Over the weekend there were a lot of things that went down here at TNT Wrestling.  Some of them directly affect me, and some of them indirectly affect me.  Let me start with the things that directly affect me, because those are the things I feel strongest about right now.  Let me start with my match last night on Mayhem.  Let me first start with Kage.  I guess you did it Kage.  I guess it was you that ended my undefeated streak since the new era in TNT Wrestling.  Congratulations buddy, I guess you really deserve it.  It's funny how things go though isn't it.  But I'd just like to say to Kage, that any time you want a match with me, you've got it.  I've got some revenge to get on you Kage, and I will get it, I always do.  And by the way Kage, don't talk to me about having everything handed to me on a silver plater.  You don't know me, you don't know what I've been through to get to where I am today.  So don't convince your self that I'm someone that I truly am not.  Get the facts before you start talking trash.
 

 

Now, on to the reason Kage really deserved that victory.  Cappy, what the hell are you doing?  I told you before, I don't need your help, I don't want Terror-X's help, and I didn't ask for it.  In fact, I did the opposite of ask for it, I asked for you to not help.  Did you listen to me though?  No, of course not.  Why would you do something like that, expecially when you could stick your nose in my business?  I said last week that I was glad that our match was changed to a singles match instead of that tag match.  Since it was a singles match, I figured that I would be able to win on my own terms instead of having to save your ass if you unfortunately mannaged to get into the ring.  Now Cappy, you have really pissed me off, and I'm not going to stand for it.  I'm not going to put up with you coming down to the ring and costing me a match against someone like Kage.  A man who has the gaul to break into by lockerroom and rummage through my things, and through my World Title belt.  I wanted to beat Kage, I wanted to shut him up.  I wanted to show him that messing with me a bad idea.  So thank you Cappy, thank you for screwing up.  I hope you've learned your lesson, and if you haven't please just let me know, I'll be sure to teach it to you.

But I digress.  Let me talk about some things that indirectly affect me, because they affect everyone in TNT Wrestling, but only indirectly as of right now.  Let me talk first about Jonny Fly.  I know Jonny Fly, he was a good wrestler in UWA.  He's already told you all about him, and that's great.  I'm glad that you all know about Jonny Fly.  That saves me the time of having to try and explain things to all of you.  He had some very nice things to say about me, saying that I am a great wrestler, which is true.  He talking about how if he gets lucky he'll maybe one day have a shot at me, the World Champ.  Well, if he continues to improve at the rate I've seen his improvement lately, I think he might just have that shot at me and my World Title.  Jonny is going to have to work hard though.  TNT is no wuss wrestling company, the guys here are serious.  Jonny is going to have to be at the top of his game if he wants a shot at me.  I think that Jonny Fly will live up to expectations though.  I predict a victory for Jonny Fly this Sunday night over Nightmare.  I'm not sure what it is I see in Jonny Fly, but from what I can tell, it looks good to me.
 

 

On to another issue that indirectly affects me, that issure being Kevin Cosmos.  Now I've never really been able to trust this man.  Is he putting on a mask to hide his true self, or is he being honest with everyone here.  I really don't think he would come to TNT Wrestling to try and steal our talent.  I just don't think he cares about the UWA that much.  As soon as he decided to show up, he's had great things to say about me.  He has done nothing but go out of his way to compliment me at any chance he gets.  It seems a little suspicious to me.  Like I said, I've never trusted this man.  When we were both in the UWA before, and when I held the UWA Undisputed Championship, he is the man that defeated me for it.  He is the man that caught me on an off day, a day where I was not as mentally focused as I should have been, and he was.  He was ready to go that day, and I have to give him credit for that.  He did what he set out to do, and I didn't.  Now don't get me wrong, I do respect him as a wrestler.  He is most definately one of the best in the business, and I welcome his excellance to TNT Wrestling.  I'm just not so sure if I can trust this man yet.  But, I guess only time will tell, and time is what I've got to give.  As for a prediction on his match for the TV title against Kage, he didn't win the UWA TV title, I think this might give him some incentive to win this title.  I'm going to have to pick Kevin Cosmos to be victorious in this one.

Finally, on last issue that directly affects me is my match next week in the main event on Mayhem where I will make my first defence against Bucky in a title for title match.  Bucky will defend his newly won TNT Wrestling Eurasian title against me, while I defend my World title against him.  I have never held that Eurasian title, and I am looking forward to one day doing so.  I think that this Sunday will be my chance to win that title.  I think that I'm going to have to win that title on Sunday.  If I lose to Bucky, and if Bucky becomes the new TNT Wrestling World Champion, I will have to live with that shame for the rest of my life.  Quite frankly, I'm on a different level than Bucky, and than all of the wrestlers here in TNT Wrestling.  A loss to any of them is embarassing.  So Bucky, I know that you would like nothing more than to win the TNT Wrestling World Championship, but it's not going to happen on Sunday.  If it ever does happen, it will happen when I no longer compete here in TNT Wrestling, because I am going to hold it until the day I retire from TNT.  So Bucky, good luck to you, and I'll see you in the ring.
