AXW Supershow IX

I'm going to add Alex Silver, Hailey Harris, and Kumquat Kid to my list for this time so those three along with Aries, Bruiser Lazzou, and The Push.

I will get you bios when I can.

I'm making the deadline for character submissions be this Saturday, so if you had characters you wanted in and haven't sent them yet, get them in.

Alrighty. Ladies and gentlemen. Just thought I'd post the guys I'm having in the show to double check and confirm that they are in(Also to make it public that I'm participating as I haven't said anything about it yet). My total roster for the show should look like this:

Jay Smith
Mike Massaro
Ryan Graham
Super Cool

Of course!

I'm not gonna sit here and lie to you that it's coming soon. I always get that itch to do this and get hit in the face with a lack of motivation and reality. Like I always do, I put off writing and then got swarmed with life. It's not fair for you to keep doing this, so I won't. There will be no more shows moving forward, Supershow or other, and AXW will be shelved once more.

I'll address some posts in the shoutbox here (the ones that I can see since I haven't been on in a while).

Nick, you're the best person around our circle. No, not one of the best, the best. I've appreciated your support and honesty over the years. I feel AXW is as much yours as it is mine. There have been times where we haven't seen eye to eye and I feel you've been over-dramatic at times, but I know it comes from a place of love. Whenever I saw there was feedback from you, I always had a bit of a sense of dread, because I knew if there was something in the show you didn't like, you would not hesitate to voice your dislikes. You've been the most critical on my work, and I thank you for that.

I know that Grimley was really interested in this place, and I'm sorry it couldn't come to be. If there is a serious interest in you and Nick running AXW, I'd be willing to let you guys do it if you think you could.

I left EWS because EWS was shutting down for the time being. I was literally the only show going. In my mind, it didn't make sense for me to stay if AXW was going to be the only EWS branch, so I split off. Side story, I was not a fan of Rise 2015. Nothing against Steve, but the show was more about him then it was about AXW. All those super climactic matches, some of which never got done. He wanted that ultimate super unification championship whatever ladder match to end the show, when I had said well in advance that Team Luke vs. Team TRENT would be the main event since this was determining AXW's future, whereas EWS at the time didn't have one. That story didn't have anything to do with anything, but I wanted to say it.

I started to get involved with BWF because they were also under the EWS umbrella. As a fedhead we voted on stuff for pay-per-views, and since I wasn't in BWF, I eventually joined so I could have a better view on what goes on there and not blindly vote for their involvement in the EWS ppvs. There was something about BWF that was new, fresh, and exciting to me. Dave invited me to bring AXW onto the BWF forum, but I turned it down because I wanted AXW to be its own thing. The BWF owning AXW thing was really just a storyline. BWF influenced me a lot, sure, but it was still me running everything. The only thing that was different from EWS to then was I had free reign of everything and could do whatever I wanted. BWF really had no involvement other than letting me use characters here and there and giving me new ideas by proxy of their shows. I don't quite get the hostility Nick has for BWF. There's nothing BWF should be blamed for when I'm the reason AXW ended up failing. If I didn't do the BWF owning AXW storyline, it would have been virtually the same outside the smaller things like Destiny Maverick holding a title for five days. Ppvs would've just been on ppv instead of the BWF Network. BWF had nothing to do with my laziness and lack of motivation.

Take this game as serious as you want to take it. I just know that it's not that big of a deal to me and I can occupy my time with other mediums of entertainment. I'm not saying that I don't care about this or I don't love it, because I do, but it's one of many games I can play. If you're not having fun, move to a different game.

I feel I have a justifiable reason why I'm so stubborn to get sustainable help. From Matt, Tony, that guy in EWS who I don't even remember the name of, Nick himself, Ben MacBeth, Blitz, probably others that I can't remember. Everybody who I think can help me in the long run only helps for a short while. Some had legitimate reasons while others fell of the face of the planet. I've been down to let people write a match or two, but there are times like this where I think that I have plenty of time to do it myself, then I put it off and feel like it's my responsibility to get it done and feel like I'm a piece of shit if I ask people to help me write a late show that I didn't even start yet.

Danny, I know those interested already have it, but feel free to shout out your fed. I'm definitely interested to see what you do.

So, finally, AXW Supershow IX. I'll leave the fate in your hands. Nick's not wrong, if this show gets done it won't be until 2019 because January is when I'll have a lot more free time to do it. So if you have faith in me to get it done by then, then I'm okay with that. If Nick is right in saying that no one will care by then, then I'm okay with that. You're not gonna break my heart if you want to move on from here, because whether the show happens or not, I'll be moving on too.
