Chapter 22
Jake was icing down his leg. Traci walks into the room. "Jake I don't care what you say you are not stepping in the ring unless the title is on the line," Traci says. "Yeah you're right. I can't even stand up right now. Hell I was lucky at Final Resolution," Jake says. "You sure were. Plus now you have to get ready for Danielson," Traci says. "Yeah I guess, I…" "Wow," Traci says suddenly. "What?" Jake asks. "The baby just moved," Traci says with a huge smile on her face.
"No way," Jake says with a smile on his face. "Yeah it was just a little, but the baby moved," Traci says. Jake puts his hand on Traci's stomach. "The baby may not move again for a while," Traci says. "Yeah well I got nothing better to do," Jake says. "See this is why you need to stay healthy for our baby," Traci says. "Trust me I plan to drop Danielson on his head with the DVD and end this thing," Jake says.
"That's not going to be as easy as it sounds," Traci says. "Traci when the hell is it ever easy. Kicking drugs and alcohol tough as hell. Getting into to TNA, well AJ cashed in every IOU he had. And well you have seen everything after that, so I don't need go over all of that," Jake says. "Yeah you would think sooner or later you would get at least one easy break," Traci says.
Meanwhile Bryan Danielson walked into the ROH wrestling school and found himself his face to face with Samoa Joe. "What the hell do you want Joe?" Bryan asks. "Well I just wanted to get an up close look at the man that betrayed everything ROH stands for this week," Joe says. "What the hell are you talking about? All I have done is defend this belt against all comers," Danielson says. "And you threw it all away when you joined up with Paul Heyman," Joe says.
"You know what shut the hell up. I take a step to prove once and for all that ROH is the best promotion in wrestling. The one thing you never could. But what are doing? You are doing your bitching about it. I tend to remember when you joined up with Jeff Jarrett. So don't start judging me because I join up with someone to make sure all the politics in TNA don't screw me over. So get out of my way," Danielson says.
"You know what sooner or later you are going to pay because I know Reed and he isn't going to let a pail prick like you beat him," Joe says. Danielson keeps walking away before turning back and hitting Joe in the back of the head with the ROH title he had in his gym back. "Give Reed that message," Danielson says before walking away.
Later on Jake is studying tapes of Danielson. Jake is trying to find a way to block the small package. "There has got to be some kind of tip off for this jackass. I can counter the cattle mutilation and the chicken wing. But I'll admit this is the best small package I have seen in a long time," Jake thinks.
Jake goes back to watching the DVD and replay Danielson getting the small package again for what seems like the one hundredth time. He still can't see any tip off. "Alright Jake you can't train for a while. You need use this time and show "Mr. Small package" that he won't do that to me," Jake says. Jake watches again and this time sees something very little thing. He moves as fast as he could on his bad leg over to the DVD play and changes the disk. He skips ahead to another match that Danielson won by small package. He sees what he saw early again. "Holy Brad Armstrong there it is," Jake says.
Traci comes into the living room and sees Jake on the floor. "What happened?" She asks thinking he fell. "Mr. Small package with is the worst name for a male wrester ever, has a tell," Jake says. "Are you serious? I talked to Colt and he spent months trying to figure out something like that," Traci says. "Yeah it's small and maybe the only reason I can see it is because I have been in the ring with him so much but it's there," Jake says with an almost relived look on his face.
