And after bleeding, crying and suffering, giving his all for the company and the fans, the cowards in the back screwed him, and betrayed him. Because they have no balls and are backstabbers. They believed all the lies and read the reports, but he did nothing wrong. They suspended him and stopped paying him and took his title.
