CREDIT LIMIT EXCEEDED
VIA: Posted to Lava's Wordpress blog.
William Levon wants to talk about giving credit where credit is due,
And he wants to talk about learning from past mistakes.
But it's interesting because he's selling what I said short,
And failing to learn from the mistakes made by Weston Alexander a week ago.
Weston tried to convince the world that I lack focus.
He based the few words he had towards our match on that subject.
Now William Levon has arrived and he wants fans to believe the same thing.
Saying that my lack of focus will make all the difference, to his benefit.
Clearly, neither has a clue what they're talking about,
Because my single-minded ability to focus on my opponent,
May be among the most proficient in all of MetroPro.
So much so in fact that the biggest weakness in my game,
Is my inability to notice outside factors besides my opponent.
When it comes to focusing on my opponents though, I'm the best in MetroPro.
So, much as I said to Weston Alexander a week ago,
If you're planning to bring a friend to our match, William,
Or if you're planning on hitting me with a hammer or a crowbar,
Then that flaw in my game might come into play.
But since I know that you won't,
The element that you come to our match thinking is your biggest strength,
Just in the same way that Weston Alexander did a week earlier,
Means absolutely nothing,
And your reliance on it becomes just another hole in your plan.
Hell, just how laser focused I am should be even more clear,
After the way I won my match one week ago.
Yes, I won by count-out.
A fact made possible exactly because of my sharp focus on the task at hand.
I knew exactly where and when I was every moment of that match.
And I made the Smartest Man In Metro forget where he was.
I made Weston Alexander make a mistake.
Let that sink in for a second.
I went exactly like I said that it would.
For all his smarts, for all his intelligence, for all his technique,
I hit Braniac so hard that he forgot where he was, what he was doing,
And that was the direct key to my victory.
I took Weston Alexander's greatest strength, his in-ring awareness,
And I took it away from him.
Let THAT sink in for a second.
So keep focusing on the deficit that MetroPro calls my 'Focus Score'.
Keep making that same mistake Weston made, and think that it's a flaw you can seize upon.
Because there is a type of opponent who will be able to do just that,
Who will be able to take that flaw in my game and utilize it.
But you and I both know, William, that you're not that athlete.
It's just not who you are.
As for credit, Hell, I gave and continue to give it to you.
Because while it's true that none of your measured stats are 'World Class',
While it's true that your exceptional speed, agility & technique fall just short of truly elite,
There is one area in which you are without peer, and that's your luck.
Your ability to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
THAT is dangerous, and that is the element that I have to most prepare for.
Your luck is what keeps you from being what your measured stats would suggest that you are:
A quick, agile, intelligent but ultimately middle-of-the-road, well-rounded wrestler.
I made a world-class intellect make a mistake, and I did it without my own elite submission game.
so I know exactly how to beat lucky.
The thing that you think is your key to victory, William, it is an illusion.
And you've convinced yourself that the way I won my match last week,
Taking Alexander's greatest strength and making him lose in direct contrast to it,
As a sign of some sort of weakness or a flaw in my strategy.
Both of these facts indicate that you don't actually understand the situation.
Neither did Weston Alexander.
Here's how it's going down, William.
You're going to come out like a pinball.
I know it and I'm prepared for it.
I'm going to keep my cool.
Sooner or later though, you'll have to come into my range,
And when you do I'm going to hit you so hard that you forget where you are,
Just like I did to Weston Alexander.
Then, shortly after that, I'll put my arm around your neck.
Maybe on the mat. Maybe standing up.
Doesn't matter.
Then, you'll go to sleep.
Afterwards, I'll shake you hand and give you whatever credit you're due,
I promise.
And in that moment, you'll give me mine.
