I think you should. I looked back on what the time was for me sometimes harshly. Unfortunately it is also tied in with my mom’s passing.
But if the worst things to happen are things that made people smile it can’t all be bad.

Yeah. A bit of the same for me. This happened in April. We came back in June. By October I had a very public yelling match threatening to quit. By December I was fired.
Lots of contributing factors. But to say this wasn’t a catalyst for a lot of things would be mistaken.

Oh I know. We always had a good working relationship. And in the end I think we trusted each other to tell the best story we could.
Others didn’t trust that and there’s a reason neither one of us are really around much anymore.

The entire idea of 2 champions who’d never been pinned for their titles down to the end of our biggest show was a great idea that was hard fought for by some and ultimately never happened due to COVID.
It is a regret I’ll always have. Cause I think that final moment would have been big.

It really better. This last bit has felt forced and dragged out.

I watched First Take for the first time in a very long time because Gilbert Arenas was on. And he is a good ambassador for the current game.
The era of the ESPN talking head show is dying and the best place to get basketball information is now on the fan to go find.

I was not as high on Josh Singh as others. Unsurprisingly I loved Graham Wellington.
Quinn was high on you but others were not. I’d say you were a coin flip guy for most. Except Quinn. Shockingly I know. He was a fan.

Also a cool moment in time. I was on my way out of PWX feeling down. Quinn brought this to me as an idea to keep me around and have me involved backstage.
You’re right that it inspired UpRyse as a concept. Which I still feel was special. My love of Futures and UpRyse lead me to 880 for sure.

This a tradition to rewatch this yearly with the BHS group. It truly is a highlight of our careers.
It took me an entire day of nothing Jake to get this match. Finally he said yes and we booked it.
It was the match that convinced me I could book and that I wanted to try.

Yeah the match was insane. We all were also kind of miffed because everyone had to now follow it and they were just going ham out there. Lol.
Like…oh man. What we had planned might not follow that now.

Fun story we had no idea who they were. They came with RSP and Quinn booked them that night. We all were confused. They had a banger of a match we all had to follow.
Then they didnt get paid because they didn’t shake hands with the owners son and he refused to pay them.
