| So here I am, an hour or so, give or take a few minutes, before possibly the biggest match of my career. It's crazy to think that just a short three monthes ago, I was a nobody. I was the guy who ran the independant feds, I was an household underground name. Then I got the call, the call that said I have been picked for a try out, a try out that would put me amongst the ranks of BUD talent, if I impressed. As you may know, I did indeed impress, and I was given a match at 2007 Wayz 2 Die. I saw a chance to become the new THC Champion, and well, what can I say, I took it. Pretty soon, I had beaten former OCW megastar, Evan Pierce, and won the THC Championship in the same night. It was just the first of my impressive streak.
Bobby Johnson, one of the greatest talents of all time, was the BUDvision Champion at the time I had come into this company. Back then, no way did I plan on taking it from him, a shot at the BUDvision Champion had never even crossed my mind. I planned on working my way up, capturing the Franchise Championship first, and then maybe I'd attempt a BUDvision shot. Johnson soon left the company due to personal problems, and I didn't know it at the time, but Johnson would indirectly launch my career into what it is today. He opened up the BUDvision Championship to all, and I was definitely part of that all. A battle royal was established, an eleven person battle royal, that would crown the new champion. I thought, why not? It won't hurt anything. Maybe I can get my name out there a bit. I soon found out that my talent exceeded further than I thought, as I was crowned BUDvision Champion.
But that's all in the past, and I'm not here to dwell on the past, I'm here to live in the present, and look towards the future. The reason I bring up the eleven man battle royal, is because it's what got me into this predicament. I won the BUDvision Champion, and proved that I was a worthy champion. Although I could never measure up to Bobby Johnson, I vowed to keep the prestige of the BUDvision Championship, because it's simply what Johnson would have wanted. Who would like it if you had to leave a federation, dropping your title, and then it all goes to crap? I would definitely be pissed if that happened, so I would keep it away from the slimeballs of BUD.
I proved that I could keep my word as well, as I defended against the evils of Manic and Leaky Format. I hope it's clear that I mean buisness when it comes to protecting this championship. Looking at the BUDvision strap on my shoulder, it brings back the fire in my eyes, all all I have to look forward to it my current defense.
During the eleven man battle royal, there was one other person that could have easily come out as the victor, if I hadn't entered. She went by the name of Emerald, and by word of other, she was somewhat of a rookie as well. I didn't know much about her, all I know was that I had to beat her, it was that simple, and I did. Little did I know that it would come back to bite me in the ass later on down the road. I suppose she became obsessed with revenge, and would do anything to capture the BUDvision Championship. Unfortunantly for her, she had to work her way up, and she made it all the way to contender number two. Well, not really. Actually, she only earned a number three contender spot, and Manic was number two. Looking back, after Manic disappeared, she was just moved up.
Then I did the unthinkable, I struck a deal with the enemy, which was highly stupid of me, looking back on it now. I struck a deal, that if the Leak Guards came out to help Leaky, then Emerald would come out to help me. In return, I would have to give her a title shot, whenever she wanted. Of course, after she dropkicked Leaky into a cage on fire, Leaky wouldn't have Emerald taking a title shot that she didn't deserved. So she was forced to face off in a tag team match against the Leak Guards, with Whisper as her partner. Leaky couldn't compete, because he was to badly burned. Lucky for her, she got off easy. Defeating the Leak Guards with Whsiper at her side, wow, that must have been way hard.
That isn't the point, the point is, she got her title shot, and it's in about an hour, against myself in a Last Man, or Woman, Standing Match. I have to admit, i am overcome with emtion. I feel like I am about to throw up, but I am trying to keep my mind off of it, thinking of other things. I'm trying, but it isn't working very well. I had my eyes closed, thinking of what the day would bring. Well, despite the next hour or so, the day had gone well. He had landed safely in the specified town, met Abram at a bar, and was possibly having a party after the 4:20 event. Despite this match, the day is great. All I have to do is get through with this match. Give it my all, go all out, and hope I get through it with the BUDvision strap around my waist.
Why am I feeling this way? It can only be explained in one way. I know that this may very well be my very last hour as BUDvision Champion. True, even if Emerald was to defeat me tonight, I've still successfully retained the title twice, which gives me a title shot rematch in my contract. Despite what Emerald may think, once I get my rematch, it will most definitely not be on her terms. It will be on mine. This wasn't on my terms, what makes her think she controls the world if she becomes BUDvision Champion? Emerald reacted to certain things in ways that I didn't expect her too, she turned out to be someone totally different than what I thought. The only reason I agreed to her title shot, and was content with the BUD 4:20 matchup, was becauce I thought she'd be a good champion.
Bud it's different now. She was decieiving, and is obviously not fit to be BUDvision Champion, which means I must keep her from winning it. I've said many times that I am the somewhat savior of the BUDvision divison, well this is my ultimate test. The ultimate proof that I am indeed the savior. Truth be told, I am in for one hell of a match ahead of me. I don't expect to win, because I know Emerald has talent, but all I can do is go out and do my best. I have heart, and I will not stay down. I will be the last one standing.
I have to win this one, for everyone who has believed in me these past three monthes. It might not be anything big, like a World Heavyweight title shot, but this is big to me. I'm headlining a pay-per-view, and putting my title on the against one hell of a tough competitor. This is a big deal. Me, comming from the indy background, where in DW we had to tape a fricken' table back together because the budget was so low. I'm the champion in a Main Event for a big time wrestling promotion. If you would have asked me where I would be on this day and time, I probably would have said something along the lines of sitting around with the stoner kids and watching them tweek.
The door to the parking lot, where I had been standing, opened, and a stagehand stood in the doorway, "Zarek, what are you doing out here? You have like an hour until your on, you need to get dressed and do your stretches before your match."
That's it. No matter what happens now, know that I will forever be the protector of the BUDvision divison. Even if Emerald pulls it off, I will make it my personal mission to see that she loses that title to someone more deserving. Alright, well, this should be fun...
