When the video begins, the very first thing the viewers see is a close-up of the Uprising World Championship. A very good shot of it, to be exact before it is pulled back to sit across the lap of Kevin Mears as he takes a seat in his Secret Lab gamer chair in his Twitch studio.
Kevin: What’s up, everyone? It’s the Original Ace Kevin Mears. Your new Uprising World Champion. There’s a lot to talk about today, so I hope you brought the popcorn and found a good spot to sit. I’ll start with this. This title is the biggest achievement of my entire career since I started a little under 8 years ago. I’ve never been a World Champion before this, and I gotta tell you I dig it. It’s where I belonged for the longest time, and at Solstice 3, I did exactly what I said I’d do. I did exactly what I told Tolson I would do. “But Kev, what about the low blow after it was over?”
He gave a shrug at that.
Kevin: I’ve been given those before. It won’t happen again, I bought a cup. Easy. I don’t blame her for being mad. She was of the mind that hanging and banging at the gym meant she was going to be a fantastic champion and have loads of successful defenses. She has as many now with this title as Chris Mosh did. Well done. I kept telling her and everyone else it’s not about the muscles. It’s not about what you can bench. It’s what’s in your head, and I proved I was smarter than her when I helped prepare Serenity to defeat her last year, and I went into Solstice 3 knowing that I could do it. I had no doubt in my mind. And I proved that after what was easily one of the toughest matches I’ve had. I’ll give her that. What happened after was just proof I’ve been living rent free in her head for a while now, and shoutout to the Aces for having my back. That’s what we do! Now about the Aces..
He takes a moment, seemingly as though he’s measuring what he wants to say.
Kevin: I’m proud of all of them. Summer and Serenity had a fantastic match and showed everyone why I wanted them in the group. Talia was great in her match, and I feel confident she’ll get her hands on what eluded her in Albuquerque. It’s fucking Amy Santino, after all. Good job, ladies. As for all the stuff with Serenity? Look, I don’t discuss my personal life in public. That’s fucking stupid and just gives people shit to talk. But the short form of the story is she lied to me. She made me a promise behind closed doors, broke that promise. I’m old school about that. Lie to me once, and it’s a fucking long road to get me to believe you again. Do it twice, and that’s it. End of. What else did I want to cover? Oh yeah…. Good ol’ XWF.
This already brings a grin to his face.
Kevin: At Relentless this coming Monday, I gotta face Sean Parker finally. And I have to tell you he has to be one of the stupidest people I’ve ever encountered and I used to have to face backyard wrestlers. He’s mad at me because he lost the tournament to Penelope. He thinks I have a telepathic link with the production truck and told them to hit my music when I came out during the match to see it in person. I’d have been out there sooner, but I had a phone call. I didn’t tell anyone to play my music. I’ve never interfered in any of his matches, and if he’s paranoid enough to think I was about to do it then, he really is that dumb. Let’s run down the list of issues he has. One, he’s bipolar. No question. He started out wanting to face me the night he appeared on Madness, then went on Twitter asking me why he should. I just proved to you that he’s paranoid. I also said he was entitled because he felt like he belonged in that tournament the moment he arrived in XWF despite having never had the first match there. He proved me right again the other night when he told Thad he wanted a shot at the Uprising World Title. And he doesn’t even work for Uprising….but he wants a title shot at my title despite that. Say it with me, kids. EN-TIT-LED. Now I have to face him at Relentless on Monday. That’s fine. Like I said, it’s about what’s up here…
He taps his forehead.
Kevin: I’m playing 3 dimensional chess and he’s playing Yahtzee. Sean, I’m sure you’re all full of piss and vinegar and looking forward to this match. I’m not. I’ll tell you why. What is pinning Sean Parker gonna do for my career? Jack and shit. It feels like now I’m having to beat up a mental midget as it is, your best shot of winning is hoping a severe guilt trip overcomes me from having to beat someone of such limited intelligence and clear deficiencies. I don’t see that happening. We’re on different levels. See, I win big matches when they’re put in front of me…as in with this title you wanted Thad to book you to challenge for…from another promotion where he has no power. You? You choke. Penelope beat you, and she’s moved on. Luckily for you, Thad is a huge fan. You know how I know? I defeated the guy who is getting a US title shot, and I’m not in the match to face the champion. I’m stuck in a #1 contender match with you. So no matter what happens, I’m sure you’ll still have that title shot after our contender match regardless. The boss loves you, he’s also playing you for a fool but that’s a story for another time. And if Mosh wins the US title? Even you can defeat him.
He shook his head as he changed the subject again.
Kevin: Last thing I want to mention is on Monday, October 16th, my birthday, I’m putting together a little show for those who want to be involved in it, which is a growing list because I know quite a few. I’ve already booked the location here in New Jersey. I’m putting together the card, good little payday for those taking part. And I’m going to offer both Serenity and Amber the chance to settle their issues in the main event of that show. If you both accept, that is. I’ll referee it. I’ll be putting together a full card as we get closer to time. No, I’m not getting into the promoter business or starting a company. This is just a one night only deal to help commemorate my birthday this year as I turn 30. Calling it Kev’s Birthday Bash at the moment. So if you’re watching this and you haven’t already let me know you want in on the show, let me know and we’ll see what we can work out. I’m looking forward to it already. Now was there anything else?
He snaps his fingers as he remembers.
Kevin: I’m about to head out to Houston, time to start getting my LFL team ready for the start of the new season. If you didn’t know, my buddy Mac made me head coach of the Houston Outlaws. Probably gonna need to see about long term accommodations while I’m there too, so I’ll look for a place to stay. I’m looking forward to working with this team and helping them be the best lingerie football players you will find. Won’t be for lack of effort, trust me. Now with all that said, I need to finish packing for my flight. See you at Relentless on Monday.
He flashed a peace sign to the camera before the video cut out.
