All the HOPE in the world

So it's 9.12am and I'm bloody wide awake, with little sleep and a fun day of throwing myself about in Lycra pants ahead, I'm using the morning to relax and calm like I always TRY to do on wrestling days. Tonight I head back to HOPE Wrestling to hopefully settle the score with LJ Heron, who has fast become enemy. After 3 huge battles, myself being on the losing end of all 3 for one reason or another, we embark on battle number 4. After a double count out we're headed into NO DQ NO COUNTOUT!! This will be the end of the war, I HOPE (see what I did there, magnificent and subtle right?....right?) I took a long hiatus (translated, Harvey Dale stopped booking me lol) for 7 shows, which may not seem long but it was almost a year since anyone had seen me last, so re introducing myself to the HOPE local fans was difficult. The regular wrestling fans luckily knew who I was but at that time were all behind LJ, so I had the difficult job of trying to reintroduce myself and get myself back over with the faithful. So what do I do? Come out and scream 'come on!' No fuck that! This ain't the camps! I have to use what has continuously bought me to the dance, and that's my gift of charisma, my ability to draw the people into the story and my in ring skills to hopefully wow them. It's quite difficult when you're on the losing end of 2/3 of those battles, however the first time they jeered me and took no pity on my loss, however the second time they started getting behind me and now, I have the HOPE faithful on my side. It's been great to challenge myself with having to re-identify myself to a crowd, and manage to show the casuals who I am as well as my in story disposition. I think this i something not a lot of people do enough of. The only thing that changes with me is my move set depending on my disposition. My character, the All Day Star Ryan Smile is always the same. This makes it more challenging for me, but I hope to get to a point like a Dave Mastiff, where he is just The Bastard all the time and wether he is heel or face the reaction comes organic without him having to clap his hands and give a little girl a foam finger! It's great to try and better your skills but character and charisma (if BBC2 didn't show anyone) is vital! I'm glad to have been able to scratch my surface of potential for the HOPE fans, and maybe soon I'll get all the recognition for my efforts! Then I can say I achieved this story and feed and played my part to the optimum. Talking of funds, it's been great getting my teeth into something more meaty at HOPE, alongside SWA these are the only two places I've really had a show by show story with a bigger picture complete with actual follow through, presented to me, and frankly I love it. The fans dig a really good storyline and so do I. I feel that the intensity, character requirements and constant challenge of doing something to advance from point B to point C is healthy. Hopefully tonight I come out on top!! Only way to find out is to get your asses down to HOPE Wrestling. The card is great and the quality of work on the show continuously challenges other promotions equally. Till then......then being whenever I pipe up and ramble some more! Peace #ADS

SHRRRROPSHIRE!!!

So today, in just under 8 hours we'll be back and performing in front of the amazing SWA crowd. SWA is one of my favourite places to work purely because of the great atmosphere that their shows in Dawley have. I swear if you could bottle it, it'd sell for like £4.50 a bottle, and that's expensive for a bottle of atmosphere! Tonight I face a tough one, as I issues an All Day Open Challenge, that isn't all day despite the name.....which was answered by not one but BOTH of the Hunter Brothers. Now everyone is asking how I can confidently feel that this is a fair match, well I found out that there's something pretty beneficial on the line that even the likes of brothers may smack eachother over. That being said, doesn't mean i'm not expecting the Hunters to try and pray on me....and no not in that way......I hope :\ Question is, how long is it before that organic male aloha trait kicks in? Not sure myself but i'm damned sure i'm doing everything I got to to get the job done tonight like I always do. With the recent cross communication and my best mate in the whole world Pete Dunne and The Vulture Squad, it's been a little difficult to focus on much else, considering i'm not responsible for my mates actions, however like I said there's way too much to lose tonight to let that get to me. The Annual British Lions Tournament kicks off tonight showcasing some great talent all vying for a chance to take on Damian Dunne, who has been an amazing champion. One of the most underrated workers in the country, and you may boo him and cheer me, but love that evil little cunt to bits, it's not kneeasy not to.........see what I attempted there? This whole tournament is full of some of my closes friends and i'm real happy not only to see the talent on show but SWA showcasing so much of it in one tourney. Tonight, if anyone hasn't yet, get your tickets reserved by messaging the page or Simon Brown, as this as every SWA show isn't one you want to miss!! Hope to see most of you there! Tonight the #RyanRevolution begins #ADS

Dog eat dog..........is there no food left?

So I'm just going through the motions on current 'drama' and wanted to ponder on some of the aspects of negativity in wrestling and why sometimes water on a ducks back is the best way.......but then again some ducks prefer to stay dry and it doesn't wash as easily. Pro wrestling offers so many parallels that can often be blurred and at other times clash and when they do we have a recipe for 'drama' 9/10 public drama! Hey don't get me twisted though. Everybody loves a bit of drama, and to be honest wrestling without drama is almost like steak without eggs, there's just no better combination (however i do love a good onion loaf), so when there's drama we always gravitate towards it. Some because their lives are so boring they need the buzz, others because we like the entertainment, and most, so we can make funny banters humour of the situation and rape google of meme's. Irregardless, at which point do we question the impact this may have in general? When there is drama made public using the good old keyboard rifle, theres always someone behind it, who is involved, unless you are a certain anchor in an abyss, however that's a different blog altogether.....and normally on the flip side of that coin is someone else! There's a war of words, loads of popcorn/wacko jacko meme's and it's over! So what happens when it's not over? What happens when yesterdays news is repackaged into todays news, and then tomorrow's news and the next day and the next day? We get BORED! At that point it just becomes a bad energy, and a complete bottomless pit, in which nobody wants a part of, well except the blood thirsty hyenas who want DEM BONEZZ! So what next? The sun is in the sky, and your washing machine is broken, you got that dirty laundry airing out nicely, yet you haven't put out the socks or trousers? Why not? Is this the actions of an attention seeker? Or someone who shit their drawers so bad they can't air them? Maybe this person doesn't wear any underwear at all? #Kinky Either way I feel if you are going to try and do something for the positivity of wrestling or anything for that matter, should be done with the right intentions. Yes there is currently a situation going on, I'm not one to hide behind a smoke screen, and yes I have great relationships with both individuals however I'm not sat on a fence. Shall I tell you why? Because I don't walk on all fours and I'm not covered in wool. I am not a sheep, and have my own opinions, and so should you. If two warriors want to go to war they go to war, whilst his fellow warriors watch and await a victor, the better man wins and all that, however when those warriors join in frankly it becomes bullying. Also striking before an fellow battalion is ready is cowardly. We have all made mistakes, and we've all had a bitch and a moan. Pro Wrestling possesses more bitches than the Red Light Strip in Amsterdam, lol and ironically a lot of our female fans seem to be from there too SAY CHEESE!!!......Bitches everywhere, and frankly as people I think we all have our opinions and sometimes they are indeed bitchy!! Can you hold that against someone? Honestly I feel like if someone was bitching about me, i'd have it out with them......but only if that person is willing to stand their ground and defend themselves. I know if someone was trying to make a mockery out of me, i'd be locking and loading and defending everything from the things said all the way to my 10 inch penis!!!! There really is only so long that, that warrior can stand there and wait.....eventually, as wrong as it is, if you turn your back chances are you will get stabbed. I really think sometimes things are better left unsaid! War isn't always about who's right, it's about who's left.... #ADS

BLOGGING BLOGGING ALL DAY BLOGGING!

So look like I’ve taken to blogging, which I don’t even know how up to date I am with the in thing, however this is just another way for the people to check out what the fuck I’m up to on a day to day or week to week basis! A few people said I should blog so I’m giving this bad boy a once round to see how it runs.

TUE 21 OCT So another weekend of wrestling this week, I’m happy to say this year “like most weekends” as my bookings these last 6 months have rocketed and I’m working every weekend. Which is good for several reasons: 1. MONEY……because we’re in it for the money obvs! 2. EXPERIENCE…every second in the ring is valuable! 3. EXPOSURE….for me the most important. More people getting to see me the bigger my stocks can get. The bigger my stocks get, the more of 1 and 2 I get. Simples.

So I’m at SWA in Telford on Friday, Leeds Professional Wrestling in Leeds on Saturday and then Kamikaze Pro in Birmingham on Sunday.

SWA, easily one of my favourite if not the favourite of crowds that I work in front of. I’ve wrestled some places where I’m confused why people would pay good hard earned money to sit on their hands? 😕 Thoroughly bothers me, and makes no sense. I guess some of the grizzly (just a safe term for grumpy and/or bitter) ‘vets’ will say if the crowd is quiet it’s the workers fault. I don’t quite agree with that premise completely. I for one have been in several situations where even if I handed out fresh, crisp red ones, nobody would make a sound. Even the pin was silent….? DAFUQ?

Anyways I digress, so yeah SWA one of my favourite crowds to be in front of, and this show I’m taking on the best tag team (IMO) in the country THE HUNTER BROTHERS in a triple threat!! I’ve absolutely LOVED every encounter I’ve had with the Hunter Brothers inside the squared circle square, so I am really looking forward to this one! The Hunters really do compliment my style and so I know I can go out there and not try to put a square peg in a round hole. Should be an awesome match and as always I aim to steal the show.

LPW on Saturday in Leeds will be my debut, in a multiman (around 5-6 people, can’t remember) Money in the Bank battle royal gimmick thing. Personally there’s a few things I’m not keen on in wrestling, debuting someone in rumble is one of them. I just feel like, why would you bring in a fresh face talent and then put them in a match where the object is to just throw someone over the top rope? Means for anyone who knows anything about me and may be looking forward to seeing the ADS Ryan Smile……….got news for you. You won’t. What you will see however is love taps galore and me trying to hoist other half naked men over a top rope to win this thing. However, being my first time at LPW, not sure what to expect. We’ll see!

Kamikaze Pro on Sunday. The house that Pete Dunne built, Robbie X mortgages and I rent (lol) - However on Sunday I have an opportunity to huff and puff and blow that house down and build my own from scratch. Sunday will mark my 490th…..YES 490th day as Kamikaze Pro Champion. Since day one right up to now, never missed a show (aren’t I good?) I’m taking in former WWF/E star Hardcore Bob Sparkplug Holly. Am I scared? Nope. Am I quietly aka loudly confident? Yes. Will this be my hardest feat to date? Probably! I always look forward to KP and being able to go out in front of the regular crowd and do my thing. They love to hate me and I just hate them. I don’t plan on losing Sunday, I mean I could just get counted out right?

That being said I’m looking forward to the weekend, I love wrestling so why wouldn’t I?

Loads of people asking about the podcast which has slowed down a little. Been having some issues with my electronics that are refraining me from getting the casts out right now but I have a shit load stored up and will blast everyone with them very soon!

What are you guys up to this weekend, what shows you at? Give me a comment or send a pigeon or something.

For today, well I say that but I might be back on this later…..BUT FOR NOW, adios peoples!
