I sat in my cell, cold, alone...I could've been at home right now, relaxing from touring for weeks, but no. I had to be selfish and burn up Jeff's house. Trust me, once was enough.
I thought back to the first big thing that happened in his second run with the company. It was just a year after he rejoined...
We were at WrestleMania 23. Jeff was in the MITB match and I was the referee. One of them anyway.
Skip to the middle of the match, where Matt was setting up a ladder, putting it across the guardrail and the ring. Jeff climbs up the wrong side of the ladder as Matt was setting Adam up on the layed out ladder.
My heart stops as Jeff jumps off the ladder onto Adam, snapping the ladder in half. He and Adam were laying unconscious. Me and another referee called down medical attention.
We got Jeff to the back and I tried to wake him up. When I got him up, I hugged him gently and kissed him with all the love and care in the world.
