From the Desk of Benny Mouse (Re: Mickey Mouse's 7/27 announcement)

Dear friends,

While we've been very busy in Stamford, I wanted to pause for a moment to pen this release in response to my brother Mickey's July 27th press conference -- if you could even call it that, what with his failures to take questions.

During that press gathering, Mickey announced that the PWI is in a perpetual state of chaos following the suspension of his presidential campaign (which was nothing but a money laundering farce -- a giant slush fund to garner cash from a minority population of uneducated wrestling fans, but I digress...)

Mickey cited the recent success of the EWA along with my niece, Catherine Mouse, assuming more of the spotlight than he cares to give up. Mickey would have us believe that his legacy is so important to him that he'd forego the most powerful position on the planet to resume his work in the world of professional wrestling.

In all truthfulness, Mickey never intended to allow Catherine the chance to succeed in his stead, as made evident at the third and final installment of From Dusk Til Dawn. As Catherine and I worked behind the scenes to put together the show as quickly as we did, Mickey watched from the sidelines, frustrated by his daughter's business decisions. I truly believe that part of the reason Mickey has decided to step back into the mix is because he felt Catherine ceded too much control over the show to myself, and he was worried by the message that would send to the world.

Catherine, on paper, was slated to make history as the most powerful woman in the history of our business. However, in all actuality, the moment the pair announced the rebirth of the PWI, I knew Mickey would take the reigns sooner rather than later.

In fact, in my July 7th memo to the press, I alleged that Mickey was always the true power within the PWI. He is and has always been afraid of the moment in which he became irrelevant, and with the EWA's growth and vision of the future, Mickey saw that time coming sooner than later.

So, with all that said, I must admit that I am disappointed to find out that I was right all along. Mickey will offer a "new" type of pro wrestling, in which he repeats tired concepts such as separate rosters with floating champions; he'll add divisions and titles with the mentality that bigger equals better.

We will not be splitting rosters in the EWA, and our growing list of Superstars and Knockouts will earn the TV time they receive. I won't subject our viewers to the mundane, as Catherine (and now Mickey) insist upon doing.

Also, I will open myself up to take any and all press questions in the near future. If anyone from the office in Nashville has a question, I will gladly answer, instead of running away from questions that might muddle whatever promotional message I'm attempting to send, as both my brother and niece have done countless times over the last several months.

Thank you all for reading, and I look forward to addressing more details in the near future.

Stay tuned!

Sincerely,

Benny Wade Mouse
