    It Comes To An End
    If I can't work the way I want to without always being criticized I think it's time for me to move on. This business is full of people that in my opposite spectrum I would never associate myself with, and I don't think I'll do that anymore. So thank you to everyone who has helped me along the way, and thank you to those who constantly criticize because you've made it possible for me to grow up.

    What a week
    Wow more than one update in a year, you seriously should be impressed right now! Work has been a big pain, I should just quit and be a full-time professional like Mikael Yamaha, life would be soooo much better :-). My face has been making a slow but steady recovery, I had a bout with Bells Palsy in the past two weeks, my only concern was that it wasn't from any head injuries or any of the such. Almost killed Rob this past Wednesday with an exploder suplex, he said if I hadn't taken care of him he wouldn't be walking right now, THEN after that I Mick Foley'd my foot in the top and middle ropes. If you've ever seen how tight the CWF ring ropes are then you'll realize thats not a good thing! Then this past Saturday had a knock down drag out with Munkey, we pulled out some tight stuff and had a really good match. These days its hard to keep a crowd for over 5 minutes, so with us going over 20, I think we did a magnificant job.
    NOW on to boxing! It's been such a huge year for boxing. Iron Mike has finally hung up his gloves. I was very disappointed by his effort against a D class fighter. Kevin McBride sucks! Sometimes you just have to realize you don't have it anymore, and Mike is intelligent enough to realize that. The man who steamrolled Michael Spinks, Larry Holmes, and Tony Tubbs lost all his fire against Holyfield, truly sad. On a plus side he may be doing some fights for K1, and if he could get matched with Sapp that'd be freakin' awesome! I've decided since I'm cool enough I'm gonna produce a monthly pound-for-pound ranking to maybe incite some argument.

    June 2005

    1. Bernard Hopkins (Middleweight)
    46-2-1 (32 KOs)
    - Big date with up and coming Jermain Taylor July 16th, will win, but not in dominating fashion

    2. Ronald "Winky" Wright (Middleweight)
    49-3 (25 KOs)
    - The former 154 lb. Kingpin moved up for the first time ever and dismantled HOF bound Felix Trinidad, hopefully he'll capitalize on his momentium

    3. Floyd Mayweather Jr. (Junior Welterweight)
    33-0 (22 KOs)
    - He MUST destroy Arturo Gatti, for my sanity's sake!

    4. Erik Morales (Junior Lightweight)
    48-2 (34 KOs)
    - A fourth match with Barrera is a must....that or a move to Lightweight, where he could be a huge force in a already strong division

    5. Zab Judah (Welterweight)
    34-2 (25 KOs)
    - Made a complete turn around as a fighter and as a person, the guy stays so busy he doesnt even know who he's gonna fight before starting his camps, this guy will eat mandatory fighters for breakfast until a star steps up to fight him.

    6. Marco Antonio Barrera (Junior Lightweight)
    60-4 (42 KOs)
    - The only fighter in the past few years who has made a huge comeback and being "washed up". Will likely continue to feed on simple challenges until a fourth match with Morales presents itself.

    7. Diego Corrales (Lightweight)
    40-2 (33 KOs)
    - Awesome fighter in an awesome division. Stole the year so far with his fight with Jose Luis Castillo, and is seeking an immediate rematch with Castillo or a rematch with "Popo" from thier 2004 classic.

    8. Ricky Hatton (Junior Welterweight)
    39-0 (29 KOs)
    - I hate him, he bores me, but he did beat Kostya...Freakin' jerk!

    9. Manny Pacquiao (Featherweight/Junior Lightweight)
    39-3-2 (31 KOs)
    - The Mike Tyson of the litte giants, strong puncher, strong chin, dynamic performances, all around entertaining fighter. Hopefully we'll see a rematch with Marquez, Barrera, or Morales in 2005.

    10. Antonio Tarver (Light-Heavyweight)
    23-3 (18 KOs)
    - The king of the light heavyweights is back on his throne. An excellent showing against Glen Johnson sets him up with trilogy fights with Johnson or Jones. I personally hope he takes a journeymans approach and unifies all the light heavyweight titles again.

    3:26 am
    It's 3:26 a.m.
    It's officially 3:26 in the a.m., and with work tomorrow afternoon it's not a good thing. Last night ECW ran it's "One Night Stand" Pay Per View, and from a pure nostalgia sense it was a smash. The show top to bottom was fantastic, given there were no real "classics"; Everyone seemed to put out a genuine effort and turned the little engine that could into a huge success. My favorite moment? Oh just the sound of a certain "brutha's" music ringing through the Hammerstein moments before choking out Kurt Angle, it gave me goosebumps man. A blind man could tell you thats one of my key influences.

    I was thrilled to be able to watch the pay-per-view with my "bruthas" Stuttsy and Kingfish, without them it wouldn't have been the same. I Must add that Katie and Zoe were also in attendance, and Zoe was probably alarmed at my use of colorful language to describe Mike Awesome while on a 15 minute tirade. Hey, who said we aren't the biggest marks? I say all this while additionally Greg Valentine vs Tito Santana booms in the background. I've never been the type to be content with anything, but I'm starting to take the consideration of being a big fish in a small pond VERY seriously. Do I want to accomplish things in wrestling? Absolutely! My biggest of those goals is to have one match in the Tokyo Dome, but if it doesn't happen I have no reason to be disappointed with what I have done so far, and at age 20, with 5 years under my belt, I think I've done well for myself. On that note I think I will close with a list of guys I hope to work with in 2005...

    Justin Feech: The top of the heap in my opinion, my favorite Carolina cat running today, and hopefully if we ain't teamin' up we'll be hookin' up in the ring, one way or another.

    K.C. McKnight: Excellent talent man, just excellent, very fluid in everything he does, big future.

    Jesse Ortega: While many people have their opinion and/or reservations about him, styles make matches, and we seem to click...

    Brass Munkey: It can only get better, every single time.

    Hugh B. Johnson: Just so I can say I'm the bravest man alive to want to work HIM AND FEECH!

    "Slick" Ric Converse: It MAY not happen this year, but you better believe we'll have a lot of catching up to do, especially with the roles reversed :-)

    SAMOA JOE: It probably won't happen, but man am I ever ready if the opportunity arises!

    Thats about it for now, if I left anyone off I'm sorry, its really freakin' late dude! :-)
    'Night Ya'll
