The Arena is nearly empty save for the cleaning crew who are busy sweeping out the seating area and wiping down the seats themselves with disinfectant. The crew had not begun tearing down the ring yet because Night Rider had come out and was standing in the middle of it. He looked around at the emptiness and shrugged his shoulders. He was beginning to doubt himself and his talent. As big as he was and with his quickness he should be a dominant force here in ACW yet he just couldn't seem to get it together. He didn't mind losing, It was all a part of the sport, Still it didn't help the emptiness he felt inside. He wondered if he had made the right choice by coming here, Wondered if he was really good enough to hang with the competition here. Night Rider jumped up onto the top turnbuckle and sat there looking at the mat, Thinking about the great superstars who had given everything they had for this sport. The likes of Cole Blaze, Snake, Devon Mayhem, And even Kyle Travis. The blood, Sweat, Time, and Tears they poured out week after week. Even all of the other wrestlers who came out here and gave it their all. Surely they also had their moments of doubt. Night Rider looked down, Seeing a blood stain still left over from the evenings mayhem. Was it fair for him to relish in a moment of self pity when others continue going on no matter what damage they incurred in their matches and no matter how many they lost? He made up his mind, He wasn't going to let this do him in. He owed it not only to himself but to all of the others he had thought of. He placed a hand on each rope on his side and did a backflip off of the top rope and landed squarely on his feet on the concrete floor. He would find a way to not only go on but to step up his game and do what he came here to do. He headed back to the locker room and was about to head out when he saw Jeff Purse in his street clothes and carrying his gear bag. Night Rider walked over to him and extended his hand.
Night Rider: Congrats man, Great match. I just wanted to tell you that I have a lot of respect for you, You went out and did just what you said you would. If your ever in a fix and need a tag partner or just someone to watch your back let me know. I'll be there for you. No, No need to say anything now. You go on ahead like you were. I'm going to hit the shower and get ready to head out of here myself. I have a lot of thinking and a lot of work to get done before my next match. See ya around Jeff.
Night Rider walks away from a stunned Jeff Purse and goes into the shower stall, Turning on the water as hot as he can get it and stands under it, Allowing it to wash away all of his doubts and the soreness that he felt. What would the future hold for him in the ACW? Would he ever be a top contender like he wanted or would he be doomed to a life of mid and lower card status? Only time would tell.....
