I love how they think that they are rewarding me or somehow quelling me by booking me in a match with Zach Rizza. See I was in a place with Zach Rizza years ago West Coast Wrestling Association I think or maybe it was Alliance hell it doesn't matter either way Zach has made a hell of name for himself since he came to Boardwalk hell even winning the Casino title, a title that I was supposedly in line for another shot at but it has just not happened. So you all think that little match with Gennie last week was something that was me going through the motions but a match with Rizza that is something a whole lot different. I can see what the man is doing, I see that he is ruffling feathers and getting under peoples skin and I am guessing that he will try to do that to me as soon as he opens his mouth, I wouldn't be shocked that he did that. I don't know what type of person Zach is these days, battle hardened? Possibly, driven? Without a doubt but the facts are like this I don't know the man and I don't really have anything in common with him anymore except out past, I mean we both did fairly well for ourselves in WCWA but that seems like a lightyear away as to now. I mean I saw the little promo for the show and I know that they think that me and Rizza were vocal about NOT being included on the Collision Course card and Rizza should have the bigger gripe. How do you NOT include one of your champions on the card? How do you justify that? I mean you bring in someone that has barely even been in Boardwalk the last few months in Darin Zion? I mean I just don't get it, I mean you might as well brought in Brian Hollywood and the Davidsons as well because that is the mindset that the Boardwalk management is painting but that is none of my business, with me not being a full time member I know my place now.
I have been here showing that I am part of the roster, been proud of what I have proving my worth nearly beating Carlisle and Collins when I had my chances and in fact beating a former champion in Myris but that really doesn't matter in all the things now as Rizza now hold the title, the win over Myris doesn't mean a damn thing and to be completely honest I am not sure what does anymore. I mean the build up says that Rizza and myself are looking to make an impact...really? I mean who the hell wrote that? I am wondering what the hell do they mean when they say “make an impact” I mean I have been here bidding my time and even doing the right thing and not taking shortcuts and you would think that doing all the right things would get someone noticed, I mean the fans noticed, even the Guys Podcast noticed but I guess that the management here in Boardwalk never thought that was something of value that wins over champions was not really that important unless the belt was on line and then I don't even know what Rizza did to get the shot but again that doesn't really matter.
As for Rizza not doing enough to get on the card and making an impact he should have a bigger fucking itch then me, then a lot of people. I mean he beat Bryan Williams to win the damn Casino title, THAT along should have gotten a spot on the card but in the end it didn't so now we are relegated to the regular shows, we are basically being told that we are good enough to main event one of the regular shows but not when a really big show is going on and well lets be honest we probably wouldn't even main event this show if the rest of the roster was here, be honest people we are just being given a bone to hopefully keep us smiling and waving at the fans.
And that is all well and fine if I were the type to smile and wave at the fans I am sure that Zach doesn't really pander to the fans or the staff but this has to be a huge slap in the face to him. I mean there are Boardwalk wrestlers that could have been left off in place of the Casino Champion but you know what Zach how 'bout we show the Boardwalk staff what a huge mistake they made by NOT involving either one of us on the show. I think we need to make sure the fans realize that the Collision Course show has nothing on us, that we can do ANYTHING that the card that booked for Collision Course can do and in some cases we can can do it better. I think we need to show each and every person that didn't want us on the card that they made a huge mistake. I am not worried about getting a title shot, I am not worried about what will happen if or when I might lose to you, what I want to do is make sure that the Boardwalk staff realize that this was one of the biggest mistakes they could have ever made and I want them to regret it with every minute our match is broadcast this week on Xtra. You are the Casino champ for a reason Zach you have went All In a time or two around here and now I am going to ask you to bank everything and throw some chips out there to the dealer and let it ride. I don't want you to hold back, I don't want you to think that this match is nothing, I want you to throw caution to the wind and show each and every one of the haters that this is the biggest mistake they could have made. Hell maybe we break out the WCWA shirts again and show the fans how a couple of old stars do things NOW.
Either way Rizza I don't have any problems with you, in fact you have become a way better wrestler then the kid I saw back in WCWA and that means you have evolved, you have changed the way you have done your routine and I can respect that. I don't know what kinda man you are now but at Xtra I plan on finding out and one way or another we are gonna show the fans what we can do in the ring.
I am gonna come out there and offer to shake the hand of a fellow WCWA alumni and then I will see what kinda man you have become Zach...and that will tell me what kinda champion you are as well.
I guess I will learn a lot about the kind of person you are this week...

[Noah fast fact: Had a guest appearance on 'Gotham' last season]
[Now Playing on Spotify: Nothing it's off]
[Mood: Slightly Irritated]
[Noah is shown sitting on his couch watching the Royals versus Tigers on MLB.net on his laptop, he also seems to have a few other windows open on his screen as he is looking for things to do and looks at a website and starts to look through their selection of comic inspired t-shirts. Cassandra comes out of the bedroom and sees Noah sitting there and seems to be uninterested in just about anything else in the house. She walks to the fridge and grabs a bottle of water and then walks over to Noah and sits down next to him and kisses him on the cheek, which gets his attention, he turns his head and smiles slightly and turns his attention back to the game on his laptop.]
“You ok?” she asked after she took a drink and sat her bottle in her lap. “You seem a bit preoccupied.”
Noah shrugs. “Just wanting to wind down before we have to catch that flight to before heading to Mill City, just want to relax and not think about anything else except some baseball.”
“Don't you think you should be training for the match with Siscoe or even for the match with Zach Rizza in Boardwalk?” Cassandra asked.
Noah never even looks at his fiancee but instead keeps looking at the laptop and then finally answers. “What kinda training could I possibly need for someone like Siscoe, I have faced him more in the last six weeks then I have anyone in the last six years. I don't need to know anything special about him he is a creature of habit someone that says and does things the same way each and every match. He is like a god damn broken record, if he wins then so be, he was the better man but to be perfectly honest he shouldn't even be holding the belt because Aidan Morag screwed me. I am going to beat the ever loving shit outta Elliott and take MY Outlaw title back where it belongs.”
“Well that is all well and fine but what about Zach Rizza? Do you really think you are ready for someone that is the quality of the Casino champion. You worked two matches at the last Contraband and then the Jeckel match AND the match against Camondy as well don't you think you need to take some off and give your body a chance to recover?” Cassandra warned as she looked at her fiancee with concern in her eyes.
“Do you really think I need to slow down? Do you really think that I want to do that? Do you think I need to be better prepared?” Noah barked. “I have done everything for those two companies and neither one even approached my management team about appearing for either promotion but I am still good enough to be booked on the weekly shows....fuck that.”
Cassandra looked at her man confusingly and then took another drink of her water and slowly got up and walked over to the kitchen. “Well what do you plan on doing?”
Noah shook his head and angrily snapped his laptop closed and then walked over the fridge and grabbed a beer tossing the lid off the bottle onto the counter and then taking a long drink. “Do you think I have some sort of plan? All I want is my title back, all I want is to get my hands on James Edwards one more time and show him that leaving NAW was a mistake, that working for people that are going to turn on him as soon as they have used his soul up and discarded him like they have probably done with so many once I have said my peace, once I have gotten it through his skull then I will finally have MY peace. And as soon as I do the same to Zach, as soon as he sees what is going on right in front of him....maybe just maybe he can truly be the star he should have been in WCWA.”
“What about you?” Cassandra asked. “What does that leave for you?”
Noah chuckled a bit and then drank the rest of his beer and sat the bottle on the counter. “Me? There is nothing left for me these days, just doing what I have been doing in NAW, that is really all that matters these days. I guess I am getting tired of getting used and shit. I guess what I am saying is that I guess I have started seeing the end that is at the end of the tunnel, I have finally figured out that maybe my time is over in the business that maybe I don't really need this anymore.”
Cassandra stood there in shock, she really didn't know what to say, it's all she wants is for her man to walk away from all the years that he has put his body on the line for a business, a sport that uses up bodies and tosses what's left like husks of corn that has been shucked. Was Noah broken? She doubted it. Was he mad? Without a doubt. And that is simply BAD for everyone else in his crossfires...
