Beginning of April
Los Angeles, California
Rose Corp

SCW was in the midst of its huge Greece tour. This was the first time that the company had really gone on tour since the pandemic had begun. So this in itself was a huge deal. It meant that things were getting back to normalcy and that things were going in the right direction. However for Crystal Zdunich things just felt to be a tad off. She had worked her ass off in trying to win the gauntlet match at Blaze of Glory so she could get her future championship match. She knew what was at stake. With the Blast From The Past establishing the next set of challengers for both World Championships she knew that her gauntlet match would name the future challenger for the Internet Championship. This was what she had wanted and it really wasn’t for the title at all. It was because of who had held that title. Andrea Hernandez was the woman that she had desperately wanted to fight. It was one of the women that she had on her hit list. Scratching Vargas off of the list with her gauntlet win was one thing but it wouldn’t bring the satisfaction that being in the ring with Andrea would bring. Everything was going according to plan.

She had exactly what she had wanted. The stars were perfectly aligned. At Into The Void she would be on a collision course with Andrea Hernandez. After their bitter rivalry and the way that Andrea had insulted her wife Seleana with the continuous mocking it was going to feel good to finally put that woman in her place. Crystal was overly excited that she was getting everything she wanted. The only thing that was left was to wait until Into The Void so she can finally correct Andrea’s attitude once and for all.

A few days had passed since Blast From The Past. Crystal was sitting in her office at Rose Corp. She opened up her cell phone as she started typing away on her keyboard. As she was doing so it wasn’t that long until a college aged African American walked into the room. She offered a slight grin as she looked over at Crystal.

“Hello Miss Hilton can I get you anything?!”

Crystal turned her nose up at the woman as she shook her head in disgust.

“Do I know you?! I haven’t really seen you before… Obviously you must be new here… Also for the love of God call me Mrs. Zdunich… I hate the name HILTON with a passion!”

The woman just smiled as she shrugged her shoulders in return.

“Oh… I don’t believe I introduced myself to you. My name is Emily Wi……Well my name isn’t really important. I am an intern here. I am studying drama at UCLA. Miss Chloe brought me on… Anyway do you want a latte or maybe a glass of San Pellogrino water?!”

Crystal keeps her eyes on the woman as she just shakes her head in disgust.

“No, I am fine but thank you very much. I just wished that Chloe would tell me when she is making moves that involve personnel at the company. It doesn’t matter to be honest. Just go do whatever, I was actually in the middle of setting up my tweets for the day…”

Emily opens her eyes in amazement as she looks back at Crystal.

“Social media?! I love social media! I am actually a bit of an influencer. I have a massive following and I could actually help your account in all of the best ways. Miss Chloe actually wanted me to keep an eye on you, and maybe assist if you needed some h…”

Crystal quickly cuts the woman off as she stares blankly into her eyes.

“I don’t need fucking help with my social media account! I think I am doing a fine job on my own. Why don’t you go run along and make yourself useful somewhere else. Better yet you can go serve Melissa at the front desk. Lord knows that girl can use some help. She sits on the board of directors but insists on being a receptionist. I don’t understand people at times…”

Emily just shrugs her shoulders as she looks deeper into Crystal’s eyes.

“There’s nothing wrong with people being humble. Everybody can learn a taste of humility…”

Crystal on the other hand just ignores her as she goes about her tweeting business. She sends a tweet out and smiles as she sits there in anticipation with a smile on her lips. Emily just stands there dumbfounded as she looks back at Crystal.

“What is so funny Miss H… I mean Mrs. Zdunich. What did you write?!”

“I just wrote that I am excited to eventually face Andrea and I am happy to finally get my championship match against her…”

Emily is taken back as she stands there sighing.

“Wait… Did you take a moment to at least clarify what you were saying and completely communicate what you were trying to convey to your audience?!”

Crystal opens her eyes in amazement.

“What do you mean, what are you on about?!”

“As a dramatic arts student they taught us that whenever you go about acting or trying to do anything in theater or even on television that you want the audience to fully believe in what you are saying. This is something that I thought you of all people would know. After all you do own your own movie studio and are one of the biggest actresses in the world so it should be common sense. If you don't, your words might be misinterpreted and…”

Crystal is quick to cut her off as she shakes her head in disgust.

“Nobody misinterprets me… I am Crystal fucking Zdunich, and that alone should be enought o suffice….”

There is a smile emerging from Crystal but suddenly that smile turns into a frown as the tweet she sent out gets retweeted and replied to by Mark Ward. Crystal is taken back as she begins to scream out at the top of her lungs.

“Are you fucking kidding me?!”

“What’s wrong Mrs. Zdunich?!”

Crystal shrugs her shoulders as she looks back at the intern.

“It’s Hot Stuff… For some reason he assumes that I want the World Championship… And now people are liking his tweets. He has a massive following that are painting me in a bad light about how I am a title whore or obsessed with forcing my way into the main event for a World Bombshell Match. I didn’t even say I wanted that match! From the get go all I ever wanted was Andrea Hernandez. That was the main point I made going back to the gauntlet match. After all the stuff she said about Seleana that is who I have my eyes on. The world title means nothing compared to me trying to defend my wife… Why can’t people see that?!”

Emily shrugs her shoulders.

“Because your past will always catch up to you. Nobody will ever take you seriously, even if you were being completely honest and sincere people will only see how you betrayed your wife all of those years ago. On top of that you WERE title crazy and it’s the norm. Recovery in itself is never easy… You can work for a long time trying to establish something but the moment you make one simple mistake people will forget any progress you made…”

Emily walks over to Crystal and places her arm around her.

“I know it sounds weird but I honestly think I can help you with your Social Media account. I can put you in a positive light. I might be going to school for Dramatic Arts but branding has always been my focus. I guess since being raised by my grandparents I felt it was always better to see others in the distance…My mother wasn’t there for me… She should have been but I honestly don’t hold it against her…”

Crystal seems taken back.

“Wow… That sucks… Was your mother a drug addict or even an alcoholic because if that’s the case I can relate…”

Emily shakes her head.

“No… My mother was basically busy raising her brother’s kid. I rather not get into it. So my Great GrandParents had to raise me. All I could do was admire my mother from afar. She is a good one and definitely a woman who would do anything for family…”

Crystal nods her head.

“It’s always cool to have a good family member… I remember when I was doing my own shit and I had an amazing sister in law that helped me out. Jenny is my forever sister and regardless if Todd and I are married. I will always acknowledge her as family. She basically was Brittany’s mother when I was in wrestling school and other stuff…”

Emily nods in agreement.

“Yeah… Anyway I will get going. Like I said if you really need me I will help you with your Twitter presence. Don’t let things get to you… It’s not as bad as they seem, and don’t rush into things…”

Crystal could only look at her phone. It was annoying seeing all of the negative tweets she was getting in return but maybe this Emily girl was right. Maybe she could use the help. It would be something to consider…




One Week Later
Las Vegas, Nevada
Golden Ring Casino

SCW had just started their huge Greece tour. Things were looking up and as most of the SCW roster had traveled across seas to one of the most beautiful beach tours that the company has ever seen, Crystal Zdunich decided to stay back in the states. It was a Sunday Night and it marked the very first Climax Control in Greece. Crystal was nowhere overseas. She instead was working in the Golden Ring Casino. She was running around like a mad woman as she brought drinks and food to various different booths and tables. It definitely was a hectic night as business was booming. As she was waiting tables she caught the attention of one Daniel Morgan. He crossed his arms as he walked over to where she was standing.

“Do you mind if I have a chat with you?!”

Crystal didn’t know what to say as she looked back at her boss.

“Yes Daniel, what’s going on?!”

Daniel nods his head as a grin escapes his lips.

“I appreciate all of your hard work. It’s quite unremarkable how much it means to see you waiting tables again. You always end up making the casino so much money when you help out. However I must question why you are even here. You should be over there in Greece with the love of your life. SCW has been waiting for a long time for travel restrictions to go down and they decide to tour in a beautiful country with so many beaches. Don’t you want to be part of that?! Staying here waiting tables isn’t what you should be doing…”

Crystal shakes her head.

“It’s whatever… You think I want to go over there?! The country already made it known how they felt about me. I was eager to be in the ring with Andrea and Mark acted like I was trying to force my way into some World title match. Is that the only way that they think about me?! I feel like I am not getting my rightful respect. I deserve better and if all you can do is lash out at one of your top talents why should I care or commit into traveling halfway across the word to get mocked by the owner?! It’s one thing for Christian to do it towards me but at least I know he has a respect for me. If he didn’t he wouldn’t have inducted me into the hall of fame. Mark on the other hand really surprised me and it hurts considering I was his personal assistant. Right after that gig I came here to work for you and it has been amazing ever since…”

Daniel nods his head.

“Don’t let it get to you… I would honestly let it go. Just focus on getting into the ring with Andrea and being prepared to take the Internet Championship from her…”

“I am prepared Daniel! As soon as she beat Seleana and I won my match I knew damn well what was at stake. I can’t wait to cross her off of my list and it is going to feel so good to do so…”

“Just train up and make sure you are ready to do whatever it takes to bring the title home…”

Crystal cuts him off.

“It’s not about the title… It’s about Andrea… As long as I can get my hands on her that is all that matters in the end…”

Crystal gives her a nod focused grin but as she does so something gets her attention. The customers are all cheering as they are watching Climax Control on the television screens. Crystal shakes her head in disgust as she stands in front of the television and begins to scream at the top of her lungs. On the television Masque has her mandible claw locked tightly on Andrea. Everybody in the casino is shocked but Crystal begins to yell.

“Damn it Andrea!!! You better fight her… You better show her you are better than her… For the love of God you better pull through and beat the unholy hell out of that Bitch! You are the most hated of the year! You have the crazy winning streak! Just win!!!”

Crystal yells as she watches as there are no ropes in sight. She watches Andrea slowly succumb until she slowly passes out. The referee calls it and even the commentators are silent. The bar area at the casino seems to be silent except for one Crystal Zdunich. She stands up and immediately chucks a plate of food and glass at the television screen. The tv cracks on the impact as both the plate and glass shatter. Crystal stands up as she bangs on the bar.

“You have to be FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!!! How could she lose to that Bitch?! It was supposed to be my match against Andrea!!! Now this Bitch ruined it!!!!”

Daniel looks at Crystal as he sighs at her.

“I told you that you should have been in Greece! Yet here you are throwing a temper tantrum because things didn’t go the way you wanted. Now you are going to stand here and break plates and our big television?! You know what Crystal I am going to suspend you! I am also going to dock your pay to cover for the damages. Go home and get out of my sight. No being a waitress, no being a special events coordinator, no anything until I feel you have learned your lesson…”

Crystal keeps her eyes locked on Daniel.

“Look, I just lost my cool… I am sure we can fix this somehow…”

“Charlotte and Mackenzie! Remove Crystal off of the property!”

With that both of the English women walk over to where Crystal is. Despite being close friends they grab Crystal and they begin to drag her out of the casino. They both seem apologetic but business is business. Crystal is thrown out of the building. She could only sit on the street dumbfounded and questioned everything that just happened.


Few Weeks Later
Rose Corp
Los Angeles, California

Crystal could be seen facing around her movie studio. Her eyes locked on her phone as she took out her Twitter fingers. Emily walks into the room and sighs as she looks right at Crystal.

“Crystal what’s going on now?! Shouldn’t you be in Greece… It’s been a while and I know you are one of the biggest stars in the company. I would have expected that one of SCW’s most successful bombshells would go about building her future title match to make it important…”

Crystal cuts her off as she looks daggers at Emily.

“You think I give a shit about SCW right now Emily?! It’s honestly all bullshit. I am starting to feel like nobody really respects me anymore. It’s a feeling that I haven’t been able to shake off since I won the gauntlet match. It’s crazy how things have changed over the past couple of weeks. I WANTED to face Andrea but now I have to deal with this Masque Bitch. Mikah can’t commit to receiving her championship match so now things are left up in the air. MY wife wins a match that is worth something special and I call Christian out on that predictable booking and now they want to punish Seleana for opening my mouth?!”

Emily shrugs her shoulders in return.

“To be honest you shouldn’t have said anything. Just let Seleana get surprised with whatever was coming her way. You didn’t have to interject. It didn’t matter because Seleana did win anyway but can’t you see that sometimes your emotions and your acting before thinking things through can cause you to get into so much trouble?! Maybe you should just breathe a bit. Let things play out and see where the chips land…”

Crystal yells as she cuts her right off.

“Bullshit… I tried that approach and I did exactly what everybody told me to do. I went to Greece and I gave it a chance. I promised that I would have words for Masque and it didn’t even air on television. What I did was cut off of the program and appeared to be aired a few days after the event. I see how SCW feels about me facing Masque… I am sure everybody has this foregone conclusion that I am going to lose to Masque…. They just need for things to play out so it can actually happen…”

Emily tries to reason with her.

“Crystal listen…”

“Why should I listen?! People still think I am Seleana’s estranged wife. So they can’t ever appreciate the relationship I have with her. Every Time somebody has a match with her they jump on her how they feel I bring her down or the same old shit. Whenever anything is brought up about me it’s always negative… I don’t get what I have to do….”

Emily just sighs.

“Just keep pushing… That’s all I can say…”

Crystal just shakes her head.

“Keep pushing?! I did exactly that… The only time SCW can possibly ever remember about me is to just put me in a random tag team match. That’s the only time I was even used during this entire cycle leading up to the Super Card. I expected much more seeing as I am a contender for one of their championships. I know people wonder why I choose to fight in so many different companies but this is the main reason. I am forgotten…”

“Crystal…”

Before Emily could say anything else the COO for Rose Corp Chloe Martin walks into the room. Her heels bang steadily against the floor as she looks daggers at Crystal.

“Care to explain what this was all about?!”

Chloe slides a tablet in front of Crystal. She has screenshots of Crystal replying to Christian about the Seleana and Tempest match. Chloe crosses her arms as she looks right at the Latina.

“What was the point?!”

Crystal just looks away.

“I was trying to figure out what was going on…”

Chloe talks louder.

“Well what you were trying to do only made you look worse. Everything you have done has made you look worse since Blaze of Glory. I know you are better than that so I really don’t understand you. If it’s not one thing it's definitely another. First it was getting into it with Mark Ward, then it’s getting suspended from GRC, then it’s almost tweeting your wife out of a championship match, and trying to make things about you!”

“I am not trying to do that… It’s just what ended up happening. I can’t explain why things happened the way that they did. It just went that way…”

“On top of that you have a big match ahead of you… A chance to become Internet Champion and you haven’t done anything towards promoting that goal…”

Crystal is quiet as she finally replies back.

“...I would but nobody even feels I can win… So if they feel like I don’t have a chance why should I?!”

Chloe is taken back as she looks at her boss and friend.

“Really… You care how others feel about you?! I guess this is worse than what I thought… I am going to be completely honest with you. These two months you have been a nightmare to deal with on social media. You are portraying bad publicity towards the company and it’s definitely a Public Relations nightmare. I have an idea but you really need to trust me…”

Crystal raises her eyes.

“And what idea is that exactly?!”

“I was thinking that you could Emily run your social media accounts for a while. She has a good head on her shoulders and will put a positive spin to your life…”

“Hold on, you want this girl to take control of my TWITTER account, what makes you think I even need that!”

“It sounds weird I can imagine but it’s not necessarily a bad thing. A lot of famous personalities have somebody that moderates their account. She will be handling things but you won’t be disappointed with anything she does. Just judging from your interactions these past few weeks I have a great feeling that the two of you are going to get along just fine…”

Crystal looks at the girl before nodding her head in agreement.

“Chloe is putting a lot of trust in you so hopefully you won’t let me down. Just make sure my account is running smoothly. This will give me the proper chance to focus on what is important…”

The girl chuckles as she looks right at Crystal.

“Don’t worry it is in good hands I promise! There was something else that Chloe did want to talk to you about especially when it comes to your image…”

Chloe nods her head with a wicked grin as she winks at Crystal.

“Exactly. I think it would definitely be in your best interest if Seleana starts to manage you. You can really showcase that you two have an amazing marriage and that can sort of downplay everybody thinking that you are an estranged wife. Everything is all about perception Christina, and as long as we stay on top of things your public relations is going to look good. You keep your attention on Masque, and we will do what we do best.”

Crystal just sighs as she looks at both women before she replies back to them.

“Okay… We are going to do things your way. I trust you two… Just please help my career because honestly I don’t know what else to do…”

Crystal heads out of the room leaving Chloe and Emily alone. The two women just stare at one another as Emily looks right into the eyes of the Canadian.

“So do you think she suspects anything yet?!”

Chloe shakes her head.

“I doubt it but just keep doing what you are doing. Don’t give her any reason to suspect anything…”

Emily can only shake her head in return as her eyes are still focused on Crystal who is walking away. She never takes them off of her as she just sighs and looks back at Chloe as Crystal finally walks out of sight.





Hello to all of my blooming roses out there. This is yours truly. The one and only burning rose Crystal Zdunich and it won’t be long until I go out there in Athens and compete against Masque for the right to be the Internet Champion. I am going to be completely honest with all of you. I am upset that I have to fight Masque. When I won the gauntlet at the last Super Card I knew that the end result would be that the winner would challenge the current champion Andrea. In my eyes that is all I really wanted. For those who paid any attention to my checklist Andrea was number four on it. Rightfully so considering all of the shit she has said about my wife. She had talked so much shitt about how she was this big bad monster that was practically unstoppable. As a matter of fact her last loss before she started to win match after match going on this ridiculous streak was against me when she screamed out like a little Bitch in our I Quit match.

I offered her a very teachable moment and it was something I hope she learned an important lesson, but sadly the lesson went over her head because she was content with running her mouth and trying to parade around trying to chase around Roulette Championships and something everybody clearly knows is well beneath her.

It doesn’t matter though, right?! After all, as long as she can take the easy way out and not challenge herself that’s always the fun thing to do. I watched from afar and I started positioning myself to make sure I could be the one to silence her once and for all. When I overcame all of those other bombshells and I was the last one standing. I just knew I was going to get what I wanted. I was going to get Andrea and nothing was going to get in the way of that.

At least I thought it was the clear path to her but what I didn’t expect was for Andrea to crumble under the pressure when she was booked against Masque. It should have been business as usual for Andrea. After all, she was beating people senselessly for the last 19 people that she fought. This was her chance to really define her legacy. However when push came to shove she just didn’t handle her business. She got knocked the fuck out! Once Masque put her hand down the throat of Andrea it was over.

To so many people it was a shocking sight, to many others they were left speechless, but honestly when I looked at the entire situation I was a little disappointed. Am I shocked about the entire thing?! Not really because as great as Andrea thought she was, she honestly wasn’t beating people that were on the scales of a Mikah, a Roxi Johnson, an Alicia Lukas or even a me. She basically coasted her way into a bullshit streak and an accolade of most hated that followed. It was bound to happen and it reminds me of Deontay Wilder during his reign of terror as the WBC Boxing Champion!

It’s like oh my God this guy is so amazing! OMG he is the BRONZE!!!!! BOMBER!!!! He’s knocking people out like nothing! However the very moment he goes up against real competition in Tyson Fury we find out he just wasn’t the champion that he hyped himself up into being. He got humiliated in three straight fights. I don’t want to hear about a draw in the first fight because we all know the real result. He was outmatched and outboxed. It showed that in his little bubble he could seem like a big bad dog but when you actually face competition that is on his level he simply wasn’t good enough.

That’s what happened to Andrea and also add in the fact that she isn’t crying for a rematch or trying to get back into the spotlight again, and has been relegated to simply being the host of Into The Void speaks volumes for how she really feels about things.

Anyway enough about that because life goes on and even though Andrea is who I really wanted to face it seems I now have to fight Masque. As I look at this upcoming match and see as we are on the topic of boxing this entire situation reminds me of a certain movie. I really feel like I am caught right in the middle of Rocky 4. I of course am Rocky Balboa. Andrea played the role of Apollo Creed and she damn sure got decimated by this version of Drago. Masque beat her to the point that Andrea was unresponsive. Masque basically killed Andrea inside of that wrestling ring.

Everybody was speechless and it just further established Masque as being this huge threat. People are all shivering at the mere thought of having to step in the ring with her. I don’t see things in that way though. In my eyes after seeing what she did to Andrea it just inspires me to want to be in the ring with her even more.

People can think whatever they want on how I feel about Andrea, but deep down throughout everything she was a rival that I respected in the ring. Maybe it has to do with the fact our fathers had teamed up in Mexico and there was a connection. Maybe it is the fact that we are both second generation wrestlers and that we both are of Mexican descent. Whatever the case I still valued Andrea as a competitor even though the feeling wasn’t mutual. When she got destroyed I know people could only see how I had lost to Andrea in three straight singles matches.

So if I struggled against Andrea what would happen if I have to step in the ring with Masque?! People are already writing me off. I saw the way that my newfound buddy Kat Jones was trying to warn me about Masque. The conversation between her, Amber, and others is just all of their ways of telling me that “YOU CAN’T WIN!”. I can picture Adrienne from Rocky 4 yelling that at her husband and honestly it played a mind fuck on me.

The only thing that was left was for me to play No Easy Way Out and go for a car ride thinking of everything that led to this moment of me having to step into the ring with Masque. If you add that to the fact of what I had to go through these last couple of weeks I felt disrespected.

I felt like I didn’t even want to come on the Greece Tour. It was clear that I was missing for a huge chunk of it. I didn’t like how Mark assumed I would try to insert myself in some World title hunt. I felt stupid for almost ruining Sel’s right to get a championship opportunity. I just had a lot going through my mind. I wasn’t all there and to the SCW roster I am sorry for not being mature enough to be able to handle things in the right way.

However despite everything that might have been conflicting me there is one thing that is not! That one thing happens to be Masque. You see the more I look at her the more I realize that I am not afraid of her. She might be seven inches taller than me and might have fifteen pounds on me but I just can’t see her as being a threat. After all, in the grand scheme of things you want to know the real reason why I don’t see the same thing that everybody else sees?!

The reason is very simple… It’s because I am Crystal freaking Hilton. In my eyes I am the best bombshell in this company point blank. If I wasn’t I would be the only person to hold the World Bombshell Championship five times. I wouldn’t be in the hall of fame, and I damn sure wouldn’t have won a gauntlet match to be in this match.

This past week I had to hear endless bullshit on stuff to try to put me down. One of them being Amber trying to disrespect me like I wasn’t a good champion. I am tired of the mockery and to prove a point I have to go out there and prove that Masque isn’t unbeatable. She isn’t even that good…

Mediocre at best and as long as I keep my confidence nothing will stop me. Masque, how are you doing?!I don’t believe we have formally met. You should know me by now but if not this is probably where you go on a tangent and tell me how the rapture is coming. You think you are going to transport me anywhere?!

Bitch I have been here for a very long time. So I doubt you will do anything to me. After all, I 've been through some shit here. I have been in the ring with the best of the very best. Throughout everything I am still here. I haven’t left and I still beg to fight a list of who’s who so do you think you can really break that?!

I highly doubt that… On top of that there is something that is scarier than anything that you possess within you and that is how I get when a title is involved. That’s not me hyping that up either, that's everybody else in this company.

I get called a championship whore. I am arrogant for accolades and I go crazy for them. So if everybody else hypes me up in this way what will that say for you?! It will mean it will be business as usual for me.

Masque I have witnessed what you have done since you have been here and it has been impressive. You have been here for a little under or over one hundred days and have found yourself with an amazing record. You are also a champion and on your way to becoming something greater.

That’s just swell but you don’t really go anywhere until you face me. I am not afraid of you. Why should I?! What is it that you are trying to hide?!

I can openly admit that I tend to hide a lot. Being an actress I am always one to try to cover up my real emotions with costumes of change. It can be fake hair, sometimes an arrogant personality, and sometimes trying to wear a costume of change to be accepted. Lots of stuff might be inconsistent about me but everything about trying to force a change is consistent.

It makes up who I am and I can admit it. However if you take all of that unnecessary baggage you also have to accept that as a wrestler I will give every single bit of myself to come through or die trying. That is my story but I want to flip it around and ask you a question.

What is it that you are hiding?!

As much as I seem so wrapped up in Andrea, Andrea, and Andrea… You have your mind on Amber. You are obsessed with her and it’s sickening. On top of that I get it that one of your hands is a prosthetic. I can believe that but wearing gloves on both hands. All of the masks that you wear, the full body suits and doing everything in your power not to show any type of skin.

Hell, even your name isn’t recorded…

Hell there’s no list of achievements…

And there isn’t any background information on you…

That is a lot of hiding and if you have to hide that much about yourself it is never a good thing. As much acting as I have done I know for a fact that I have done some stupid shit that makes me people cringe.

I know my poly relationship has become a topic to harp on…

I know the way I have treated my wife is also something to jump on…

There’s so much that people can jump on me about but guess what?! It’s all right there in the open and even though I really hate when people say stuff that I don’t necessarily like. It’s all right there for your pleasure to do whatever you want.

You want to know why?! Because as much you wish to fire on me I am so used to the shots that I know how to clap back. Also they wouldn’t be out in the open if I didn’t expect somebody to be so predictable and fire at me with it…

It’s a case of the same old shit being said…

You on the other hand are basically nothing. With a lack of everything about you that makes you a ghost. You know what they say about ghosts?! They are easy to see through and I can see right through you. As tough as you might be, you need to understand something.

You have something that I want. The Internet Championship means so much to me. It is a championship that I never lost and it is longing to get back around my waist. The last time I held that title I unified it with the World Championship. It is time to get back that missing piece of my life. It’s time to put it firmly around my waist and I doubt there is anything that you can do to stop me.

There’s no doubt in my mind you are one of the best new bombshells to come to this company but honestly at the end of the day you just aren’t me. You don’t walk in my shoes and I won’t let you best me. It’s time for my career to get back in order and by beating you I can personally silence all of the haters who felt like you were just going to steam roll over me.

Then again I remembered something… There certainly is no Easy Out of This…

However it’s not for me but on the contrary there is no way to hide from taking this asswhooping. What have you honestly done to warrant such a reaction that people should be afraid of you?!

Is it because you managed to beat the Kaiju Rainbow?! Yeah… It would have been more impressive if Rainbow actually gave a damn while she was competing in this company.

Should I take you seriously because you managed to beat Adrienne Beaufort… As amazing as I am sure that sounds, the truth is she is another woman who was in this company for practically no time. Her journey started well before it even began so I can’t even give you credit on that because it’s not impressive.

Other than that you can hold onto your win over Jessie Salco but if we are completely honest everybody manages to beat Salco so that’s not really impressive either. I know you were also in the ring with Chloe. So looking down the list of everybody that you fought the only thing that is truly impressive is that you managed to beat Andrea Hernandez. That is the only thing that is worth noting on your resume or should I say CV.

I am battle tested and the last time I lost a singles match in which I got pinned was against Myra Rivers in 2021. It has been a long time and I am not going to show any signs of dropping the ball now. As far as I see things I should be able to go right through you and I will be champion again.

I know you will be happy to introduce this little rose to the rapture and as cute as all of that sounds, that is when you find yourself being pricked by my thorns.

It all has finally hit me… The real reason why Andrea lost to you wasn’t because you were better than her, but deep in her mind she knew that she didn’t want this smoke because the realization would have set in that I had next and she wasn’t going to get past me. Now I know you must be super confident but don’t get caught waiting for some stupid rapture because as the Burning Rose I am going to set your entire world ablaze. All of your hopes and dreams are going to go up in smoke.

Flame on…

The rapture gets burnt to a crisp and the fire inside of me burns bright and nothing will extinguish my flames. I will be a champion and I will rule over the Internet again.

Lights…

Camera…

Action…

It’s showtime!

Welcome to the curtain call… Take a bow because I am going to roll the credits on you once and for all…

Nothing and I mean nothing will ever stop me from becoming Internet Champion… Mark my words on that…



 

It’s that time again and I promised the entire world that I will answer the rest of the questions that I asked. We already covered the necessary question of who I am but now there is two more questions to focus on and the next question is perhaps the most important one. What am I doing?!

Wow… As an actress one must always what they are doing in any single role. Some might ask a director what is my motivation to gain insight to this question but I am fully confident of who I am and it has led me to the best possible answer as to what I am doing. I can answer it in the simplest form. I am simply doing what I do best. I am being me. I am being Crystal FN Hilton. Now before anybody gets their panties in a bunch or if you even go about having a panic attack what I am trying to say is as soon as the bell rings I am entering that ring with one purpose and only one purpose.

I am walking into the ring with the intent to be the best women’s wrestler in the company. I know that is who I am and what I need to do…. What I SHALL do is outlast every single opponent in this match and win the singles match at the end so that I can etch my ticket to Into The Void. So there you have it. I guess I answered where I am going as well but you all should have known that.

I am not a dummy…

Anybody should know that with the Blast From The Past tournament that number one contenders for both world titles are going to be crowned so that poses the question at what this match is going to be for. Well I know what I want and I am just going to come out and say it. What I want to do is to move myself into position to have a shot at the Internet Championship.

It’s the one title that I never lost and it is something that I definitely want to put back on my shoulders. More importantly than that if for some reason that my wife doesn’t get the job done. I know for a fact that this is my path to getting to Andrea Hernandez. All of this stuff that she has said about my wife doesn’t sit well with me. I don’t like it one bit…

In the past I really didn’t respect my role as a loving life and it has always been about what Crystal wants more so than what it should have been about but the truth is I love my wife. She is everything to me and I don’t give a flying fuck if you feel that she isn’t that good of a wrestler. Honestly everybody is free to have their own opinion. However what you won’t do is disrespect my wife. That is where I will draw the line.

Andrea has been talking shit about my wife and the way she just had to force a pin on her in our tag team match a few weeks ago made me realize that she is an awful woman who doesn’t deserve anything. I thought things were over after I made her scream I quit at the end of 2020 but I see I was mistaken…

So now I have to do whatever it takes to win this match so I can scratch her name off of my list. Anybody who knows me should know when it comes to getting what I want. I will go all out to ensure I get exactly what I want. That is Crystal at her finest and it is that type of passion and energy that makes me into the wrestler that I am today.

The question isn’t about what I plan to do… The real one is what won’t I do to get where I know where I need to go. I know that there are other women in this match who probably wish to be here. Women who wish to fight with everything they have to prove a point like they matter or that they should be taken seriously.

That’s the nature of being in a match like this.  However I am surprised about one opponent in particular and that one is in form of Mercedes Vargas.

You know what I find absolutely hilarious?! It’s the fact that she has been ducking me. He has been ducking me ever since I announced the list. She basically said she wouldn’t fight me and honestly it just makes me think she is one huge pussy. I would have expected the almighty Vargas to at least tell the world that she has held the most titles in all of the company or how she has so many wins or some other useless stat. it’s all she ever manages to do now a days. When you actually confront her and want for her to step up to fight you in a match she is quick to back away.

If that’s how you wish to answer of the question of what you plan to do, I won’t argue with you Mercedes. The entire world can see as plain as day that you are simply a bitch who likes to duck but for me I rather be a woman who steps up to fight.

It’s nice that you love tweet up all of these stats and show your love for all of the previous editions of Climax Control or what happened on a certain day. That’s really nice but what about actually showing off what you are doing today.

The fact is that you can’t…

You been here for a long time and I doubt anybody can really acknowledge who you are or what you do around here. This is your big moment! This is your big chance to get to the forefront of the fray. I highly doubt it though because at the end of the day I don’t think you really want it that much. You don’t want it like I do. You aren’t hungry for this moment.

So I feel opportunity is just going to slip you by. It really doesn’t make a difference to me. Once I win this match or get rid of you out of this match I am personally going to scratch you off my list. You are going checked off of the list whether you wanted too or not. You might as well just live to deal with it…

However she isn’t the only one that is in a position of not really knowing what they are doing because Levana seems to be right there as well. Levana is somebody who had all of the potential in the world. It’s not an easy feat to make it to the semi-finals of the Blast For The Past Tournament. Trust me in my first outing I believe me. However as much as it sucked to lose in that first tournament I really started to catch a bigger and better break when I joined the tournament for the second time.

It was in that second outing where I really proved myself, and showcased what would go down as my best year in this company. You are now in a weird position. I know you are probably questioning what is next for you. You probably want to know what you should do right now and if I can give you just the slightest of advice. This is the part where you need to dust yourself off and you jump right back into the fray.

You have all the potential in the world and you are very young into your career. All of that background of being a biker chick should have built you up to never stop fighting. However what I see from you is just a woman who is coming across like a little Emo girl. You are sending tweets that you don’t care about what others think of you. You should know your worth or taking a glance at old wounds.

Would you stop being so mopey and actually do something about your predicament?!

You have the chance of a lifetime. This is your chance to really rise to the occasion. This is the part where you can actually do something and you can go to that ring and showcase that you can outlast some of the best women that SCW has to offer.

If you do that you will have earned your shot at a championship opportunity. However if you show that you don’t even give a fuck it’s as if you are basically throwing the towel in and saying that you don’t care about anything.

If that’s the case why are you even here?! Why even sign up to be a wrestler in the first place. There is so much more than just fighting for the sake of fighting. Hell I have been called a lot of different shit throughout my career. I have been called stuff that would have made me wish to quit but I didn’t. I simply took it and I kept on going. It made me be stronger. It helped me endured.

I don’t care if people think I am a nutcase or a psycho. Looking at it now it only fueled the fans of my fire to get better, and I can confidently say that I am in a much better place right now.

The question you should ask yourself right now is not the fact that you lost and now it’s the end of the world. It’s what are you going to do to learn from that lost. Everything is a teachable moment, and what lesson have you learned?! If the answer is nothing and you rather just sit there and be all down from what you have gone through I feel you still have so much to learn.

Whatever… I hope you figure it out because I definitely have my eye on you and I was looking for a serious fight. I want to earn this win and I don’t want there to be any question on who is the best woman within this match.

Now there’s also Bella Madison in this match and as I said before I love this woman. She definitely is full of energy and a true spit fire. She is quite adorkable especially when it comes to talking up her husband and the only thing that is missing from Bella’s resume in this company is seeing her rise to become a singles champion.

I know she had that one stint where she was a Mixed Tag Team Champion. I know it was definitely a great feeling for her but I bet she wants to experience something more than just that.

If there was ever a chance to step up and become something better, I would say that now is definitely that moment Bella. Over in PWS you have had an amazing career. You have held championships and you just need to transfer over that same dedication to this company. I know you are meant to do something great.

For some reason I see it inside of you. I know you have it and I want you to bring it out. You are one of the people I am looking forward the most to tangling up with, and I hope that we have a moment to have a match with one another. Please give me that match I have desperately wanted.

Bella I think the entire world wants to see you break through your limits. They want you to reach for more. It’s right there within your grasp and you just need to take it. Will you finally get it?!

I personally think you can but you will have to work hard for it so with everything that is inside of you please keep fighting hun. Go out there and really make your mother proud but more importantly make yourself proud.

I will test your abilities and I just hope that you don’t let me down. I wish you the best and I hope you are focused as soon as the bell rings.












Mexico City, Mexico
La Paloma’s Gym
 
Crystal was forced to wake up in her rundown dorm rooms at her Mexican wrestling school. Hovering over her was her father Pedro Lopez. He couldn’t help but passionately shake Crystal about as he tried everything in his power to try to awaken the Hollywood beauty from her slumber. She growled as she turned over in bed and screamed back at him.
 
“Dad just let me go to sleep!!! It’s like 4 o’clock in the morning!”
 
She turned over to tried to remain asleep but Pedro didn’t let up as he shook her even harder than before. He was relentless as he kept on waking her up.
 
“No… It’s not time to sleep Mija! You need to wake up. You are the one who came to Mexico looking for my help. You are the one who wanted to figure out what’s wrong. If you really want to reach for the next step you will get your ass out of bed. Where is your fire?! Where is the passion… As it currently stands I think you lost a step. I have seen some of the students here… SU ESTUDIANTES take this more seriously than you do!”
 
Crystal sighs before yawning in return.
 
“Nobody can’t take this more serious than I do Papi! I am a 19x World Champion. You may have passed this school down to me but I am the one who put it on the map. When I left here and branched off to America I can say I truly made it. Those 19 World titles don’t even factor in the amount of secondary titles that I have won. It also doesn’t include other accolades and everything that has come with being a wrestler…”
 
Crystal flicks her hair with a grin as she speaks some more.
 
“So don’t try to say that I don’t have the passion. It has taken hard work to become who I am, and I know that it will take me to new heights and…”
 
Pedro however just shakes his head in utter disgust as he violently grabs a handful of her hair and he yanks it as hard as he can. He ends up snatching the wig right off of her head and he tosses it to the side.
 
“Mija! You need to cut this out. I know you questioned why I didn’t tell you about you about your siblings and why I didn’t just come out and tell you that I am your uncle and not your father. If you really want to know it’s because I always knew that you simply would not be able to handle any of it. You aren’t mature enough of it. When I heard about you. I knew that I had to go into Detroit and pull you out of there. The real reason why I decided to teach you this wonderful craft of wrestling wasn’t so you could go on to become this mega star. I know you love that aspect but it was actually to teach you discipline…”
 
Crystal snaps back at her father.
 
“I am disciplined!!!”
 
Pedro shakes his head as he yells back at her.
 
“You really aren’t though. For the past five years you have been doing some constant soul searching to try to find out who you are. It honestly should have never even come to that because the answer was always right in front of you. You don’t need to go from person to person asking them what they think. You shouldn’t have to go on your social media and try to throw a pity party because people don’t like you. I taught you better than that but you must have forgotten. “
 
Pedro looks deeper into Crystal’s eyes before crossing his arms.
 
“What the fuck happened to you?! I am not going to deny that you do have wrestling talent. The talent was always rooted deep within you but you just go about life thinking that everything is meant to be easy. You expect for things to be handed to you on a silver platter and all Hollywood did was make you into a Prima Donna. You are quick to stab your wife in the back to get a chance at stardom. You want to use your son to fuel your own ego so you can add another accolade to your name. Is that really how you want people to remember your legacy?!”
 
“But dad… You don’t understand…”
 
“No Christina I do understand! The fact Is when people finally start acknowledging you for what you are. That being a backstabbing manipulative little witch you are quick to backtrack because you don’t like the image is portraying you to be. That’s when you want to change things up so the narrative will fit you. That’s honestly the biggest issue with you. You want to run away from something as soon as you make a decision. You spend time running away than you do sticking to your ideals and in the end that’s what really causes you to fall apart.”
 
Crystal folds her arms as she finally gets out of bed and looks back at him.
 
“So what the hell am I supposed to do?! Do you think I wanted things to turn out this way?! No I didn’t but I just feel like it’s never enough…”
 
“Newsflash it’s never going to be enough. You expect change or simply finding out about you are supposed to do is going to happen overnight. That was never going to be the case. Some things you need to work for. You have to put in the effort and you will finally get the payoff you been waiting for. It’s not going to come when you want it but it’s going to come when you DESERVE it. I know you came through the doors of the gym and you expect me to solve the problem of how you are supposed to be this big sister to Mariah and Mariella but do you think that’s the real issue here?!”
 
Crystal just sighs before shaking her head.
 
“No… I think it has to be a deeper issue than just that because you have always ran away when things got tough. I know it’s sad that you lost your cousin. Hell it pains me that I lost a niece. She was close to my heart. The issue however isn’t that she stood in the gap for you. The reality is everybody always has to take a stand for you. You couldn’t even raise your own daughter Brittany so you let Todd’s sister Jennifer do the honors. You just recently a daughter and it seems that Seleana is more invested into Aurora than you are.”
 
He takes a deep breath as he continues to speak.
 
“I could say the same about Brayden with the way you gave him up for adoption. You ran away from Detroit when the going got tough. You left wrestling school here when things looked to be challenging. You ran away five different husbands. Every year it seems like you want to ask the same question. You want to find yourself?! The reality is you never lost yourself. You know who you are. You just need to embrace it.”
 
Crystal opens her eyes.
 
“What do you mean embrace it?!”
 
“I mean that regardless if you like it or not. Every single thing that you do, every choice you make is what makes up who you are. It’s something that you can’t run away from. You want to stop this entire cycle from happening over and over again. STOP RUNNING!!!”
 
Pedro Lopez keeps looking at his daughter before he begins to take his leave.
 
“Wait where are you going dad?!”
 
Pedro just shakes his head as he keeps on walking.
 
“I am going to check on my other students. This is the time that everybody wakes up and they start going through their daily warm ups and training. If your dally wish to be the best you have to be dedicated. Are you really content with remaining where you are?! Or do you want something different for your life?!”
 
It’s at that moment that Pedro continues to walk away leaving his daughter behind. Crystal just sighs as she thinks about everything that her father just said to her. She forces herself to get out of bed s she begins to change into her workout clothes. Perhaps her father was onto something, perhaps it was time to really go back to the basics of doing what the students were doing…








Everybody in this match should know who I am and on Sunday I am going to be thrilled because it’s going to be a homecoming for me. I have spent the last twenty years of my life in Los Angeles. That’s a lot longer than I have spent living in my birth city of Detroit Michigan. So if you still want to ponder who Crystal really is I am sure that all of the blossoming roses within Crystal Country will be proud to tell you that fact. I would be a fool if I didn’t also mention Chloe Benton.

Chloe Benton when I look at you I honestly see the tale of the little engine that could. You are so sweet and at the same time very naïve. Over time you will definitely get better and I know one day the entire world is going to rejoice and celebrate you growing up in this business.

You are the clear under dog and what you will be looking to do is to position yourself. You don’t necessarily need to win this match in order to do so. You can get everything you need from putting up a strong showing and showing the entire world how you can fare when you are up against some top notch competition.

Honestly I am behind you as well Chloe. I know your social media presence has definitely been picking up the pace as well. People just flat out want to see you doing well. They want you to make something of yourself and they want to see you improve.

I myself am one of those people as well but here is where the problem lies. The reality is I am hell bent on winning this match. I can’t afford to lose for any reason whatsoever and I know what lies at the end of this journey for me. It just has to be a one way trip to an Internet Championship match. Lord knows that is what I want more than anything else because this stuff with Andrea is starting to get extremely personal. With every time she makes a tweet and bashes my wife or talks her down on a show.

It’s just fanning the flames of my anger and hatred towards her. I just have to shut her up and I won’t let you get in the way of stopping me. I am sure that you will have a bright future in this company. As great as all of that sounds however this is when I show up into your life to be a harsh taste of reality. I am the reality check that you probably weren’t looking forward to having but the one you desperately needed. You will take this match as a lesson that nobody should cross my path when I am focused on something.

I am afraid to be the bearer of bad news but I want this more than you. I am hungrier for this opportunity and I will not let it go to waste. You don’t need a win to achieve your goal but I do. So for me it’s all or nothing.

However there is one person who I know is going to be the ultimate test. Kat Jones is truly that of a warrior. She isn’t a joke and with the reputation that follows her I know that as soon as the bell rings she is going to come after me with everything that she is. There’s no telling what she might do in that ring. She has already made it known that she loves to hurt her opponents, she enjoys hearing their screams and she takes great pleasure in making them suffer.

This might sound absolutely sadistic but truth be told I actually love that. I want you to bring that energy to this match. I want you at your best because there is something that you need to understand as well. The fact is when you dangle something in front of me I always plan to go all out to accomplish something. Nobody will ever take what I am looking to achieve.

You see as dangerous as Kat Jones might be and I know you have the huge reputation that follows you the truth is nothing can ever compare to that of Crystal Hilton and what she brings to the table when she gets involved in a big match. I am the bombshells division and I won’t let anybody just try to dethrone me just to prove themselves. Hell you weren’t around but I turned my back on my own wife just to advance my career so what do you think will happen when it’s you and I in that ring?!

I am not saying that we aren’t friends Kat so don’t take it the wrong way. What I am saying however is when push comes to shove I am super competitive. I am going all out to try to prove myself. I aim to be the best and second place is never good enough for me. In any match that the two of us are involved in I will always try to do whatever it takes to be one step ahead because that’s what I have always done.

Who am I?!

What am I Doing?!

Where am I Going?!

The answers to all of them are simple. As far as who I am, I am the bitch who will continue showcasing why she is the best at what she does. What am I doing?! I am working my ass off to outshine everyone who steps in front of me. Where am I going?!

I am on a one way trip to get straight back to the top and I won’t let anybody get in the way of that. Not even you Kat. We might be friends or at least on the path to becoming such but during the match I am out there to win and I will win. I know you are a good competitor and you will come at me with everything that you have.

It just won’t be enough. The best thing about this match is the fact that it is a gauntlet match. It’s fitting with me because my entire life has felt like one big gauntlet. You don’t know the pain I have gone through. You don’t know how much I have tried to fit in or I have tried to get accepted. It has been a painful process and I know it has definitely driven people to the brink of insanity.

However I have come to the simple conclusion…

I am everything that people claim me to be and for the first time I accept all of it.

At first I tried to run away from it all because I didn’t like the reputation that preceded it but why should I run?!

People say that I am a title crazy whore, and my response is that just means I love to be the best.

People say I change my name a lot, and honestly I just try to adapt.

People say I constantly am looking for redemption, and I can FINALLY say I don’t care anymore. This is who I am and this is what I do. I don’t need to change for anybody because despite everything I might have done. Despite doing things that people may not agree with it still doesn’t change the fact that I have won the big championship more than anybody in this company.

There is a reason why I keep coming back for more and it’s because I love what I do. If you want to know where I am planning to go you might as well look up because that will always be my end destination. I am here to be the best and I want the top spot. I am sure everybody else is good and perhaps some are great.

What they aren’t however is Crystal Zdunich… They don’t live this more than I do and I will showcase that on Sunday. I will win this gauntlet match or at least go out in A BLAZE OF GLORY in trying to do so. I wish you all the best of luck but Sunday yours truly will win and I will get my spot once again.

I wish all of you well but nothing will be able to extinguish these flames of the burning rose…

Flame on… It’s time to make all of you feel the heat…







Few Hours Later


Crystal was up and about. Something her father said had really gotten to her and she refused to remain in the bed. Perhaps everything he said to her he was right. She was one who always kept running. She was one who forgot about everything that got her to the big dance in the first place. It was time to get right back on track which meant that if she was going to go anywhere she needed to focus. She went out for a jog as she ran down the streets of Mexico City. She saw somebody with pink hair in front of her. That woman was none other than that of her protégé who was now helping out as an instructor for the wrestling school in Ashley Whitmore. Crystal caught up to her as she smirks in return.

“Wait up Ash….”

Ashley stopped as Crystal caught up to her. The two women just looked at one another before they glared off into the distance. They were able to see other wrestling students running about as the sweat was dripping down their forehead. Most of them covering their faces with masks as they were representing the spirit of Lucha Libre. Crystal just shook her head as she continued to speak.

“Wow it’s honestly amazing to just take all of this in. it’s been a while since I managed to just look at everything from the perspective of a student. Do you mean to tell me that all of them wake up early in the morning and do this run?!”

Ashley nods her head as she looks right at Crystal.

“Every single one of them, you do realize it’s not required right?!”

Crystal shrugs her shoulders.

“Are you serious?!

Ashley nods her head.

“I am very serious. Your dad has basically installed this ideology that if they want to really make it in the wrestling world they all need to put in extra time of trying to better themselves. He keeps trying to tell them that they need to channel his best student. If they had just a taste of what La Paloma had they will go on to have a successful career. Once they hear that they have no choice but to go all out because they know that the expectations are high…”

Crystal nods her head before sighing in return.

“Yeah… La Paloma…. I know my father really loved that. It’s who I established myself in Mexico and I honestly tried to reestablish myself as that in SCW but it just didn’t last that long. It wasn’t that long until I just went off and took the mask off and become Crystal Hilton… Maybe dad just wants to live in the old days and hold onto something that won’t ever come to pass ever again…”

Ashley however shakes her head as she smirks in return.

“I doubt that or maybe he knows that even if you don’t wear the mask it still doesn’t change the fact that you are his daughter. You will forever be La Paloma…”

Crystal makes a slight smile.

“The dove…”

“Exactly and he knows that at any point you will be free to take flight and soar to new heights. Sometimes people don’t want to flap their wings but you didn’t have any problem taking that chance. Yes you got involved in Hollywood but you also knew you had to work hard to get there. It just wasn’t given to you overnight…”

Crystal just stands there as she watches everybody running ahead of her.

“Watching these students really reminds me of everything I went through when I was a student here. it was definitely some much simpler times and I miss it a lot…”

A hand touches Crystal on the back and she slowly turns around. Her father is right there with a grin on his face.

“Here’s is the best thing Mija, the truth is you will always be La Paloma. Even if you don’t have the mask on…”

“Really?! I don’t understand how that is possible though.”

Pedro begins to grin as he speaks some more.

“It’s what I have been wanting for you to comprehend the entire time. Something you just need to understand. We don’t run away from the past… We embrace it… As long as you embrace who you are, you won’t ever be in a position where you will ever question yourself ever again… Are you finally ready to embrace everything that you have ever done?!”

Crystal looks at the other students before she slowly nods her head in agreement.

“I am ready… It’s been a long time coming but I am tired of running away…”

“Good… It’s about time you did that. Now that you took the biggest step forward we can finally focus on you being ready for whatever comes your way. No more pity parties, no more escaping… This is who you are Crystal and you just need to be proud of every single bit of you…”

Crystal keeps her eyes focused on the distance. She nods her head in agreement and it’s on this image that we fade out on.

Detroit Michigan
Home Coming

It felt like an eternity since Crystal Zdunich had decided to return back to her birthplace of Detroit Michigan. She and her long time best friend Stephanie Sullivan had to come back to their hometown. The two were there to celebrate their 15 year anniversary of their graduating class reunion. Although this celebration was supposed to occur in 2020 with everything that happened with the Pandemic it was rescheduled to a later date. Now was that time and we are able to see Stephanie’s black 2022 Honda Civic pulling up into the parking lot of Martin Luther King High School. Stephanie smiles as she opens up the door and is wearing a pair of shades over her eyes. She looks at her surroundings before turning her attention over to Crystal.

“Come on Crystal we are finally here… Get out of the car so we can reunite with everybody…”

Crystal however just sighs as she shrugs her shoulders in return. She doesn’t look to be in the best of moods as she slowly gazes over at Stephanie.

“Do I have to go to this event?! Not for anything but I never even graduated… I never got a high school degree... This seems to be more like your world then it was ever mine. Wouldn’t you feel better if you just went in and had your big moment and let me just sit out here. Better yet I could go visit my mother or even your grandmother, but anyplace would be better than this place…”

Stephanie just walks over to the passenger’s side of the vehicle. She quickly opens the door and yanks the blue haired vixen out of the seat. She places her arm around her as she leads her away from the car.

“Oh come on! Chrissy… You know as well as I do that you should have been part of that graduating class. If you weren’t busy trying to raise Brittany this would have definitely been your scene. I don’t see why you WOULDN’T want to be here! You were an amazing athlete. A woman who was an All American in just her freshman year has a lot to smile about…”

Stephanie smiles but Crystal just shrugs her shoulders as she is speechless.

“As amazing as that might sound you must have forgotten about the way I was bullied nearly every single day of school. How the stuck up girls beat me up and flushed my head down the toilet… I rather not have to take a walk down memory lane and relive those days. Not to mention I had to deal with people tormenting me and calling me a half breed. Not Hispanic enough to hang out with the Hispanics, not black enough to be with the black people. I felt like I was attacked on all sides and it just wasn’t fair…”

Stephanie shakes her head looking back at her friend.

“But at least you had me, and we were there for one another. Hell I made sure I was there for you Crystal… I have always been there for you!”

Crystal is slowly taken towards the school but she stops as she glances out at the softball and baseball fields. She turns her attention over to Stephanie replying back to her.

“You say you were there for me but let’s be honest. The only reason why one of the only token white girls in the school was there for me is because you wanted to treat me like a charity case. It was like you was Glinda and I was Elphaba. What you thought was kind was your way of trying to make me popular and I don’t think it worked… Nothing really did…It doesn’t erase the horrors of what I went through at this school…”

Crystal keeps her eyes locked on the softball field as she smiles in return.

“It’s just crazy looking out at the field. I had so much potential… if I never got pregnant who knows what might have happened… That field was truly of a safe haven to me…”

Stephanie looks out at the field as she shrugs her shoulders.

“Yeah… You definitely were good although I think I preferred being the captain for the cheerleading team. I definitely threw my share of parties. Not to mention being named home coming Queen, and Prom Queen was also a great touch too… Everybody at this school wanted to be me and…”

Crystal just keeps her eyes on the field as she sighs in return. She decides to walk towards the school as Stephanie stands there rambling on about the past. She finally catches up to Crystal as she tries to follow her.

“I was in the middle of saying something…You could have at least waited for me. I don’t know why you are rushing to get inside the school it’s not like you wanted to be here anyway…”

Crystal shrugs her shoulders.

“I didn’t… It’s just that glaring at the field was going to be emotional. I…. I just rather be on my way. I got a lot going through my mind…”

The two women walk through the doors of the school and they are treated to a huge banner that reads “Happy 15th year anniversary Class of 2005” Crystal and Stephanie walked through the hallways just taking everything in. Stephanie smiles looking at the lockers.

“Do you remember these Chrissy?!This is where I found Rachel and Alicia beating the snot out of you… If I didn’t save you and made you my friend the attacks would have been even more brutal…”

Stephanie words really didn’t register that well with Crystal as no words could actually account for how badly she was bullied in the school. Crystal however is no worry to walk towards the gym where the reunion was taking place. Instead she spots a huge trophy case and she walks over there. She smiles as she sees newspaper clippings of her winning All American. She looks at the wall of accomplishments and some of her track records still stand however she looks at the male accomplishments and the name Brayden Matthews is all over the place. Crystal let’s some tears roll down her cheek as she leans closer for a look when two voices call out to her.

“Awe!!!! Rachel is that who I think it is?!”

Two blonde women sneak up behind Crystal with evil grins on their faces. The other woman claps her hands as she replies back.

“I think so Alicia… If it isn’t Easy Sleezy Chrissy… I am surprised they invited someone like you to this reunion. Last time I checked this gathering is for people with ACTUAL high school diplomas. You know… People that ACTUALLY graduated from here, dropouts shouldn’t be honored…”

“Got that right… Easy Sleezy gave it up on the first night to the only boy here that would talk to her and she wasn’t smart enough to use safe sex. It must suck being yet another high school dropout and statistic…”

“Teenage pregnancy, I would figure that would be the case from someone LIKE HER…”

The women just mock Crystal to no end but she doesn’t say anything. She is silent as instead tears roll down her eyes. The women continue to harass her.

“She isn’t so tough without her sisters Ester or Cherrie here…”

“Or where’s Stephanie?! She always did hang out with her to do her part for the inner city kids…”

That was a good question. Where was Stephanie?! Stephanie was off doing her own thing as she had somehow made her way to the party. Crystal was left alone and it’s as if she was frozen in place. She wanted to say something but it’s as if she was that hurting teenager again. It was at that moment that a voice called out to them.

“Shouldn’t you two be heading to the party, last time I checked harassing somebody in your mid-thirties just makes you look really childish. I honestly thought you two would have grown out of that but maybe I was mistaken…”

The two women quickly walk away leaving Crystal standing there alone with the woman. Crystal turns her attention to the woman and she can’t help but her as tightly as she could. A black fit woman stood in front of her and she hugged her back. Crystal wipes the tears from out of her eyes as she looks deeply into her eyes.

“Thank you so much coach Brown… It really means a lot that you could be there for me…”

The woman nods her head as she looks right at Crystal.

“I couldn’t let those two bully one of my favorite athletes and students. As we grow older I can see that a lot of things remain the same. Well except that hair color of yours. “

Crystal just shrugs her shoulders.

“I honestly don’t know what happened… I feel like I just froze and in that moment I wasn’t the woman that I know I am. I was that same Christina from high school…I don’t know how to feel…”

Coach Brown nods her head as she places a hand on Crystal’s shoulder.

“Listen you can’t let people get to you. I know sometimes words might hurt but they should never break you. You could have easily just told those women to piss off. As much as they might see you as the same Christina from back then the truth is you have grown and blossomed into something really beautiful…”

Crystal sighs in return.

“That feels nice Coach Brown but sometimes I don’t really feel that. I just freeze in place and it’s like I let everything get to me. I ran away from my wife a few months ago because I felt like I just wasn’t good enough. I felt that she could do much better than me, and I felt empty inside…”

The woman shakes her head as she looks right into Crystal’s eyes.

“That’s part of the problem Christina. You can’t let things just get to you or run away when things get tough. Sometimes you just need to look at adversity in the face and take it on head first. You might not have the degree and you might have gotten pregnant at an early age. That isn’t a crutch though. That meant you had to grow up really quick. Taking care of another far exceeds having to worry about yourself. Motherhood is a challenge like none other and it wouldn’t even matter how much education you have. Nothing would ever prepare you for it. What you might call failures is only just trial and error. There’s no wrong answer in parenting… Now I have heard you are a Grandmother now and I know you won’t fail at that either…”

She takes a deep breath and speaks some more.

“It’s all a learning experience but you are amazing. You have become a top notch athlete. You are big in the entertainment world and even if you don’t feel it. You just need to look in the mirror and realize that you are special. Even to this day you still have records on that wall that haven’t been broken. You should be proud… If you look closer you will see that Brayden excelled as well. He has done so much for this school…”

Crystal looks away.

“I can’t take any of that credit though… He was the child that I gave away…”

Coach Brown places an arm on her shoulder.

“As true as you might think that might be it still doesn’t change the fact that he came from you. He has your blood running through him. It is who he is and obviously he holds you in high regard. If he didn’t he wouldn’t have taken your surname…He is your son whether you raised him or not…”

Crystal nods her head in agreement as she looks at the wall.

“And now my son is expecting for me to form this team with him… To be honest everybody has been asking me if I am excited or if I am ducking him. Truth be told I am afraid to be on his team…”

“And why exactly are you afraid?!”

Crystal sighs.

“I just don’t want to disappoint him. I had the chance to win the tag team championships with the best male to have ever stepped foot inside of a ring in J2H and we couldn’t get the job done, so what could really change in having my son there with me?!”

Coach Brown stands there as she shakes her head before crossing her arms together.

“I think the biggest thing you should be worried about is whatever happens will happen. Don’t worry about what may not happen. If people end up talking you down don’t let them get to you. They don’t walk in your shoes. They never have and they certainly never will. If people do talk about you just ignore them. You know what you are capable of, and have been fighting for your entire life. There’s no reason to stop being a fighter. As long as you push ahead nothing can bring you down…”

Crystal opens her eyes.

“I understand Coach Brown… Thank you for having my back and always being there for me…”

“Anytime… That’s what I am here for… You will always be my favorite athlete. You just can’t afford to give up. Now why don’t you go in there and enjoy that party… Perhaps you can stop Miss Sullivan from making a fool of herself…”

Crystal can’t help but giggle as she begins to head towards her fifteen high school anniversary reunion. As she does it is on this image that we fade out on.









The cameras come into focus and as they do we are treated to the sight of Crystal Zdunich looking intensely into a camera. A wicked grin escapes her lips as she begins to speak.

“How are all of my blossoming roses doing tonight?! To be honest as I look towards competing in this match this week a lot of different feelings were running through my head. I won’t lie part of me felt disappointed because in my mind I still think that my career should be on a different path than what it is currently set for. I know I am owed a match for the Mixed Tag Team Championships but it seems as if Mikah remains in the Blast From The Past tournament that my plans are placed on the backburner. So you must imagine that there are different thoughts that exist within me…

Am I good enough?!

How does the world view me?!

Why do people feel the need to talk so much shit about me?!

Question after fucking question…. Thought after thought but the main thing going through my mind is the fact that I truly feel like I am on the backburner right now. I am merely an afterthought and that is something that doesn’t sit well at me. You can hate me or you can love me… Honestly I don’t care which of the two you decide to choose. What I won’t deal with however is being completely disrespected and that is where I currently sit right now. The world seems to have this need to bully me. I can’t say anything without somebody jumping down my fucking throat for a new issue. I have been called things from psychotic, to bat shit crazy to other derogatory names.

I will admit all of that honestly got to me… I had trouble sleeping at night. I would get overly emotional over the way Christian talked about me, the way Mikah talked about me and others.

It made me question if I really was as worthless as they all constantly seem to bring up. It made me ponder certain things about myself, and it got to a point when I went back home to Detroit to find what was missing in my life.

For the past year I walked out on my wife to find something out about myself, and I recently had to get time for myself before I had to glance over things. However when I went I have come up with the simple conclusion that I actually don’t give a shit on what anybody says about me. I know people are quick to talk shit about me. Mikah is quick to constantly talk me down but she FORGETS that during the summer of Crystal Millar I went on an absolute tear. I was woman of the year and I rocked the company. Vargas loves to talk shit but when one approaches her she quickly backtracks and doesn’t want to deal when somebody confronts her.

Of course Alicia Lukas will constantly talk down how everybody is better than me, and Amber can sit there biding her time waiting to crush anybody who dares to step the fuck up. So it’s just one big mess waiting to be figured out.

However after really assessing things from a different perspective I have come to the conclusion that I truthfully don’t give a shit on how any of the haters on this roster view me. That’s not me being cocky but that’s me being fully confident because at the end of the day I know who I am. I am the woman who has held the World Bombshell Championship five times, and as a matter of fact I am the ONLY one in this entire company to win a World Title five times. I am a Hall of Famer and I still have the ability to go out there and do it all over again.

So if you think you are going to break me down with words you better think twice before it won’t happen. Now this week the world will get to see the Zdunich married couple taking on the team of Andrea and Evie Jordan. Long behold it is an absolute honor to team up with my lovely wife. At one point she was nothing but a trophy wife. One to show off but she has grown to be so much more than that. Seleana is also a fighter and she is a woman that is as dangerous as a lioness. Not only does she take care of them in a zoo but she knows how to stalk and hunt her prey as one. If she is pushed to the edge she will beat Andrea at the Super Card, and will walk away as the brand new Internet Champion…

Mark my words on that…

Let’s cut to the chase though because ladies and gentlemen we have the big return of Evie Jotdan…Now  can I just completely be honest with all you?! You would think that Evie returning would be a huge fucking deal. After all it’s EVIE JORDAN right?!

However I don’t think it’s getting the reaction as she thinks it is going to get… It’s not a case of OMG IT’S EVIE FUCKING BAANG RETURNING!!!  It’s more of the case of…. Oh….. It’s Evie…. And she’s returning….again?! I would pay more attention to it but how many times have we saw this tape being played out?! It seems to be the case of the same old shit over and over again.

Evie comes in… And leaves….

Evie claims she got forced signed up for a Blast From The Past tournament…. And eventually leaves….

Now she is claiming that she is back yet again and it’s like okay let’s just cut the shit already. This is not a revolving door you just can’t come and go as you please. The more you do it is the more that people stop paying attention to you. You know it’s a damn shame when you return and suddenly leave more than I change hair colors, personalities, gimmicks, or even name changes… That’s a damn shame…

Hell I bet you have been through more debuts, returns, and sudden leaves more than I gone through relationships while being employed here….

But hey perhaps I shouldn’t be mean because after all it’s Evie Jordan right so it’s a big fucking deal right?! Maybe I should pay attention because Evie is the one who took the World Bombshell Championship from me when she won her Blast From The Past Tournament the first time. It’s a thought that still eats away at me but you can bet your bottom dollar that I definitely will rectify that image.

I mean I basically beat your little quartet of friends that you belong too…

Melody Grace?! Yeah I beat her in a singles match before she eventually took my World Bombshell Championship by pinning Salco in a four way match.

Dani Weston?! That’s my home girl but yeah I beat her too….

Odette Stevens… I get booked against her in this big Climax Control match and guess what I beat her.

But now only one remains and I refuse to lose to the one that got away. I need to pay back the favor of wishing to fight her, and a long time ago my daughter bit off more than she could chew. She constantly called out Evie in hopes of defending her Roulette Championship against her. Evie carved her up but honestly it should have been me who should have been calling out Evie. It should have been me in that ring. This week we will fix things and I will finally put a nail through the coffin on why I am better than her. Don’t let me down evie and disappoint because I damn sure will be coming to beat the living shit out of you.

However if that wasn’t enough the other woman in this match is a woman that I definitely know. She is a woman who I have been in the ring with on multiple occasions. She is a woman that took away a World Bombshell Championship from me. In a different world we would could have been friends. She is a woman that I saw a lot of myself in but when she had the opportunity she made sure to stab me in the back.

That was definitely a smart move because let’s face it based on my track record that definitely was a page taken right out of my playbook. Andrea and my history goes way beyond just us having these battles in the ring that was completely brutal. We have a connection that goes back to our fathers competing together in Mexico.

I won’t lie… Andrea is definitely a top tier athlete. She knows how to get shit done and she can wrestle with the best of them. Her attitude sucks though and she is getting cocky too much for her own good. She too is another who quickly backs down when a challenge comes in her direction. I know my wife is next in line but I want everybody to understand this right now.. I want Mark and Christian to hear me out because it doesn’t seem like I am going to get a chance at Mikah any time soon.

But for any reason if Seleana doesn’t get the job done I want next at the Internet Champion… I want to get at Andrea in a singles match. She has basically coasted for her entire title reign and she needs somebody who is going to put the pressure on her. I have all the confidence in my life and I know she is an amazing competitor.

What makes us different however is I don’t mind doing whatever it takes to pull out a win! I will pull out all of the stops and I will make Andrea really work to pull a win out of her ass. How’s it going by the way Andrea?! You really have been quite the Bitch haven’t you?!  You big on this absolute tear and you been kicking ass like none other.

Honestly it’s absolutely impressive. You should be really proud. The only thing it took for you to get your ass moving in gear was taking a huge L from yours truly. I remember it Crystal clear. You provoked me and you forced me to lose my cool in the ring. You caused me to get suspended because I decided to strike a referee.

The moment I returned is the moment that you and I were in a collision course in a major I quit match. What happened when you and I fought in a match with the stakes of having to have the opponent to mutter out those words to pick up the win?!

The truth is that is when I really decided to show up. That’s when I showed the fuck out and I beat the shit out of you so much that you had to quit. It definitely was a learning experience for you because after that match you didn’t have ANYTHING to say about me. You stated that you were done talking about me and that you were going to move on.

I doubt that’s why you moved on though. The real reason why you moved on is because you took the ass whopping very personally and you didn’t want to receive another one. You felt it would be better to be off of my radar and that’s why you went onward towards something else. That’s when you were crying for a Roulette Championship match and some other shit.

Whatever floats your boat but here you are and you are definitely in the spotlight now. You have some publicity and are actually the most hated person on the roster. That’s really good because it means you are capturing the audience. You will need to do so much more than that if you think it’s going to be enough to beat me.

That’s why I want you to bring everything you got. Give me all of that smoke and bring me that Andrea that I know you can bring. Bring me the warrior, the fighter, and the one who doesn’t back down from a challenge. Don’t channel that bitch who at one point complained about Roulette Championship matches or argued about how terrible their Blast From The Past partner was. That is not the woman I see or want.

This week I know I am in for a war and honestly I have been waiting for this. If you want to see somebody step up look no further because I am ready for what’s to happen. The question is are you ready for it?! Nothing and I mean nothing will stop this rose from blossoming…

See all of you very soon…

It’s Showtime…

It’s time to roll the credits on these two once and for all.

Los Angeles, California
Williams Estate

It had been a long time since Todd Williams had found himself inside of a wrestling ring. The Redeemer the man who had always envisioned himself being the individual to save professional wrestling was living in a more laidback sense. He was more accustomed to being a family man and being there to raise his now almost two year old son Xavier. Life was good for the most part as Todd enjoyed being in the background for his newly married wife Hope. He loved trying to do his part to bring up to speed of being a great wrestler. If that wasn’t enough he had loved watching his Brittany trying to rise through the ranks and his son Brayden trying to walk in his shoes.

Life was good and it couldn’t get any better than that. However as amazing as things might have been there was certainly a void in his life. He tried to fill that void by resorting to his womanizing ways trying to screw anything that moved but that never filled it. He tried to obtain as much power as he could but monopolizing the drug world didn’t work either. What was missing from his life was the thrill of being in the ring. He loved the sport of wrestling and when he saw SCW offering a chance to compete in their tournament he was quick to jump at the opportunity. This was certainly a new beginning and he wasn’t going to let it go to waste.

Todd Williams found himself working out as hard as he could in his personal gym. He was picking up a heavy medicine ball and he was tossing it around. His two year old son smiled as he looked at him from a distance.

“Daddy is strong…”

Todd nodded his head with a smile as he looked at his son offering him a huge grin. He couldn’t help but pick up a jump rope and it was at that moment when he went as fast as he could to jump over the rope. The little boy just watched in astonishment as he clapped his hands at his dad.

“Faster daddy… Faster….”

Todd looked at his son with a grin as he kept his eyes on him.

“Don’t worry I plan to go fast as I can. Do you like what you see?!”

The little boy nodded his head as he looked deeply at his father.

“My daddy is the best!”

It was definitely a special moment between father and son. Todd couldn’t believe that in the eyes of his son he truly was that of a superhero. It was this feeling that he really enjoyed and he didn’t want it to ever end. He knew that getting back into the ring at this stage in his life was definitely the right decision. It would offer his son the chance to see what his father does best, and he loved every single bit of the feeling. Todd didn’t stop there as he decided to change things up. His eyes moved to that of his elliptical machine. He had planned to work every single part of his body. He had stepped onto the machine and ten minutes went by. His wife Hope made her way down into the gym and he smirked as she spoke out to him.

“Todd sweetie you have a special guest…”

Todd had sweat dripping from his forehead. He turned his attention to the machine which read that he had burned two hundred calories and he quickly switched it off. He grabbed his towel making sure to wipe all of the sweat from his eyes as he looked back at his wife.

“So what type of special guest are we talking about?! You know I am trying to get back into the wrestling ring and I want to be at my very best when I do step inside and do what I do best…”

Hope nodded her head giggling as she looked back at him. Xavier quickly ran towards his mother who didn’t hesitate to quickly yank him up off of the ground and raise him proudly through the air.

“MOMMY!!!!”

“Hey my little pumpkin… Have you been enjoying your time with daddy?! Why don’t we go upstairs and watch some baby shark or maybe Paw Patrol. I know you love them both!”

The little boy grinned widely as he took him away from the gym. Todd just stood there dumbfounded as he crossed his arms in return.

“Wait… You promised me a special guest… My son was enjoying his time down here. If you let him stay down here for longer he will learn some tricks how to be a chip off of the old block…”

It was in that moment that a voice replied back to him in return. It was a voice that he had known better than anybody else. It was from the true love of his life, his first love and the mother of his twins. That other figure was none other than Crystal Zdunich. Crystal’s normal blue hair was replaced by this natural black hair that looked completely angelic. She walked down the stairs folding her arms together as she looked right into his eyes.

“So I see you are actually doing your trying and doing everything in your power to get back into the ring…”

Todd smiled as he looked back at her.

“And I see you are still as gorgeous as always, although I didn’t take you as the type of woman who would walk around with black hair. That’s really not your style. I expected more over the top with you. After all you are Crystal Hilton so things have to be larger than life…”

Crystal just shakes her head with a sigh looking back at her former husband.

“Normally I would have been like that but catching Corona Virus really didn’t treat me that well. It was one of the worst things to have happen to me in my life. As soon as the Inception was announced I felt sick. I didn’t think much of it but I am grateful for the bosses that we have in SCW. Mark and Christian both wanted to make sure that I was one hundred percent focused on recovering. So they pulled me off of the show with pay, and wanted me to get better…”

Crystal sighs as she shakes her head sighing.

“There’s not much to be done being in complete isolation especially when I forgot to stock up on blue hair. I think what hurts more than that is being away from my Seleana and Alexandra, or my little Aurora. That girl loves me so much but I couldn’t be near her. She is immune compromised so being near her would have put her in danger…”

Todd nods his head just agreeing with her.

“Yeah, I couldn’t imagine being away from Xavier for that long. I love that boy and I would do anything for him. The same goes for Brittany and Brayden, I would do anything to make both of them happy…”

Crystal sighs in return.

“Yeah… It sucks that I couldn’t compete at Inception. I know Brayden was really looking forward to teaming up with me. I really think that we could have been really special. We definitely would have won those Mixed Tag Team Championships and brought a breath of fresh air to the division. However all of that is now washed away because the company decides to bring Mikah back in my place and I have to be subjected to hearing her call me bat shit crazy over and over again…”

Todd looks at his former wife as he grins in return.

“Crystal we both know that this whole thing about the mixed tag team division is definitely about you trying to become a Grand Slam Champion… You can tell everybody otherwise but I know you better than you know yourself…”

Crystal doesn’t say anything as she replies with a dumbfound look

“…”

Todd just giggles as he replies back to her.

“On a serious note I think you and Bray would have been an amazing team. He really loves you so much. He loves you to the point he decided to take your Maiden name. Being a Hilton is important to him and he went that path because of you. Even though he would probably never say it you are who he looks up too…”

Crystal quickly shakes her head.

“Are you kidding?! He might have my name but he is YOU… Just look at who he married. I wonder why he is attracted to Hispanic women in the first place?! Maybe that has something to do with how you were attracted to me. On top of that just look at the way he wrestles and how that mouth is so reckless. That is you in a nutshell…Enough about our son though. What about our daughter?! That little girl idolizes being your princess and she has your surname. She is proud to be a Williams and…”

Todd is the one laughing at this point.

“And yet as much as she might be my princess that little girl is definitely your mini me. I mean look at her lifestyle. She found a tall blonde drink of water for a wife. She walks around with the same type of attitude that you had when you were walking out to the ring with a red carpet and a bunch of photographers. You remember being the Rose Goddess right?! That is who she is right now, she is Hollywood and she is definitely YOUR DAUGHTER!!!”

“And I could say BRAYDEN is definitely YOUR SON!!!”

They both look at one another just sighing at one another. Todd shakes his head with a grin.

“Damn… We definitely certain type of parents aren’t we?!”

Crystal giggles.

“And now we are grandparents, God help us. The apples certainly didn’t fall far from the tree. However all hope isn’t lost. We definitely can rectify this and become really good role models for our children to follow…”

Todd raises his eyes.

“Oh and how can we go about doing that?!”

Crystal just sighs in return as she offers a long deep breath.

“By doing things in the right way, as far as I go that means being stable. Not sitting there and wanting to change my mind on something if things don’t pan out. I have to stay the course, and I can’t afford to be afraid of people when they repeatedly say things that I don’t like…”

“Exactly…”

Todd takes a long glance into Crystal’s eyes.

“That means at some point you will have to confront Mikah, and I know she can say so many things that can clearly get under your skin. You can’t let it bother you Crystal. You need to overcome and showcase that you are better than her…”

She nods her head as she looks back at him.

“I know and as far as you go Todd you need to also do the same. I know you put your name into this Blast from the Past Tournament, and the moment you did I know there are people out there who just didn’t take you seriously. There are people who think you may not even show up or you are just there to take up space and for publicity. You can’t let that be the case Todd. You are better than that…”

Todd slowly nods his head in agreement.

“I know but more important than that WE ARE BETTER THAN THAT CRYSTAL! We can’t let this be the way that people view us. Our legacy needs to be looked upon in another way. This is our chance to flip the script. We have our kids that are looking up to us but more important than that we have Isabella who is our third generation. We need to establish a legacy that she can be proud of. One where people will say she is from the Hilton and Williams legacy that we won’t be mocked at…”

“Exactly so let’s be there for her and let’s change things while we have the opportunity to do so right now. I know I am ready to finally shut Mikah’s mouth off. This has been like 6 years in the making but it needs to be done, but the real question I want to ask you is are you ready to step into ring and compete in the Blast In The Past tournament?!”

Todd thinks about it as he smiles in return.

“Am I ready to compete in the Blast From The Past?! Not really… Being ready isn’t enough, but the real question is am I ready to win the whole entire thing?! To answer that question it’s simple really. Of course I am ready. I was born for this moment, I live for this moment. It has been a long time since I said this but it’s time to get back on the saddle. The world may have forgotten me but I will make them remember…”

Crystal begins to get all giddy as she nods her head smirking.

“Oh, and what exactly are you going to make them remember?! It has been a while so you might have to give me a refresher…”

Todd licks his lips passionately as he screams out at the top of his lungs.

“if they forgot it’s simple… My name is TODD WILLIAMS and I MEAN BUSINESS!!!!!!!!!”

Crystal smirks getting exactly.

“TODD’S MEANS WOO! TODD MEANS BUSINESS… DAMN MAN DAMN!!! It’s time for you to go out there and GET BIG now…”

Todd chuckles.

“Baby… I can you two kids and if we didn’t have the misfortune of those miscarriages it would have been a whole lot more…”

Crystal screams.

“NO, NO, NO! I didn’t mean that type of big… I mean in an urban dictionary type of way. you know Get Big which is defined as the act of completely dominating an opponent and drawing the attention of everyone around!”

Todd chuckles.

“Gotcha so pretty much showcase why I know how to play my position and don’t be like a Paul Millsap when his sorry ass got traded to the Nuggets. Dude is out there being Big for Nothing, and never wants to post it…”

“Todd in a nutshell go out there and DO SOMETHING just don’t LOOK like you can do something…”

“Baby cakes I plan to do just that… Now if you don’t mind I have to let you know that I WOULD LOVE TO STAY BUT I GOTS TO GO!”

“Why?! We just to talking and we really should train for your tournament…”

Todd giggles.

“Well it’s not a good idea for me to be downstairs alone with the love of my life. I feel a certain way and I really take these feelings out on my wife, and you should do the same…”

Todd glared at Crystal from head to toe, and he couldn’t help that he was turned on. However he turned around as he ran upstairs trying to get his wife. Crystal keep her eyes locked on her ex-husband. She was all grins but she quickly pulled her phone out dialing a familiar number.

“Oh Seleana… Guess what WE are going to do tonight?! I will see you soon…”

With that we fade out on this scene.

November 29th
Monday, 2021
Zdunich Manor

It had been an eventful weekend to say the least. Finally after months of dealing with a separation Crystal had finally returned home to her family. It had been apparent that she had been missed as the entire time that she had been gone. It truly as if the prodigal daughter had returned home. However as amazing as it was there was someone in that household that was going through a lot. Brayden had been through a lot since before Crystal’s disappearance. His wrestling career hadn’t been going in the direction that he really saw it going. Brayden had been lost since he had arrived in SCW. At first his career seemed promising. He had managed to secure some wins and was set to move in the right direction but lately it’s as if he had fallen from grace. He didn’t know what the issues were but what he did know is that he wasn’t the man that he was supposed to be, and he needed to figure out why.

It was the Monday of Crystal’s birthday weekend. In typical Crystal fashion especially since she hadn’t been around for about two months she had a lot of catching up to do. What a better way to do so than by making sure her 34th birthday was special. It was Monday and it was a big family day as everybody sat by the pool. Seleana was working the grill. Alexandra was taking time to play with Aurora. Crystal was showboating wearing a long sash that read “Birthday girl” along with a tiara on her head. Brayden just sat on the side with a can of soda in his head. Next to him was his lovely wife Sofia with baby Isabella sleeping peacefully in her arms. She shakes her head as she looks over at her husband.

“What’s wrong Mi Amore?! Ever since we got here you haven’t said a word. You haven’t been eating. It’s as if you don’t want to be here. Is everything okay?!”

Brayden slowly lifts his head up as he looks back at his wife. He takes a long deep breath before shrugging his shoulders.

“To be honest not really Sofia, I don’t feel very happy right now. I know mom just got back and I should really appreciate that it took a lot of strength to admit that she was wrong and return back to the ones she loves but I feel she needs to be there for me. I am not okay… I need her, and I am going through so much right now…”

Sofia nods her head as she keeps rocking Isabella.

“Well why don’t you tell her that. I know your mom can be a bit overwhelming at times but she’s not a mind reader babe. You can’t expect her to know exactly what it is you are going through. You have to communicate and really learn how to share your heart…”

Brayden opens his eyes in amazement as he looks back at her.

“Open my heart?! I appeared in her life last year because I wanted to know mom. I wanted to be in her life. I did exactly what I was supposed to do. I got close to her, Brittany, and even Seleana. I get that she just got back and I respect that. She needs time to bond with her loved ones again and showcase how much she loves them. However you don’t think I have those same needs as well?! Brittany and I haven non-stop arguing with one another ever since she decided to throw that little temper tantrum in that other wrestling company and put her hands on Seleana. My wrestling career hasn’t been anywhere close to where it should be…”

Sofia shakes her head as she looks deeply into Brayden’s eyes.

“No… Your career hasn’t been where it needs to be ever since they put you in the ring with Fenris and you have been complaining and beating yourself over it.”

Brayden thinks about it for a few moments before he sighs and looks right at his wife.

“You damn right I haven’t been same because of it. It’s because I felt SCW was trying to fucking bury me. I came into the company with such promise. I was on a winning streak. I picked up some steam and truly was somebody that fans could watch for the future. However I never once got that respect. After two fucking matches… Just two I immediately get Fenris shoved down my throat. That is surely a one way trip into getting buried. I know I didn’t deserve that but apparently that’s what I get?! Bullshit…”

Sofia shrugs her shoulders as she just sighs in return.

“You are acting like a little kid and you can’t be like that.

Off Camera
Las Vegas, Nevada

A few weeks had gone by since Crystal Zdunich had decided to move out of her home walking out on her wife and adopted daughter. Her life was now in that of being alone at her friend Zoey Madigan-Star’s apartment. Crystal had been an emotional mess. As much as she didn’t want to admit it she had missed Seleana and Aurora. Deep down she wanted to go back home. She wanted to hold her beautiful wife in her arms. She wished she could hug her daughter Aurora and tell her how much she loved her. She however knew she couldn’t go back. Going back wouldn’t change anything. Even though Zoey did everything in her power to try to reach out to her she just couldn’t accept the words. It would always be a case of the same old stuff. Crystal would force a half willed apology just to feel loved, and it wouldn’t be long before things were right back to where they were.

It was a dark and vicious cycle without any signs of ending. That is why she knew she had to walk away from her loved ones even though it hurt so much. This wasn’t meant to make Crystal feel well but it was out of protection for their sake. Zoey’s apartment was a complete wreck since Crystal had taken residency there. There were tubs of barely eaten melted ice cream all over the place. Garbage was all over the floor. If Zoey had walked in she would have had a heart attack. Where was Crystal in the middle of all of this mess?! She was in the bathroom. Crystal took a long glance at her reflection in the mirror.

She shook her head in disgust as she looked at her body. Despite all of the ice cream everywhere it’s as if she had barely touched them. She slowly took a step onto a scale. She waited patiently until it’s bright light illuminated the bathroom, the digital screen read 107 lbs. That is when Crystal backed away as she sighed in disgust.

“Damn it… Another three pounds… I got to do something. This isn’t good… I have to eat. I can’t let this bother me as much as it is… Get a hold of yourself Christina you can do this…”

Christina made her way back towards the living room. She knew she should have been in a better physical state but it was hard with the way she was feeling. She throws herself back onto the couch as she pulls out her cellphone.

“I wonder how my granddaughter is doing. I bet she really misses her Abuelita…”

Crystal cycles through Sofia’s social media page in hopes of seeing some pictures of her granddaughter when there is a knocking at the door. Crystal is taken back as she didn’t expect to receive any guests. As a matter of fact she didn’t even tell anybody where she was at. Unless you count the way she tweeted that she was staying at Zoey’s apartment but that’s neither here or there. The knocking got louder and louder to the point as it almost sounded like somebody wanted to break in. Crystal pulls herself off of the couch as she stands up proudly.

“JUST GIVE ME A FUCKING MINUTE!!! I will answer the door when I get there!!!!”

Crystal is very sluggish as she finally begins to move and she heads towards the door. Different thoughts ran through her head as to who might be standing on the opposite end of it. Perhaps it was her friend Farrah who was hoping to have some shopping therapy with Crystal. Maybe it was Danielle Weston hoping the two of them can just have a day to themselves or maybe it was Seleana telling Crystal that through everything she forgave her. Crystal finally makes it to the door. She doesn’t bother to look through the peephole as she just swings the door open. However the person standing on the opposite end wasn’t anybody she was expecting. Instead she is treated to a dark skinned man with long hair smirking at her. He stares at her from head to toe before he shakes his head in disgust.

“Damn you look like complete shit Crystal. What happened because you certainly don’t look like the woman I remember?! Well at lease the woman that was married to me…”

That arrogant cocky response could only come from one man. It was that of her first love, her first husband and the father of her kids Todd Williams. Todd chuckled as he continued looking at her as he peeked inside glaring at the apparent mess that was all over the place.

“Damn what the fuck happened in this place. It really looks like a pif lives here…”

Crystal crosses her arms as she glares right into his eyes. A deep breath escapes her lips as she sighs in return.

“Whatever… Who invited you and how in the hell did you know where I was to begin with. I honestly thought it would be somebody worthwhile knocking at the door. I never expected to see you here…”

Todd however enters into the apartment as he just shakes his head with a sigh. His eyes never leave off of her as he tries everything in his power to reach out to her.

“Take it easy Crystal. As much as it might seem like it. I really didn’t come here to annoy you. I honestly came here because I wanted to help you. When I saw those tweets of you separating from Seleana, and walking out on Aurora I just felt like I had to talk to you. Especially considering that you were staying here. I know you better than yourself and I just knew that no matter how much you tried to sound strong that definitely wasn’t the case…”

Crystal just sighs as Todd nods his head looking around.

“I am actually glad I got here when I did. This place is a fucking wreck. More importantly than that you look like a wreck. Tell me Crystal you haven’t been eating have you?!”

Crystal shrugs her shoulders as she looks at the condition of Zoey’s apartment. She can’ help but sigh in return as she looks around. As much as she hated to admit it she did enjoy having somebody visit her, even if it was in the form of her former husband. She could only nod her head in agreement as she finally replied back to him.

“I really haven’t been eating. I know you could tell I look like shit. I lost eight pounds in a span of three weeks and it’s sickening. I thought I could at least drown out some of my depression in the form of ice cream but no matter how many tubs I buy and try to take tastes of them. They just don’t taste right. It’s making me sick. I can’t sleep and I can’t eat. I miss her Todd… I miss all of them. I want to go back but I just feel that if I do i am just going to make the same mistake like I always do. It’s an awful cycle and I want it to stop. Seleana deserves better than that. Aurora deserves better and I don’t want to abuse them…”

Crystal is at the verge of tears but Todd however just shakes his head as he keeps his eyes locked on her.

“You don’t have anything to be sorry for. What you did was the hardest first step that you have ever made in your entire life. I know it may not seem like it but how many times have you honestly been able to say that you truly made a mistake?! I don’t ever remember you having the strength to walk away and claim that you need help. That’s definitely a big step. I know that you and I have definitely had our long share of issues. However it’s issues that the both of us have created. We have children together and if you are upset because Brittany has grown up to be a reflection of both of us. That isn’t all on you. It would be unfair for you to carry that cross on your own when the two of us raised that girl. On top of that there’s Brayden and even if he was put up for adoption which I didn’t even have an idea about. The fact is he is still our son…”

Todd looks right into her eyes as he continues sharing his heart.

“We created them together and it’s OUR problem. So it might be best if we deal with them together. You think your biggest issue is the fact that you are an abuser?! Well guess what how did you even get to that position. You just didn’t wake up one day and decide that is who you wanted to become. It had to come from somewhere. I know I am definitely part of the blame for that…”

Crystal shakes her head.

“Todd you can’t say that…”

Todd however nods his head sighing.

“But I definitely can. This story of ours has been going for twenty long years and it ranges ever since I moved to Detroit and forced my problems on you. There’s so much stuff we both went through. I know it sucks and it is definitely a very fucked up situation. However what sucks more is to make the hardest decision of your life and be forced to go through it alone. Being alone will only lead to depression and furthermore it will lead to this…”

Todd points at the coffee table filled with the messy melted tubs of ice cream. He follows it up by pointing at her body.

“That’s only the beginning. It leads to loss of appetite, loss of sleep, and it’s going to lead you down a downward spiral to where you feel that suicide might be the only option to numb the pain. You don’t want to go through any of that, and you damn sure don’t want to even get to that level. Those people you worked so hard to protect will only be cut by a wound that will never be able to heal, and they will establish emotional baggage that they can’t be freed from. That is unfair and on top of that you don’t want to get to that level. We both have little Isabella to worry about. She is the future of the Williams and Hilton legacy. As dysfunctional as we might be we have to get our shit right for that little girl…”

Crystal nods her head in agreement as she looks back at Todd.

“I guess you do have a point. I would feel bad if my actions affected that sweet innocent girl. So what do we do now?!”

Todd looks at the door before he turns his attention back to her.

“Well that’s the reason why I decided to pick you up today Crystal. You feel your biggest issue is dealing abuse to those who you are supposed to love?! We are going to get help for it. I found this support group that deals with domestic abuse. It’s definitely a great step in the right direction and it will directly help you with the issue that you suffer the most from…”

Crystal rolls her eyes as she looks back at Todd.

“I am not going to a fucking support group. I might be a lot of things but I don’t want people to look at me as being this fucked up chick. I don’t want people to even recognize me. Could you imagine what tabloids and other things might say about me going to a…”

Todd raises his voice shaking his head.

“Crystal! This has nothing to do with your reputation. This is about trying to be a better person. Come on let’s go…It shouldn’t matter if people know who you are not. It’s a safe place and…”

Crystal quickly cuts him off.

“Fine I will go… Just let me go get cleaned up. After I do we can go through with this little support group…”

With that Crystal walks away going towards her bedroom, and that is when about an hour goes by. Crystal finally emerges out of the bedroom and she looks different. She is wearing a pair of glasses and is wearing a jet black wig.

“Okay I am ready…”

Todd stands there dumbfounded.

“Crystal… Why the look we are just going to a support group…”

“I told you Todd I don’t want people to know me… I just don’t want my issues coming out in the public. Just call me Carmen Martinez. I am from Mexico City, Mexico, and a new special agent for the FBI who just graduated from Quantico. At night time when I am undercover I am Catalina Lopez a woman who runs the cartel known on the streets as CAT THE GAT!”

Todd just shakes his head rolling his eyes as Crystal tries to offer a small smirk in return.

“Don’t look at me like that… It’s the name I always used when I go to the clubs and don’t want to be seen. It’s who I played on the Firm Wrestling company when it existed and…”

Todd just shakes his head again.

“Whatever let’s just go… I truly don’t think you get the concept of what it means to deal with your problems honestly or what a safe space truly is…”

With that the two of them walk out of the apartment as they head off towards a domestic violence support group.




Same Day
Hour Later
Love And Hope Support Group
Las Vegas

Todd and Crystal “Carmen” walk into a domestic violence support group. It seems to be in a community center of some sort. There is nothing flashy about this group. The two of them can see a group of about six people sitting around in a circle. Todd leads Crystal towards the group, and they find some empty chairs making sure to be part of the group. A woman that seems to be in her mid-thirties looks at the two newly joined people. She keeps her eyes on them as she begins to speak.

“Hello my name is Lisa Winters and I am the facilitator for this group. We are the Love and Hope Support Group and we are here to help you. I know it’s tough to deal with domestic violence but that’s why we are all here. We just want to support one another, and perhaps somebody’s story will touch you to the point where you will feel strong. You don’t have to feel obligated to talk. This is a safe space so anything that is said here will stay in this group. That’s the only one rule that we have…”

Crystal looks at everybody as her eyes move around from person to person within the room.

“Domestic violence, I don’t think I need this…I am sure all of you in here could use this but not me…I might have been through some stuff but I have never struck anybody… I know I said I was an abuser but I would never hit any of my loved ones…”

Crystal goes to stand up but nobody stops her. Instead a younger woman just sits there as her eyes shift over to Crystal and she begins to speak.

“My name is Julie and honestly that’s what I thought the first time I came here as well. I didn’t want to be here because my husband never once hit me. I thought physical abuse was the only type of abuse, but there’s so much more to it than just that. There’s financial abuse, there’s sexual abuse, there’s verbal abuse, there’s control and isolation, and the biggest one is emotional abuse.”

Crystal slowly takes a seat as she looks back at the woman.

“What do you mean by all of these forms of abuse?!”

Julie sits there just shaking her head as Lisa Winters finally begins to speak.

“Yes there are many different forms of abuse, and a lot of people in this group have dealt with various different forms of it. Financial abuse is when your partner has everything under their name, you have an allowance that’s unrealistic, or you aren’t allowed to work. Sexual abuse is obvious but you get forced to do things you don’t wish to do. Control and isolation is tough because your partner tries to isolate you from the rest of your loved ones and they try to control who you interact with. Most people don’t realize it but emotional abuse can be very devastating.”

Julie nods her head as tears stream down her face.

“I suffered the most from emotional abuse. My husband would constantly be excessively jealous over me. He would accuse me of infidelity yet I never once cheated on him. He would be the one who was so paranoid that he did it to me. He refuses to give me praise and appreciation. When he does want my attention that’s when he threatens to harm himself just to get me to notice. It’s a vicious cycle and it’s hard to break. So please just don’t make the assumption that physical abuse is the only form of domestic violence because there’s so much more to it than just that…”

Crystal sits there dumbfounded as she has no idea what to say. She can only think of all the ways that she had hurt Seleana. The way she tried to make her choose sides. The way she tried to get her attention by over the top antics. The signs were definitely there. Crystal’s biggest issue was the fact she is a major proponent of emotional abuse. She gets choked up as she looks at them. Crystal let’s tears run down her face and that is when Lisa walks over to her handing her a box of tissues.

“It’s okay to let it out… After all we are here to be a support group. It’s about learning and finding out ways to be strong. I don’t believe we caught both of your names…”

Todd just looks over at Crystal who takes he tissue wiping her tears away before forcing out a reply.

“My name is Chr…Crys….. Carmen… Carmen Martinez….This is my friend Todd sitting next to me. I do have a question and I guess it’s more for the abuser and not really about the victim. Why do people choose to commit domestic violence?! Where does it come from and what is it’s purpose…”

Lisa nods her head taking in the question as she replies as calmly as she can.

“No matter how you look at it domestic violence is always about control. It’s always about abusers using it as a way to gain power and control over the ones they are hurting. This type of violence can come from childhood trauma, or even witnessing domestic violence as a child. The abused don’t see it in the same way even though everybody else on the outside might simply want them to leave. However there are very difficult things that make it hard to just walk away…”

Lisa finishes speaking and Crystal just takes it all in. Todd however clears his throat as he looks at everyone in the room before speaking.

“Hello everyone my name is Todd Williams. I know this is Catalina’s and I’s first day at the group but I felt I just had to share some stuff. It really didn’t dawn on me until everything that all you had to say about domestic abuse and violence…”

Crystal raises her eyes as if to question what is he doing Lisa nods her head as she looks at him.

“It’s okay you are free to share here. That is what we are here for…”

Todd takes a deep breath as Crystal can only look at him in response.

“Anyway I can openly say that I have been a huge proponent of domestic abuse. These issues all range from the fact that I never got a chance to meet my mother. She died out of preeclampsia in giving birth to me. I was brought into this world with an older sister Jennifer who did nothing but hate me every single day. My father Roman couldn’t stand the sight of me. I was told that I look just like my mother and he hated me because of this. When he looked at me he could only see the woman I took away from him. I was called name after name. He hit me, he beat me, and it got bad to the point that he knew he was going to kill me. So at the age of 14 he sent me to live with my grandparents in Detroit… I…”

Todd begins to let tears run down his cheek as Crystal is actually taken back by what she sees. He is handed the tissue box as he speaks some more.

“Jennifer was also sent to live with me and it’s as if she was there to only torment me. It also didn’t help my father was a big time drug dealer so imagine being threatened at gunpoint as a teen…Detroit was definitely my escape and it’s where I tried to find my identity. It would be there where I met the love of my life in this girl named Christina Hilton but I gave her the nickname Crystal because of the way her eyes sparkled. She was one year younger than I but she truly was an angel. I loved everything about that girl. I felt I could share my heart with her and she would listen to my jokes along with every aspect of me. She was just there… She had dreams to become this big time softball pitcher for a big time college but I ruined all of that for her. I got her pregnant and I pretty much forced the troubles of my life on hers…”

Crystal opens her eyes in amazement never really hearing Todd speak like this before. She looks at him crossing her arms as he tries his best to continue speaking.

“So because of what I did she got pregnant at the age of 13. Having a kid at such an early age forced her to miss out on a promising future. She had to drop out of high school and instead of really trying to make her feel like she could graduate or get things together I basically told her that I would support her. I got her back. We eventually got married and that is when things got worse. I did nothing but create a toxic environment for her. I would beat her… I…”

Crystal lets tears flow from her eyes as she seems to be a ball of emotions as he keeps on sharing his heart.

“I would call her names. I got her into smoking weed, and drove her to alcohol. She had her own issues of being adopted by her aunt because she didn’t even know her father, and her biological mother was a brash and impulsive junkie and alcoholic. I know she told me that she didn’t want to be anything like her mother but I feel as if I drove her to become what she didn’t wish to become. Deep down as much as I suffered my abuse from a childhood I ended up becoming the man I hated. I became my father. I created a toxic environment for Crystal. When she asked me for a divorce as much as it pained me to let her go, I knew I had to because she deserved so much more. I really wish I could tell her how amazing she is. Now it pains me to see her now…”

Todd breaks down as he expresses more of his emotions.

“After how much abuse I put her through she has now become the abuser. The both of us got remarried to different spouses. As I see her with her spouse I know she has an amazing life. Things are absolutely well for her but I don’t want her to ruin what she has because of all of the abuse I put her through…”

Lisa nods her head as she looks at Todd.

“Don’t worry Todd. I know it pains you to go through this but you at least know you have a problem. One day you will be able to share this with her. I want you to do something for me, picture Crystal being in this room. If she was here looking right into her eyes tell her how you feel…”

Todd clears his throat nodding his head.

“I would tell her that I am sorry for what I put her through. Despite what I might have said to her or what the world might say. She is an amazing woman. She is a strong mother. She should be in a very happy place because she has an amazing wife who loves her. Whatever issues she has with our children we can conquer that together. She’s not in it alone. Even though we may not be married she is still my first love and I consider her my best friend. We are both grandparents now and it’s scary but we can get through it together. I am sorry for all of the pain Crystal and none of what you are going through is your fault. It’s all mine and you are now just passing along the same abuse that I passed onto you…”

Lisa looks at Todd as he uses more tissues to wipe his eyes.

“Beautiful… I know it was hard to get that. If Crystal was here I know she would forgive you…”

Everyone in the room begins to comfort Todd as best as they can and that is when Crystal just sits there for a few moments. She immediately stands up as she looks at everybody in the room. She snatches the black wig off of her head as she tosses it to the ground. She is a ball of emotions as tears steadily stream down her face.

“So that’s how it is?! Somebody speaks and you immediately think that the problems are going to go away just like that. You all don’t have any fucking clue how the world works. If you don’t know it by now my name is Crystal Hilton. You don’t get an apology overnight just because you asked for one. That’s not how the world works…”

Todd nods his head as he looks back at her and replies back.

“I know but more importantly you should know that as well. As much as you hurt Seleana or anybody else for that matter, and immediately ask for everything to go away with the snap of your fingers like Thanos snapping things out of existence… It takes time and…”

Crystal lets tears fall from out of her eyes as she can’t stop crying.

“No… I can’t accept your apology, and I just realize that I don’t have a problem! I am not an abuser. I can’t be an abuser… You know what FUCK ALL OF THIS I DON’T WANT TO HEAR THIS!!”

Crystal is hurt as she walks away from the group. Todd is left sitting there to cry to himself. Crystal walks out of the room and as soon as she does she slumps down against the wall and begins to cry. She does this for a few moments and it is at that moment when Lisa walks to where Crystal is with the tissue box.

“Are you okay Carmen?! Or would you prefer me to call you Crystal?!”

Crystal sobs as she continues to scream out loud to herself.

“I can’t believe I hurt her... I love Seleana she is my everything. I can’t think of a world without her. I separated from her three weeks ago to work on myself. I didn’t realize that I was a domestic abuser but after hearing just the small sample of what I heard. I know I have issues. I don’t want to hurt my loved ones… I want to be a better person…”

Lisa smiles.

“I know and that is what this group is about. We will help you get there. It won’t happen overnight Crystal but please just stay with the group so we can grow together. Maybe you would like some one on one sessions and I definitely could be an ear.”

“No…I mean yes… That sounds nice and I need it…”

Lisa nods her head.

“That’s always the hardest step. Admitting it and you have already done that three times by my count. You freed Seleana to better yourself. You chose to be here, and you are going to seek additional sessions. That’s a strong first step and you have nothing to be ashamed of… Come on why don’t we join the group. You have an ex-husband who just poured his heart out to you and he deserves to know that you appreciate it…”

The two of them walk back towards the group. They make their way into their chairs. Crystal looks right into Todd’s eyes as tears fall from out of her eyes.

“I forgive you Todd… I forgive you of what you did…”












So after a long wait it seems like we are finally here. I know a lot has been said leading up to this match but there’s no turning around from any of it at this point. It won’t be long until the three of us will walk into the World’s Most Famous Arena Madison Square Garden, and do battle for the biggest prize in all of SCW. The World Bombshell Championship is at stake and honestly the stakes couldn’t be any higher. The three of us are all warriors. We are women who wish to lay it all on the line to simply be the best of the best.

Ever since Roxi Johnson and I wrestled to a draw I have heard the words from both of my opponents. Roxi since that match has been vying for us to wrestle in a one on one match so that one contender could rise up to challenge Amber Ryan. In her eyes only the best should be more than ready to fight for the biggest prize in this business. In Amber’s eyes she just wanted this situation to be handled cleanly. To be frank she really doesn’t give a shit who she had to fight. In her eyes she knows that she is the best of the best so it’s just another chance to showcase why she is exactly in that position.

It’s just another day of business in her eyes and honestly who could blame her for feeling that way?! She damn sure has constantly proven time and time again that she is women’s wrestling and is the best that SCW has to offer. I know this triple threat match really wasn’t what she wanted. It presents a weird situation for her where she could lose her title without getting pinned. Definitely seems to be a messy situation if you ask me.

However there is one question on everybody’s mind and I know it might be a complex one. How does Crystal Zdunich about being able to compete in such a huge marquee match?! What is her position in the midst of all of this?!

Damn… That is complex and my mind has been so fucked up by what’s going on in my personal life. I won’t give you the same bullshit that I have given you all in the past because that’s just insanity. I have fucked up so many things over and over, and I know it becomes a tale of the same old song. If you want the raw complete truth I am thrilled that this match was made into a triple threat match. I am happy Mark Ward made that decision. If he didn’t I would have had to face Roxi Johnson in an eliminator match to prove who deserved to be here. If that was to happen I highly doubt I would have beaten her. She has been itching for this very moment for a year.

Waiting for the chance to get right back into the fray and to perhaps erase the results of the war that Amber and her put on last year. Roxi knows that Amber won that war last year but this could her chance to finally be that hero. This is her chance to liberate Amber of the championship and she can be at the top of the world as the best of the best. You have to respect that type of attitude. Roxi is a fighter to the end and she doesn’t hold back for anything.

It’s been a long time coming but I know the only thing on her mind is getting back the World Championship. She damn near has proven that she belongs here. She wants this more than I definitely do and has shown it. We might have fought to a draw to get here but she has gone the extra step and beaten Myra Rivers. Roxi is here and it is definitely well deserved. I know she is probably questioning my feelings on all of this and I am going to do something that is out of left field.

I am going to be honest with you Roxi… You are completely right about me. I know when it comes to dealing with me it always feels like you are walking on egg shells with me. You want to word things in a way that doesn’t necessarily offend me but you have your limits. I always wanted to deny it but you are right. I am a fucked up individual. I do have serious issues and you feel like you know me best. At the end of the day it’s always about the title, and not really about having the belt but the status that comes with it.

When I do things wrong I want you and the rest of the world to instantly turn a blind eye to it but that will never help me in the way that I want it too but it will only elad to me making the same mistakes over and over. It’s like I am a mouse trapped in a maze and the more I try to figure it out is the more I find myself stuck in the same loops. I just want to apologize because I have been a terrible friend to you. I put you through a lot of abuse and for that I wish one day you can accept my apology.

That was never my intentions. This past few weeks have been terrible for me, I am a complete wreck. I haven’t been eating, I haven’t been sleeping. I lost about ten pounds because I made the hardest choice I ever had to make in my life. I had to walk away from Seleana in order to better myself as a person. In these three weeks away from her I have now discovered what is the most important thing to me and no it’s not the title. As amazing as the title is and what it represents it’s only a material thing.

What is really important to me is the love I have for Seleana. My marriage is by far the most important thing to me and Seleana is definitely an angel. I will do anything in my power to keep that. Roxi you want the truth?!

We are supposed to be friends but as I looked at you over the years I couldn’t help but be jealous of everything that you are. You are popular, you are loved by almost everyone. I have always longed for what you and Keira have and would do anything to get that.

If could trade all of the accomplishments and the accolades to be in your position I definitely would because I know you have a peace of mind when you sleep. You two support one another through everything and it’s difficult to really be a cheerleader for anyone else including my own wife when I am personally not receiving the spoils.

That’s why I know I have issues I just had to work on. When I look over at Amber Ryan I see a woman who has definitely become a sensation in this company over the span of a year. Her record in SCW has been stunning and everybody wants to line up to face her. As much as I want to cry and throw hissy fits over the way I lost the title to her. The truth is she did win that title.

I was the one who was distracted and she took advantage, carpe diem, and did what she had to do in order to come out on top. Since that day she has been the best of the best. She has unified championships and has proven to be the woman to beat in this company. When it comes to being a bombshell in this company she is the one everybody targets. She is the one people want to face and I have to respect that.

She is going on a tear and is looking to shatter records with that title with the way she has had a vice grip on that championship. Amber I can’t help but admire what you have done. You have taken this company by storm and have even been able to rule this company as being a power couple with your husband as being top champs in this company.

That was something I could only dream of because I know that status would be so amazing. Now with this main event you are looking to cement that you truly are the best in this company and you will do whatever it takes to showcase why you are the woman to beat.

Bravo… I can’t question your tenacity nor will I even try too. However what I don’t appreciate is the fact that the both of you based of what I have heard or seen this past month are writing me off like I don’t belong here. Even this last week Alex Jones tried to tell me that I wasn’t good enough and that you would break me down.

As much as I might be going through, and as much as you wish to tell me I am a dark horse I find that to be a load of shit. If there’s one thing that I KNOW I have the ability to do it’s win in a huge match situation. I WILL win this match and I refuse to be considered a dark horse. This is about me just as much as it is about the both of you. Amber I know you and Roxi had an epic war. I know it would have been perfect to finally get your wish of a one on one match with the title on the line but I HAVE ALWAYS PROVEN TO BE THE MOST PASSIONATE WOMAN IN ALL OF SCW!!!!

I may not have the love and support of a Roxi Johnson or even of her wife for that matter but DAMN IT I BEAT ROXI TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP in 2020 and I just beat her wife KEIRA this year to win the title THIS YEAR. That proves that when it comes to competing I want it that much more.

Mikah but be acknowledged as the end all be all but there was also a part of me who had taken the title away from her and has beaten her on multiple occasions. There’s the woman who has held this title more than her, hell I have HELD THE MOST IN THIS ENTIRE COMPANY!

Yet you want to stand there and disrespect me?! You wish to tell me I am too focused on the status of being a champion and during our match when you took the title from me even claim that I just held it as a trinket.

You want honesty?! YES… I DI DO THAT… It was about the status. It was about being flashy, it was about wearing one piece suits and being the center of everything but it took you breaking me down to finally realize that.

It took me jumping to something else such as trying to claim Mixed tag team titles just so I could have something to hold onto too, something that could get people to talk about me again because it was always about the status, and never about the love of competition.

That has always been my biggest flaw and separating from Seleana helped me realize what I should be valuing the most in my life, and it also helped me figure out how to break the fucking cycle once and for all.

Amber Ryan I am going to do EVERYTHING in my power to beat you. Screw that I will BEAT you, and it’s not because I wish to be champion. That’s just honestly an extra perk from being in this match. The real reason why I wish to win is for a simple reason. It’s one that you can respect.

I WANT TO BE THE FUCKING BEST…

NO STRINGS, NOTHING FLASHY, NOTHING OVER THE TOP…

I want to prove I am the best and I don’t want there to be any doubt. Your title reign might have been more memorable than anything I have ever done here and I applaud that, but think of what my next reign will look like by beating you?!

It won’t be something that can be argued…

High Stakes it’s lights fucking out… The show isn’t over… If anything mine officially begins… Ciao…





 

   




 

Wednesday October 6th
Zdunich Mansion
Hollywood, Hills
Los Angeles, California
6:00 AM PDT

Crystal Zdunich was up bright and early. It had been a few days since the events of Throw Down had happened and the Afro-Mex beauty definitely wasn’t in the right state of mind. It had been three days since she had dropped the ball in the Rise of the Phoenix tournament but more importantly than that she had failed to protect her wife. Her own daughter Brittany Williams had not only decided to place her hands on her but she also attacked Seleana as well. As if that wasn’t enough her own best friend Stephanie had decided to jump in as well. Crystal felt empty inside. She didn’t say a word to anybody, and on top of that she wasn’t eating. Her family was desperately worried about her but Crystal didn’t care. The only thing on her mind was the fact that she failed to protect the person closest to her.

Everybody in the Zdunich mansion was asleep except that of Crystal Zdunich. She had made her way to the bathroom where she closed the door behind her. Her eyes shifted over to the scale. She drew in a long deep breath before she decided to step on it. After being on it for a few moments the screen on the scale read “110 lbs”. Her eyes moved to that of the mirror as she took a long glance at her reflection. Her reflection just grinned in return as it spoke to her.

Hilton: Look at you, you are a fucking wreck. You haven’t been eating and you lost five pounds because of this. You are nothing but one big fuck up. Had you just done things in only the way that perfection can deal with it. You wouldn’t be in this mess.

Crystal looked at the reflection as she quickly backed away. She shook her head as she started to snap back at her reflection.

Crystal: Shut up! You don’t know what you are talking about! I...I….

Hilton however just smiles rolling her eyes in return.

Hilton: I what, are you ready to finally admit that you need me?! I don’t know what it is about your undying need to feel accepted or acknowledged. Had you just done things my way this wouldn’t even be an issue right now. Your daughter would know that her place is being your daughter, on top of that Stephanie would fall right in line. Everything would be as they were meant to be. However your indecisiveness is just ripping you apart. Instead of being that dominant Bitch who knows she is the MAIN EVENT, the STAR, and the FEATURED ATTRACTION. You rather be content with being the has-been and it’s sickening. Just let me be free… Let me come out and play, and I promise this would all be settled.

Crystal however kept her eyes on her reflection. She took a deep breath as she screamed back at the top of her lungs.

Crystal: I don’t fucking need you! I never did need you. I will make things right and I will do it on my own merit. Yes things might suck but I will bounce back. I will figure out a way. I just can’t let you do WHAT you want to do. All you do is hurt people and the last time I caved into your desires all it got me was at war with my wife. I won’t ever hurt her again…

The arrogant Hilton in the mirror just shakes her head in return.

Hilton: Bitch you really think you won’t hurt her?! You may not have struck the blow this time but it was YOUR family that placed her hands on her. Your daughter beat the shit out of your wife! She is a reflection of who you are and at the end of the day it’s as if you delivered the blow yourself. You want to make things right but it’s all one big mess. Your wrestling career isn’t where it needs to be. You know it will only be a matter of time before everybody starts chanting #FREESELEANA like they always do on Social Media. They are going to drive it right into the fucking dirt. They are going to attack you over and over again. I get it though… YOU GOT IT ALL FIGURED OUT!!!!

Hilton laughs some more looking back at Crystal.

Hilton: You know what you need to do Christina… Just let me come out and play. Unleash your inner Crystal Hilton… Let the Rose Goddess out and we will show everyone why Perfection Never Fails. What other choice do you really have?! You want to seem weak.

Crystal sighs, closing her eyes before she confidently looks back at her reflection. She opens the medicine cabinet looking at all of her various medicines to treat her Dissociative Identity Disorder. The reflection can’t be seen at this point but it definitely can’t be heard.

Hilton: Bitch you think the Anti-Depressants, the Anti-Psychotics, and Anti-Anxiety medicine is going to make me go away?! You know I WILL never go away. No matter how much you try to numb it I will always be there… I will be there to pick up the wreckage of your fuck ups and make it right in my own way. I have been with you through five terrible divorces and if I have to have my way to make it a sixth then so be it! People will always respect Crystal Fucking Hilton!

Crystal however closes the cabinet as she keeps her eyes locked on the reflection. The tears stream down her face as she looks in the mirror.

Crystal: No… That’s where you are wrong. I don’t want to be Crystal Hilton anymore… I gave up being that woman three years ago when I got married. I am Christina Zdunich… I didn’t realize it until today but when I got married it no longer became about being what I selfishly wanted. It is about sacrifice and knowing that my wife and I are one…

Hilton; Oh! So that’s how it is… I guess since you have your Bitch you don’t really need me anymore. I have seen this tape play out so many times and it’s like you are a rat stuck in a maze. You are going to make the same mistake over and over again because that’s what you always tend to do. What makes this time any differently?!

Crystal let’s the tears escape her eyes as she just let’s them stream steadily down her face.

Crystal: Because this time I am willing to make the decision that I don’t want but the ONE that will protect her the most… I am going to let her go…

Hilton: Wait! Christina I know you better than that. Just let me do what I do best and…

Crystal: No...I have to do this and finally make things right…Relying on what YOU want has always been my problem and I have to do something different...

With that the reflection disappears and it is replaced with Crystal’s regular reflection. She could see she was a sobbing mess but this was all for the best. She had spent quite some time in the bathroom and by the time she got out an hour had passed. Crystal looked towards the bed and realized Seleana was gone. Perhaps it was better this way. Christina walked towards the closet where she had found a suitcase. She opens it and begins to stuff as much of her clothing as she could in there. She had to do this as quickly as possible. If she could pack and leave before Seleana returned it would have been for the best. Crystal continued to pack up her things and that is when she heard the door open to the bedroom. Crystal didn’t need to turn around to know who it was standing in the doorway. However, that is when she heard the strong Swedish accent of her wife.

Seleana: Estrellita?!

Crystal’s heart was torn in two. She really didn’t want to do this but she knew she had to do this. More tears rolled down her cheek. She loved hearing her wife trying to speak Spanish to her. It was adorable but she had to stand strong and not show any emotion. That is why she kept her back turned and continued to pack her things.

Seleana: Star?!

Crystal packed even more things as she didn’t say a word. She couldn’t showcase to Seleana how she had been feeling. She didn’t even want to tell her that she lost five pounds because of all of this. She just kept to herself in hopes that she could finish packing as quickly as possible.

Seleana: Chickie?!

Crystal quickly snaps back as she tries her best to hold up one finger. She sobs but she wipes her tears as she answers back with attitude in her voice.

Crystal: Could you just wait one FUCKING second?!

With that she was finally finished with packing. Seleana was taken back as Crystal grabbed her huge suitcase and walked right past her wife. She didn’t bother to acknowledge her as she made a beamline straight for the door. She passed by the other woman in their relationship Alexandra Caldwell who stood there with her arms folded.

Alex: Crystal what’s going on?!

Crystal is about inches away from the front door and it is at that moment that Seleana calls out to her.

Seleana: Star, would you please talk to us, talk to me? You haven’t said a word, you haven’t eaten anything in days. What is going on?!

Crystal throws the bag towards the door. She slowly turns around to face the two women. More tears begin to flow down her eyes as she gets right in Seleana’s face and looks up into her eyes.

Crystal: You want to know what is going on?! It’s the fact that I am a failure…

Seleana: You aren’t a failure. If it’s about the Rise of the Phoenix tournament you can turn things around. I believe in you. You always make things work and…

Crystal quickly cuts her off as she shakes her head.

Crystal: It has nothing to do with that! It’s the fact that all I ever seem to do is HURT YOU! If it’s not me directly it’s my family. I don’t have things in control and it really sucks. I appreciate the both of you so much. Even when I don’t believe in myself or the world is against me you two stand against the minority and you have my back. I love that more than either of you could fathom.

Alex: No doubt… We got your back because you are DAT GIRL

Crystal however shakes her head looking at the both of them.

Crystal: But since seeing the way the closest ones in my life turn on me and on you. Whether it’s my daughter, or going back to my sister Mariella. The fact doesn’t change that they are both extensions of me and it’s wrong for either of you to go through the cancer that is Crystal Zdunich, Lopez, Millar, Rose, or whatever I wish to be called this week. It still doesn’t change the fact that I am a bad influence for the both of you and you could both do so much better without me.

Seleana is taken back as she looks back at her wife.

Seleana: Christina…

Crystal: Don’t Christina me you know it’s the truth. Seleana you have so much potential. When we first met one another I will admit I just WANTED to have something because I couldn’t stand the thought of being alone after things didn’t go the way I wanted with Jonathan. When Stacy introduced you to me I saw someone who would have made a perfect trophy at my side. I saw a bounce back and perfect eye candy. It was convenient to have you by my side. I promised the two of us would have an amazing time together. I would teach you how to wrestle and we would conquer tag team wrestling together but it just seemed to be a fucking lie. I was only out for myself… Always did and always will be.

Seleana: Star…

Crystal: I am not done talking! You stood up for me countless times and all I did was stab you in the back because I just wanted to be World Champion and was willing to do whatever it took to get it. Even when you won a title I had to get involved because it benefitted my ego. It was all wrong and truthfully I am proud of who you have become. You are strong, courageous, and an amazing mother to our daughter.

Crystal turns her attention over to Alexandra.

Crystal: And you… You have always been that girl and I can’t help but notice you constantly tweeting you don’t know what happened to your wrestling career. At one point you were absolutely dominant but something caused you to change and you haven’t found your footing since then. I know what the problem is and I had been too selfish to say it because it never suited me. What changed is that you let me cause you to stray off the course. Had you focused less on me and more on what you need to do, you would be where you need to be.

Alex: What are you saying Crystal?!

Crystal let’s tears run down her cheek as she keeps her eyes locked on both of them.

Crystal: I am saying that after thinking about it for the past couple of days. I know people will be quick to say #FreeSeleana and truly I hated that saying. I hated seeing it all over my social media but thinking things through it is the right decision.

Crystal slides off her wedding band as she opens Seleana’s hand and places it inside of it.

Crystal: So I am making the right decision and I am going to free you from it all. Both of you are officially freed from having me in your lives. There’s no reason why I should constantly be a cancer in both of your lives. Seleana you especially have been on this ride for far too long and you deserve nothing but the best. I don’t want people to sit there and think you have Stockholm Syndrome because you chose to be by my side. So I am releasing the both of you. You are free to live your lives however you see fit and to do it being free of the drama that is Crystal. I will always love the both of you but I just don’t deserve either of you… Bye…

With that Christina grabs her suitcase as she keeps heading towards the front door. The two women are stunned as they watch Crystal walk out the door. Footsteps could be heard coming from the other room and it is that of her ten year old daughter Aurora.

Aurora: Mommy?!

Crystal however closes the door behind her as the tears overwhelm her. She couldn’t let them see the mess that she was. She knew they would be better without her. She opened up the doors to her 2021 pink Lamborghini and threw her bag inside. She was inches away from leaving the house when she heard crying. Crystal turned her attention and could see her daughter in law Sofia with baby Isabella in her hands. Isabella was crying loudly.

Sofia: Look Bella it’s Grandma…Maybe Grandma wants to hold you?!

Crystal however quickly closed the door as she pulled away. She left it all behind as she was freeing her entire family from the mess that was her. She had to figure out things on her own as she did about 80 down a quiet rich pedestrian area.

Las Vegas, Nevada
Golden Ring Casino

It had felt like forever since Crystal Zdunich had been at the Golden Ring Casino. Between becoming a first time Grandmother and trying to pursue after being a Grand Slam Champion Crystal didn’t spend that much time at the casino. Now that SCW was set to going on a huge tour away from the California and Nevada area now came the real part of trying to bring the customers into the casino. Believe it or not the casino was actually booming with business. Crystal using her position as Special Events Coordinator had arranged for the casino to be a host site for the Corona Virus Vaccination distribution. It was a fun filled event where people could be encouraged to receive the vaccine and in turn they could meet an SCW Superstar or Bombshell for free. The casino was filled with people as they all lined up to get a shot. Crystal held a clipboard in her hand as she tried her best to put a smile on her face as she stood on the line.

“That’s right everyone. Come get your jabs today. Protect yourself and your loved ones! Once you get your shot you can go about the casino and meet your favorite superstars and bombshells. This is your special gift as a thank you for doing your part to move the curve in the other direction!”

Crystal continued to force a smile from her lips as the line continued to grow. Mackenzie walked over to Crystal with a smirk on her face. She nodded her head giggling in return.

“I can’t believe you got all of these people to come. This place is just crawling with people!”

Charlotte slowly walks over as she nods her head as well.

“This line is nothing compared to how many people have lined up to see Despayre and Angel. That line is well out the door. I don’t know if the two of them will be here long enough to sign all of the autographs…”

Crystal just smiles as she looks back at the both of them.

“I am sure it will be just fine. They already promised to SIGN every autograph for whoever stood in their line. I guess that’s just how things are although to be honest I didn’t expect a teddy bear to draw so many fans. There are some big stars here including Krystal who brought her Roulette Championship. My wife Seleana is here along with Halo. Of course there’s the two of you, Dani behind the bar, and that doesn’t even include me. Yet that bear is able to draw this type of reaction?! That sounds ridiculous and…”

Charlotte quickly cuts her off as she places a hand on her shoulder before shaking her head.

“If I was you I wouldn’t make fun of that bear. You know messing with Despy really doesn’t end well for you. So don’t even focus on him. Just focus on how successful everything is going. Even if this is a free event for the public the people are spending tons of money on the tables, slots, and they are dropping a ton of money at the bar. You have a lot to be proud of… This is a success…”

Crystal doesn’t say much as she just shrugs her shoulders.

“I guess so… I just don’t feel it though. To be honest it’s hard for me to feel happy lately…”

Mackenzie crosses her arms together as she looks back at Crystal.

“You have got to be kidding me right now…You know I am not the pep talk type of person but just look around. This place is booming. Even in a time when SCW is about to open up and travel all across the company you have found a way to keep the fans coming here. You have brought the people and on top of that you are helping to save lives. What more could a person want from you?! You should be feeling happy… This was your idea and your event. So smile and laugh at up…”

Crystal stands there dumbfounded as she looks a Mackenzie. She slowly turns her attention over to Charlotte as she takes a breath.

“And how exactly am I supposed to just smile it up. I should have had a reason to celebrate today. Yes this event is good but I expected my first day back at the casino would have been for a happy occasion. Somewhere in my heart I expected to come back here as a Grand Slam Champion! I expected to have gold around my waist and it was going to be all rainbows and sunshine. Yet do you see any gold around my waist?! No… I took a huge lost at the Super Card. Tempest decimated me. As much as I can try to stand here and put on the façade like everything is okay. The reality is it’s all running through my head. The truth is it eats up at me… It brings me down and…”

Crystal just continues to stand there and vent out her frustrations as tears begin to stream down her face.

“None of you would understand…You just don’t get me… Nobody ever gets me and if I freaking react to ANYTHING people just come down on me. They judge me harder and…”

As Crystal is continuing to get over emotional the boss of the entire casino Daniel J Morgan is standing there. He shakes his head as he looks right into the eyes of the blue haired vixen.

“I think it’s best if you come to my office right now…”

Crystal just shakes her head sighing in return.

“No… I am not going to go to the…”

He raises his voice as he quickly cuts her off.

“I really wasn’t asking CHRISTINA… CRYSTAL… OR whatever in the bloody hell you wish to call yourself this week. It’s about time you and I had a chat, and this will be first and ONLY time I have this chat with you…”

Mackenzie and Charlotte just shake their heads not knowing what to make of any of it. Crystal knew that her emotions had gotten the best of her and now she had to deal with whatever Daniel had planned to do to her. She could only follow him as she had no idea at what was running through his head. Would he fire her?! Would he finally let her go from the Casino for the constant attitude outbursts and for not being there in a long time?! Crystal had so many different thoughts going through her head. Daniel led her throughout the casino past the waves of people waiting to meet the various SCW stars. People were smiling as they were handed their vaccination cards among other things. Finally the two of them had reached his office. She entered the room first and Daniel closed the door behind her. He motioned for her to take a seat and she did so. He sat in his huge office chair and faced her from behind his desk. There was silence between the both of them and she quickly tried to speak first.

“Wait Daniel before you do anything I can explain…”

Daniel however shook his head as he looked deep into her eyes.

“No… You always have this habit of sitting there and trying to explain your side of the story or attempt apologies and say how sorry you are for yourself. For the first time I just want you to sit down, shut up, and listen….”

Crystal leans back in her chair with a sigh as she just shakes her head in return as he continues to speak.

“Now what in the bloody hell is going on with you. The way you have been acting for the past year has been absolutely confusing. What is really eating at you? I can tell you personally that it’s not healthy by any means…”

Crystal looks back at him just shrugging her shoulders with a reply.

“I… I just can’t help but feel like I am one big failure and fuck up. No matter how much I try to do something I always fall flat on my face…”

Daniel looks deeper into her eyes as he answers with one firm word.

“BOLLOCKS…”

Crystal opens her eyes in amazement as she pushes the chair away and stands up screaming right into his face.

“What do you mean BOLLOCKS?! You just can’t say that to me. I sat here and told you what was wrong and all you can basically telling me in British form is Bullshit?! It’s not bullshit. No matter what I do is never enough. I have strived to best the best I can be but no matter what I do it never seems to be enough. I wanted to be a Grand Slam Champion and I put everything into trying to win the Mixed Tag Team Championships. I had the perfect partner and at the end of the day I just couldn’t deliver. I know people are going to look down at me and tell me I wasn’t good enough. They are going to tell me that I have weaseled my way into YET another title shot. They are going to remind me over and over again how I am not worthy and so on. So I am sorry if I stand up here and tell you I feel like shit. That’s just what’s eating me up…”

Crystal takes a deep breath as she shares her heart some more.

“On top of that I am sure the word will continuously remind me how much of an awful wife I am. How much of an awful person I am. How my social life is complete shit and I don’t measure up to anything. So yeah I do have a reason to feel down in the dumps. Now I am in the middle of this match with Roxi, Alicia, and Mercedes Vargas. I already know all of this will get thrown in my face. Roxi will probably tell me how I am over confident, cocky, and change too much to seek approval, Alicia will tell me how much of an awful wife I am, and Vargas will shove how she has accomplished everything and is a decorated champion. What do I have to show for any of it?! Nothing… It’s just another day in the life of being Crystal fucking Zdunich, another day of everyone shitting on me or even hating on the fact that my wife and I are involved in a three way relationship. So excuse me if I don’t feel like quite the super hero like Roxi, or the big tough wrestler like Alicia Lukas, or this big decorated overachiever that is Vargas. Maybe just maybe I am not like any of them…I am a failure and…”

Daniel keeps looking at Crystal as he once again says the same word that he said before.

“BOLLOCKS!”

“For the love of God Daniel why in the hell do you keep saying that same fucking word… It doesn’t make any sense!”

Daniel walks around the table and he stands right in front of Crystal. He looks down into her eyes before shaking his head at her.

“You want to know why I keep saying Bollocks over and over again. It’s because everything you are saying is a bunch of shit. That’s the reason why I wanted you in this office tonight. It’s because you go through this all the time. I know you probably had conversations with your wife and so many loved ones on what the real issue is. I am going to be the one to tell you what the problem is. At the end of the day the real issue in all of this is you!”

Crystal raises her eyes.

“What the fuck do you mean the issue is me?!”

Daniel takes a deep breath as he continues to speak.

“You are the issue… It’s not that you fight for approval too much. That doesn’t even matter. It’s the fact that at the end of the day YOU are your OWN WORST ENEMY… You will never be happy because you judge yourself too harshly. I know it probably stings when people call you out on shit but when you are beating yourself up it just makes it that much easier for all of them. It hurts because YOU believe that bunch of BOLLOCKS and make it to be true… You take to heart on what women like Mikah and Alicia Lukas say to you when they have NEVER LIKED YOU and probably never will. You get offended when CHRISTIAN talks down about you but he’s an asshole and never really liked you. The people that matter do build you up but you don’t listen to it. You want to be coddled. You want to be a baby and have them lift you up to make you feel better… And when that doesn’t pan out you think change is the way to get what you want as quickly as you want…”

Daniel waves his finger.

“However change isn’t something that can be forced on a person. It’s not something that you can expect to happen overnight. It takes time and it’s a gradual build. No amount of changing your name, your alignment, or even the colour of your hair dye will ever give you the justification you are looking for. This is where I am going to quote a famous English Playwright to you. You should know him or at least read about him in one of your literature classes. Williams Shakespeare wrote in one of his famous plays that “A Rose by Any Other Name Will Smell As Sweet”.”

Daniel smirks.

“What that means is it doesn’t really matter what you call something at the end of the day it will still be as how it was always meant to be. Now you want to compare yourself to everyone but the reality you should have never been trying to complete the Grand Slam by winning the Mixed Tag Team title to begin with. When have you ever worked well in a team?! That isn’t your strength and it never has been. I don’t care if you were trying to be in a category with Roxi, Mercedes, Mikah or even Amy fucking Marshall. That isn’t your strong suit. Your strong suit has ALWAYS been on you as an individual and you being the ONLY Five time World Champion showcases that fact. So for you to break a world title record already puts you in a league of your own. You really feel Roxi is a super hero and you don’t compare to that?!”

Daniel laughs.

“That’s funny considering when this virus first hit the world she didn’t practice any safety measures. You however set up this event to beat the curve. On top of that I have seen you try to rescue a woman in this very casino and even go as far as adopt her daughter when she passed away. If that isn’t heroic I don’t know what is. You shouldn’t feel the need to be anybody else but yourself. Listen to your heart and your own opinion. As long as you do that it shouldn’t matter what others think. Don’t beat yourself up because that’s only going to lead you to your own downfall. You are better than that. I mean just look at what you have accomplished since being at this hotel…”

Daniel smirks again as he walks over to the door and he opens it up. There are lines of people lined up.

“You are passionate about this. Charlotte and Mackenzie had their doubts about you being here. Everybody told me I should have my doubts in hiring you because the way you have handled being Mark’s personal assistant was a little crazy. However I gave you a chance and it’s because deep down I knew there was something special in you. I created a brand new position at this casino just for you and all of it has paid off. Business has increased and everything has been a success. We have given back to the community. We are now doing our part to beat this Virus, and that doesn’t even include how much money you bring in when you manage to waitress….It has always been top notch stuff. So if I can see all of these in you why can’t you?!”

Crystal shrugs her shoulders as she looks at the line of people before she turns her attention over to Daniel.

“I don’t know. I just never really thought about it in that way before. I guess I have been so focused on trying so hard to do everything to stand out I have forgotten what is really important…”

“Well you shouldn’t forget Crystal… You should know who you are. You also have an adopted daughter that is eyeing every single you do to stand out. You helped her fight off Leukemia and you saved her life. That is the epitome of a super hero and a good human being. You are also saving a bunch of lives with this vaccination event. It might seem like a small thing to these people where they can meet their favorite stars but it’s so much more than that. So I want to ask you a simple question…”

Crystal nods her head as she looks back at him.

“Okay you can fire away…”

“How would you want for people to remember the legacy you left behind? Do you want for them to get caught up in you being your own undoing and your own worst enemy?! Or do you wish for them to focus on all of the good you have done. That is what you need to figure out. I truly feel once you finally start believing in yourself more and worrying less about what others think you will fix all of your problems. Nothing anybody says will matter because deep down in your heart you will know what truth is and what’s not. Don’t compare yourself to others…. Just become the best Crystal Zdunich that you know you can be…”

Crystal takes in everything that Daniel just said as she looks at everybody getting their shot. She didn’t see it that way at first but after a second look she truly was that of a super hero. She was saving thousands of potential lives and she was making the world a much better place for her immune compromised daughter. She was indeed a strong mother and finally she smiled as she actually believed in it. She knew she couldn’t beat herself up any more. Her daughter and her granddaughter both counted on her and it was time to really do what was best for them. She quickly ran out to the line putting a huge grin on her face as she looked at everybody.

“Come one and come all!!! Come get your jabs and let’s make the world a much better place. Meet your favorite superstars and let’s just have an amazing time shall we?!”

The fans all cheered excitedly as they did just that. Some surrounded Crystal with sharpie markers wanting her to sign various replica championships among other things. It’s on this very happy image that we slowly fade out on.















On Camera
Disney World


The cameras come into focus and as they do we are taken to the happiest place in the world Disney World. People in the background could be seen smiling with huge grins on their faces. Some people could be seen running towards the Space Mountain ride while others are quickly heading off towards the direction of Splash Mountain. Crystal however could be seen in a Disney Princess dress. To be more precise she is dressed like that of Cinderella and is standing in the entry way of her castle. The camera pans in on her face and she doesn’t seem to be smiling. Instead she has a serious expression on her face as she looks deeply into the lens of the camera.

“So here we are on the very first stop of this big SCW tour. The road to get to High Stakes officially begins, and today we happen to be at what many might consider the happiest place in the world. We are at Disney World and a lot of people have many different reasons to smile while being here. For some they can meet their favorite Disney characters buy an overpriced autograph book and cherish in the smiles that these characters brought to life bring. For others it’s a chance to celebrate huge title wins and shout the cliché I AM GOING TO DISNEY WORLD SPEECH… There are so many different reasons for being here…”

Crystal takes a deep breath as she begins to speak some more.

“However for me it’s not about smiling because this place doesn’t bring great memories for me. Believe it or not it was on June 10th of 2018 in which I came to this place as the newly crowned World Bombshell Champion. It was my third reign as champion and I did the unthinkable and unified the Internet Championship with the World Championship. Mikah demanded her rematch and two weeks after winning my title I quickly lost it right back. I felt it shattered a huge part of my heart. Even though I walked into that event as the unified champion and my daughter Brittany at the time had just won the Roulette Championship two weeks prior. I felt like I let her down… I felt empty and it started a huge downward spiral from that point on…”

Crystal shrugs her shoulders again sighing as she pours her heart some more.

“I lost to Mikah again and again. I couldn’t seem to get back into the hunt. I got married a month later in that same year but honestly I couldn’t be happy because I felt like I was missing a part of myself. 8 months later my wife won the championship because I PUT the title on her. I was willing to stab her in the back to get what I want and it didn’t get me anywhere. I broke her heart and to be honest since losing to Mikah in 2018 it would be about two years before I even touched gold at all… Two years of fighting, clawing, and scratching my way just to get a shot. I am forever grateful to the shots I do get and I won’t complain about them. As I stand here at Disney World I now have the chance to have my huge storybook ending when I lost my title here two years ago. I can win at DISNEY WORLD and on top of that I can march my way to competing at the biggest show of the year fighting in the main event at the world’s most famous arena. Who wouldn’t want to be in the main event at Madison Square Garden?! That’s a dream come true if I do say so myself wouldn’t you agree?!”

Crystal nods her head as she continues to speak some more.

“However to get what I want I need to get past three other women. Three other women will be doing everything in their power to fight for that same right. I know for a fact it won’t be easy. I know in the wrestling business we are supposed to stand in front of this camera and tell the world why we are going to beat the others and how we are better than each other. To be honest I rather not go down that road this time around because it’s redundant and repetitive. Instead I am going to just tell you all why I deserve this moment and the others simply do not…”

Crystal keeps that serious expression on her face as she speaks some more.

“First and foremost you have one of my best friends in this match in the form of Roxi Johnson. She is a super hero to so many. She warms the hearts of so many people every single Wednesday by releasing her #WCW list in which she names just about everyone as a sign of being kind. She is coming off of a huge win in teaming with her wife in Keira Johnson and as soon as she won she was quick to tweet out that she was happy to win but it’s basically back to business. It is back to going after gold and that is the current task at hand. I can honestly respect that. It’s all about the drive and dedication for her. To be honest I doubt I wouldn’t be in this company if it wasn’t for Roxi Johnson. I will admit sometimes I do feel a lack of self-confidence and I wish she would claim me as a BFF on her Wednesday post along with a picture of me. I do want that type of attention and I want the approval. I know she might think it’s a case of trying to constantly seek approval and redemption over and over again…

I will own that and that’s my own shortcoming, but Roxi doesn’t deserve to win this match. As much as she might wish to try to tell everybody she is about making things right and proving she can win a title shot. This is also the same woman who in her own way is more title crazy than I am. When she first came back to this company her first match back was being HANDED a title match in a main event at a Super Card. She could have declined it even if management forced it on her. After all just by accepting it you basically just cut the line of those WHO were here. This is also the same women who at one point argued with management about receiving a Roulette Championship match just so she could complete her Grand Slam crown. Sure I might have done it as well in trying to win a tag team title but I didn’t go all the way down from World Champion level of a wrestler to the entry level division of this company. I stayed at the top and fought on. I saw the BIGGEST threat on the roster in Tempest and a multi time champion in AJM and took my shot….

It’s a little different from trying to beat a rookie in Kate Steele failing to beat her and ultimately taking the title off of Veronica Taylor. That is nothing to be proud of. Also last year Roxi was fired up to compete for an Internet Championship match and they were held by three dominant champions consecutively in Kate, Myra, and Amber. Roxi could have had the chance to compete for that title and I remember seeing on Twitter Roxi basically saying that’s not what she is after?! How does any of that make sense?! So it’s okay to go all the way DOWN to compete for a Roulette Championship just to claim a Grand Slam Achievement but it’s not okay to compete for the Internet Title?!”

Crystal shrugs her shoulders.

“That’s not right and that’s not heroic. If anything that makes you sound sort of like a brat… One who just happens to wear a cape and claim they are a hero. Now you could chase after the title in order to be the best but I feel like it’s more than just that. I feel you just want it to continue on with this feud with Amber and pick up the pieces. Newsflash though babe… The truth is you lost that feud. You lost two matches to one. It’s old news and on top of that you lost the World title to me last year. You lost the Queen of the Day to me. As a matter of fact besides that Chamber match when it really matters and all the cards are on the line you can’t beat me. You just had a chance at the title at the end of last year and you couldn’t beat your wife. So why should anyone believe you can beat Amber now?! No offence but you had your shot and you just don’t deserve it. You can’t pick and choose what type of title opportunities you want. You just need to take the hand dealt to you. That’s what a hero is truly all about, making the most of what they are given! Sorry Roxi but on this night that’s not you!”

Crystal nods her head as she continues to speak.

“Of course you also have Alicia Lukas in the mix. There’s no doubt in my mind she is indeed one of the best in this company. She has shattered the record for longest reign with the Bombshell Championship. She broke Mikah’s record and has really cemented her legacy here. You can’t question what she is about and I actually applaud that. However in her eyes the only thing that she ever sees in me is how much of a cancer I am to this company. In her heart she sees me as being beneath her. She continuously runs my social and private life into the ground. She constantly shits on me as a champion. When Keira beat her she was bitching up a storm and waiting for the moment to cry that it was a fluke. When I beat Keira she was quick to act disgusted that I wasn’t worthy of anything. She will tell you that all I ever do is weasel my way into title opportunities however the ONLY time I ever did that was stabbing my wife in the back. You want to know where that got me?! To be honest it didn’t do well for me, my wife ending up winning a championship because of it and when it was time for that big four way match you did manage to win…

It wasn’t by pinning the champion though because THAT was my WIFE and the two of us were beating each other senseless outside of the ring. You beat Dani Weston and managed to win the title. As much as you shit on me you really shouldn’t. Because of me you were able to win a feud of the year award. That summer was carried by what WE did together. So selling me short makes you look stupid. So yes the one time I weaseled into an opportunity I didn’t get the job done. However if you look at all the times I actually worked my ass off and EARNED MY SHOTS I delivered. I took home the gold. You can’t say shit… I beat the woman YOU COULDN’T BEAT!!! So what does that say for you?! But go on sell me short. Make fun of me…

As egotistical as I might seem when things don’t pan out I might feel hurt but I dust myself off and I move onward. You are the one trying to portray yourself as leaving, or beating down women just to prove a point. You are also the first person to Bitch and threaten to leave. Hypocrites don’t deserve to get the chance to main event the biggest show of the year. Besides you won Queen For A Day and you took your shot and you failed! So what difference is a few months later going. You got beat and it’s time for somebody else to get a shot. You don’t deserve it and at Climax Control I am going to prove exactly why you don’t…”

Crystal seems confused as she shakes her head.

“Then of course there’s Mercedes Vargas. She is indeed a decorated SCW Champion. I am not talking about SCU but purely SCW here. She has a long laundry list of things that she has accomplished. If there has been a championship you can bet your bottom dollar that she has that accomplishment next to her name. She is indeed one of the best of the best. As she would point out she has the most wins. As she would point out she has done it all. As she would point out even though people will sit there and call her old. At the age of forty she showcases that she stands the test of time and continues to persevere…

Honestly the two of us at one point in our lives were really close friends with one another. In another company we were tag team champions and she has beaten my ass across different companies around the world. However when it comes to SCW the only time I can honestly recall her beating me is when she smashed a pumpkin on my head a while ago. Hell if I could recall wasn’t it just last year where the two of us went to war at Summer XXXtreme and I came out ahead?! As great as Vargas might try to remind all of you how great she is. The reality she is a legend in her own mind. It’s not a case of what she has accomplished, it’s a matter of what has she done LATELY that I wish to ask.

The truth is nothing. It’s not like she wrestled for a tag team championship or something like that. No she is just coming off losing the right to become the Internet Champion and before that didn’t she drop the ball to Bella Madison. I don’t know how Mercedes Vargas has even found her way into a match like this. Everybody knows she doesn’t deserve it. Hell even she should know that she doesn’t deserve it. She hasn’t been relevant for a very long time. Just her being in this match just seems like she is being thrown to the wolves and it will only be a matter of time before she gets devoured. If Vargas couldn’t even overcome winning the Internet Championship what makes me think she has what it takes to push ahead in this match?!”

Crystal shakes her head with a wide grin.

“Nothing… I doubt she can pull through. On that basis alone she doesn’t deserve to be in this spot. There is someone in this match who is much more deserving and I know for a fact that woman will be the one who will pull ahead in the end…”

Crystal waves her finger in the air as she nods her head to the camera.

“In case you might be wondering I AM THAT WOMAN! I deserve that moment. This match is befitting of somebody like me. You might be pondering why am I standing here in a Cinderella dress and to be honest it’s simple when you think about it. My career could be symbolized like that of Cinderella. It has been a true rags to riches story. When I first got to this company I competed under a mask. Nobody knew my real identity. However as I got comfortable I took that mask off and I showcased who I really was. I worked hard and I have managed to win every single thing I put my mind on.

I know there are haters and honestly I have done everything in my power to win them over. I have changed myself and my identity about a dozen times because I WANTED THEIR ACCEPTANCE. However as I stand here I realized that I don’t need redemption… I never NEEDED it. I was trying to do everything to run away from myself but as long as I stand here and continue to be my own worst enemy I won’t ever accomplish anything. That’s why I can honestly say that I have put all of the tales of redemption officially behind me. I am happy with whom I am and I KNOW WHO I AM…

I refuse to be identified as the woman who has had a mess of a social and personal life. As hurtful as all of those things might be considering the way people constantly try to run it to the ground with me over and over. The reality is when I step into the ring none of that really matters…”

Crystal chuckles as she speaks some more.

“If anything the fact that I managed to accomplish as much as I have with all of the personal issues showcases how driven I am for this business. You want to know who THE FUCK I AM?! YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO I REALLY AM… You can sit there and call me by all of my marriage names. You can call me by all of my monikers or make fun of every shade of hair dye, but beneath all of the bullshit the fact is that a “rose by any other name would still be as sweet.” It doesn’t matter WHAT you call me but at the end of the day I am the ONLY FIVE TIME WORLD CHAMPION! Nobody else can say that, nobody else has that attached to their name. While everybody else might wish to try to fight for a fourth reign and play catch up I am already the standard and you need to get on my level. Sure I didn’t win the tag team title and yes that stings a little. I am not a good team player, I was meant for solo success and considering I have done it the best showcases why my words should be taken seriously.

You want to know why else I deserve that match with Amber?! I am used to being in the spotlight I do whatever it takes to get there and I will bust my ass to have my name in the grand marquee. I know I am the featured attraction and the main event so might as well keep showing off what everybody already knows right?!”

Crystal takes a breath as she continues to speak.

“However it’s JUST not about that! The real reason why I feel I deserve this shot more than the rest of you is Amber didn’t get the definitive win that she desired with me. Yes she won the belt but deep down in her heart she knows that because of the way I stuck my nose in Despy’s Blast From The Past match his father got involved which gave Amber the opening she needed to deliver the final nail in the coffin. Since that match I never got a rematch to compete for what I lost. Many people usually get a rematch when they lose a title. Myra got one after losing the Internet title, hell Roxi got one in that triple threat match after losing to me. Keira got one when I beat her. However I lost my title and I didn’t get anything. So it’s a case of getting what I am owed…

But I get it… It would wrong to stand here and feel entitled and that’s why EARNING this shot makes it even better. It will make it better to silence the critics once and for all on how good I am. On top of that I can gain the ability to end the year in the same exact way with how it started and that’s with me on the top winning the championship. When I fought Amber I got beside myself. I was focused too much on being flashy and wearing the one piece suits using the World Championship like a trinket. I was focused too much on being a showboat and being cocky in front of my Immune Compromised daughter. I was more concerned with the status of being the champion but not actually BEING THE CHAMPION and that’s where things need to be different.

I want to fight Amber without the bullshit of tearing apart a motorcycle or ruining her tournament spot. I don’t want to threaten using London Underground just to make me stronger. I just want to show her that I am the best fucking Bombshell in this company. Nothing less and nothing more! So in this eventual second showdown we can lay it all down in the heart of the ring WITHOUT any interruptions to see who the best of the best really is…”

Crystal looks deep into the cameras.

“That championship around her shoulder is my Glass Slipper and it’s time for me to go back to the castle to get what is best fit for me. Amber might think she can walk in my shoes but NOBODY can walk in them but me. I been through some shit but I am still here. I might not be a SUPER HERO, I might not have had the type of year a GEORGIA PEACH HAD, and I am damn sure not as decorated as Vargas… I am however Crystal Zdunich… I am the best bombshell in this company and at Climax Control I prove what everybody already knows. Sunday it all becomes CRYSTAL clear. There won’t be a fairy Godmother helping me along the way. it will just my passion that pushes me on. So with that consider the show over… It’s time to roll the credits on the rest of the competition once and for all. It’s time for me to take my place… Watch Amber because Cinderella will get her glass slipper and there’s no place to rectify my entire career than at Disney World… I will see you soon… I promise you that much…”

With that Crystal shows off that one of her glass slippers is missing and it’s on that note that we fade out on a serious expression from her.

Rehabilitation
San Diego, California
Medical Center

Prudence Steele seemed anxious as she looked over at her girlfriend Courtney Pierce. The two of them sat in the waiting room of a medical center. It wasn’t that long before a woman holding a clipboard walked into the waiting room. She had a grin on her face as she looked at everybody in the room.

“Courtney Pierce… The doctor will see you now. Please follow me to the exam room…”

With that being said Ruby rose up to her feet as she stood by her girlfriend. Courtney was slow in her movements. It took her some time to make it up to her feet. Once she was on a vertical stance it was at that moment that she slowly used the crutches to head towards the exam room. Ruby followed closely behind making sure to hold her girlfriend’s back just in case Courtney lost her balance. The two of them eventually made their way to the exam room where Courtney sat on the patient’s chair. Prudence paced around for a few moments as the woman smiled at the two of them in return.

“The doctor will be in shortly. Just please wait here…”

With that she walked out of the room leaving the two love birds alone with one another. Ruby couldn’t help but sigh as she looked over at her girlfriend struggle to sit on the chair. Ruby immediately crossed her arms together as she gave Courtney a very sincere look.

“Is there everything okay babe?!”

Courtney however just shrugged her shoulders as she kept her eyes locked on Ruby before shaking her head at her.

“Yes babe things are just fine. You know you don’t have to ask me about my health every single day. Things are going just fine. I know I will get better and you need to believe in that as well…”

Ruby just crosses her arms before sighing in return.

“I understand that. It’s just I feel like I am to blame for all of this. I should have been there for you. If I was there Alicia wouldn’t have destroyed your ankle and the two of us both would be doing what we love together. We would be on the road together and we would be doing everything in our power to finally go out there and become a World Champion. Isn’t what all of this is all about?! Trying to advance to the next level and really make something of ourselves…”

Courtney nods her head just sighing in return.

“Yes babe and like I said things will be fine. You can’t hold yourself responsible for what happened to me though. I was the one who was foolish enough to go out to that ring and actually believe in Alicia. After everything she has accomplished for SCW I truly thought I would give her a standing ovation for what she has done. It would have been a nice sight to see her go out on a high note. I never expected for her to do that to me. You can’t put the blame on you though. This one is on me…”

Courtney just sighs in return as she looks at her ankle.

“I feel so stupid. I should have known better. I was on the cusp of really developing into something really good in SCW and shortly after winning the Blast From The Past I injured my ankle in training. Now after finally doing everything in my power to return I end up injuring the same ankle because I was naïve… I am the foolish one…”

Courtney just looks at her ankle as Ruby quickly shakes her head with a sigh.

“Bollocks… I won’t allow you to put any blame on yourself either. You don’t deserve being in here. I don’t care how much of an ego you might have had. Nobody deserves to be in the hospital. Putting somebody in here intentionally is just as bad and it doesn’t sit well with me…”

Courtney nods her head.

“I know babe but you also can’t hold yourself responsible for what might have happened. Let’s just forget it even happened…”

Ruby shakes her head as she screams out at the top of her lungs.

“OUTRAGEOUS!!! That’s exactly what I think of that comment. I can’t forget what happened… This was supposed to be our year. We were finally going to emerge as a strong couple and you were going to even go as far as be there for me as a manager. Alicia took that away before we even had a chance to live out our fantasy. Now I feel alone and I don’t know what to do with myself…”

Courtney looks over at Ruby as she just shrugs her shoulders back at her.

“This is when you take the moment to step up and you really do everything in your power to become who you were meant to be. So just go out there and actually accomplish it…You didn’t need me to get to where you are in the wrestling world. As a matter of fact I remember a woman who came to Jet City South looking to become the next biggest thing. In spite of having continuous issues with me she rose above it all and won herself a tournament…”

Ruby snaps back.

“That might be true in the beginning but I always had somebody pushing for me along the way. I had a huge network of people. I don’t know if I would have gotten anywhere without the Steele name attached to me. On top of that I was trained by that of Mikah, and I came from Kris Ryans school on top of all of that. Now I don’t have any of that. I went to the school the other day and it seems to be nothing but one big ghost town. Nobody is really there anymore. When I went there it was an absolute ghost town. Everybody from the school has disappeared. Mikah seems like she wants to move to Hawaii. Nobody knows where Kris has gone. Things are going terrible with my cousin Kate ever since Teddy decided to cheat on her. She has practically disappeared from SCW since losing the Mixed Tag Team Titles. I feel like the only thing left around is you… You are the ONLY thing that I have and I won’t lose you…”

Courtney looks back at Ruby.

“You won’t lose me.. I won’t ever let that happen. I promise you that much Ruby. You just need to focus on doing what you need to do. I will get better and the two of us will have our happy ending…”

Ruby nods her head in return as she smirks in return.

“And I would love that… At the end of the day all I need is you, and all we need is each other…As long as we have that… That’s all that matters…”

The two smirk at one another and it isn’t that long before the doctor walks into the room. He is holding a folder in his hand as he glances at the both of them.

“Ms. Pierce…”

“Yes doctor?!”

Ruby stands there in anticipation waiting to hear what the doctor has to say.

“I just want to say I have looked over the results of your X-Ray and it seems like your ankle is healing really nicely. It’s been then expected. I think you might be ready to go through some physical therapy so we can get you back on your feet and you can get back to a level of normalcy.”

Courtney is all smiles as she looks over at Ruby with a wide grin on her lips.

“See babe I told you that everything is going to be just fine. We will be able to get through this together. Things will get back to normal and when they do we can worry about what’s the next step in our lives together…”

The doctor leaves the room as he just looks back at the both of them.

“I will leave you two… Anyway Miss Pierce… I am going to write you a referral for some physical therapy and I will check in with you in a few months to see how well your ankle is recovering from everything…”

With that Ruby just stands there as she keeps her eyes locked on her girlfriend.

“Wait what do you mean what’s next for us?!”

Courtney nods her head taking a long deep breath.

“You said you feel alone… Maybe it’s time we actually settle down so you don’t have to feel that you are alone anymore… Maybe the two of us should focus on maybe marriage at some point…”

Ruby raises her eyes in amazement as she looks back at Courtney as she really didn’t know what to say.




















It looks like it won’t be long until Violent Conduct is upon us. I am going to go on the record and personally tell everyone that my SCW career hasn’t really gone the way that I had hoped for it to go. When I first came to SCW I was filled with so much life. I was super energetic and I was merely just a member of a girls only punk band. I was in the shadows as the little cousin of Kate Steele and I enjoyed being in that position. I know people would either get super excited or overly annoyed every single time I channeled my inner Kimber Benton and constantly screamed the words Outrageous over and over again.

That’s just my personality and I love to have fun. However what I didn’t expect is constantly seeing Kate Wrestle would inspire me to wish to do the same. I not only got to the point of being a fan but I wanted to be so much more than that. I wanted to get involved and I too wanted to step into the ring so I could become a wrestler.

Nobody really believed in me. I don’t think Kate even believed in me either. So instead of trying to wait for her approval I found a wrestling school and I quickly enrolled into it to perfect my craft. Little did I know that the person who ended up training me would be known as the best of the best to have ever stepped foot into an SCW ring for the bombshells!

In the beginning it was a slow steady climb to becoming great but I found my place in the ring and through hard work and dedication I emerged to being way better than anybody expected. I fought through the ranks and I won myself the Blast From The Past Tournament. That in itself is absolutely outrageous. It’s fantastic and I know firsthand that I have truly arrived.

I know after winning that tournament that is when things didn’t go in the way that I had hoped for them to go. That’s when my career started on a downward spiral. I felt like there was nothing anymore for me. I had no passion. I really didn’t care. I was just left with nothing.

On top of that everything that I have come to know seemed to be slipping through the cracks. I became absolutely shattered and everybody was abandoning me. Jet City South had all of the potential to be such an amazing school. We had everything. However in the blink of an eye it all seemed to be gone. Kris Ryans just flat out disappeared. I have no idea about Coby Quik. Mikah seems happy with potentially moving to Hawaii, and after losing the mixed tag team titles. My cousin Kate doesn’t even seem to be around anymore. It also doesn’t help that she and Teddy are having major issues.

All that was left for me was Courtney Pierce. We had each other and I know that I love her more than anybody could imagine. At Summer XXXtreme I was happy to see how giddy she was on that cruise. It was all good spirits around. I had planned for her to become my manager and we could truly be that amazing couple.

However the unthinkable happened and that is when Alicia Lukas got involved. She broke my girlfriend’s ankle. In the span of a few moments she ended her livelihood and more importantly than that she shattered my heart. I felt like I have lost so much since being in SCW.

However I am not going to sit around and just sit by doing nothing knowing that she took away the only thing I had left going for me in this company. That is when I knew I had to do something, and I am personally telling Alicia that she isn’t going to get away with any of this.

I plan to shatter her in the same way she broke my heart too pieces. I am going to send her ass through a glass table and it’s going to feel amazing doing so.

I don’t give a bloody hell that she is the woman who has held the Bombshell Championship the longest. I don’t care that she has an amazing pedigree of achievements and things that she has accomplished.

Honestly I know I might be a little outmatched but I don’t care. I plan to get revenge and when push comes to shove I will fuck her up. So you better be ready Alicia because I am going to fucking end you.

Los Angeles, California   
Brayden Hilton Apartment
July 26th

It had been eight days since Summer XXXtreme had come and gone. Brayden Hilton was still an undefeated wrestler and for a man who was only two matches into his career that was an amazing feat. However he personally didn’t give a shit about his career as he had bigger things t worry about. On the Sun Princess his wife Sofia had to go into an emergency labor and a beautiful premature baby girl Isabella Valentina Hilton was born. After spending a lot of time in the hospital Isabella was to finally come home. Brayden smiled as he glanced over at his tiny daughter resting in a bassinet. She was sleeping peacefully. Sofia stood next to Brayden as the two of them just kept looking at the little girl. Brayden smiled as he turned his attention to his wife.

“This is honestly the most amazing thing in the world. She is beautiful in every single way. I can’t believe that the two of us really created this…”

Sofia nodded her head as she hugged her husband tightly.

“It’s a miracle and this is the biggest blessing in the world. Who would have known that in such a dark time in the world we would give birth to something so beautiful?! She truly is our rainbow baby and miracles do come true…”

Brayden smiles as he keeps his eyes on the little girl.

“Yeah…I… I just have honestly no clue on what to do now…”

Sofia is taken back as she looks back at her husband.

“What do you mean?!”

Brayden sighs as he keeps his eyes locked on the baby.

“I mean where do I even go from here. I don’t know what it’s like to be a father because I really didn’t have one growing up. Yes I was adopted and I excelled in the midst of adversity but I didn’t have that strong male figure in my life. My adopted father passed away when I was 12 and for those crucial years of my life I just had to find my own way. I wouldn’t even know where to begin…”

Sofia holds her husband as tightly as she can before she takes a long deep breath.

“You shouldn’t have to feel that way. Even if you had a father in your life it’s not like it would matter when it comes to your relationship with Isabella. Everybody’s parental style is different. At the age of 19 do you think I saw myself getting married at the beginning of this year and being pregnant?! IT felt like yesterday when we met one another in our introduction to Freshman Class. The two of us competed for the best grades and I always enjoyed your enthusiasm and seeing how hard you worked out on the baseball field. I am personally not ready for any of this… However there is one thing that I do know to be true…”

Sofia smiles as she holds the hand of Brayden as she continues to smile.

“There’s nobody else I would rather share this moment with. You are the love of my life. You are my husband and this is a journey that we can figure out together. After all what do you always say?! You are Academic, Athletic, and An Achiever. You have a 4.6 GPA non-weighed of course. If you can rise to the top in every circumstance I know that being a parent won’t be any different. You truly are the best of the best and I believe in you…”

Brayden shrugs his shoulders as he keeps his eyes locked on the baby.

“That may be true or even some shit that I spew when I get into the wrestling ring. I just feel that this is different though. I have a different vibe about all of this…I…”

Before he can say anything else there is a knock on the door. He opens his eyes in amazement as he glances back at his wife.

“Who the hell is that?!”

Sofia just nods her head as she looks back at Brayden.

“Well I know there are a lot of people who want to visit the baby and I arranged for different people to visit at different times. I know you probably have a lot of questions about being a father and well… Who better to ask than the man who is your biological father… I hope you aren’t mad at me…”

Brayden shrugs his shoulders.

“Why would I be mad it’s not like I hate the man. He just wasn’t there in my life. I can’t fault him for that… It’s whatever I will play nice… I guess I will go answer the door…”

With that Brayden walks over to the door. He swings it open and just shakes his head as he looks at three figures standing on the opposite side. He could see a little one year old running inside and Todd Williams current wife Hope quickly runs inside.

“Xavier come back here… Don’t run off from me…”

Hope runs inside of the home as Todd Williams just stands there with a wicked grin on his lips. He just smiles as he looks right at Brayden.

“Hey son… Are you going to let your pops inside?! I can’t wait to see what my granddaughter looks like…”

Brayden just sighs before he just watches his father walk inside of the home. Brayden keeps his eyes on him as he walks over to the bassinet with a wicked grin on his lips.

“Damn she’s a cutie… She definitely must get this from the Williams side… I can’t believe I am a grandpa. If you told me that I won’t be a grandpa at the age of 34 I definitely would say you are full of shit. Yet here we are and the little miracle is right in front of us. I don’t know what to say…”

Brayden however keeps his arms crossed as he glares daggers right into the eyes of his dad.
“You don’t get to waltz in here and act like everything is fine. That’s not how the world works especially coming from you. I fucking hate you and everything you stand for. You weren’t there for me in my life so you just don’t claim to be the child’s grandfather. As far as I am concerned my father died when I was 12 years old. My adopted dad was more of a man than you ever will be!”

Todd just looks at Brayden as he sighs in return. Hope doesn’t know what to say as she glances back over at T-Will.

“Perhaps it was a mistake to come here… We appreciate the hospitality but I think we should go…”

Todd however waves his hand as he quickly shakes his head in return.

“That won’t be necessary. I can respect how Bray feels. He has a right to feel this way. I think what would be best is if the two of us go for a ride. It seems like we have some serious catching up to do. We need to gain an understanding and the only way we can do that is if the two of us go for a private ride with one another. It’s a lot to take in so why don’t we go son?!”

Bray shakes his head as he crosses his arms.

“Listen here dipshit. What part did you not get when I said you aren’t a fucking father?! It may have been your sperm that created me but that doesn’t make you a dad by any means. If you feel like this is going to appease you in some form or fashion let’s just get this shit over with. It’s not like you can help me with anything…”

Sofia however looks over at her husband as she sighs.

“Babe just give him a chance… Think about what Isabella would want. She wouldn’t want you to hate your biological family. Hear him out and just see what he’s been going through… It can’t all be that bad…”

“Whatever… Let’s just go…”

With that Todd and Brayden leave the apartment. They slowly walk towards Todd’s black Maserati. They get inside and T-Will quickly turns the engine on as he speeds out of the parking lot and onto the highway. He has been driving for about a half hour and there are no words spoken between the two of them. They are in the middle of traffic and it’s at that moment that Todd looks over at his son and speaks to him.

“I know I have a bad reputation but I feel I just need to express myself. Can I just say from the bottom of my heart that I am sorry for everything, and especially sorry for not being in your life… I know it must have been really hard to come up through the system but you need to believe me when I say I had nothing to do with any of that. To be honest I didn’t even know I had a son…”

Bray turns his attention to his father as he quickly shakes his head in disgust.

“Bullshit… You just weren’t man enough to take care of me. It’s no different from you sleeping with your wife’s best friend at the time in Stephanie and getting her pregnant. That’s all you have ever seemed to do. You are an abusive womanizer. You use them and when you have no use for them you move on to something different. Had things been fine between you and mom I am sure the two of you would have still been together…”

Todd opens his eyes in amazement as he shrugs his shoulders getting off on an exit.

“Do you really think that is how things went?! Look I might not be the best man in the world. I am definitely so much far from the ideal father of the year. However you need to understand that I have been through my fair share of shit as well. I may not have come through the system but I was raised by a father who hated the mere sight of me. My mother had preeclampsia. She barely got through giving birth to your aunt Jennifer and then 14 months later it was time to give birth to me. Despite everything even though the doctors told her that she may not pull through childbirth do you think she cared about any of that?!”

Todd quickly shakes his head as a tear falls from his cheek.

“No… She rather me have a life instead of her having her own. She gave me a chance at life. However it felt more like hell because she passed away after giving birth to me and my father hated me every single day of my life. Imagine being raised by the biggest drug dealer in all of the east coast of the United States. He couldn’t stand the sight of me. Jenny tried desperately to fight for me but the more the man looked at me he could honestly only see my mother. Destiny Williams was everything to my father Roman. Sometimes he would put a gun to my head and he constantly threatened me. So instead of pulling the trigger he sent me to live with my grandparents in Detroit. I had a hard time being in Detroit. Being raised by a strong grandmother just felt weird but I didn’t let it bother me. I pulled through and I guess that’s where I met your mother…”

Todd takes a deep breath as he continues to speak.

“Your mother was everything to me but I guess in the end we were just toxic for one another. I got her pregnant at a very young age. It’s like we needed each other. I don’t know what happened when she went into labor. I wasn’t even there. All I know is when I get there she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl in Brittany. I didn’t even know she had twins. I don’t know why she didn’t tell me the truth. What I do know is I was nowhere near perfect but I did everything I could for Brittany. I was there for her no matter what she went through. If anything it was Crystal who left her responsibility as a mother. She was too fucking busy trying to figure out her identity by visiting her biological father in Mexico and searching for so many answers. It was her who let Jennifer fill in the void as the female figure in Brittany’s life. I love Crystal to death but she never learned how to be an adult and wasn’t ready…”

Todd shrugs his shoulders.

“Maybe that is why she changes so much. She is still trying to live out her childhood. She wants to be wild and wants to do things her way. I however was there for Brittany, just like I am there for Xavier. I need to work on being a better dad for Tyler and that’s my fault but one thing I do know is I am here right now Bray. Not only will I be a father to you but I will be an awesome grandpa because I take care of my own. I refuse to be anything like the piece of shit that is my father…”

Brayden however offers a quick snarky remark in return.

“That’s funny considering you basically replaced your dad. Now you run the drug business. Now you are the big man with the fake corporation and using it as a front to push the business. Sorry if I can’t find a good thing about you, and I know that everything out of your mouth is pure shit. I can’t let that type of lifestyle come into the vicinity of my daughter. You can preach what type of father you think you might be but I find it hard to believe you. You have a really bad reputation and I just don’t buy anything you are saying…”

Todd opens his eyes as he pulls down a familiar street. Brayden looks at his father with a shrug.

“Where the hell are we driving too anyway?!”

Todd smirks.

“We are going to see your mother… Because honestly you have a lot of questions and she is the only one that can answer them. I am tired of everybody pointing the finger at me like I am this big bad guy. Yes I am bad and I definitely have done my share of bad stuff but being a father isn’t one of them. You want to know why you were brought into the system. Why don’t we go ask her…”

Todd finally pulls in front of a huge mansion in Hollywood Hills. He gets out of the car and Brayden just sits there with a disappointed expression on his face. He sighs looking at the door.

“Nah… I don’t think any of that is really necessary…”

Todd raises his eyes in disgust.

“Why not, you wanted answers right… Let’s just go get them and be done with it! Come on we are going to settle this once and for all.”

With that Todd begins to storm towards the door and Brayden quickly runs to meet him at the door. He begins to ring the doorbell furiously. They wait for a few moments and it isn’t long until the red haired Crystal Zdunich answers the door. She stands there looking at Todd as she begins to cross her arms.

“What the hell do you want?!”

Todd just shakes his head before he turns his attention over to Brayden.

“Actually I am not the reason why we are here today. It seems there is some serious confusion when it comes to our son. I rather him know the truth so let’s be completely blunt and honest Crystal. Why in the fuck did you not tell me about Brayden when he was born. The sooner we get everything out in the open the sooner we can get to me having a relationship with the granddaughter…”

Brayden just stands there as he looks over at his mom just shrugs her shoulders. She doesn’t even know what to say as she begins to stutter.

“Look i… I honestly don’t know what to say Bray…”

Brayden however looks at his mother as he just shakes his head.

“You don’t have to say anything… I get it mom… You just didn’t want me. You didn’t want anything to do with me. “

Brayden finished his sentence before glancing at both of his parents. That is when it finally dawned on him that this was the first time that he saw both of his parents at the same exact time. Crystal was shaken up as she replied back to him.

“That’s not true…”

Brayden talks over her though.

“Don’t fucking bullshit me… I know when you are lying to me mom. Nobody just leaves America to go to fucking Mexico when they had a baby daughter behind. You can come up with every single lie under the sun but I know a lie when I see it...”

Crystal looks directly into her son’s eyes before taking a long deep breath and looking back at Todd.

“To be honest I know it is so many years ago but I had my reasons for leaving. Perhaps a part of me was trying to escape from the harsh reality of knowing that I would have a little girl to depend on me. That didn’t sit well on my conscience and in addition knowing that I had given you up. It was too much to handle. I kept having twins a secret If I had my way I personally would have rather given up the both of you. However I couldn’t go into delivery and not return back to Todd with nothing. He always had a heart set out to have a little girl. So I wanted to make sure he had what he wanted…”

Todd rolls his eyes.

“You could have been honest… Yes I wanted a girl and it’s funny as it stands Brittany is my only daughter and I have three other sons, but I am sure we could have figured out a way Crystal. It just seemed as soon as you gave birth you just shut everybody else out. If you needed something I was right there for you and I would have had your back…It still doesn’t explain why you left… Why you went to Mexico and what happened afterwards…”

“Yeah mom… That’s the thing I am having a hard time understanding. If you could shed some light at that it would be easier for me…”

Brayden says as he looks at his mother. Crystal begins to let some tears run down her cheek as she shakes her head.

“Honestly… I owe you both so many explanations. The reason why I went to Mexico in the first place had nothing to do with my finding my father or being close to that family. Hell you think I really gave a crap about being a Lopez. The truth was that I simply wanted to get away from everything. I didn’t want to be around anybody or anything. I was afraid of being a mother. Even though I still had Brittany the thought of scaring her scared me. The thought of really being tied down to Todd made me even more afraid…”

Brayden looks over at Crystal as he sighs.

“Mom…”

Crystal continues to share her heart.

“I wasn’t ready to be in that role. I am sorry for all of the pain I caused. I know you can try to hate Todd for what he may not have done but if there is one thing I can honestly say through everything he was and is a good father. I know he might try to portray himself as one of the biggest assholes in the wrestling business but he will be there for his kids. He has always been there for Brittany. The way he is raising his son Xavier is really top notch. I think the only reason why he hasn’t been in Tyler Sullivan’s life is for the simple fact that whenever he sees Stephanie he realizes how much he hurt me by sleeping with her. Though he shouldn’t hold a grudge against her because honestly I am the one to blame…”

Brayden quickly shakes his head.

“Mom I know you probably want to hold a lot of this as being your fault but you honestly can’t accept it all. That’s too much. Whatever the reason was for you running away you did what you could…”

Crystal however shakes her head as she gives Brayden a sincere look.

“No… To be honest I am the only one at fault here. The reality is I was the one who was the awful parent. I tormented Brittany. I was very abusive and I let the alcoholic addiction get the better of me. On top of that I am the one who caused Todd to divorce from me. He did the right thing for the most part but it was I who was scared. I cheated on him when I met Jonathan, and after Jonathan came Seleana, and Alexandra. It’s a never ending cycle for me, and at the same time I am just an awful individual. You might think I have been strong for Brittany but in reality all I have really done was created a miniature me. That’s nothing to be proud of by any means. Brittany deserved better than that. You never had to go through any of that so that’s always a good thing right?!”

Brayden hugs his mom.

“Like Mom you really don’t have to explain yourself. I fully understand what you went through…”

“Brayden… You don’t though… The truth is as much as I tried to jump from thing to thing, along with person to person. As I stand here right now I have come to the conclusion that as much as I try to change there is one thing that is still on my mind. One feeling that I can’t really shake off and it is the fact that I still love Todd… I love you Todd and I just can’t get over you…”

Todd raises his eyes as he looks back at Crystal.

“Wait what?!”

Brayden nods his head.

“Well truth be told you never do forget your first true love…”

“I know… And it’s these urges that have caused me to go through a mental breakdown. I really don’t know what I want but I know I can’t hurt Seleana. She has done way too much for me and I have to be there for her. However I know I should also get these feelings out of my head. That’s why I haven’t checked on my granddaughter. I don’t want to be the same mess that I was for all of my kids to that little angel. I don’t want to be that woman…”

Todd looks at her sighing.

“Look… I have feelings for you as well. A part of my heart will always love you Crystal but right now you have Seleana and I have Hope. I have Xavier and you have Aurora. We can’t do that to them…”

Brayden looks at both of them as he pulls them in for a group hug.

“I know you both probably went through some shit, and as I stand here I am starting to learn more about the both of you. You both did what you could do in order to survive. I am proud of the both of you, and without you I wouldn’t even exist right now. Why don’t you both just promise to be there for me and please have a strong influence in my daughter’s life! I don’t know how to go about this father thing but I know I can learn from the both of you. It’s taken some serious soul searching but I personally want to say I forgive the both of you… Please help me be a good father…”

Todd looks at his son smirking.

“I got you son…”

Crystal finally smiles.

“And I am with you son… I may not have been there for you…”

Todd chimes in.

“We may not have been there but we will be there now as you go through this stage of adulthood in your life…”

With that Brayden just smiles as he looks at both of his parents. Things definitely were going really good and they could only get better from here.











So what do we have here?! It seems like the chosen one is once again booked or yet another show. Can I personally just say from the bottom of my heart that both Mark Ward and Christian Underwood can both suck a good dick or maybe they can fuck themselves?!

Either or would suffice to be honest. Christian can go die in a fire with a Scott and Mark can get some type of disease from his favorite Mikah… Either or it’s not like I pay attention to any of that shit because at the end of the day there’s only one person that matters to SCW and you are hearing him speak right now. I am the past, present, and definitely the future of this business. I am going to go on a fucking limb and state that I am GOING to be your most hated of the year, I will be your future star of the year, and hopefully they can bring back best newcomer because I plan to take that shit as well…

I am Brayden Hilton and if you don’t know by now I am ACADEMIC, ATHLETIC, AND AN ACHIEVER… In other words I am better than you but you should have expected that from a man who has a 4.6 GPA that is non-weighed of course. Since I came to this company I have felt the disrespect towards me has been through the fucking roof. When people hear the name Hilton they immediately jump to the worst conclusion. They don’t even want to give me a chance.

Yet I am forcing people to take people to take notice… I am handling my business. I did so against the likes of Shane… I put down a Hall of Famer in Goth…. I have definitely proved that I can handle myself. So seeing as I am picking up steam and am becoming an overnight sensation in just my third match in I am definitely getting the same treatment that my father’s best friend Teddy got. I don’t mean when Teddy decided to be a family man and he actually went on to win the Internet Championship or even proved himself to be competent enough to make it to the semi-finals of the Blast From The Past…

I am talking about when he was gaining some steam in the company. When people were riding his nuts because he was becoming popular as being a hated individual to the wrestling fans! He was only like 3 matches in and didn’t even crack into the Roulette division when he was being shoved into a match to go against Fenris.

If memory serves me right Teddy didn’t even go about doing a promo for the match because it was bullshit. Am I supposed to believe that was going to be a match that would make Teddy look good in any single way?! Of course not because when something is self-made or actually getting over on its own Christian feels the need to try to stick his nose where it doesn’t belong.

He has to add his two cents or try to derail something magical from staying on the tracks. So here we are now. You have the best third generation… That’s right THIRD GENERATION so whoever keeps trying to build me as a second generation star can go shove it.

You have a special generational talent on your roster. One who is meant for big things and even though I am in only my third match it seems like the remnants of Christian’s shitty booking ways have gotten to Mark Ward during Christian’s vacation. I am getting thrown right into the Lions Den because I have to face the almighty Fenris.

Oh no… Not Fenris...

I am about to piss in my pants just like Uncle Teddy did against J2H…

I should go announce my retirement like Alicia Lukas was going to do on a cruise ship… But then again I would be full of shit…

Maybe just maybe I should get a pillow with a nice comforter. I will lay down on my back in the middle of the ring so that Christian can get off on his vacation screaming OH MY GOSH FENRIS HUMBLED BRAYDEN…

I know that’s probably the feeling here but to be honest I only have to say go fuck that noise because you think I give a flying fuck if I have to step in the ring with a Wolf?! They say a Lion is the king of the jungle and if you read the biblical story didn’t a man named Daniel step into the Lion’s Den?! What happened when he was forced to go in there…

Not a damn thing happened. The Lions didn’t do shit because he was protected and had favor with his God. Guess what?! I don’t know if you realized this or not but I have favor too. I have the blessing of coming from an amazing bloodline. A bloodline that often does stupid shit, says stupid shit, and can change on a dime. They may not be taken serious but that doesn’t stop them from setting the record for most World Championships in this company point fucking blank and making you respect them.

That’s the type of legacy I have to live up too. I know that management has something against my mother and seeing a male figure descend from her bloodline means Christian can just have his way by tormenting her and leaving a notebook for Mark to screw me over. It’s a bunch of bullshit but there is one thing you probably didn’t expect to come from me. It’s the fact that I plan to clap back. I have a huge fucking mouth and I am to buy into the hype that Fenris is as scary as he seems.

Like let’s been real here… Why exactly do people make him out to be greater than what he honestly is?!

I did my research and he’s been a fluke. Sure he might have won a Blast From The Past Tournament. However it’s not like he went about and beat the real champion. Kris Ryans had relinquished the championship beforehand so Fenris entire legacy was established by beating sorry ass Ty West… That is his entire rise to fame in a nutshell. It’s not like he beat one of the best of the best. He beat somebody who got lucky by winning an ultimate X match who had to fight in two matches that night.

That’s not skill that just means Fenris got lucky. Sure some can get all excited because they can own Caleb Storms over and over again. Stuff like that doesn’t mean shit. Fenris loses the title to Austin James Mercer and he just couldn’t get it back since then…

I mean he did try to get his championship back… He dropped the ball in a big elimination match with Ben Jordan. He even dropped the ball in a one on one rematch with Ben Jordan. It just shows that Fenris really wasn’t the spot he was in…

Then again we have always seen people get stomped out in one sided beat downs. It’s like wanting to see someone like Jessie Salco win the World Championship, or Despy beat J2H, or Fenris beat Ben Jordan… As much as you might wish to cheer for something like that to happen. It just never goes that way or probably never well. Some people honestly aren’t ready for prime time and Fenris isn’t one of them.

So here we are now and Fenris gets to step in the ring with this 20 year old kid. At first when I saw this match on the card I immediately thought it was a burial waiting to happen. Fenris might roll right over me and it be something for him to smile about. However if you look closer the real burial that will happen is what’s going to happen when I humiliate Fenris in California.

Truthfully I have the most to gain from a match such as this. If Fenris loses people will question his credibility as a superstar. They might ponder if he is good enough and how could he lose to such a rookie. On top of that even if he wins by the skin of his teeth they will still question who this Brayden kid is. They will know that I am good and I am on the rise.

It’s a lot of pressure on him. For me the sky is the limit and I plan to get mine out of this match. If I lose I still get momentum and with a win my stock just goes even higher. Since I am here and it’s such a huge marquee matchup I might as well bring everything I got to bring Fenris down. After all I am in this to win it and I won’t let him get in my way. As far as I am concerned Fenris is but a statistic, a hash mark in my win column.

Fenris might be a man of honor and integrity. He is a man who shows respect to those who earned it and is a great competitor. He is one who has excellent striking ability and can catch you with a submission out of nowhere. On paper that sounds absolutely fantastic. He is a great athlete and I will give him props on that.

However you think I give a shit about any of that?! The truth is none of that even matters because everything that Fenris might be passionate about I am the complete opposite. To me this isn’t about being honorable.

I am entering the match with only one thing on my mind, and that’s to win by any means necessary. I have the ultimate wild card on my side and that’s my lovely twin sister Brittany. She is there to make sure that I win… If rules need to bent in my favor so be it. So it’s not the fact that you have to worry about me Fenris. What you should be concerned about is where is Brittany at all times. That is a huge factor that you probably weren’t counting on.

Anyway the two of us will go to battle but only one of us shall walk away with a W. I am planning for that to be me… You have to get through me and my sister to get what you want. At the end of the day I know it’s going to be me…

Win lose or draw it’s not like I give a fuck anyway. At the end of the day I am the future and I will be respected in one way or another. Go ahead and hate… I love the feeling of being the most hated man in the locker room. That is the vibe I live for. Yes I am a Hilton and I am damn proud of it…. It’s the only thing that matters. When our match is over and done with, you will be nothing more than an afterthought.

See you soon loser…
