Masaharu Tanabashi has decided to speak out about his actions at Crowning Glory.
First of all, I would like to make it perfectly clear that this not an apology for my actions at Crowning Glory. If there is something I should be apologizing for, it would be for not making good on my word to put Jennifer Nicole Shaw into retirement. While I may be repeating some of the things I've said before Crowning Glory, I feel it is necessary in this explanation that I have to offer.
As we all know, two things happened at Clash of the Champions III regarding the Gateway Title.
1. Hawaiian Hardhead became the number one contender to the Gateway Title in what can only be described as a "non-match" when his opponents decided fighting in the ring was too good for them.
2. Blake Gold and I fought in a Gateway Title match that was essentially declared a no contest. A rematch was scheduled for Crowning Glory. Blake Gold stole the Gateway Title belt and I got recognized as the person to beat in the Road 2 Glory to claim the Gateway Title bounty.
Those two things are what I consider a setback. I've had setbacks before so this isn't anything new. Unfortunately everything went downhill from there. At Crowning Glory, instead of being given my rightful rematch against Blake Gold, I get Jennifer Nicole Shaw as an opponent. The only way I can describe the feeling I had was it felt like getting a shovel full of bullshit thrown into my face. Not only do I not get the match I was promised, the match I did get was essentially a filler match. The one thing that is clear to me about Jennifer Nicole Shaw is she learned from the best on how to be a flake in the ring. After managing the EWF for so long, she decides she wants to "play wrestler" and I'm suppose to buy this? As far as I'm concerned, if she can't take the heat, then she should stay out of the kitchen.
This has essentially allowed Blake Gold to choose his own destiny and he has chosen to return the Gateway Title and give up his rematch against me. The fucking coward is only delaying his rematch against me. He should keep in mind that no matter what he does here, I have done it before him and I can do it again.
With that being another shovel of bullshit to my face, here are a few more:
Hawaiian Hardhead decides he can't hack it anymore and leaves. He has wasted everyone's time by showing up to the ring to become the Gateway contender at Clash III and not following through with the opportunity he has been given.
Angelica James is supposedly the new contender after PWE's executives decided that whoever comes up in second place in the Road 2 Glory tournament will be the Gateway contender. However, Amerie Rodriguez decided that since Angelica James doesn't have a PWE contract, she doesn't get to face anyone above Enemigo status. This counts as a shovel full of bullshit in both my face and James' face. She came in second place in the Road 2 Glory and that is contract enough to make this match.
I feel like I'm waist deep in shit and if I don't do anything, it's only going to get higher. Therefore, I demand a contender be named within two weeks otherwise I will be forced to the Gateway Title in the trash myself. The Gateway Title is not meant to be held hostage in this bureaucratic bullshit. Neither should it be held hostage by the Dylan Cages and Masaharu Tanabashis of the universe. It is meant to be a title for those wanting to prove that they are ready for the main event and the Universal Championship. If it is Amerie Rodriguez's strategy to bury me in shit, then she better bury me so deep that not even God will find me. If she doesn't, she's going to have major problems coming to her in the next few weeks.
