Everyone in life needs to learn a lesson at one time or another. You need to learn from your mistakes, because those mistakes are going to help you reach life's purpose.

I was born to be a wrestler, I know that, my family knows that. I have been fighting my whole life to get to the big time. I have worked my ass off, just to have a slight hope, a chance, to get to the point where every little kid wants to grow up to become a wrestler because of you. To help, any life in any way possible. The big time is the place where everyone wants to be.

But who knew that "The Big Time" wasn't all that great. That being the best has no purpose. That you could fight and claw your way to the top, only to have a rock fall loose and fall all the way back down. That if you made the tiniest slip up, you could lose it all in a snap. After I lost a couple matches, I stopped showing up. Frankly I thought I didn't deserve to be among the greats in the XWF. I wanted to be a great, but look at where all the greats are now. I haven't seen any KnightMask and Crimson Cobra. The man who ended up screwing Paul Heyman and taking the title, CM Punk. Even the guy he stole it from "The Senator". A former friend Jason E. Smith, who had tons of potential isn't here. Even the two men I hated to the core, Big Bad Leroy and Eric Rex aren't here. Frankly, I'm glad Eric's a dead because of the things he has had done to people, including me. What a great he was, "The Great Eric Rex who took KnightMask's daughter from a man who couldn't talk to defend himself." What a great, huh? The kind of great that, six months later, barely anyone remembers who he was.

I hated Eric to the core, but The Mercenary taught me something. He always tried to slither his way out of matches. But, not because he was a coward, because he was a coward. He was to smart and strong to not use his brains for something. He still fought every night.

I am tired of waiting for my opportunity. I am going to knock it out of whoever gets in my way, just like I should. I shouldn't stand and say things are bad and do nothing about it. I made one promise to my dad before he died a couple months ago. I will not suck to fans, I will not be a "nice guy", I will, however, tell the truth.

I'll start right now, I will make fools out of my opponents on Wednesday. I will make an impression, more than a great ever could. I will work my way into beating the best. And it's for no one but me.
