It’s funny, I remember when I wrote last year’s anniversary message and it doesn’t feel like a whole year has gone by. I remember mentioning that I never had the chance to meet him, like so many others have and I also remember that this time, last year, he was out injured after tearing his pectoral muscle. I know that this sounds cliche but how time changes many things.

Back in February, as everyone knows, Christian made his return to the WWE at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view and has been at the top of his game ever since. He stood by his best friend, Edge’s (Adam Copeland) side during what was to be his last match at Wrestlemania 27 earlier this year and after Edge’s sudden retirement Christian became a main eventer and won the World Heavyweight Championship for the first time at the Extreme Rules pay-per-view. Sure, he lost it on the following Smackdown broadcast, but he was able to win the Championship back from Randy Orton at Money In The Bank, back in July. Even though he may no longer be the World Heavyweight Champion, he’s still doing the Peeps proud and no matter what, we’ll always be there cheering him on, whether he likes it or not!

Now that the little round up of the year is taken care of, I want to take the time to thank each and every one of you that take the time to visit the site. It sounds sappy but I wouldn’t still being going on if it wasn’t for you guys. As most of you know it’s been a tough few months for me, but I knew that, even though there was many times that I felt like giving up I just couldn’t do it. Sure there’s a few more Christian sites out there than there was when I first started let’s face it, there wasn’t ANY when I first started lol and I know that I’ve not been trying as much as I used to recently, but I’m happy to say that the recent lack of anything on this site and my lack of wanting to work on it, is a thing of the past. I want to thank you guys and at the same time apologise for just letting the site sit here and look pretty.

I know that I thank Carmisha and David every year, but as I say every year, if it wasn’t for them, there would be no Instant Classic! Thanks also to everyone that has stuck by me and the site for the past three years, how crazy has it been?! To our new visitors, thanks so much for taking the time to check the site out and I hope that I’m doing the best job that I can! Another big thank you to everyone out there, whether you’ve just stumbled upon the site, you casually check it out, you’ve donated anything, sent me messages, just thank you for being apart of making Instant Classic the best source for Jay ‘Christian’ Reso!

As always, I HAVE to thank the man himself, Christian! Most of you don’t know this, he doesn’t know it himself, but he helped me out a hell of a lot after the passing of my Nan back in July and I can’t even explain how much I appreciated how he helped me. So thank you again Christian, so much. Also thank you for giving me the chance to meet you back in April, something that I will never forget and I really did appreciate you taking the time to talk to me, even if it was only for a few minutes. Thank you for eveything that you’ve done for all of the Peeps around the world and you know that no matter what, we’ll continue to support you 100%. Thanks again for everything and I really hope that the site makes you proud!

Lastly, as a little gift to you all and for our 3rd anniversary, I’ve added two high quality photos to the gallery! Happy 3rd Anniversary Instant-Classic.org and thanks to each and every one of you for being apart of it!
