Brian Damage This is the 498th installment of the ‘Wrestling with Sin‘ series. A group of stories that delves into the darker, underbelly of pro wrestling.

SUPERSTAR WRESTLERS : February 1995

Inquiring minds want to know! CAN THE NASTY BOYS BE TRUSTED?

By Donny Laible

[Sure, their bodies have hopped the fence from evil to good, but did their minds jump too?]

After all the lying and cheating, why should anyone believe the Nasty Boys have come clean? There are a few things Saggs and Knobbs should do to prove they are worthy of the wrestling public’s trust and support. 

Keeping out of the SCRAP BAR should be mandatory. Since the Boys have avoided contact with their usual hangout crowd and taken sides with the Rhodes family, World Championship Wrestling has been a kinder, gentler place for all. From reports being complied by WCW Commissioner Nick Bockwinkel’s office, Saggs and Knobbs only now are fully aware of how close they were to being the recipients of a lengthy suspension.

“The Nasty Boys take a licking and keep on ticking. If there is anyone they fear, you'd never know it. They are all over their opponents like a tornado. Headlocks, body slams, dropkicks, and a flurry of fists, that’s what they’re all about,” Ricky Steamboat commented. 

[Knobbs and Saggs haven't changed their style much at all. They merely changed the side their fighting on.]

At this point in their lives and careers, Saggs and Knobbs are far too old to respond to a scolding by any one of WCW’s administrators or be intimidated with threats of being banished to the minor leagues of wrestling. No, the Boys have been set in their ways for quite some time. Only the voice of experience could turn things around for them. Fortunately for them, “The American  Dream” Dusty Rhodes was in the right place at the right time. 

Dusty, along with his son Dustin, fully accepted the Boys as they were. Attitude adjustments were all the Rhodeses asked for. 

[Paul Orndorff takes the air out of Brian Knobbs with a shot to the breadbasket.]

Patience. That is the key.

All along it has remained Saggs and Knobbs’ style to meet a challenge straight on, to be the aggressors. No one knows this better than Pretty Wonderful’s Paul Orndorff and Paul Roma. Both Pauls know there is no text book weapon to defend against two hot heads who step in the ring for a fight. 

[Ricky Steamboat says, “The Nasty Boys can take a licking and keep on ticking.]

They will not be denied what they believe is theirs. The Nasty Boys have a growing number of tag teams concerned. Reports making their way from behind closed locker room doors suggest Colonel Robert Parker is sweating out Saggs and Knobbs’ “going clean” more than any other with a stake in WCW.

[Knobbs tries to decapitate “Mr. Wonderful” with this stiff clothesline.

“Mark my words. Parker is going to pull out all the stops to recruit the Nasty Boys for his Stud Stable. Promises, bribes, bonuses, whatever he thinks will get them to change their minds, the Colonel will be making a pitch to them if he already hasn’t had a private audience with them,” Johnny B. Badd claims.

No doubt about it, the Nasties would rather win a fight than win gold bets. Getting the job done, that’s what the Nasty Boys are all about.

The Nasty Boys should force people like Vader and Lord Regal into picking partners to face them,” says Hacksaw Jim Duggan. “No matter what move they find themselves caught up in, only if they were knocked out cold would the Boys give up. Even if it meant risking injury they wouldn’t be doing all this sacrificing for themselves but as kind of payback for all the garbage they put the wrestling fans though over the years.”

The Nasties should get a manager. Someone who has much the same habits, someone who has been in the same shoes as they and prospered by taking the same approach. Someone like Kevin Sullivan.

There’s absolutely no backtalking or getting out of line with Sullivan. His short fuse would be the last thing either the Boys want to light. Kevin promises to be the father figure they haven't had since turning pro. 

[“Pretty” Paul Roma locks up Jerry Saggs.]

WCW and wrestling fans don’t have to put up with any wrestlers they feel are only out for themselves. Keep a steady course, Boys. One mix up, by accident or not and Saggs and Knobbs may find the unemployment line a bit more boring than they had imagined.

[The Nasty Boys need a manager who can be both a wild man and a father figure–someone like Kevin Sullivan

The Nasties remain one of the top brawling duets in the sport.

The Rock n' Roll Express vs The Nasty Boys - 1988

[sooouth]

toji sighs at the vomit dripping down his shirt. of course, baby megumi felt the need to throw up as soon as he was handed to his father by you. you laugh, taking the also giggling megumi from toji. "Why does this always happen to me?" toji grumbles, walking to your room to clean himself up. your nine-month old wiggles in your hands, and you coo at him. "papa's so yucky isn't he?" megumi waves his chubby hands around—you take it as an agreement. "uh-huh, he's icky." "i can hear you!" toji barks from your room.

raising a baby is not easy, but with toji and megumi, it's fun. Not always fun—there's always hiccups and difficulties—but you're happy. like right now... as toji comes out in a new shirt, huffing and pouting. megumi always causes issues when it comes to him, but never you. megumi just adores his other parent. toji doesn't even know how a nine-month old baby could have a preference, considering he's trying his best to keep any burden off of you.

"i'm not gross," toji pouts, sitting back down on the carpet, a few feet in front of you. megumi squirms, and you set him down on the ground, facing his father. he manages to sit up, reaching out to toji with grabby hands. "oh, now you want to like me, huh? you little brat." toji leans forward to grab megumi's tiny little hands, waving them around and responding to his babbles.

your heart warms—it's just too cute. when you'd first met your husband, he was a homeless, gruff and closed-off man. it's hard to think the two are the same person. you really didn't do much—just gave him enough love for him to try. you're glad.

"why're ya looking at me like that?" toji asks. you leaned against the counter, watching as your husband did the dishes after dinner. he had always insisted to clean while living with you, even if that meant he spent hours doing so. megumi knocked right out after you fed him, putting him to bed. "you're a sexy dad," you snort. toji seems a bit taken off guard. your smile widens as his ears turn red. "are you saying i wasn't sexy before?" "pah. big baby." "your big baby." "and a sap." toji chuckles, looking back down at the half-washed dishes. you watch him the whole time—his strong, calloused hands lathered in soap and water, moving in circular motions. and his arms— "you think megumi would like a little sibling?" toji chokes.

DP X DC PROMPT BECAUSE FUCK SLEEPING I DON’T NEED OXYGEN

It’s a hard summoning. A horrible summoning. The very worst Constantine’s ever been part of, he was expecting a rough ride with an entity of this power but surely this is excessive?

The Ghost King has been known to accept deals for centuries, and yeah the terms are shit but the world is full on ending and the Justice League are out of better options

When the magic lashes out and takes Doctor Fate to his knees, he begins to doubt what they’re doing

Is this really the better option? Really? Sure, Pariah will take the souls of all their enemies into his army for conquest, but if it costs everyone anyway…

**

Danny wrapped arms, legs, and teeth around the telephone pole in Amity Park, growling against the pull

Of COURSE this had to happen three days after he made a joke about “being the only entity John Constantine hasn’t tried to sell his soul to” to Clockwork

He’s not fucking losing the bet about making it to the end of the week

so many people write mattheo to be a cold-hearted, womanizing bastard and while i absolutely love reading that mattheo (🙈), i am a firm believer that he’d be the biggest sweetheart when you’re dating him.

don’t get me wrong, he would absolutely be a cold hearted womanizing bastard… at first. after meeting you, he’d still be reserved, arrogant, rude. but somehow, you manage to sneak past the steel barriers he has surrounding his heart.

and when he realizes this, he’d push you away in every way possible. you offer him your notes when he misses class? “fuck off, i don’t need them. trust me, i’ve got a hundred other lap dogs doing that shit for me.”

and his heart would break a little when he’d see your confused frown, but he’d push the guilt down. love is vulnerability. vulnerability is weakness. that’s what he was taught and that’s what he lived by.

but oh, you’re just too perfect. your pretty little face, your sweet voice, the way your eyes light up when you’re talking about muggle studies or baby rabbits, the way you refuse to leave your dorm without your lucky jewlery. it melted the ice around his heart. he never stood a chance.

so he’d give into your affections at some point. and yes, he’d be the scary, possessive boyfriend everyone expects. he’d throw a punch at anyone who dared to touch you wrong or even look at you wrong. but that’s just the mattheo everyone knows. the mattheo you know is a sweetheart. never allowing you to open your own door or pull out your own chair, braiding your hair for you or helping you put it up at night, spoiling you with every candy, piece of clothing, and stuffed animal you want, tying your shoelaces for you, calling you princess.

and let me tell you, this man is the biggest whore for cuddles. he tells you that sleeping in your presence keeps the nightmares at bay and while that’s true, the real reason why he won’t sleep without cuddles is because he simply needs to feel you as close as possible. he needs your hands playing with his hair or your nails scratching his back. and you can’t even try stopping the movements of your hands because trust me, he is an incredibly annoying whiner. “babyyyy keep going.”

skin-to-skin cuddling is even better. he’ll take his shirt off and force you to do the same, wrapping his arms around your waist and pulling your back into his chest. it’s not sexual; he just needs to feel you as close to him as possible, and your bare skin against his just happens to be the closest thing he has to crawling inside your skin and living there.

my point here is basically that mattheo riddle is a soft boy when he’s in love and i will die on this hill!
