Krystal had done it! She had not only won the Triple Threat Match at Into the Void X, but she had dethroned Royal Purple to become the new Bombshell Roulette Champion! Knowing that this left her with a large target on her back Krystal made a statement of intent at Climax Control 301 calling out three Bombshells who had came out of the woodwork, Royal Purple’s other challenger Violet Amelia Holt, Char Kwan and Andrea Hernandez, to stake their claim to the title and providing commentary for a Triple Threat Roulette Rules Match between Char, Candy and Maki which was ultimately won by Maki after she pinned Char.
But this week, it was back to business for the Aussie Bombshell as she was facing her first test as champion, a non-title match against Bella Madison that was opening Climax Control 302! Bella had come close to being in the Triple Threat Match at Into the Void X only to have that snatched away from her by Violet and now that she was back from injury and had Mercedes Vargas in her sights, Bella was looking to make amends, can Krystal win?

Did last night really happen?
It didn’t take me long to find the answer to that question as the newly won SCW Bombshell Roulette Championship was laying on my bedside table as I woke up that morning, hangover and all! I don’t remember much from the Into the Void X afterparty at the Gold Coast Casino, well, beyond heading straight to the bar to celebrate my win and buying everyone a drink, and no I don’t want to think about the state of my wallet right now!
“Hungover as all hell? Check.” I muttered to myself as I grabbed some headache pills and took them. “Wallet’s a lot lighter than it was before I attended the afterparty? Check.” I added before glancing down at the title and grinning broadly. “Would I do it all over again if it meant winning this? Hell yes, that’s a check.” I added before yawning and heading straight to the shower.

After I got washed, fixed my hair and got dressed I wasted little time in getting my breakfast ready and now that a couple of hours had passed, I was getting my stream set up for later.
“Game is set to Mass Effect Legendary Edition, rating is set to 18+.” I muttered to myself as I went over everything. “LGTBQA+ tag added, I should be all set for the Mass Effect 1 finale later.” I added before I heard a knock at the door. “I hope that isn’t Kirsty.” I muttered to myself before I left my computer chair to go answer the door, it wasn’t Kirsty but rather it was someone else from my past who had come back into my life, and it was someone I was a lot happier to see.
“Hey Charlotte!” Makayla greeted me with a grin before we shared a hug, fortunately the quarantine had gone well and Makayla had been allowed to leave early, once we broke the hug, I let my ex-girlfriend inside the house, and she joined me in the living room. “I guess there’s no way around it, congrats on winning your first title in SCW.” Makayla added as I sat next to her and set my phone on the arm rest of the sofa.
“Thanks Makayla.” I thanked her before shifting my weight. “How are you finding America so far?” I asked and Makayla shrugged.
“Still getting used to the different time zone, not to mention the change in weather.” Makayla admitted as she brushed some hair over her shoulder. “Aside from that, most of the locals have been friendly but if I get mistaken for English one more time, I’m going to scream!”
“Trust me, I went through all of that and more when I first moved to America, I was almost tempted to get a “I come from The Land Down Under, not the place that used to send prisoners to the Land Down Under” badge to attach to my shirts.” I admitted with a laugh and, well, me and Makayla were close to each other, as in physically and whilst I did notice I didn’t mind. “And then I realized that there was no way such a badge would be legible.”
“Yeah, at that point you may as well just hang a sign around your neck.” Makayla responded with a grin before sighing. “Charlotte, do you ever wonder what if?”
“What if my dad wasn’t a total piece of shit? What if Andrea Hernandez wasn’t the biggest attention whore in wrestling?” I asked with a look of confusing on my face and Makayla shook her head. “Just saying Maka, you are going to have to be a lot more specific than that.”
“Okay, yeah, that was on me.” Makayla admitted as she shook her head. “I meant between us, what if I had been able to move to the US with you back in 2016? Would our relationship continue? Would we still drift apart as lovers?”
“Well for one thing, I don’t think I would’ve discovered my bi-sexuality if you had, I’d probably still consider myself to be a lesbian.” I admitted with a shrug before Makayla leaned in closer. “Do you want to pick up where we left off?”
“Like you, I dated other people after we broke up but nothing stuck.” Makayla admitted and without thinking, I removed my shoes and lay down on my side off the couch. “The real question is, do you want to restart our relationship?”
“Does this answer your question?” I asked before I kissed Makayla passionately and she quickly returned the kiss, what started as a kiss quickly escalated into a full blown make-out session which nearly escalated into us having sex for the first time in years, so what spoiled the mood? My phone ringing just as Makayla went to remove my top. “You’ve got to be kidding me.” I sighed in annoyance before Makayla got off me and I answered my phone, it was one of the Go Gym students calling to congratulate me on my title win at the worst possible time and after I thanked Adrienne I hung up. “Don’t get me wrong, the current Go Gym class is a great bunch of kids, but they have the worst timing ever.”
“Guessing you mean that in a social context and not a training context?” Makayla asked and I nodded in response. “So, that means we’re back together, right?” Makayla asked and I responded by kissing her again.
“Definitely.” I responded with a grin after I broke the kiss. “And we are definitely finishing what we just started later, preferably in my bedroom.”
“Look forward to it.” Makayla responded with a grin before returning the kiss.

What is it about the post Supercard break weeks that seem to just fly by?
Well, that’s what happened to the last week at least! But just because I’m the new Bombshell Roulette Champion doesn’t mean I’m skimming on my duties at the Go Gym and today I’ve been helping Gabriel. Ari and Fenris train the students, but now that the day was winding down, I found myself being called into Gabriel’s office.
I’d almost be tempted to make a joke about being called into the Principle’s office but the grin on Gabriel’s face spoils that a bit.
“I would’ve liked to congratulate you last week but we both know how busy we’ve been.” Gabriel stated before inviting me to take a seat and I did so. “So let me be the first owner of the Go Gym to congratulate you on your first title win!”
“Thanks, and hopefully, first of many!” I responded with a grin as I patted my newly won title that was resting over my shoulder. “What can I say? Now that I’ve had a taste of championship gold, I don’t want to stop eating!”
“It is addicting, isn’t it?” Gabriel nodded in agreement and I grinned in response. “Just be careful to not follow Jessie Salco’s path.”
“Please, I may be friends with Jessie, but her career is practically a cautionary tale about letting success go to your head.” I pointed out and Gabriel nodded in agreement. “Besides, if I was going to let success go to my head, it would’ve been when I was made Twitch Partner last September.”
“True enough I suppose.” Gabriel admitted with a nod. “Off course, your main concern now is your first challenger.”
“If you’ve seen my Twitter feed, you’ll know that I’ve already had Char Kwan and Andrea Hernandez try to jump to the front of the que.” I responded before shifting my weight. “Christian already shot down Andrea for questioning his booking but that still leaves Char, and we have unfinished business.”
“And Char is in that Triple Threat against Candy and Maki.” Gabriel nodded as he folded his arms. “Do you plan to interfere?”
“No, as tempting as it would be to give Char a taste of her own medicine, I don’t want to snoop to her level.” I responded as I shook my head and Gabriel nodded in understanding. “But I may see about joining commentary for the match, it’s not a Number One Contender’s Match but it’s a match that could have implications for me and my title.”
“Indeed, a match like that could affect the rankings significantly.” Gabriel nodded in response before I stood up. “That is all for today Charlotte, you clearly have a lot on your plate over the next few weeks but just remember that it will get easier.” Gabriel added before I went to leave his office. “And please tell Makayla that I said hello, from what I’ve heard, you’ve restarted your relationship with her.”
“I will, and honestly it was like the relationship never ended.” I nodded before I left Gabriel’s office and the Go Gym for the day.
Backstage at Climax Control 301, Las Vegas, Nevada
Sunday the 4th of June 2021, 21:00pm
That was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done in my life.
Yes, I’m talking about my first promo as a champion because it’s exactly as I said during the opening of the promo, past champions always made it look so easy, but I got it done and now I can focus on my first defence, whenever that is and whoever it’ll be against.
And if tonight’s Triple Threat Match was any indication my first challenger will probably be Maki, but stranger things have happened.
“People call your first title defence the first major hurdle for a new champion.” I commented as I walked up to Ari in the catering area, and she looked up with a grin on her face. “If you ask me, cutting your first promo as a new champion is even harder, especially since this is my first title reign in SCW!”
“You know what? I don’t think there’s many who’d disagree with that.” Ariana nodded in agreement before I sat down opposite her. “Don’t you have your own locker room though? Being the new champ and all.”
“Oh, I do, but I don’t want to spend all my time there.” I responded with a nod before setting my title down on the table. “Saying that, I’m wondering how long it’ll be before my first match as champion, regardless of if it’s a title defence or not.”
“I remember wondering the same thing when I won the Pride Tag Team Titles with Carter, and again after Alex Rush took Carter’s place.” Ari nodded in agreement before a stage hand ran up to us. “I don’t think you’ll be waiting much longer.” Ari commented as she motioned to the stage hand I looked up, he handed me next week’s card and I looked over it.
“You are right on the money Ari! I’ve got the opening match against Bella Madison.” I commented with a nod as I looked at the match. “Non-title but if Bella picks up the win, she could use that as a way to get a title shot against me.”
“Especially after she came so close to winning her qualifying match.” Ari nodded in agreement before my eyes went as wide as dinner plates. “What’s up? Is Char Kwan the Special Guest Ref for the match?”
“Worse, the other Roulette Champ, Alex Jones? He’s defending the title next week.” I responded before handing the card over to her. “AGAINST THE TROLL!”
“WHAT?!” Ari asked with a look of disbelief on her face before reading the card and seeing the match herself. “How does losing three matches in a row and getting beat up repeatedly qualify you for a title match? And why not Caleb? He wasn’t submitted at Into the Void X!”
“Yeah, at least THAT would’ve made more sense!” I responded as I threw my hands up in disbelief. “I swear, this match had better be Christian’s way of making nice to The Troll’s mom!” I grunted in annoyance as I messaged my forehead. “Seriously, how did that total sweetheart spawn The Troll?! And no, I don’t want to hear the Birds and the Bees speech!”
“I think that’ll be a mystery for the ages.” Ari commented as she shook her head. “At least we have the rest of the show to look forward too.”
“Here fucking here!” I nodded before we watched the rest of the show.

*promo time*
At least this’ll be easier than my promo at Climax Control 301, right?
“If you had told me at the beginning of the last cycle that I’d be ending it as the new Bombshell Roulette Champion, I would’ve called you crazy but here we are in the new cycle and would you look at that…….” I trailed off before holding picking up the Bombshell Roulette Championship. “I am the new Bombshell Roulette Champion! Now it didn’t take long for potential challengers to come out of the woodwork and try to stake their claim to a title match against me but there was one person who was quiet throughout all of it, her name? Bella Madison!”
I said before hoisting my title over my shoulder.
“Now whilst I had a great cycle last month, the same can’t be said for Bella, having victory snatched away from her in her qualifying match, winning the opening match at Climax Control 300 only to get injured by Mercedes Vargas later in the night and being forced to miss out on the Queen for a Day Match at Into the Void X, personally speaking if that happened to me then I’d have one hell of a chip on my shoulder and now that Bella’s been cleared for action, I’m serving as her latest opponent!”
This will be good.
“Some might be tempted to say that Bella is SCW’s biggest choke artist and list the incidents I just mentioned as solid proof of this so called fact, the way I see it? Bella was just the unfortunate victim of terrible luck in that Triple Threat Match and, well, Mercedes’s victim at Climax Control 300 but here’s the real question Bella, what are you planning to do about it? How do you plan to bounce back from those setbacks in this non-title match against me? By beating me and potentially securing a future title shot against me?”
I shook my head.
“Sorry Bella but between my desire to keep my winning streak going and Mercedes Vargas having it out for you, you’re going to have a tough time picking up the win in this match, well, even tougher than usual! It may have taken me six months to pick up that first win on the SCW Roster but that doesn’t change the fact that I’m a graduate of the Go Gym, or the champion breeding machine as it may as well be called, and that once I picked up that win over Bea Barnhart and Candy, my momentum didn’t stop rolling.”
And it won’t stop.
“I don’t know if my reign will be as long as Myra Rivers’ Bombshell Internet Title Reign or even J2H’s Internet Title Reign but what I do know us that I plan on holding onto this championship for a long time! Now this is a non-title match but IF you win this match Bella then maybe you’ll get the opportunity that was snatched away from you by Violet Amelia Holt, a shot at the Bombshell Roulette Championship but that is a big if.”
I said matter of factly.
“The first and most obvious obstacle there is the fact that neither of us know what the bosses have limed up for me in my first actual defence of the title and for all we know, even if you do win they may say “congrats on the win Bella, now go win a Number One Contenders Match for the Title and prove that you’ve earned it” but it’s like I said on Climax Control last night, it doesn’t matter who my first challenger is because I’ll fight anyone!”
It’s that simple.
“Well, anyone the bosses see fit to put against me in a title match at least! Don’t get me wrong Bella, you are a great wrestler but I don’t plan on just laying down and letting you pin me just because this is a non-title match, in fact I’m basically treating this like it was my first title defence, in other words, you can expect one hell of a fight and one of two scenarios to play out once the bell rings and the match ends, either you earn your win over me and celebrate.”
And with that I decided to wrap things up.
“Or I pick up the win in my first match as champion and keep the momentum rolling! This is just the start of my Bombshell Roulette Title Reign Bella and whilst you had some really shitty luck during the last Supercard Cycle, I’m sorry to say that this Supercard Cycle won’t be much better for you as it’ll start with me bringing you down with the Down Under Thunderbomb courtesy of Krystal Wolfe, your new Bombshell Roulette Champion!”
I went to start my stream as the scene fades.
