But that isn't all. Kendrick is a new man since seeing the light in December 2016, and as a result he truly does realise that this is his final chance at glory. As a result, he gives himself no out, no excuse, no other option. At WrestleMania 33 Brian Kendrick decides to put his career on the line against TJ Perkins.

Kendrick and Perkins surely have a fantastic match in them, and by the time WrestleMania comes around you would assume that the champion would be more than comfortable in the tighter WWE style. The match would go on somewhere in the middle of the card, prefaced by one of those glorious WWE promo videos.

After a thrilling back and forth 16 minute match Kendrick would find himself locked in the Kneebar of Horror and Decay with nowhere to go. With his career on the line and redemption within his grasp, Brian Kendrick is faced with the biggest question and decision of his entire life. And he taps.

Post-match Kendrick gets a standing ovation from the Mania crowd, before being embraced backstage by Daniel Bryan in an emotional video for WWE on YouTube. The career of Brian Kendrick has always been one that is full of 'what could be', so what better way to finish than the realisation that redemption doesn't always equal success.
