Josh Konnely sits alone inside a sky box at the Arena VFG in Guadalajara, Mexico. He is dressed in a long sleeve white Under Armour HeatGear compression shirt and white jeans, sitting on a black leather couch. In his hands he holds a book with a white cover. ”Nirvana is also characterized by transcendental knowledge or bodhi a concept translated most commonly into English as 'enlightenment'. This knowledge is considered in terms of being fully awake to the true nature of reality. One who possesses or abides in bodhi is called a buddha or arahant. But you, you already knew that. Didn't you, NirvDawna? Which, by the way, is quite possibly the dumbest tag team name in history. Then again, given its members, what else would I expect other than stupidity? Please don't misunderstand, Nirvana and Dawn. I mean that in the nicest possible way. What each of you has done in Strike Towers, from cannibalism to teddy bears and back again, it could only be called absurd and absurd to the extreme. The Axis of Ultra Violence is all about exploiting and exaggerating the absurdity of its members, is it not? Even with your willingness to break the fourth wall and openly display your work as part of a televised male-oriented soap opera, rather than attempting to pass it off as real life. You lot have chosen to make yourselves a joke, something for people to laugh at. Of course, Kyle Murphy's recent win-loss record has had a similar effect, and I don't think he's doing it intentionally. So at least the two of you have that over my surely reluctant tag team partner for tonight. As the two of you eluded to, Kyle and I had a bit of a falling out at the end of Revelation. But it was necessary for each of us to close that chapter in our careers. That book had reached its end, we had run it as far as we could. With stables once again gone by the wayside, there was no longer any reason for our existence as such. However, the end of our stable caused Strike Towers to strip us of the Tag Team Championships. I'm not sure how Kyle feels about it, but that means we no longer have titles that we never lost and therefore are still the rightful owners of. On the other hand, my unification with Kyle Murphy was always tentative and shaky from the start. I loathe men and women who live for riches and personal glory, who love nobody as much as or more than they love themselves. And you may notice during that description that it fits Kyle Murphy to a tee. Kyle Murphy represents everything I despise. Or perhaps I just envy who he is and the things he has done? Anyway, this is not meant to be a rant against Kyle Murphy. It's meant to be a rant against Nirvana. That is why all the Strike Towers cameras are here, after all. See, who needs a fourth wall? Nirvana, let us check in with reality for a moment, shall we? The truth is that you have brainwashed and manipulated Dawn and the rest of the Axis to do your Holocaust-style bidding. Made them feel like they are acting out according to their own free will when in fact it is your own will they are acting on. You have Dawn and her henchpeople convinced that their old friend Sorik existed only in their minds, don't you? Dawn now believes that Sorik and his teddy are a disease, and that you are the cure. And if she can just cut herself free of that former bondage then she can achieve that enlightenment of Nirvana. Isn't that right, Nirvana? Here is the thing. The bondage of their shared delusion- Dawn's and HenchWoman's- it is a poison that you fed them yourself, isn't it? You are like a spider king, weaving webs and tying imaginary webs into people's minds so that you can tug on those strings like some dark and demented puppet master. That is what you have done, isn't it? Don't you think it is time you come clean with her and with yourself? That makes me wonder what is the web which allows you to control Ataxia and Dirk? What dark secret laying in their closet have you dug up and used as a string to make them dance for you? Perhaps in due time that mystery will be solved, but for now it is not important. Does it scare you, Nirvana? Does it frighten you that I see your charade for what it is? All you are now and all you have ever been is a manipulator, a toxin, and a poison. Your name refers to a state of enlightenment and freedom from bondage, to breaking the cycle of rebirth which is the goal of Indian religions. And yet you continuously lure people into bondage with your false enlightenment, deceiving them into doing whatever you want. You once had Lucretia, Jared, and Havoc caught in your web. Now it is Dawn, Dirk, and Ataxia. Can you accomplish anything on your own? Would you have a career if it weren't for the marionettes dancing to your little symphony of destruction? You are a Hall of Famer, are you not? Would you have that if it weren't for the poison you have placed in people's minds? The poor pitiful fools you have exploited over the years have lifted you up on some imaginary throne or altar, elevating you to godlike status in Strike Towers when it is they who fought and died to elevate you to such glory. These puppets have falsely believed in you. They have worshiped you on false pretenses and done your dirty work for you. Now that these facts have been brought to light, perhaps at least a few of your victims will truly be set free from the bondage which you yourself have inflicted upon them.” Fade to WHITE.
