All hail the Spectacular King!
Let’s not get confused. This was no easy feat. Brenna Gordon is officially the best singles star in PCW. The Iceys declared that. Not Grimm. Not Alexa Black. Not Andy D. It was Brenna Gordon and it’s hard to argue against it. Sure, Grimm is on top of the mountain with an undefeated record against her but she came in here, stormed the castle, almost downed Grimm and almost took the Icemann Invitational Tournament. That level of achievement has to be almost unprecedented.
Now she gets to go on to bigger and better things while I hold it down in the Underground.
And it starts this week with Justin Michaels.
Some would say it’s the perfect Stormm to shut down my reign before it gets off the ground. Me? I say let it pour. He’s a former World Champion, a former North American Champion, a former Genesis Champion, a former Icemann Invitational winner. In comparison, I’m nobody, right?
But isn’t that the best place to be?
Think about it.
It’s easy being the big name, being the known commodity. Things are quite a bit different when you’re in my shoes. Sure, I’ve got the gold but maybe it was just the right night. Maybe enough things went my way to lead me down the right path. Maybe it had nothing to do with me.
The Perfect Stormm or a Paradigm Shift?
It’s easy to assume that the new guy is going to fail. Hell, why bet on me now? Vegas damn sure isn’t going to have my back. This is the big stage, Return to Glory. Why pick the erratic kid over the proven veteran? Why think that the trend is going to switch? Up on Starr, down on Saniti.
Maybe you’re right.
Or maybe you haven’t looked at me close enough.
When I say I’m All Day, that doesn’t just mean wins in the column. It means going above and beyond. It means being spectacular even when you think I should be completely gassed. It means beating the odds even when the odds beat you from time to time. Get knocked down nine times, stand up ten. It means more than some numbers on a scorecard.
It means I got everybody watching.
Why pick me? Shit, it’s not my job to convince you. It’s not my job to convince Justin. I have this championship and you’ve seen me do some amazing things. Murdoc may not care about much but he’s going to remember me taking flight for damn sure. It’s my job to keep everybody talking. It’s my job to keep everybody watching. I’m good at my job. This championship is great and it’s a start. All legends have to start somewhere.
Look at Brenna Gordon.
Don’t kid yourselves. You know it’s only a matter of time before she appears on a hall of fame ballot and she just got here a few months ago. She started right here in the Underground. She handed me the torch and I’m responsible for keeping this thing going.
Bring on the rain. Bring on the lightning and the thunder. Bring on the hail. Bring on an attempted Return to Glory but this guy? He’s going to weather that Stormm. He’s going to fight the wind currents. He’s going to wade through the doubters, through the haters, through the known commodities and common assumptions. This isn’t going to be Justin Michaels’ Return to Glory…
This is going to be Glory Personified, All Day.
It’s good to be King.
