“Culmination of Frustration”
Date: March 25, 2018
The cameras fade in on Jazmyn Rain who is sitting in her Cincinnati, Ohio hotel room. At this point in time, the sling that she had worn for a week after the assault by Jack Tillman is still on her left arm. Having been through quite a lot lately in and out of the ring, the number one contender to the NGW Five Lakes Championship is far from being her typical bubbly self. She does the best that she can to keep her eyes in front of her and not on the sling that is on her arm knowing that it’s going to cause her a bit of unrest. Maintaining her composure to the best of her ability, Jazmyn sighs before expressing her thoughts in the days leading up to Battle for London.
Jazmyn Rain: I HATE that I am in this condition, you have no idea. There are questions as to whether I am going to be cleared in time for Battle for London and rightfully so, but the fact that this had to happen to me THIS close to Battle for London REALLY just… it ANGERS ME! For a few days, I kept asking myself “why?”. Is it all a self-fulfilling prophecy at this point? Am I really not meant to be the Five Lakes Champion at all? I hate to ponder questions like that so out in the open, but considering what I have been through in the last few months, hell, since I first came to New Generation Wrestling, those are fair questions to cross my mind. It seems like every time I get anywhere CLOSE to the Five Lakes Championship or every time I have a chance to make a statement involving the division in and of itself, most of the time, something goes wrong and that goes all the way back to my NGW debut last July against Joshua Goldstein in my hometown of Charlotte. He was a top contender to the Five Lakes Championship at the time and there was my opportunity to make things happen in a big way but instead… well… you know what happened. My hometown debut went wrong, more or less. But it’s just one match, so I shrugged it off and I pushed forward. Then came a match against Caroline… who was my initial target being the Five Lakes Champion when I came in and I beat her, which was GREAT. But… she had already lost the title to Joshua by then. It doesn’t take away from my victory, but damn, if she had that title at that point, that would have made things even sweeter. So, I keep going. I keep pushing. The Guardians becomes a thing, we do our battle against the Destroyers.
We have the C2 Con in San Francisco all the way back in October and wouldn’t you know it? I get my opportunity! I was going to take on Trixie in a number one contender’s match with the winner going on to face Goldstein for the championship later in the night and then…. Then…
Jazmyn pauses, carrying some anger on her shoulders as her eyes narrow to reflect upon that anger that just infiltrated her soul. She clenches her right fist out of camera’s view but her anger is evident in her face and the fact that she’s even shaking some as she tries to keep her anger in check.
Jazmyn Rain: That’s when YOU came in, Jack Tillman! I’m sure you remember that because of what ended up happening for you on that night. Yes Jack, this thing between us has been going on since OCTOBER! The moment that you decided to blindside me and take me out of that match, then take the spot for yourself and essentially steal the Five Lakes Championship in the long run… THAT was when you started this whole thing. I have a question to ask you though, about that moment. Why me? And no, I am not asking “why me?” in the pity sense, I’m asking you why you attacked me and not Trixie because with all due respect to her, you could have easily done the same thing to her and faced ME instead. Yet, that’s not the way things went down, is it? Don’t sit there and tell me that I was at the wrong place at the wrong time because that’s an excuse that’s a load of bull every time it’s used and even someone as callous and pathetic as you knows that. Don’t sit there and tell me that you had something personal going on with Trixie because by that time, you and her had already settled things and your main enemy was Joshua after he retained that championship against you on two occasions. Why did you go after me and not Trixie? I think I know why!
I think it’s because deep down… even though you’ll never admit it, you knew that I was going to be the tougher challenge that night, didn’t you? I mean, you and Trixie already had history, particularly involving the then-named Redemption Genesis Championship so you know what she was all about in that ring in the grand scheme of things. But me? At that point, you didn’t know me or what I was capable of at all and I think that may have scared you some. So, it’s the vintage situation where you choose between the devil you already know, and the “devil” you didn’t know so you chose to assault ME instead of Trixie so you could face a wrestler you were already familiar with. You KNEW that Trixie would be easier than me as an opponent for that night. I’m not saying it was anything personal against me, at least not at that point, but it wouldn’t shock me if it was. So you pulled off a successful heist of that Five Lakes Championship but there was just ONE problem with your plan: you didn’t take me out of NGW that night. And so, I’d get another go with Trixie at Resurgence fighting the match that SHOULD have been fought at the C2 Con and I won to become the number one contender to the Five Lakes Championship!
You’ve skirted me ever since!
You don’t respect me as a wrestler at ALL! WHY would you even WANT to face me? You never acknowledged me PERIOD until Homecoming! You acted like what? I was another one-shot contender? What happened the ONE TIME we have had any sort of encounter WITHOUT any shenanigans? Remember that one time, Jack? Warfare! What happened then? Oh right, weren’t you the first one eliminated? You were! And who eliminated you? It was ME, wasn’t it? Funny, that with everything that has happened between us, you leave that part out! You’re so self-deluded it’s pathetic! So we have our meeting at Homecoming and once again… MORE shenanigans from you! I get it Jack, you want me to go away but did you honestly think that after you won at Homecoming, I was going to? I would have been that one-shot contender you initially saw me as, had you actually won that match with no shenanigans whatsoever, but of course, you HAD to have help, you HAD to pull a fast one and as a result… here we are! But you STILL wanted me to be out of your way… so… you did THIS to me!!!!
Jazmyn pauses, finally looking back at her arm and she has an angry glare on her face with her frustration beginning to bubble up inside of her.
Jazmyn Rain: You are a COWARD, Jack Tillman! For FIVE AND A HALF MONTHS…. FIVE AND A HALF MONTHS… you have pulled some bullshit out of your ass to try to hurt me! You have done everything you can think of to try and keep me away from the Five Lakes Championship and it’s no surprise at all that you waited for the perfect moment… JUST BEFORE Battle for London, to do THIS to me! You were hoping that by doing this to me, our title match would get pushed back a month and then you’d get me JUST when I get cleared so you can defeat me and finally brush me aside! Yet, you haven’t learned that I am NOT the kind of person that just fades away into the night and Jack, I know that somewhere in there, it eats you up inside that I WON’T GO AWAY! What you did to me became the culmination of my frustration with you and your fucking BULLSHIT COWARDICE that you have pulled on me for the last five to six months. I’m TIRED OF IT! I’m NOT going to play the victim because I know that it has NEVER gotten me far before and it won’t get me anywhere now either. You’re LUCKY that I haven’t been cleared yet but I haven’t given up hope yet! Things may be bleak, and I may not be cleared yet, but I haven’t given up!
I WON’T GIVE UP!
I didn’t give up when I was trying to break back into the business for two years after I hit rock bottom in my personal life!
I didn’t give up when I went on my 20 month journey to regain the Global Championship that was robbed from me in GCW!
I didn’t give up when I was at my weakest point physically a year and a half ago and actually DIED for three minutes!
I didn’t give up even when I was DEAD, Jack, so what makes you think that I am going to give up now?
What makes you think that I am going to tap out this weekend? Because you have a health advantage over me? Because you have a virtual bullseye to target the entire match? NO! That’s not how this is going to go down. I know exactly the sort of situation that I find myself in! I am well aware that my back is against the wall. I know that less likely than not, I am going to get cleared. It’s already dawned on me that even if I DO get cleared, because of your cowardice, I am going to have an uphill battle to climb to make you tap out and win the Five Lakes Championship and by the grace of god, that’s exactly what I am going to do! You’re one of the most technically sound wrestlers in the business and will be for some time, there’s no denying that.
But I am NOT giving up hope! You’re going to have to sever this arm for me to give up hope, Jack...literally sever it!
I get it! It’s crazy that with the odds against me so much, I am defiant to the death of my belief to even wrestle this match AT ALL let alone win it, but for five and a half months, you have done nothing but push me around and drive me to the point of frustration! You have yet to pay for what you did to me in Dublin, for Homecoming and gosh even the C2 Con! You’re due to pay the piper bitch, and this weekend, come hell or high water, I am going to pull not an “Easter miracle”, but an Easter EPIC when I DO make you pay for all that you’ve done to me AND for the bad things you’ve done with that championship from before the moment you won it!
At Battle for London, Jack, you are facing karma personified because you WILL pay for what you’ve done!
I will FINALLY be the Five Lakes Champion!
You may have damaged the angel’s wing… but you can NEVER damage the angel’s spirit!
Jazmyn takes a deep breath as she stands up and walks toward the camera, shutting off and doing everything she can to stay upbeat, positive and determined going into Battle for London against Jack Tillman: a match she very well expects to fight… one way or another!
