Redemption… revenge… retribution… a portion of this debt owed to me by Wrestleworld and the wrestling industry as a whole was paid at Badlands.
After everything I had to endure with the insolent Chad Kennedy who believed he was the second coming of a wrestling god and the same talented individual his father was to become a world champion of this sport, I have taken the spoiled bastard son back to his home built from his father’s money and proved to the entire world why I am one of the greatest talents to grace this sport. I was made to not use the most devastating weapons in my wrestling arsenal, forced to endure whatever weapons Chad wanted to throw my way in the ring with no retaliation, and had to defeat him three times in the middle in the ring in front of a worldwide audience! What did I do? JUST THAT! I’ve been dealt time and time again a raw hand with Wrestleworld and this is the first time I have been able to attain a victory for myself, but it won’t stop here. From the way the wrestling industry has been treating me ever since I was asked to come out of retirement to be able to establish brand new promotions to bring more alternatives to the sport, I haven’t been rewarded or shown the proper respect by ANYONE for doing so when I could have just lounged at my home to watch from afar. I could have raked in the royalties and merchandise sales from various promotions to be comfortable for the rest of my life, but I wanted to show the world I am a legendary icon in this business and bring these promotions into the spotlight to where they can excel to greatness. However, what have I been returned with after rescinding my retirement where my last match would have been at one of the biggest shows of the year for another promotion carrying the world championship to defend at this event to do this for you? I was made to be humiliated by a blonde bitch who I fail to even remember her name for how much she meant to the industry. I had what drove me to signing your contract taken away from me when Arata Asakura not only snatched the Shogun Championship away from Brian Daniels, but simply stood by and watched as he was mauled to be forced to leave this company. Good thing for him to be able to have the easy escape out of this wasteland to where I have to continue to wallow in the Wrestleworld filth. I get the pleasure of having my face smeared in the mud and disrespected as I was left to be defeated by Arata Asakura on my quest to reclaim what should have been mine to begin with and what did Wrestleworld do after that? They left me to the sidelines to where Chad Kennedy could be afforded every single opportunity to slander my name underneath the sun. Wrestleworld allowed this brat to torture me and allow these stipulation for actions he manipulated into his favor and you know what, this was the last straw. Wrestleworld is nothing more than a shell of what it was supposed to be now and when my contract expires to where I don’t have to waste my time fighting for something Wrestleworld obviously doesn’t want me to hold in my hands, they’ll regret every single way they crossed me. I would have expected a thank you for signing a contract with this place, some gratitude for leaving behind a great retirement to be able to drag this place where the owners wanted it, but all I have been met with since day one is disrespect from Wrestleworld and its fans. With that, what’s next for Jacob Senn? What lies ahead for him and what will he use his talents for next? As announced by Wrestleworld, I have been asked to enter into the King of the World tournament and this, this is another step towards repaying me the debt you owe and providing the gratitude a man of my legacy deserves to be treated with.
All of this brings me to the person I have been placed against in the first round of this tournament, Raoul. I’m not going to sit here and say that I have followed the career of Raoul to where I can display some sort of respect or awe in his ability because the truth of the matter is, he has never been a blip on my radar. I congratulate him on his victory at Badlands, I appreciate the kind words that were said from him directed to me, but I’m going to do him the honor in not lying to his face to tell some story of two warriors duking it out for the right to move forward in this tournament. Raoul, I don’t know you and this might be what makes this interesting because there is a potential for you to throw something at me I’ve never seen before, and that would be a welcome change from the repetitious figures who have plagued Wrestleworld with their unoriginality. With that said, do not think for a moment I’m going to underestimate you and not watch every step you take within that battleground we will be set to enter in for Chapter 10. I’m not intending to be knocked out of this King of the World tournament in the first round and it certainly won’t be from someone who doesn’t even provide a faint memory of what they’re able to provide inside of the ring. Raoul, we both might represent a type of star who doesn’t rely on sheer brute strength and displays a wrestling technique they couldn’t touch, but we’re on different planes of existence when it comes to our talents. I’m a multiple-time world champion, a man who has traveled around the entire world to topple the greatest of foes inside a wrestling ring, a Hall of Fame caliber talent, and a man who is one of the most legendary figures in this industry. With all of this said, there’s only one word to describe me when compared to someone of the history and abilities Raoul possesses: unrivaled. When we enter inside of the ring on Chapter 10, I will make sure Wrestleworld remembers the man Jacob Senn was before they attempted to humiliate him. The world will have the memory of one of the most ruthless and unforgiving forces willing to go through anything they can provide to make sure fear has been struck into their hearts when The Punisher knocks. Raoul, you will be the sacrificial lamb in this King of the World tournament to bring the rebirth of The Punisher. So, don’t attempt to reach out for the crown everyone attempts to covet…
For The Punished will not reap the rewards. Only The Punisher.
