A lot of people ask me.. am I afraid of death..
Hell yeah I'm afraid of death
I don't want to die yet
A lot of people think.. that I worship the devil..
that I do all types of.. retarded ****
Look, I can't change the way I think
And I can't change the way I am
But if I offended you?
Good
Cause I still don't give a f*ck
I've been through an awful lot since I came to nCw way back in 2007, both physically, and mentally....hell, even emotionally. I have had to deal with adversity at every corner, and I have never backed down from a fight or a challenge. I've done wrong, I know I have, the whole roster and all the fans in the world know I have...
And some repetitive, unoriginal, boring bastards keep repeating it.
But hey, that is your prerogative, I can't help it if you need to pad your promo with low blows and personal shots because you aren't clever or creative enough to actually engage the viewer and make them see things from your side. Oh no! I'm breaking the fourth wall! But not in an idiotic way like Trent Helms, or a whiny little bitch way like Todd Williams.
Because I'm better than that, and I'm better than them. I hate to say it, because there are some people in this match I kind of respect, and one of which who I value as a very good friend...
But I'm better than all of you.
I know most, if not all of you will dispute the fact, and of course William will get butt hurt because he bleeds nCw and doesn't have the talent to make it anywhere else, or should it be brown nose and butt kiss anywhere else.....seriously dude, you're worse than “every-bodies best friend” Toddley. I am better than each and every one of you, and I have proven it on several occasions, I have risen to the top every single place I've gone....and I am a world wide household name. I know it just doesn't seem right does it? The man you all love to hate so much, is just loved all over the world. People pay money just to see me, just to be near me.....people line up over night just to get my autograph....but it means nothing because the little soldiers of nCw cry when somebody decides they are tired of the bull****.
I've left on my own terms a few times, like any person would do if they felt management were not handling their career very well. That doesn't make me a bad person, that makes me a work horse. When I get bored of the same old, and want a challenge? That makes me a fighter....but you think it makes me a lesser person.....you all do, whether you say it loud and proud like William, or if you mumble it under your breath like Rickliam.
I've made mistakes in my life, a lot of them have been publicised and used and abused by this very company, let alone others.....I won't mention them but let's say they were run by a dude who's name rhymes with Gravey Poone. Yet you all jump on that bandwagon, because you know it will score you brownie points with the pencil necks and paper pushers in the offices, “oh yes, these points are valid” Yeah they were.....two years ago.
I've been paying my way for the mistakes I made with my own blood, sweat, and tears, and you know what? With a rather large chunk of the same from my opponents. I clawed my way through the roster starting at the bottom and earning my way back to the top.
Do you see The Ace doing that?
Do you see Will Washington doing that?
Oh hell no! Their ego's wouldn't let them do that, they have to be in the limelight right from the get go, **** earning things! That's not what the cool kids do any more, right? I mean, lord knows that Todd Williams didn't earn ****! So before you start spitting your barbs at me, maybe you should take a look at yourselves, look at your career....not just your nCw career, look back at your entire wrestling career and try to justify to yourself how you can even slightly measure up to me, the God of Xtreme.
Yet, what you all seem to forget is the reason why I am here. Ironically, it's the reason you all are here. Yeah....some of you might be loyal to nCw and nCw alone, some of you might have tried your trade elsewhere but came back because this place has great competition (lord knows I did) some of you may very well bleed nCw.....others might be the apathetic wankers you portray on TV, but what you all forget is....
You are here because of me.
I am the solitary remaining founding father of nCw.
Oh ****....no wait, Davey Ortega is back now, right? Wait...does he even count? I mean...nCw only really got interesting when I took over the Empire...and kicked his sorry ass to the curb for letting everyone down, time and time again. So...I guess my statement is true...
I really am the solitary remaining cornerstone of nCw.
Where is Lance Ryan?
Where is Jack Manson?
Where is Phillip Burns?
Exactly children, they didn't last, and only one came close to reaching the level I have attained. I carried this federation before you leeches even decided to try and see if you could swim in these waters. I was the shark that fed with free will, and allowed others to flourish in my shadow.....I made nCw what it is today, and without me not a single one of you would still be wrestling today. Some of you, may have never even started.
Think about that whilst you plan your pathetic, over used and unoriginal barbs to send my way. I've been doing this for fifteen years and a half years.....I've captured more championships than some of you have had matches, and probably more than all of you have had main events....in fact, I think the number is right up there with Mr-All-Time-Wins! I know....
Impressive isn't it?
I set the bar in nCw, and I am forever etched into the history books, people know me, respect me, fear me, or hate me. Every single person has something they feel towards me, usually one of the afore mentioned......because any publicity is good publicity, whether it's people bitching and moaning because I went and captured a title somewhere else whilst they smashed their face against the glass ceiling, or because I tried to push myself to the next level and discovering talent the likes of Gib, Bob Pooler, and even Nate.....whilst you fell into the routine and just rested on your laurels.
No. I'm better than that.
And now you have that feeling in your gut, that feeling that tells you “He's right” you've always known it, you've just been waiting for the day to finally find out. Well I'm tired of playing, I'm tired of pussyfooting around. I've been given a chance, an opportunity to reach the top of the mountain once more, a repayment of the debt this company owes me....and I plan on cashing it in full. No matter who gets in my way, or who tries to stop me.
I want this more than either of you could ever comprehend. It means everything to me, and I will stop at nothing to get it....
If I have to break you all, then so be it.

We open up on the nCw Headquarters office in Dallas, Texas. We pan across the reception area where we see a hot blonde chick answering some phone calls and speaking to people as they come in before we see a huge nCw logo with “Entertainment” written underneath all lit up with a back light. We see a man in a suit come from around the corner as he hangs up a phone call on his cell just as our hero, the one and only, Spike Kane walks through the front door. The receptionist blushes as he winks at her and he greets the man with a handshake.
Man: Thank you for coming to meet me on such short notice Mr Kane.
Spike smirks and shakes his head, shrugging his shoulders too.
Spike: It's no trouble, the call said you guys wanted to put a DVD together, but you needed my input or something?
The guy starts ushering Spike down a corridor through the building, one Spike had become quite familiar with during his time hosting Spike TV. He started to take the lead towards his old office, he knew exactly what the problem was, but when he got to the door his name was still there.
Man: Ah yes, we haven't gotten around to re-issuing the office to someone else. Though I do hear Miss Hilton may be in the market...
Spike turns and snarls at the guy just glaring at him for mentioning her. He turns and opens the door to see Kelly Knite inside, leaning against the desk waiting for Spike. She stands almost provocatively as the wall of TV's behind her play footage of Spike, but not just nCw footage of Spike, they all span his entire career.
Spike: ERM....Kelly, what’s going on? Did you raid my DVD collection?
She winks at Spike and folds her arms as she stands up, the dude who was escorting Spike bows out of the room and closes the door. Kelly turns her back to Spike and looks up at the screens, motioning for Spike to move over to her.
Kelly: Do you remember when you first came here Mike?
Spike: Like it was yesterday Kells. I was so psyched to be getting such an amazing deal from your Father. Putting me on prime time worldwide TV.....with a promise of main events and all the jazz that goes with it. Man, it opened my eyes to a different side of this business....
Kelly: But you never really needed the money did you?
Spike: Nope. I had money behind me, because I wasn't stupid with it. I kept it, or invested....but the chance to reach so many people, and show them my unique brand of talent....that is how your Father suckered me in.
Kelly: And the main thing you did with your money?
She still hadn't looked at him at this point. He was still standing there like a moron with his mouth wide open thinking about the day he met Leonard Fox.
Spike: You don't mean the property do you?
She smiles once again and turns to face Spike as she clicks the pause button on one of the screens, this screen showing a clip of Spike standing on the turnbuckle with the nCw Championship in his hands.
Spike: The matches.....
Kelly: Yep, that's right. You managed to wriggle into all of your contracts that you would own the rights to every televised match you were a participant of.
Spike: Seemed like a clever thing to do at the time...
Kelly: Oh don't worry, I'm not angry. I just see....a money making chance...
Spike: What's that exactly?
Kelly: Well, with me announcing you as a participant of the Coliseum, people are flocking to the stores and the websites to buy your merchandise and DVD's, we even had to order some new t-shirts made just to keep up with demand.
Spike chuckles and smirks, happy of course to hear that the people still love him.
Spike: So....what are you after?
Kelly: I want the rights from all of your matches.
Spike: Ha! Like that's going to happen.
She nods her head, as if she was expecting that answer, but she manoeuvres herself towards Spike in that confident, sexy (but not flirty) way that women with power do.
Kelly: I thought you might say that Mike....but I'm not expecting you to give them to me for free. You see, demand for Spike Kane is at it's highest since you held the nCw World Title...so I'm willing to buy them off you, at a decent price and offer you thirty percent of all Spike Kane merchandise from now on....and of course, an adjustment to your Sovereign and possible A Night to Remember contract...
She hands Spike the contract to look over and he looks back at her shocked. She smiles back at him and he just smirks, nodding his head and looking up at the screens playing through his career highlights.
Spike: ….remember those words I said to your Dad back in 2007?
She giggles a little this time and smiles before producing a second piece of paper.
Spike: “Where do I sign?”
And we fade away.

William, it seems like last week I hit a nerve, and activated your super mega butt kissing powers. Which of course made me laugh quite a lot, so I guess I have to thank you for that, I mean it's the only entertainment value any single one of your promos has ever given me.
Ever!
But hey, I digress, I mean I know I've had some pretty dull screen moments....like that time I burned a house down, or that time there was an explosion....or even that time where there was a shooting! …...oh, I guess I don't have dull screen moments. Do you know why? Because I don't rely on mud slinging to get by. I don't rely on buying into the hype or the insults that OTHER PEOPLE USE, to try and get by. I mean you stood there and spoke AT me like I'd stolen your chocolate milk at lunch time and now you were going to tell your mommy about it.
You just don't get it.
I retired because I had to, it wasn't a choice, it wasn't an option. My mental health had reached a point where I was no longer fit to compete. You make out like I got bored and ran off to fight some other talentless hacks, well....there is enough of you here to keep me busy for a long time. I took a desk job William, a f*cking desk job! I'm the God of Xtreme, and I'm sitting behind a desk faking happiness just so that I can be a part of nCw television, just so I can get my personal brand of entertainment, humour, and just plain fun out there into the world. I know you watched Spike TV William, I know you were a big fan....
Are you butt hurt because you were never mentioned?
Well I only mentioned people who were relevant, and....I don't even remember the last time you were. Oh, wasn't it when you won this match up? Wasn't it when you flopped and failed like everybody predicted you would....and then with your tail between your legs, and your head firmly shoved up someone else’s ass you disappeared, because you couldn't handle the fact that you were a failure.
Case and point William. Everybody loses. It's how you deal with the losses that define you as a fighter, a competitor, and most of all, a champion. You think you are better than me because you are a loyal little lapdog, when the truth of the matter is you knew you didn't have what it takes to start at the bottom and work your way up again to prove to the roster you belong at the top. You couldn't handle going into another place and being the “rookie” so you sat on the sidelines, watching daytime TV and masturbating to pictures of Andrew Jacobsen....you make fun of me, but I'm a business man William, I always have and always will have a plan. Whenever I was sideline...
like when Brad put a train Spike through my hand.
Like when I became the General Manager.
Like when Riley Griffiths forced me to.
I always had a plan, be it my wrestling school in Boston, or the MMA school in England, or even Spike TV. There was always something in the pipeline that not only kept me busy, kept the cash flow, but kept me close to this business. You make wild accusations and sling mud at me, but look closer William. I don't need the pay day. I don't need the fame. In case you forgot I'm a member of the nCw Hall of Fame. I don't need losers like you to respect me, because I'm superior....
I am here, because I was offered a chance to do what I do best, and what I love more than anything else in this world.....competing. Fighting, being one with the crowd and delivering on a level that nobody else can touch.....
I am here, to be the best.

The Diary of a madman....[/b]
Riley asked me to start doing this again whilst I'm going to be active in the ring. He said it would help everyone keep track of how I'm doing, and let us know if any warning signs come up. I still can't believe he passed me for in ring action. I never thought I'd ever step foot in an nCw ring again, but....god dammit I love Kelly!
She has done so much for me over the years, and it really warms the heart to have a boss who cares so much. From giving me a desk job, to letting me have time off when I needed it....to this, putting me in the Coliseum match. It's an absolutely insane gesture, and I know people aren't very happy about it. What can I say? I'm happy, somebody is finally taking a chance on me again, a chance I think I truly earned, and I'm stoked.
Win or lose I know I'm going to give it my all and give every single ounce of love, respect, and down right ability I have just to try and recreate my greatness. I'm 33 and people already think I'm too old to do this, but they are just idiots trying to get the advantage without actually studying up on their opponents, it's silly really, but hey....I'll take it, because it means I can kick their heads off come Sunday.
I mean that in a match type way, not literal, in case anybody reading this thinks I want to behead people.....I'm so totally over that phase.
Psych!
Haha, man I'm so stoked!
Spike.

Nate, I don't think I can say anything more than what I said last week. I do admire your work ethic, and I do think that you have the chance to make it big here in nCw, without kissing ass like so many others do. But like Ricky said...
It's just not this time.
There is an absolute plethora of talent in the ring this Sunday, and whilst I'm not saying you are not good enough to win such a match, I am saying you are not good enough to win this one. I know it sounds harsh, but I'm laying down some truth. I'm almost certain that every single man in this match wants the victory more than you do, needs the victory more than you do. I know that without this victory, I go back to being a retired superstar who cowards take pot shots at knowing that I can't retort. I can deal with it if I have to..
I just don't want to.
I love this business, I thrive off of adversity and I have always done well when the odds have been stacked against me, be it back in the day when I won the King of the Hill match, be it somehow managing to win a Rumble in the other place AND defeat one of the true Young Guns for the world title. I've done what needed to be done, and put my mind, body, and soul on the line to get it done. Can you say that Nate? Can you truly say that and believe the words when they come out of your mouth? I am a legend in this business, it's something a lot of people cannot stand, people like Will Washington, and The Ace.....because they will never, ever, match up to me....and it burns them up inside.
I suggest that you don't let it bother you too much, it is better to be eclipsed by a far brighter star in a moment of glory, than to burn out without anybody even noticing. You raised a few eyebrows by even being in this match, and I can't say that I’m not shocked either. Do you deserve it? Hell yes....you are probably one of the few who does. I'm just sorry that it isn't going to be your day, because there are too many dangerous men in the ring, too many men with nothing left to lose....you are stuck between a rock and a hard place my man.
I just hope it doesn't hurt too much when I knock you down and become the 2012 nCw Gladiator!
Oh, and the rest of you? I'm not done quite yet....but I'm aware that these network guys need time to filter through your crappy promos and put them on the air, so say what you want, say what you have to....I'll get to you all eventually, but just remember that on Sunday night you will all......motherf*cking.....hail!

Edit: To fix coding.
