On RAGE, Davidson was offered a chance to fight Marcus Johnson for the Overdrive championship. Before he knew what piece of crap it really was, he was actually looking forward to it until (thank God!) somebody broke the news to him that it was something similar to the Reckless championship. He spent two and a half years juggling trash, he doesn't want to dirty his hands anymore by touching something similar to it. He's cleaning himself out, getting rid of bad habits he got used to in FWA and is now trying to become a real wrestler this time with not a single flaw.
Now, what Davidson could have done was went to management and told them that he doesn't want to wrestle Marcus for the simple fact the that title he was about to fight for and probably even win would have made him completely unhappy... but who wants to be honest. Really? C'mon now! Instead, Davidson thought of something sinister, something cunning and something savage that would probably give him a noticeable hard-on had he been on television.
However, beating the living daylights out of Marcus Johnson made that impossible since the Jerm came across him on the ground, hurt and stuff. Beside him, his opponent. Now the Jerm could have put the two together and came to realization that Davidson had done this but he didn't. A glass of champagne or two might have made him think Davidson was there to help him so he could be in perfect shape tonight for an extreme wrestling match-up, or the Jerm just doesn't understand Davidson's drive to amount to something more than the guy who stood still.
The last time we've seen Davidson, he was doing a bunch of things while intoxicated. Drinkings, throwing snowballs at dogs, arguing with his mom in a bar. Wow, it was all rather embarassing and hey, it's a good thing it's all forgotten. Needless to say, he didn't wake up with a hangover the next morning - good thing, too. He was pretty happy about that. Standing in a bar, a typical sight for him lately, he's playing darts with a bottle of beer in his hand. He throws a dart. Bullseye! Nah, not really, it's not even close. He shakes his head and steps away, letting the next player collect the darts and do his turn. Grabbing another beer, he's now double-fisting. Not so hardcore, it's just beer, brah.
Davidson: "You might have noticed something surprising on RAGE and that was me actually fighting my way out of an opportunity for a championship. After spending two and a half of my life in Fans Wrestling Alliance, which is half of my wrestling career, I really did nothing more than hold a certain championship three times. Now I'd rather keep this smile on my face after what I did on RAGE and not mention what title that was because the memories bring nothing but frustration and annoyance, knowing that I could have been something more instead. When offered a shot to a title of similar style but lesser caliber on RAGE, I was irate. Disappointed, even. What gets me is that these federations actually think I pride being the midcarder I was in Fans Wrestling Alliance. They also think I was happy with where I was in FWA. You've got to be kidding me, right? My time in Ohio and wherever else Redding's Hellhole was nothing but depressing and stressful. Clearly, I wasn't happy there. Clearly, I wasn't sane there. Clearly, something was going wrong there. Do I blame my time as holder of that belt the problem? No, I'm not that bitter to blame every little problem on it. But it all did add up in the end. Everytime I thought about it, everytime I touched it, everytime I won and lost it, everytime I heard or said its name... a wave would break on me and leave me with less of myself that I had beforehand. It wasn't fun."
Taking a sip from the emptying bottle he had first, he finishes it up and sets the bottle down.
Davidson: "Marcus didn't deserve any bit of what he had got from me on RAGE, but I'm not going to apologize for something that W2K's ignorant management made me do. They should have known I was trying to move on and they should have known I had my sights set on something better. Don't come crying to me, begging, if you want some sort of apology. It's not my style, man. I had to do it so I didn't have to wear something so worn and useless. But be happy that it happened, you can hold onto that title longer. Had you gone up against me, I probably would have won and even held onto that title for like... a hundred or so days. Typical reign length of me, though, and most of the time I'm not even serious about them. I would like to believe I had actually saved myself from a miserable time in my life by doing what I did on RAGE, and that's another reason why this smile sticks on my face. I'm not going back in time, I'm not repeating history and I'm not standing still. The sooner you all realize this, the better off we'll all be. But, now how could one wrestler's mood reflect on everybody else? Hahaha, you wouldn't believe, kiddos. As the Overdrive champion, I'd be all yeah, okay, nope. As the World champion? I'd be spitting in your way, faster than a fuckin' flash of light. So get it right."
Thumbs up to the folks watching, he knows he's gonna do well.
Davidson: "Now while I had the week off, it doesn't mean this is going to be no easy ride for me. After what happened last night, I may not even have a single break in a long, long, long time. But I'll be happy with my career regardless, as long as its new and exciting. I just want something fresh and fun rather than stale and boring. W2K should know in time that I'm up for anything that I haven't gone through before. It's not a hard thing to understand, not something difficult to grasp. The Jerm must have high expectations for me and he'll most likely push me in a direction that will satisfy me. But it all depends, I'm not going to nag for it. I'll work and earn it, as long as I just don't fall in that rut that I found myself stuck in for a couple of years. And well, that's all. Here's a Happy New Year comin' at ya!"
He points to the camera and we fade.
