“Candice Blair has busted her ass all season.” — Eden Sinclair
“I don’t know about you, but that felt good to hear. Especially, from a woman who I clashed with in the past.
But, deep in my heart, I knew that I have busted my ass all season. Grand Rampage in April was the wake up call I needed to see that I am meant for so much more in this company. I have found myself in the cusp of championship gold all season. But, as I reflect on my last couple of championship opportunities — New Breed, Unified Tag Team Championship, National Elite and Specialists Championship — I have come seconds from achieving the one thing that I have wanted to accomplish since December 2019. Within the last week, I marked six years that I have been a part of Elite Answers Wrestling. Six years and the only accomplishments come from two ‘Ultimate Opportunity’ victories that I never fully captalized on. Two victories that I will always be left wondering ‘what if,’ but realize that there’s no use in dwelling in something that I can’t change. The only thing to do was to look at the results, look at what’s already happened and do what I can to make sure that the next time was completely different.
Last week on Voltage, I was provided with an opportunity to team with an upcoming talent in NICK to face Cosmo Goldworthy and Diego Montana. Despite NICK and I being victorious, I look towards Diego, who left Cosmo vulnerable for NICK to captalize on. Now, this tag team match was an opportunity to scout the competition and see what I can pick apart going into ‘Fuck Your Thanksgiving.’ I don’t know about everyone, but I had a stellar Thanksgiving. I did a little Black Friday shopping as I thought about winning this match and getting my hands on this ‘Ultimate Opportunity.’
First of all, shout out to you, NICK. Thank you for securing the victory for our team last week. I know it must have sucked that you couldn’t do that to Diego, but there’s always the opportunity to do so this week. But, don’t mistake any kindness for weakness. I’m a professional wrestler who isn’t kind the moment that she steps into the ring. I have been in this situation time after time again. I have found myself in situations where I have come so close to securing championship gold, only for it to be taken away from me in a blink of an eye. Territorial Invasion is the latest example of that. It was a tough pill to swallow. The thought of when you know that you’re better than someone and it doesn’t translate inside the ring. When you think that you have a perfect game plan, but one slip up can cost you the entire thing. I hated myself for showing a moment of humility of a fallen opponent. Especially, when it’s a woman who would have never done that to me in return. For a woman, who I have defeated in the psychological game, she was able to use her own form of dirty mind games to roll me up and retain her championship. I don’t do well with dirty tactics. I know that we’ll see someone like Diego rely on them, but I’m above all of that. I expect you to be above that as well, NICK. From your great performance last week, the last thing that you need is short cuts. Despite this four-way being no disqualification and no countouts, you have shown that you are more than capable of handling yourself. With those two things removed, it makes you that much more dangerous and something about that worries me, but at the same time, it intrigues me. It adds a layer of unpredictability because there’s no knowing about what you’ll truly be capable of the moment shit goes down. But, I have one simple request: if it comes down between the two of us, I want this to be a clean fight till the very end. If you want to captalize on that rise, you need to do it with your own capabilities. You need to do it with your two hands. You can throw your hardest punch at me, your most brutal knee, your sharpest elbow, but that’s not going to be enough to take me down. You think that wondering how Diego Montana is going to duck you like the coward he is going to help you prepare for me, but you should be figuring out how you are going to prepare for me. I have poured blood, sweat and tears for this sport. You understand that for sure, but I know that you have as well. Last week, we saw that inside the ring, but your fight is going to need to continue on a bit longer.
I’m not going to lie, Cosmo, but I was disappointed with what I saw from you last week. Maybe, it was me that was expecting more from you. At Territorial Invasion, you showed signs of growth. The one thing you had over me was not finding yourself pinned by Ashlynn Quinn and somehow, you found yourself taking a turn at the wrong direction. You managed to secure the victory over Diego Montana at Wicked Games. That’s something else that you have over me, so last week should have been another feather in your cap. Instead, you allowed for NICK, someone who hasn’t been here for a cup of coffee get a victory over you. Now, I am interested to see how you turn this loss around for yourself. Yes, you could argue that Diego left you high and dry like the coward he is, but do you believe that you fought as hard as you possibly could? Do you believe that you went into that tag team match and gave it everything that you had to offer? To me, I think that you held back. Maybe, there was a strategy into play. You could have been saving your energy. You could have been thinking about the bigger picture. Maybe, you could be pulling an Ashlynn and using this as a ruse to catch the rest of the competition off guard. I wouldn’t put it past you, but what makes you think that this shit is going to work on me? What makes you think that I won’t see your bullshit from a mile away? Especially, when it might be my last opportunity of 2025? I lose this match and honestly, there’s no fucking clue what happens to me. Who knows if I find myself on that Road to Redemption card? Who knows if I’ll be blessed with another opportunity to make something out of myself? I am wrestling like this could be my last opportunity, period. I am not here to give a quarter of my effort, half of it or ninety-nine percent of my effort, I am giving it my fucking all. If I need to go past my limits to secure this opportunity at the expense of some talented and hungry Elitist, I am going to do that. I am hungry for this ‘Ultimate Opportunity.’ I don’t care what it is, but I will make the most of this opportunity. I will go all the way with this opportunity and not have my dreams crushed once again. I expect you to lock the fuck in going into this match, Cosmo. I want you to show everyone that last week did not put a dent in your plans to get your first championship in EAW. I know that you have it within you to become something great, but before you can do that, you are going to need to fall. Maybe, once or twice or twenty-billion times like myself before you can attain the greatness that you desire.
Diego, I wasn’t impressed with you whatsoever. I mean, leaving Cosmo to fend for himself? That reeks of cowardness. That reeks of insecurity. That’s small dick energy right there, my friend. Not only that, but I am like ten seconds away from going to our HR department to report the harassment from your last video because it gave me a giant ick. There may have been a time where I wouldn’t mind being objectified. If this was a year ago, I would have embraced the oogling eyes. I would have loved the attention on me, but this year? Not so much because I feel like I have a lot to bring to the table other than being looked at like a piece of meat. People always talk about my looks and how goregous I am, but they want to ignore the work that I do inside the ring. People want to ignore the work that I have done since Grand Rampage. I went from Halsey Neel saying that I don’t put effort in any of my videos to a fantastic showing at Grand Rampage to defeating Selina Reyes at Pain for Pride to defeating Saori Aizen at Bloodsport and giving Ashlynn Quinn the fight of her fucking life at Territorial Invasion to having Daniella Atlas rip me apart to secure the victory for herself. You may look at me and think: “damn, I want to take her on a date,” but you should look at me and think: “damn, I better take her seriously because she’s a threat.” At least, that would make you more self-aware and knowledgeable rather than making an ass of yourself by thinking that you’re some ladies man around this brand. You are the type of man that takes men back to a dark age in this company where women were fighting for recogition and be taken seriously as elite competitors inside the ring. You are nothing more than the scum underneath my boots and I will have no issue with wiping your snot and blood on your unconscious body. You shouldn’t be focused on me, but you should be focused on what happens when someone like NICK gets his hands on you. You should be focused on what happens when Cosmo sets his sights on you and wants to dismantle you piece-by-piece until you’re left a complete mess. You shouldn’t be a factor in this match, but still, I know that I cannot underestimate you and what you’ll be able to bring to the table. You could very well sneak away with this victory over me. You don’t even need to pin me to sneak away with this victory, but I am not here to allow people to sneak away with victories over me anymore. I’ve had that happen at Territorial Invasion. That’s not going to happen again. You could look for all the shortcuts imaginable, but they aren’t going to work on me. Just like your piss poor attempt at trying to flirt with me.
I’m sorry, but I’m into Canadians (if you know, you know).
Gentlemen, if no one has told you to not sleep on Candice Blair, I just did, so take that before this match tomorrow night. NICK, you’re going to need to wait a tad longer. Cosmo, you are going to need to get your shit together before something happens. Diego, go take a long walk off a short pier.
That is all.”
