No Jesus Christ
Then said Jesus unto them again, verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door: by me if any man enters in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. But he that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. The hireling fleeth, because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. John 10:7-15
Nothing fancy today folks, another dull background room with a chair for me to sit on. My wife, once again, not in the picture. She is not needed for this…she’s already been forced to be involved too much as is. Now it is between the two MEN. Not God’s, not KINGS, not Shepherds, just MEN. When he realizes that…he’ll realize the truth about himself.
“So you call yourself the shepherd of the sheep in nCw, Adam? So you think that you can bring us to the “promised land”? I highly doubt you even know what one is. You are a thief, a liar, a coward and closer to the wolf or the hireling than a shepherd. There is no excuse for what you are. You are no Alpha, no Omega, and no King of Kings. You haven’t been properly challenged in so long, Adam, you’ve gotten quite a big head. Why haven’t you been challenged? Is it because you broke AJ, your biggest threat? Is it because you will not allow men with titles after you so men like Angel or Rob Diamond cannot attempt? Or is it because you have “Forgotten” that the one man who earned it most in the last 2 years of this federation has NEVER GOTTEN A CHANCE. And now…you send one rhyme-speaking crazy person to keep him at bay? What a sad excuse for a Champion and king you claim to be.”
Before you hedge those bets you placed against me
Be reticent of fortunes they foretell
Your verbal defecation I can't wash away despite myself
Your vanity, it seems, has served you well

Your verbal defecation I can't wash away despite myself

The song parallels things I am trying to get across to you, Adam. But yet you have no clue…none at all to your true nature.
“You try to tell me and the whole federation that we NEED you as our “King”, Adam. You try to say you are the “Alpha and Omega” putting yourself on the same plane as a God, but you are just a MAN! And men can fail, I’ve failed before, and so have you. Do you recall that you’ve won and lost titles before? Do you recall that no title you have ever held stayed around your waist forever? You will one day lose the belt you so covet and love. Nothing last forever, not even Gods. Zeus was the most respected and feared of all the Mediterranean gods before Christ, but as soon as Jesus’ word started being spread and giving people HOPE, well…he fell out of favor quite quickly. People don’t want to be told they will be smote, that they will be destroyed, killed, maimed, or that they NEED someone and NEED to grovel at their feet for fear of something bad, yet Christianity has resorted to such tactics as preaching Hell over Heaven for so many centuries, the main message is the SALVATION and GOOD THINGS that come of one choice, over another.”
You're so quick to choose the path walked by the righteous
So you can go and nest among the weak
The innocent observers will refuse to find the lie within
Renew the disappointment of the meek

“Yes Adam, you are so quick to try and make yourself seem Righteous and right. You are the first man to tell us all how much we like the Sheep, needing a leader, need to be led. You forget how many of your former “lackeys” are now leading their own lives, doing things as good as or better NOW than under your control. Your influence has weakened. Gib is leaving to get mental help; Falcon, Burns, and Angel have all deserted you. There are factions starting up like the Forgotten with the sole purpose of making you and others like you realize that privilege does not come before hard work. And I have WORKED HARD to be the best I can be. Very hard. And you claim to be better than everyone else while you refuse to see you are just the same as I, just a NORMAL man…no GOD, no KING, no CHAMPION.”
You're no Jesus Christ!
You're no Jesus Christ!
You're no Jesus Christ!
Indeed. I adjust my tie, as my wounds slowly healing under my shirt. Scars will soon form, scars I have EARNED. Where are yours, Adam? What scars do you have from your short reign as Xtreme champ? Where are your scars from THIS title? Where have you earned any injuries or wounds since Angel laid down for you in the Coliseum? Where are they?
“You are too privileged, Adam, you hold too much stake in your own vanity and self-appreciation to realize there are people as good as you or better who have yet to have even the slightest attempt at a championship match with you. Angel, Falcon, Rob Diamond, hell even guys like Joe Everyman have at least shown that they are not as big of choke artists or failures as the men you’ve defeated lately. Hexx gave you so many near falls, Adam; you almost lost to the PERENNIAL LOSER of this place. You barely escaped defeat from Davey Ortega, the longest-reigning choke-artist. And Who HELPED you? Who GAVE the DISTRACTION? AJ PHOENIX! The man who is now the ref…the man who should have been in Ortega’s place but you gave him such a bad kick to the jaw doctors thought it was broken. He wasn’t trying to HELP you; he was trying to help you LOSE. You had your feet on the ropes, you were cheating another win, but then when Ortega went to attack him for seemingly interfering…you took the chance to beat him. The man who had you BEAT. Poor Adam, you fail to realize your own failures.”
You keep takin' over
I keep rollin' over
I can't take it anymore
I keep rollin' over
I can't take it anymore
“I don’t like how you have been using your “power” to cheat to win, Adam. You promised us before, with the Revolution, that titles would be about EARNING them, about WINNING BY PURE SPORT! That’s what Falcon and Angel kept telling me, that’s why I never rose up and joined the Resistance. They pitched that you were the GOOD GUYS. But they left you when they realized you were a LIAR. You are a thief, while the original intent of Lance Ryan was to be a Shepherd, albeit by trying to look like the bad guy. But you took it a step too far, you weren’t just the “bad guy” to make us revolt, you became a Fascist that holds onto the belt at all costs. You cheat, you lie, you steal, and you find ways to hold onto power by putting down your opposition not with diplomatic strategy or by simply out-performing them, no…you do it by CHEATING. Even your win against Dirty Deal was tainted by cheating, by your own asking or by Dirty Deal’s dirty deals earlier in the night. You are a man, Adam…a MAN that can be beaten. Claim you are a God or Shepherd ONE MORE TIME! DO IT! I DARE you!”
Because I am still PERFECTLY NORMAL Kristoff Liam Bates. The man who will give you the biggest challenge of anyone you’ve allowed NEAR you. Because I am the one man who will give title shots to those who DESERVE it when you are thrown out of power. Because this place is overdue for a TRUE REVOLUTION. Because we don’t need a shepherd, but we don’t need FALSE GODS either. You are NO JESUS CHRIST! And I will show you just how UNGODLY you are.
