Blade and Hixx make it to the backside of the stage area. Blade grabs a Microphone from a XHF worker and walks up the stairs to the black curtain. Cameras out to the arena side as the
crowd explodes with cheers as Blade walks out from the back with Hixx in tow, Blade walks to center stage and sits down cross-legged.
The Best in The World|Razor Blade: I apologize that i am not give you all what you paid me to
see. I could have come out here with all the lights, pyro, music, etc, but you'll have to forgive
me on this one; this wasn't planned.
The crowd seems to have calmed down a bit since Blade's arrival.
The Best in The World|Razor Blade: I have always shot from the hip. I really ask questions and I hate to be that person, but I afforded myself that ability by busting my ass off week in and week out for a profession that deems me a virus. As if me walking through that curtain would
cause the entire place to just rot away, exposing all of the foundation for what it is; Bullshit.
Blade looks out amongst the sea of NLW fans. he's turning some of them to cheering, but
others remain unhappy with him.
The Best in the World|Razor Blade: i have promised since day one to be as truthful as I possible could to all of you, to every one who loves this business. so, if you would, indulge
me.
This sparks even more cheers as Blade stands up and begins pacing the stage.
The Best in the World|Razor Blade: last Sunday I told you all that if by June 25th, 2022 I was not there to participate and I would not retire-
This causes the fans to erupt in cheers again.
The Best in the World|Razor Blade: I am still a man of my word, I'm not like the other guys in the back. I don't change my tune the moment things get tough, I dig deep and I keep fighting.
will I lose? Probably, but that's not the concern, Because truthfully speaking, I don't give a damn if I'm not NLW World's Champion by the end of this year, I know that as time runs out,
I did everything I could, that I left it all out in that ring. that is motivating to me. That
is all I need to keep going. I don't need any of you. I know that sounds very final, but
it is what it is I'm doing this all for me now. Everything is clear, I know what i need
to do, when I need to do it, and that upsets some of you. It also upsets A lot of people
in the back because I'm not following policy. I refuse to accept Anything that's said
back there because I know in the Grand scheme of things, even if you follow everything
by the book, line by line, your outcome will be the same. It doesn't matter what you do,
Everything is already pre- determined for you here.
Blade pauses while standing in between Latoya.
Best in The World|Razor Blade: So, why don't I sit back, enjoy the ride, and let things unfold? because that's not me. I've got a mouth and often times I have a Microphone in my hand. I'm
going to say what I want. I am going to do what I want, and if anyone has a problem with that
whether you're a Co- wrestler of mine, you're a competitor, or you're a Opponent... you know where to find me.
Blade drops the microphone and as fast as he was on stage, he disappears behind the blk
curtain with Latoya.
