“Damn it!” shouts Violet as she slams her iPod onto the ground. She couldn’t believe that her mission on destroying Candy hadn’t come to fruition. Violet thought she would kick the living shit out of her before finally getting her opportunity at regaining the one championship she hadn’t lost.

“What’s the matter Vi?” her Aunt Caroline asks with concern in her voice. Violet glances over her shoulder while keeping her eyes narrowed.

“The new card for Climax Control was just announced,” answers Violet as she walks over toward the barbell station in her father’s gym. Violet felt more at home in this gym then the other gyms she had to visit due to the pandemic.

“Are you getting your rematch?” asks Caroline.

Violet violently shakes her head while wrapping her fingers around the 30 pound barbell. Caroline doesn’t know what to say. “You don’t deserve a rematch,” booms a voice that causes both ladies to jump a bit. Caroline whips her head around as Violet just rolls her eyes in annoyance.

“What the hell do you want dad?” she asks.

“I want you to stop acting like you are the victim,” he answers.

Violet looks over her shoulder at her father while raising her eyebrow. “What the hell are you talking about daddy?” she questions him.

Dustin shakes his head while crossing his arms in front of his chest. He looks at his baby sister before turning his attention back towards his daughter. “For months, you have been crying like a victim. The time for crying is over with Violet. It’s that you started acting like a Holt. We are known for holding grudges and fighting till our hands bleed. It’s time you picked up that legacy and carry it into the SCW,” he tells her while giving her a stern look.

Violet turns to face her father while cocking her head to the side. “Are you actually giving me permission to be the crazy ass bitch that you wanted me to be all this time?” she asks him sarcastically. She knew deep in her heart that the only way anyone would take her seriously would be to fully embrace the five feet of crazy that lies inside of her. She knew that her opponent for this upcoming Climax Control wouldn’t know what to do against her.

Her father nods his head while turning away from Violet and heading back towards his office. Caroline follows him as they were discussing re-opening the Dog Pound Wrestling Academy. Violet watches at the two of them disappear. She then pulls out her cell phone and proceeds to film herself talking about Climax Control.

”Hello Sin City Wrestling nation, I’m going to be completely honest with you. Summer XXXtreme sucked. It really did especially since that shit stain named Candy walked out of our match with the victory. I don’t know how that happened but you can rest assured I will get payback on that skunk bag. Until that day comes, I will thoroughly enjoy putting Jessie Salco through hell. According to the match preview, it says that she appears to be “frustrated” whatever the hell that is supposed to mean.

I’d like to know how she can be frustrated. Does she even know what frustrated means? For the past several weeks, this bitch has received more title opportunities than anyone. What has she done with them? She failed. She blew every opportunity. How did she respond? She gave excuse after excuse. Well, I got news for you Jessie.”

Violet pauses for a minute to bring her face closer towards the camera.

”You know nothing about being frustrated. You see these eyes Jessie. This is the look of frustration. These are the eyes of someone who is merely pissed off. Do you have any idea what kind of hornet’s nest you are walking into this Sunday? You see Jessie. I’m not coming to Climax Control to play games. I’m coming to kick some serious ass. I don’t give a fucking damn about how frustrated you might be Jessie. Because I’m going to unleash all this pent up rage and aggression that has been boiling up inside of me.

Unfortunately, that spells trouble for your punk ass. You see I’m going to pummel you so badly that even your own boyfriend won’t recognize you. I’m going to enjoy tossing your ass halfway around the ring before dropping you with a vicious purple rainmaker. You see Jessie. I’m not going to use this match to gain myself a title match. Oh no. I’m going to use this match to send a firm warning to every bitch who thinks about going after the Bombshell roulette championship. I am going to hurt you. I’m going to maul you. I’m going to embarrass you. Then I’m going to show the entire world just how pathetic you truly are in the end.

So Jessie, I wouldn’t say a fucking thing about you being frustrated because come Climax Control. YOU MEET FRUSTRATION. Catch you soon bitch.

 WHO IS BRANDON SLUDGE?
<p align=right>Life in between wrestling
Off Camera

They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions. That’s what Brandon Saunders had thought before joining the wrestling business. He had dabbled in amateur wrestling throughout his early twenties after graduating from high school. He did fairly well as he racked up multiple national and international world championships. He almost made it to the olympics until his passion for wrestling had slowed due to becoming bored with the mundane. Brandon thought long and hard about what he wanted to do with the rest of his life. So he made the decision to follow his second passion in life which happened to be weightlifting and powerlifting. Brandon had become a household name after winning several strongman competitions. Eventually, this would lead into his first career of bodybuilding.

Brandon and his wife Zelda had traveled all over the world as he pursued his passion of becoming the best bodybuilder in the world. Zelda knew that this was just going to be a fleeting moment since Brandon has constantly been watching his best friend and ex-girlfriend Daniela Rodgers competing on the independent wrestling circuit. He could feel his passion for wrestling building back up as he continued to compete in strongman competitions. One day in 2013, Brandon was just pulling out of the Dickey-Stephens Park when his wife Zelda blurts out one single question.

“Are you sure this is what you want to do with your life?”

That question lingers in the air for at least a minute until he tilts his head slightly to the left while keeping his eyes on the road. He answers with “Why?” Zelda shakes her knowing that her husband is trying very hard to avoid the question. “I know you don’t want to be a bodybuilder for the rest of your life. I know that you miss throwing people around like they are rag dolls,” she says in response to his question. Brandon doesn’t say a single word as he drives down the road. Silence fills the car for at least an hour until “I don’t know,” bellows out from Brandon’s voice. Zelda places her hand onto her husband’s shoulder.

“I will support you in whatever you want to do,” she says wholeheartedly as Brandon takes a deep breath. “I think my passion for wrestling never went away. I think it just went dormant due to my lack of motivation to stick with the sport,” he explains as his wife just listens. “I should give Coach Bliss a call and see if he could schedule me in for some training,” he adds as his wife smiles. She knew in her heart that her husband was the happiest inside a wrestling ring.  

<p align=right>Before signing with Sin City Wrestling

In the summer of 2014, Brandon Saunders had been training for months. He had started to show signs of improving as Coach Bliss was watching from the gym floor. Brandon had passed each test with flying colors and was moving onto sparring with another trainee. Brandon and his fellow trainee were having a practice match when the doors to the gym opened up. The little bell above the door jingles as Coach Bliss looks over his shoulder. A slight smile appears across his lips as he keeps watching his two students show him what they have learned. “Watch those fists Brandon,” Coach Bliss warns him as the individual crosses the floor as Coach looks over his shoulder again.
“Welcome back Danni,” he says without moving his eyes from the ring. “Thanks Coach,” she says while looking at the ring. “How’s he doing?” she asks with a curious tone in her voice. Coach Bliss doesn’t answer right away as Brandon hits a back body drop on his training partner. “He is making great strides. It’s almost like he never left,” Coach Bliss finally answers as Danni nods her head. Danni recalls the few times she and Brandon had teamed up before he left for personal reasons. “Do you think he is ready? She asks Coach Bliss.

“Give him a few more years and he will be ready,” he answers her.

A few years later, Danni and Brandon started competing together on the independent circuit. They had become quite the tandem. Every now and then, Brandon would branch out on his own and do fairly well for himself. When Daniela signed with Sin City Underground, Brandon continued to wrestle on his own. He was building quite a legacy for himself. However on the last day of 2019, that is when everything changed for him. Daniela calls him and asks if he was interested in resurrecting their team. He didn’t have to say a word as Daniela had already known the answer. When they debuted earlier this year, Daniela and Brandon made quite an impression on the bosses.

<p align=right>After Signing with Sin City Wrestling

Since signing with Sin City Wrestling, Brandon had only been in tag team matches. only been in tag team matches. Brandon had no idea that he would finally get a chance to showcase what he can do on his own. This Sunday on Climax Control, Brandon will be getting his opportunity to show the world why he is just as good on his own as he is with the Trenton Tigers. With Covid 19 still causing havoc in the United States, Brandon has decided to video tape his promo from inside his hotel room.

Hello Sin City Wrestling, this is Brandon Sludge from the Trenton Tigers. I can’t even begin to express how excited I am about getting my first solo match on Climax Control. I mean ever since I signed with this promotion, I thought I would just be stuck in the tag team division. Don’t get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy being in the tag team division. I love teaming with Char and Daniela but there are times I enjoy wrestling on my own. Thanks to Christian Underwood and Mark Ward, I get my opportunity to prove myself.

My opponent, O’Malley, is one of the most talented superstars on the entire roster. He is a former SCU Champion and has had some success on the main roster. Although, recently he has been on quite a skid but I’m sure he will find his way out of it. However, I am also on a skid since I haven’t won a match since beating Malachi and Bella Madison. It’s been quite difficult knowing that you can out power everyone but still come up short.

I know that I do tend to underestimate my opponent but I will not make that mistake again. O’Malley is the kind of superstar who can take control when giving the opportunity so I must limit those chances. I must showcase my strength. I must use my high in ring intelligence to thwart everything he might throw at me. I know he is probably desperate for a win which means he is going to be entering this match with a lot of emotion built up. I, myself, have some pent up aggression but I must channel it.

O’Malley had better not overlook me because it would prove a massive mistake on his part. I know that he is highly skilled on the ground but so am I. I am a world class amateur wrestler who has an immense amount of power. I am a suplex machine. My power knows no boundaries. I know my speed is questionable but make no mistake. I will lead with my head and not my feet. I sure hope O’Malley is ready for me. I hope he doesn’t let Darcy talk him into doing something stupid against me. If he thinks of matching me strength for strength then he will be in for a very rough night. I really hope he doesn’t follow the same narrative that everyone uses against me. I am well aware that I will never win a beauty contest. I know that I am not the most attractive male on the roster but that’s not who I am. I can be your worst nightmare. I know you are looking for a win but so am I.

I have this feeling that O’Malley is going to question my passion. My passion is overflowing from my body that I can’t even contain it. I bleed for this business and I will continue to bleed for this business. I’m more than ready to shut him up for good. O’Malley will be another victim who will fall to the Sludge. So O’Malley, bring everything you got and gather all the lucky charms you can find. Because that is the only way you can get past me.

I am focused on hurting you. I am determined to make you regret asking for a match with me. I am out to prove that I belong in Sin City Wrestling. It’s time for the Sludge-O-Rama. See you on Sunday.

 

It’s been a long time since Char Kwan has been this excited since joining the wrestling business. Her chance to regain a championship she never lost. Climax Control could be the night history is made. Before she could share her own thoughts on the situation, she can be seen sitting in the living room of her home in Walnut Creek, California. She is watching one of her good friends Spencer Gosling play a game of Madden NFL 20. She is enjoying some company since the announcement of social distancing. Char is sitting in her recliner which is six feet from her couch with her legs curled up underneath her.

“You aren’t having any luck are you,” she comments while watching her friend getting beat by the computer. Spencer is grumbling underneath his breath while trying to figure out how to get back into the game. “Luck has nothing to do with it. It’s proof that my game has lacked since this quarantine came into effect,” he replies before screaming at the television after throwing an interception. Char is softly chuckling underneath her breath while watching her friend struggle.

“Have you talked to Jackson since returning to Sin City Wrestling?” Spencer asks while pausing the game to pick up a soda off of the coffee table. “I spoke to him when I resigned back in May. He was happy that my career won’t come to an end before I was ready,” she answers in between sips of her water. Spencer exits out of the game while putting the wireless controller onto the couch cushion. Spencer stands up to his feet as Char picks at her fingernails.

“What are you doing Spence?” she asks curiously. “I’m looking to see what other games you have,” he answers while walking towards Char’s entertainment center. Spencer thumbs through her different titles before looking over his shoulder. He notices Char seems a little down on herself. “What’s the matter Char?” he asks with a voice of concern. “I’m wondering if it was worth it. My friendship with Daniela is important to me but everyone else doesn’t seem to have any respect for me,” she answers. Spencer stops looking at her game titles and turns to face her.

“Fuck them,” he says. “Spencer!!!” she replies with astonishment. “What?” he questions with confusion on his face. “You know I don’t appreciate that kind of language,” she answers. Spencer shakes his head. “Sometimes Char, you have to resort to that kind of language in order to get your point across. Sometimes you have to force people to respect you,” he adds. Char listens to what he was saying as she contemplates on everything she has done in her career.

As she continues to converse with Spencer, her phone dings. Char looks down at it and smiles when she notices a text message from Cheryl Hastings. Char smiles as she replies to the text. Char looks up at Spencer who is confused. “What was that Char?” he asks her point blank. “That was Cheryl. She was letting me know that Brandon Sludge and myself will be representing the Trenton Tigers on June 28 in the main event on Climax Control. I just was telling her that I’m in it to win it,” she tells him. Spencer looks around the room before picking up a video camera off the third shelf of another bookcase. Char smiles as she places her feet on the floor and pushes herself up out of the chair. Spencer motions to her that he is ready to record the video.

Hello everyone from Walnut Creek, California. I thought I could have used some rest and relaxation after watching my teammates once again come up short. I know it has to be painful for my best friend Daniela. She has been very vocal about wanting to become a champion here in Sin City Wrestling. I want her to become a champion. I, myself, would love to regain a championship that I never lost in the first place.

Before I can add more gold to my championship wall, I need to get the job done on June 28 in the Go Gym. Now I am fully aware that Wolfslair has been one of the most dominating teams to have held those belts or so they say. I remember Team Eggplant saying the same exact thing but my old team Gamer Inc proved them wrong. It will be just as sweet when Brandon and I shove our boots straight down your throats. I have heard all those idiotic comments that Joanna made and I have to question her logic.

She claims that she could win every single title in the women’s division. How is that possible? You lost to Andrea in your debut match. How many times did you end up losing on your own before teaming with Alex? The same question can be posed to Alex Jones. You both have made a lot of comments but every single word just came out of your asses instead of your mouths. It has to be very frustrating to know that your opponents make excellent comments about you and yet you dismiss them.

I mean ever since you showed up Alex. You haven’t done a damn thing you promised. You promised to the world you could beat Fenris but failed. You promised that you could beat Griffin Hawkins but failed. You failed on your own so you had to find someone who failed just as much as you did. You and Joanna have been a great force. You have been an incredible team. However, your arrogance overshadows your own intelligence. London Underground is another team that operates under the freebird rule. We just use to make you guys actually think for a second. We want you to understand that everyone in the Trenton Tigers is hungry for gold.

You question our passion. My passion for this business is so high that sometimes I forget that I have other passions in life. My heart hurts for this business. I have had more heartaches in this business than I have had anywhere else in my life. My love for this business is unmatched. Yes, I love playing video games but when it comes to competing inside that ring I just can’t get enough. That is why when I returned to Sin City Wrestling I wanted a solo match before putting all my focus on being a team player.

Let’s talk about talent. Joanna, I’m sorry but I just don’t see any talent inside your body. Why do I say this? Because, I have watched every match you have competed in and haven’t found anything that would make me excited about facing you. You let your anger dictate on what you do inside that ring. You have proven that you lack the discipline to string moves together. Hell, I’ve seen you against Daniela. I must say you had no answer for her at all. I see the same thing happening when you go up against me. The difference between Daniela and myself is that I’m more balanced. I utilize a great ground game but I can fly with the best of them. Joanna has no idea what awaits her this Sunday. She can make all the claims she wants but in the end it won’t work.

Brandon and myself are going to prove that our chemistry is unmatched. We will work together with one goal in mind. Alex Jones and Joanna both have hidden agendas. They don’t want to be the best team. They want to be the best individuals. The Japanese Siren will strike when you least expect it. It’s time for a new champion to emerge and THE TIGERS are coming to town.

 A day in the life of Daniela Rodgers
Off Camera

It’s a beautiful Tuesday morning as Daniela V. Rodgers is standing in front of the large mirror inside her hotel room. She is trying to find the right mask to wear around the lower part of her face. The reflection inside the mirror shows Daniela holding one mask with a wild print on both sides as Char Kwan is sitting on the foot of the bed. “What you do think about this one?” Daniela asks her good friend. “I think that one will work,” Char responds with a genuine smile on her lips. Daniela continues to look through her pile of masks as Char is flipping through the channels on the television.

“Where are you going anyway?” Char wonders. “I haven’t decided yet. I just need to get out of this room for a spill,” she replies. Char looks at her with a look of amusement on her face. “What is wrong being inside a room that is fully paid for?” she jokes. Daniela giggles as she pulls out a mask with the Avengers logo plastered across it. “There you are my darling friend,” she says while holding the mask up near eye level. Char looks at her while trying to stifle a laugh. “What?” Danni asks as she notices the look on Char’s face. “Oh nothing,” she lied while turning her attention back towards the television screen. “You are the worst,” joked Danni.

Char shrugs her shoulders as Danni slips the mask over her left ear as it dangles just slightly. “I’m off for a while Char,” she announces. “Have fun and be safe,” Char calls out as Danni opens the door and steps across the threshold. Danni places the mask over her nose and mouth. She moves down the hallway towards the elevator. Danni lifts her cell phone out of her left hip pocket as she looks down at the screen. With her eyes averted, she doesn’t see the bellhop moving towards her with a luggage cart. “Excuse me,” the bellhop shoots out trying to get her attention.

Danni lifts her eyes up at the last split second as she sidesteps the luggage cart. The bellhop couldn’t slow down his speed as the luggage cart fell over with him falling over it. “Oh my,” she gasps at the sight in front of her. She takes a few steps toward him. “Are you alright?” she calls out. The bellhop sits up while slapping his hands onto one of the black bags. “Mr. Saxon is not going to like this one bit,” he utters. “Are you alright?” Danni asks again as she kneels down to provide him a hand. “Uh,” he sputters while looking up slightly to see Danni kneeling next to him. “Oh yes, I am quite alright, miss,” he finally answers her as he pushes himself back up to his feet. “I’m Daniela,” she introduces herself while standing right back up.

The bellhop looks at her while trying to clean himself up a bit. “Daniela Rodgers,” he retorts. She gave him a head nod while giving him a hand with the luggage cart. “I see you watch a lot of wrestling,” she says. “Yes, I love Sin City Wrestling. I’m very much looking forward to seeing if you and Brandon can pull out the win in the tag title match,” he replies. Daniela nods her head toward him again. “That's the plan anyway,” she says.

The two continue to conversate with each other as Cheryl steps out of her room holding an ice bucket. “Danni, what are you doing?” she asks curiously. Daniela looks over her shoulder and lets out a soft sigh. “What’s the matter?” the bellhop quietly asks her. “Nothing,” she mutters while turning on her heels to face her manager. “Hi Cheryl,” she says politely. The bellhop is a little confused as he watches the two ladies. His eyes, however, seem to catch glimpses of how shapely Daniela’s body has become over the years.

“Danni, where are you going?” asks Cheryl. “I was heading out for a bit when I hit a snag,” she answers. Danni glances down while moving six feet away from both the bellhop and Cheryl. “I am a bonehead. I should have kept myself six feet apart from both of you,” she states. The  bellhop hadn’t really noticed as his eyes seemed to have stars inside them. “I guess it would be alright if you got some fresh air. Remember, we have a couple media days next week for Into The Void,” reminds Cheryl. Daniela nods her head while turning away from her and heading back towards the elevator. “Talk to you later,” she says while looking back at the bellhop. She gives a wink of her eye as the elevator doors ding. The doors slide open as Daniela steps inside them. Cheryl shakes her head while stepping around the luggage cart while heading for the ice machine.

I will take the blame for what has transpired over the last couple of weeks. Blaze of Glory was a true second chance for Brandon and myself after we failed in our first attempt. The road for us was a long one and it had many curves. We stayed the course and managed to earn our shot at Wolfslair. It’s my fault that we tried to pass off the title shot to my best friend and my twin brother. I didn’t think it would turn into this big ordeal. I screwed up but I will not let that shake my confidence. I’m well aware how confident the reigning tag team champions are heading into this match.

Alex Jones is one of the most popular superstars in Sin City Wrestling or at least that’s what he wants everyone to think. How many times does he always have to mention his world championship reigns in other companies? How many times must we hear about how successful he was prior to his run here in Sin City Wrestling? Ever since, you have gotten here Alex. You have failed every time to claim the world heavyweight championship. You also failed to claim the roulette championship? How many chances did you have at each? Each time was a complete failure and yet you continue to talk like you are this great wrestler.

I listen to every word that spews out of your mouth and I have to question your logic. Everyone knows that you joined the mixed tag team division because you saw an easy division to conquer. It wasn’t about competition. It was about putting a magical spin on your landish tale. That’s all this is Alex. It’s a ruse. We all know deep inside you are jealous of Alicia Lukas and Austin. Both members of Wolfslair, have continued their rise to the top while you fell to the bottom. That must have hurt your pride Alex. The fact that your cockiness has done more harm to your precious career than any good.

The same could be said about your tag team partner Joanna. She had what one match before teaming with you. What happened in that match? She lost. I love how you both never miss a beat with the embellishment over how good you truly are in the ring. I’ve seen you compete Joanna. You are sloppy. You are powered by anger but that’s all you have in the end. Your moveset is one dimensional. You aren’t quick on your feet. If it were just Brandon and I against the two of you then it would be a great match for the ages.

However, the team that we had already beaten to earn this title opportunity couldn’t handle the loss. Bella Madison, you are an incredible talent no doubt about it. You have potential that one day you will be a champion in Sin City Wrestling. Unfortunately, that moment will not come at Into The Void. I’m sorry that you felt cheated but let’s not forget who took the pinfall in our last match up. This time around I feel that history will once again repeat itself.

I’m not going to waste my breath on Malachi. The guy has had numerous opportunities and has failed every single one of them. How many chances are you going to receive? Last time, you said that you were stronger than Brandon and yet that backfired on you badly. Brandon and I are more than ready to take the reigns as Mixed Tag team champions.

The difference between the two of us and the rest of you guys. We know what the other is going to do before they even do it. I don’t see that kind of chemistry with Bella and Malachi. Alex and Joanna don’t even have the same level of teamwork that we have inside that ring. The Trenton Tigers are a team both teams shouldn’t take lightly. If you want to take us lightly then be our guest. Just don’t go crying to Mark or Christian when we embarrass the living snot out of you all.

I just wish the SCW Nation could witness this in person. Since that isn’t in the cards at this point in time, the Tigers are going to SHOCK THE SYSTEM. For whatever reason you aren’t able to catch Into The Void live on pay per view then don’t forget to SET YOUR D..V...R!!!!!!

 “You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” CS Lewis



Rodgers’ Family Home
January 14, 2020

Sweating is dripping down Vector’s face as he stands just outside his garage with one of his hands holding down the handle of his push lawn mower. His wife Carolyn is sitting on a lawn chair holding a cup of tea in her right hand. Vector starts up the lawn mower as Carolyn watches with happiness all over her face. “You are looking good babe,” Caorlyn shouts as Vector just waves his hand. It’s obvious that he couldn’t actually hear her. “Such a handsome man,” Carolyn continues to spew out as she watches her husband doing yard work.

It has been a while since Carolyn had her husband home for a longer time than a week or two. A few minutes later, Vector comes over towards his wife with his chest glistening in the sunlight. Carolyn is in awe of her husband’s physique when the sound of his cell phone rings over them. “Are you expecting anyone?” Carolyn asks as she reaches for his phone sitting on the table next to her. “No, I’m not expecting anyone,” he answers her in between sips of his Mountain Dew. Carolyn nods her head as she swipes the phone left to hang up the phone call. Vector finishes his Dew and gives his wife a slight peck on her cheek before moving back towards the lawn mower.

Caorlyn watches him walk away from her as she leans back in her chair.

Vector’s training session
Before Covid-19

The days had begun to blend together as Vector was getting restless at home. He had enjoyed spending time with his lovely wife. One day, his wife had gone to work so he thought it would be a perfect time to hit the All Stars Gym in Gainesville, Florida. Vector pulls into the parking lot driving his 66 Chevy Camaro. He takes a vacant spot before turning the engine off. He steps out of the vehicle before reaching behind his seat and pulling out his gym bag. He slings the strap over his chest while shutting the door. He proceeds to do a full one eighty degree turn as he heads toward the front door.

Vector opens the door and steps over the threshold. “Rodgers, you are late,” a voice booms out as Vector stops at the small desk and picks up a clipboard sitting on top of it. “How can I be late Coach? I didn’t set an appointment,” Vector fires back at Coach Peters, the man responsible for training him, his sister, and Brandon Sludge. “Do you always have to be a smart ass?” he asks Vector. Vector smiles. “I can’t help it Coach,” he answers with a smirk. “Rodgers, drop and give me fifty,” Coach Peters orders him. “Do you want that in small bills or a cashier’s check?” he replies. The veins in his neck start to pop as he looks Vector directly into the eyes.

“Knock off the wise ass remarks and give me fifty push ups,” Coach demands as Vector chuckles. Vector does as Coach wants. Vector pops back up after the first set of fifty. “Why the full court press,” wonders Vector. “You have made this gym look bad with your lackluster performance in Sin City Underground,” the Coach states as Vector shakes his head. He didn’t want to relive his failed attempt at being a solo performer. “I’m going to hit the bag,” he mutters while stepping away from Coach. Coach Peters nods his head while watching him.

A few hours later, Vector is having a sparring session with Coach Peters as he works on his footwork. “Your footwork has improved since you first started,” Coach admires as he continues to work with his first student. The two continue to spar when the bell over the front door jingles. “Keep your hands up,” Coach instructs Vector. “May I help you?” the receptionist of the gym asks the lady standing in front of the door. “Yes, I am looking for Vector Rodgers,” the lady answers. “He’s in the ring with Coach Peters,” the receptionist motions with her three fingers. “Thank you,” the lady says politely while moving across the floor towards the ringside area.

Vector executes a perfect suplex as Coach Peters rolls over toward the ring ropes and grabs his lower back. “Damn!” he shouts. “I take it we are done for the day,” Vector wonders as he kneels next to his coach while holding out his hand. Coach Peters reaches his hand up and nods his head. “Excuse me,” a voice echoes as both men turn their heads toward the lady wearing a beige sundress. “Cheryl!?” questions Vector.

Confusion floods his face as Cheryl steps two inches closer toward the ring. “Hello Vector,” she says softly. “What are you doing here?” he asks her while stepping through the ropes and sitting onto the apron. “Your sister needs your help,” Cheryl answers. Vector’s eyes and ears lit up when his sister was mentioned. “Tell me more,” he tells Cheryl while hopping off the apron. Cheryl nods her head as they head off toward the gym’s office.

Can you believe how my luck has changed since January of this year? My contract expires for Sin City Underground and I’m sitting at home being a normal husband. It was an awesome time to recharge and relax. However, as time went by, I was starting to lose myself. I kept myself in shape by visiting my home gym each chance I got while my lovely wife was at work. When Cheryl Hastings came to me, I immediately hopped onto the first flight and came right back to Las Vegas.

I was there when my sister and her best friend did the unthinkable. Daniela and Brandon proved to the world that they were a team to watch for in 2020. I know what Char and I tried to do on the following episode of Climax Control wasn’t very cool. However, the fact that you two jack legs couldn’t be adults about it and say it to our faces showed how immature you two really are. The fact that you two couldn’t even handle a loss makes me wonder if this should be your last chance.

I know my track record thus far isn’t very spectacular but I am the wild card in this entire scenario. I have seen how your body of work is thus far Malachi. You are sloppy at best. You claimed to be stronger than Brandon. However you failed to deliver. You have failed each time during a major match. What makes this match any different? This Climax Control marks my official debut for Sin City Wrestling. I am looking forward to showing just how talented I am inside that ring. I may not possess the power that Brandon has but I am the most technical wrestler within the Trenton Tigers. I am also quick for my size. I am incredibly intelligent. I am always thinking three moves ahead of anyone I am facing. This match should be no different. I am confident that Char Kwan will outperform your precious Bella. I am not worried about that in the slightest. We have nothing to truly gain in this match except experience and to prove that no matter what the Trenton Tigers are a true team.

Now Malachi, I hope you are ready for a fight because the King of Throwbacks is going to break you down. Let the good times roll.

The sun was dancing through the blinds as they were half opened in front of the windows. Daniela was enjoying a nice little catnap after doing a five mile run. Of course, she donned a mask around the lower thirds of her face. As Daniela is sound asleep, Cheryl is stepping off the elevator after it stops on the fifth floor. She was muttering to herself after that meeting with Brandon. In her mind, Brandon wasn't on the page with her as it pertains to the team as a whole. She thought he was more focused on the match on Sunday then to listen rationally. She has high hopes that Daniela will side with her. Daniela is still sleeping as Cheryl makes to her door. She gives it a quick knock but doesn't get a response. "What the hell?" Cheryl gripes under her breath.

Cheryl knocks another three times before grumbling to herself while digging into her pocket for her universal room key for the Trenton Tigers. Daniela rolls onto her side as her light brown hair drapes across her cheek. Cheryl swipes her cardkey into the card reader and turns the handle on the door. "Hey Dani, you got a min....," Cheryl starts to speak until she stops midsentence. Her eyes couldn't believe what she was seeing. Daniela V. Rodgers sound asleep in the middle of the day. Cheryl knew this self imposed quarantine wasn't doing Daniela any good. She's not used to being couped inside all day and all night. Cheryl takes her right index finger and scratches the right side of her face. She is trying to figure out a good way to wake up Dani without her getting grouchy.

"Dani," Cheryl calls out softly while quietly shaking Dani's shoulder. "Not now mommy," Dani mutters as Cheryl lifts her left eyebrow up a bit. She didn't know if Dani was calling her mommy or if it was just a dream. Cheryl taps the side of her head before using the same hand to tap Dani on the same shoulder she tried shaking. "Dani," she voices softly as Dani's hazel eyes open up.
"Hello beautiful," Cheryl greets her friend and client with a generous tone to her voice. "What time is it?" asks Dani groggily. "It's almost two in the afternoon," answers Cheryl as Dani is using her elbows to prop herself against the headboard. "I can't believe I slept that long," she murmurs as Cheryl pulls out the chair sitting under the long table next to the television set. "Dani, we need to talk," Cheryl blurts out as Dani just blinks her eyes. "About what exactly," wonders Daniela. "Adding more members to the team," retorts Cheryl. Daniela rolled her eyes before looking back at Cheryl.

"Can't this wait until after Blaze of Glory," comments Daniela. Cheryl looks dumbfounded at the words that came out of Daniela's mouth. "Did you talk to Brandon sometime today?" implores Cheryl. "No, why?" she questions with a quizzical look on her face. "Because that was almost the same exact thing he said to me," answers Cheryl. Daniela chuckles a little. "We are best friends after all Cheryl. Not to mention we have been teaming for a long time," she says. Cheryl couldn't help but chuckle herself. She knew how well the two worked as a tag team.

"Why is this match so important to the both of you?" wonders Cheryl. "It's our chance to prove to the world that we can get the job done with just the two of us. Besides, I don't know who you have in mind to join us," answers Daniela. Cheryl smirks. "I got a few ideas," she says. Daniela just shrugs her shoulder while getting up off the bed. "What are you doing?" Cheryl asks Daniela. "I'm going to get shower. I meant to do it after I got back from my five mile run but I fell asleep before I could do it," answers Daniela as she steps into the bathroom. Cheryl shakes her head while stepping over to the sink on the outside. She scrubs her hands with soap and water before walking back out of the room.

<p align=right>A Video Reaction

It's been three hours since Cheryl had vacated Daniela's hotel room. Daniela is sitting at her computer with her hair tossed up into a messy style bun and she is wearing a sports style tank top. She is also wearing her glasses as she lets her contacts rest in its solution. "Hmmmm," she expresses while moving her wireless mouse around her desktop. She scrolls around the page before double clicking on the camcorder icon. It pops open as she adjusts her camera positioned on top of her computer. "Let's see," she mumbles to herself as she turns on the camera.

Daniela waits as her camera warms up. As she is waiting, she chooses to play a quick game of solitare. She assumes it will be a quick game until she gets herself into a jam. Daniela plays around with the deck before closing the window before she could get upset. The computer dings at her as she checks on the status of her camera. It shows that it is ready to be used. Daniela smiles at her reflection before moving a strand that somehow got loose from her bun. After three failed attempts, Daniela just scoffs at herself before pressing the record button on her camera.

Hello guys, gals and everyone who is watching this on the worldwide web. Today on the Danni Show, I thought it would be pertinent for me to do a reaction video to what my opponents have said about our match for Blaze of Glory. I promise to give my honest opinion on certain things they say while sharing my own thoughts on the match. So let's get started.

Daniela opens up her web browser while glancing down at her live stream chat room getting active. She says hello some of the new faces into her livestream as she pulls up the Sin City Wrestling website. She scrolls around looking at the amazing graphics before pulling up the already aired promotional videos for the Trenton Tigers vs Bella Madison and Malachi. Daniela skips over her own video and over Brandon's video as well.

Alright peeps, it looks like the first video for me to react too will be Malachi's.

She presses play on his video and listens to him speak. She pauses the video about fifteen minutes in before looking over into her camera.

Someone needs to check this guy for damaged brain cells or something. Does he really expect anyone to believe that he will able to lift Brandon with ease? Who in their right mind is going to believe a word that escapes his lungs? Everything he has said is straight up garbage. Did he take the Barnharts cues or something? Listen Malachi, Brandon and I have been doing this tag team thing for a long time now. Probably for about the last ten years, and we have seen it all. You are no different. How many times have you and Bella competed in a tag team match here in SCW? Oh, that's right. It was one time and it was against a team that wasn't even a team at all. That's alot to brag about huh. You think one win automatically makes you number one contenders or something. Think again buster. It takes a lot more than just one win. It takes beating a quality team like Brandon and myself. Personally, I don't see that happening due to your ginormous ego and how unfocused you are on the task at hand.

Your entire video is showing the world at how delusional you are when opening your gator. You will be singing a different tune when Brandon hits you with a straight punch. Just one punch will shatter every bone in your face. Now that's pure power and Brandon has that in spades. You are correct about one thing though Malachi. We are high school chums. If you really think about it, we have been a team since our high school days which doesn't spell a win for you.

You and Bella may have excellent chemistry outside the ring. You may know each other but let's be real for a minute. You both are taking this match because neither of you could handle being on your own. I tried wrestling on my own and found out that I didn't like it at all. I like being in a team. I love everything about being a team player. Brandon and I don't even need to speak to know how we are thinking. Brandon knows that I don't have a lot of power but knows that not many people can beat me in a foot race. I really hope you start to take us seriously Malachi. Especially Brandon, or you might regret it.

The chat is going crazy as Daniela takes time to answer each individual. She switches her gaze back to the website and scrolls down toward Bella's promotional video. She presses play and gives it a quick listen. She stops midway through video and shakes her head.

Bella Madison seems to be just like her fiance. I've already admitted that I underestimated you but don't go bashing my team name. The Trenton Tigers is a high school team which Brandon, my twin brother and I proudly represented during our high school days. We still represent our alma mater to this day. Before you go and bash something, maybe do some research first. Second of all, don't go getting a big head because you finally got a win. Let's get one thing clear, Climax Control was one night where you got extremely lucky. However you are entering an entirely new game come Blaze of Glory. You see this is a tag team match and you lost your last tag match. So explain to me how this is any different.

You know, I am getting tired of bringing up The Barnharts but they are the only examples I have. They are a married couple outside of the ring. However, they didn't have the team chemistry when they faced us. That's the same thing you and Malachi will be contending with this Sunday. Again, you are looking too far ahead and not realizing the moment right in front of you. That's what you did against Candy and it cost you the match. I feel that history is just going to repeat itself again. This time around it's going to be us who ploy right through the both of you.

You see Brandon and I are solely focused on this match. We know the rewards for the winner but we aren't focusing on it. We are focusing on the two of you. We have multiple strategies in place for the match itself. Brandon is going to school you big time Malachi and I'm going to teach little miss Bella a little thing about respect.

Daniela finishes both promotional videos before closing the webpage. She looks back at her camera. Her eyes move down toward the chat and answers a couple questions.

So what are my thoughts about this match? My thoughts are really simple. The Tigers are going to maul our way through the competition. The Tigers are going to prove that experience does matter in matches like this. The Tigers are hungry for gold and nobody is going to get in our way. Malachi and Bella Madison will be the next victims. In case you two hadn't caught onto it. This Sunday is CLOBBERING TIME.

 

Going grocery shopping

Life in Vegas hasn't been a bed of roses for Brandon Sludge. Brandon enjoys life in the outdoors. He also misses his lovely wife Zelda Sludge. Zelda has chosen stay home in Trenton, Florida due to her just given birth to their first born child. Brandon was all smiles when his daughter was born but has yet to hold her in his arms. Brandon was tired of sitting in his hotel room as he decided to venture out into the world. He also was running low on rations so he decided to head for the grocery store to pick up some supplies. As he is walking out to his car, he decides to call up his wife on his cell phone.

"Hey baby," Zelda speaks into the receiver after the first ring. She was a little due to their daughter not sleeping well at night. "Hey honey bun," replies Brandon. "How are you?" he asks her. "I'm tired," she answers bluntly. Brandon was feeling bad as he got behind the driver's seat of his vehicle. "I'm sorry that I had to leave you in your time of need," he says softly. "Don't you dare mister. I know what I signed up for when I married you. You and Daniela have a chance to get the team off the ground. I'm so very proud of you," she tells him which made his heart skip a beat.

"Are you about to drive?" she asks him. "Yeah, I need to pick up some supplies," he answers. "Okay. You know how I am about driving while being on the phone," she says as he nods. "I just wanted to chat with you. I love you baby," he says as she replies "I love you." Brandon hangs up the phone as he cranks the engine and puts the car into reverse. He backs out of the parking space and heads for the closest grocery. The road itself was pretty quiet as he was enjoying the light traffic on the strip of Las Vegas.

Twenty minutes later, Brandon was walking into the grocery store. His eyes were opened wide when he notices how bare the shelves were inside. He picks up a basket and proceeds to walk around the store. Employees of the store are busy trying to stock the shelves as he is putting a few boxes of granola bars into his basket. He also picked up a few bottles of water before moving towards the meat department. He was shocked at how much was gone as he picked up a few packages of sandwich meats and some precooked bacon.

"Good grief," he blurts out as an employee walks up to him. "I'm sorry sir," the employee says softly as Brandon just pats him on the back. "I feel bad for you guys. You have to be out here with the crazies," he offers the employee some encouragement. The employee returns back to work with a smile on his face as he moves toward the checkout. Before he can make it there, he runs into his best friend Vector. "Vector, what in the world are you doing here?" asks Brandon.

"Hiya Brandon. I'm just out getting a few things for Carolyn and myself. Why are you out here?" Vector answers with a question of his own. "Doing the same thing. Daniela is resting in her hotel room and I had to get out of mine," answers Brandon. "That's interesting. Carolyn called me and said that she would be a little late for our date," says Vector as the two share a laugh. "So are you ready to take Malachi on," wonders Vector. "I believe that he is walking into a situation that he can't talk his way out of it," says Brandon as Vector agrees with him.

As the two men are carrying on their conversation, they each walk through the same checkout line. Brandon pays the cashier before walking out the store. Vector is right behind him as the two continue to conversate. Brandon shakes his friend's hand before getting back inside his vehicle. He turns on the vehicle and heads back for the hotel. He returns to his parking spot and cuts the engine off. He sits behind the wheel for a little while looking straight ahead.

Daniela and I are fortunate to have this opportunity to earn a shot at the mixed tag team championships. Of course, we have to get passed the plump chicken in Malachi and the stuffed mushroom in Bella Madison. Am I nervous about these two? Not really, Malachi hasn't done much since joining the company besides fighting his own flesh and blood. Why would I be scared of a plump chicken? I'd tear his legs off and dip them in sauce. Bella will be more concerned about Daniela who will be seeking a chance to avenge her loss.

The Trenton Tigers are going to make these two work for their victory. We aren't going to go down without a fight. I know. Malachi is going to make a comment about my look and size. Like I haven't heard them all before and let me tell ya. It's getting pretty freaking old. Everyone thinks that I'm just a fat man but what they don't see is someone who is extremely intelligent. They judge me but when they meet me inside that ring. They start singing a different tune. Especially when I start chucking them around like puny sausage links.

That's what Malachi is going to find out come Blaze of Glory. Daniela and I have been teaming for a long time. We know each other. She is the speed and I am the power. Together we work like a well oiled machine. Don't believe me. Just go watch what we did to The Barnharts. We showed them the meaning of true teamwork and we plan on doing it again. Malachi and Bella you will be cooked.

 

Undefeated. That's what I keep telling myself everytime I step inside this ring. It's one of the toughest parts of this game. How does one remain undefeated in singles competition? That's the question you must ask yourself. Is it based on your own talent and merit? Is it based on how unprepared your opponent when they enter the ring?

These words ring through the mind of Daniela V. Rodgers as she stands in front of the mirror near the back of the GO Gym that Sin City Wrestling has relocated to during this world crisis that has come upon them. The entire company will be based in Las Vegas for the foreseeable future. Daniela has taken advantage of this relocation as she has put in at least five hours of work each day. She is just about enter her fifth hour when her advocate and most trusted agent Cheryl Hastings steps up behind her.

"Are you prepared for Bella Madison?" asks Cheryl as she hands a puffy white towel to Daniela. Daniela polietly takes the towel into her right hand and wraps it around her neck. She takes one more look into the mirror before turning away and moving towards the incline bench press station. She takes a seat on the bench and looks up at Cheryl.

"I have done a lot of research on Bella Madison. She is fast I'll give her that but her entire approach to a wrestling contest is like watching a cheetah in the wild. She has no clear direction in what she really wants to do inside the ring. She has such skill for flying that she tends to fly around too much. Her attitude is the biggest knock to her abilities," Daniela provides an answer as Cheryl steps behind the bench and prepares to spot her friend and client.
Daniela lies down on the bench press, wraps her hands around the empty bar and lifts it up off the rack. She brings it down to her chest then lifts it up lefting out a long string of breath. Cheryl watches as she continues those movements. "You didn't quite answer the question Dani," mentions Cheryl. Daniela racks the bar and looks up at her.

"I thought I did give you an answer. Of course, I am ready for Bella Madison. I don't know how prepared she is against me but I'm going to enter this contest being overly prepared. I want to prove that my lone victory over Amanda Cortez wasn't fluke. I'm sure that's what everyone is thinking. Also, Brandon and I could use the momentum heading into Blaze of Glory. This is the kind of challenge we have been craving," explains Daniela as Cheryl nods her head.
Daniela finishes up her set on the incline press before moving over to the blurpee area. She does a few sets of them before taking a seat on a wooden bench near the far end of the gym. "That was a great workout. I wonder if Brandon wants to meet up in the Hotel Cafe," she murmurs to herself as Cheryl makes her way over towards her. Cheryl hands Daniela her cell phone before taking a seat next to her. Daniela graciously takes the device back into her grasp before scrolling through the windows. She finds her facebook app and opens it up. She scans through her newsfeed before holding the up towards her face.

She turns on her live feed.

Hey guys,

I know it's strange seeing me record from a different location then my home gym in Trenton, Florida but thanks to Henry Saxton and Mark Ward. I'm currently living in Las Vegas and using this amazing facility to keep myself in top fighting shape. I'm going to need to be in shape for this week I am taking on the incredible Bella Madison. She has wowed the Sin City Wrestling Faithful with her remarkable tenacity and her amazing skills that she has displayed here thus far. She hasn't been able to string enough wins to make herself a top contender for any championship. I don't have much room to talk since I've only had one singles match since moving up to the main roster.

I know this Sunday is going to be a big test because this match as a lot riding on it. A victory over Bella Madison will give Brandon and I some much needed momentum leading into Blaze of Glory. I'm anticipating a very game Bella. I'm expecting her to come into this match up with guns blazing and hoping that a few bullets will land in the right spot for me to go down. That's going to be downfall. Her major flaw thus far in her career is that she doesn't take time to think about all scenarios. I'm just as fast as she is but I'm also known for being an incredible ground game player. Her last time out was a hard loss to the Bombshell Roulette Champion.

Bella put on a great performance but sometimes that isn't going to win a match. You need to a perfect performance. I'm not going to say that I'm perfect by any means but when I'm in that ring. I strive to put on the best performance that I can possibly muster. I always give one hundred ten percent and that doesn't change. The Throwback Princess is going to show the world that I haven't forgotten my roots. I will battle. I will fight. I will prove that I'm the one who will walk out with the victory. Bella Madison will be a great test. Unfortunately for her, she will be one test that I will pass with flying colors.

Daniela stops recording as Brandon's picture pops up onto her phone. Daniela answers. "Hey Brandon," she says quietly as she stands up to her feet. "Hey Squirty, you coming for the turkey," he replies as Daniela looks back at Cheryl. Both ladies roll their eyes while leaving the gym side by side.

 

Back on the grind (Before January 3, 2020)

The last time Daniela had competed in a wrestling contest was against Mercedes Vargas and Amanda Cortez. Her manager and friend Cheryl Hastings has been hard at work trying to negotiate with Mark Ward on a new deal for Daniela. The ink was barely dry when they had shuck hands and left with both parties happy. Daniela has been working hard on her fundamentals while also trying to work on her strength. Daniela was sitting on her front porch, sipping on some sweet tea when Cheryl pulls into the yard.

Daniela smiles as Cheryl steps out of her car. “What’s the word Cheryl?” Cheryl looks at her client and gives her a quick head nod. “I got you a new contract but there is a small catch,” answers Cheryl. “What’s the catch?” questions Daniela. “You need to find a tag partner,” says Cheryl. Daniela scrunches her face up before looking at Cheryl. “I know who to ask,” she says with a grin. Cheryl looks at her with a look of curious. “Are you going to tell me?” She asks. “I’d have to talk to him first before I can give you a definite answer,” replies Daniela as she looks up at the clouds.

# Such A Beautiful Day (present day)

It’s a beautiful sunny day in Trenton, Florida as the small town is full of life. The temperature itself is rather comfortable as Daniela can be seen just walking down the sidewalk heading towards the Gilchrist County Library. She is all smiles while waving at several vehicles driving past her. In her right hand is a romance novel while in her left hand is a 20 ounce can of Mountain Dew. “What a gorgeous day,” she thinks to herself while taking a small sip of her soda.

As Daniela is moving at a normal rate, her best friend Sandra is standing just a few from the front sidewalk. A few cars are sitting in the gravel style parking lot. Daniela has been anticipating this meeting ever since she and Sandra have started reading the same book. She couldn’t wait to discuss what she has read thus far. Sandra, growing impatient, pulls out her phone to give Daniela a call. The phone rings twice before Daniela presses a button on her Bluetooth earpiece that has been sitting in her right ear since she started walking. “Hello,” she answers with a happy tone. “What’s taking you so long?” asks Sandra. “I’m walking from my house,” answers Daniela. Sandra smacks herself on the forehead while trying not to let out a string of curse words toward her friend. “Why are you walking? Your house is at least five blocks from the library,” questions Sandra. “Why not walk? It’s a beautiful day and it would be pointless to waste it driving,” replies Daniela as Sandra mumbles a little under her breath.

The phone conversation lasts for a few minutes until Sandra gets fed up and hung up on Daniela. Dani just shrugs her shoulders and continues to walk towards the library. She is just about to pass the First Baptist Church when a voice calls out to her. “Hey Dani,” the voice rings out as Daniela doesn’t notice at first. “Dani,” the voice calls out again as Daniela starts looking around to notice her surroundings. “Dang Dani,” says the voice as Daniela whips her head around to see Zelda Sludge coming towards her. “Zelda!!!” exclaims Daniela as she goes running towards her friend. Zelda wraps her arms around Daniela’s waist as they hold each other for exactly three seconds before pulling apart and looking at each other. “Oh my goodness Zelda, I’m so happy to see you out and about,” says Daniela as Zelda smiles at her caring friend. “I didn’t have much of a choice. Brandon has some friends over and I didn’t want to get in the way,” she responds as Daniela just nods in unison. Daniela glances down at Zelda’s belly and places a hand on top of Zelda’s hand. “How far along are you now?” asks Daniela. “I’m about fifteen weeks now,” answers a very grateful Zelda. Daniela was so happy for her tag partner and his wife. She knew they had been trying to get pregnant for at least three years but nothing seemed to have worked. “Is Brandon getting ready for Sunday?” she wonders. “I sure hope so since it’s all he can talk about,” answers Zelda. “Are you ready for Sunday?” Zelda asks Daniela. Daniela nods her head while pulling out her phone. “I think so. It’s going to be interesting since this will be the first time I won’t be teaming with my twin brother. I’m ready to get back into the ring and continuing showing why I am the future of the SCW Bombshell division,” answers Daniela. Zelda smiles as she looks down at Apple Watch sitting on her left wrist. “I should be getting back home before Brandon burns down the house,” says Zelda as she hugs Daniela. Daniela hugs back while quietly responding to her friend.  

Daniela waits for a few minutes as she watches Zelda pull out of the church’s parking lot and heading west. She just closes her eyes while silently praying for her friend’s pregnancy.

After saying the quick prayer, Daniela steps off the sidewalk and lifts her phone up to her face. She presses the camera app on the second screen of her phone. She takes a deep breath before swiping towards the video part of her camera. She takes another long breath before pressing the record button.

>  Hello Sin City Wrestling Nation, this is the “Throwback Princess” coming at you live from my hometown of Trenton, Florida. I know it’s been a while since you last saw me on any kind of programming and I sincerely apologize for that long absence. I promise not to take that long of a vacation again. Before I dive head first into dissecting the arrogance that The Barnharts have left during their promotional videos. I would like to thank Mark Ward for allowing me to return. You see without him putting faith in me then I would be still in SCU floundering beneath all the incredible talents on the roster.

> Now with that out of the way, let’s get started on this upcoming mixed tag team match. Bea and Bill Barnhart look to make their tag team debut against the debuting team of Brandon Sludge and myself. Collectively we are known as the Trenton Tigers. I know everyone is wondering why are we called that of all names. That’s because it represents our high school. You see the both of us graduated from Trenton High School where their mascot are Tigers so it’s only necessary we call ourselves the same as a tribute to our high school.

> Before I turn my attention towards Bea, let me drop some truth bombs on the two of you. First off, I am a very successful tag team wrestler. I have teamed with my twin brother for years until now. I’m sure Brandon and I are going to have growing pains as a tag team. That’s true about any new tag team. However, we will prove that our skills are nothing you should take lightly. I did catch your match last week Bea. You were impressive but I saw a lot of flaws in your game. First off, you get very cocky when you string multiple moves together and that almost cost you. Second, you rely too much on one particular skill and eventually that will lead to your downfall. Take me for example, I can get very technical with my approach but I have learned that if you can adapt to how the match is going then you can catch your opponent napping. That’s what I did when I faced Amanda Cortez in my debut. Everyone thought I would fall because she had been a former champion but I proved everyone wrong. That’s what I do best. I outperform my opponents. I give way over one hundred percent. This match is going to be no different. Now, I’m not going to take you for granted. I know you are highly gifted but your strength level isn’t on my level. I really hope you don’t think having a home field advantage is going to make a difference. Brandon and I will enjoy nothing more than to play spoiler. We will break you both down and make you our personal chew toys.

> If you two want to overlook us then go for it. Because we will love nothing more than to make you both look foolish. Now I’ll let Brandon talk about Bill but as for you Bea. You are going to find out why Mark is so high on me. I don’t back down from anyone and I’m not intimidated either. So get ready Bea because it’s time to throwback the pain and SET YOUR DVR.

Daniela puts two fingers up before stopping the recording.

 

Trinity is sitting inside her London hotel room with her eyes glued to the mirror. She was really psyching herself up for this upcoming championship match. She wanted to make this one count.

~ Trinity ~
Tick tock, tick tock, do you hear that Samantha Marlowe? That is the time counting down on your championship reign. You have held the one championship I've been craving for ever since I signed with this company several years ago. Since then, I have left broken bodies behind me on my quest towards this moment. My last match didn't go as planned but it wasn't my endgame. This right here is my endgame.

Trinity smirks while balling up her fist.

~ Trinity ~
The last time you faced off against me. We fought in a backstage brawl. I'm sure you are going to gloat about how you beat me. Correction, you got lucky. Anyone can be beat in a backstage brawl. I'm fairly certain that you will come into this match thinking you are already victorious. Well, think again. You have not won. You will not win because I'm going to slaughter you. I'm going to turn your entire life upside down.

Your reign will come to an abrupt end and it will be oh so glorious. I am not afraid to kick your head off. I am looking forward to tying your ass into every possible knot that I can fathom. You say that you can adapt to the match. That's admirable but there is one thing you haven't been able to do. That is adapt to me. Sierra Williams got lucky because I wasn't focused on her. She knew my main focus is destroying you. I will take that belt from you.

Trinity holds her fist out in front of her face. She continues to smirk.

~ Trinity ~
I told the world 2019 was going to the year of The Dragon and thus far I have stuck to that logic. No one is going to stop me from becoming a champion. Sam Marlowe will find out how serious I am when her teeth are covering the floor and her blood has stained the canvas. You have no more places to run. You have no place to hide. In time, you will burn from the fire that burns inside me. This is my moment and I will not let it slip through my fingers.

The Dragon soars in London. Your life will flash. Your reign will end. That is the fact and there is nothing you can do to stop it. So Sam, bring every thing you got because it won't be enough. London Brawling 2 will be my night. It's time to ENTER THE DRAGON.

Trinity punches the mirror in front of her as the glass shatters. Small sprinkles of blood drip as the scene fades.
