“I can't believe he would stoop that low...”
Jensen sighs as he leans back in his seat.
"Well, I mean, I CAN believe he could do something like this, just didn't think he'd actually do it."
Patrick, who is sitting on the other side of the small round table, shakes his head.
"It's fucked up, man. How could he lord the custody of Gage over you? This ain't the same Rhys we know, man."
"It basically is the fucked up part of him. We've seen the nice Rhys. We've seen the good guy Rhys. But we both know that he's always been that guy who loves fucking with people's minds. He tried it with damn near everyone he tortured when he still worked for The Family. And now, he's trying to mentally fuck with me before he tries to physically beat the hell out of me in a sanctioned match for the one thing I cherish above everything else.
On top of that, I got this match with Skylar Cloud for that title soon too."
"Dealing with Rhys and dealing with her must be very different."
Banks scoffs.
"Not at all. Deep down, they're the exact same person. They're both cowards. They both always want to take the easy way out it seems. And most importantly..."
Jensen pokes his temple a few times.
"They both love fucking with people's minds. Rhys has proven that with this whole custody bullshit and the blackmail stuff that didn't work before. Skylar has proven it by more physical means, getting her goons to attack me and hurt my back just two weeks before she gets in the ring. Then she's trying to bring up my family, hoping that it's enough to fuck with me."
"Is it?"
The Brooklyn native sighs.
"Let's just say that if I don't win on Thursday night...it just might be enough to screw with me.
And that's a big reason why I got to beat her...otherwise I'm a failure."

"It's been a long 12 days."
The video opens up to Jensen Banks, sitting in what seems to be his home in North Carolina. He seems to not have slept much judging by the bags under his eyes, and the smile he usually has on his face seems to have completely disappeared.
"It's been a long 12 days for me. It's been so long that throughout those days, I have thought and scrapped multiple ways I was going to go about making this video. Finally, on the 12th day, I decide that the only way to do it is by saying every thought that is roaming through my head about this match.
You know, when Skylar first started this whole thing weird creepy cult of hers, I didn't think much about it. Mainly cause she and I hadn't really crossed paths at the time and outside of a few tweets, had never really had a conversation. But then came the day where I decided to play hero and thought I was saving a defenseless woman, only to be tricked and be on the wrong side of a 2-on-1 attack.
At first, I was pretty pissed off about the fact that I got played like a fiddle, but as the days went on, I realized I kinda put myself in that scenario and had really no one to blame but myself. However, two weeks later, as I came out there, ready to resolve my issues with Skylar's dogs, Skylar intervened and said some stuff, but once my family was brought up and how I'm the black sheep...that's when I wanted to Bank Shot her head off of her shoulders. And that's what I did, albeit after tricking her into thinking I would join her and her group. Fast forward a few weeks later and Skylar returns the favor of me knocking her out by having her goons put me through the announce table. And since that attack, all I've had was time to think about this, and I realized one thing.
I need to make sure you do not walk out of At All Costs with that title.
I need to make sure you don't walk out with the championship because ever since you've had it, you've done nothing but spread this movement of yours. A movement I still want no part of. I need to make sure you don't walk out with the title because without that championship, that movement will meet a very big roadblock. I need to make sure you don't walk out with that belt...at all costs.
In two days, you and I get to put this conflict to bed...WHEN I walk out the Old North champion.
And you can...
BANK ON IT."
