All of this was in his pursuit to change how blading is done worldwide. Not due to any insecurities. There's nothing from him that indicates that.
He literally was fuming when he demanded Gwyn to make a better part. The despair in his face as he was beaten. He wants to be powerful cause he's actually weak. Literally everything points to him actually being weak. With the gimmick exploited he always loses cause he didn't have an actually bond with Apocalypse, he just wanted to use it so he seemed powerful.
He wanted that part to in order to accomplish his goal of changing the blading league. Dante was in his way. There's absolutely nothing in the dialogue or inner monologue that lends to that. That may be how you interpret it, which is fine, but there's nothing in the script that lends credence to that. He stated from the beginning that he wanted to replace the blading league with one centered around strength. That was his goal.
