Hello nCw,
You already know who I am, and you were expecting this. Kept you waiting didn't I? I've been busy, trying to keep my mind of my wife's whereabouts and onto this match I have. And believe you me, it's tough. I mean, even when I have a match with as much at stake as this one.
A chance to become nCw National champion again. I know I've been there, done that, and all, but that's a title reign which was forgettable, at best. You guys probably don't even remember who I beat, or who beat me, without looking at the nCw website, or me telling you like I didn't last time. Do you know why that is? Because that was 3 years ago. Times have indeed changed.
Wait, I already talked about how some things changed, and some don't, right? I'll spare you another lecture. But I feel tempted too, because my opponents apparently didn't catch the class a few days ago. Such is the case with the stubborn and the ignorant. Some times it makes me wonder. Why don't people listen? Why do they continue to poke the dog with the sharp stick?
The Stubborn?
Xavier Williams is such a fellow. After he mentioned me somehow fading away, he used the old excuse of "testing me" Just trying to see if I was really ready. X, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt by believing that. Because you want my best. Or so you say. Because my best hasn't come out yet. I've done some incredible things so far to be sure, but the key to doing what I do is to always keep the opponent guessing. And seeing as how you were just so concered with my attitutde and commitment towards this match, I made you guess. I'm in your head. You worry about me. And rightfully so I might add. You should gameplan for me. I'm pretty much a game-changer as far as I'm concerned.
But at the same time, I have similar questions about you. You've had numerous opportunities, and you've squandered them, probably more than me. And I can see that you figure winning this match is going to somehow propel you back into another dimming spotlight. Well, it's quite unfortunate that I am in this match then. All I've gone through here is more than enough for any one man, and yet I seem to be forgotten. There's always seems to be a spot for Xavier Williams to have some kind of impact, but not Ricky Johnson.
But that's all about to change.
X, if you wish to "rattle my cage" to see if I'm still the best, go right ahead. Because when what's in the cage is unleashed, you'll have no one to blame but yourself.
But I need to move on.
The Ignorant:
Jason Blair seems to the personification of the word. His harsh judgements of me without actually knowing me are blatant, hypocritical and disheartning. What does Jason Blair know about anything? Aparrently, if it's not in a certain book, Jason reguards it as false. Being a zealot isn't religious or righteous, Jason, but you already knew that, didn't you? If you wish to do something you feel will bring you closer to your god, by all means do so. I wouldn't ever insult your turn.
If it were real.
But that's just the facts, isn't it. You can quote the bible all you like. You can believe in whatever you want Jason, But you and I both know the truth. When you accuse others of wrong because they don't follow your path, it becomes bigotry. Who's the arrogant one now?
Is it me? Am I arrogant? I just tell the truth Jason. It's what I believe. I believe that I am one of the nCw's best wrestlers, and I've proven it time after time. I believe that I have a great chance of winning this upcoming match because I do. I believe in my skills because they've been tested before, and I'm still here. Does that make me arrogant? I think confident is appropirate, but not arrogant.
But on your side of the coin, you're taunting Xavier Williams and myself with scripture, and attempting (albeit poorly) to force this religion on us. You're standing in the house of god, and judging other people. What gives you the right? You're like a private talking to a general here. But I'll let you make your own mistakes. Blindly following a book isn't going to help you. There's no verse, or pslam that covers how to avoid defeat. But I'm sure there's something on coping with defeat. That should come in handy.
I am quite tired at this hour, composing this letter for mass consuption. So gentlemen, cosider this the "B" game, or maybe at the very least the "C+" game. But you're going to get a lot more come Sunday.
Xavier - I'm sorry, but this just isn't your time.
Jason - Being the sheep isn't going to win you this match, I choose free will.
And to Charlie Velez: Be seeing you soon.
And finally, Next week on nCw television, I want Steve Awesome. Again.
See you soon. [/color]
