Doubts

[To Be Announced]

It's finally coming. The night that will either make me or break me. The stage is set. Five contenders will be unleashing all kinds of hell on each other, all for the right to call themselves the first ever MPW X-Core champion. But I guess you already know that. Everybody involved in this match is up for the challenge. But I have to be totally honest with you. You know what they say about having butterflies in your stomach? I've felt that way many times in my life, and I've gotta tell you. They feel more like albatrosses heading into this match.

I was the first out of the five to share my thoughts about my opponents, and I have been anxious to hear how they would respond. A certain few did not appreciate being called pussies, and one of them did not even respond to me as an individual. But after checking these promos out, I have been asking myself am I really up for the challenge? Am I really in way over my head? I've been researching some of the guys I'm in this match with, and all of them have a history of violence, whereas only recently I broke into the business. I'm still pretty much a rookie around these parts, while these guys have won wars and championships. Clearly I'm the underdog heading into this match, but what's worse is that I'm gonna be pressured into winning this match. Don't get me wrong, I've truly cherished the support from my fans, but recently I've just been feeling that I can't live up to their expectations of me. I feel like I'm being pressured into busting my ass and giving them what they want, and what they want me to do is win. I just don't feel like I can do it. I can't live up to the standards of the MPW crowd, at least not in the way that someone like Trey Baxter or Aidan Caine can. I've already let my fans down on multiple occasions, and I'm starting to think that all this effort that I put it will be worthless. I doubt that my fans would continue to support me if I keep failing to give them a reason to cheer for me in the first place.

I want to apologize to all of my fans who have been supportive of me, and I want to say thank you to MPW for giving me this opportunity to live my dream, but...




Sweeney: Hey Chicken, hope this isn't a bad time.

Seriously Sweeney, if you walk in on me like this again, I swear you will have a bad time!

Chicken: Uhh no Sweeney, it's fine. Come on in. What's up?

Sweeney: Well I just wanted to check up on the future X-Core champion of course!

Chicken: Yeah...I don't think that's gonna be happening...

Sweeney: Say what?

Chicken: *sigh* I'm thinking of quitting.

Sweeney: What are you talking about?

Chicken: I don't know, I guess you were right all along. I don't have what it takes. I'm in way over my head.

Sweeney: Dude, are you serious? You've come so far, and you're just going to turn and run away now?

Chicken: That's why you call me Chicken isn't it? That's why everyone does.

Sweeney: You know that's just a silly nickname right? You're not a chicken, you're a professional wrestler. A damn fine one too!

Chicken: Piss of Sweeney, cut the crap. You know I'm not a wrestler. I'm just a joke.

Sweeney: Is this about what that Ash Soulsfate said? Chill dude, he's full of shit anyway. Just give him a punch and a kick and he'll probably go down begging for mercy already.

Chicken: Says you...

Sweeney: Okay dude, I know that I haven't really been completely supportive, but you know something? Ever since you first stepped into that ring, you've impressed the hell out of me. More importantly, you've proved me wrong. I was always doubtful of the choices you made in your career, but week after week, you always find a way to prove me wrong. You took the Hardcore Icon to his limit. You snogged Siren into submission, something that I as well as most other guys have always dreamed of. Even after being busted wide open, you managed to overcome the odds and beat Rye Payne. And now here you are, just hours away from the biggest match in your career, with the opportunity to make history. You are now one of five elite stars with the opportunity to become the first ever MPW X-Core champion, a chance to accomplish something that no one will ever be able to accomplish again! You started with absolutely nothing, and already you've made a name for yourself here. Not only have you proved me wrong, but you've proved everyone else wrong. You are not a loser. You are a wrestler, a contender. You are a star. And you know something? You didn't get to where you are today just by running away. No, that was all you. You qualified for this match, and I know you can become the first X-Core champion. Brandon, Ash, Jason and Kuk believe that you can't win? Well then just do what you've been doing your entire career. Prove them wrong!!

Wow...

Chicken: Dude...like, wow. I never knew...

Sweeney: Yeah well, I didn't want to say anything before...

Chicken: You know what, you're right. I've come so far, and I've done it all by myself. I can do this. I know I can win!

Sweeney: Awesome! Well I'm glad. I've gotta run now though. I'll catch you later, and I hope that you bring your A-game at After Shock!

Chicken: No worries dude. I'll give it my best shot. Let me just do this real quick...

Wow...that caught me off guard. Never expected that from Sweeney, he's usually just a douche. Oh well, I'd better delete this blog entry...

Alright, let's start this again...




It's finally coming. The night that will either make me or break me. The stage is set. Five contenders will be unleashing all kinds of hell on each other, all for the right to call themselves the first ever MPW X-Core champion. But I guess you already know that. Everybody involved in this match is up for the challenge. And you know what? So am I!

You know, all I've seen this week is talk. Talk, talk, talk. I've heard how I don't deserve to win, how you're going to destroy me, how I was meant to be a victim. Of course, I'm guilty of this to, updating this blog with comments about my opponents. But the thing is though, do you guys actually mean it? Brandon, do you honestly thing that you're going to, as you say it, take back your throne? Ash, if you think of yourself as a god then clearly you have issues. Kuk, is it really your time? And Jason, are you truly ready? Because let me tell you something, everything I say comes straight from the heart. And this is a shoot from the heart. I know I can beat you all. Why? Because you all underestimate me. Brandon, I know I've never beaten you fairly, but when it comes right down to it, you are, always have been, and always will be a pussy. One on one, I took you to your limit, and when we last fought against one another, you had to rely on a distraction to finally put me down. You couldn't even face me last week without help from Nikki. Is the Hardcore Icon afraid of a little old Chicken? Certainly seems that way...fucking pussy...

And speaking of pussies...Jason Xavier! How's life in the asses of Clash and Rage? You know something, as much as it pains me to admit it, we are quite similar in a few ways. You've worked hard to get where you are today, and so have I. The difference is that I'm not afraid to work alone, I don't need the comfort of two jackasses giving me a false sense of security like a young child. In all seriousness though Jason, I am taking you seriously, as I am everyone else involved in this match. I'm not underestimating you, nor am I underestimating everything that you've accomplished in your career. I'm so glad that you're ready for this match, it's about time you stepped from the shadows and make a name for yourself on your own...excluding Faith of course. Oh, and by the way, I'm sorry I offended you in any way Faith, I just hope you come to your senses soon and realize that you can do much more...

As for Kuk...well...not much of a change in my opinion to be honest. Still as enigmatic as ever, and still as eerie as ever. If I ever have kids, I certainly wouldn't want them anywhere near someone like you, but that's another story for another time. Anyway, the story this week is that you are one of the favorites to come out on top in this match. I would agree with these people, but there's just one flaw. I'm gonna be one of your opponents. Now I've heard all the stories about the bloody wars in the past that you've been involved in, but I'm sure you've never been in the ring with someone as determined as me. Kuk, your lifestyle worries me, your history sends shivers down my spine, but when it comes to competition, I am not afraid you. But I am afraid that your time will have to wait a little longer, because my clock's ticking a lot faster!

Did I miss anyone? Of course not, how can I not ignore someone as talkative, loud and obnoxious as Ash Soulsfate? Well, by sleeping of course. I promise that I've tried to stay awake during your promos this week Ash, I really did try. It's just that, with you bringing up my past constantly, even bringing up Ms. Biguns who I've gotten over by the way, I couldn't help but feel a little creeped out. Don't mean to be personal, but to me you kinda come across as a pervert. I mean, I understand that every competitor should research their opponents before every match, but goddamn, either you have too much time on your hands, or your looking to take one of us out on the perfect date! Feel kinda violated to be totally honest...oh, but I have to be honest, it was hilarious when you hired an actor to act as all of us. We all looked silly, especially that guy who was playing you, he looked and acted like a right dick! Oh wait...that was really you wasn't it? Oh well, either way, you're still full of shit. I mean, you come here thinking yourself as a hot shot, talking about how great you are, only to be tossed out of the ring last week like a sack of potatoes. Oh I know that happened to me too but more importantly it happened to you. Underneath this confident exterior beats the heart of a wannabe. Believe me, I know what a wannabe is, and you certainly fit into that category. In your world, losers stay losers, but in my world, as well as everyone else's, you're just a wannabe cunt...

You know something folks? I had my doubts earlier. I had butterflies in my stomach. This is the biggest match in my career so far, and I felt the pressure earlier. But you know something? I really don't have anything to worry about. I've come so far since I first stepped into an MPW ring, and I've earned the respect and admiration of so many fans. But now, I want to make a promise. I will never ever disappoint my fans. Win, lose or draw, I will not let you guys down no matter what. You've stuck by me for better and for worse, and I will always cherish that. That is why I'm heading into this match for the win. I know you'd all love to see me win my first ever championship, and I will not disappoint. At After Shock, while my opponents watch from the pools of their own blood, I will stand alone, triumphantly, with the X-Core title in my hands, holding that belt high above my head, and at that very moment, I will say thank you for your support, because I'll know that I did not let my fans down.

Brandon, Ash, Kuk, Jason, I hope you're all ready. I hope you mean what you say, because I certainly do.

I've overcome my doubts. Have you?
