Even though I lost at Sultan... I feel revived. Violent A took away my title, but he gave me in return an even greater resolve to become something I've been striving to be for the longest time now.

Eventually, I'll win that title back... but to do that, I'd rather take babysteps first. Get some things out of the way that have been bothering me for a long, long time now... matches lost that never should have been lost to begin with. Challenges fulfilled that before were left unanswered.

I'm cleaning my career up a little bit, removing all the black marks and tarnishes on what will have to be a spotless chunk of gold to get me into the plae I want to be: The NLCW Hall of Fame.

Cement my status as a legend, and continue to do everything I can for the company that's brought me closer to my dreams then anything before it... I love this place, and I respect the hell out of everyone in it: friend and foe.

Respect, however... doesn't stop me from whipping their ass-- Violent A and I were a testament to that train of thought.

So it comes down to you and I, Tyler, and while I do realize just how determined you are to beat me once again, and this time without the held of Violent A... I'm really going to have to apologize. Things may have been seemingly declining for me ever since Final Solution, but in the end? It helped me realize exactly what I've needed to do all along. I'm ready now, Tyler... and like it or not, you'll be my next stepping stone on my way to touch the sky.

With all bad things come the good... and despite losing the title? I think the good for me far outweighs that, in the end.

Good luck, man... you'll definitely need it.
