William and his mouth, how much do we have to hear it? We know that the guy has been on the wrestling circuit forever, going from federation to federation just to do what he does best and that is take on any wrestler who has made ratings on a night when he didn't. To be quite frank, the Feature Presentation has simply had enough if it when he first met the man in the British Wrestling Alliance and although he tried to shut him up there, he failed. Why? Simple: Davidson was still learning the ropes at that time and Mercy was extremely talented. But this isn't a rip on how long he has been on the wrestling circuit, it's about the old pretending to be hip. Take a look at Mercy, what do you notice?
"The New Generation"
You have got to be kidding me, right? There's nothing new about William Rodney Mercy except the most recent medical disorder he has developed from old age. Ostioporosis, broken hips, loss of hearing, bad back and those damn noisy kids; we know the whole list of complaints from Mercy and there can't be one person that can walk by him without getting the fist shaked at them for being a ruckus. But whatever keeps Mercy busy these days won't be stopped. Nobody can find a place for him to stay for life because he's like a gypsi: he won't stay in one spot, not ever. We might as well just let him flock around all over the place and challenge who he wants, when he wants. And believe me, he'll find a reason to fight you, whatever it takes.
"You want to know the answer, Mercy? To me, wrestling stopped becoming a game, a hobby or even a job a long, long time ago. I guess you could say that after I vacated the Reckless championship about a year ago, that was when my passion for this business started to fade away and even on my absence it was fading away. I tried to bring the excitement back into it by going under a mask during my so-called disappearance, but it wasn't working, I wasn't feeling it anymore and then I knew that was it for me, then I knew that I no longer had the heart for this industry no more. But why did I stick around, why did I remain? Because it was a chore, it was something I was apparently good at and people dug me at the time. Besides, I was paid good money for the kind of wrestling I was doing, so why turn it down? But now, I don't think that I can really go on, to be honest. FWA looks to be the end in sight, and maybe it's best to keep it that way. Nobody wants to see me anywhere else, you all just want to see me die so you won't have to worry about the next time I piss you off. I know it's something that you all wish for, so just wait, that day could come when you least expect it. And then how will you feel? Would you be as angry then as you are now? Will your thoughts on me change? Feel sorry because I was a good person? Here is what would most likely happen: at my funeral, whenever that may be, you will all be there... talking about how I was a good man? Not sure, but really, I don't care."
A little odd to hear about he is talking about his death day already, it's not really something that you would expect to hear from him or anybody else days before his last wrestling match. One would think that he would be showing emotions of happiness since he'll finally hang up those boots and pack everything away for awhile, but apparently that isn't the case at the moment. Burn out may be the reason why.
"In my last match, Mercy, I might just give it all I got... I might just prove that I can do it once more and once again. I might not look at it as a job for one night only, I might look at it as a real sport where there is real competition. You know, if I really wanted to, I could walk into that event and have the attitude that I had about two years ago when we first faced off in the ring. That would obviously be something that you would like to see from me, and Mercy, if you want it: you'll get it. That attitude is rare nowadays, it's not something that you'll see often from the Feature Presentation, but it will come when it has to be out there. This is the most perfect occasion and situation where I can show such an attitude off and after all that I did to this crap federation, I think I at least owe it to them and to the wrestling industry... one more time. Is that something that you want and need, FWA? Is that something you're looking to see from talent, exclusive or temporary? Well, let's just say that you've got it and you'll be the last to see it from me."
Despite how much disrespect he has shown the FWA in recent months, he is going to decide to put those issues aside and wrestle this last match the best that he can. He knows he did wrong and although this match might not do much to lessen the heat, it will at least be something to make things a bit easier and better between the two parties. Some can only hope for that.
"So therefore, Mercy, I'll be willing to sacrifice everything I've got. My bones, my body, my neck and my ability to walk. I don't care no more, if this has to be the one last show that I wrestle in, I might as well throw in everything I got that could possibly end my career because after this, I won't care about a career anymore. A life-threatening injury? It all sounds good to me, and you should expect more than a life-threatening injury from me; expect multiple. I'll do more than bleed for the win, Mercy, I'll break and pull for it. You could be very well correct when you say that if I have the opportunity to kill, I won't take it. I'm half the man I used to be, there's not a person who can deny that. People who have known me from the British Wrestling Alliance have seen the changes, they have seen the alterations of the Feature Presentation. I'm in worse shape, I'm in worse condition, but I still have the mouth I had when they first met me. All of them know how much I want this break, but it's another thing if they think I actually deserve it. But either way, it's happening, one way or another. Unhappy? So am I."
In some wrestler's eyes, Davidson doesn't deserve this break one bit. People might say that he doesn't deserve it since he hasn't really done anything noteworthy except take part in a few contendership matches in the past year or two. But that is stressful to some and it really takes a toll on you, punishing your body worse than you think. A lot of motivation goes away and that's not really something that people like to have. Breaks are nice. Really. Breaks are nice.
"It must take a lot of creativity to paint on the canvas with my blood, William, but by all means; if you think that you have that chance and if you think that you can do it, by all means, try your best. Because while you're doing that, I'll try my best to make sure that you don't get a single drop of my red blood on that white canvas. It's nice how you say that I may be lying about how this could be my last match, because there's no denying it, this IS my last match. I don't feel the passion anymore, I don't feel the heart. I want my break, and that's that. Almost five years steady, ALMOST FIVE YEARS STEADY, and what have I got to show for it? Most if it went down here in the Fans Wrestling Alliance, and this is the federation that I've been unhappy in the most. So what does that tell me? It tells me that most of my success came in federations where I wasn't really feeling it in, so therefore, what would the future possibly have in store for me? Worse. I know it's time to THROW OUT those boots and burn the tights that I have been wearing since BWA. It's not fun anymore, and that's the fact of the matter. Other federations and their contracts can simply pull the back towards themsevles, I'm not going there. I'm not going anywhere except home. People won't see me for a very long time. Some might be lucky to even see me at all after our match, Mercy."
Reclusiveness? Sounds like it.
"See how serious I am. Yes. Let's do that."
Fade.
