Former field hockey player (Te Golpear Con) Un Palo [Translates to: I hit you with a stick]
Who covered the cost of the medical bills?
Un Palo’s former employer at the Blue Cat Lounge
Who took her place after the injury?
Wynne D. Byrd, aka El Prodigio (Inciador Malvado del Fuego) [Translates to: The prodigy, evil fire-starter]
When and where did the fake Wynne incident occur?
July 31, 2020, from roughly 9:10 pm to 9:22, at the VFW Hall in Plato
What evidence shows that “Wynne” may not have been real?
They were wearing the alternate costume (blue and red with a fur boa instead of gold with a feather boa) and didn’t seem to know the script
What evidence may dispute my reliability in claiming “Wynne” was a fake?
I was suffering from a head injury at the time after falling unconscious from a botched Hemlock Hold that night, as evidenced by my persistent nausea and dizziness
What was Sylvia’s response?
She was deadpan, saying “What are you talking about? Of course that was Wynne Byrd!”
What did she do a week later?
Announced her retirement from the league, accepting cash from Wynne for a stake in the company.
What was Wynne’s plan after Sylvia retired?
To retire from wrestling as well, focusing on expanding the financial side of the business
How did I respond?
I felt betrayed by the friend I had founded the SMLLL with selling out and quit on the spot and haven’t wrestled since
What legal agreement did I forget about when I quit?
Sylvia had me in a non-compete agreement from when the league started that made me unable to start a new league, which Wynne sued me to enforce
Was that my first bout of legal trouble?
No, I was arrested quite a few times around when I graduated college. One such incident involve my camper burning down and almost starting a fire in the Mark Twain forest. Then of course El Palo was injured, I didn’t know I was legally required to compensate injuries until after it happened and we didn’t have the money. Even still, I never spent a night in jail. My lawyers now are saying that Wynne’s non-competition claim probably won’t hold up either.
When did I realize that this all was important?
When I was at a New Year’s Eve party in 2021 and met Martie Keyes. He got drunk and told me about his firing from the arson investigation. I didn’t let on that I knew anything so as to not expose my persona at the party, but later contacted him on Spacebook (ex. 9) and through him was put in touch with the prosecuting attorneys.
