II.
I’ve tasted defeat. It’s a disgusting and fowl taste. I’ve been tossed aside for the shiniest new toys. It is a huge slap to my face. It made it seem that everything I gave for this business was just for someone shiny to come in and tear down my legacy. The “New Era” as this period in EAW has been dubbed is pretty disgusting. It placed the attention of men and women who walk into those doors. Those are the same people who think they deserve the world by just showing themselves. Those are the same people who are the first to discredit the men and women who have been in this industry for the past decade like we don’t matter. Oh no! We gotta build internet darling
#101, let’s just throwing veteran
#50 at them, it’s not like people will see them any differently! The fact is the constantly repeat this formula and our worth in the company diminishes as theirs increases. I’m never against making new stars. They can make all the new stars they can, but you can never duplicate their success with the stars who have been by your side for the past decade. Constantly, you will find these people stomping all over to you to make their precious pet projects even greater. You can be as nice of a guy as my opponent, Nobi and it is truly the definition of nice guys finishing last.
Not even your first title defense in and you’ve got a bunch of shiny competition like Jacob Moore and Charlie Marr who are more than ready to take the National Elite Championship from you. It was so easy to defeat you. Jacob Moore managed to defeat you. There is no doubt if Charlie Marr got in the same ring as you, you will end up with the same result. Where does our champion, Nobi go now? Does he gain the confidence to set out and prove to the EAW fans that Nobi is not the weakest champion in EAW or does he continue to doubt and hesitation when being a champion? You are making one of the biggest mistakes right now--you are not confident that you can be your new competition. You are not confident that you can beat some of the best talent on Showdown. As the face of the midcard Division, you’re supposed to assure everyone supporting you that you will make it out of this situation alive. You are supposed to look those small kids with those colorful t-shirts that our wonderful National Elite Champion will defeat Jacob Moore and Charlie Marr when the time comes. If you come out to me saying “maybe, you are better than me”, then you are placing not only doubt in the minds of those supporting you, but yourself. It must be a rookie thing with you...or it must be a Nobi thing. You approach this match wearing dignity and respect and songs and praises, then you’re basically giving your opponent's what they want. They want you to feel weak. They want you to get down on your knees and kiss the ground the walk on. Why don’t you make the job similar and just get on your back and lay there for three seconds? You’re just giving me the victory. Why not do the same for Jacob and Charlie? Why not just hand them the National Elite Championship because Nobi might not be good enough to be a champion? I mean, who ever said that you were the weakest champion in the company? As I recall, no one, but yourself thinks that? I think if you ever want to make it out of your first title defense, you need to reevaluate yourself and gain some confidence. You need to look at yourself in the mirror and go “I’m the best”, “I’m the competition to beat on Showdown,” “I’m going to beat Cameron,” “I’m going to beat Charlie and Jacob.” If you can’t look at your opponents in the eye and see that they will get their ass handed to them in the ring, why would we trust you to be the eyes that take the National Elite Championship to new roads? I’m not saying this to put you down. I’m not saying this to be mean or to hurt your feelings. I’m saying this to help you for the future. These people want a National Elite Champion who can look danger in the eye and not blink. These people want a champion they can place their faith and trust in when the going goes tough. I’m not asking you to change your values. I’m not asking you to chance what makes Nobi an amazing wrestler and person. I am asking you to reevaluate yourself and do something about the two competitors that have your road blocked from continuing your title reign. As for facing me, it’s not going to be easy and I like to think that you’re smart enough to understand that. I think we have established that none of us want to lose. None of us are hesitant when it come to throwing the first punch in the match. There was a reason why I defeated Stark at King of Elite. There was also a reason why you made Stark tap out at Kingsroad. There is a reason for everything. Despite the result of our match on Saturday, I hope you can accept the result of your loss no matter what the reason may be.
