"But...if you want to call me an egomaniacal prick, yeah, it's true. I can be that way." - Kevin Hardaway from GWC Straight Shootin' with Kevin Hardaway and Reckless Jack
So you're not ego driven? Seems that you've admitted that fact right there. With that simple sound clip, the words that came out of your mouth, you admitted to it a year ago. Rather funny that you still don't remember so many things that would matter in a situation such as this. That's been a problem of yours though, never looking up the facts, just choosing to blindly shoot off your mouth to the first person that'll happen to listen. Pretty small list these days but hey, at least you know one person is gonna be suffering through your words the next few days.
But you were ready to let the whole situation go? That's not what I've heard. Didn't you happen to mention me, by name, in another promotion? I believe you did Kevin. So it really appears you're ready to let all of this go by bringing up my name. Until my speech at XIII, I never uttered a single word about you in a promo. Might've referenced a situation but the fact remains that you clearly aren't over this. If you were, would you have accepted my challenge to this match?
All signs point to no.
I know you fairly well Kevin. You can hold a grudge longer then anyone I know. I've forgave people that were shitty to me in the past and they, in turn, forgave me. Yet when the time came to see if you were really over the past, you refused to acknowledge their exsistence. You've really done a masterful job of turning everything around the past few months to make yourself look like a helpless martyr in a worthless cause that you never admitted you were wrong in.
At least I've admitted my accountability in the preceedings that have led us to where we are now. At least I'm man enough to take my own actions into consideration and feel a hint of remorse for them. I would've have tried to apologize to you a day or two after I said a few over the top things in your direction. As usual though, when someone tries to be a bigger man, it all falls on deaf ears because you still wanted to be the martyr. You wanted people to believe that you were the single greatest cause of keeping GWC alive.
Even though its failed, you weren't the cause of the destruction completely. We're all guilty of killing that promotion. We're guilty because I walked out when the company needed me. My brother in law walked out when the company needed him. My brother walked out when the company needed him. So before you go off claming that you're the sole reason of GWC crashing, just look at the circumstances that surround the demise of what was a great promotion.
Quite a few of the current competitors here in WCF bid their time in GWC. But it was always me and you at the forefront. We were the two big stars and everyone knew it. As far as Omerta goes, you're probably right. Just remember one thing though, what I did was voluntary. Maybe if you weren't in the main event in that show, maybe your "Match of the Year" would've been completely overlooked by everyone. Just a hint of food for thought there Kev.
But you go right back to XHF though. Don't you DARE blame me for what happened to you there. Remember that I was in the same fucking stable with some of the stoned assholes? I still rose above it because I wanted it. It was never a matter of jealousy because why would I want to go down in the history books as a fucking four time XHF United States Champion? That's all on your Kevin. I wanted more and I took it. I got myself noticed, I made people look at me and say "Hey, that kid might have a future."
All you did was sit there and don't you fucking deny it. And now you come up with this whole "I never belonged" shit? However, if you knew you weren't going anywhere, wouldn't that be the time to jump ship instead of staying on for another few US Title runs? Just more food for thought.
Do you know why I hate you Kevin? Do you know why I want to see you suffer? Its all due to one simple fact. You bitched out. People are still laughing at you for throwing a royal fit and walking out when you had no reason to! Thunder said he was over it before you left. The only person still talking about it was you and you left for it. Like I've been saying, you were a martyr for no reason at all. You were just burnt out and you needed a way out and it all showed itself at the perfect time. You storm out, take a few months off and start over in a new promotion.
However, I was NEVER upset with you at becoming the top dog. As I recall, I was one of the first to congratulate you on your World Title win because you fucking deserved at the time. All the stuff you when through with XHF before leaving and starting new at GWC, reaching the top of the mountain in a few months. Hey, doesn't this sound familiar to you? A new golden boy comes into a promotion where I was and was plying my craft to take the main event? Huh, how about that...
I admit I went to EPW just to piss you off. I heard what you wanted to do through the grapevine once I signed up. So tell me, how good are you at letting shit go if you wanted to leave the moment I wanted to join the same promotion as you?
You can point your finger at me for "ruining" your career all you want. I know that deep down that you ruined your own career Kevin. You fucked yourself and you're just pointing the finger at me to ease the pain on your own mind. I almost feel sorry for you, almost. The crushing guilt that lays on your own soul for flushing your career down the toliet, killing all your connections to find a place to wrestle. There's always work out there for me, I just have to make a few calls.
But I'm a fucking pussy? I'm not a wrestler? Then what in the fuck do you call what I've been doing since you took your ball and shoved it up your ass? Yeah, I'm a fucking pussy for leaving GWC to ply my trade elsewhere, becoming the longest reigning World Light Heavyweight Champion. I guess I'm a pussy for nearly killing a guy who had the nerve to disrespect my dead son. I guess I'm not a wrestler either. Just someone who goes into a ring and stands there for five minutes before getting pinned. Is that what you'd call what I do?
Nah. You'll have some snippy comeback about how my family life has made me into a giant pussy, that I'd leave wrestling at the drop of the hat if something happened to them. Beforehand, I would but not anymore, not since my entire family moved into the same place. I know my wife and my kids are well taken care of while I'm gone. But I'm above you and I won't resort to any petty attacks on you and yours in such a manner.
If either of us would pull a Benoit, as you put it, it'd be you. I have plenty to live for. I love what I do and I love my life. Can you say the same thing?
No matter what happens though at Till Death Do Us Part, I won't leave standing. You won't either. I don't care if I have to slit your fucking throat, I will beat you and I'll end us once and for all. This is for the good of professional wrestling. After this match on Sunday, I'm glad your leaving so I don't have to.
So Kevin, what kind of emo bullshit are you coming at with me?
