Rebel In The Underground
Part VIII: Lasting Impressions
---------------------
Last week was certainly a busy one, with the sale of my apartment in Toronto totally finalized now and all that money in my bank account. That one issue that was on my plate sort to speak has been cleared off. But just as quickly as that one was done with on Monday last week, another one was added just as quickly. As it was time for me too prepare something for Valentines Day. I never understood why that so called holiday is so important, personally I hate it and don’t find the point of it, but right now that’s not important. That part of what happened last week might be a story for another time.
Especially since I’ve been focusing the better part of my time off last week getting new aspects to the business that was left to me by Reno’s father Mr. Drake. All sorted out and ready to open with me as the guy in charge and a cool name and a new look. Not to mention a great location that I’ve got my eye on and a few new features that we’ll be adding. All in all, I think I’m going to like having my own company. Some people that I’ve told in advance about the tattoo parlor look at me and ask why, because as you can clearly see, I don’t have any ink, just yet.
However not everything is as it seems with me, it’s not just about the tattoo concept as much as I like body art. It is however more about the fact that I totally dig art. Not so much in a abstract painting type of way, more like art to make a graphic statement weather it be on cars, in paintings, in magazines or other media. I simply find art to be important to life, for art can invoke many different things in many different people and only art can mean so many different things, to many different people looking at the same thing. Art is a very powerful thing and without art the world would be boring.
Just like how without me in the wrestling world it too would be boring and mundane as the rest of UX’s so called stars. Just like art is always changing and evolving so am I, for the art the masterpiece that is my life is still being shaped, by each stroke and each change shaping out exactly what my life will be. That figurative painting as it were is far from complete but with each passing day I get closer to starting to see my life take shape and if a picture is worth a thousand words and a work of art can me so much too so many.
If you wonder why I’m linked to something that is art based such as my soon to open tattoo shop the answer is clear, because much like the permanence of getting inked, I shall forever be remembered in this business as one of the very best ever. Not to mention, I’m shaping the life I want, with one intricate line, that was just as important as the one before it, so that I can experience everything that life has to offer, this is where I make a lasting impression plugging away in and out in and out, just like the needle of a tattoo gun into the skin until I have exactly what I want.
Life is all about who can achieve what they truly want, both personally and professional and make an impression, me I'm going to make a lasting one.
Just you wait and see.
Another pay per view is upon us, and when I was told I had to defend the Uncensored Title, I was cool with it because as everyone has seen thus far whether the title is on the line or not I’ve walked out with my hand raised in victory every time. Then I was told last week that Madison Cage was the challenger the first thought that came to my mind was:
She’s Easy…..
….I meant she’s going to be an easy title defense and an easy opponent to beat down in that ring. What did you think I meant by she’s easy?? Don’t worry we all were thinking the just as valid answer – but I’m not a childish competitor so it shall remain exactly that, just a thought and not verbalized but you clearly see the picture I’m painting here. Sure it might seem a lot like any other generic picture, and that’s exactly my point – and no it’s not that I’m a generic wrestler, Madison so don’t even try that angle. The reason that picture I have verbally painted is so generic and cliché is because the subject is you. It seems you try so hard to be a big player in so many different ranges of media shall I say, that in you desperate attempt to look like someone who has many goals, and who can conquer anything she tries to you end up looking exactly like every other girl that’s in the media’s eyes these days. I know I’m not the only one who has had to suffer through a promo of Madison’s including the concert footage and when it was all said and done, has sat there and thought – I’ve seen something very similar if not exactly the same done somewhere else, but because it’s so pop-culture, and expected from every teen that gets some sort of recording deal or TV show. That her display was just like every one that’s doing the same kinds of things, so you can’t put your finger on where you saw it before or who it reminds you of. That’s the reality of the situation for it happens because all the pop music and TV shows for the younger generation or basically the same recycled garbage over and over. No matter whose taking credit for what, You see Madison that’s the group you’re a part of – where every one is the same and nothing sets you apart from anyone else doing those samething’s See Madison, you might as well be living someone else’s life and singing songs someone else made famous because just like all young starlets (and I use that term loosely) You really have no talent and are the same as every other dime a dozen teeny bopper.
Face facts Maddie In the real world that’s not going to cut it. Do you really think that because you try so hard to be great at everything, you actually are? If you do then clearly you are miss guided, just like every other popstar/young actress with a camera basically following you around like a reality show out there. I mean every single time you come over the airwaves it’s the same old day time TV Drama about your life … you are honestly two drinks and three fights and make ups away to being the next, Heidi Montag with Colby G as your Spencer, and we all know how pathetic that was. Ya, that’s right everyone around the UX arena either heard your rather personal fight with Colby before you made up like some stupid typical made for TV movie. However let me say this, next time you decide to argue do that in private nobody really gives a shit about your personal life … or your professional one so just stick to music and TV even if it does seem at times like your living someone else’s life I just can’t put my finger on why. None the less as far as this wrestling match goes, take it from me there’s no way you can win because you see unlike in the entertainment world you can’t copy off other people and find success, you have to do it all on your own and from what I’ve seen from you thus far. You’re far to common Madison, granted I really can’t expect much more from you then being pretty much run of the mill. You’re a Cage after all and that is pretty generic and dime a dozen, I can think of like at least five different cages all off the top of my head that are in the wrestling business but maybe not related but the point is still this as a cage you are nothing but a dime a dozen. You know I’ve seen some of those predictions you’ve made as to the match outcomes and I love how you picked Adam Cage one of those times simply because he’s a Cage and when you have that name you always get the job done right? Wrong, why don’t you got ask him how fun it was to step into the ring with me, hell why don’t you ask Colby G. How it felt to win the Uncensored Championship because he was so much better then I was…. Oh wait that never happened. You see Maddie, just because someone is a Cage, in the case of Adam, it doesn’t mean a damn thing sure your name direct relation or not might be good in this business. Which is all fine and dandy normally, except your not stepping up against someone who is good.
Good is exactly that, it’s only good.
However I’m not good, Hell I’m not just better then you in that ring, I’m one of the best in that ring and not the old typical UX standard of the best either, where guys like Trevin Sands, Adam Cage, or Colby G. Where considered to be the best, No I’m in an elite group that stands high above you and the others that used to be thought of as the big time players around these parts. I am a front-runner and I share that spotlight with only one man, my fellow Iconoclast partner Reno Drake. Now correct me if I’m wrong but last time I checked you’re not him, so where exactly does that leave you? Well down in the place you belong, the mid card. SO you can go ahead and think that because you’re a Cage that it gives you some kind of advantage, you can go ahead and think that because your brother was the longest running Uncensored Champion, for now anyway until I break his record that is, and trust me it will happen. That because your related to him that it’s somehow going to hold substance to whether or not you’ll really have a chance in this match. I hope you hold onto that dream and pray that, your drive will be enough to get the job, done go ahead and hope that you’ll do your family and perhaps most importantly your brother proud. It will make the reality of the situation when you come crashing down to the mat from a vicious faceplant all that more sweet, knowing that your dreams and aspirations will be taken from you just as soon as I decide to end it.
You see Madison, at this point you really have no choice in the matter, sure you have the shot at the Uncensored Title that you think you want to have. The shot that you think will make all the difference because you have my number right. (I mean that figuratively as if you have the combo to take me down… not that you have my phone number. I know you want it desperately but it’s not going to happen so let it go toots.) But ya, I heard all about your gloating to your brother about how you are going to be the Uncensored Champion and how your going to break his record at some point and how the belt belongs to the Cage Family, all I can say to that is. BAHAHAHAHA-AHHHAHA… That’s too funny. I mean you better then me… oh yeah I can see that … sure Madison, whatever you say. I honestly know you that you couldn’t beat me if I handcuffed both my arms behind my back and laid back down on the mat with my shoulders touching the mat. You still wouldn’t be able to beat me, and that’s the honest to god truth Madison. Go ahead train all you want, enlist help from the world’s greatest trainers, get the whole cage family to sit at ringside, bring your grandparents down and have them stand outside the ring, hell have Colby G. Do guest commentating while your brother is the time keeper, make you’re Auntie Bobo the referee for all I care, none of that will matter, because when it comes down to it, you simply do not have what it takes to beat me. I have you all figured out and I know you’ll deny it and say that I don’t but everyone else I’ve faced here in UX has said the same thing and who is still standing in the warm glow of the spotlight? Who still has no losses to his name? Who has beaten every single person who was put against him despite each and every single one of them claiming to be better then him? Well of course the answer is me.
SO you see Madison, you can come up with whatever words of confidence you need to say to try and convince yourself that your ready, you can blow all kinds of smoke from your ass, you can try and tell me that you’ve got what it takes to take this belt from me. You can look yourself in the mirror and nod in approval that you believe you have what it takes, but this match is already over, and the winner will be me. You’ve already made to many critical mistakes and placed yourself in the hole and handed me the shovel, it’s not going to take me long to fill it in and make you fade to mediocrity where you belong. It’s not your fault that you’ve already failed, and I know you don’t understand how I can know, but I do and mark my words it’s all over for you, the only place the Uncensored title is going is back around my sexy waist. How do I know all of this so early in the week? Lets just say when I came out there on UXTV it told me all I needed too know, your eyes tell the true story your just to ignorant to believe it. OR maybe you truly don’t know because you refuse to see the reality, most stars choose the latter because as Paris Hilton has even said the stars are blind. I wouldn’t say I agree unless she meant blind as in ignorant and stupid. Either way from that one look on UXTV that we shared, I’ve seen the ending of this chapter as it were and let me tell you the ending is picture perfect.
Then again I always am – Because that’s just the way it is.
