Chapter 2
Big Momma and Big Poppa Dudley.
The house where the Dudley boys grew up was not much.
It was a simple three bedroom cottage with a lounge room and, small laundry and a kitchen with limited space. The boys and their parents would sit in front of the TV set making ten dollar bets on the wrestling matches.
Patch smiled at the memory of Bubba putting $500 on a match between The Ultimate Warrior and The Junkyard Dog with their father, he was so sure that the Warrior would come out on top in that cage match. But like Big Poppa Dudley always said, "the pin is mightier than the sword" just because the Dog was not well known as the Warrior did not mean he did not have the capacity to beat him.
In the end JYD won and Bubba handed over 500, any normal father would do the right thing and let him keep the money but not Big Poppa, he would hold out his hand for the twenty and spend it on god knows what, because Big Poppa was not a parent he was more like a friend, a friend that your really close to.
Mr and Mrs Dudley were kind and gentle parents and refused to be called Mum and Dad, it made them feel old, so they told their children to call them Big Momma and Big Poppa.
At first D-von was a bit embarrassed because he would have his many girlfriends over and he would have to call his parents Big Momma and Big Poppa; one of them found it really cool and used it all the time and is still a close family friend.
Today the four brothers were celebrating Patch getting into the WWE.
The food was in fancy plates all set up neatly on the table.
He got a kiss and a hug from his mother, a pat on the back that sent him lurching forward from his father.
They all sat down at the dinner table and began eating.
"I'm so proud," Big Momma cried happily, "all my boys are WWE superstars."
"Momma we came back," Spike said reminding her again for the hundredth time, "the only one who's knew to the picture is Patch, and he may have gotten himself kicked out already if we don't win that Extreme rules match."
"Yes, but your brother also got a number one contender ship match against the Great Khali next week on Raw on his first night, I don't think that's ever happened before." Said Big Poppa, beaming at his youngest son.
"we don't even know if Khali took the bait yet dad, he has to put the number one contender ship on the line." Said Patch.
Big Poppa grunted, "That numb skull will do anything to prove a point Patch I have been up against men like him before."
Patch knew this was true, Big Poppa used to go under the name Bulldog Dudley in WCW, back then he was one of the Biggest names in wrestling. He was a huge man who weighed in every night at a very heavy four hundred thirty seven pounds.
His father and Uncle Glen were the best tag team ever. Glen went by the name of Buck Buck Dudley.
They invented all the moves that the Dudley Boys used, Buck Buck bomb became the Bubba bomb, The Dudley Dog was still used by Spike and Patch, Knuckles became Testify and the Buck jump became the Dudley Rumble.
They were the original Dudley Boys, but then Uncle Glen died shortly after WCW's first ever table match, Big Poppa said his last words were, "Bull Dog! Get the tables!"
Dinner ended and the boys left.
Patch fumbled with the keys to his apartment.
He finally found the right key and opened the door.
His apartment consisted of four rooms. A bathroom with no hot water, a kitchen that over looked the lounge room which had an old an old portable TV that picked up three channels including Fox, channel five and the discovery channel. He had a bedroom with a bed that folded into the wall and a desk with a computer on it.
On his walls he had wrestling posters galore.
Patch flicked on the TV to see ECW flick onto the screen, Patch went behind the bench and made himself a sandwich.
Patch looked on the screen a tables match between Finlay and Hardy had just come to an end.
And then something else weird happened, the camera was backstage with Dreamer, Sandman, Thorn and punk staring at the camera. Tazz was holding a microphone up to dreamer.
"Tommy Dreamer, you have a match next week," Tazz told him as if he didn't know, "tell us why did you challenge the Dudley Boys to an extreme rules match."
Dreamer looked cold.
"Well you see Tazz those guys were asking for it the minute they came back to WWE, you see what the cameras did not see was that Sandman and I sent a message to the Dudley Boys loud and clear that WWE did not need them, With sledge hammers! And what did they do? They came Back! Like all WWE rejects do. Spike tried to prove a point buy staying. But he left shortly after when we put him through three tables and gave him a chair to the throat." Dreamer was red in the face now, "we intend to put them back where all rejects go, TNA!"
And for the first time in his career Tazz jumped.
Patch smirked at the TV.
"Oh it's on!" he said.
