Anna spoke,"We had tried to stop you at the college parking lot, but you wouldn't respond to anything we told you. So we followed all the way here."
Rumble spoke,"I didn't hear you, since I had lost in my own little world for the last few years."
Humble gestured for Steve to come over to the table.
The waiter spoke,"Sir, what do you need?"
Rumble spoke,"This couple are my folks and get them whatever they want and ask the cook to
time my meal to come out with theirs."
The waiter spoke,"I am pleased to meet you after hearing so much about you two."
The couple was surprised that Rumble had thought of them, while being apart.
Steve had given James and Anna each a menu and they had decided to what they had wanted within minutes. Anna got fish, while James got a steak.
The trio were eagerly awaiting for their meals.
Anna spoke,"You had grown into a strapping young man, son.
Rumble spoke,"The funny thing is that both of my colleges wouldn't even let me take a simple protein shake the whole time I fought in college. I am still considered a smaller man both in wrestling and MMA. The nation is a land of giants, but I am considered the best when it comes to pure skill, aerial moves, and athletic prowess. The only things I lack as an athlete are overwhelming strength and mic skills. I had made all my money, without those two things. I hope that I can get them, while I join the major territories. Oh, what about you two?"
Anna spoke,"My cancer has been gone for the last three years and I am district manager over the local hospital system. I am better off than I ever was. Your father has been working on million dollar homes for the last two years."
Rumble spoke,"I know that, since he had built my home just last year.
James spoke,"What house was that?"
Humble spoke,"The one with the giant pool, full sized work out room and the theater room.
Anna spoke,"You knew that James built your house, yet you did nothing about it?"
James spoke,"You were the one who had us put all the house together with the secret rooms.'
Rumble spoke,"I was the one who did that. I paid you almost twice what the house was worth."
James spoke,"That was a two million dollar house fully furnished easy. Where did you get all
that kind of money?" I made more than two million dollars just by competing around the national
outlaw combat feds, and almost more in ppv buys and merchandise. I am among the richest athletes on
the indy circuit. That is not counting the money I had earned in my open professions and investments."
Anna spoke,"You had become more successful than I had ever hope you to be. What about your love life?"
Rumble smirked.
"You could grabbed ten girls off the back of the line to my hotel room and I wouldn't notice they were even gone."
James spoke,"So you're a player, huh?"
Anna looked disappointingly at her son.
Rumble spoke,"I don't waste money on hotels, so I limit my booty calls most of the time."
Anna spoke,"So, do you never plan to give us grandchildren?"
James spoke,"He has to be too busy to care for a child."
Rumble spoke,"I am not resistant to getting married, I just hadn't found one that satisfied me
beyond mere carnality."
James spoke,"I am proud of you and what you have become. I am sorry that we weren't supportive of your life choices."
Rumble spoke,"It is no big deal now that we are back together. I will show my house, but I have
gotten a much needed debut to attend to."
Anna spoke,"Can we see your debut? We are on vacation, because we was plum determine to find you. We have three weeks off, since we had saved them up for just such of an occasion."
Rumble spoke,"On one condition, I will allow it."
James spoke,"What's that?"
Humble spoke,"You mustn't break kayfabe by acknowledging me as your son. I have kept my
name and face secret for eight years to everyone I know but you two. I will tow the car behind the van,
until thirty minutes out and then we will separate. I have two tickets with me in case I had ran into you
after graduation. A masked wrestler makes a boat load of money from just masks sells. I don't want to hurt my bottom line. Is that clear?"
The couple agreed to those conditions and traveled more than one hundred miles that same night, while Rumble slept on a king sized mattress in the back of his van. James and Anna were given money to stay at the most expensive hotel in the city. Rumble except for his house and his work expenses lived very frugal. He had a home paid for at only twenty years old, with a decent sized nest egg set aside when he has to retire from competing.

It was an early Saturday when the family left for the nearby arena that seated over thirty five hundred people. Rumble had been in some bigger arenas, but not very often. He has starting at a "C"
town that was over guys on the way or the way down. The promotions had three different circuits that each went on for two hundred events a year. The mid tier and secondary champions were the b team, while the world champions were on the a team.
Rumble would make a little more than he had on the indy circuit, while at Midwest combat federation and Gateway combat sports' c teams." He had been called by the second promotion, while on the road, and was able to digitally sign a contract, while James drove the van.
Midwest combat federation (MCF) mainly ran shows on the west side of the four state area, while Gateway combat sports (GCS) was on the east side.
Rumble would debut in a dark match that typically didn't air on TV or on the main part of the ppv. He didn't care who was facing, he just knew that he was going to beat them as quickly as possible.
He was paid the same no matter if he worked two minutes or two hours.
Rumble came out to generic music and facing a jobber for an opponent.
He did not waste any time and kicked the wrestler in the side of the head. Knocking him out
instantly, causing him to fall on his back.
Humble put a foot on his fallen foe and gave the most nonchalant pin that had ever been performed. He was victorious, yet he still wasn't satisfied. He told the announcer to get more people for him to beat. He was given as he had requested.
He beat four more foes in similar fashion.

That afternoon he fought in a cage against two opponents. MMA wasn't know for handicap matches, but rumble made the promotion make an exception.
The two fighters charged the mask fighter with fists flaring.
Rumble jumped vertical backwards to the top of the cage and carried out a double head stomp to his foes.
The foes fell to the ground, while Rumble curb stomp the duo into oblivion
The ref had no choice but to stop the match. He was victorious again.
