A heartfelt goodbye from Alex Hammerstone
Alex Hammerstone spoke to the live crowd last night following the MLW Fusion tapings in New York. Here’s a recap of what he said courtesy of PWInsider:
“Hammerstone took the mic and said he had tryouts for all these different promotions and everyone passed on him. Court Bauer saw him and said he wanted to bring Hammerstone in. He wanted to sign him to a three year contract because he saw something in him. Before the deal was up, he upped the pay 10X. A lot of people say a lot about Court and MLW and it hasn’t been all sunshine and rainbows but they took a kid and made him into a man.
They take a boy and made him a wrestling superstar. Tonight might be the last time he’s in an MLW ring for the foreseeable future, but his ego wants to say that MLW was built with bricks and fused with his DNA, but the truth is Hammerstone is built with bricks and fused with MLW’s DNA. Whatever he does from this point forward, he will be the guy that MLW built.
He said it’s not about him anymore. It’s about the hungry boys and girls in the back. He began naming talents and said they are going to make MLW a success going forward. He apologized for getting long winded and said he loves the fans and thank you. As he left, Court Bauer came out and hugged him.”
