Hey everyone. As you may or may not know, today was the last KWO show. I wrote a myspace blog about it...
Goodbye to me and you, goodbye to the life we knew... wipe the tears from your eyes... then go and walk on through.
Those are lyrics from Night Train by The Bouncing Souls.
How do you thank the people that have stood by you throughout everything you've done?
How do you tell them that you'll miss their faces?
How do you explain to them that it's hard to watch any tape of your greatest moments because it causes you great pain and sadness... knowing I'll never be able to re-live that glory?
How do you tell people that you'll miss getting slammed on concrete floors and getting hit so hard in the head with chairs that it causes your ears to pop?
How do you tell someone that you have to sleep on your sides at night because those are the only positions that don't hurt, but you would give up sleeping alltogether because it was all worth it?
How do you tell someone that you're proud of all the scars on your body, because those matches brought out the best in me?
How do you tell your best friends: "Thank you, you made me the man I am today."?
How can you tell someone, that this is the closure that I need on my life, but you never want it to end?
How do you tell someone: "Thank you for everything?"
I hope I just did.
I want to thank everyone that sent me emails, encouragement, and those who actually gave a damn about what I've done over the years. It means alot to me knowing that all the hard work, the blood, the sweat, the tears, the emotion, the sacrifice, and the injuries were all worth it.
I love you guys more than life it's self.
Today was the last KWO show, at least for right now (possibly ever). KWO has been really good to me over the years, and has given me friends, and opportunities that I never had growing up. It gave me confidence that I never had before, and turned me into the person that I am now. I'm glad that I experienced it with the people that I did, although I wish Ben, Mongo, and S. Intense could have been there. I wrestled Cody Kelley, Blade, and Superfan in a 4 way dance for the main event, and in the last KWO match ever, I finally won the Hybrid - 1 championship. It felt kinda good to go out on top, it was very emotional and I'm gonna admit, after the match I cried a little. After the show, when everybody was leaving, I went back into the place to get the camera and Cody was standing inside there. I asked him if he was alright and he told me yeah. Cody has always been right there with me, from start to finish, and I was honored that I got to wrestle him in the last match.
Ladies and germs, this is it. I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that what i've been doing with KWO for all these years has come to a close. Time flies they say. I'll be saying goodbye to alot of things and alot of people. My friends, and by friends I mean my family. My true family.
I'm not giving up the tv show however, it's too good of exposure to let it go to waste. I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to do with it (I've been thinking about turning it into maybe a wrestling/reality show). I'm going to have to do some thinking coming up in the next few days.
I'm going to be finishing up my training with Nick Xero and Sky Devian coming up very soon, and my NGW and BCWA dates are still on and hopefully through Xero and Devian I'll get more indy dates and footage for the tv show. All I can say is that I'm going to miss it, but I know that the time is right for it to end... and who knows, maybe a reunion show will pop up one of these days. Never say never.
Thanks for everything, and that's to everyone (yeah, even the people I don't get along with as of late).
