It was my third match in New Championship Wrestling. It was a match against... Jimmy Zane... where people found out that I was the real deal. Both of us had gone out to that ring, both of us had given it all inside of that ring --- and neither man walked out ahead of the other. It doesn't matter how the match ended, the only thing that mattered was we never found out who was the true winner! Not even when we both stood in the ring just one week later, because it wasn't a singles contest this time. We had a third man standing there that truly decided who won, and Jimmy Zane capitalized on it. However, it still left people wondering; when are we going to see the rematch? When are these two warriors going to go at it in a true round two? When are they going to take everything from each other, and give it all to...
I can't believe I'm saying this.
To the viewers?
I felt a smile come to my face, knowing that it's been so long since I've done something truly under the impression that I could do something to please anyone in the stands, and mean it.
Right here, right now. Zane. Alex Jones is going to be going after Lex Sense, that's a fact --- for what he did to Angel, and for what he did to him at Collision this past week... and maybe I should be gunning for him, too. However, enough people have their sights on him and here's the fact of the matter: None of them are on you. Save for one. Mine. To them, Zane, you're just a bystander... you're just the one reaping all the benefits from what Lex Sense has done to Angel, for the monster that people see in him. You're hiding behind a monster. You are not one.
Momentarily, my mind drifted back to when we both stepped into the ring for the very first time. Remembering all of the people that were on their feet, and saying "W-T-F" when the match had ended abruptly. I let my eyes fall from the camera, and brought a smirk to my face.
I...
I lifted my head to look directly into the camera.
I want you in the ring, Jimmy Zane! The official round two... That's if you have the balls to accept the challenge, for next month, or if you're going to remain that bystander who reaps the benefits of having a monster at his side.
I sat back in my chair, and shrugged my shoulders. What could I do if Jimmy Zane wasn't going to accept my challenge? I could... force him. I'll deal with all of that later, and see to it that he steps into the ring with me. It was time to focus on what was directly ahead of me.
I have two great opponents this week. Jackhammer, and DDK. A former Xtreme Champion and Tag Team Champion --- and then a man who is, needless to say, is a bit out of his mind... however, DDK has proven that he can get the job done when everything is on the line. Former World Champion. One of the greatest Tag Team Champions that nCw recognizes! The man can get it done... and I believe, I believe that Jackhammer can also get it done.
There's various reasons for why I have to go out to the ring and believe that I can win, and I believe that I can win against the likes of these two because... Jackhammer and I, this isn't the first time that we've stepped into the ring before. I've fought him in a fatal four way, back in the day, and I won. That tells me one thing: I can do it again! Take one man out, and I can do it again. The reason for why I believe I can defeat DDK is simple... I've defeated former World Champions in the past, and I'm going to defeat them in the future. You, DDK, are just another opponent. Another person standing in front of me, another person that I have to go through. Another person that I will go through.
People have told me this before, and I'm going to use it now... It doesn't matter what you've done in your past. All that matters is what you are doing now! I don't care that you are a former nCw World Champion, because that's something that you did in the past. That's something behind. What's ahead of you? I don't see much. There's really nowhere for an insane man to go, once he's been to the top... besides the mental asylum. Or maybe the comic book convention.
I have to look ahead, and I have to know that I have the ability to win. Alex Jones... he believes that I can, and what is he? One of the greatest wrestlers that nCw has ever seen. A man that will stand tall as the World Champion, and will be recognized as one of the greatest to ever hold it, just as he's been recognized as one of the greatest to ever hold the X-Division Championship, and has proven that he's one of the greatest National Champions.
That man, believes I can beat you. I still have a lot to learn, there's absolutely no denying that... but I will learn, and while I learn, I will ascend to the top. Alex Jones helped, and is still helping put me back on the winning track... and now... I'm going to keep it that way. That's why, this Sunday, I am going to win.
I can't believe I'm saying this.

August 21, 2011. Collision.
{Immediately following Collision, a handheld camera has caught up with Seth Evans... standing at his side is, of course, Kiela as the medical staff is trying to check on him. He has one arm behind his back, just resting at his lower back, as he draws in a few deep breaths. Winded. Because of Lex Sense taking him down with The Prediction, one of the finishing maneuver's of his. Persistent, the medical staff continued to try and make sure that he was okay.}
Seth:
"Back off! Damn!"
{Receiving the message loud and clear, the medical staff backs down... they turn to give their attention to another, but the handheld continues to follow Seth, while Kiela wraps one of her arms around Seth to make sure that he's okay --- he nods his head, and gets to the concession table where he just picks up a water bottle. He lifts the bottle over his head to douse himself so that he may cool off, and then pours some of the water into his mouth.}
Kiela:
"Are you sure you're okay? I think you should let them check you out, just to be safe."
Seth:
"Babe," he speaks sharply "I'm fine. Trust me."
{Seth is walking a few steps ahead of her, but she stays as close as she can... a lot of ruckus going on around them, following the closure of the show. Suddenly, while walking towards the locker room, a camera crew and Chad Lights approach the couple.}
Chad Lights:
"Seth, can we have a moment?"
{Knowing that Chad isn't one to give up on getting the scoop, Seth faces them and nods his head --- the handheld watches from an angle, while Chad Lights turns towards his camera crew, and begins his introduction.}
Chad Lights:
"Ladies and gentlemen, we're here with Seth Evans... who just went through a crazy match with Lex Sense and Roberto Verona, ended up being victorious. However, still received The Prediction from the very man who could have very well ended the career of former World Champion, and Hall of Famer, Angel! Seth," Chad brings the microphone closer to Seth, who doesn't even have eye contact with the camera "What's going through your mind? With Alex Jones willing to help you get back on track with your career, you seem to have been just in the wrong place at the wrong time, when it comes to Lex Sense."
Seth:
"That's simple, Chad. You said it... I was in the wrong place, at the wrong time. That doesn't give Lex Sense any excuse to begin assaulting me, and that's something that I'm absolutely not going to stand for. However, someone else caught my eye in that chaos."
Chad Lights:
"Rob Diamond? It's clear that the history between you two has been nothing short of rocky, having gone through a war of your own with the man a couple years ago..."
Seth:
"No, Rob Diamond isn't a worry. I shook his hand, and he proved to me that he was truly one of the best that NCW had to offer back in the day, and still is... No, Rob Diamond didn't catch my eye. It's great to see him back, it's great to see him wanting to avenge his friend, and I'm not going to stop him from getting to Lex Sense. The one that caught my eye was Jimmy Zane, and since the very first time that he and I stepped into the ring with each other --- I was looking forward to a round two. He just gave me a reason to break him. That's what I'll do."
Chad Lights:
"So, you're putting a target on the back of Jimmy Zane?"
Seth:
Shaking his head a little, Seth looks up to the camera held by the camera crew, accompanied by Chad Lights. "Let me take this one step at a time, Chad. I'll handle Zane my own way, but I'm taking this one step at a time... regardless of what happened after the match, Alex Jones and I walked out as the winners. I'm going to see to it that I keep that winning streak going. When I find out who my opponent is for next week, that's who my target is on... and, without wanting to sound cocky, I'm going to make an example out of him. Make sure that Jimbo knows --- I'm coming for him."
{Seth turns away from the camera crew, and the handheld camera shuts off at the same time.}
