I feel like I have to do this.
As you guys know by now, I won the Deadly Rumble. The DR this year was different in that there were rewards for coming in second, third, and fourth. Traditionally the winner has received a World Title opportunity at the following PPV.
The idea was well intended with the hope that it would get people interested in entering. That didn't work out so well, but that's beside the point.
Gabriel and myself won our individual title matches. We then wound up as the final two in the DR. There lies the issue.
We wound up in spots intended to determine new contenders. In hindsight, I should have proposed staying out of it because we DID win the World/North American championships on the same show.
I dropped the ball and for that, I'm sorry. To everyone. While Rick and I have a plan in place to address the matter on Trauma, it doesn't make the outcome look any less awkward.
I want this to be a place that is fun for all who wish to do the hobby. A place where we can collectively tell our stories and have matches/feuds that are, hopefully, entertaining for you guys to read and participate in.
This was an unintended consequence and maybe it's just me and how I'm feeling. I made a mistake and I hope to learn from it, so that we can better develop things for cohesion in the future.
With all of that said, I'll stop here. Hopefully my words help things, and again, I'm sorry if this has created any problems.
