Chapter 97: "Like it Should Be"
Kevin Nash's POV

- - -

When WCW shut down, I really didn't know if I'd be making it back into the business anytime soon. I don't want to say that the company my wife loves as much as she loves me had me burned out on it, but fuck, it did. A man can only put so much into his job before he doesn't want to do it anymore.

Of course, my body being kind of fucked didn't really help matters. I'm not as young as I once was and I'll be the first to admit that. This old body of mine has been through hell and back over the years, and I'm grateful it's not completely given out on me. In fact, I feel just about as good as new.

The past few weeks I've not been able to relax as much, because I've been preparing for the nWo's WWF debut. Honestly, it seems like the whole thing is going to be a bit... unusual, but fuck, who am I to say Vince is wrong? After all, he won the damn war, didn't he?

I guess I really don't even have to say that much about Vince, because Joli has been saying enough. Ever since she started working for the WWF several months ago, she's been on some sort of roller coaster with it. One day she'll be perfectly content with the job and the next she's ready to jump down the creative team's throat.

Joli's main problem with the WWF thus far has been the piss-poor storyline that they gave Dally to start with. In her defense, none of us were really that happy about it. It was fucking stupid.

How was anyone in the world supposed to believe that goddamn Dallas Page was trying to stalk The Undertaker's wife? That's dumb as shit. When you've got a bangin' bitch like Kimberly at home, you don't fuck with anyone else's girl. No offense to Sara, but she's no Kimberly.

That bullshit aside though, I honestly don't think Joli's had that big of an issue with the WWF. She seems to really be enjoying working with all of the new talent that's down there, and I know she really likes sharing her knowledge of the business. My gal's got such a damn good mind for what we do and she has so many stories to pass on.

Although she's settled into that role very well, I know it's been a big change for Joli. She's as used to being out on stage as I am; whether she was a valet, an announcer, or a manager, Joli's always been in front of the crowd. The WWF has no place for her on television, but she's killing it backstage.

There, Joli's been making some friends, too. She seems quite fond of gals like Trish and Lita, and I think she's taken quite a liking to Jazz. Socializing with her own gender has never been an easy task for Jolene, but I guess working directly with other women has been a blessing for her in that aspect.

The downside to it, though, is that I think being around so many young, attractive chicks has been bringing Joli down a bit over time. I'm not as young as I once was, and unfortunately, Joli realizes the same thing about herself. My wife is just as attractive at 35 as she was the first day I laid eyes on her, but I don't think she always feels like that.

I hate that I'm not there to comfort her when her insecurities get the better of her. All that I can do most of the time is just tell her how gorgeous she is and how much I fucking love her. Joli might not see it, but she's the most stunning woman on the planet, regardless of her age.

Thankfully though, Joli and I aren't going to be apart for too much longer.

In a couple of weeks, Scott, Terry, and I are coming back. On tonight's episode of RAW, Vince is going to announce that he's signed us to help take down the big boys in the company, 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin and The Rock. We're debuting at WWF's version of 'No Way Out,' and it's going to lead to Wrestlemania matches for us.
