Re: EAW Promoz! October 4th 2017, 4:49 am by **Jacob Senn**

Disrespect hasn’t been a thing that people have been hesitant to strike me with, almost welcome to cast the first stone towards me. However, the shower of glass shards that fall like rain onto you, they slice into your skin while stand inside of your glass house.

Hurricane Hawk, do you actually hear the words that you speak or are you just a man that takes pleasure in listening to the sound of his own voice? The way you enunciate your words, the way that you can bolster that bravado of yours while you walk into the precipice of failure that you’ve grown an attachment towards, it’s all music to your ears much like our current President does in his own. Without any logic or reason being spoken by you, you’re still able to reach a captivated audience to fascinate with your words. To be honest with you, I have to say that I might be one of those that has been left awestruck with what I’ve heard come from your voice because honestly, it’s some of the most moronic and idiotic remarks that I’ve heard from an elitist in my entire career. In fact, I think that you have El Landerson on the ropes for who could hold that honor in my eyes, but that’s something for another day. With no hesitation in your mind, you jumped at the opportunity to tell me what I’ve done that has mattered around here? What have I done that has mattered? DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT RELEVANCE IS, HAWK? The fact that in the five-year span of missed opportunities and disappointment that you’ve been stuck in like a ship that has been landed in a maelstrom, I have been able to create a legacy for myself that has allowed me to be inducted into the EAW Hall of Fame. I was inducted this year as a headline, before that I was the EAW World Heavyweight Champion, and the year before that was when I saved this brand that you take for granted from extinction and oblivion at the hands of Zack Crash! THAT’S WHAT I’VE DONE WHILE YOU SAT AROUND AND COMPLAINED THAT NO ONE NOTICED YOU! Oh, people have noticed you since you lost the EAW World Heavyweight Championship back in 2012, but we noticed how DREADFUL you’ve been during your constant returns to get a nice ovation of the crowd to still see you around! In all things considered since with each return that you’ve done during this five-year drought of success for you, it has been more of a detriment to this company than an actual improvement for talent or the brand. I mean, let’s be honest, are you not surprised that a company is willing to PAY YOU to be in that ring and perform for them? At this rate to where things are going, you should be paying THEM to get in that ring like any fan that sits in the audience would desire! Relevancy has passed you by just like the evolution of a business that has forgotten the days when Hurricane Hawk meant something to this business! New faces have risen above you, exceeded the potential that was met with you and crafted their own legacies that have been immortalized, all while you meandered in obscurity to where you constantly were forced to watch on the sidelines. Do you honestly believe that Dynasty will serve as a moment of change towards that path that you have been walking on? Do you actually think that you will find way to climb out of the pit of insignificance because you believe to have found the chink in the armor of Jacob Senn that you can take advantage of? It’s adorable, but a fantasy that you tell yourself so that you have a reason to walk into this business, a reason to look into the mirror when you’re forced to stare into your own eyes, and look without disgust at the man that you have became. A shell of what used to be, a reminder of what a relic is in this business, and what everyone should aspire NOT to be in this business! The only world that you hold on your shoulder is a world of lies that you tell yourself when you roll out of bed in the morning and when that happens on the morning that you appear on Dynasty, I’ll be the reality check that night to send you back to sleep to live in that dreamland of yours.

For you have this idea, this fabrication that you’ve created for yourself, that I won’t be able to fight you because of the distraction that Mr. DEDEDE will provide towards me. Something that you might want to look into before you try and discredit me, it is to actually listen to the words that come out of my mouth, because you talk about this preventing me from being able to be victorious. You proclaim to the world that my intention isn’t to win the EAW Answers World Championship, that the title is in the back of my mind as my focus has been placed onto Mr. DEDEDE and to a person that only decides to stake their opinion on these past few months, that perception would have been correct. However, I told you and the world that I have made notice of what I need to gain the attention of the man that humiliated me at the biggest event that has ever been produced by EAW… the EAW Answers World Championship. The world saw that Mr. DEDEDE only fought with me when a prize was defended, when gold was at stake for him to claim and keep in his possession, and the gold has been lost in the shuffle through this obsession of mine. With this opportunity that has presented itself to me, I could present the challenge towards Mr. DEDEDE to where our rematch could eclipse the match that happened at Pain for Pride X! A match where I can FINALLY redeem myself from this embarrassment and establish that my legacy remains as the premier talent in this entire company! A rematch between the two greatest names of their generation competing for the EAW Answers World Championship! Now to correct you from the mistake that you made, if you don’t think that I’m not coming to this match with you or this Elimination Chamber Match with the simple desire of not walking out as the EAW Answers World Champion, then you’ve already lost this match before you even stepped into the ring! I told the world that I will burn down anything that has a sense of value to Mr. DEDEDE and don’t you think that the EAW Answers World Championship means something to him? Especially as the chairman of this company? Do you not think that he would do whatever it takes to secure the EAW Answers World Champion to where he wouldn’t take a step away from this place with HIS championship to another business that might want it? Do you think that Mr. DEDEDE has actually taken a step away from the lust of championship gold when an opportunity presents itself to seize it for himself? Mr. DEDEDE cares about himself and whatever is able to rise his stock and revenue, it will be what he wants and I know that with the EAW Answers World Championship on my shoulder, I will have all the leverage in the world to FORCE him to give me what I desire more than anything in this world. I have stated that anyone that stands in my path of redemption, in my way of delivering punishment onto the one that has disrespected me in a way that can’t be left without consequence, they would share in the demise that will befall him in the near future. Nico Borg might want to believe that his crimes will go unanswered for, but there will be a night where he meets an end by my hand. Nasir Moore might have forgotten what he did to me at Territorial Invasion and has it as an afterthought in his mind, but I do not forgive or forget. Now there is you, Hurricane Hawk. A once proud elitist that stood with some of the greatest men to ever grace an EAW ring, had everything in his hand to where he finally possessed the golden trophy that he sought, only to have it turned to ash in front of his eyes to where he’s blinded by the lust he carries for it. The lust that has driven him into a state where the one thing that he hopes to become once again is destined to never be. Hurricane Hawk, I told you that history is bound to repeat itself and usually, it’s the history we never hope to have happen. On Dynasty, you will remain famished at the lust for championship gold destroys your body to be left into a state where you turn skeletal as you finally realize the hypocritical mistake you made.

For Hurricane Hawk will not feast, but he will starve by my hand and it alone.

Re: EAW Promoz! October 4th 2017, 3:07 am by **April Song**

(In footage from last week’s Empire, April is shown heading back to her locker room, a puzzled look tinged with disappointment as she settles down into an empty chair. While not injured or hurt, she just sits there for a few minutes in total disbelief before her phone rings. She digs through her bag to find it, but doesn’t bother speaking once she’s answered it.)

??????: Lo how the mighty have fallen. In just a few weeks you’ve gone from rising contender to champion to a joke of a former champion, deceived by a cheap trick. To say that I am disappointed would be a vast understatement. You are supposed to be someone who I can count on to achieve the goals and vision that I have laid out. Losing the Specialists Championship is disappointing but in the end forgivable. Frankly you were slightly ahead of schedule. But to follow this up with even more defeats is unacceptable. You even have people referring to you as a Disney princess now? You listen to me and you listen well: You do NOT have the mentality and identity that you need to have to achieve what I need you to achieve. Was it magic, I don’t know. But if it was, you damn well better find it fast because if I wind up out of a job because of you, YOU will wind up back in Colorado Springs shoveling snow and picking up missionary work in Afghanistan. Got it? Good.

(Annoyed, April turns off her phone, tossing it back into her bag, thinking on what was just said to her.)

The month of September couldn’t have ended fast enough. You have this tournament take place that I wanted to, but was forced to do commentary instead. I lose my championship to a person who I had been able to beat three consecutive times before that. To top it off, I’m duped by Brody in our match long enough to be distracted and eat a Detonation Kick. My month was not something to set to Earth Wind and Fire’s “September”, not by a damn sight. Mercifully enough, I can put September behind me as October arrives and brings with it a “unique opportunity”. What that opportunity is, I have no idea. If it’s an opportunity to fight for the Women’s World Championship or Specialists Championship, that would be great. I need to get that horrible feeling out of my mind of having lost to Consuela and Brody back to back weeks.

Who am I going to have to go through to get said opportunity? Three opponents: Sydney St. Clair, Revy and Megan Raine. Two of them I know, one of them not so much. For now, I’m going to talk about the two that I do know.

Revy…we’ve met before, haven’t we? While Megan and I disagree on a lot of things, more on that later, one thing we do agree on is that you seem a little insecure. You are too damn talented to worry about what a game rating says about you. While I have been able to best you, I have been in the ring with you and know exactly what you bring to the table. While we have some disagreements, and come from different branches of the military, we came into this line of work in very similar fashions. As someone who has been in the Army, you should be further along in your progression than you are. You’re tough, not stupid, and have skill. What is missing then? Well, this is just a theory on my end but I think that you’re focusing a little too much on challenges and how much pain you can inflict on others. You have all the tools, but you let your mentality slip into “I’m going to try but I’m set up to fail” mode. You talk about all the badassery you’re going to commit but you still have all these issues. It’s like you hedge your bet, knowing that the odds are against you. As someone who has been where you are and has gone above and beyond what they thought they would in this sport, you cannot be afraid of failure. More importantly, you can’t be afraid of success either. At this moment, I think you are what they call a “glass cannon”: you hit hard, both with your words and wrestling style, but you can’t take it.

I’m the cliché one? Really, how cliché am I compared to the edgy, self-doubting loner who talks about enjoying violence and beating up people and how the world is against her? You are the troubled teenager who never grew up who happened to be smart and tough enough to become a US Army Sniper. You are always in somebody’s business too! Who my employer is and why I’m not here is not something that you need to concern yourself with. The only thing that you need to concern yourself with is preparing to face me in the ring. I didn’t get to the Specialists Championship by just doing someone else’s bidding. I worked hard for MYSELF. All that other stuff about pacifying Empire or achieving this vague, elaborate master plan is on the perimeter compared to my personal development as a wrestler. I came here, as I have said before, as just a side job. It’s an obsession now, fellow soldier, and I’m not going to allow someone to stand in my way for it, even if they are hungry like you are. I’m STARVING right now. My spirit is starving for something to uplift it, something to soothe the scalding pain of having lost something that I worked so very hard to gain. Months of work and effort lost in three seconds of mental lapse. You will not be able to hide from me, Revy. You won’t be treated as an afterthought. But you will lose, and your ascension to the top of Empire is going to have to wait just a little longer. You may not like that, but that is the reality that you’re going to have to face. Sorry.

Megan, I hope you have cleaned up the ejaculate that was splashed on your face by a certain corrupt, biased authority figure here in EAW in a fast-enough fashion that you see this. It has been a long time since we have seen each other and oddly enough, the only time that we ever were in the ring together, we were partners. Of course, I did all the work and got the win for our team, but that’s a debate for another time. I understand how things have been for you. Depression sucks. Take it from somebody that’s bulldozed through bottles of Sapporo and Kaoliang to mask it, it’s an unconquerable enemy. When things transpired the way they did with You, Madison and Keelan, I didn’t really say that much about it but I was uniquely disgusted. Not by you, of course, but by their actions. In some ways, I’m still not fond of Madison as a person because of that but “time heals all wounds” as the adage goes, right? I understand completely doing what you did for your own personal benefit, taking time off and reinventing yourself a bit in both appearance and wrestling style. While I was not in a mood to be congratulatory to anyone after Manifest Destiny, I was impressed with you and Sidney in your victory. It was a feel-good moment to many, seeing you back and at it after a long hiatus, back in the game, looking good in it as well.

However, your actions of late have not been worthy of lauding. I’m not talking about your shenanigans with the Chairman, that’s an issue that while I look down upon professionally seeing his stature in EAW, it’s something else that you did that has me upset. Yes, unlike Revy, I do pay attention to things that go around me well. What I want to know is why you did what you did with Sidney. The girl, who I don’t know personally but have seen around, did nothing to you yet you attacked her for no damn good reason. You are already trying to play up some Freudian excuse about how people were mean to you and how she should expect it. I call bullshit. Just because people were mean and underhanded to you doesn’t give you the right to do disgusting, underhanded things to others who had nothing to do with it! Having been in the position that Sidney finds herself in now, you should have been a friend to her. The fact that you even mention her depression issues and try to infer that Empire will break her spirit is deeply disturbing and frankly ironic as hell considering how you left the company temporarily. You’re right that these last few weeks have frustrated me to my core. I’m not used to losing and losing streaks are unacceptable. You’re also right, I must concede, that I have a problem with emotion in my matches. Sometimes I show too little, sometimes I show way too damn much. I’m used to being in pressure situations and damn it I’m used to failing in them. But that doesn’t change the fact that I know what it’s like to be the last woman standing more than it’s like to lose. I’m not some flash in the pan that can be easily discarded. For months people were busy writing my epitaph, trying to push me out of a sport that I have come to love. I’m older than most of you girls, I think, but I’m not a seasoned veteran yet. These ideas in the ring, they’re just coming. I train rigorously enough that I’m pretty sure I can do this until I’m in my 40s if I so choose. So…all of that to say that while I’m a Veteran, I’m not necessarily a WRESTLING Veteran just yet. I’m no different than you when you came in or Revy or Sydney. The thing that sets me apart from you and Revy is my commitment to bettering myself. One of you hides behind the past, the other hides behind the mentality of being a soldier.

That’s right.

The two of you, as talented and as capable as you are, let other people dictate how your career is perceived or what path you take. You let the waves of the ocean toss you around instead of making waves of your own. When Empire tried to push me around, I pushed back. Hard. And won a shiny belt in the process. While I’m no longer Specialists Champion, I carry myself with the mentality of a champion. That’s how you should behave. Not as some Mean Girls cast extra or a wannabe psychopath. My climb to the top has met some new resistance, but the hardest part of any mountain to climb is when you’re close to the summit. I know I’m close now and all I need is that final breakthrough, that final burst of energy, that perseverance to find my way to the top.

Sydney, of all the opponents I have this week, I know you the least personally. That said, I’ve heard about your story and your commitment to wrestling and I admire it. I have seen you perform and you have a potential that outstrips everyone that I have faced so far in my career except Aria Jaxon and Brody Sparks. I think that highly of you as an athlete. I will be completely blunt with you: I don’t know if you’re ready for a match like this yet. Not in terms of your skill, but just in mentality. Megan, for all the shit that comes from her mouth, does have a point: Empire is not a place that welcomes newcomers. It’s not a place that you can just arrive and force yourself into a championship scene. Many have come here claiming to be the next big thing or a future champion and most are gone within a month, never to be heard from again. Will you be like that? I doubt it. But one thing I’m sure of is that if you work hard, opportunities will come. I’m proof of that myself. I didn’t have the training that you do or the long love of wrestling, but I worked hard and pushed myself as far as I could and managed to scrape a career together for myself. In time, you will get there too. Notice that I said, “in time” …. not yet. Nothing personal against you or the other two competitors, but this will be my opportunity to claim. I have all the battle scars and experience of elite-level competition here on Empire, something that none of you have. And, even though I have my history of not winning things, I have competed in so many big matches that this honestly just seems like a frolic through the park instead of an intense, vicious four-way battle. I’m prepared and aware, but I’m not uptight. I know that there is another gear that I can get to…the question I put to you Sydney, with all respect, is can you get there so soon after your arrival to EAW? Do you really know what it means to be battle tested? My assessment says no. Prove me wrong.

A promising future.
A decadent past.
Arrogance and audacity in the present.

Three opponents, three careers that I see in various stages of development, snapshots of an ever-changing Empire landscape. All of you are capable, but only one of us is proven. All of you are tough, but only one of us submits more people in EAW than anyone else. All of you want this opportunity, but only one of us is going to get it. That will be me. If I must strategize or fight like a wild woman making her last stand, I will win this match and move on to whatever that “opportunity” offers. I have said this before and I will say it once again: April Song is not going anywhere. No opponent, no emotion, no circumstance is changing that any time soon. If iron does indeed sharpen iron, my sword has been forged to be nearly indestructible with the level of competition that I have faced on Empire.

Thursday night, I’m going to swing it, Storm Warnings, Snipers and Rookies be damned.

That’s all.

Re: EAW Promoz! October 4th 2017, 2:20 am by **DampshawIII**

I'm sick and tired of this. No, no. I am over all of this.

Please, sir. Crichton is still convalescing upstairs. He needs peace and quiet.

Peace and quiet? Peace and quiet!?!

Without hesitation, I grab the worker and throw him into the wall. I see a chair so pick it up and lunge it at the worker's unconscious body. He doesn't even flinch or react, he is just completely out cold. Pathetic.

How much longer do I have to scream at the mountain tops before they listen? I can't take this much more. I feel like I'm losing my mind. Crichton is upstairs whining, still crying about his body hurting. I understand the man is 80 years old but Jesus Christ, get over it already. I have to deal with that on top of the fact that I've been on a downward spiral since coming to Dynasty. I dominated on NEO but I can't seem to find my stride here. I cannot just lay down and die. What sort of message would I be sending to the Queen? She's depending on me to bring honour and dignity for Mother England.

God help me. How many times do I have to keep going around in circles and repeat the same things over and over? Freak after freak after freak they throw into the ring with me. Do I look like I enjoy this? Do they just see me and hear my accent and think "Reginald must feel at home with all of these crazy characters?" Masks, face paint, religious fanatics. Bring them all to me because apparently Reginald Dampshaw III is EAW's resident circus barker.

I can hear Crichton yelling weakly from upstairs. I can't stand his incessant prattling. My breath gets shorter and sharper. I feel like I am on the brink.

After I lost to Target Smiles, I was sure I'd have some competition that would take this profession seriously. But, no. Instead I get some drug-addled hippie named "The Mexican Samurai". Really? This man is my next opponent? This psychedelic ponce who spouts on about some golden...jackal? Antelope? Donkey? I don't even understand anything he says. All I know is he didn't win the Glass Gauntlet match, like me. Unlike me, however, he didn't even stand a chance. He doesn't stand a chance with me on Dynasty either. I mean, honestly, the man's pupils were the size of golf balls in the Glass Gauntlet match. He was on a completely different astral plane. I don't even think he knew where he was and I doubt he will Friday night either. That is a dangerous man, and not dangerous in the "tough son of a bitch" way, but dangerous to my health and his own. I shouldn't be made to step into the ring with the absolute madman.

I simply cannot lose this match. I just cannot. I don't think my psyche can take it. Dealing with Crichton and dealing with the embarrassment of these constant losses is too much to bear. I can't sleep, I can't eat. This consumes me.

I refuse to be made into a joke. I will not allow my career here be remembered solely on my success in NEO of all things. I am The Duke of Gold! And did my feet in ancient time, walk upon England's mountains green. My blood has soaked England's green and pleasant land. Bring me my bow of burning gold! Bring me my arrows of desire! I refuse to walk out of Dynasty Friday night without Mexican Samurai being a cripple. And may our Lord and Queen have mercy upon my soul.

BRODY SPARKS VERSUS MADISON KALINE

‟Oh my goodness! I am speechless! I am so privileged! Edgelord Madison Kaline has decided to grace me with her non-threatening presence! Truly iconic babe. There are so many examples of your hypocrisy. So many examples of why exactly you never deserved to win let alone participate in the Empress Of Elite. You are the very opposite of what a woman in this company should be, and this is coming from me, Madison. Nevertheless, yet again I get to do exactly what brings a smile to my beautiful face. I love getting the opportunity to exploit and expose a fraudulent, hypocritical, shortsighted bitch. Just when you think Madison Kaline couldn’t be any more deplorable, she gives you a plethora of reasons to contribute to that assessment. I would join you in this split personality, great value, two-face comic book thing you got going, but that’s not me. I’m not just smoke and mirrors. I am the real deal. I am Brody Sparks. The question though is, where exactly do I start?”

‟Honestly Madison, no one is trying to play psychiatrist for you. I don’t think a professional could give you the proper diagnosis, but if I had to take a guess, I’d say if anything has been painted, it’s you in a corner, babe. I mean I’ve pushed and proven your points to be so irrelevant and wrong that suddenly you decided to bring out this fake little alter ego of yours. This act you put on, to try and throw off someone who’s been dishing out things that you just can’t take. I get it, not all of us can be quick on our feet. Some of us have to create these false psycho breakdowns in order to try and prove how threatening and dangerous they are. That doesn’t work on me Madison. It’s the same thing our good ol’ general manager tried with me, but just like how it was with her, I can see through the facade you’re portraying. I will give you credit for trying, I appreciate the fact that you’re trying to show out, all just for little ol’ me, but Alexis is different than me, she underneath it all, she can forgive, so perhaps maybe you don’t hate her now because she was a gracious loser for you. She may have forgiven and forgotten, but I haven’t. I have it in me to forgive, but forget? No. I mean honestly Madison, I remember a time before you officially left us, when the pressure got way too much for you to handle. You weren’t the star, you weren’t the apple of everyone’s eye, and then what did you do? You decided to run. You didn’t just abandon us, you abandoned the company. We tried everything to bring you back, and when the attention came flooding to you, then you decided you were ready to come back. Like a child, you begged for attention, you couldn’t receive it, so you threw a temper tantrum, ran away and when you got some attention, you decided it was time to come back. You were better off staying away Madison because I would hate to see what would happen to you when the attention and the spotlight aren't on you anymore, again. Here is the difference between you, and Alexis. If Alexis felt any way about how she was treated by me, she unlike you would be woman enough to tell me to the face. She had no issue doing that with Stephanie, I never treated Alexis or you in any way other than like what I thought we were. Sisters. However, Alexis wasn’t the one with underlying jealous, and self-hatred that she blamed me for all of her shortcomings with. Alexis unlike you, never took credit for anything I have accomplished, but you? You love doing that, maybe because you wish you were me? Maybe because you knew I was better than you? Whatever the case may be, Alexis respects me. I respect her, you, you spat on our family when you walked out, not once, but twice. I want to know whose eyes you’ve been seeing out of your entire time with The Coven. I mean for god sakes Madison, you wouldn’t even allow Alexis to speak for herself, let alone me. I had to snatch the mic from you in order to say anything, you didn’t like someone questioning your authority, that’s why you hate me. If I had let you speak for me, who’s to know where I’d be right now. Alexis may have liked you or allowed you speaking for her, and treating us like you had, but I sure as hell didn’t. As soon as I established a voice for myself, you became the Jan to my Marsha and would stomp your feet with jealousy. I could hear it now, “BRODY! BRODY! BRODY! WHY DOES EVERYTHING HAVE TO BE ABOUT HER!?” Probably because I was and am still better than you, but sure Jan, I mean, Madison.”

‟Ah, the OMERTA mention. I was waiting for that, love. Yes Madison, OMERTA did not last long. Would you like a golden star for figuring that out? It’s no secret, but I left that train wreck before it went crashing and becoming nothing. I was smart enough to leave, it’s a choice I boast about. I take pride in that. “Code Of Bitchiness” here we go with the childish insults. Oh my Madison making fun of my old nickname, but trust me two can play this childish banter. Allow me to lower myself, and stoop to your level. You know Madison I find it just about charming how you call yourself the Mistress of death. I mean when you say that do you mean that you're close with death? Is it that you're sleeping with death? Is death your best friend? Because if that's how you mean it then you are absolutely spot-on because when you step between those ropes and you enter the ring with me you're going to be staring into the eyes of the woman who’s going to bring death and despair to your career. You definitely are very close to death. That has got to be why you call yourself the “Mistress Of Death” because the only things you've killed around here is... well is nothing. Wait, wait, I'm incorrect, the one thing that you have successfully killed during your whole entire career in this company is the relationship between Keelan and Megan, so I give you your credit where it's due. Madison, I am not Cailin Dillon babe, and it’s so amusing you say that, from what I can see, it’s ok when Madison brags about everything she’s done thus far, it’s all okay when Madison talks about how she played a pivotal role in this division, but when I boast and I speak facts, suddenly, I am wrong for that? Do you see why I call you a hypocrite? Do you see why when I look at you, all I see is a woman who isn’t half of who she used to be? Can you see clearly now Madison? Wow, you burned Tarah! Oh, my god, Madison let’s just induct you into the Hall Of Fame right now! I’m not going to sit here and compare these extreme moments. It’s not like I never electrocuted Tarah before, or busted her open. Nonetheless, I am so happy that you consider one act of violence to be a highlight of your career, further proving my point of how you could never touch me in that ring. The woman who competed for the Specialist Title, and wanted to break her neck, and would even steal the opportunity of winning that title from someone she, quote, unquote “loves” is now discrediting that very same title, and diminishing all of its’ prestige and meaning? Is that what you’re going to say about the crown you’re wearing? When someone makes history with it, that it doesn’t matter? That it means nothing, that it was made for “losers”. Hilarious considering you wanted to be one of those losers holding it. I don’t look at that title as something given to lower-tier women, or losers. That title is just as prestige and important as the Vixens title. I made that title mean something when it was under my care. Now women aspire to break a record I made. I wouldn’t exactly be so proud of being in a tournament and taking three tries to actually win it, but it’s your world Madison, we’re just living in it apparently.”

‟Do you hear a broken record? Or is it just me? Yet again, you’re trying to take credit for my career and all of my accomplishments. When I give birth someday, are you going to take credit for that too? As I said before Madison, I guess your split personality needs to be told this too, you were not, nor were you ever responsible for me joining The Sanatorium, or me capturing the Specialist Title. Now do the both of you comprehend that? I was asked to join Madison, I never begged. It was an offer I simply accepted. It’s that simple, the way you are trying to make it seem like you came knocking on my door like Eclipse and Alexis had, and offered me said opportunity, it’s baffling. I would believe you if I didn’t know the truth, but that’s just it. I know the truth. Alexis knows the truth, Eclipse knows the truth. All you know is what your mind has created to tell you. What legacy did you create? You and I are enemies. Former sisters, but you and I are nothing alike. Darling, there was a point in time where I held gold before Maero, before Eclipse, and before Amadeus. So please babe, stop embarrassing yourself. Yes, Madison, you did help me retain my title, but you never helped me capture it. I don’t have any grievances in admitting that I retained my title at any costs. Be it alone, or be with the help of my sisters. Keeping my title, meant keeping my title. No matter what the costs and I would do it all over again the same exact way, with a smile on my face. Does it bother you that I don’t care? You seem so angry. It’s pretty funny, babe. Oh please, Madison, whose history book are you reading? Everyone knows Keelan and you started fucking way before Keelan and Megan had broken up. You are the very reason as to why they did. After I aired your dirty, stinky laundry, it was Keelan who went on the feed and made a comment about you, but of course, the coward he is he “didn’t mean to tweet it”. So please Madison, if you’re going to make a point, at least make it factual and not something you wished actually happened. Yes, I was gone. I was forced out of action Madison, the whole world knows that. Do you think that telling me that no one cared is going to hurt me? Going to agitate me? I never have nor do I give a single shit what people think of me Madison. Unlike you, it was announced when I was out of action, but no one even bothered to mention you when you ran away like a scared little coward. So what does that tell you? I should just retire because I’m not on Heart Break Gal’s level. I should just hang myself because Madison Kaline doesn’t even think I'm Azumi Goto’s level. Oh my god, I am going to need years of therapy for that one-NOT! Facing you isn’t really an elevated level anyway, so really babe, I don’t know what you’re trying to prove here. Call it riding coattails, but I’d ride anything to make sure that I am the star. When will people realize that? None of what you’re saying hurts me. None of it makes me feel embarrassed like I have embarrassed you judging by the psycho personality you’ve brought out. Brody Sparks cares about Brody Sparks. Isn’t it obvious by now? If it benefits me, then it works for me. It’s as easy as that. Let me get this straight. You don’t care if I respect you, but yet you want to beat respect into me? I mean what happened, I thought you were happy I interrupted your little coronation. Are you upset now because you’ve realized you’re not facing the same woman you first shook hands with in October of twenty-sixteen? Is it now dawning on you that I’m not the same person I was a year ago, compared to today? Are you just now realizing that Brody Sparks just might have your number? You’re a day late, and a dollar short, babe. Maybe you can see through your hypocrisy for once and accept that.”

Empire Promo #2

"When a flower doesn't bloom you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower"

- Alexander den Heijer

Well it looks as if we have another psychiatrist here, someone who thinks they know what is going inside my head. Well Brody even I don't even know what is going inside my head let alone you. But one thing is for sure, you sure as shit don't know anything about me. You paint me out to be the villain in this story. First of all Brody, the only women that I didn't like in The Sanatorium was you. So don't even say, don't even think that I didn't love Alexis, because I fucking love Alexis to the very day I die, and I still do love Alexis, me and her just grew apart. Our differences were too much to handle, but obviously you weren't watching the finals of the Empress of Elite, the show of respect between the two of us after the match just shows you the love is mutual. I just didn't like you Brody and I tried my hardest to be your friend. I tried my hardest to be a sister to you, I really did, but your personality is just so vomit I just couldn't, you really want to say I treated you as nothing. Pfft bitch please that is the complete opposite, you walked into The Sanatorium as if you were hot shit. Your ego was out of control, and you treated Alexis and I as a fucking underlings. How fucking dare you Brody belittle my career the way you did. I have done way more than you so don't even go there with that bullshit. (Madison pauses and begins to talk again) Oh I am so sorry how can I disrespect the great Brody Sparks right? The former Specialist Champion, because you know losers like Haruna haven't won that title either. Oh wait how can I forget you were in that amazing biker group or whatever the hell you idiots were trying to be, what was the name of it again (Madison snaps her fingers trying to remember) Oh yeah Omerta right!? What a treat that was, luckily they weren't around too long you could have blinked and missed it, Everyone had a title in the group, I think your title was Code of Bitchiness. I mean I am so sorry Brody, I don't know how I could have possibly disrespected the great career of Brody Sparks like that. It will never happen again champ. I lost my head for a second Brody, but I forgot I was talking to the woman who revolutionized women's wrestling, I am talking to the future hall of famer herself Brody Sparks! (Madison rolls her eyes) Everyone thinks they are a future hall of famer in this company. Everyone thinks their shit doesn't stink and everyone thinks they have been in historic moments that is really only historic to themselves when you really think about it. It doesn't matter if that person has been here six months or four years. There isn't a person in EAW who doesn't have that mindset. Cailin Dillon thought she was a no doubt hall of famer too, and look where she is now. Only the strong survive in this company. Only the people who have the longevity make the hall of fame. This is so typical of someone to take shots at me. Do you realize Brody in a few weeks I will have been here for three damn years. Three long years of blood sweat and tears. I have faced the very best and I have defeated the very best. You want to talk about memorable and historic moments? Let's compare our moments shall we? Your biggest moment to date is whipping out a barbed wire dildo sure that got a few laughs but at the end of the day people look back at that and shake their head in disgust, and mine biggest moment, well that was the very night I joined The Sanatorium the very group I single handedly built up with my own two hands, and the very group you are currently disgracing as we speak. I faced Tarah Nova a Hall of fame superstar, in a death match, and I defeated her, by hitting her with a baseball bat that was on fire. I gave the poor girl second degree burns on her body, now that is making an impact. Another moment you had was winning the Specialist Championship, oh and you are the longest reigning champion in history too! To that I say big fucking deal, I mean there has been what? seven champions total in it's history, its meaningless Brody, very meaningless, you see I have won the Vixens Championship, a championship with more prestige than that little title that was created for losers like you to win, not only that but I have been in the Empress of Elite tournament finals every year of its existence. I put on a classic against Aria Jaxon in the first year, you want to talk about making moments. I have done that and then some.

So yeah compared to me you are a waste of skin. You are a waste of a roster spot. You aren't shit, and you wouldn't be shit without me paving your way through your stupid little career. Oh it must be so easy for you to act all noble, because Omerta was a flop and there was nothing you could do to have saved it. Oh but let's not forget now you are apart of one of the greatest groups in EAW, I mean it has to be pretty easy jumping into a group that has already been established huh? And then claim you have done so much for that said group. When all you have done is swoop in and claim my legacy that I created and make it as your own. You're welcome Brody because without me, you wouldn't have held the Specialist Championship for all those record breaking days nope not without me bailing your ass out match after match. Without me you wouldn't be in a group that is the focal point of a whole damn TV Show on EAW. Just think all that TV time, all that time people can see you, all that time you can get your dopey little name out there. You're welcome Brody you ungrateful bitch. Yeah I am so blinded my own ego, that only I can see the success that I have accomplished. You are totally right, I am a worthless sack of shit. I stole Megan Raine's boyfriend after all right? What a lousy human being I am. I broke up a couple that was a few weeks into breaking up. I have never been in classic matches, only you have Brody, in fact EAW should just get rid of every member in the Hall of Fame, and just place you in it, considering you are the only one to have ever had great moments. I mean we can all shove dildo's up our ass and get all giddy about that. Oh my god Brody you are the reason to breathe air, just so we can all watch you do what you do best. I mean let's talk real for a second here, you were gone for the past two months with your little owie that you had suffered. Not only did nobody care that you weren't on their TV Screens every week, nobody even knew you were gone. That is how little people care about you, you aren’t HBG level honey sorry to break it to you, you aren’t even Azumi Goto level. You are nothing, you ride the coattails of the people around you that is how and that is why you are on an elevated level facing people such as me. I seriously cannot wait to face you on Empire this week, I haven't been this excited for a singles match with nothing on the line in a very long time. I mean I really can’t wait because I am going to shatter your fucking face all over the ring. You say you don’t respect me, not that I care about gaining your respect or anything, but I guarantee you that I am going to beat the respect into you. Three years Brody, like I said I have been in EAW for three years and that isn't by mistake, there is a reason for that as well, because I am far better than you or anyone else gives me credit for, just think about it for a second, there aren’t many women in this industry who last that long, the HBG’s and Cameron Ella Ava’s of this company are few and far between for a reason, and I am well on my way to cementing my legacy as one of the greatest women's wrestlers to step foot in this ring. You will rue the day that you interrupted my celebration, you poked the sleeping giant that stands before you. Are you a fool? Are you that desperate for the attention that you would rather get that pretty face of yours beaten up, then to actually earn the attention on your own merit? The time has come Brody ,for you to either put up or shut up and for the first time in your life, you are going to shut up.

Re: EAW Promoz! October 3rd 2017, 9:01 pm by **Yasmin Hyland**

(The camera opens on Yasmin Hyland sitting in a huge jacuzzi, bubbles obscuring her obviously bare form beneath the water and a glass of wine purchased on the side of the jacuzzi as she addresses the camera.)

“Second chances are a rare commodity in any business dear Andrea, heaven forbid one be treated so casually and callously in an industry as unforgiving and fast moving as the professional wrestling world. You need have no fear: few would take a chance such as you have done in your situation, they would whine, moan, blame others, give in… all these things are the hallmarks of one who does not value the opportunities given to them and thus their word means nothing.”

“You are no such lowly figure, instead you stand heads above some of the supposed best in the world, for there can be no underestimated strength of will. Physical power can only get one so far, the unquenchable hunger, the drive like a bloodlust for success, that is what truly leads people to surpass their natural limits and propel themselves from merely impressive figures into true legends. Opponent or not, I have no problem declaring Andrea Valentine to be worthy of such praise and admiration from even those of us who have climbed the ladder of life and enjoy the view from the top of the mountain.”

“But admirable as it is that you have chosen to make the best use of a second chance and come back with a reignited spirit, I am afraid it will have to wait. Admire you or abhor you, I have no intention of allowing my own debut into a new world to fall by the wayside to appease one who has already wasted a chance before. Your resolve to return is of a sort I can only hope I will display myself as I carve out my place in the history of EAW but if taking my place in history must be done at the expense of your grand return, then so be it.”

“Do not mistake me for a cruel person, Andrea. But I do not care for your return… I admire your spirit but your return poses only an obstacle to my own arrival, and therefore you will be removed, as I have every obstacle life or opponents have ever put in my path. You may claim that chance will only carry me so far, and you are quite right of course… but rest assured darling, life is no fairytale; just because you wish with all your heart to make a hero’s return means little if you cannot best me and I assure you, I have no intentions of being bested anytime soon, a Queen will not be brought to her knees so easily."

“I do wish you the best of luck in your comeback Andrea, and after my victory I do so insist we must get to know each other better under more pleasant circumstances. What do you say, fine dining and vintage wine after our match? My treat naturally, consider it either my condolences for when you lose or my reward for your admirable spirit should you come out the victor."

"As for the rest of my dear future colleagues on the Empire roster, I bid you truly the most warm of welcomes. I hope that you do not think me conceited, aloof, bitchy... hmm, my apologies for my french. But, I do so hope that you girls do not think poorly of me, I do know that my demeanor can be off-putting, but please try to give me patience; I mean you no harm so long as you give me no reason to wish you harm and I believe genuinely that there is no reason we can not all get along amicably. After all, I will make it my goal to remove those who bring a negative influence to this glorious Empire I have set my sights upon."

"For now darlings, I must bid you adieu. But fret not, The Queen shall grace you Empire all too soon and before long it shall know a new ruler… you may be one of my many friends, or you may be one of my enemies who know only a brief existence before they are crushed beneath my heel, your decision. Tata for now."

THE NEW ME - THURSDAY NIGHT EMPIRE - MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE

The old me would have found a way to complain about my loss last week on Empire. The old me would have made up some excuse to get people to feel bad for me. Is the new me disappointed in myself after last week’s result? Nope. The new me takes every loss as an opportunity to allow myself to grow and get better. The new me is just tired of the bullshit. All I want to do is go into that ring each and every week and fight and give these bitches a reason to talk about me. In just two weeks I feel like I’ve gotten the world watching my every step. In the near five months I was here people didn’t want anything to do with me. They BEGGED for me to fail. But now, people are talking again. They’re noticing my change, and despite my loss to Sydney last week, what I did afterwards spoke volumes. Congratulations on your win my little crumpet, but it will be a short-lived celebration. I won’t deny your talent and skills in that ring because quite frankly I think you have what it takes to be elite here on Empire… just, your time isn’t right now. You’re a hard worker Sydney but the fact of the matter is that sooner rather than later, you’re going to crash and burn because the women here in this locker room are going to eat you alive. Like I said last week, if you were so bummed out that you fell into a serious depression because of some high school bullies, then the women here are going to push you over the edge. I know how it feels. And like you said we share some similarities, and I can see that you were a lot like me when I joined Empire. So hopefully you can take this advice as a gift from somebody you, for whatever reason, considered a friend and keep these words in the back of your mind, because it doesn’t matter how high up you’re feeling and how confident you are, someone is going to make it their sole plan to destroy you. Because all the women here SAY they want to see you do well… but just not better than them. Because this is a competition, and this competition has no time for friendships, or alliances, or unions - only foes. I learned this the hard way, and Sydney if you don’t heed this advice, you’ll learn it the hard way too.

So what does this mean for me? This Fatal 4 Way match and it’s “unique opportunity?” How many opportunities can Empire actually offer to give? It’s a championship match, right? It’s either going to be against Consuela Rose Ava or a spot in the Women’s Championship Chamber Match. Well, an opportunity has presented itself to me and now I’m going to work my ass off to grab it with my cold, bare hands. What a comeback story this would be, huh? Fading away from Empire and coming back stronger than ever. SO strong in fact that I would earn myself a shot at Aria Jaxon’s Women’s Championship and ultimately end her reign and become the champion myself. People crave stories like this… they love drama. And now that everyone is talking about me and my actions, I feel like I need to continue to follow through and provide results in the coming weeks. This is a chance to climb up the rankings here on Empire swiftly, because this athletically gifted girl from Hammersmith, London is about to make an impact here on Empire heard around the world. Sydney St. Clair, Revy and April Song won’t know what hit them. Sydney certainly didn’t know what hit her last week after our match. As for Revy, I mean who gives a damn, right? Not even Revy herself cares enough. She even straight up admitted that she wasn’t good enough. I mean, bloody hell. Who cares about some video game’s overall? It means next to nothing. I played as El Landerson in EAW 2K17, who was a 70 overall, and defeated Aren Mstislav, who was an 88 overall. Overalls don’t mean a damn thing, and if you’re comparing yourself to a god damned video game then you really must have some insecurities. Revy all in all I want you to stay in EAW because you’re an easy win for just about every member of this women’s division. You’ve been here since, what, June? I left a little before then, so we never had the chance to fight until Manifest Destiny. And what happened? After all those months away, I beat you. But sweetheart, keep having that self-confidence in yourself. I’m sure you’ll get an opportunity at the unemployment line soon enough. Sorry, that might have been a little cliche of me. Perhaps that insult has been overused more times than Brody Sparks herself. How about this one? Fuck you. It’s hilarious to see you talk about how I left because I was sad. You know, you’re right. I pretty much did leave EAW because I was sad. I let the personal shots at me get to me, and it became too much. But, I came back stronger, better and bitchier than ever, and this new me decimated you at Manifest Destiny. Oh, but keep talking about how I’m going to go cry and run to my dumbass ex-boyfriend for comfort. Honestly you’re that confusing that I don’t even think you YOURSELF know what you’re talking about. Do you pay attention to what goes on around you? Obviously you don’t because you can’t even have a match go longer than ten minutes without you flat on your back for a three count and a loss. But you know, I’m sure outside of EAW you’d actually be an alright person to hang around. I mean, you’re a gun enthusiast, you love to drink and smoke. I bet you love getting some shots up in Vegas, hey. It’s okay though Revy, I won’t tell anybody. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, am I right?

And as for April Song. I mean, you are the veteran of this Fatal 4 Way. Former Specialists Champion in your own right, and I’m sure these past couple of weeks have you frustrated to your very core. I have a sense that you’re going to be wanting to take out all this anger on the three of us in this Fatal 4 Way and earn yourself this opportunity. It seems that you’re unable to keep your cool in big situations, and it results in failure for you, April. You’re very talented, but when the going gets tough and the pressure kicks in, you cave. What’s going to happen if you cave in this Fatal 4 Way and you lose yet another opportunity at something big? Where will you go? What will you do? You’re just going to continue to fall. How unfortunate, right? I’m sure your five fans are going to be pulling for you to pick up this victory though, hun. I’m sure you can do it for them!

On the weather forecast this week for the Natural Disaster of Empire, it’s going to be cloudy with a chance of failure for these three women. I am tired of talking when I’ve been spending months non-stop working my ass off in the gym to get to this elite level that I am at right now. All I want to do is get into that ring and fight! Everyone has their eyes on me and I want to keep them glued to me! At first, they weren’t expecting my return. In fact, they hated seeing me back. They rolled their eyes and thought I was back for another pay-cheque, or a simple 15 minutes of fame again. But then, I showcased my new skillset, and after my victory at Manifest Destiny, they were surprised at how well I was able to handle myself. Then, after my unfortunate loss to Sydney, just when they thought that short boost of momentum had come to an end and I was on my way out of Empire again, I attacked Sydney St. Clair and now everybody is waiting and ready for what I’m going to do next. I’m making statements; statements that I should have been making in my first run here on Empire. But better late than never, right? Nobody is going to be able to stop the storm, because when it comes, it will flood the ring and drown these stupid bitches like Revy and Sydney that think they have what it takes, and drown an old, overrated veteran like April Song who thinks she’s able to still keep up with the rest of the younger ladies here. The important thing you all need to know, however, is this…

The storm is coming…

THE STORM IS COMING.

Re: EAW Promoz! October 3rd 2017, 7:41 pm by **Daisy Thrash**

(The camera opens on the iconic Beale Street in Memphis, TN. It is nighttime: the street is lit up from the signs from places like B.B. King’s Blues Club. It is here that Daisy Thrash is seen making her way through the dense crowd headed for an unknown destination, a bright smile on her face.)

What? You expected me to be all down in the dumps after losing at Manifest Destiny? No way. I’m not gonna waste my time with a pity party when I need to be staying on the grind. No matter how much I may have disappointed my fans I know they’ll be even more disappointed if I give up now. And, I mean, look around! How could I ever keep being sad in a place like this? I’ve only been here for a little while but it already feels like a home away from home. I guess it’s because of how much this city is basically a shrine to rock and roll music. One of my biggest connections in life has been to music. Wrestling definitely changed my life, but it was music that first shaped who I am. It got me in touch with my feelings. It gave me awareness about the things in this world that need to be changed. And it’s music that gives places like this a heartbeat of sorts. That heartbeat, with all of the noise and bright lights, fills the city with life; the kind that is loud and unashamed. I don’t know how some people, like Vexx Monroe for example, can look at a place like this and say that the world is cruel and desolate. But I’ll get to her later. First I want to show you all something.

(The camera shows a shot of the New Daisy Theatre.)

Yeah, I got a kick out the name when I first saw it. Then I decided I wanted to know a little more about this place that’s got my name on it. I found something interesting through my adventures on Google. Turns out Nirvana played a show here back in their earlier days. The future legends were once a new band promoting one of their first albums. It made me think some about my own career. I used to wrestle all the time in places like this. A lot of them were even smaller. I never knew what kind of opportunity was waiting just around the corner.

(Daisy continues walking and rounds the corner. The Fed-Ex Forum comes into view.)

The younger me that worked in armories and high school gyms never thought in a million years that she’d be wrestling in a place like this. It really hits home about how far I’ve come. I mean, if I’ve already made this much progress, who’s to say where I’ll be in a year or two? After all, every single title holder and big name in EAW started out at the bottom just like me. The sky’s the limit and I’ve barely gotten off the ground. Which brings me to you, Vexx Monroe.

(Daisy has a seat on the steps in front of the arena.)

Before you say anything, let me take a guess as to what it might be. Something you being an unstoppable predator, I’m sure. And me being the prey that you’re supposedly gonna chew up and spit out. Then maybe something to remind us just how dark and edgy you are. Well let me tell you a little something. I wasn’t afraid to go up against Alexis Diemos of all people. So what makes you think I’m the tiniest bit scared to get in the ring with you? And guess what else? You of all people are not gonna define me. No one gets to do that except for yours truly. The rest of the roster might think I have some kind of “kick me” sign on my back, but I am nobody’s prey. And I sure as hell am not some victim. You might think I have some hidden monster inside me, Vexx. You are sorely mistaken. My monster is always around. You think I don’t know about the evil that exists in this world? It’s why I ever brought out my monster in the first place. Except my monster isn’t some mindless beast. You’ll find out when you get caught in the cross-hairs. Then again, maybe you’ve realized that your little edgy act isn’t working. Maybe that’s why you’ve been so quiet. Maybe you’ve given up. Well I haven’t. I’m ready to succeed and I’m done with asking for permission. Who’s the one lacking conviction now? I know my day is coming. And I will get there the right way. No cutting corners, no moving the goalposts, no so-called “office meetings” with the Chairman. I’m gonna make it up to the folks back home. And, most importantly, I’m gonna make it up to myself.

Showdown Promo 1 – Prelude to a Sacrifice

The scene fades in, and we are presented with the image of Ryan Marx seated before a television, the screen showing replays of his contract signing with Stephanie Matsuda – his Final Sacrifice. Beside him stands Soledad, one of her hands on his shoulder and the other in his hair, and if those subtle strokes are soothing him then he doesn't show it. There's a moment of silence as they both watch the screen, both reflect on what happened at Showdown. Then, it is broken.

“We need to move past the Sacrifice for now,” Soledad states.

“Indeed,” Ryan replies, his eyes moving to his wife's and his hands moving to remove hers from himself. “Allow me some time to speak about this week's intrusion. Then we can discuss the Sacrifice.”
“Of course.”

With that, Soledad leaves his side. She goes to the TV and, after looking over at Ryan and receiving a silent, subdued nod in response to her unasked question, turns off the footage that left a bitter taste in both their mouths. Wading through the quiet, Soledad leaves, and Ryan turns his attention to more pressing matters.

The Final Sacrifice wishes to make her strength known to me, but she must understand that she is not the one in control here. She is playing to my tune, my command. And despite the fact that she is going to be at ringside for this match, she will not be a determinant in the outcome. There are two reasons for this: one, I will not bend to her will and I will not break under her gaze; and two, I am facing Lucas Johnson of all people.

A quiet sigh.

Lucas, we have encountered one another briefly at some point in the past. It was an eight-person tag team match – the Openweight title contenders versus the New Breed title contenders during the build-up to Pain for Pride. If I recall correctly, you took your time with a response, said barely anything – most likely out of fear – and then lost. I expect a similar experience this time around, and if not a similar build, then the outcome of the match shall be the same. For you see, Lucas, I will not allow you to make a fool out of me on my path to Road to Redemption. And I especially will not allow you to make a fool of me in front of my Final Sacrifice.

You see, as I looked back on my past remarks to you, I have realised that not much has changed. You are but a stagnant lake surrounded by an uncared-for forest: unchanging and festering in your own sorry state. The only remnant of change from our last small encounter is the absence of the New Breed Championship around your waist. Thank God that belt managed to wrestle itself from your grasp and into a place of potential, because there is little of that to be found in you. We could bring up your chances at the National Elite Championship – all of them that you have squandered – or your experience here in EAW, but it would mean very little. Maybe those claims would mean something if you didn't believe everyone to be beneath you. Just in your last match, for example, you put everyone else down: “I'm the reason you're in the main event”, “I am going for the National Elite Championship because I am better than all of you”. And look what happened: you lost. Which means you must be rather delusional, Lucas.

Yes, that's exactly what you are. Delusional and petulant. Clearly you must have inherited some kind of trauma from your childhood that stunted your mental capacity, because your attitude is practically identical to that of a child's. You may believe that your blind rage makes you a threat, but it actually makes you incredibly easy to avoid and manipulate. A blind man cannot find his way out of the dark, after all. And I am that darkness. There will be no night lights for you, child. I dare you to make some bold and tired claim: “I make more money than you”, “I held the New Breed title for longer than you”, or maybe you will even attempt to say you are “better than me”. Go ahead, pull at your string and spew out one of your phrases that you repeat week after week. Maybe you will provide logical reasoning for the phrase this week...though I highly doubt it. So go forth, spread more of your predictable lies, and then prepare yourself to be consumed by the darkness that you do not even realise surrounds you.

I would say you are a broken record, but even a broken record sounded appealing to someone once before. You have never been capable of doing that. Even as a champion, you were not respected, and as a challenger it is the same. You wish to bully people like you were bullied in your past, but the reality is that you will always be that picked-on child. You will forever remain that victim, the one that acts tough but cries into his paychecks when no one is looking. The one that is laughed at both behind his back and to his face. Because you see, Lucas, you can have the undefeated amateur wrestling background, you can have the New Breed title reign, and you can have every materialistic luxury you can afford – but none of it will garner you respect. None of it will make you a threat. Because in EAW, you are a man who talks and talks, and never says anything of note at all. You dig a hole by saying you are better than your opponents, and then you turn it into your grave when those opponents put you in your place. Yet somehow, you find a way to wriggle back into the spotlight, to dig through the dirt and speak once more.

So at Showdown, in front of my Final Sacrifice, I shall do what many others have done to you, only I will do it with certainty. I shall show the world that you are still a man who boasts of his grand kingdom whilst residing in a mere cardboard box. I will show everyone that you have not changed, you have not adapted – you are the same rinse-and-repeat competitor everyone knows you to be. The 'Wrestling Machine' is an accurate description, for you are just a robot, left to do nothing but repetitive, meaningless tasks. Although, I don't need to prove that this week. I'm sure you will prove it yourself.

And once you are done proving that, showing everyone your true colours, I will be the first to not just throw the dirt onto your coffin, but to pour in the cement. For I will not tolerate your resurrection, I will not enable another rise from the ashes. I will throw those ashes to the wind. And with them, shall go your chances of being seen as anything more than a failure.

Ryan smirks, the expression a drastic change from his severe face seen at the beginning of the video. Cut to black.

Make no mistake about it, Scott Oasis took me out to the woodshed for the second consecutive time and easily disposed of me like I was nothing worth merit. There is something about that guy that I just can't seem to figure out. He's a man on a serious mission every time he walks down to that ring, he sees the world in black and white, just like I do, he strips the match of any flare or vigor that it has and looks to completely assassinate his opponent, I guess that's why they call him the Iceman. I hated to have pissed away an opportunity to enter the elimination chamber and it's not going to sit right with me for a while, there's no disputing that but the difference between Scott Oasis and myself is that I have the Hardcore Title to catch me when I fall, where he has absolutely nothing or no one to catch him when he inevitably descends on his downward spiral after he fails to capture the Answers World Championship in the elimination chamber. That's not to say my quest for the Answers World Championship is dead and gone, it's simply postponed for the time being. You can't rush these types of things anyway if fate deals me a hand where I become the Answers World Championship next week, next month, or next year then so be it, regardless, I wouldn't take it for granted.

----------------

There was a point in my life when I was around the wee age of fifteen where my world had hit rock bottom. I was a juvy kid, a young rebel chained against his own will, stuck in a rather flawed detention center which is a silly politically correct term for a kid's prison. That's where I got the nickname "society's misfit", I was always sticking my nose in places where it didn't belong and before I knew it I was picking up other people's trash under long stretched out highways, dressed to the brim in prison orange, smelling like piss and shit on a daily basis and that still hasn't changed to this day mind you, all because I was trying to survive. I suppose I got a little bit greedy when I tried to rob a jewelry store and re-sell the merchandise at a local pawn shop, such a bright idea right? I was hauled off in an instant and three broken fingers, a busted nose, and a fractured orbital bone later courtesy of an overzealous, anal-retentive cop who was too big for his britches, I was eating slop customized by the hard-working prison chef we called the mole troll, essentially she looked like a troll with a mole that you couldn't remove with the sharpest of spatulas. Being fifteen and clueless at the time, I didn't pick my fights wisely and I ended up grasping the shortest straw most of the time, picking fights with jacked up "18" year olds, dressed head to toe in tribal gang tattoos who were always on the hunt for that one loudmouth who never learned to shut the fuck up and there was always one of them, believe me. I happened to be that one loudmouth on a day where a particular juvy kid nicknamed "mean streak" Mike had his cheerios pissed on one too many times that day and I don't remember what I said but boy I must have ruffled his feathers. He broke my femur bone and my ribs just by the sheer force of his fists and feet, I lost about six teeth when he threw me face first into a steel radiator and just for good measure he took a long aggression-fueled, pent-up piss on my face to put an exclamation mark on his beating.

And for the first time in my life, I prayed.

I didn't know how or what for, but I prayed with everything I had and low and behold, about an hour later, he came back and proceeded to defecate all over my face, it was the equivalent of kicking a dog while it's down.

So you can see why I've never been a believer, to me, it's all a bunch of fairy tale hodgepodge in an attempt to right a ship that has been all but wrecked at sea. They say to keep the faith, they say good things come to those who wait, but I live in the here and the now and I don't have the patience or the time to wait for a biblical golden halo to glow profusely in the sky. Nico, I'm not looking to take away your religious commitments, I'm not looking to take away the rapturous angels that shine on your shoulders who are aligned with In Hoc Signo Vinces, I'm not even looking to take your coveted Cash In The Vault briefcase as nice as that would be, I'm just looking to knock you down a few pegs because ever since your supposed divine intervention I feel like you've acted bigger than you really are. My question to you is, why were your prayers answered and not mine? What makes you so special? What makes you separate yourself from the pack? What makes you such a prophet; such a golden boy who walks these hallowed grounds as somebody who has been blessed by a higher power when no more than a year ago, you were scratching and clawing at the bottom of the barrel until your fingernails bled, in a time where you were against your will, down in the black, pitiless against the other monsters that craved the light that you had been gifted and now you go week in and week out with your mysterious chorus behind you, praising your light, that you were simply lucky enough to THINK you obtained. Maybe that's all it was Nico, pure luck that you got out of your funk and if that is the case, then maybe luck will find your way again, but it won't be good luck, it'll be bad luck. The kind of bad luck when you step on a crack and break your mother's back, where black cats follow you around enigmatically and I happen to be one of them, brushing up against your legs, secretly casting a spell of pure hatred upon you, where everything that could go wrong, does. I've had my eyes on you for a long time Nico. Ever since I was a mere sapling on Showdown, I've watched you skyrocket to almost the very top of EAW and I'm not derailing your talent, but the principles you base your talent on. Maybe you don't need the light, maybe you don't need the chorus holding you up, maybe you have it within yourself, your own inner resources to flourish, maybe that's what it was all along, but the thing is you have set yourself up on this holy pedestal where you feel untouchable or unconquered and the idea that I can knock you off your godly perch and show you a world full of misanthropy, a world of misery unforeseen by the likes of many, worse than you've ever experienced before is very, very enthralling to me. It's not all bad down here anyway Nico, there's plenty of room for new blood. In fact, we need it more than ever because in my book, there are not enough dastardly human beings on this roster and on Dynasty I plan to drag you down under, past the worms that squirm in the soil, past the bones of the forgotten dead, into the world of Darkane. Regardless, I still have to carry out my own personal orders to eradicate you completely, so in turn, you can either put up the fight of your life and blame it on the light when it never comes or you can just lay down and pray and let the darkness take you away.

I firmly believe that this match between you and I will be an ultimate collision of two titans that have always been aware of each other's presence, but never have intersected or crossed paths before and yeah you may have taken me down at Territorial Invasion but lets call a spade a spade here, I was on my last legs while you were relatively unscathed. I'm not making excuses, I'm just pointing out that on Dynasty you will get me hot off the press, there will be no feeble excuses, there will certainly be no backtracking and second-guessing yourself like you did at House of Glass, perhaps that was the first time in a long time that you showed a certain uneasiness in what you preach, some may call it a smart and calculated move on your part, that you saw that the odds may not have been in your favor, even though everybody in their right mind except for you thought you could have run down that aisle and captured the Answers World Championship, but you displayed an act of fear, like you couldn't take The Pizza Boy right then and there, that you'll have to wait until he's even weaker, hell, you'll probably wait until he's been through a physical world of hurt in the elimination chamber and then you'll unleash your so-called wrath from above onto The Pizza Boy, when he's down and out without an ounce of fight left in him. As for you and I, we'll be addressing the ever so present and massive elephant in the room of who would win in a colossal war of wars between Darkane and Nico Borg. A question that has been asked about for months now and quite frankly, I intend to answer that question with flying colors. I'm not going to hold anything back, but if I see the same look I saw in your eyes as you back peddled up that ramp at House of Glass, no matter if you have a pair of seraphic angels sitting on your shoulders or a higher power that has a bird's eye view of everything you do or a light that burns profoundly within the confines of yourself, it will cease to matter, it will simply be game, set and match.

Unvanquished. Unconquered.

For now.

Empire Promo #1

“Girls Like You”

(The camera opens to Stephanie Matsuda walking to the Javits Center for the New York City Comic Con with Mao Ichimichi. She stops to sign autographs with several adoring fans and heads towards the entrance as EAW Interviewer; Stan Lawson walks up to her.)

Stan: Stephanie Matsuda, if I can get a word.

Stephanie: Sure, Stan The Man. What can I do for you?

Stan: You are here on Showdown for the Openweight Championship contract signing. How do you feel about your chances against Ryan Marx?

Stephanie: Well I slew bigger dragons than Marx in my past, so I would say my chances are quite fair. It won’t be an easy match, but I’ve been studying his tapes. I have an idea what to bring to the table.

Stan: Speaking of which, this week you return to action against newcomer Chelsea Crowe. It was her interference that put Kimi Hendrix out of commission, thus improving your chances at Manifest Destiny. What did she say to you before leaving the ring?

Stephanie: “Thank me later.” (laughs) If a match against me is going to be my way of paying her back, then so be it.

Stan: She recently stated that she was put in this match to be a pawn for you to fight before going into your match with Marx at Road to Redemption. She claims that she refuses to be overshadowed by you. What are your thoughts on the matter?

Stephanie: Overshadowed by me? Heh, I could careless whether or not I overshadow, much less how it makes her feel. The GM gave me a match and it just so happens that she is my opponent, plain and straightforward. You see Stan, Chelsea is another one of ‘those girls’.

Stan: ‘Those girls’?

Stephanie: Yeah, those girls who think they’re somehow ahead of the curve. They assume their disassociation with the brand gives them some power. This act is no different than the anonymity online trolls enjoy. Nobody cares what you think of this roster Chelsea, just like nobody gives a damn about you outside this ring. Maybe your way of coping with your loneliness is antagonizing others.

(Stephanie takes the mic from Stan)
Stephanie: Let me tell you something, Chelsea. You’re not ahead of the curve. You’re not as cool as you think you are. You make smart remarks about my friendship with Aria - Oh wow! There you go ‘columbusing’ the same crap everyone else has said. You say that Brody and Maddie overshadow me, that Alexis controlled me? You sure like sharing your opinions about things you weren’t even around for. Friends come and go, and unlike you, I can say it’s better to have loved and lost than have loved at all. These people you mentioned have shaped me as a person, love them or hate them. That’s what people do Chelsea, we influence one another. The good and bad times; the happiness and pain? I wouldn’t trade these experiences for anything. The difference between you and I sweets is that I’m a risk taker. You play it safe and hide in the shadows. You’re worried about my glory stealing your spotlight? There’s no spotlight to take! (laughs) Girls like you stay out of pocket, just yapping away, thinking you’re more complex than you actually are. I know you Ms. Crowe. I went to highschool with your type. I used to turn out girls like you back at Brooklyn College, making them my bitch with these very fingers. The fake ass hoes who want to kiss a girl for the attention, the ‘i’m going to wear all black’ because in reality, you’re not confident enough to wear something colorful and stand in the light.

(Stephanie laughs again and looks down)

Stephanie: The life you describe is one of someone who knows the meaning of wins and losses. The life you ridicule is the one of someone who knows what it means to love others. Aria is my best friend, of course, we’ll hang out with each other. I don’t know who broke your heart sweets, but you’re projecting a lot. But I’ll say this - that dime store Hot Topic look? It doesn’t suit you. In fact, I’m willing to say that’s not you at all. Did you hire some PR scrub who told you wearing all black with dark lipstick will make you relatable to some hoodie wearing Juggalos from Suburbia, New Jersey? There’s something about you - something you’re hiding. When we get into that ring on Thursday, I’ll be able to see it clear as day. I have a feeling what it may be though - you can’t fight, not at least as well as you think. You’re probably betting on Ryan Marx interfering in our match so you can walk out with a victory. Honestly? That’s the only way you will ever beat me in that ring, Chelsea. And if by chance he helps you win, that’s okay. I’ll still be here, sweets. You see, life is long, and when you make the wrong decisions that long stretches just a bit more. You claim not to be new to this business, but you’re certainly no master. I’ll have plenty of opportunities to kick your sorry ass for years to come; provided that you don’t disappear off the face of the planet.

(The camera zooms in on Cloud’s face)

Stephanie: You see sweets, girls like you always disappear - usually by my hand, or one of my dear friends you seem to taken a liking to. Women like Cleo, Cailin, Sher? Gone. The Lumen Grays of the world? Poof. A certain Joshi who used to be a pain in my side is so far down the ladder, she’s can’t even see me. That’s what happens to those who test my patience Chelsea. I wipe them from existence! I can offer such a luxury if you’re feeling brave and bold enough to take on my offer. You predict a future where you use me as an example of what to do - ironically in less than a year you won’t to concern yourself with that. Girls like you don’t last and if there’s anything I’m right about it’s that. You know nothing of sacrifice or evolution. Nobody starts out perfect sweets - we just get a little better as time goes on. I don’t intend on having the legacy Aria has. She’ll go down as the greatest women’s wrestler of all time. As for me? I’ll just settle for being the best overall. So, here I am on a different path - fighting for the right to be Showdown’s ambassador. One thing we’ll agree on is that this match is just practice for me. I know you have to mouth off and show me that you’re more than meets the eye. It’s the nature of our business to present ourselves to the fans before fight night and engage in a war of words. So far, I see someone who talks a good game, but that’s just about it. But, if you think you have what it takes to beat me, then welcome to Cloud Country. Thursday night you get to see its capital, Cloud City. As a bonus, you get to show Marx what it’s like to be in my neck of the woods. In a way, I’m making you famous. So take in this moment and cherish it, Chelsea. Something tells me you won’t be around for long. But I wouldn’t fret - someone as gifted as you will get back on her feet. I just have to knock some sense back into you.

(Stephanie winks)

Stephanie: Thank me later.

(Stephanie hands the mic back to Stan and walks inside the convention center with Mao)

Stan: There you have it EAW Universe, that was a confident Stephanie Matsuda.

Re: EAW Promoz! October 3rd 2017, 3:34 pm by **Andrea Valentine**

"Sink or swim. Do or die. And, in a sense, kill or be killed. That's always been the nature of the business and I really thought I knew that I thought I understood that from the beginning but I hadn't actually been in a situation to feel that kind of pressure. The kind of pressure where you have to really understand the gravity of what's going on to know whether you're going to be able to make the most of it, or crack and crumble because it all just became too much. When I was told that I had to report back to developmental after only two matches? That was my do or die situation. That was when it really hit me that my short-lived run on Empire earlier this year was just me treading water - not really going anywhere, but doing just enough to keep myself afloat before I was tossed a life preserver that I hadn't thought I needed. I could've thrown a vindictive fit backstage when I was informed, gone off on everyone in sight because it seemed as though my dream was being taken from me without much more thought or my input. I'd just gotten here and already I was supposed to go back? Don't get me wrong, I hadn't come into this expecting someone to hold my hand and guide me through everything step-by-step; I pretty much came into this on my own with reluctant support and then confined to the role of interviewing for a smaller promotion when what I wanted to do was wrestle. I was frustrated with that then just like I was frustrated with the idea of having to go back to developmental. I wasn't sure who to be mad at. Myself? The person who decided that that would be the best course of action for me? I didn't know, but I took all of that and used it as fuel to get back here to Empire and sure enough, that's where I find myself now."

"But most people, they'd look at that think that I should have been angry, say how I should have done something right then and there to show that I wasn't going to stand there and take that. But the thought of verbally lambasting or even attacking everyone in my line of vision because they'd believe that I should have felt slighted? That's not me, that's not who I am - and while having to go back was a real hard pill to swallow, I was determined to make the most of it. Sure, it was a big gamble having to give up my roster spot on Empire, but it was seeing everyone around me as I was preparing to work my way back that I realized that I had only felt like I wanted to be there on Empire. I had only wanted to make it there because, at the time, that's what I thought would validate my dreams, my overall being here. But that was just the tip of the iceberg, and that's when it hit me when I was back training: I didn't just want to be there on Empire, I needed to be here. It was the wakeup call that I didn't know I needed and while some people would have seen it as a big slap in the face, I was grateful that the management had taken that chance on me. Kept me around and allowed me to find myself in a business where it's all about taking risks, getting a chance and making the most of it no matter how minuscule - and taking that kind of plunge into uncertainty. And that's what's going down on Empire when I get into the ring with you, Yasmin. You went and found yourself so fascinated with the world of wrestling that now you're here on the grand stage of Empire, ready to step out under the bright lights of the arena and show the world that you're prepared to take the biggest leap of all by walking into the land of elite with the intention of showing that you're going to make it far here. You consider yourself to be a big deal in the world of gambling and in some ways, the world you were so accustomed to before isn't so much different than the one you've gone and found yourself in now; like I said, it's all about taking chances. But getting into that ring and proving your worth requires more than just a bit of luck, it takes more than just hoping that the skillset you're about to walk in with has a good enough probability to outdo your opponent's for some chance of success. And you just can't have to want it, you have to need it."

"And while I'm sure you want your debut on Empire to be a successful one, that's exactly what I need my return to be because this can't be another opportunity wasted. I have to make the most of this after what I've been through to assure that the faith that was stored in me to bounce back better than I was before wasn't misplaced. Besides how I could have easily blamed everyone else for my trip back to development, I could have just as easily walked away from all this and never looked back. I could've given up during all those months away from the roaring crowds and the cutthroat locker room, but what matters most is that I didn't. I stayed and in the process became even more determined than I had ever been before, I got better than I did all those months ago and what drove me to keep going was knowing that one day I'd find myself back here because I'd show that I deserved to be! I worked tirelessly through the odd glances I received from everyone who looked at me and believed that they saw someone who flopped on the first try, but I wasn't going to let that be what they all remembered me for. I only had everything to gain from an experience like that because I was willing to put in the work - all the sweat and tears, all my heart and soul because when I looked to the likes of Cameron Ella Ava, Heartbreak Gal, Tarah Nova and Aria Jaxon, they all just served as reminders to me that with enough resolve, that by being stubborn enough and by actually believing in myself that I could make it here. That I had a future here so long as I was able to look at myself and know that the goals I set for myself could very well be within reach. Sure, the reset button had to get pushed and I got sent back all the way back to the start, but it only made my desire to be surrounded by the best and the idea of taking on the best that much stronger. The deck was reshuffled, a new hand was dealt out and, Yasmin, I don't know about you but I'm ready to go all in this round because I'm pulling no punches. I'm not letting this new opportunity go up in smoke or have anyone run around here thinking that it was an absolute waste - everyone's going to see that I earned this, that I shouldn't be standing backstage getting ready with a clipboard full of questions and the cameraman giving me the signal to announce: 'Ladies and gentlemen, my guest at this time..' Because I've come a whole hell of a way from those days, because I'm more than just the girl who thought that she merely wanted to be here. With that kind of renewed purpose, with the kind of thought process I'm running with now, it's going to take more than just the attraction to victory you've got or the allure of one day being a champion to see your way to a win. You've got to contend with a woman inside the ring who took a gamble with her young career, ventured out into an uncertainty she never thought she'd have to tackle, yet came out on the other side with a reignited fire that burns brighter than that red hair of yours and who intends to reap the rewards."

"Make no mistake about it, I'm not saying all that like there's some idea that I doubt you're capable of giving me a good match, or because you're a former dancer. I don't know about some of these other girls, but I couldn't care less about how you had to go about making a living then. In the here and now, what you do inside that ring is the only thing that matters at the end of the day and all that matters to me because I want you at your best and without any indication of otherwise. That way, when I do win, I'll have been able to prove that this wasn't all for nothing, that when it came down to it there was no denying that I was capable of getting the job done and I can walk away from this match with everyone else knowing I'm more sure of myself, more ready than I've ever been. A victory for me cements that without question and when we're through after what I hope proves to be a close contest where I'm the one getting my hand raised, there won't be a shadow of a doubt. So, deal out everything you're able to muster up. Hit me with everything you've got because I'll be looking to hit back harder and when I do, I'll be clearing you from my path the one way I know how and in the end, the odds will have just revealed themselves to not be in your favor."

No Mistake
Dynasty vol. 2

Myself and Nasir Moore share many similarities. What I’m overcoming now is something Nas has dealt with the entire time he’s been in EAW and what I’m referring to doesn't have anything to do with what heppens inside the ring. Both of us care about the audience, we aren’t the fastest or the strongest, but what we have both moved forward through and undying will to win and succeed. In many ways I am forced to look up to my opponent because of the fact that there is so much I can learn from him and he has jumped many of the hurdles I’ve grazed on my journey to the top and when he explicitly tells me what I need to do to gain credibility I am in no position to turn away that advice. And Nas is right to think that it is unfortunate for me to be matched up against him instead of someone else because I have no choice but to respect him and as he said his stock has never been higher but this is where the fork in the road begins between me and my opponent.

I don’t blame you if you didn’t happen to notice, but last week leading up to my match with Reginald Dampshaw III, which I would undoubtedly end up winning, I expressed restlessness. I told the world that I am growing bored and unchallenged with the cycle of men who bring no new arguments to the table. They criticise me for wearing a mask, they call my name stupid, or they state the typical claims that I don’t deserve to share a ring with them, which I’m sure you’ve had to experience as well. But it’s rare that these opponents come my way and manage to outmatch me once we step in the ring. So I said to the world that after I beat Dampshaw I don’t want to just continue that same cycle of beating men who have no respect for myself or what we do. I said that I wanted a challenge… and here you are. The Nasir Moore. The CM Banks Slayer. The only man standing between me and the biggest opportunity of my career. I have been working since I came to EAW waiting for the day that I would be in the conversation for one of the most prestigious accolades this company could ever bestow to me.

I know you’re good. I know you don’t have the option of letting me have this win which is why I know that if I want it I’m going to need to rip it away from you and take it, just like you’re going to need to do to me. I know that I can afford to lose this match. We are the main event and you are the bigger star so even though this match is going to earn me some clout, nobody is expecting Target Smiles to be victorious. But nobody has ever broken barriers by winning when they are expected to win. Our fellow elitists who I know you do care about, they’re waiting for their buddy Nas to win the main event of Dynasty and go on to get another shot at the Answers World Championship. They aren’t pulling for Target Smiles, they aren’t going to lose any respect for me if I lose to you and neither are any of the Smiling Faces who will be watching around the world. I’m not going to disappoint anyone if I lose to you Nas, and that quite honestly disgusts me. There is no mountain so high that I cannot climb it and the lack of faith that people show in me is disappointing, especially when I know that all of that falls on my shoulders. Any doubts that anyone might have in me is my cross to bare as it is a result of matches like this. It is a result of moments where just being invited to the dance is an honor, where it is also a high pressure situation and I end up with a participation trophy and a pat on the back. I move forward into an uphill battle because even though I was good enough to get first place I didn’t have the discipline to make it happen.

You might think you know me so well. Because you were here when I arrived in EAW, because I was such a hot topic during my run in season 10. Trust me Nasir Moore when I tell you that behind this mask there are a lot of things you don’t know about me. Where I’m from, what I’ve done, where I’ve been, or who I’ve met. There is not a soul who knows the full journey of Target Smiles. You know my story in EAW, but you don’t know as much as you think you do. You think you’re in my head or that I got unlucky. You say that I got the wrong opponent but the truth is I got the right opponent. I don’t want to beat Hurricane Hawk again and Jacob Senn is a story for another day. You Nas, you’re at the start of your prime and you have what you need to take everything you have ever wanted from this business but I want to be the best. I want to stand at the top of the mountain and hold the Answers World Champion. But you said it yourself, it’s not enough to win a championship. I want to prove myself as the finest competitor this company has to offer and beating the man of his era certainly won’t hurt.

Dynasty PROMO #2

Eat. Hawk. Eat. A lot of people do not understand the concept of hunger. They think of just homeless people getting very hungry.. waiting for food from the people around them that they believe are above them. They think that this is the end for them and that there is no step to moving up on the ladder, but for me, I believe there is more for me. I used to be something that everyone looked up to and now people are looking to me as though I'm down on the ladder. They believe that I'm just some little stepping stone that could move them up on the ranking because I'm an EAW Hall of Famer, but that is nowhere near where I am. But honestly, I have that fiend instinct inside of me now. I feel as though I'm hungry. I feel as though that these chances are getting smaller and smaller and this one is the biggest one to ever get to me. This is where I eat. Jacob Senn, how about you actually do something that matters in this business instead of focusing on something else. This upcoming event is something that I never succeeded on but this time I will. This is the event that I always look to and every time I do I start to fiend more and more for the chance to get back. The Road to Redemption: what does it really mean? I started my road to redemption when I stepped back on the path to getting back into this business. Senn, unlike you I had to work to get back here. Unlike you, I had to be better, I had to show that I was better, while you were here trying to show yourself and be the man that everyone thinks you are, but honestly you are nowhere near where these people think you are. You think you're some anti-hero with an addiction to get at Mr. DEDEDE, and I can't lie I was that type of guy until I realized that I had something better. I wanted to get at CM Bank$ for so long and then I had the opportunity just to fall down and everyone thought that it was over for me until I used that Cash in the Vault briefcase to become the EAW Wolrd Heavyweight Champion. You could have had that opportunity Senn. You could have been the next EAW Answers World Champion but you failed to grab that briefcase over the idea of becoming the next man to fail to Mr. DEDEDE. Even though I failed to become the next number one contender for the EAW Hardcore Championship, you embarrassed yourself while I put on a great performance. An impressive performance. You were right there at the top of the ladder and you could have just grabbed the briefcase, but that is not what you wanted. Just like this, you're going to go too far and show yourself off and then realize that is not what you want, and you're going to fall to me. I have no time to to fall to someone like you. Someone that is not even worried about trying to become the next EAW Answers World Champion. I have a lot of plans and a lot of things on my plate. I feel like the pressure and world is on my shoulders and I am going to be just like Atlas, holding the world up with everything I have. But unlike Atlas, I'm going to be able to move forward with everything on my shoulders and I'm going to do the impossible that everyone thinks is just going to be another fail for me.

Jacob Senn I cannot wait until we step into that ring because this is just going to be a message for all of those men who want to step into that ring with me. All of the men that are going to be in a pod waiting for their chance, just to fall to me. Jacob Senn, not only am I going to beat you but I'm going to step forward to the Extreme Elimination Chamber at Road to Redemption and I am going to be the next champion while you look up to me and say to yourself that you failed because you were so hellbent on getting to someone else that you did not even see the big picture. I see the big picture because I put so much into that art.. so much into that paint that I need to get back to it. I am the creative artist, while you are just the theft trying to take it from me, but this is not happening anymore. I have already been through my opportunities taken away from me. I am TIRED of being at the bottom while everyone else just flies through to take it from me. I am going to be the man at the top this time and everyone will see it. This is not going to be 2012 again. I am not going to step into that Extreme Elimination Chamber and see myself fall under the lights. This upcoming Dynasty I will be under the lights because I am not just stepping up to the plate to see myself fight one of the elitist who are at the bottom but one of the elitist who has flew through this business and has gained a lot through earning. One of the elitist who has a prestige career and is looking to gain so much more but does not realize that if he does not knock himself back into his right mind he is going to get beat, and even if he does get back into his right mind I am not dropping this chance to him. I have been here far too long just to fall once again. I need this for me. I need this because this is the way to get back. This is the way to show that I am still here and that I am going nowhere! I am going to grab this opportunity from you Senn and I am going to PROVE myself to everyone in this business just like I did at House of Glass. No, I did not get the chance, but this is where I am going to give myself the opportunity to show EVERYONE that not only am I just a smash mouth talking show off, but I am one of the greatest to ever step into an EAW ring. I am going to not only step into that ring and gain the victory Senn, but I am going to run on this path.. run on this road to gain my redemption and become the NEXT..

EAW Answers World Champion.

VOLTAGE PROMO #1

There was a part of me that expected this to happen. There was a part of my being that subconsciously told me that I was too full of myself, that tonight wasn’t supposed to be my night. The part of me that said I wasn’t going to beat Jamie O’Hara, that I wasn’t going to be someone who sent a message to the World Champion. I protested, however. Why shouldn’t I be the one to defeat him? Why is my rise one that has still yet to fully grow? Why can’t I be the man to make a statement against him? After all, I’ve worked so fucking hard to get where I am, to stand in the limbo between championship and failure; why can’t I finally reach that gold? I should have listened to that voice. I should have heeded its warning, I should have been prepared and ready to face someone of his cabinet. But I didn’t. I wasn’t prepared, I could barely fight off against him, didn’t get any offended in whatsoever, and essentially I went out like a little bitch. I tried to fight back, I did my best to make do with what I was given, and I squandered on it. I cracked, I broke. Again. Again, I wasn’t good enough. Again, I wasn’t ready to break the glass ceiling above me. Despite my best efforts to tell myself that I would finally be able to show my worth, be able to show the world that Lars Grier isn’t a failure anymore, I still failed. Again. Fuck…..FUCK….I try to be calm, try to remain collected in moments like these, but sometimes it proves to be too much. I could act professional, I could brush this failure as nothing more than a setback, but I can’t. Jamie sees this as yet another name conquered, another rung on the ladder scaled, but not me. I can’t see it that way, not after the way I went out like a little bitch. After all I said, after everything I claimed, I just can’t act like nothing happened. I may be The Raven, I may talk in and on about evolution and getting back up from failure, but even as the Embodiment of Evolution, it doesn’t get rid of the pain. The somber feeling you get when you step through those curtains, realizing that no matter how hard you trained to prepare for that night, despite the statements and the ludicrous claims you made, you weren’t good enough to prove shit. You can’t stop that pain. I feel it every time my back lies across the mat, my eyes glazed over, staring up at the bright lights because I was so fucking stupid to think I could stand any chance. For all my words and my claims of caling O’Hara human, not once did I stop to take myself into consideration, to remind myself that I was ALSO human, that I wasn’t a god or a monster. Not once did I stop to think about how my words applied to me; that was the catalyst for my downfall. My downfall at the hands of someone who may well and truly be - unconquerable. But this...this is what happens. This is what happens to me every time I attempt to go out of my way to challenge someone who has more accolades than me, more success and glory than what I’ve achieved. I fail. I fall, I take a step back and I’m left reeling from their shot fired. Ryan Marx, Rex McAllister, Nico Borg, and now Jamie O’Hara - it’s men like these who always, ALWAYS stand in my fucking way every time I try to reach something I think I can reach. It’s men like these who stand as a dead end in my road that I can never seem to find away to break through, and that pisses me off. It angers me to know that every time I attempt to be something better than I already am, there’s always somebody who wants to stand in my fucking way and send me five steps backwards, again. Again, and again, and again, I am left behind everyone else for despite all my strength and how much I’ve worked to achieve what I have, it will never seem to be enough. Even when I think I have it all figured out, there always happens to be an outlier than comes in and fucks everything up, leaving me with nothing but shit in my hands. I said retarded shit, shit that shouldn’t have been able to come out of my mouth and yet it did, and I am left looking like an absolute fool. I am supposed to be The Raven, I am supposed to be better than this, and yet somehow my words feel as if I’m the Manifestation of Destruction again. My words reminisce of those days, back when I was an absolute failure, a fish out of water from the moment I came into this company. My words towards Jamie were as if I was still a destroyer….but no more. No more. I can’t let opportunities like that pass by me anymore. I can’t let chances to face champions slip through my fingertips, and I swear….by my cold, black and empty heart that I will change. I will adapt, I will evolve, I will become BETTER so that at Road to Redemption I can finally show you all the fruits of my labour. I will show you ALL that I am a motherfucker who can’t be taken down with a snap of your fingers. I will show everyone, in this company and in this world that The Raven has finally been UNLEASHED. I died with a whimper last Voltage; I didn’t do shit and ended after that match feeling like complete and utter garbage, for I know that in this world, there are only two things that matter in a business built upon competition: Victories, and failures. Nothing more, nothing less. No one will give a shit about you if you “tried your best” or “gave your opponent a hard time.” No one gives a shit about your struggle to win, no one will give a shit about how much you’ve suffered in a battle - only the outcome. The outcome is what will matter, the ending of whether or not you succeeded is what will matter once the dust settles. People will forget about your exploits and the road you went on to be able to have a fight for your life within a living hell. Everyone forgets the hardships the face the moment that bell rings, and everything you did beforehand won’t mean shit.

You know a lot about that.

Don’t you, TLA?

You know so much about coming so close, yet so far. I’d even say that you may as well be the epitome of that sentiment, for after all these years of chasing that brass ring, after all those attempts to reach for that piece of gold, you still manage to have a crack. A dent in your exterior, a knife stuck in your back; a weakness that prevents you from ever truly becoming...great. For months, you have been chasing and running after that piece of World leather and gold, like a carrot on a stick, you run. It flings back and forth from that string; and every time it swings so close to your face, to the point where you can almost taste it, it looks like you’ll finally do it, you’ll finally be able to be the TLA everyone wants to see. They always say it - no, they SCREAM from the top of their lungs: “THIS IS IT! THIS IS TLA’S NIGHT! HE’LL FINALLY BE ABLE TO WIN THAT TITLE, OH BOY, I CAN JUST FEEL IT! WHO CARES ABOUT HIS FAILURES FROM THE PAST?! WHO CARES ABOUT HOW MANY TIMES HE’S TRIED TO DO IT, I KNOW HE FINALLY WILL!” And every single time, they believe it. They truly do. In their hearts and in yours, you always feel that the night you get your five millionth fucking opportunity for that title, it will be the night where TLA can finally call himself: “World Champion.” For months, stretching to every man, woman, and child, they chanted, and they still do. To this day, they chant: “TLA! TLA! TLA! TLA! TLA! TLA! TLA!” as if they’re a fucking league of parrots. They chant, and chant, and chant, and chant; every single waking moment they chant for your name, calling to the mountaintops. But every time - and I do mean EVERY TIME - it dies down, turning into silence as if the breeze of death passed through the arena, every time you are left on your back, your shoulders down on the mat for a three count. Your fans, the TLArmy tell me to believe in the hype, to join the #TLAHypeTrain; they tell everyone that they can see to believe in your name, your brand, your legacy. I refuse, but they persist, as they attempt their best to tell the entire world of the adventures of TLA, and how this time, this time he’ll do it. It must be this time, how couldn’t it be? How couldn’t it be, after everything that’s happened to this poor soul? You tell yourself in your mind that tonight will be the night, where you will be able to not only go through that glass ceiling, but shatter it, and grab that piece of leather and gold that lies at the end of the room. Every single time, you tell yourself that same old story of never giving up, of never standing down. And every single fucking time, you take yet another blow to your ego, and another shattered dream in your hands. I can never be able to truly ride on the hype train, for it is a train that’s always doomed to collide with the harsh wall of reality. But who am I to speak - I’m arguably a failure too, aren’t I? I’ve been given opportunities just like yours, and I’ve failed to capitalize on so many of them, just like you. Not only that, but unlike me, you’ve actually won championships. The New Breed title, one I chased early on in my career but because I was stuck in the hollow shell of a destroyer, I was unable to capture, and the Interwire title, a title I’ve never chased and one I don’t intend to, but it doesn’t change the fact that you obtained it. I can’t take those accomplishments away from you, or the legacy you’ve built up to this point. By all means of logic and cognitive brain function, you should be the clear victor in this match because of everything you’ve achieved, but in this world? No, no, no - this world is rapid. It is ever-changing, ever-growing, and dangerous. You don’t know what will happen, when it will happen, why, or how. I believe that to this day, but last week that belief took hold too much of me. I thought that I could knock Jamie off his pedestal, but little did I realize how wrong and fucking stupid I was. But this...this isn’t a match against the World Champion. This is a battle between two men who desperately need to regain momentum heading into Road to Redemption, two men who will battle to see who will regain the fire and the passion they had. A battle between you and me, two men who stand on the same side of the river crossing, but only one of us will be able to cross that; and I know damn well in my heart it won’t be you who crosses that edge. Yeah, I’ll admit I’ve fallen. I’ve been a failure, I know what it feels like to be at the bottom of the barrel scraping for even an ounce of fucking decency to rise back up, but there’s a difference between you and me, TLA: Only one of us ACTUALLY takes the initiative to change. To evolve. To become a better version of yourself each and every single time you step out from those curtains and the lights beating down upon you; whether or not you fail doesn’t matter, what matters is how you take that and respond to it. Do you crumble and break under the pressure? Or do you change and become the diamond in the rough? I, and ONLY I, am the one who actually adapts. Not you. “I never give up! I never stop fighting!” Noble words from a noble man, a fine rhetoric spit by a true warrior, but be wary - take those words with a grain of salt, for all your talk of never breaking under pressure by your own hand, for every time you attain an opportunity like the one you had at Burning Desire and Ground Zero, those words become meaningless once you realise that TLA doesn’t change. He doesn’t change with time, even when the Winds of Change breeze past this company, he stays flatlined. He stays constant as La Pantera Sexual, the hero of the people, unchanging and unfazed even when reality bitch slaps him in the face. Unlike me, you don’t evolve or improve to be something better. You fall, then you come back and push. Pushing harder than you ever have before, and when it all seems fine and well, you’re shot backwards once again. But even then, you still push. Pushing, and pushing, and pushing, and every single fucking time, it gets you. You push, you get knocked back. Every time.

It’s not tenacity anymore, it’s stupidity.

You’re not an undying, indomitable fighter - you’re a worm who wiggles in the ground, and just doesn’t want to fucking die.

I am by no means discrediting your skills in that ring, or your will to keep on fighting even when times look bleak/ Truly, you have an admirable, a desirable will, but it gets to a point….where you start to wonder when will it end? When will the chip you harbor over your shoulder be finally relieved? It’s as if a knife has been stuck in your gut, and it has been left there, and you haven’t managed to get it out. It seeps into your skin, the blood flowing down. You can feel the pain, you know it’s slowly killing you, but you can’t take it out no matter how fucking hard you try. That’s when all your thoughts become “When? When will TLA pay his dues, and finally achieve that goal of becoming a true great? When will the failures stop?” A dagger of which its edge is fine and jagged, impaled into you with no hope of getting it out. You beast strong, you feast long, but you can only go so far before you drop down onto your knees and start to become desperate in the face of death, in the face of someone like me. Both of us want this win, nothing more than to be the one to go into the eleventh Road to Redemption with a head full of steam, charging like a bullet train, but only one can emerge from the ashes. Only one of us can be the one to stand over the unconscious body of the other, and in my heart, and in yours, you know very fucking well it’s me. I can’t let last week be the lasting impression of me. I can’t let that be the image people think when they think of The Raven, and I can’t let you run amok with your hands raised high up in the air. On Voltage, you will stand in the ring across a desperate, and hungry man who is absolutely ready to fucking rip you apart. A man who respects you enough to not torture you, but is also a man who will be ready cut through you when it is eventually needed. If not this week, if not the week after that, then next month. Next year. The next decade, who the fuck cares? For eventually, the killing blow will land. And you will end, the same old TLA, spitting the same old words, the same old tired phrase. You will end, blissful and ignorant of the entire world crumbling around you.

The beast is dead. The feast is gone.

And TLA will never learn.

Bohemian Rhapsody

Hi, before I start talking about my upcoming match on Empire this week, I want to talk about something that is much worse than me. And that is about the latest tragedy that occurred in Las Vegas. As one of EAW’s gun enthusiast, I am appalled by the actions of that man to take a right I have fought to protect to kill and slaughter our own fellow Americans. I know I get a bad reputation as a person that prefers to use a gun, I understand that people feel threatened by the idea that I can just pull one up and unload on anyone and everyone, but I can assure you that I am just as confused by what has been allowed to be taken place. Please do not let that man speak for gun nuts such as myself. For I take great pride in my ability to use a gun well and responsibly and going through the proper steps to earn that right to carry these firearm. Yet I do not, do not, understand why anyone would be allowed purchase multiple semi-automatic firearms with ease, when in reality, all people really need are guns that require manual use and controls to defend themselves. I hold our lawmakers responsible that condone the NRA to whisper into their ears, preventing stricter gun controls and restrictions that can limit which arms can be purchasable. Imagine how many less lives would be taken if that gunman would had to manually reload his ammo after his gun runs out, giving people a chance to react and protect themselves. Once again, I am ashamed of our politicians who are even as going as far to make laws that makes it easier to purchase silencers to go along with our firearms. How fucking crazy is that? As a former sniper for the US military, once again, I took great pride in firing the one shot I had to take and the guns I have used in my youth were really just a hobby for my dad and I to bond. And chances are, I’m not going to drop my love for guns because it’s a sensitive issue. But at the same time, I don’t feel I should be a target because politicians make it easy for cowards to purchase firearm that can carry a ton of bullets and reload itself in an instance. I'm not some wack job trying to be Jacob Senn. Sorry, I mean the Punisher. I, too can feel and sympathize with all sides. I abhor these senseless act of violence. So if possible, if my opponents would refrain from targeting my love for guns, I'd appreciate that. So please, pray for the victims of these attacks and continue to follow the footsteps of the heroes doing all they can to help one another get through this tragic event. And please, speak with your congressman, don’t take away the right to bear arms, but simply make it a more through process to earn the right to carry one or even go as far as limiting the amount of ammo a gun can carry before requiring a reload. I mean, no offense, but the mentally ill and drunk such as myself should not be allowed to carry a gun. But once again, let us take a moment of silence for the victims and their family.

………………

Thank you. Now let us get back to entertaining you all. So I’m not going to lie. I’m excited. I’ve had the chance to face each and every single one of those women in that match atleast once, but nothing as close as personal as this. After all, April Song and I had our encounter at Pain for Pride X. We even had a moment together from solder to solder. Comrades to comrades, despite being on opposite sides. And I have to say, it will be good to see you again. And then we have Megan Raine and Sydney St. Clair, whom it wasn’t that long ago that I faced them at Manifest Destiny and I lost. What can I say? I’m just not that good, and I’m sure everyone is already placing their bet on black, white, yellow, whatever color they are instead of Red. I know looking at that match, no one is expecting or counting on me to win. After all, you saw the EAW 2k18 roster review. 72 Overall, which I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the lowest score. After all, apparently, “I’m the worse.” Not the definition that I was aiming for, but I won’t deny I’m stepping into that ring this week with the least experience in a pro-wrestling ring. And people are going to use that to put me down. But you know what? Fuck that noise, because my experience on the field and life has gotten me this far so far, and I think I’m doing pretty good. No proper formal training, self-taught watching others, and I’m still out there taking risks and looking back with no regrets. I know amateurs would take a swing at someone that is clearly better than them, and then regret it, but for me, I’m happy to take all my shots and haven’t looked back since. And here we are, me, what people have said to be the worse wrestler in EAW so far, getting a chance to step up with the big wigs for a “unique opportunity.”

No, this isn’t going to be some delusion where I’m to think I’ve gotten so good to mix it up with the best. I’ve said it before, and I’ve said it again. I know I’m being set up to lose. Funny how life feels that way, no? Well, it’s probably just me then, but it’s not hard for people to understand why I act the way I do. After all, what good is a soldier if all you are going to do is send them marching to their death, but even then, you don’t refuse orders. Instead, you go to the front line and you prove them wrong by coming back alive. Even better if the job is done. I’m not going to lie. My journey here so far has been rough. With every match I’m in, I feel threatened by either being in a match that is too easy that is bores me to tears or a match that is too much to handle. Almost each match is there to make me question if it worth it, almost as if “do you want to leave? You’re never going to move up beating chumps and losing to champs.” And the truth is, I know it’s only going to get harder from here.

But I want it. I need it. I crave it. Its more than a paycheck now. Because despite all the bull crap I’ve been through, being booked half a month to occupied space, atleast I have been given an opportunity to be heard. I have been given a chance to speak and say what is what on my mind, as outrageous and vulgar it may be. I’ve been allowed to be me, and at what expense? Getting my ass handed to me by people that are clearly better than me? No shame there. I thrive on competition like that. I thrive on people looking down at me all so that one day, I can rise among the ranks and say “I told you so.” Yeah, it’s not the most refined or matured goal to aim for. But this is pro-wrestling we are talking about, where people get in fights for a lot less. This for me a home, and whether people want me here or not, sorry assholes, I’m here to stay. Keep telling me to leave. Keep telling me to stay away, but guess what, I’m not fuckin’ Megan Raine who would leave because she is sad. Boo-hoo, I have depression. Waaaah. Whatever her story was. I don’t care. It had to be pretty bad is she is running to Keelan for comfort. I’m not here to chase dreams like Sydney St. Clair, because dreams aren’t real. After all, the friendship of Sydney and Megan didn’t last long did it? Reality hits pretty hard doesn’t it? Bitches, all of them, but atleast I’ll tell you that straight to your face instead of attacking you from behind. And I’m not here to do a bidding of some stupid employer that isn’t even brave enough to show their face and hide behind that one Asian Disney Princess. You work for Mickey Mouse, don’t you? I knew I should never trust that high pitched suspicious looking piece of shit. Pacifing Empire? Gotta admit, gotta give them credit for using one of the PC friendly poster child for their goal, but going with the name “April Song.” Kind of cliché, isn’t it?

Any who, I suppose I should give my best talk about “how I will win.” Kind of hard to take back after stating the obvious that I have the least experience in this match going in, but hey, it’s a fatal four way. Anything can happen, and I might just slip under the radar while everyone is trying to kill one another. Perhaps I’ll use a military tactic, but that wouldn’t be fun, now would it. All I can say is this. I want that opportunity, because as tough as this match is going to be, I’m sure whatever is to come, would be a more worth challenge. And adding the word “unique” on top of that is the cherry on top, because it just means all eyes will be one whoever wins it, because no one else will have it. I don’t want to sound like an asshole, buuuuuuuuttt I’m going to win and keep that all to myself. Because no, I don’t want someone as new as Sydney to get in way over her head after debuting in less than a month, or Megan Raine returning thinking she can just take any spot she likes. And as much as I don’t like April Song, she might be the only person I’d like to see win this besides me, but I sure as hell ain’t going to make it easy for her. I’m just going to continue to give my best, and do so with the most arrogant smirk on my face, and grab that ‘W’ like its Jamie O’Hara’s ass. That’s right, I want that win so badly. I’d say I’d put my body on the line for it, but in this business, I suppose we are all already doing that. But damn it, I want my moment to shine. I’m sick of people leaving me out and only putting me in because you need extra players to make people look good. And someday, and you never know when, it may just back fire on them. You might think, pff, they’ll beat Revy, and everything will go according to plan, but I’ve proven that I am a quick learner, that I am ruthless and competent in the ring, as well as surprising people when I was able to cooperate with Daisy. Because everyone thinks “Revy isn’t a team player or doesn’t want to learn.” But guess what? I’m a fuckin soldier at heart. I have to work as a unit, and I have to learn to adapt in order to survive! I have what it takes. I might not the prettiest. I might not be the most technically sounds. I might be the worse human being to ever grace the EAW wrestling ring, but no matter what, anyway the wind blows, doesn’t really matter to me. I’ll lose if I submit believe no one thinks I can win or succeed. But sooner or later, my hard work will pay off, and I’ll prove you all wrong. And who knows. This week on Empire, might be sooner than you think.

Re: EAW Promoz! October 3rd 2017, 12:42 am by **Jacob Senn**

They always say that history repeats itself and that those who cannot remember history are doomed to echo that history once more, but what history is the one to be repeated?

Hurricane Hawk is a man that’s at a fork in the road of his career where two paths of history that he has walked along before are set before him. The first road is the path of glory from a time that has almost been forgotten. This is the road that he traveled along the side of men like CM Banks and Y2Impact as a part of Generation Genesis, the road where he was able to be known as Mr. Cash in the Vault, and the road where became EAW World Heavyweight Champion after the bridge was burned between them. This has been a road that Hurricane Hawk has been chasing on his struggle, leaving and returning to where he was met by failure after failure, and now it's only a few steps away for him to walk towards himself. However, this other road is one that he has become more familiar with in these recent years, almost like a dear friend that comforts him when the struggle is too much for him. After constantly battling to make his point and be known as the man that he wants to be, he finally throws his hands up to tell the world that he’s had enough and takes the walk out of this brand to make his leave once more. History has been known to repeat itself, even to those that know this fact are victim of the vicious cycle that it has been known to throw us in, but the matter is that we are able to choose what cycle we can be thrown into. In this qualifying match that we have been placed inside for Dynasty, you see this as an opportunity to capitalize on the resurgence that has been able to be created from the elitists of your generation that have returned and claimed championship gold for themselves. Prince of Phenomenal was able to become EAW National Elite Champion at the tragic expense of Stark, Scott Diamond wore the crown of EAW Hardcore Champion when he rid the brand of Zack Crash only to flounder at the challenge of Darkane, but you hope to find a more fruitful venture to seize. You have it in your mind that because of your past history, because you cashed in a case to become a champion, that you will be able to return to that glory that you basked in so long ago. That is the history that you hope will be repeated once more, the moments of fleeting glory that you had when you made a name for yourself as EAW World Heavyweight Champion, but that doesn’t mean it will be the history that you create on Dynasty. You’ve been known to the world to be a constant failure in these past number of years that you’ve made your way back into the company, remaining stagnant as you stand there in hopes of regaining some sort of prestige back into your name, only to leave when everything gets tough and have to restart once more. The recent memory of you has been a forgettable one, Hawk, because it has been one of loss and suffering. Nothing has been able to turn in your favor and from someone who has been walking through the same road, I understand the struggle that you’ve been going through. The world is not a kind place, it doesn’t placate to the desires that you cling onto to happen for you, but that doesn’t prevent you from having that hope. The hope that you cling onto finally transforms into an obsession, a desire that has grown so strong that nothing else in the world matters to you, and everything will be discarded for the chance to make that hopeful dream become a reality. Does that happen to strike a chord with you, Hawk? It should. For the hopeful dreamer is what I see when you speak towards me and with that condescending tone that you have been using during it, I would have assumed that you could recognize the hypocrisy in the statement that you made. My obsession might have prevented me from being known as Mr. Cash in the Vault, but your obsession has prevented you from coming close to doing anything of relevance in the recent history of this company.

I understand the sentiment that you have that I will ruin this opportunity to be in the EAW Answers World Championship Elimination Chamber Match for the sheer reason that my obsession has cost me matches in the past. It cost me a Dynasty match against Darkane that led to his rise towards the EAW Hardcore Championship, it cost me the Cash in the Vault case against Nico Borg to where I could have certainly been able to cash in the opportunity when I saw fit, but my desire to make sure that the injustices that have been delivered unto me are punished! The injustice of having the chance to be EAW Answers World Champion that was taken away from me in the likes of Nico Borg and Nasir Moore will be corrected, the injustice that I have been dealt with of this recent losing streak to my career with be dealt with when I enter the ring with you at Dynasty, and the greatest injustice of them all in the humiliation that I was forced to endure at the hands of Mr. DEDEDE will be met with punishment. It has become what drives me in this business, more than the success of this brand that has become apathetic towards me and my desires, after all that I have given towards it. It has become a dire need for me to be able to deliver this punishment more than I need to see this place thrive because if I were able to get my vengeance at the cost of Dynasty, I would burn this brand TO THE GROUND IN ORDER TO GET IT! If my legacy as one of the best to stand in this roster is at stake to be able to claim retribution for what happened to me during these past few months, I wouldn’t care IF IT WAS ALL GONE UP IN SMOKE AND DESTROYED! I would give whoever wanted to destroy it the lighter and gasoline to make it burn! My cause is to deliver punishment to those who have given me injustice and there’s no man that has committed a more grave injustice than what Mr. DEDEDE has done to me! That’s why I must do whatever it takes to make a statement towards him and show him that the man that he walked over at Pain for Pride X, he’s not finished with him. Not by a long shot. I’ve attempted to call him out with a Spear, tried to make him look in the direction of the man that gave him one of the biggest fights of his career with The Wings of Hell, but now I’ve come to the conclusion that the only way to get his attention is through gold. The only reason I got his attention for Pain for Pride X was because of the EAW Interwire Championship and I have seen that he needs a bigger prize for me to flaunt in his face to goad him into a rematch. You tell me this, Hurricane Hawk, what bigger prize is there on Dynasty than the EAW Answers World Championship? Believe this obsession will prove to be my Achilles’ heel like all the men that have come before you. Find yourself in the prime position to create a resurgence in your career because the truth is that the resurrection that you desire to have won’t happen at my expense! Give me whatever fight you want to bring, give me a man that wants to walk into Dynasty like he did when he walked down the ramp on an episode of Showdown to cash in his Cash in the Vault case to be crowned EAW World Heavyweight Champion! A matter of fact, why don’t you walk into this match like you did when you fought your mentor in CM Banks at King of Extreme of 2011? For let me remind you, those that don’t remember history are doomed to repeat it and much like you are when you entered that match, you will be met with a wave of disappointment to drown yourself in. For I’m not a legend that will be depleted from a war with another to seize an opportunity against, you can’t cash some case in on me to get the victory that you’ve been waiting for years to have to your name, but I’m a man devoted to the ideal of gaining retribution at ANY COST! Right now, I’m a man with nothing to lose anymore and I want you to know this, what happens when you stand against a man like that? Personally, I believe you’re about to walk on a familiar path.

For time is a flat circle and history does repeat itself, but your historic road to walk down will be one of loss and suffering, not of glory.

EMPIRE DEVELOPMENTAL PROMO - INTERVIEW W/ MAX A. MILLION

In an EAW.com exclusive interview, Max A. Million sits down with the next woman in line for a shot at Consuela Rose Ava's Specialists Championship, Astraea Jordan!

-

(We fade in to the sight of Astraea Jordan and Head Backstage Interviewer, Max A. Million in a backstage interview room. Both sitting across from each other in their respective chairs. Max shuffles the papers in his hands and looks down for a second before looking up at Jordan. She cheerfully smiles at him. Max smiles back before turning to the camera and introducing us to the interview.)

MAM: Hello EAW Universe, I am Max A. Million and I am sat here with a rising star on Empire and the next one up to get a chance at the Specialists Championship.."The Goddess of Justice"..Astraea Jordan. Welcome, Astraea!

(Max turns back around to face her.)

AJ: Thank you, Max! Glad to be here. Heard you got some questions to ask me, hm?

MAM: Indeed I do. Myself along with the EAW fans have some burning questions both about you in the ring and outside of it.

AJ: Ooh, personal questions. Fun, fun.

MAM: First, I'd like to wish you good luck in your match against Consuela. Albeit it isn't official yet, I'd say the fans are excited for this match-up. What made you want to answer Consuela's call for new challengers on last week's Empire?

(Astraea re-positions herself in her seat, sighs, and confidently begins to answer.)

AJ: Since I've come to EAW, Max, I've been telling these girls that the future is now. There's a whole new generation of us coming to the forefront that are hungry and ready to fight to pay our dues and one of them is myself. One of the reasons I am here is to become a champion, so why pass up such an opportunity? I think I can give Consuela her greatest fight yet.

MAM: Well, to some, they do not feel you had the right to answer her challenge due to your record so far. Despite your dominating physical presence, these wins do matter and you only have one out of four.

AJ: I completely understand that. While I've had really good showings, taking W's have alluded me most of the time but I am more determined than ever to work through this rough patch and get on the track I want to be on. I knew as soon as I decided to go out there, people were gonna have something to say about it afterwards. Behind closed doors, too. And I'm fine with that. If said people didn't want me to take this opportunity, maybe they should've went out themselves. No one was stopping them. No one made a damn sound when Kimi Hendrix entered herself into a number one contenders match for the Openweight title, MY match, at that. Or when Chelsea Crowe attacked Kimi and decided she was hot shit and could do whatever the hell she wants right off the bat with no credit to her name so this shouldn't be treated any differently. I saw a chance and I took it. And if anyone has a problem with that, they can talk to me about it.

(She shrugs and smirks. Max looks taken aback at her answer but quickly smiles again.)

MAM: You do have a point there. And I don't think I'd want to have a problem with you, quite frankly. Now, it could be said that both you and Consuela are similar. This is a crowd favorite against another crowd favorite, really. How does this affect your approach to this match since its different from your past ones so far?

AJ: First off, I want to say I love Consuela. She is one of the more respectable prospects here in EAW and on Empire. She is such a pure soul but still one of the best fighters and trash talkers who can back it up! That's something I admire. All of that just means the buildup going into this will be actually enjoyable and not repetitive. How many times have I heard the "you're a new girl, you don't have what it takes to beat the vets yet" and "I've worked harder for this and done more than you" speech already? Damn near every week, Max! It gets tiring, it really does. But I feel like Consuela won't approach this as so. She will actually see me as a legitimate competitor, which is smart on her part I'd say. I can't wait to get in the ring with her and put on a show! I know more people are gonna be behind her because she's the champ, you know, and all that but by the end of it all, I will have gained the respect of ALL in attendance despite their opinions going into it. I'm so excited!

MAM: I can tell! Hopefully the contract signing doesn't end up like the others we've had here in EAW, haha. Now, time for the more fun questions!

AJ: Oh, yay!

MAM: These are all fan questions, so if any of them sound crazy, just know it's not from me!

AJ: Sweet. They can come up with really..creative questions, I know that.

MAM: This first one is from Kylie in Illinois, your home state from what I understand. She asks, "What kind of music do you listen to?"

AJ: Shout out to you, girl. Illinois represent. But this question has kind of a broad answer. I can listen to anything but country, pretty much. I can listen to jazz, rap, rock, death metal, funk, pop, new wave, stuff from the 80's and 90's and even some electronic. But yeah, ABC! ANYTHING BUT COUNTRY!

MAM: I actually very much agree with that last statement there, aha. Next one. Aaron from New York asks, "Who are your favorite fellow elitists on the roster? And not just Empire".

(She ponders this for a few seconds.)

AJ: Well, out of the males, I'm a fan of CM Bank$; he actually helped train me for this comeback, The Triumvirate, TLA, Chris Elite, Moongoose McQueen and Hurricane Hawk. A weird bunch, I know. Out of the girls, I've said this before in promos, but I love Cameron Ella Ava and Heart Break Gal along with Aria Jaxon. I'd like to be ranked up there with all of them one day. And as I said, Consuela is someone I have a lot of respect for.

MAM: Cam is an interesting choice considering your current situation.

AJ: I know but its true! I think the closest I'm gonna get to wrestling her is her sister, but so be it! I love both of the twins, really.

MAM: One more quick question here from Clara. She's from California and she asks, "What do you do in your free time?"

AJ: Oooh. Well, I play a few instruments so I mess around with those when I'm home. I also have a dog. He's a corgi named Remy. I love taking him for walks and all that fun stuff. He's basically the light of my life! Uh, I also, of course, spend lots of time in the gym. I try to get at least one session in every day if I can. That's basically all my free time outside of EAW!

MAM: Anddd that brings us to the end! Thank you so much for sitting down with me today, Astraea, it is much appreciated. Maybe next time I interview you, there'll be a belt with you?

(She laughs and nods her head.)

AJ: We can only hope, Max! That's the plan but not everything goes how we want, you know.

MAM: Of course! Again, thank you!

(Max chuckles, satisfied with her answers today. He puts his papers down somewhere off-screen and stands up to shake hands with Astraea. She follows suit. Astraea then walks out of frame and the camera pans back to a shot of a smiling Max.)

MAM: That's all for now, folks! Remember to tune in every week for new, exclusive interviews with all your favorite EAW stars!

(The scene fades to black.)

BRODY SPARKS VERSUS MADISON KALINE

‟You’re a discredit to that crown. I think you need to listen to your own words babe. I think your mind really enjoys painting pictures of things that you see but other people don't see. I'm blind to bullshit. People don’t see them because they don't exist Madison. I'm glad you're admitting it though you're right, you never considered me a sister you literally only tolerated me and used me to your benefit. You could have been honest with yourself and admit your truth from the beginning, but I guess honesty isn’t something you live by considering the role you’ve been playing in Keelan’s life. You were treating us like the bridesmaids so this victim thing that you're trying to pull, consisting of calling yourself of being a bridesmaid as if you of all people didn't put yourself on this otherworldly pedestal, that you had a created for yourself when you actually did is garbage, quite like yourself. I have to ask, is your crown on a little too tightly?”

‟I may be a waste of skin to you now, but trust me this waste of space and this waste of skin wasn’t a waste when she was racking up a title, and historic moments you take credit for. This waste of space, as you personally know, can cause a lot more damage than you realize. I don't think I'm the hero, never once said that babe. A rat? Oh god, I better go sit in a corner and cry because Madison made fun of my nose, as if that is what matters, but okay, I mean you can call me a rat all you want it really doesn't bother me. Maybe it’s the high school banter that spews from your mouth that had cost you to be in my opinion, running for the bust of the year, but I digress. You can make fun of my nose and you can make fun of my looks but some of us don't need to stoop third-grade insults in order to make a point. I'm going to use the insult you tried using on me, and show how you’re working this self-defense mechanism, on you, just because you became Empress of Elite, it doesn't change the fact that you're still a rat. How am I supposed to respect you or consider you royalty when you were running around with women who you didn't even like for months? You spent so much time, tailing behind Alexis and I when you really felt a certain way about us but you couldn't even say anything to our faces? If anyone is a rat in this scenario it's you. I get it babydoll, I completely understand when someone hates themselves so much that they cast how they feel about themselves onto others. You were the one crawling behind, using us, just sitting in the background making your background noise and now you want to call me the rat? Cute stuff. You should listen to your own advice, once a rat, always a rat. Once a useless, brainless, afterthought, always a useless, brainless, afterthought, just with a new accessory. I never painted myself to be the hero and truthfully, heroes are for people who actually believe in those. If I did believe in those, it would be obvious that I'm my own hero, and I wouldn’t need to be anyone else's hero. Let's be honest Madison, I know it’s hard for you, but just try, you're really trying to make it seem like you rescued Brody Sparks from oblivion when the fact of the matter is the person who came to me, who asked me to be in The Sanatorium, was Alexis and her husband, Eclipse Diemos. You literally had nothing to do with that. As far as I was concerned, I was joining a sorority and you just happened to be rushing for to be in the same sorority. You were a sorority sister, nothing more and nothing less. Quite frankly Madison, you and I were never close. You can claim that you bought The Coven to new heights, but did you? Correct me if I’m wrong- and I know I’m not, but just humor me babe -it was I who captured the first title on our behalf. You were there that night, holding me up as Stephanie placed me on her shoulders. How quickly we forget things. It was I who captured gold, the first to do it within the whole collective of The Sanatorium, it wasn't Madison Kaline. You were in the chamber with me, but you failed to last. During your stint with us, you did nothing. Maybe a mascot. Without or without you, I still would have been in The Coven. Without You Madison, I still would have won the chamber, and by hell or high-water I would have entered that chamber. So realize how wrong you are and how much of an idiot you sound like when you try to call me ungrateful. You can't call me in grateful when I have nothing to be grateful for when it comes to you. If there's anyone that I'm supposed to feel any sort of gratitude for, it is Alexis and Eclipse Diemos, but at the end of the day, no one held a gun to my head forcing me to join The Sanatorium. It was a decision that I made all on my own. An option I could have declined but I didn't. Of course, you would call it brainwashing because none of it benefited you. It's easy to point the finger and say that someone is being brainwashed when they're making the most of an opportunity you couldn't make the most of. You should already know, no one forces me to say or do anything but myself. I've always marched to the beat of my own drum and maybe that's why I was always the standout member of The Coven, it was because I never jumped when someone told me to jump. I never barked when you ordered me to, and I know that had certainly gotten under your skin. I never took orders, everything I did at the end of the day was to ensure that I was on top and that people would respect me regardless if they loved or hated me. Madison maybe it's time for you to take a little bit of responsibility. Look at who is trying to play victim here. We turned our backs on you? I can't really call it that, it was you who decided you wanted to go off on your own and be with your boyfriend. It was you who decided to leave your sisters behind. We didn't kick you out, and trust me if we did kick you out we would have given you the same punishment we gave to Stephanie. Do you think that she is special and she would be the only person to be punished for leaving? You walked away Madison, we didn't force you out, trust me if we forced you out, you would have been damaged severely and you probably would have never even made it to Empress of Elite. What, you think you're so special and you're so high and mighty that we would kick Stephanie out and leave you around knowing that you didn't want to be there? You didn't speak up, you cowardly ran away tucking your tail between your legs. What a surprise there. No one forced you out Madison, but you can continue to say that if that's what makes you sleep better at night.”

‟I'm flattered Madison. I really am thrilled that, I interrupted your coronation last week made you happy, and if that made you happier, well then, me panting your face as red as your hair and me putting you in your place and exploiting you yet again, it's going to make you wet yourself with pure joy. Oh my! Madison admitting the truth, I am truly shocked and flattered. I mean that's exactly why people like you will never get the respect from anyone, or from me. That’s fine babe, you never liked me and you never could ever admit it but of course, now that you have a little bit of power in your hand you want to admit it, but that's okay. I would hate me too if I were you and I had to sit there and play second fiddle to what became the greatest woman on Empire so I completely understand. The sad part is that all of your efforts are going to be null and void. You wished to address the elephant in the room, I guess I shall too. It's always fun when the so-called teacher gets one-upped by the student, I mean according to you, I should be thanking you for everything I have, and if that's the case it's really tragic to see that your student has surpassed you by flying colors. Of course Madison, I love the attention. I love when the spotlight is on me. Why wouldn't I? If the spotlight isn’t on me, then it's going to go to someone else, and once that goes to someone else, they're going to gain a little bit of power and I want that power, I want that recognition. In this line of business, you want the spotlight to constantly be on you. You want it to be around you circulating and radiating around you twenty-four-seven, it's not something I've been shy of admitting. Oh god, this is just great babe, you’re bringing me to my knees as much as Keelan brings you to yours, I am truly laughing, you should give a comedic career a try. Are you really going to sit here and say that I am jealous of your love life? I mean Madison just look at who you come home to and then look at who I come home to. I never want to brag or bring my relationship into my personal business, but since you want to, I was never jealous of you and Keelan. Why would I want some second-rate Voltage elitist when I have Dynasty’s finest? A man, a multiple title holder and a now Hall of Famer. Are you really that delusional that you're trying to make me out to be a bitter woman over a relationship founded on lies and cheating? It's really sad and it's really pathetic. Yes babydoll, I broke the news of your opening your legs for a man who was already spoken for. It's called honesty and I wanted to get inside of Megan's head and it worked. I mean you can thank me for doing that because it got you a match, didn't it? It got you a free-per-view match and it gave you something to do. I love charity. It gave you an extra paycheck in your pocket so you're welcome for that. I personally gave you the gift of sleeping at night with no more guilt, because you were too much of a coward to admit it. It really goes to show how obnoxious and stupid you are. I love when people make my job easier for me, you just continue to show how much of an airhead you are. You think I'm sexually frustrated and it's really sad because I have someone who satisfies me if you want to make it about that, and yes I kissed my beautiful sisters on their lips and you know why? Because it got me a title shot. I get things done and I get things at any cost to make sure that the spotlight is on me and to make sure that I am the one that gets the success and reap the benefits, so of course I'm going to do stuff like that but it's kind of sad because I don't think you realize how stupid you actually sound. You wish to know who I think I am? I don’t think. I know. I'm the woman who had Madison Kaline standing in the shadows for months. The woman who became the longest reigning Specialist Champion. The woman who won and participated in the first all-female Extreme Elimination Chamber. The woman who won and participated in the first women’s inferno match. The woman who put The Coven on the map. That’s who I am babe. Maybe you were something a couple years ago, but you kind of lost your touch.I mean you're not the same woman you were before and you're trying to recreate that person now but you're failing and it's alright Madison not everyone has enough juice to keep the train running. So are we finally getting to the bottom of this Madison? You hate me because I disrespected your authority but who gave you the authority anyway? No one was ever going to have authority over me and I'm sorry that I didn't let you walk over me I'm not Madison Kaline. I don't let people walk over me. I'm sorry but that's just how I'm programmed, that's how I was designed. Madison, I made the sacrifices of learning to work well with other women and it benefited me, I'm a woman who does not play well with others and for a long time I have been and I still am and it may not be with you and maybe that's what hurts you. Maybe you wish that I liked you, maybe you wish that I respected you, maybe that's what really hurts you deep down inside. I respected Alexis, and Cloud before ever giving you a single ounce of respect. I really think we should definitely talk about putting you into Bellevue, because something is seriously messed up with you in the head and I don't mean messed up like you're crazy. I mean messed up that you actually believe the words that come from your mouth. You? You made the division what it is today? I'm sorry but is your name Heart Break Gal? No, I thought so. Is your name Cleopatra? Not that either? I figured so. Is your name Tarah Nova? Nope wrong again. Is your name Cameron Ella Ava, because I don't think it is. You may be one of the longest-tenured women on Empire and that's added to the list of things that bothers you because this woman named Brody Sparks, who came here a year ago is already surpassing you, but you're right this match has been a long time coming. I cannot wait to finally show you why woman like me never needed to respect garbage like you. Trust me Madison, I never sat out to try and prove to be a leader over you, it just happened, it was the natural order that took place because you were weak and you couldn't lead. You were born to be a follower. Maybe I was born to be a leader and even then I still never considered myself leading The Coven, but it's something you wish to believe and that's fine because I wish to believe and I know that come Thursday at Empire I'm going to show everyone exactly why there is a spark in this Division. Why without the spark in this company, this division would die.”

Dynasty Promo #1

Opportunist.

These past few weeks have been such a disgust to me. I mean to even look back and see it has been something that I do not even want to look at it. I thought to myself that I would be on top of things. I thought that I would be taking these steps to get to something that I clearly wanted. The EAW Hardcore Championship was something that I really wanted to step to, but honestly.. this upcoming chance is even better. This chance could help me get to a step that I've always wanted: The EAW Answers World Championship. It has been on the top of my mind since I've stepped into EAW. I've looked at the EAW Answers World Championship and I thought to myself that I could do it.. I could be the next elitist to step to the top and BE the man that everyone has respect for. Now it's something different. These past few years.. the last time I have gotten this opportunity it was 2012. The Road to Redemption I was so close to becoming the next man to get the EAW Answers World Championship until I fell so short. I'm tired of falling short. Time after time, I see myself getting towards these things and I get the opportunity and THEN.. I see myself breaking down on the chance. I cannot do this again. ALL of these chances I EARN and I come to the plate.. striking out. This upcoming Dynasty.. I have one of the biggest opportunities of my career. A chance that will get me exactly to where I want to be if I could just get through mission number one. I step into the ring with a man that I've known for a while.. A man that has been on an obsession.. an ADDICTION.. And not only is this a match.. but this is ANOTHER opportunity that I just can't let slip through my fingers. I step into the ring with Jacob Senn and the winner of the match goes to Road to Redemption to step into the ring with five other men in a danger zone. The Extreme Elimination Chamber is the next step of this process in which is for the EAW Answers World Championship. I looked at myself in the mirror and I asked myself: Are you ready? Are you even ready to step into the ring for your next chance? It seems like EVERY time you get there, you see yourself as ready, but you DON'T COME THROUGH FULLY. I am TIRED of it. Jacob Senn, I'm not stepping up to the plate this time just swinging for strikes, but I'm looking to come through fully with a HOME RUN. This time, we step into this ring and we're going to battle out because this isn't the end of the war. The war ENDS at Road to Redemption when I plan on stepping into a pod and breaking down every dream of each elitist that plans on stepping into that ring with me. Jacob Senn, me and you are a bit similar. We both have had that little obsession that you're going through. You see you're going SO FAR.. that you BROKE your own opportunity to be the holder of the Cash in the Vault, just to send a message to Mr. DEDEDE that BURNT you.

You could have been the man to take away the dream of the person leaving that Extreme Elimination Chamber by CASHING IN, but you ruined it yourself. What kind of message was that? You should send a message to yourself.. AND FOCUS on yourself. You should be grabbing these opportunities but like StarrStan said, you haven't seen a victory in a while. You could possibly take this opportunity and step forward but you would ruin it AGAIN for yourself just to try and send some sort of statement to Mr.DEDEDE who IS NOT EVEN LOOKING AT YOU. How do you focus your addiction on someone that is not even focusing on you? This upcoming Dynasty, I cannot give this opportunity up to you knowing that you are NOT even going to go for it fully. I plan on doing EVERYTHING in my power to make sure that when we step into the ring, we're going to fight, but I am going to be the man to step forward and go to Road to Redemption with the chance of gold. I surely stepped out of the ring this past Dynasty with a victory but that was nothing for me. THIS is what I'm looking for. This is what I LIVE FOR. The EAW Answers World Championship will be mine and I GUARANTEE that when we step into that ring you'll make that mistake that will kill your chances and I WILL jump on it quickly to put you down just like Nico did. Step after step this time, I will not fall. I CANNOT fall. I cannot just keep on stepping up and showing everyone that I AM what I say I am and then just lose my chances time and time again. I have seen myself step out of this business, I have seen myself FIRED from this business but one thing I will not do is give up. I will not quit. This is my last chance to prove myself to everyone that I AM solidified and CEMENTED into this business and MY LEGACY. Jacob Senn let this just be a fair warning, I am going to beat you. This is going to be MY MESSAGE.. no not to Mr. DEDEDE, but every man including the EAW Answers World Champion, that I am COMING. I have been here far too long to see myself fail again. So when you step into that ring with me Senn, come correct. Show me respect, and give me your best, because I know I'm not Ryan Adams, but I sure am going to be the man to embarrass you if your focus is not at the ring.

I'll see you on Dynasty.

Empire Promo #1

"If you win the rat race, you are still a rat."

- Anna Quindlen

Everyone bow down to the royalty that stands before you, everybody bow down to greatness, as I stand before you as the Empress of Elite. After years of being the bridesmaid. Finally I prove to the world that I am exactly who I say I am. I am the Mistress of Death, the most sadistic woman in EAW today. Last week on Empire it was my coronation ceremony it was suppose to be the greatest night in my life, a night where I would be surounded by happiness and people who love me, a night where I put on the crown a symbol for all my hard work that I put into defeating Alexis Diemos in the finals, but of course there was one jealous individual who just had to ruin the moment. There is always that one person who has to make the moment all about themselves. That of course is my former Coven sister Brody Sparks, someone who I am going to be honest now, someone who I never considered my sister at all, just someone who I considered a waste of a space, and waste of skin. Brody please, do not give me all this bullshit that had just spewed out of your mouth. You think you are the hero in all this? You are just a rat, not only do you look like one with your pointed nose, but you have the characteristics of one as well, you have always been a rat always and you will always be a rat. You will do anything for that piece of cheese scrapping that people drop on the floor. You saw your opportunity to be the big wheel in a group, you saw my struggles so you decided to join and kick me while I was down, you don't know a fucking thing about what I did for that group because you would be nothing without me, you wouldn't have had a family to join without me. I brought The Coven to new heights, I sacrificed things for the for the family something that you don't even know, something you have never done nor will ever do. (Madison shakes her head) and you actually have the balls to sit there and pretty much piss all over my legacy and say that I was nothing to The Sanatorium, you are so ungrateful and blinded by your own ego that you can't give credit when credit is due. Oh and yeah you came in and you took all my spotlight I am not even going to deny it like you would, I will check my ego at the door and man up, and while I have a chip on my shoulder because of that how you treated me like I was some fucking underling, you are not the reason for my downfall, absolutely not so I hate to break to you because I know you think you had that to your credit. But the thing of it is, I had already been on my downward spiral way before you joined, why do you think Alexis even brought you in? She saw the writing on the wall for me, you said I don't see us as sisters just someone who can hold my back and that is funny because you just described everything Alexis is. I can't believe you are still under the impression that The Sanatorium is a wonderful loving home where everyone loves each other, bitch are you that naive? For a long time I was brainwashed by Alexis and the rest of The Sanatorium just like you are. I thought they all had my back, I was their hero when I joined and when I was winning matches, but as soon as the bad luck started to set in, and I would lose match after match, my confidence was at an all time low, I hated myself, I hated my life, where were all of you? My so called brothers and sisters who said they had my back. Quickly you all forgotten about me. It's a what have you done for me lately sport and I get that. But for a group of people who say they are family to just turn their back on me like that? That is fucked up, if anyone stabbed anyone in the back it was all of you to me.

While I was a little ticked off at you, Brody for disrespecting my moment, there is a part of me that is happy you interrupted my coronation last week because now I can finally get my chance to wrestle you one on one, no teams, no families, no distractions just me against you this week on Empire, I finally get the chance to shut you up and rip out your fake blonde hair out of your stupid fucking head. But most importantly I finally get to address the big elephant in the room between us that everyone wants me to address, fact is I just don't like you Brody I think I made it pretty clear to you during our time together in The Coven passive aggressively albeit but nevertheless. I hate everything about you, your lack of consideration for others, the fact you think you are all high and mighty like you have done anything of importance. Your loud mouth obnoxious personality that makes people want to vomit, that same personality that makes you have to let people know you are in a room because you are just so desperate for the attention that you will do and say anything just to be outrageous and grab headlines. Just like your little barbed wire dildo thing (Madison shakes her head in disgust). I got an idea for you since you are so clearly jealous of my love life, I mean it was you that was the first one to break the news of Keelan and I dating each other, it was you that made Megan Raine go psycho on me and since you brought up Keelan's name again before, it's so clearly obvious you are so desperate for a man in your life, you and your sexual innuendos all the time are so tiresome, you are so clearly sexually frustrated and everyone can see it, I mean why else would you want to kiss your so called sisters on the lips like a horny teenage make out party when you first joined The Sanatorium. I mean let's think about it for a second sisters making out with sisters, that is straight up incest you freak. So I got a perfect idea for you Brody, since you like sexual things like a lonely 30 year old virgin, why don't you take your little barbed wire dildo and stick it so far up your vagina you would probably really enjoy that. Hell doctors will get wind of it and start using it for abortions you could make millions off that thing! (Madison laughs) I mean really just who the hell do you think you are Brody? You think just because you were Specialist Champion for a few months that you are some EAW legend or something? I got news for you, you are nothing, you are nothing compared to me, you are the equivalent to dog shit that is on the bottom of my shoe, the main reason I hate you is because of how you treated me when you first joined up in The Sanatorium I was the leader and you just disrespected my authority, you treated me as if I was some underling rookie who didn't know anything. The only reason I took a step back and let you lead was because I was just trying to be a team player, I didn't want their to be dissension within the family, so I stepped back, yet another sacrifice I made for the family. What sacrifices did you make other than being a selfish bitch? Only reason you were Specialist Champion for so long was because of me, like you said I was your lackey right? You would have lost that championship within the first week of reign if it wasn't for me. You are on the same level as Haruna. You are all talk and nothing else, look at what I have done in this company, I have done more than winning one championship, I am a former Vixens Champion, the current Empress of Elite tournament winner, I helped mold the women's division into what it has become today. I am one of the longest tenured women on Empire and you want to spit in my face like that. This match between the two of us has been a long time coming especially for me. I for one cannot wait to kick your ass all over the ring and prove to you and everyone else who thinks you were deserved to be the leader over me. I will see you soon my "sister".

VANTAGE POINT -- MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE.

If anyone wanted to look for threads linking my last few matches together, they wouldn’t have to look far. As recently as Manifest Destiny, Azumi saw fit to step up to the plate and challenge me for my Women’s World Championship. This, however, was clearly something that didn’t sit well with Haruna, as Azumi’s tunnel vision concerning the title match seemed to be off-putting for her. She firmly believed that Azumi’s supposed duties as her wife -- acting as a crash test dummy during her match with Tarah, to help her secure a win -- should’ve come before Azumi’s very real ambitions of becoming champion. Then, Savannah, my one-time Territorial Invasion partner, was standing opposite me with hopes of rapidly ascending up the Empire ladder after an upset win over me. For me, it was another night in the main event. Another day at the office, if you will. For her, the best case scenario was a sunny outcome, one where the entire world was forced to stand up and take notice of the upstart who pulled off a near-miracle and put the champion away. In everything that’s happened to the four of us lately, we’ve all had choices to make.

Does Azumi keep trying to chip away at her goal of wanting to be taken as a serious threat on Empire, or does she cave under her wife’s selfish, whiny demands?

Does Savannah become dejected that giving it her all against me wasn’t enough, or does she keep that megawatt smile intact and keep pushing forward?

Does Haruna continue going through the motions on this unremarkable career trajectory, or does she rediscover the passion that once made her a driving force in this division?

As for me, do I throw my all into all of these conflicts that dot the way, or do I turn my line of sight toward the citadel looming ominously on the horizon?

It’s difficult to call this just a throwaway tag team match when all these wires are overlapping, potentially zapping anyone who doesn’t watch their step. Yeah, the participants are a common thread in and of themselves, but a recurring theme here, for me, is how two people can be standing in the exact same spot looking at the exact same shit and see two completely different things. Azumi and Haruna are both looking ahead to the same eventual one-on-one match, and what Azumi sees as a necessary -- but heart-wrenching -- victory that she’ll need to garner, she’s only doing it because she wants so badly to rise up this brand’s ladder. An unmotivated Haruna sees this as her falling on the sword for Azumi, giving her this parting gift of a rejuvenating win before saying “screw this place” once and for all. In all that I said to her last week, Savannah mistakenly thought I was being mean to her. My self-assuredness was off-putting. The fact that I said right from the beginning that I intended to win no matter how hard she tried wasn’t something she anticipated hearing, apparently. But it was never malicious. I go into every match with the same attitude, refusing to compromise how I see myself for any opponent, no matter how formidable they might be. To her, that victory could’ve been a well-timed jumping-off point for her career. Of course, I knew the blow that would be dealt to her by losing to me, but I’d have been crazy to put her feelings before doing what I know has to be done. I’m a champion. Every outing is a chance to reaffirm why I got to the point in the first place. I don’t get downtime. I don’t get to rest on my laurels. I called it par for the course, she called it something of a betrayal. For the women in this match, varying vantage points have meant everything as of late.

January 10, 2016 was the first time Azumi and I ever met in the ring. Looking back on it, I guess it wouldn’t have been wrong of the world at large to view that match as being no different from any other one. Not necessarily an earth-shattering meeting between two competitors, they’d assume. But underneath the surface, there was more going on than anyone could’ve guessed. We each had our own reasons for wanting to win that night and we knew that we couldn’t really afford to come away with a loss there, even in an “uneventful” match that didn’t seem to have any far-reaching implications. Azumi was brand new at that time, enduring as rough a rookie month as anyone’s ever had. Loss after loss after loss kept coming her way. Of course I couldn’t help but feel for the girl. It’s tough to have to watch someone dig themselves out of a hole like that, especially when they’re just starting out. But just as the case was with Savannah, that’s just something that had to be pushed to the back of my head if I wanted to walk away victorious. Back then, I was an Empress. One coming off a bloody, crushing loss at Road to Redemption, and now that I was finally cleared to compete again, I was dying to reaffirm in people’s minds why I’d been having the insane rookie year that I was in the midst of. Azumi was unsuccessful in beating me that night, and I suppose that was the starting point between us that led us both to Manifest Destiny. By the time we got there, we weren’t the wide-eyed upstarts anymore. We both had more miles on us. I became the proud champion, she’d been jaded by the struggles she’d endured along the way and walked into our most recent clash with a pretty noticeable chip on her shoulder. For days leading up to that title match, I found myself rolling my eyes at a woman who insisted I wouldn’t have gotten to this point without favors and privilege. But oh, how things change. The hand of the woman I shook after that match was no longer weighed down by anger and bitterness. The sting of defeat hurt her, maybe, but the knowledge that she’d just gotten a taste of the success that she’d waited so long for washed away everything else. If anyone had told me not long ago that I was teaming with you, Azumi, I wouldn’t necessarily have been enthused. Now, I don’t expect us to be best friends, but I will acknowledge that things have changed. You were never gonna chart your path to the top by going through me, but you’ll get there somehow, someway. With this renewed will to succeed, the sky is the limit for you. Stay focused and hungry, and there will be little you can’t accomplish. The woman that I contended with at Manifest Destiny? I hope she sticks around for a long time. I hope she shows up on Empire, too. I know what that woman can do. She’ll be a hell of a teammate to have.

No, Haruna, you’re not dead. Kicking somebody into a coffin don’t mean shit if they’re still up, walking around, and bitching. Tarah’s ceremonial “burial” of you was just that -- ceremonial. It was a cute little way of dressing up a grudge match and adding some sort of heavy aesthetic to it. Regardless of how big and overarching it may have felt, that match was just representative of y’all closing a chapter. Maybe part of you wishes you’d just hung it up after that, and then you wouldn’t have to phone it in now. What the fuck am I talking about, though? You were phoning it in long before then, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. If you’ve really given up, if you find yourself constantly questioning why it is that you’re here, then leave. There’s only so many ways you can spin this unaffected, too cool to care shpiel. For you, leaving would’ve made way more sense. But for reasons even you don’t seem to quite understand, you’re still here, and you can’t bring yourself to act like it. Sticking around just for Azumi won’t get you anywhere. She’s looking past you, no matter what she says. I’m sure she loves you, but you being here wouldn’t make or break whatever plans she’s got on deck. You’re not doing either of you any favors by being in the state that you’re in. Isn’t the catatonic bullshit a chore? Doesn’t it take more effort to mope than it does to dig down beneath the surface a bit and go back to being the woman who used to be a pillar of this division? Your heart is back at the photoshoots and shit that you left behind, but the rest of you is trudging into Empire to take this loss. I like to think that, unless you change drastically, you’ll never be the “test” that you claim to be. Not for Azumi, not for me, or anyone else. To beat Haruna Sakazaki now doesn’t mean reaching down deep and bringing out your best to take down a passionate warrior who refuses to give up. It means toppling a shell of her former self without too much effort. I’d say this loss would hurt, but I don’t know if that’s entirely true. Who knows if you even feel anything anymore.

If I know Savannah, when she speaks, I know that she'll promise not to give up and to not let these recent losses define her. She'll promise to press on, vowing to win this match to prove that she can contend with Empire's best and brightest. And as we continue to take opportunities to address each other, I don't anticipate that much will change. Azumi will keep saying that this win is a step in the right direction toward shattering her own personal glass ceiling. Haruna will continue to maintain that she's doing Azumi a favor by staying around and accepting her challenge. In no departure at all from my usual M.O., I'll be in this to win, no matter what. Still, all of this falls away when the bell rings. These words won't have much to do with that eventual outcome, the one that Azumi and I are promising to bring about. We never came into this with plans of accepting anything less than a victory. In a match of opposing vantage points, the only one that matters is ours.

EAW Promoz! - Page 29 Tumblr_owoz2cflTN1qgexrvo3_1280

The scene opens in one of Haruna's photoshoots as Haruna is there while the cameraman is taking her pictures. It skips for a few moments until the end of the shoot as the crew is clapping for her, some of them are giving Haruna a drink and a coat to cover her body. Haruna's assistant gives the schedule list to Haruna to take a look and while she's looking at it, she lets out a long sigh.

Haruna Sakazaki: When it is safe for me to say "Screw this place", you came to me like giving me a glimpse of vision that I still belong here. When I am buried in the casket, this body is still alive but everything inside it has already died. I am disappointed..... like really disappointed of every single one whom I love so much turning their back on me. Never look and appreciate my hard work. I am running out of ideas! I don't know what should I do to make all of their satisfaction fulfilled. I never complain about anything, yet people still call me somebody who bitched a lot. I realize and always be.... there's a lot of people more deserving than me. Heck, there are also a lot of complainers out there who thinks they deserve to go to a higher place without even trying. Or somebody who thinks they are here longer than everybody so they demand the "seniority" treatment. I am here longer than most of the people in this brand but am I complaining about where I am right now? Am I bitching about all those new people keep getting title shots while I have to struggle in this bottom place? Not even a single mind that I am thinking that way. I gotta say I don't even care about title shots. Screw them, I feel like there's no point fighting for it right now. I let every single one of those girls who think they deserve to get all those opportunities. What do I want here? What does this "complainer" wish in this place? Just one simple wish..... I just want every single one who watches me like what I do. I want everyone look at my match as a memorable one, as an unforgettable one. A simple wish, yet this wish seems difficult for the mind of those people. No matter how hard I try, no matter how difficult I struggle, I can't seem to reach it. Even though I won that match. They will never appreciate me. But I get all those boos, even louder than before if I came as a winner.

Haruna Sakazaki: So I gave up..... I don't want to show all my passion, all my fighting spirits to all of them because I think it's no use at all. I begin to forget all my missions here and try to find another way to make my dream come true. They don't deserve everything that I have in here.... I don't mind leaving this place right now actually. I just here, only for you, Azumi! You laid an open challenge to me, somebody who is running out of the passion to wrestle in this place. For what? All these things are just simply unnecessary. You should go fighting for another opportunity for women's or specialists title, just whatever, I don't really care instead of challenging me. I don't even want to fight for a title shot so this is just simply waste your time.... waste MY time. You want me to push you to the limit so you will be ready for another title shot? Are you going to use me as my stepping stone for your next challenge? I can do that to you.... You are talking about the change of heart and telling everyone where your heart belongs to. Let me tell you where my heart is..... I left it. Somewhere, to a place behind my back that I never walk there anymore. That Haruna is dead..... already dead, thanks to all those people who never appreciate my appearance and performance here. But there's still hope. There's still hope for me to keep fighting on that ring again.... and to grab that hope, I don't want to look around. My eyes will be focusing on you, and just you. For my sake? No, it's for your sake! I am not sure that I can bring the passion back here again but I still can give you one last test. If you still can't destroy me, too bad..... just like I disappointed with all those people, I will be disappointed on you too. Eh, I don't even....

Haruna returns the list to her assistant as she storms out of the shoot scene, probably get her mood ruined.

Re: EAW Promoz! October 2nd 2017, 6:28 am by **Nasir Escobar**

What a match. That’s all I have to say. The fight of my life. The Pizza Boy and Eclipse Diemos pushed me to my absolute limits and forced every bit of strength I had within out. All of my latent abilities were drawn out as a means to put myself above the both of them in the hopes of being crowned the new Elite Answers Wrestling Answers World Champion. In the end, the combined powers of the both of them were simply too much for me to handle and I failed. But life goes on. All the credit in the world to the Pizza Boy for a successful retain yet again. And as for Eclipse Diemos, if he doesn’t get another shot to enter the chamber match for Road To Redemption...as much as I despise his ideology on the world and everyone in it...he has proven himself time and time again to be one of the best this brand has to offer and one of a few who are truly deserving of one of these six spots. Which now leads me to myself. After being absent from Dynasty last week here I am back in the swing of things. In the main event ready to advance to the next chapter of my career and make up for many mistakes I’ve made in my past. But let’s take things one step at a time huh? So this Dynasty Main Event is a match I never expected to be a part of anytime soon. Going on and on with a young man I never thought I’d take on under these circumstances. Target is a very talented young man who actually has the right idea what this business is about and the correct perspective of the world and all of us who reside in it. He has the proper analysis of what’s right and wrong. Now that has nothing to do with the matchup itself, other than the fact that as two men whom are like minded and have a similar respect for one another. Not to say that our opinions of each other are perfect by any means. But it seems that Target Smiles has been under quite a bit of stress as of late. Now I might be wrong about this but it seems that he’s under the impression that I might not respect him as a competitor or actually believe he’s a real threat to me. Just to clarify Target I don’t think you’re a failure...I just believe that your mind and your judgement is clouded at the moment. Target Smiles seems to be a bit too concerned with what everyone else has to say about him. Now Target I’m about to hit you with a dose of knowledge that was passed down to me by many of the legends in this industry. It’s not the man who becomes world champion that gets the respect of everyone else. It’s only the men who prove they deserve the respect of everyone else who rightfully become world champions. Now really read into what I said. Target simply beating me and winning the Answers World Championship would not silence those who downplay your ability right now. Which is why you must prove yourself to all of those people before you can truly become a world champion that the entire world acknowledges as the top man of the brand you stand atop. I have done this recently. With that incredible accolade you mentioned of me defeating CM Banks and winning the Divide and Conquer match in the same night. There’s no man left that I need to prove myself to that I am of the caliber and ability to capture the Answers World Championship. Even then my resolve is so strong that the opinion of others don’t faze me. Not everyone thinks I’m that good even today and that’s fine. Everyone is entitled to believe whatever they want to believe. But the problem that stems from that is that some like to live in a delusional world where they perceive me as a man who doesn’t even belong in this business today, let alone battling with the best the Land of the Elites has to offer. I couldn’t give any cares about what my detractors have to say about me because I fight for what I firmly believe in and all of those who follow my cause and pray for my success.

Yes Target I have been an underdog, but I don’t consider myself such no matter how much others continue to say it. I believe I carry myself as a key player and one of the pillars of Friday Night Dynasty, let alone Elite Answers Wrestling today. How could I possibly be an underdog with JUST the things I’ve accomplished in Season Eleven? However I cannot say I’ve always felt this way. Yes I have been an underdog in the past. I had to fight for my spot every single week. Prove myself to each and every man I bumped into. I struggled to maintain what I was acquiring. I nearly lost it all a year ago at Road To Redemption, but I kept my composure and dominated the Grand Rampage with my record setting ten eliminations, Finally overcame Aren Mstislav at Pain For Pride, then went on to take on CM Banks and enter the divide and conquer match. My stock has never been higher than it is now and while I’m still hot I’m going to raise it up further. Losing to you is not an option for my Target, I feel bad that you couldn’t be matched up against anyone else to get in here. Whether it were Senn or Hawk. Because unfortunately for you Target you got paired up with the one man who knows too well about walls that must be climbed over and won’t allow you to do it. I know where you have been at every turn up to this point Target. It’s like I’m in your head before the bell even sounds. It is as if I’ve got a psychological grip and advantage over you before the show itself even happens. Now if you manage to overcome me of your own merit then good on you. But I highly doubt it will just happen that way without you pulling off some kind of magic trick or a hack of some sort. But you must understand one thing about me Target. No matter how high I climb up, I’ll always be the same man and I will always fight for the same core values I always have. I’m fighting to gain the influence and power to help this company further develop into a place for the next generation to thrive in without needing to struggle for years the way that I have. So that young men such as yourself don’t have to go through the trauma of defeat after defeat and being treated like trash just as I was for the longest time. You said something that confirms something I’ve been thinking about for many months now. The up and coming generation of elitists truly look at me as an example of what to become in terms of talent and ability. I am viewed as in your words “one of if not the best of my time”. You could even say I am now the man of my era, with so many others from my time going away one after another, including my brother Aren. I now hold the keys to the kingdom. I am treated as a hero to the people. A pillar to the brand I am a part of. A modern day deity of this industry. It’s almost like I am the new Gawd seeing as how the former is for the most part now away from active competition. And Target for being a man in my position I don’t just care about the fans, but about my fellow elitists whether you believe me or not. It is the reason why I want you to give me your absolute best. To show the world you’re not a failure. Even if you lose you have so much to take away from this main event. You just gotta look at it from this perspective. I’m not here to hinder your progress. No, more rather I’m here to push you to your limits so everyone can see and acknowledge your abilities and accept you are anything but a failure Target. After all is it not a God’s job to assist the world and therefore assist man? Have faith in me Target. Believe in me so that I may help you. It is the only way this can go down without pure disappointment for you. But like everyone else I cannot help you unless you help yourself Target. Target Smiles I’m not sweating the events of House of Glass or this qualifying match because as a God I am all seeing and all knowing. I see myself entering the Elimination Chamber and competing for the Answers World Title. And I Know it will be because I defeated you in this main event to get there. Sorry Target, but you were just matched up against the wrong opponent.

Re: EAW Promoz! October 2nd 2017, 2:34 am by **Brayden Wolfe**

" You know I've had the last week to sit back and think about a lot of things. I've had the chance to think about what's gone on since moving up to the Dynasty roster. You know, in my mind I know there are guys in the back who have loved what they've seen. I mean lets be honest as much as guys like to say I'm all talk. I really do think a lot of people are surprised about the way things have started for me. Now as much as guys would love to believe that I'm feeling down. As much as guys in the back would love to think that I'm not in the right mind frame. The fact of the matter is people can think all they want about me because I'm not here to make friends. I'm not here to make any new fans because quite frankly nobody in the back deserve to stand by my side. Ever since I stepped into this company I have backed up the words I have said and I have done it each and every single time I've stepped into the squared circle. The things I have done since signing my contract with this company are things no other superstar has ever been able to do. I have made an impact in this company, one that no other superstar in history has ever made. I've done it by doing what I do inside that ring and I do it better then anybody else in the world today. I've proven it time and time again, I've stepped into the ring and I've done every single thing I've said I would do. Yet I can't help, but sit here and feel like nothing, but a complete joke. I sit here and feel like in the eyes of EAW management I'm a mid card superstar. I guess what I've done since being called up to Dynasty has put me in this position. The fact is I haven't really impressed and honestly a few weeks ago I though I would be standing here right now with gold around my shoulder. Of course things didn't really work out that way, but don't think for one fucking second that I"m finished. I don't want anybody in this company thinking that I'm nothing more then a mid car superstar because if anybody on this roster is more then that, it's me. I have proven it each and ever single time I've stepped into the ring and whether I've won the match or I've lost the match I know my opponents have always found out who I am and what I'm all about. Each and every single time I've stepped into an EAW ring I have done nothing, but made an impact and I have done it in a very short time. See because when the EVO Series started I doubt anybody had me picked out. I really doubt anybody thought I was going to make it to the finals, but the fact that I won that whole tournament being undefeated, I think that says something. Apparently Dynasty management did as well or else I wouldn't have been called up as early as I was. You see I'm not a man who's going to let a couple of losses take me down. I've lost matches before, but I've always proven that I can fucking pick myself back up. I have always been a man who's been able to pick myself back up and step back into that squared circle to prove I am every bit as good as I say I am. The list of guys who I've taken down in this company is a fairly long list given the fact that I've only been here a short time. I mean lets face the facts and they are that I have done exactly what was needed to be done in order to have me stand here right now. Don't get me wrong sitting here with the New Breed Championship around my shoulder would be a great feeling. Hell, sitting here with the Hardcore Championship would be an even better feeling. The point I'm trying to get across is that as much as they would be a great feeling now. It'll be an even better feeling down the road when I finally have them around my shoulder. The fact that I will have worked as hard as I've had to in order to have one of those titles around my shoulder. It'll be the best feeling in the world, but you see there's a little bit of work that needs to be done before I get that opportunity. I say that because as much as I know I've made an impact in this company, I also know that's not enough. I've come to realize that here in EAW I may have to do a little bit more then make an impact in order to get the job done. I mean it's pretty obvious in my eyes anyways because whether anybody likes it or not I am the best wrestler in the world today. I've had my opportunity to prove it and have gold be put around my shoulder and I failed. Gotta admit it's not something I'm really used to and I can promise you it's not something that's going to keep on happening. I didn't get brought up to Dynasty so I can fucking lose matches. I was brought up here because management saw something in me that they didn't see in any other superstar on the NEO roster and that is talent. From the time I stepped foot in this company anybody who's watched me compete knows I have more talent then anybody else on the roster, but everybody's too fucking scared to say something. They feel like if I get my opportunity I won't deserve it and I find that a little fucking funny. I mean the wrestling world has watched me do what I do better then anybody else in the world today and they've watched me do it here for months. Yet there are guys who feel like I don't deserve the same opportunity's they have? If I was sitting here with the New Breed Championship around my shoulder right now there wouldn't be a single soul with anything to say. Nobody would be saying a word because each and every single person knows I deserve it. Of course because I didn't walk out with the title all of a sudden I don't deserve it anymore? Who the fuck made that rule? The only thing I have on my mind right now is what needs to be done in order for me to keep climbing up that ladder because as it stands right now. It's pretty clear I've hit a little bump in the road, but I'm going to prove this week that's all it was. Aka Manah, it appears that you and I will be stepping into the ring against each other this week and that's not good news for you. I say that because anytime you step into the ring with The Impact Player it's not good news, but this week is a totally different story. See because this week I feel like I need to do more because it's obvious over the last few weeks I haven't gotten the job done. It's pretty clear that I've walked into matches I wasn't really ready for, so this week. Aka you are going to be walking into the ring with a Brayden Wolfe that this company has never seen before. Not having gold around my shoulder right now has set a fire inside me, one I have never had in my life. I have one fucking goal and that is to have Championship gold sitting around my shoulder and I will stop at absolutely nothing in order to have that happen. "

" So Aka, as much as you may wanna sit there and think that you're walking into the ring with a guy you're going to make quick work out of. As much as you would love to believe that I'll be walking into our match not ready for what you're going to bring to the table. The reality is Manah, you're the one who has absolutely no fucking idea who you're going to be stepping into the ring with. Not only that, but you have no clue what I'm capable of doing so this is the big picture Aka. You're about to step into the ring with a guy who has absolutely nothing to lose. I mean lets face it I've already lost my title opportunities, but see all that means is I need to prove I deserve more. The fact that I don't have gold around my shoulder right now isn't really something I'm enjoying. It's not fucking something I dream about because the fact is I've had two opportunities at gold in a very short time. The reason for that Aka is because I have proven that I'm a man who deserves exactly what he says he deserves. When I step into that squared circle there is not a man in the wrestling world today who can lace up my boots. I've said it before and I'll continue to say it over and over again because it's the fucking truth. You, you have no idea what the truth is because you've never stepped into the ring with me before. You have no clue what reality is when you're in a match against The Impact Player and Aka that's not really my fucking problem. This week I have one job and that is to have my hand raised at the end of our match, but what I'm going to do too you during our match is what's going to stand out. See because I don't plan on just beating you Aka because I've already made it very well known I'm the best wrestler in the world today. This week I feel like things need to change a little bit and by that I mean I need to make a fucking example out of you. One that I have not made since coming into this company because you need to understand something and that is the fact that I don't fucking like losing. It's not something that sits well with me and I enjoy taking it out on my next opponents. You're the unfortunate one Aka because I'm coming off a couple of losses. That means things need to change a little and when that bell rings you're going to find out exactly how. This company has watched me blossom into the superstar I am today right before there very eyes. In just a few short months I have broken out and proven that I am a main event superstar. I have proven that given the right opponent I can put on classic wrestling matches each and every single time I step into the ring. "

" Now I would love to sit here and say that you and I are going to put on a classic wrestling match this week Aka. I would love to sit here right now and just know in my head that I'm about to step into a wrestling match that will go down in history, but that's not the case is it? The reality is I'm about to step into the ring with somebody I haven't really followed much of. The big picture is this week I'm stepping into the ring with somebody I don't really know and the fact that I don't know them. Well I think it says a lot because ever since I signed my contract I've made it known I want my name out there. I've made it known that I want to be in the ring with the best and yet I haven't really seen anything from you Aka. I haven't really even seen you inside that squared circle so for me to think this is going to be anything like a classic wrestling match. Well I think that'll be expecting a little too much from you because I doubt you've even watched a classic fucking wrestling match. I'm guessing you're just like all the other clowns in the back who believe they actually deserve to be in the ring with me? Aka, you're not somebody who is going to enjoy being inside that squared circle with me this week because I'm going to make you suffer Manah. You're going to suffer the same way I have ever since I stepped foot in this company by having to wrestle people like you. Second rate nobody's who don't belong in the ring with me, but of course just like everybody else you're being given your opportunity. You are being given the chance to prove just how good you are by being in the ring with the best wrestler in the world today. The only problem is Aka, you won't be walking out the same way you walked in and I'm going to make fucking sure of that. This week needs to be a week in which I do something I've never done before in this company and Aka you just happen to be the victim. Everybody can be as happy as they want about the fact that I've hit a couple of road blocks, but after they see what I do to you this week Aka. I highly doubt anybody will be happy with the fact that you even had a match against me because I'm going to leave you a bloody mess. You're going to be left a pile of fucking rubble and there's not a god damn thing you can do about it. I have absolutely nothing to fucking lose and when that bell rings Aka you're going to find that out. Another things you're going to find out is that I am a man who will do absolutely anything in order to get the job done. They don't call me The Impact Player for no reason and this week, you're finding that out the hardest way fucking possible. "
