JONATHAN MARX: Ladies and gentleman of the press, I thank you for coming today. I asked you all here today because at Raucous, John Doe and I prepare for the fight of a lifetime, a fight for the sovereignty of New Era Wrestling and we ask each and every one of you to stand up and join us.
GOP would like nothing more than to pigeon hole himself and the title around his waist as a symbol of America, but it is that simpleton’s small minded thinking which will cause him to lose the title. For you see, New Era just doesn’t represent one state, one country, one continent… it represents the world. When you hold the New Era World Heavyweight title, you are the paradigm for everything good in the sport of wrestling around the world and when I win the world heavyweight title, I will not only be the world heavyweight champion of the United States, I will defend my title proudly among the finest fans in the world not only in America, but in Canada, Japan, and in Europe as a role model of what a champion should be.
GOP doesn’t understand that the world title is without borders or the sacrifices a true champion has to make, Jacobs and I have driven on more than one occasion across frozen lakes in our Lincoln Continental in the dead of winter on NEW Death Tours not knowing if the ice would give way underneath us, knowing if in fact if we did survive we would be “blessed” with the company of Rabesque. Does anyone here think that the Phantom Republican would wrestle in a city without an airport in the immediate proximity in order to wrestle for the New Era fans? The Phantom Republican thinks he is above taking the risk in order to wrestle in front those diehard fans. I may wealth beyond your wildest imagination, I may be a Princeton graduate, but I am a man of the people. As a third generation wrestler, knowing the struggles that my father and grandfather faced, I inherited a respect for this sport and fans that the Phantom Republican lacks.
After I graduated from Princeton University, I went to Japan to train among the best in the world in the top wrestling and martial arts dojos in order to refine my skills and learn as much about the sport as possible. What was my opponent doing? Instead of going off and trying to learn the ins and outs of this sport, he absorbed himself in political science, being a groupie for politicians, getting coffee and doing favors, doing anything necessary to try to squeeze his way into the door and be a player in politics. When his repeated efforts failed, it was then and only then that he settled for being a pro wrestler and you can tell with every speech he makes that he wishes that he would rather be in politics instead of pro wrestling. Wrestling is my first love, I was raised around a wrestling ring and I have it in my blood. Unlike Phantom Republican, I’ve fought in leagues around the world, gaining experience in different styles and environments in order to become the best that I can be because I know as great as I am, I learned a long time ago that you never stop learning and you improve by challenging yourself. GOP like Rabesque wants everything handed to him without having to work and when I face him at Raucous, he will realize what that inexperience has cost him.
When Phantom Republican is finally defeated and my long quest for the NEW World Heavyweight Title that I’ve poured my heart and soul into for the last two years is over, this sport will see an old school revolution the magnitude that this sport has never seen before and NEW will finally again rise to its former glory to become the best of the best. I’ve put my blood, sweat, and tears in my quest to win that title and come Raucous, I’ll either take that title from you or I’ll die trying.
God bless New Era, and god bless old school wrestling.
