1/25/2010: After the great start I had last season, I only saw things getting better all year long - until the summer arrived. Little did I know how a small "training accident" would change that. Although after seeing how things played out at "Three-Fisted Tales", I think it's pretty safe to say it was no accident.

I stopped into the Wrestle Factory last summer in between a stretch of events, already dealing with a nagging ankle problem, but I wanted to keep the ring rust off. The class was going over a new technique that Quack had invented while rehabbing his back, so I paired up with someone to try it out. One wrong move later and my ankle was completly blown out. Ended up with almost a full ligament tear. Obviously, I was upset. He knew I was going in hurt, but hey...unfortunately these things can happen in wrestling, right? No one is to blame for an accident in training. Same thing happened to Akuma and to Kingston last year. So, I assured my extremely apologetic partner that it wasn't his fault. These things happen.

Fast forward to the Season Finale. I, along with Jig and Helios, were preoccupied getting Lince checked out after he was knocked out in his match with Player Dos ... and we missed the BDK riot scene. Later on, when we were filled in on exactly what went down, I found one piece of that puzzle even more interesting than the rest. My "careless" training partner from the summer, Pinkie Sanchez, was a part of this all along.

Training accident? I should have seen through it. I tried to return a little too soon last time and paid the price. Am I 100% now? Not quite, but I will not stand idly by during the time CHIKARA needs us all the most. I'm healed enough to fight this Bruderschaft, and the fight is on come "A Touch Of Class". It'll be no "accident" when I put my fist through one of your faces.

I'll be saving one just for you, Pinkie.
