I received this via email this morning. It is what it is.

Mark, I know that you now must wake up every day and look in the mirror and what is on your mind - ZACH AVERY!

He did it Mark. Not you. HIM. And in an exclusive interview held on Ringside Confidential (614-470-3893) he claimed that HE was the one who had to carry you.

It has to be eating you up inside, huh?

100 years from now when people have forgotten about the WWE just like they have forgotten about the NWA and the only wrestling history that is worth recall is the mighty IWA, will they remember you? HMMMMMMMM. Will you be remembered as a a SUPERSTAR like Zach or will you be thought of more in the mold of Bones Dudley? BONES DUDLEY damn it. Is this your legacy?

But hey Mark, you are a good guy. And despite the fact that Zach is champ and you are not - I have decided to give you a consolation prize. It is not a shot at the coveted IWA Title, but it will have to do.

A POEM BY ED AFFLES
There once was a guy name Mark.
Who's wrestling career he tried to spark.
He had muscle all over.
But he had a face like Rover.
He could never get over.
Until he teamed up with Zach.

With Zach he did ok.
When opponents pushed him, he would tag Zach right away.
Zach told him, "go team with someone else, you are gay."
Go make videos and just stay out of my way.
The IWA is where the big boys play."

So Mark took his muscles and ran.
And in the IWA, Zach became the man.

I know Mark will read this poem toda-Y.
He will know that Zach is a Champ-E.
And Mark will still be doing gay flicks that are camp-E.
Some guy out there thinking about THE OMEGA's hershey highway ramp-E.

Ok, there was to many Es in the paragraph above.
But some of this bullshit really fits like a glove.
You do not have the belt but this is my gift to you.
What is it like to be the champ? If only you knew!

In the words of the immortal Wimpy Watson, "ha ha ha ha ha."

What it lacks in humor, it makes up for with poor taste. What else would you expect from the IWA? Maybe the IWA could have better spent the time updating their own web site.
