Wrassler Thoughts

[transemacabre]

So for my birthday/Christmas, one of my gentleman admirers got me Jimmy Jacobs DVDs, because the way to a girl's heart is paved with pint-sized emo wrestlers.



I was joking with him that we should just book Jimmy himself for my next birthday. I mean, how much can he possibly charge just to show up and eat cake with me?

Also, WTF is with all the starry-eyed fangirls on Tumblr being like, "Oh, I bet in real life Dean Ambrose is really shy" and thinking he doesn't/never smoked, and choosing to believe the comments about him partying hard on the regular and banging girls are just works or jokes -- look, I don't know the guy, but I know guys, okay, and GURLS y'all are fooling your damn selves. Also, why the fuck are you all up on the dick of a dirty, rough, take-you-home-and-fuck-you-twice guy, while trying to pretend he's probably really Mr. Nice Guy? Be honest with yourself. He's dirty and rough and that turns you on.

BTW, thanks to em25, I now have a new wrassler obsession, and it's PWG's Super Dragon. Basically Super Dragon curb stomps people's faces, wears an awesome mask, and never gives a fuck about anyone or anything, ever. I can respect that. Here's a video about the Super Dragon in his natural habitat, which is him being the baddest motherfucker on the planet every minute of the day.

I think I will have to find some excuse to get my boyfriend to wear a Super Dragon mask in bed, just once. Is that SO WRONG?! Maybe I can get him to paint it on if I don't tell him why.

Thank you! I REALLY don't the whole "awww! Dean's really just a sweetie!" thing. If you wanna crush on some sweet, shy, romantic dude, there are a billion better options. It would be one thing if it was more of the "taming the wild beast" sort of fantasy -- I could understand going for him on that one, even though I've never enjoyed that fantasy. But wanting to believe that he's just a big ole softy who sits at home, I don't know, watching The Notebook and pining for Renee Young, that just makes no sense to me.

That said, I could see him being awkward and weird in real life and sitting around at home watching old wrestling tapes and being twitchy for a while before calling a hooker at 3am. But definitely not sweet. Haha.

I really think it came about because a lot of people are very uncomfortable with what turns them on. Dean does it for them but they don't know how to cope with how intimidating those feelings/impulses are, so they try to convince themselves that he's "probably really shy, sweet, innocent", whatever. By his own admission we know Dean hooks up, parties, formerly did drugs/cigarettes, etc. But his fangirls come up with this concept of him that they can feel okay with being attracted to, a concept that seems at odds with what we know about the guy.

Look, don't get me wrong. If he fell madly in love with Renee Young (or whoever) and they had 50 babies together, I'll be happy for him because he's happy. But I don't think its good to be so in denial about who a person is or how they act when they openly own up to it and are up front about it. I'm like, GURL you are setting yourself up for a heartbreak.

It must be. I get the impression that for a lot of people who find themselves afflicted, getting a thing for Dean Ambrose is kind of a weird journey of self discovery, and people tend to get into a bit of denial about what they're learning. Don't know if you've ever had this happen to you in writing about him -- but more than once I've had someone write to me swearing up and down that they had absolutely no interest in anything remotely kinky until they read my fan fiction and now all of a sudden all of this weird stuff is turning them on and my fic did it to them. Which is a load of crap, of course. If they really had no interest in that sort of thing they wouldn't have read the story considering the description.

Also, I think people thinking he's just going to be all sweet and innocent in Vegas is further made.. I don't know, hard to believe.. by the fact that he LIVES in Vegas (at least for the one day a week or so he lives anywhere). If you weren't from Vegas and had no connection to Vegas, why would you move there unless you enjoyed the kind of partying and/or general weirdness Vegas has to offer? I mean, unless he's working on some kind of campy sideshow act in his free time. Which, granted, I have a whole headcanon about, but still.

The only other reasons anyone lives in Vegas is either they're a Mormon (doubt it) or in the military (nope). Case closed.

I've seen clips of Dean meeting fans and he is sweet - as he should be in that situation- but somehow that has morphed into him being innocent in all aspects of his life. Which isn't the same thing at all.

I could see him being awkward and weird in real life . . .

I agree with this assessment:)
