This was quite the traveling weekend for me! And some people actually didn't believe me. Ha! Castagnoli international! Or Claudio International... What sounds better? Yes that was a question to you, dear reader.
So Thursday I flew from JFK International airport to Amsterdam. I though my flight was at 7pm, but it ended up being at 4.30. That kinda changed the day for me as I ended up having 3 hours less. So no tanning it was.
Still tanned, but not optimum tanned, I made my way to the Netherlands.On the flight I watched "Get Smart". Fun movie! From there I took my connection to Germany.
While I enjoyed checking out the advanced European cell phones at 6am at the Amsterdam airport I also took time for a nap. The great thing is that they had those sun chair like chairs that are super comfortable and you can basically lay in them.
Anyhow, I ended up spending the rest of Friday watching "Hostage" with Bruce Willis, which is a really good movie! I didn't think it would be any good, but I ended up liking it and it had some good twists.
Later that night I met up with some friends and had a great time catching up on stuff, especially funny European Indy Wrestlers. Marc Hammer, Thomas Blade I'm talking to you! I heard the former is a professional World of Warcraft player now days, so good for him!
While my friends decided to go see "Der Wendler" I decided I finally need some sleep. After a full night of sleep I enjoyed the great breakfast buffet, which I almost missed.
After catching up with some of my Swiss friends it was time for the afternoon show. Unfortunately I lost to Bad Bones and he's the new wXw Champion. But Steve Douglas got him after the match for me, so props to him for that!
Since that was the main event I just had enough time to shower, change and get over to the GSW show that was happening tonight. I was also happening that night as I kicked everybodys butt in the 4 way I was involved in. Unfortunately before mentioned Steve Douglas stole the victory, so I take my props back. No props for you!
After the "Obermacker" defended his GSW Title it was time for me to find my way back to the Amsterdam airport.
Because the USA is so strict with their security I had to go through another security check, inclusive baggage scan at the gate!
After I found out that I had a whole row of seats to myself I didn't mind the extra security anymore though and fell asleep.
Just in time I woke up to experience the landing in New York, where I was picked up and chauffeured to the CHIKARA show in Philadelphia! All that just to be betrayed by Larry Sweeney...
Some fans actually though it was an error that Mr. Meltzer had me listed on a show in Germany the day before. But no, Mr. Meltzer was right! I indeed was!
That's how I roll!
Now I'm kind of tired and ready for bed! I put some of my travel pictures up here, so just scroll down.
Also there will be a upcoming blog about why December is my favorite Month (My Birthday, Christmas, Snow and my first match) at a later point, but for now, check this out:

Oh, look! You've not really "arrived" in the blog world until you've had your first troll/spam comment!
It sounds as if you're racking up the frequent flier miles. The last time I was in JFK (going home to Scotland for Hogmanay 3 years ago), the food choices were abysmal.
1. "Castagnoli Internation". Sounds more official!
2. Cool blog. You should have kicked Steve Douglas' behind. (I don't know if the "blog administrator" would have deleted the word @$$)
