A YouTube video starts off with a fairly muscular Man with short blonde hear, wearing a Metallica t shirt, and sitting in a chair. The man takes a deep breath, and looks into the camera before speaking.
Man: "Hey guys. Some of you might recognize me without my black hair and face paint, but I know a lot of people have never seen me like this before so I would like to re introduce myself. My name is Ryan Robinson, but most of you better know me as "The Reaper."
Ryan Robinson: "Now the reason I don't have black hair, and I'm not dressed like The Reaper is because this isn't the time for "The Reaper" to speak. I need to get some things off my chest, and I need to do this as Ryan Robinson."
Ryan Robinson: "First off. I want to answer a couple questions people have been asking me these last few days. Yes. I seen the Liam Reilly interview. Yes. Liam Reilly and I are still friends. No. I don't care rather people like it or not, and no. I'm not mad about the things he said. Why? We may get to that, but I would like to talk more about Liam as a friend."
Ryan Robinson: "I grew up as a Kid with Autism who was in Special Ed. I was never great at making friends. Not even in this business that I love so much. I only made a hand full of friends in the indies, and a little less friends in WKF. Liam Reilly was one of those friends. I met him backstage at a WKF show, and we quickly became friends. We became even better friends in a promotion called Libertarian Wrestling. We even had plans to start a group. It was going to be Syn, The 24 Hour Party People and myself. I don't believe we ever even came up with a name for the stable, and it obviously never became a thing. Not sure why. It just didn't."
Ryan Robinson: "I don't know if Liam ever understood Syn and I the way we understand one another. We are two freaks who like to wear face paint and inflict pain on people. Liam is a lot more on the normal side than that, but I know for a fact that he accepted us regardless. Liam and I remained close friends until a terrible incident took place which drove Damon Warrens out of PCW, and Liam of course left with him."
Ryan Robinson: "Now this is where I explain why I'm not mad at Liam for the things he said in the recent interview. I can't be mad at him because most of it is my fault. Liam. You were a good friend to Damon, but I was NOT a good friend to you. I chose PCW over our friendship. I chose power over our friendship. I chose Team Lethality over our friendship, and while I appreciate the things Danielle Lopez and James Baker has done for me. I honestly regret the decisions I made. I know you and I are still friends, but our friendship has been nowhere near as strong as it once was. You are in no way responsible for any of this. I could have prevented it all just by making the right choices, but I didn't. I often wonder how things would have turned out if I would have left with you and Damon Warrens. Perhaps Syn would have joined us too? We will never know. Just for the simple fact that I chose a different path, and I am now stuck right where I am."
Ryan Robinson: "Liam. You say this isn't personal, but it should be. You say your issues are with PCW. The problem is that PCW is the same promotion that stole MY Platinum championship from me, allowed me to get fired, and were obviously in no hurry to bring me back. The Board Of Directors could have re instated me the very next week if they wanted to. So I honestly don't have much interest in defending the company but you deserve your revenge on the company, and you also deserve to get revenge on ME for being a terrible friend to YOU!
A twisted smirk crosses Ryan's face.
Ryan Robinson: "Of course I'm not just going to lay down, and let you have it though. For two reasons. One. I know you won't accept that anyway, and two. You're not just stepping in the ring with Ryan Robinson. You're stepping in the ring with Ryan "The REAPER" Robinson, and laying down for someone just isn't in his nature. Hell. That side of me was angry when I forced him to lay down for Syn. Of course Syn isn't too proud of that moment himself."
Ryan Robinson: "But I am going to address a few things you said. I'm not going to explain how Team Lethality is dead, and I have my own little cult of followers now because I know you couldn't care less, and I don't want to waste your time. As for the way you compared your skills to mine. I don't have the speed you have? I disagree. I don't have the power you have? Debatable. I don't have the technical wrestling skills you have? I will give you that one for sure, I'm a straight up brawler. I can't chain wrestle to save my life. You basically said I'm not as tough as you? I have to disagree with that one, but I promise you that NO ONE will get involved in our match. No one from a former stable full of people a freak like me probably didn't fit in with to begin with, and none of my followers from The Prophecy will interfere either. If you manage to beat me to the point I will never be able to get out of bed ever again, then dammit, Liam. I deserve it! But if I manage to defeat you, I hope things between us can go back to the way they used to be. The way they SHOULD be! Even though I understand that may be a unrealistic out come."
Ryan Robinson: "How about we raise the stakes even higher though? How about if I win. I get to return to CCP full time? But if you win. Well. Judging by your plans. I don't think it will matter much by the time you are finished with me, but I assure you. That will NOT be the out come. I will either drop you on your head with a Tombstone Piledriver, and pin you or force you to tap out to The Reaper Death Lock. I will have my hand raised in victory regardless. As my alter ego would say. Fear The Reaper!"
Ryan reaches out to the camera, and the screen goes black.
