6/12/09: PWF Showdown IX

Interview:
Samoa Joe starts from the beginning

("Mama Said Knock You Out" by LL Cool J played as Samoa Joe came to the ring.)

Samoa Joe: I dominated the PWF. I won the first ever Champions Cup. I ended
Chris Hero's year long reign as PWF World Heavyweight Champion. Then I was
introduced to Kenta Kobashi. I haven't been able to defeat Kobashi and at PWF
Sudden Impact, I lost my PWF World Heavyweight Championship to Kobashi. In a
competitive field, when you can't complete a goal you have for yourself, you
begin to second guess your ability. I never thought this would be me, but I
have come to a place in this ring where I feel it's necessary to start from the
beginning. I will work my way back up to the main event starting from the other
end of the spectrum. If I ever do regain my dominance, I will once again be PWF
World Heavyweight Champion and complete a goal I have set for myself, in
defeating Kenta Kobashi.

(Joe dropped the microphone and left the ring, a beaten man.)
