I'm not gonna beat around it, I was robbed. AXW opens back up, I join up and win the Xperience title, right after that the company closes again. It comes back and I sign up, and I get stripped of the title? Seriously? Well, the higher-ups acknowledge the win in any case so I ain't really that bitter about it. I've spent way too much time trading my passion for glory. When I started this, it was because I *loved* doing it. I *loved* to fight and goddamn if I wasn't good at it. Then life happens, get married, get divorced, suffer on the job injuries, companies closing. I burnt down, hard but it's been a while and I'm back. When the AXW recruiter came calling, I'd felt something I hadn't felt in almost a year...The Itch. I felt that old ache to climb into the ring, to hear my music again, to hear the fans roaring. It's just something that might go away but no one ever shakes it forever. I couldn't say no and here I am, making this address. To probably everyone's amazement, I'm back in the game. I'm in the best shape I've been in, in a long while, healthy, whole and most importantly passionate. This time AXW, this time, we pull each other up. I'm not the young punk (pun intended) that I use to be. I won't bullshit you, I mean, I use to be full of so much bullshit and bravado...Things change. Livy Paige, Olivia, whatever she's going by these days, is going to be a tough day one hill to climb. I wouldn't have it any other way, I've spent my entire career climbing mountains. Fighting the best, men and women, forcing everything out of my opponents and more. That's the part that isn't going to change because it's fundamental to who I am, who I've always been. I don't JUST want my Xperience title back, I want the AXW title, but I'm also perfectly willing to do what it takes to climb that mountain. I want your best AXW, I want to fight the toughest roster members possible, throw everything at me. I don't want to be soft balled if I'm getting back into this. I'm jumping back in with both feet, whole hog, head underwater. That's what passion means, that's what it is to put a challenge on your back and carry it. I really can't wait for it, I'm sitting here beside myself ready to tackle this new era of this promotion that I feel so much for. I'm going to walk into this fight with Livy Paige, with ring rust on me. I know that, but it won't stop me. She's going to try and capitalize on that because Olivia is a predator, and any good predator would. However, as good as she is, she's only ever been a women's contender, while I've taken the fight to men and women all over the globe. I'm a different animal than she's ever had to contend with. Old tigers don't get any less dangerous, and I know exactly how vicious I am capable of being. I'm not scared of Olivia Paige, and I'm not scared of this first match. It's the first rung on the ladder. Let's do this, AXW. Let's do this.

So, I didn't know I had kids....Do I have kids? Not that I know of...I have no idea were Livy got that, just for anyone that wants to know. AXW's resident badass bruiser seems to be taking my pointing out her lack of experience personally, so I'm going to stop with that. Instead I want to sit down and talk about my experiences. I've got whiskey, my laptop and about an hour before I have to get packed up for Florida...That's a feeling, a real trip to be packing up my ring gear again. Last time I did that, I was heading home, wherever home was at that point. I'd just finished the fight of my life, a championship defense at that, against...Was three or four other people? I forget, it's all a bit of a blurr. That was that blew my left deltoid entirely out, damaged the trapezius. I already said I was working through on the job injuries and it finally caught up...After some bitches high heeled hell of a manager stomped all over my shoulder I was basically a one armed woman in that fight. But I am the One Woman Army. I take that name very seriously, I always have, I didn't win that match and I don't coddle myself about that loss. What I did do was walk out under my own power, I eliminated all but one woman from that match on my own, and I walked out. After that, I thought I was done, something inside me had snapped in a bad way. I didn't even want to go to rehab. I wasn't lying when I said I burnt hard, but I am who I am and who I am is someone who gets up, wipes the blood and grime from their face and carries on. No matter what. So I went to rehab, I found that joy in training and regaining my strength. I found myself steadied by going through the motions. Even if I did not know how, when or where I might ever unpack my ring gear again. AXW came calling, plum honest I'm goddamn surprised the Matthew's care to take the chance, and I'm under no illusion that they probably don't have much choice. Friday I have a match, just a day away, my first in a year, as of two days ago. I know exactly what kind of woman my opponent is, her absolute intensity is refreshing. It matches my own, because I am a match in gasoline, when I burn, I burn hard and like nothing anybody's dealt with before. My career was made on pulling crazy moves like doing a moonsalt from a balcony, popping my hip back in mid match, fighting a gauntlet battle royal and then another two matches the same night. Coming back after a year? It's nothing, a year almost no time at all. I'm completely healed, I have all the medical go ahead and more importantly...I feel that fire, it's in my heart, my lungs, my bones and it feels like it never left. I didn't just find the will inside me, this isn't me needing a paycheck...This is me ready to avenge myself, ready to get back up and carry on. I've been down to that place inside that everything out of a person, I've been to that place in a match where you think you can't continue, I have. I do. I didn't blink then, I'm not blinking now. I know I just admitted a real big weakness, but I want Olivia Paige to come for my shoulder, I want her good, and angry and prepared. Because I am. I've been watching and studying her too and I'm chomping at the bit to do this thing, the tiger is ready for the hunt. This isn't some come back, this isn't some triumphant return...This is F.M. Young, getting back to her business.

Well, that was a weekend wasn't it? Gotta admit, I crashed hard, like the entirety of Monday and if you press me into admitting it, Sunday's a little fuzzy as well. Back to Back shows was something I should have worked up to, but I use to do three or four every weekend, so two? I'll live, just gotta find my rhythm again. Those fights though, fuck, those fights. I gotta admit, I'm not super chuffed about the way that match with Livy went. I won, because as she's said, that's the way the game is played. Woman took her eye off the ball and I'm not so chivalrous as to NOT take advantage. So I did, but still, that was bollocks, who the fuck was that woman?....Wait, Red Hair, weird pole dancing, 70's music...Somebody PLEASE tell me that was NOT my ex-wife? I didn't get a good look, damnit, I hope not. Either way, that's a bridge to cross when I get there. If Olivia Paige wants back on my dance card, all she need do is ask, we'll make it happen. It's a match people want to see, it's a match I want a second crack at. For the moment though, I'mma leave mystery woman and all that mess to Livy's tender mercies. Speaking of matches I want a second crack at, Simon York. I'll be honest, I'm more jazzed about the way that went down. I'd rather lose outright than win on something other than my own. Yeah, that's right AXW, take notes. I don't tap, I just won't...So I ended up passed out. That dude has some skill, and obviously I wasn't as prepared as I should have been. Took me right by surprise, a model and a good fighter? Shit. Simon, let's do that again some time, I've had worse nights. So where does that leave me? Obviously, Hailey Harris is crowing for the big belt and in my not so humble opinion...If Saturday was any indication, Simon deserves to be the one to meet her. If she's been granted first rights, nobody's told me whether or not she's just talking out of her ass yet. I want the big belt, but what's next me for is as it always has been. It's simple. Fight. I'll take the Light Heavyweight Title and MAKE it something to be proud of, I'll go after the Xperience again...Hell, I'll take Ryan Goddamn Richards up on his challenge...Dude calling himself the workhorse of this company? No, pal. That's me. Put whoever, whatever you want in front of me, Luke. Give me any kind of fight, just give me a fight.

Damn! When I said I had to get used to doing two shows in a row, I didn't mean leave me off one! Naw, I get it, no hard feelings. Gotta let the others have their fair share right? I've got other things to do in the meantime, more training to go through, IWA to prep for. Got everyone over in HPW shook up because the announcement of my signing took place right before the number one women's contender's match. That's good, I like that. Let all of HPW be shook about it. Meanwhile, I'm in action on the Alternative...In action, Simon already made a keys to the Kingdom joke, but I just want a match. You ever feel like you've been sitting too long? Like everything you are is itching to get back to something that you weren't always missing, but that you have always felt is just your purpose? Yeah, that's me right now. I'll say it again, whatever Luke wants to put in front of me. Cody Larson, on the other hand, can keep my mouth out of his mouth, I do believe I said that York deserved to first crack...I don't want to be handed anything, but I'll be quick to remind anyone, I never actually LOST the Xperience Title. Still, whatever AXW has in store for me, is whatever it has in store. Want me to go through Cody Larson? I'll do that, want me to go through Hailey Harris? Set it up. I'm here to earn my way back to the top, I don't deserve anything, but I want to fight for everything. #HeartofthePhoenix #Heretofight #GuessI'mdoinghastagsnowtoo

HOT DAMN! Did everyone see that?! Did EVERYBODY catch that?! Cause I can do it again, if anybody missed it. I'll say that the moment I won the Empire Heavyweight Championship, I had considered that particular demon exercised by rights. Mom always said though, nothing is salve for the soul like good old fashioned retribution, and she was not wrong me old mama. There was always a little part of me, still shell shocked by reaching down to kick out of that second Kurtain Call and finding nothing there. A part of believed that there should have been, that I should have had fight left. Now? I know what I can do, I'm not the kid rookie that Kurt had to cash in on after three fights in a row. I know my strength and my depths and Saturday night Kurt found out what it's like to be in a straight up fight with me. You know what the final nail in the coffin will be? When I capture AXW Gold first. Alright, Simon, I was a lady about it. You beat me and I stepped aside to let you have your crack, but our dearest Hailey seems to think somehow with my name in her mouth that I'm in the contention with the pair of you. Far be it from me to dissuade her of her realities, right mate? As far as I'm concerned, that loss you took puts us on even footing in this thing. I don't care how, but I suspect we're all going to end up tangoing soon, and my sense of honor just isn't going to let me take care of Hailey first and then battle it out with you, gentleman and lady in the ring. I'm going to come after you both and I'm taking opportunities afforded to me, no offense, you're a handsome devil but I'm ambitious too. Horizon is still well, to borrow something out of Helena's joke bag, on the Horizon. I don't know what's happening between now and then, but I'm getting myself a good fight in the meantime. #HeartofthePhoenix

Main eventing Undisputed, huh? I like the sound of that, yeah being the first woman in history to hold their Undisputed World Championship pretty much sums up my EWS plans. I'm not really terribly picky though, I'll take the first woman to hold any of their men's titles and be happy with calling it progress in the right direction. Just some piece of history of you know? That's for a later date though. Right, here, right now? In AXW, you can better believe I'm 100% completely focused. As Simon so noted, we're getting our second go-round, pretty damn soon. This time, you aren't gonna be able to rely on those quick transitions and a charming smile. We've both got each other better scouted and I've no doubt you're as game to win as I am. If our match isn't already the main event of AXW 80. It will be. No doubt we're going to steel the show, except this time, I'm not going to lose. See you there, Simon. #HeartofthePhoenix #Itmeansyouonlywinonce

Look at me, a miracle has happened AXW, I'm actively agreeing with Hailey Harris instead of just sympathizing quietly. You want to get into this Kurt? Fucking fine, I'll beat your ass, anytime, anywhere, from corner to corner and here to there. I'm not afraid of you, but the minute you inference with MY matches? That's when I'm more pissed than sensible. You and I get in a ring together and it's going to be go time, I don't even care. You, and Harras and even York might THINK you can drop me to the bottom of the card...But I'm not staying in any ashes anyone's trying to bury me in. York and Harris can have their fight, for all I care...I'll butt out, but they can't have their fight AND the AXW title. I'm not letting that happen and I'm not sitting around letting Kurt Fucking Hullum weasel his way into a picture I WORKED my ass off for. I've been the fighting, goddamn near every show, I've been going out there...I'm the one who only lost ONCE. I had my shot at redemption at AXW 80 and Kurt blew that out of the water, because that glory stealing asshole wants to jump the line too.
That wasn't even a win for me Simon, don't you dare frame it that way. That WAS not the way I wanted that to go down, but apparently Kurt wants back on my radar and he can be fucking careful what he wishes for. Cause he's certainly right back at the top of my radar and goddamnit if I have to put the final nail in that goddamn coffin I'm going to. It's going to take a fuck ton more this time Kurt, which I should remind you and everybody else...You ONLY won last time because you waited until everyone else had beat the hell out of me. One on one? You couldn't do it. You won't be able to do it, because in AXW you don't have anyone to beat me up for you. Which....Haha, I get it. I supposed THAT'S why you waited until the title picture was full. Good idea, let the competition take itself out, but then again, that's ALWAYS been your MO when it comes to me hasn't it?
Not gonna happen. Not going to work, because it doesn't matter that there are three of you. I am THE one woman army, and I am going to Horizon to fight for the title.
