Down at the gym. Tokyo, Japan. Thursday 27th April.
Konrad and Chris Richards have only just arrived to Japan a few hours ago after Konrad having a match at Supreme Championship Wrestling Breakdown show last night, but he turns his attention on the upcoming match as he was less than satisfied with the match he got placed in, especially it wasn't anywhere close to what he really wanted. He'll still wrestle regardless because deep down inside, he didn't want to let the fans down, but while Chris overlooks Konrad with his progress on doing stamina work, he's seeing the same look Konrad had on the plane and Chris sighed as he says this.
Chris Richards: "I know you don't like to be placed in a KO cage match, but it will benefit your career. I always wan.........."
Konrad stops running on the treadmill to look at Chris with a unsatisfied look to address the situation.
Konrad Raab: "No, you don't trust me. Don't you see this is another stipulation match and having two in a row is too much."
Chris Richards: "While I understand that, but come on man, I want you to talk to Gia about the match, despite how much you dislike the match."
Konrad Raab: "As much as I want to only address Gia, I can't talk about a KO cage match. I'm happy to be back wrestling in Japan, but I'm not happy on being stuck in a cage and knocking her out."
Chris shakes his head, knowing it's another argument waiting to happen as they've been arguing a lot the last few weeks with not wanting to be in the rumble and stipulation random matches as he speaks.
Chris Richards: "Tell you what, you talk about Gia and I'll go to the press conference about KO cage match. Is that a deal?"
Konrad Raab: "Yeah fine. I just can't bare the thought of me even being excited about it."
Of course this lead to Konrad to do gym work and gets himself back on the treadmill as Chris leaves Konrad in the gym to go and attend the press conference to talk about the violent match Konrad so rightfully refuses. Konrad pushes himself farther than before on the treadmill to a point he couldn't run anymore as he goes off to do more training inside of the gym to lay in some punches on the punch bag for a little while, being very prepared, even if he had a match last night, he still plans to train for a couple more hours on lifting weights before he leaves the gym to head back to his apartment in Japan. He relaxes on the sofa for a bit, setting up cameras for a small video he has to do for WWH Showdown show tomorrow afternoon in Tokyo as he sighed on the thought of doing a video, but he knew he had to as he starts addressing it.

No need for this KO cage match youtube.com shoot.
"I don't know why I have to be the one to fight in a KO in a cage match, especially it's unnecessary for me and my opponent to fight in there, but I'll still do it, regardless of my thoughts of the situation and it's why I can't even bare the thought of talking about it cos I'm not a violent or a hardcore wrestler and I never will be, but what I'm able to talk about is Gia and how capable she is of defeating me which this match has given her a major advantage due to her experience, although I have too, but that's back in my early career when I was irresponsible and a rookie to the business. I do however see what James comes from with this match because we have a lot in common in terms of her strength and technical moves which is a style I wrestle in as well all the time.
I respect that cos it's very rare to see women have that ability in the ring these days and I respect her match she had against Szalinski, but you do realise I'm very different to the guy, right? Maybe he was unable to defeat you, but the fact you told Chris I was a coward is something I have to say about you. You wouldn't wrestle a normal match? It's pathetic because sure, I hate being stuck inside inside a cage to knock you out, but I'm still here because unlike you, I care about those fans and if I was a coward, I wouldn't be in Japan and stay at home in America which you would've done if you weren't in a KO in a Cage match.
That's what I'm not because I've wrestled in Falls Count Anywhere and the Elimination Chamber and I've said and thought the same about them matches as I have with this and isn't wrestling meant to be about proving your skills in the ring? I didn't even use the cage or weapons to my advantage because I'm the worst in these sort of matches and I have strong morals to not be violent or use weapons against people cos it's not who I am. I'm a wrestler who wrestles based on pure skill and just like what I did in the falls count anywhere and elimination chamber matches, I'm doing that exact same thing.
You can hurt, make me bleed all you want, but I won't because I stick to my morals on showing the fans I'm able to beat you without using my surroundings around me to my advantage cos I don't cheat or do illegal moves to win, I win matches usually by pinfall or submission, but I have to knock you out just based on the rules of this match and if that's what you want? You'll get because tomorrow night, prepare to be Iceinated by The Iceman who will overcome the odds against him to win this match."
