"How many fuckin' years have I given to Evergreen? How many times have I gotten this desperately close only to have this damn title ripped away from me? Yeah, the boss man over on the so-called 'bigger' show isn't the only one who's been waiting a hell of a long time for this moment... I was one of the first to come back when Evergreen rebooted, the first in the door when it all started back up. Walked in the door, knocked off Kevin Royce, and never looked back! Never once showed a hint of fear or hesitation in that ring, but could never quite latch on to the big belt... the prize I've always had my eye on.

WELL HERE WE ARE! Invincible, doesn't matter to me! I got my ways! I got everything I need to crush anyone and EVERYONE in my path! You better damn well watch out, because Evergreen's on notice now... you're MINE! I'm not letting ANYONE stand in my way, no matter how important you think you are to Evergreen... I'm the undisputed biggest, BADDEST man there is around here now!"

"Part of me wonders a little... if I got inside my own head, after the Ascension. Was I just expecting people to be frustrated with the fact that I was the one who took it all? Took the perception that suddenly, the guy in charge is getting the shot at the big one? I feel like... well, frankly, that I might've imagined it all. But let's be honest here...

I don't think any of it matters, one way or the other. Not anymore.

Avispa wanted me to come after him. Wanted me to challenge so he could try and finally close the book on the era, on my generation. Wanted to finally bring me down and stand over the ashes as he burned the last of it to the ground. And let's be blunt about it: he could've pulled it off. Both of us threw everything we had at each other. Every last possibility. No hesitation, in one of the most intense matches in Phoenix Rising history. Mascara Avispa proved that he was never, at any point, a fluke champion.

But I had no intention of ever, ever letting him stop me. Not this time. Not after so many false starts, so many wasted opportunities... not this time. I'd never be able to forgive myself. Never be able to shed the last, terrible choke if I couldn't get this done.

Six years into Phoenix Rising... I haven't been World Champion up this way since well before that. This might be the last time I ever get to feel the weight of the World Championship... as mine. And I don't intend to just sit on this, watching and waiting while everyone clamors to be the next in line. No... I'm going to fight. I may insist that this be the first and only time I ever hold this title, and if I'm going to do that...

I'm going to make this reign the most intense, fighter's reign that Phoenix Rising has ever seen.

Showdown starts back up in a few weeks, going back to the every-two-weeks schedule from years past. And I intend to defend this title every... single... episode. From now until someone brings me down. You want your shot at the title? Come and take it from me. The door's open. I'll be a fighting champion until I physically can't be anymore... and then... I'll withdraw from championship contention for however long my career lasts after that.

I'll be here, waiting for the first one to take that step."
