Just a few short days from Bound by Honor, DHW was able to catch up with Jack Arson, at a local training facility in St Louis shortly after his opponents for the gauntlet match was announced and gave the following statement between workouts.
"So its no surprise that I am facing a laundry list of some of the best talent ever put together for a common goal. I didnt figure that a Damone was going to make this easy on me, after all I was the one that asked for this match and half the talent on the roster leaped at the chance to show Drako that they deserve to be where I am. There is Shadow, who was a legend like what, 50 years ago..someone who might still have what it takes to wow a crowd, but when it comes down to it is just another guy who checked out of the retirement home to dust off his boots for one more crack at the limelight. Rick Muhammad, Zach Carlson, these guys are talented young guys but havent stepped inside a DHW ring with me in the state that I am. After Bound by Honor, I am gonna be the biggest threat to whoever it is that walks out of Bound by Honor with MY Championship, because I am gonna destroy each and every person stupid enough to step into the ring with me."
