To fully understand the significance of what will transpire on Picture Perfect you must understand the obsession behind it.
For well over a year everything that made me me has burning on the back burner. It was just sitting their, idly bubbling and boiling with no attention. Slowly, it began to simply evaporate. Soon I found myself just cruising. I had no ambitions, no motivations.
What triggered my depression, what everyone said would ultimately end me was my loss to Spike Kane at Metamorphosis.
Pretty soon a faint glow lights up what seems far away, and then another one...and so on until they are all lit, and we are now looking at an empty arena with a ring. In the center of the ring stands one man, looking over it all.
Davey: That was then, and this is now. If you are anyone of any significance in this company, than you know of the tragic tale that deformed me for life. You don't want to hear it, and I really can not stand another trip down memory lane. So instead let us take a trip into the distant future. A future that will come to pass on Sunday, July 5th 2009. You will all lay witness to the crowning of a new champion, of a long over due champion. What happened last Collision, at the very end was only a taste of what will happen. It was only a preview. I will be the one standing with the title in my hand on Sunday.
Though in order to do this, I must overcome my adversary. Adam, you and I seem to always be at odds. Though we only clash over mediocre things. That changed though, because now you have the only thing I have ever wanted. Adam when I came back, I swore to you that I would come knocking on your door, well here I am. The funny thing about this entire ordeal is you put me here. The minute your foot collided with AJ's face was a knocking sound for me.
I always open the door when opportunity knocks Adam, you of all people should know that. The greatest thing about this match Adam, this is nothing personal. I have no greater vendetta against you, I have no visions of revenge. All I have is my obsession to be the champion. I don't care who stands in my way of getting it, I will get it.
Davey walks to the ropes, looking up at a banner placed for Picture Perfect showing Davey on one side, and Adam on the other with the title between them.
Davey: I take that back Adam. Obsession is not the only thing that drives me. I am also driven by redemption. I have to redeem my past mistakes. If I can not learn from my past mistakes, then I will forever be doomed to repeat. I didn't learn after RttG, I didn't learn after Mind Games...but I think I have it this time. I no longer feel the pressure for greatness. I no longer feel the weight of my life riding on this one match.
That means that contrary to your belief I will not choke. I am incapable of it. I will not go down in history as the greatest competitor to never win. Adam it is my time. It is my time to shine. Your time will set this Sunday, and will rise on my time. I want you to fully understand this concept. I don't want any dumbfounded looks when it happens, I want you to simply except your fate.
It is time that you, and everyone else to stop believing. Belief is something you have in the unknown. You, me and everyone will no longer believe that I can do it, soon they will know. You and everyone else will soon know that I am the best, bar none. On Sunday, I will prove it.
