I've been knocked out of the TiT after a grueling promo period with Troy Douglas. Adam has been a man possessed lately in the TiT, winning the EPW IC Title, and a date for the Cyber Title in A1E. I know he's in PRIME and at least one other fed. Having so much on his plate hasn't slowed him down at all.
Two things Adam does really well: one, he pretty much never makes mistakes. Trying to pick apart his promos is like playing Hasbro's Operation with a hockey stick. And the second thing he does really well is either downplay or ignore completely any mistakes he does make. That's two ingredients for success.
If I'm going to go out in the TiT (which I'm making a bad habit of :) ) then at least I've gone out guns blazing. I'm glad real life has afforded me the opportunity to put in good showings the last two years. I'm looking forward to meeting Ravager again for the Challenge Championship.
The "Era" part of this promo is about the retirement of Dan Ryan. My one match with Dave taught me more about the hobby than all the other promo periods put together, and that's no knock on my other opponents. I truly hope this isn't the end of promos from Dave Brunk. If it is though, no one's earned it more.

A1E's Vengeance 2008 (Edited)
First off, I'm honored to be a part of the show and have to thank Jarrett for allowing my small part in the A1E vs EPW war. I hope this isn't the last of it. I know the EPW/NEW joint-work was exceptional and I'd love to see something like that from these two feds this summer.
I was just as in the dark as everyone else after reading the show. I thought there was going to be an A1E/EPW infusion for a month or two. With EPW being recessed at the moment I thought this was coming. Perhaps I'm just too naive to realize this isn't possible. Not to mention the drastic change that would be asked of the entire A1E roster to basically join EPW for a while.
I read the whole show and was very impressed. I think the matchwriting by A1E writers is particularly excellent. Like many said on the boards, the length of the main event Wargames match was perfect.
You have to read Dan Ryan's 'Descent' to really appreciate part Two. i wish I would've read it first. I can't think of a better way that anyone has forcedly retired in anything. It was artistic, original, creative and brilliant.
Kudos to all involved, including all the A1E members who had complimented the angle and guys like Rocko Daymon, Chronic Collizion and Sean Stevens who showed those in A1E what EPW can do.
