To the XWF:

First off, I probably have one or two more matches I can do in the coming month(s) which will be my last for quite a while. I've had some health issues that came up in the last few months, one being an infection in my right arm and my elbow is still swollen. I've done everything to do and it still has yet to be normal, and it' s a bitch to type. With the health issues, my daughter, and adding some extra work I am going to need time away.

When I first arrived here, I struggled with my writing but pushed myself to be better. While I don't consider myself the best writer, I think I came a long way and became a household name.

I've done quite a bit and while a lot of people hate(d) the character Eli... some of you were quick to let me know I was entertaining.

I tried to keep all my characters entertaining: Eli James, Elisha, Waldo, Brock Lesnar, Genesis, Anonymous, and Jeff Fairfield. I hope one of them did something for you in the entertainment area of life.

I hope to one day return, but I'm not sure when that will be... at least not as a competitor.

I will be around on skype and checking the boards here and there...

To everyone to who read my stuff (whether you liked it, told me how good it was, or was simply entertained by it) I want to say thank you. It helped me become a better story teller and 'trash talker'.

Duke always said I whored myself out looking for compliments, and I did. I'm a competitive person by nature, but also like to hear if what I'm doing is good.. if it isn't I usually just change or try harder. I never turned down a match/opponent and had some really tough challenges.

Shane, thanks for the input and allowing me to express my creativity... and helping me with angles. The whole 'killing Shane and Administrator' gig was fun.

I could easily go down the list and thank individuals, but I'm on skype and you know who you are.

So, why not whore myself out one more time? You can leave your words to me here and tell me anything... who knows.. I may need to lift my spirits up one day and go back to this in a few weeks.

I enjoyed my time here.... just remember.. I will return.
