always say the same thing. They always talk about my undying need for attention. My need to change myself just to be socially accepted, and it’s the same thing over and over again.
And as much as I may act the same way over and over again. It get’s to a point where you are simply saying the same thing that the masses are saying and you don’t think I have all of that scouted. While you are focusing on what I do outside of the ring I am focused on what you are doing inside the ring. I am zoned in on you as an athlete and that’s what makes me absolutely dangerous.
You AJS have been on a roll from what I can see no matter the wrestling company it doesn’t take you long to instantly move yourself up through the ranks and you position yourself to be fighting for a championship within a month’s time. That is absolutely impressive.
In the other SCW you are fighting for a title, and in another company you are a trios champion along with being a co champion with Roxi Johnson?
Absolutely stunning if not that’s beautiful. But don’t sell me short like I don’t matter because there’s a reason why I was the first World Champion in this company. There’s a reason why I took down that long streak of Nyako. There’s a reason why in the other SCW I shattered Mercedes Vargas record with the Roulette Championship, and in a trios match although they had a great tag team reign. Crystal, myself, and Melanie found a way to beating Team Hero with Vargas.
It’s because in that wrestling ring I become something else entirely. Something that you don’t see on Twitter. Something that is missing and people question where that Kate comes from. But it’s the Kate Steele that doesn’t take shit from anybody and you are no exception to this Amy Jo Smyth.
So before you stand on your high horse and pout your chest like you think you know me I know I am walking into a match where I am in a win, win situation. If you kick my ass fine. It’s whatever to me. You were the stronger wrestler. You were favoured coming into the match. You have been doing this a lot longer than I have. So I will take this lost as a learning experience and simply move on.
But If I do beat you… That means that I know how to separate my life outside the ring and my life inside. That means I am as good as I think I am and no matter what I do. I still know how to turn it up a notch when it means the most.
Whatever the case is the main thing I wish to get out of this match is to show my daughter that her mother is a fighter, and when we do wrong. It’s up to us to accept our punishments. We can’t get by on being a crybaby, and sometimes things don’t always go our way.
Essentially I want my daughter to be better than me and lord knows the World doesn’t need another Kate Steele, and I wouldn’t want to wish that on anybody.
I know my shortcomings…
I know my failures…
But she will grow to be better than me and as a mother that’s all I really want out of this.
At Queen of the Ring we dance, and regardless of what happens. I am ready to accept whatever it is that comes my way because whatever doesn’t kill us will only make us stronger.
See you in the ring AJS, Goodluck… You will definitely need it...
