The faster it takes for you to respond, the better for me. Especially when it becomes more and more clear that your arguments have become increasingly futile. Heading into this match, I will admit, I did not expect you to pour out this much effort for a guy who you seemingly considered as incredibly inferior. All week you’ve tried to deny that you were remotely even close to my level, that you are actually far beyond the box that I have been trying to fit you in, but if there is one thing that I’ve learned from all the commotion, it’s that you are desperately clinging on to this match, as deep down you know that this will be your last shot before you sink down to the bottom and go back to square one. Just like how I did Madison Kaline, I’m going to send you back to being forced to prove yourself worthy once more. And maybe, just maybe after I do that, you’ll eventually learn how to control your emotions and not let them overcome you especially when you’re given the turn to speak, and that in your next efforts you’ll cherry-pick your words instead of speaking just so you could say that you spoke. That’s the big issue with you, the fact that you’re constantly trying to one-up your opponents in hopes that you’ll maintain the upper hand, when in actuality it is far more likely that this backfires, and before you know it you start muttering aimlessly, the sense in your sayings begin to fall apart and become easy ammo for your foes. I noticed that your responses to Joso ahead of your King of Elite match were nothing short of half-baked, which surprises me even more now that this time around, you decided to step it up a notch against a guy that you've made your life's mission to undermine. Calling me a nobody, a guy who's his own worst enemy, just another guy that's going to lose against you, but all these things you've said about me have already aged poorly. Now despite you showing obvious signs of increased determination and alertness to keep on "one-upping" me as I like to call it, in your latest response the utter lack of effort is more than palpable. This all goes back to what I said about you being oh-so insistent on being right about every single thing that we've argued about, and at the same time, it also exudes a slow burning road towards failure. The failure to defeat me that is, but you know I actually pity you, Amir, and I hope that this one defeat doesn't turn into 10, I hope you manage to turn this around. Though to be more realistic, you'll actually refuse to listen as you always do, and this unsurmountable stubbornness will lead you to keep making the same mistakes that have been holding you back, the ones that often separate great Elitists, and Elitists with great potential. For instance, your rejection of my recent responses because you feel as if I keep on repeating myself, well here's some food for thought: your surprising incapability to properly argue with other people shines throughout whenever you open your mouth, because it is your utter desperation to dwell on talking points that you clearly lost on, that will ironically bring you closer to losing, because you fixate on things that are rendered irrelevant by me, instead of finding new mistakes or potential holes in my comments that you can jump on. Not only that, but man the intensity from only moments ago is missing from you now, and I suspect this is a sign of acceptance to the fact that the odds are in my favor now. As I've observed, you're not even repeating yourself, you're repeating things that I MYSELF already said about you and trying to use them against me just by their mere mention, rather than relying on proper reasoning. Meanwhile, I have countless reasons to tell you why you're just constantly projecting, I've explained these before but to give you a bit of a crash course: exaggeration of achievements, still remaining unsatisfied with achievements, constantly being overlooked, lack of consistency in performance, etcetera etcetera. It's funny because most of these don't even apply to me, meaning that for the majority of this week, all you've done was treat me as your damn psychiatrist considering how much you like to pin these on me.
You know what, just to sneak something in the middle, I noticed in your previous response that you mentioned about how I apparently tell an incomplete story (another projection by the way, just to remind you AGAIN of Lucas Johnson), because you say that Limmy and Bronson were in the company longer and thus was able to achieve more than you. You also pinned this on me to try and make me look terrible because I entered EAW in similar time period with these two, but as I mentioned previously as well, I have actually been in the company for less than you have (it is also possible that we've spent our careers in EAW for similar durations) considering that I never finished a season whereas you have, so your excuse for not achieving as much as you could have considering all the opportunities you've been served on a silver platter were squandered. You also love to talk about how you apparently never undermined or underestimated me, and that I've overestimated my own ability yet there is no indication of that this week. Despite how I like to go on about how you repeat yourself, at least I still put in the effort to listen to what you say and think about the best way to approach it, whereas you've reached a point where you've abandoned the most basic thing to do before you respond to your opponent. Admit it, I'm more determined than you have ever been in recent time, yet I'm sure it's going to come as a surprise to you when you later find yourself lifeless in the middle of the ring, getting pinned by me for the three count. You have an obsession with flaunting your achievements, most of them being what I considered to be glorified "employee of the month" awards, because it is a sign that you are desperately clinging to your past. Because you have realized how much better you were in 2021, maybe even 2022 as well, and these so-called accolades are your only way of reminding yourself that you were THIS good at a point in time, and that unfortunately, you are in a level that seems far from what you were able to do before. In simpler terms, you have become the shadow of the performer you were, who still acts if he was the same guy that won Rookie of the Year in 2021. No, you've stooped as low as to call me dogshit despite constantly reminding me this week that it's actually my fault for overestimating myself, when in truth it was just me standing up for myself as a guy that is often treated like a waterboy no matter how many times I prove to be much more than just another nameless face. As much as it infuriates me to argue with you, it remains my obligation to stand up to idiots like you to prove that I've got what it takes to challenge for championships. That regardless of whether or not you try and force me into whatever label you want, whether I'm a "jobber", "dogshit", or a "nobody", nothing's going to stop me from fighting Limmy Monaghan for the World Heavyweight championship. You can keep on telling me that I am undeserving, because at the end of the day it was LIMMY'S choice to give me the title reign, because he wasn't man enough to try and kick me out of the company again, instead he caved into the pressure and gave me exactly what I wanted. Many people know that I am one of the few people who likes to openly speak out to the powers above for depriving me of opportunities that I've worked hard to deserve, but now slowly and surely, all the puzzle pieces are fitting in the right places. Starting with my triumph over you, Amir, will be the story of how I overcame the odds to finally make my dreams not closer, but inevitable.
Now before I leave you to instantly respond to this knowing that you want to talk just for the sake of talking without any regard for substance, I would just like to say that it is astounding how you must be the most entitled, spoiled brat in the whole roster, which seems impossible when you're facing a literal billionaire. All this chattering you've done about whether or not I deserve this opportunity, it all somehow comes from jealousy even though you've been given more chances than I've got fingers and toes. And I know this for a fact because you say it sickens you, it enrages you to see someone just walk in and be handed the golden ticket to the main event scene. Let me repeat that this was the choice made by Limmy Monaghan himself, and while that isn't necessarily an indicator that I deserve the opportunity, we can of course look at just where Limmy has often ended up whenever I'm around. He is reduced to putty that is played around and toyed with by either me or Soul Food Sunday. If I can catch the World Heavyweight Champion off guard, who's to say that I can't push him to the brink in an actual match and come out on top? If there's three guys who know Limmy Monaghan better than, say, Adam Lucas, for example, then those guys are Jake Smith, Donovan Duke, and yours truly, Maxwell. To answer the question, do I have belief in my abilities to overcome the reigning champion? If we're basing this solely on my ability, of course not, because as you said it's not all about the ability. But the knowledge I have and the drive that has been coursing through my veins to push me to keep on fighting back against you this week. No matter how difficult or no matter how frustrating it has been to try and tell you about things I already talked about, I was never ever complacent, nor did I ever take this match lightly. With those tools in hand, I believe that I have a chance to succeed, and I don't need anyone to validate me, and I'm sure as hell not going to need an incredibly self-centered, delusional manchild to tell me that I don't have what it takes, or I don't deserve it. I'm glad it annoys you that I'm heading to King of Elite with not just a World Heavyweight Title match, but a match GUARANTEED. Who knows who you'll be facing, anyway? If it's not going to be my return that is going to eat you alive, then I hope it's going to be the current uncertainty of your trajectory that finishes you off because boy, you better savor these moments. Next thing you know, you're back to facing guys like Lucas Johnson and Shane Gates, hell maybe they'll rename you Michael Jack and in no time, you're going for the Woogieman's prestigious BBB championship. Of course, I'm only exaggerating there, but the point remains the same, you better enjoy this while you can because after I'm through with you, you're not going to be hanging around top-tier talents any longer. All these things you brag about, like the MVE awards, those are not enough to keep you afloat. Neither are those statement performances you mentioned like the one against Limmy Monaghan in Justified Reckoning. I've had statement matches too, against Adam Lucas, against IDOL-GUN with Donovan Duke, in the Brand Warfare match with Team Malosi, against Chris Elite. These were some of the greatest challenges of my EAW career, all of which I succumbed to, but man I poured my heart out and learned something new in each and every one of them. I want to say that you've gone stagnant, but even that is not true because you are going through a downward spiral by refusing to learn from your mistakes, and as a result inadvertently allowing them to define you. When you ramble under the disguise of dedication, it only further proves how you've managed to make yourself appear undeserving of the opportunities once bestowed upon you when that really was not the case a few months ago. But now that you continue to ignore these problems, you are being consumed, more and more people are given a reason to stop believing in you, or even questioning as to why they saw you as a star to watch. The truth is, the more you've been exposed to the spotlight, all the arrogance and self-love has reached your head and has clouded your judgment, rendering you unable to compete any further. You don’t need to be humbled; you deserve to be. Time and time again we've all seen that you never win when something's on the line, or when it matters really, and now with your spot at the main event on the line, what will you do?
