Crane: Ladies and gentlemen of the XWF universe, tonight I am proposing something that has NEVER been done in the history of professional wrestling. And I'm doing this because I feel it needs to be done. Astoundingly I won my match on Warfare last night but before that, I'm sure I'm not the only one that has noticed my performance slumping. I haven't been winning matches but more importantly I have not created the impact I wanted to make upon my return. I wanted to give you the "revolution" that CM Punk never delivered on. And lately, that fire has just been gone. I've basically just been spinning my wheels not going anywhere. That ends now. One way or another.

Starting immediately and open until midnight EST Tuesday, anyone on the active XWF roster, from any show, will have the opportunity to decide my fate. I went to the front office and expressed a desire to hang it up. However, to my surprise, they tried to talk me out of it. I told them I wasn't really feeling a part of this company and their counter-point was that I wasn't making enough of an effort to BE a part of the company. It's a fair point. They told me to think it over, I have, and it's this: The Doomsday Protocol that I came up with. The XWF website geeks have agreed to set up a thread on the message board where any and all members of the XWF roster are invited to come and vote on whether I should stay or I should go. In this vote, you can say as much or as little as you want. You can be as harsh or complimentary, as you wish. You can do it on the website, jump in the ring and voice your vote with the crowd, or you can come to me personally and tell me to my face. All I ask is a vote yay or nay on whether I should stay at XWF. And based SOLELY on this vote, I will make my decision.

XWF stars, I await your verdict.
