[[The scene is quiet as the fans are buzzing. The arena seems still when suddenly Gaia Bleeds by Set Your Goals its. The fans boo as Johnny Clash walks out to the stage. He is in T-shirt and jeans with the World Heavyweight Championship around his waste. He doesn't pose, doesn't mad mouth fans and doesn't flinch when his pyro goes off. He climbs between the ropes and stares at the crowd biting his top lip. He takes a microphone and the crowd goes silent awaiting what he has to say. Johnny hits the microphone against his chin and finally speaks]]
Johnny Clash: You know something, about a year ago I was sitting home when I saw an add for NYCCW Wrestling coming to Madison Square Garden, the World's most famous arena.
[[The crowd pops]]
Johnny Clash: only a train ride away from my home but previous contract obligations forbid me to attend other companies shows. Instead technology helped and I sat down on youtube and I watched for hours, classic matches. There was Van Gorgeous, Nick Malone..
[[The crowd pops for the names]]
Johnny Clash: Austin Jackson, Raven the list goes on and on of great Legends to have graced us with their presence in this ring. Unfortunately I didn't have the privilege of working with all of them.
[[Johnny clears his throat and paces]]
Johnny Clash: Those guys were the back bone of this company until the day they left and it's their matches and moments that live on and what NYCCW thrives on.
[[The crowd cheers and chants NYCCW!]]
Johnny Clash: This place brought me out of my shell.. this place gave me character and I earned the respect of many. But just like Nick Malone, Van Gorgeous and all the rest... they had to pass the torch.
[[The crowd goes silent and the camera pans in on a girls face in shock]]
Johnny Clash: You have to pass the torch so the next guy can come in and do what you did.. only better. Hell these guys backstage right now are Legends in the making.
[[Johnny looks at a loss for words as he stutters to start another sentence]]
Johnny Clash: As you can see I am out here by myself.. No Rage, No Laura, No Herman. And there is a reason for that.
[[The crowd looks intrigued as Johnny stands in the middle of the ring and wipes sweat off his forehead]]
Johnny Clash: You see we were told by an unnamed individual that we acted too much like 'rasslers. Oh well i'm sorry I thought this was a WRESTLING company and I come here to wrestle!
[[The fans start cheering]]
Johnny Clash: If I wanted to be apart of sappy, lovey dovey emo bullshit I would read my wifes copy of Twilight.
[[The crowd laughs]]
Johnny Clash: The fact of the matter is this. NYCCW has been my home for a while now. I have had my greatest moments here. I have held the All-Action Title longer than anyone has ever done so. I have also held the NYCCW World Heavyweight Championship as of today a total of 69 days. Not so bad if i say so myself. My true accomplishments came from NYCCW and you fans.
[[The fans start to cheer]]
Johnny Clash: I know just last week I was out here bad mouthing you guys calling your girlfriends fat and what not but hey this is a WRESTLING show and i was being a god damn WRESTLER!
[[The crowd cheers once again and the arena starts to chant JOHNNY CLASH!]]
Johnny Clash: Please please.. i'm not out here as Johnny Clash I am out here as John Caruso. Everything I am saying is coming from my heart right now. I couldn't be more pleased in NYCCW until that moment when we were told that this isn't a place for WRESTLING.
[[Johnny pauses and the crowd simmers down]]
Johnny Clash: I thought my contract said wrestler on it.. but that's just my opinion. I guess the W in NYCCW stands for Weiner... yeah i'm talking to you sock face!
[[The crowd laughs as Johnny smiles and points in to the camera]]
Johnny Clash: Unfortunately I had a choice to make these past couple of days and the choice has been made. For Drake Hunter, Apostle Kried, Rye Payne, Chris Cable.. god Chris Cable we put you through hell I love you man!
[[The crowd cheers as Johnny starts to tear]]
Johnny Clash: For everyone who I had my most memorable moments with. I thank you for everything and I wouldn't have had it any other way.
[[The crowd starts to chant PLEASE DONT GO!]]
Johnny Clash: So with that... As I mentioned before I came out here alone. We were given the choice. Stay here and live in fairy tale land singing bubble gum pop songs and wearing paintball masks.. or we could start over somewhere wrestling stands out. Bob Herman, Rage and Laura Tavares' contracts have already been terminated.
[[The fans are silent and the camera pans in on sad faces]]
Johnny Clash: I told management that I would say what I had to say in front of the people who matter most and the guys who call the shot. you fans...
[[The crowd cheers]]
Johnny Clash: I hope for years and years to come you stay here with this company and watch these amazing talented wrestlers rise to the top. But I also hope you don't forget about Johnny Clash. As for my decision..
[[Johnny puts the mic down and the crowd is silent]]
Johnny Clash: With this last statement.. my NYCCW contract will be officially terminated.... Thank you fans from the bottom of my heart for making this happen and for one last god damn time... MY NAME IS JOHNNY CLASH!!!!! AND I DONT FEAR YOU I FEAR...
[[Johnny holds the microphone up to the fans who say "FOR YOU" and than begin to cheer as Johnny puts the microphone down on the mat and looks around him. His eyes start to tear and his music hits. The crowd gives him a standing ovation and he begins to tear up. He walks up the ramp slowly and when he gets to the top he looks out at all the fans standing and cheering for him and he takes the World Title off his waste. He holds it high up in the air and closes his eyes as the fans cheer for him one last time]]
OOC: It is really unfortunate how things went down because I honestly love this place to death. I look at it now and it seems totally different which sucks to be honest. I never wanted this to happen but some people got their wish and im going to be hitting the road. As Rage stated in his DB post, we will be starting MPW this week, the board is already up at mpdub.proboards.com Im not telling anyone to follow me and im not telling anyone to leave this place but that's where i will be.
To Drake Hunter: You are one hell of a writer and I have never met anyone like you in my 14 years of doing this. My suggestion is KEEP NYCCW GOING. Look at TNA.. people gave TNA two months before it closed down after the Jeff Hardy incident and now its one of the top rated shows on Thursday Night. Everyone has their down points but its not time to give up. You have an amazing staff of guys who are willing to help you expand to even greater heights. As a former fed owner with WEW that lasted 3 years I know how it is when everyone leaves and you are left with a smaller roster.. pick yourself back up and keep this place going!
To the Roster: I have never met a more amazing group of roleplayers in my life. If i could i would recruit every single one of you for MPW but loyalty is key. Chris Cable.. we put you through hell with TWI but it was one hell of a time and I loved every second of it. Apostle Kried you are simply the best roleplayer in this place hands down.. keep it up. Raven (if you ever see this) You were a great Tag Partner last year and we connected on so many levels. I wish you were still around to this day so we could tear it up again. Austin Jackson (probably will never read this) but you were also a great rival and we had some epic matches. Lindsay Caloway, glad you joined 2sWo and I was able to bring you in to NYCCW. Keep up the good work. To everyone else.. it has honestly been the greatest pleasure working with you all and I hate to go but I have to. Please keep in touch you know where to find me and you know my website. Thank you everyone.
