---------------------

It's been quite the week let me tell you, first off I was on top of the world going into Danger Zone. I had a shot at the World Heavyweight Title, and to be honest I thought I had the match in the bag. That wasn't the case though and on that night Legend once again proved why he is the champion, and why I am still the rising star.

That's alright though, I'm dealing with things one day at a time. Like take back at the party in the Iconoclast locker room after Danger Zone. Sure I was in a less the party mood, but I still kicked back and celebrated with those invited to the party. After all it wasn't just about me or just about the Clast, it was about something Epic.

One things for sure, I was much more quiet then usual that night, mainly keeping to myself and only speaking if spoken to for the first hour or so. People that I respect came up to me different times and still gave me props on a hell of a match. Other then that though, they respectfully didn't bother me, as I'm sure they could tell I needed some time to reflect.

Which was rather difficult, on that occasion it wasn't my fault though. The music was loud and I was also drinking quite a bit that night to take the edge off. One thing that Iwas told during that party though rang true. It was that there will always be another chance for me to become World Heavyweight Champion. It was the best advice I've heard in a while... well aside from "Dude, Don't stare..." Told to me by Chris Roman, after I accedently checked out Athena for to long, while she was dancing rather dirty like over in the far corner of the room.

Anyway like I said, I would be able to work my way up for another shot. There was no point in me beating myself up for losing to a man like Legend. After all that was my first world title shot ever, and so what I lost to one of the best... in my first World title match. In my rookie year at the age of twenty one. That loss is really no big deal. I will earn another shot, at somepoint, and that is really all that matters.

Well that and I so talked Alli into handing me her company credit card, during the Danger Zone show to buy some supplies for what I told her was just going to be a Clast party. Of Course after what happened at the end of Danger Zone show, I'm sure she regreats letting me use the company account. Especially when I really used it to buy more food, way more drinks than were needed not to mention entertainment, for an Epic Wrestling Organization party.... some might call what we did wrong or a screw job, but trust me it's the best choice any of us ever made, of course it is the brain child of Cody Clark so why wouldn't it rule. The great thing was we stuck it to BwF and we partied at there expense thanks to Ali Taylor and the BwF corporate account... and all for a party she wasn't even invited to...

Ah Well.... I guess you could say that was our farewell up yours send off to the BwF, and heading on to the start of something Epic.


This week I have a match against a man, who goes by the name of Donnie Hoyland. The only thing I really know about this guy is he used to wrestle in the LWA, other then that I have no clue about him what so ever. I have never once seen on of his matches, and I can't seem to find any tapes of his matches either. Seems almost like when LWA died, it died in a heartbeat and any and all history went with it. Which means I have nothing to work with as far as coming up with a plan, however when you think about it, if I can't find nothing on this Hoyland, then really how important can he be?

I suppose that really doesn't matter all that matters is that this week, is the true start of eWo and I plan on making an impact, sure I might not be walking into this company as the champion, but that's just the way it is. This match though gives me the chance to start working my way back up the ladder. I really can't ask for much more, in fact all I've ever really asked for is a chance to showcase my abilities, and that has worked wonders so far. I don't really need some gimmicked persona or to go out there before the fans and pretend to be something I'm not all I need to be is AJ Donavon.

That's almost always been enough, my only true slip ups have been against veterans in this business, and that's saying something, because it goes to show that I'm learning more each and every time I go out there. The only people who have been able to beat me have been people who have been doing this for such a long time it's there only nature. To me it's still a second nature, but I'm getting better each and everytime I step into that ring. So I ask you Donnie Hoyland, what are you going to do? Are you really ready to prove yourself?

I doubt it.

Sure you might have been kind of important in the LWA, that's all well and good, but ya see this is eWo. This is EPIC, this isn't a run of the mill place, and whether you want to consider it this way or not, I've technically had one match that shows my importance in the eWo. It might have taken place in a BWF ring, but it was still for the World Championship of this place. Now while I didn't quite get the job done, I still proved that my place in among the main event. I stood toe to toe with the Legend and even countered a couple of his finishing move attemps. He'll never admit it, but I still proved to him that while maybe, I don't deserve to be the world champion just yet, I damn sure belong in the main event picture.

That's a point I plan on proving once again as I step into the ring with you, for it doesn't matter what part of the show you might be worthy of wrestling on, all that matters is that I'm going to prove that I belong in the main event. You might be a mid carder, you might be a main event guy, I don't know. Really I don't care, because this match is only about proving your worth. Something I have done each and everytime I walk through the curtain. This will be no different, my abilities speak for themselves Donnie. I hope yours do as well, because I'm looking forward to beating a man that is actually credible.

For we are fighting for a chance to put ourselves in a good spot in the rankings. I'll be damned if I'm going to let someone top me now. After coming so close to a world title win, it has done nothing but motivate me to get another shot at that gold. Will it take a lot of work, of course it will but I'm willing to go those seemingly endless amounts of steps. It just turns out that you are the first step in my journey back to a World Title match. See Donnie, even though I know nothing about you, I can't help but think that so far your not going to be as competive as I thought you would be. Considering you haven't said anything yet, and you didn't have a big match last week to recoup from first, like I did. Yet I've still spoken first.

In the short sight of things that might not mean much, but see to me it shows something about commitment. That's something I've always had, I never want to be shown up, I like to make sure that I prove my worth everytime I go out for a match. That way when I say I'm the Trendsetter, it's not just casue it sounds cool. No it happens to be true, Sure I've had a couple of miss steps here and there my most recent being to Legend but through all that I've gotten better. I might have lost but with every loss I have, I learn something from it. I'm still young and getting better and better each and everyweek. It's unfortunate really that you've been put in my way, because now I have to crush you in that ring.

I just hope your not overlooking me because I lost to Legend, because that would certainly be a big mistake. See I know what I can do in that ring, I know how to use everything in a match to my advantage, I know how to out think and out wrestle my opponent. So I'm not worried about being overly or under prepared. Point is, I'm prepared bottomline. I've learned from the best in this business, and slowly but surely I'm becoming one of the best in the business. Are you going to be able to stop that from happening Hoyland? Are you ready for this match? I don't think so.

You might be sitting back thinking that your on top of the world that a match with me is going to be easy. It won't be though, I'm not some stupid rookie, sure I'm still In my rookie year, but I'm not by any means stupid or a rookie. After all I've been right up there near the top of the mountain. To be quite honest I think I'm still right up there, not quite as close to the World title as I once was, but I'm thinking I'm still up in the main event material. That's something I don't take lightly, I know it would be easy to say oh ya I'm the main eventer, nobody can beat me but no that's not my style.

My style is bringing the fight right to you, whether it be verbal or physical come match time. It really doesn't change the fact that the outcome will end up the same with me walking out the winner of the match. With me standing over your battered and broken body. I'd like to tell you that I when I say my future is so bright I have to wear shades. That I'm just trying to be funny but I'm not. The truth is my future really is that bright, and yours is starting to look very bleak.

Very bleak indeed.

This might be my Affliction, but this is shall be your nightmare.

Endo.
