(OOC Note: Just to reiterate my point from last week’s RP, Jenny gave me permission to use Amy in my RPs)
2016 started off like any other year for Jessie, she had been involved in a lot of title matches and lost in the first round of the annual Blast from the Past Tournament and it seemed that it would be Jessie’s worse year yet, enter The Angel Clan.
The multinational stable of Bombshells and Superstars had taken notice of Jessie and seeing potential her they took Jessie under her wing, technically this happened right before the Blast from the Past Tournament match but since then there has been a noticeable improvement in Jessie’s performance and confidence ultimately culminating at Blaze of Glory where she beat Mercedes Vargas for the Bombshell Internet Championship earning her first single’s title since her brief reign as Bombshell Roulette Champion three years ago.
Jessie would go on to lose the title to Melody Grace at Into the Void IV the next month but the next person to see potential in her was “Hot Stuff” Mark Ward who saw to it that she would get a qualifying match for a spot in the first ever Chamber of Fate Match at Summer XXXTreme IV where she would beat Veronica Taylor for a chance at the title, despite being viewed as the underdog by everyone else in the match she quickly proved her worth eliminating Mercedes Vargas and Keira Fisher and whilst she ultimately eliminated by Sam Marlowe her performance pretty much solidified her spot at the top of the card and made her even hungrier for gold.
Her title aspirations would have to wait another month however as Keira pinned Jessie after the Seven Sins in a Number One Contender’s Match for a shot at Crystal Millar at Violent Conduct III, the bosses, hoping the placate her, reunited her old team with Amy Marshall known as the Metal and Punk Connection for what was unofficially dubbed the Metal and Punk Connection reunion tour ending when she and Amy challenged her old mentors The Angel Clan for the Bombshell Tag Team Titles at the Climax Control after Violent Conduct III, the match ended in a time limit draw but Jessie would use this and the fact that she had several wins over Mercedes (who was challenging Crystal for the World Bombshell Championship) as ammunition in her appeal to Mark to get a title shot, it worked.
Now we have come to High Stakes VI and Jessie was facing possibly the biggest match of her career as she challenges Crystal Millar for the World Bombshell Championship, for a brief moment it looked like Mercedes would be added to the match after she got a win over Crystal in a Non-Title Match at the recent Halloween Special but Mark stood his ground and ultimately put Mercedes in a match with Melody Grace leaving the match for the World Bombshell Championship a one on one match, Jessie has repeatedly said that she wants to end 2016 as the World Bombshell Champion, a Triple Crown and Grand Slam Champion after she had to miss the last Climax Control of 2015 due to recovering for injuries sustained in her Taipei Death Match against Celeste North at December 2 Dismember but can Jessie live her dream?
Walking down the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Los Angeles, California
Friday the 11th of November 2016, 11:00am
I’d much rather be training for my huge match at High Stakes VI but the boys insisted.
In two weeks’ time I’m facing the biggest match of my career so far, a one on one match for the SCW World Bombshell Championship at a Supercard, not only that but it’s the sixth edition of High Stakes and it’s the last Supercard of the year, in other words it’s my last chance to win another title before the year is through and once you throw in the fact that after I win this match I’ll be a Grand Slam Champion and a Triple Crown Winner when I do with the match and, well, you can see why I want to focus as much as I can on training.
Unfortunately, Jake and Shane had other ideas.
After I got back from my latest training session with The Angel Clan last night the boys told me that they were worried that I was working too hard and that an injury might mean that all the time and effort I put into getting this match arranged in the first place would go down the drain due to me injuring myself, I tried to tell them that I was being careful with my training, well as careful as I can be considering how hard The Angel Clan push me, but they insisted.
We kind of hit a snag when it came to deciding what we were going to do however.
Our first choice was check out some restaurants in LA, maybe even get on the set of Hell’s Kitchen since they have two more seasons coming up after Season Sixteen ends, there were two problems with that: 1. Filming for the new Hell’s Kitchen seasons doesn’t start until after Season 16 ends and considering that we’re up to Episode Six with Episode Seven airing later tonight there’s no way in hell (no pun intended) that that was going to become a reality. 2. Most of our money is going towards saving up for our move to Canada and Bloodstock leaving not much money for stuff like meals out, could we go to one of the cheaper places? Sure, but we haven’t seen a cheap place, most of the places we’ve seen are expensive places to eat.
After much debate, we decided to walk down the Hollywood Walk of Fame and possibly go for a meal out next week, I’m not exactly thrilled at the prospect because I’d rather spend my walking hours playing Pokémon Go but since it’s raining we’re keeping our phones in our pockets so it’s pretty much a lose-lose situation, still I’m trying to make the most of it.
“You know, when you said that this would take our minds off the election, being bored out of my mind wasn’t the first thing I thought of.” I commented as I trailed behind Jake, who was wearing his old army uniform since it was Veteran’s Day, and Shane as we walked down the street. “I knew I should’ve stuck with training.”
“Jess, you’ve been training hard ever since Climax Control went off the air, I think you’ve earned a break.” Jake said as he glanced over his shoulder at me. “Besides, being bored out of your mind on the streets of LA beats being bored out of your mind whilst in a hospital bed in Canada.” Jake added and as much as I hated being reminded off the fact that I had to miss the last Climax Control of 2015 because I was still recovering from the wounds I suffered during the Taipei Death Match against Celeste North he had a point.
“Besides, it’s getting close to lunch time and, well there’s gotta be a cheap place to eat around here somewhere.” Shane added after he checked the time on his IPhone and quickly pocketed the IPhone to stop any rain water getting on it. “Ever get the feeling that we chose the wrong day to check out the Hollywood Walk of Fame?”
“Gee I don’t know, did the fact that it’s pissing it down with rain clue you in?” I asked sarcastically and Shane shook his head in response. “All though honestly I’m just glad that no one’s accused us of being Trump Supporters just because we’re white.”
“Give it time.” Jake responded with a sigh before standing aside to let an older man walk by, when the older guy saw Jake he did a double take. “Something the matter sir?”
“You have long hair like a hippy yet that army uniform looks legit.” The older guy said as he turned to Jake and sized him up. “What unit did you serve in son?”
“13th Regiment, did two tours of Iraq before coming home.” Jake said proudly and the older guy smiled at that. “Haven’t really had any desire to rejoin the military since then, I’m just happy to try to live a normal life with my younger sister over there.” Jake said as he motioned to me and the old guy glanced over at me. “Did you serve?”
“Served in the Vietnam War, got discharged on medical grounds after my leg was blown off in an explosion.” The old guy responded with a sad sigh before pulling up his trouser leg and revealing that leg to be prosthetic. “Getting around is hard but I’ve seen a lot worse, some of my army buddies can’t even walk for crying out loud.”
“Yeah, it’s the same situation with some guys from my old unit.” Jake nodded in understanding. “Every year I like to meet up with my old army buddies on the anniversary of 9/11 for drinks and a good time but every year less and less people show up, I don’t think I need to explain why.”
“I understand completely, best you can do is continue to live your life the way you want, it’s what your old buddies would’ve wanted.” The old guy responded before extending his hand out for a handshake. “Sgt. James Maugham.”
“Private First Class Jake Salco.” Jake introduced himself and it was then that James’s eyes lit up. “Don’t tell me, you recognize my sister from somewhere?”
“Somewhere? My family are huge wrestling fans and your sister Jessie is one of our favorites.” James added before turning his attention to me. “I’m surprised I didn’t recognize you sooner, I have to say you are a lot prettier in person.”
“Heh, thanks.” I responded with a nervous laugh, this was not something I was expecting. “James, you wouldn’t happen to know a cheap place to eat around, here would you? We’re starving and we’ve been trying to find a cheap place to eat.”
“Yes, I do, there’s a bar and grill just a bit further down the street from here.” James said as he pointed it out to us. “As for the price, well it’s run by an army veteran and once he sees your uniform he’ll probably let you eat for free.”
“Thank god, I’m getting sick of the rain.” Shane responded and without another word James walked off, once he was out of site we made our way to the Bar and Grill and as soon as people noticed Jake’s uniform and realized that it was a real one the atmosphere changed quickly. “We’ll find a place to sit, looks like they are inviting you to join them at the bar.”
“Normally I’d join them but I’m just as hungry as you guys.” Jake responded before we started searching for and eventually found a table that was unoccupied. “So, what are you guys getting?”
“Well it feels like breakfast was a life-time away so I’ll probably go for something big and hearty.” I responded as I looked at the menu, it had typical pub fair on it and like James said the food was cheap but it did sound good. “Might go for the double bacon burger.”
“I know you said that you wanted something “big and hearty” but I don’t think a heart attack is normally included in that.” Shane joked and I rolled my eyes in response. “I might go for a burger as well, probably not a double burger since we still have dinner later.” Shane decided before he turned to Jake. “What about you Jake?”
“I think a burger sounds good.” Jake responded as he put his menu down. “Also don’t know if you guys noticed but you get a side of either regular or sweet potato fries and a sauce to go on the burger.” Jake added when he had a look at the menu again and we looked.
“I’ll go with regular fries and BBQ Sauce.” I decided as I handed the menu over to him. “What about you Shane?”
“Sweet potato fries and BBQ Sauce.” Shane responded and once Jake took his menu he went up to the bar to place the order, naturally since he was a veteran in his uniform he got a lot of attention from the patrons at the bar and bar staff alike. “It’s funny, usually it’s you get all the attention Jess.”
“I know, right?” I asked rhetorically as I dug my phone out of my pocket. “I’m not complaining though, much as I like interacting with fans it still feels weird to me whenever someone recognizes me on the street from my work in SCW.”
“Yeah I can understand that and I’d probably feel the same way if I ever got accepted onto Masterchef.” Shane nodded in understanding though I couldn’t help but notice the bitterness in his voice. “But who knows? Maybe I’ll have better luck with the Canadian version once we move to Canada.”
“Yeah but that’s if our paperwork gets approved and considering how much trouble we had getting onto the Canadian immigration website after Trump won things don’t exactly look good for us there.” I responded with a frown before Jake returned with some drinks. “So, was James telling the truth?”
“Not only was the food on the house but the bar staff almost offered to open up a tab in my name.” Jake responded as he set down the drinks. “They didn’t once I explained that I’m from out of town but they did tell me that me, my girlfriend and brother where welcome here.” Jake added and I face-palmed in response.
“They actually said that?!” I asked and Jake nodded with an amused grin on his face. “Please tell me you set the record straight?”
“Almost immediately, I’m guessing the confusion came from the fact that me and Shane kind of look alike.” Jake responded and Shane laughed.
“Yeah but at least tell me they recognized that I was the better looking one?” Shane joked and Jake shook his head in response.
“No comment.” Jake responded, after that we spent the next few minutes just shooting the breeze before our burgers arrived and despite the burgers being large, hearty burgers (especially my double burger) we devoured them in a few minutes. “Okay, Jess I know you have a promo to do and like I said, food and drinks are on the house so if you want to head out so you can do your promo we’ll be okay with that, right Shane?”
“Oh yeah, totally.” Shane nodded in response as he finished his drink. “So we’re heading back to the hotel once we’re done in here?”
“Unless you can think of something else to do here then yeah, we are.” Jake responded and after thinking for a moment we decided to head back, there were plenty of Pokestops in the area but the rain was still coming down so it made playing Pokémon Go more trouble than it’s worth, still I made my way outside the bar and once I found a sheltered area with some privacy I got started on my promo.
“If you had told me at the beginning of the year that by the end of it not only would I finally win the Bombshell Internet Championship but I would be in contention for the World Bombshell Championship at the last Supercard of the year I would’ve called you crazy before thanking you for the compliment and yet here I am, nearly ten months later competing in the biggest match of my career to date against Crystal Millar at High Stakes VI and let me tell you, the stakes have never been higher for me!”
Yeah, yeah, I know bad pun.
“Bad pun aside, me and Crystal kind of followed a similar path to the World Bombshell Title Scene in that we found our own way of inserting ourselves into the Main Event scene, Crystal used her guaranteed title shot from winning the Blast from the Past Tournament and I fought my way to the top through hard work, determination and dedication but what would you know about that Crystal? You are used to having everything dropped into your lap like the spoiled brat you are.”
Not saying it hasn’t backfired off course.
“Granted to get this shot in the first place I had to call Mark on Skype whilst he was still on Vacation in a place a lot warmer than America but like Crystal I did what I had to in order to secure a title shot at the next Supercard, hell one of the women she first competed against for the title was almost inserted into this match thanks to her fluke win over Crystal at the recent Halloween special but you want to know what the difference is between me and Mercedes is Crystal? I know how to get the job done inside the ring and I’m not a washed-up has-been!”
And if Mercedes was in the match I’d go into detail but she isn’t so I’m not.
“That said, what you said on Climax Control this past Sunday got to me but not in the way that you were hoping for, you were probably hoping that by calling me “not Grand Slam Material” that I’d get angry and not be able to focus on the match but it just made me laugh, like I said in the promo I’ve made a career out of proving people wrong, people said that I wouldn’t survive training because of my short stature and weight? Granted when I started training I was something like eighty-three pounds soaking wet but not only did I put on a healthy amount of weight but, well, the fact that I’m conducting this promo should tell you everything you need to know really.”
And I’ll prove you wrong in two weeks.
“Let’s go back to a more recent event, namely the Chamber of Fate match at Summer XXXTreme IV where out of the six Bombshells competing in the match everyone expected me to be eliminated early at best and eliminated first at worst and what happened? Not only was a former World Bombshell Champion eliminated before me but before Sam eliminated me I pinned Mercedes, a former World Bombshell Champion, and Keira, a wrestler who’s held every title in SCW except for the top prize, in rapid succession, did I fail? Yes, and encase you’ve forgotten already there’s two feuding morons who’ll be quick to remind you but even so that match put me on the map, before it I was just another Bombshell on the roster albeit a Bombshell who had been in the company longer than most of the other girls in the company but after the Chamber of Fate?”
How quickly people forget.
“People realized that I was a serious contender sick of being passed over for someone else, in the lead up the Chamber of Fate I basically described it as my Cinderella story since it also marked the fourth year anniversary of my Supercard Debut but just because I lost doesn’t mean that story’s over, it just means that there’s one last chapter to go before I fulfill my dream of being a World Bombshell Champ, a Grand Slam Champ, a Triple Crown Champ and a role model for recovering drug addicts all over the globe and there’s only one Bombshell standing in my way.”
This may be Crystal’s hometown but……
“Los Angeles maybe be called The City of Angels but considering some of the shit you’ve pulled to get to where you are today Crystal your far from an Angel even if this is your home city, hell I have a better claim to the angel title thanks to my affiliation with The Angel Clan and none of the members of that stable are from around here! Basically, Crystal not only will I beat you but I’ll embarrass you in front of your friends and family, it’ll be just like that one time you fucked up Silent Night during a school play except in front of a much bigger audience, better acting and there’s actually something at stake!”
And with that I decided to wrap things up.
“I’ve made a career out of being underestimated by idiots who have never heard of the saying “Pint Sized Powerhouse” because if they did they’d know that I’m not someone to mess with, to give another example, the pit-bull isn’t exactly the biggest of the large dog breeds but it’s aggression more than makes up for it just how my aggression in this match will see me through and by the end of the night I’ll end the year as World Bombshell champion, this is the “Heavy Metal Angel” Jessie Salco signing off, hope you’re ready to lose your title in your hometown Crystal because I’m ready to take it from you!”
I went back into the bar to find the boys as the scene fades.

Blog Entry
Mood: Feeling Pretty Extremely Amazing
Or Better yet like a SILVER SCREEN QUEEN
Hello everyone this is the one and only SILVER SCREEN QUEEN Crystal Millar and I just want to say that I honestly feel extremely amazing right now. This has definitely been my year and even though I know there are so many women in the locker room who really don’t care for me. Women such as Melody Grace and Mikah who see me as being this evil human being because of the way that I carry myself inside of the wrestling ring.
I just want to say that everything I have ever done was the very reason of making the Bombshell division strong again, and I recently had the opportunity to just sit back and take a look at things from afar. I have always been about women’s wrestling in this company. No matter the situation or the circumstance I have always brought my A game to the confines of the wrestling ring.
Whether it was portraying myself as the masked beauty La Paloma trying to get away from the horror of who I used to be in the wrestling world to taking that mask off so that everyone could know my name. My career in SCW has been nothing short of amazing and I just want to take the time out to think those who have helped me get to where I am right now.
Natalie McKinley for always being my biggest adversary in this company. It’s amazing how she practically owned my ass in our first like four matches yet I somehow found a way to fight back. What I had labeled as bitter hatred for her turned into nothing less than respect. I may have gotten what I wanted out of her when I beat her for the Roulette title but that level of respect became that of a close friendship.
She is somebody that I can rely on and whether I am parading around the ring as the most arrogant bombshell on the roster or slowly getting away to model for a magazine or something else she is right there to cheer me on and I appreciate it. If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have met Celeste who really got us to work together with one another. She is the reason why I decided to step up to face Mikah.
And no I haven’t beaten her yet but honestly Celeste helped drive me to the point to where I really think I could take her, and no matter how many times I fail in my quest to beat Mikah. I find myself getting better with every passing match and mark my words. One day I will beat her that’s a guarantee.
And last but not least I have to thank Zelda Clark because she is my best friend in all of SCW. She is a woman who is able to look past all of my wrong doings, and she doesn’t look at me like this vile creature like everyone else. She sees me as a close friend and that alone makes me over protective of her. She has shown me kindness and that I could never forget. Whether it’s helping me get my Jonathan back or dragging me to her home to watch the Cubbies win she is honestly the ebst thing that has happened to me in SCW so thank you girl.
This year ends with me being nominated for so many awards and accolades, and as much as I may puff my chest out about all of it. To be honest it wouldn’t have been accomplished if I didn’t have my amazing friends backing me. It wouldn’t have been possible without the fans cheering me, and without my husband I truly am a wreck.
This year has had its share of Ups and Downs but I wouldn’t change anything about it. A few years ago I didn’t know if I would have it in me to really bring back the Crystal Hilton that everyone missed. The woman that was outwrestling everyone else. The one people tell stories about but I can honestly say that I am at the best that I have ever been in wrestling, and I couldn’t be any more prouder about it.
The more I hold onto the SCW World Bombshell Championship is the more I find myself getting better with every passing moment. It’s the more I feel comfortable and it’s the more I feel like I truly am the best. After all the moment Mikah lost that same title it was being bounced around between three different reigns but I brought stability to the entire division.
I made this title the championship to have again and in the middle of a long Kate Steele reign and Melody Grace’s Internet title reign. I am the one that’s still standing. It won’t be long before I surpass Delia Darling as being the second longest reign with the title but I don’t want to settle for just that.
I won’t rest until I surpass what Mikah did with the title because the moment I do that’s when I will be the measuring stick for all Bombshell wrestling in this company.
At the last Supercard I went into hostile territory and I was able to emerge as your champion still but now with high stakes approaching the stakes are indeed high. The California part of the tour has been amazing.
With each show I notice the cheers keep coming in. More people are cheering me for what I do, and it culminates when I get to go compete in front of a Los Angeles crowd, in front of a fanbase that I love to call home. I may have been born and raised in Detroit Michigan but I have spent most of my life in Los Angeles and it’s a place that I am fond of.
For all of my wonderful stars and starlettes. I promise not to let you down. Consider this the homecoming tour and Crystal Millar will fight like none other for you. This is for you and let the reign of the SILVER SCREEN QUEEN CONTINUE,
Damn it feels great to be home! And Jessie you better watch out because I will be damned if I let my city down! You won’t leave my city with my title. I have a few things to say about that!
Crystal’s Mansion
Hollywood Hills
Crystal had finally walked into the doors of her Hollywood Hills mansion. It was going to feel great to actually sleep in her own bed for a change. All of that traveling had worn her out, but damn it felt good to be home. She wasn’t alone as her friend SCW blog girl Zelda Clark had decided to accept her invitation to stay at her home, and she could be seen walking through the doors of the big mansion. Crystal quickly sprinted over to the couch and jumped on it. She spread herself as she glanced at Zelda walking into the house with three huge suitcases.
“I appreciate you helping me bring all of this stuff in Christina. Let the little blogger carry all of her stuff all by herself!” Zelda sighed in return as she had a hard time carrying everything. Crystal however just sighed as she sat down on the couch glancing back at Zelda with an exhausted expression on her face.
“Hey nobody told you to bring all of that stuff with you! Who the hell brings three suitcases for a two week trip… That’s just ridiculous if you ask me…” Crystal snapped back as she looked up at the ceiling. “Besides I don’t want to get off of the couch. It’s too comfortable. It’s not often I get to actually spend time in my own home Zelda…”
Zelda just leaves the suitcases by the door as she closes the door behind her. She rushes over to loveseat and takes a seat beside her. “Hey there’s so much to do in Los Angeles. I couldn’t decide on what bikinis I was going to bring with me so I decided to bring them all. It’s going to be so much fun just laying out in the sand taking in all of the sun. I figured we could hit up a Malibu beach one day. A Los Angeles one another, Definitely going to swim in your gigantic pool. I can’t wait until you take me to see the Hollywood sign along with all of these other movie star homes. You know all of the stuff I missed out when I came here for Summer XXXtreme. Stuff you were supposed to show me but because you were arguing with your husband you weren’t the mood to do anything!”
Crystal just sighs as she looks back at Zelda. “You know you can be quite demanding at times right? Funny when I spend time with you in Joliet we never got to do the things I wanted to do. You made me watch the Cubs with you. Then you dragged me to the parade with you and the only thing I wanted was to try some of that famous Chicago Deep Dish pizza and maybe see the Sears Tower but nooooooo we had to do what you wanted to do!”
Zelda begins to get all pouty as she looks back at Crystal. “Hey! You know the Cubs take priority to everything else. That was history in the making! And you could always get Deep Dish pizza the next time you come. You really didn’t miss anything!”
“Right… I still want that brick oven goodliness but don’t worry Zelda I promise I will take care of you… The only reason why I poked fun about you is because you are going to be in Hollywood for Christ sakes. Why bring all this luggage when we can do so much shopping on Rodeo Drive! We are going to go places Zelda. In addition to what you just mentioned. We are going to see the Chinese theatre with everyone’s hand prints imprinted in the cement. We are going to look at the Walk of Fame. We are going to do Universal and Disney Land. It’s going to be an amazing week leading up until the Supercard.”
Zelda’s eyes light up as she begins to get excited. “And can we go to San Diego to go to Sea World?! I wanna see Shamu!”
“Zelda we are not traveling to San Diego just to go to Sea World… Who gives a damn about watching some overgrown fish…”
“He’s not a fish he’s a whale! They are mammals it’s much different…” Zelda seems adamant as Crystal just sighs in return. “Fine we will see fucking shamu! But before we do anything I want to show you my movie studio. I don’t think I really got the chance to give you the proper tour of it the last time you were here. It’s going to be fun… Don’t you worry….”
“Alright Christina… I am going to trust your judgment. I am just happy to be in Los Angeles to begin with. That last Super Card I got really sick for and between flying on that private jet with you. To being able to not pay for a hotel for my stay here. It makes it all worth it plus I get to hang out with one of my friends. So it’s a major bonus for me!”
“Well I am happy you are going to enjoy yourself. Honestly Zelda that’s what it’s all about. Being able to enjoy yourself. You know the rules make yourself at home. Treat it like your own baby, and if you have any issues come see me… Sound good Zelda?!” Zelda slowly nods her head in agreement.
“Sounds fine with me! Now if you would excuse me. I think I am going to take a dip in your pool! Might as well jump right into it. Let me go grab a bikini!” Zelda smiles as she runs over to her suitcase and brings it with her into the guest room. It isn’t long before we can see Crystal’s sixteen year old daughter running down the steps until she runs right into the living room. She takes a seat next to her mother as she smiles at her.
“How’s it going mom!” Crystal slowly rises up as she looks over at her daughter with a wide grin on her face. “Hey B Brat… You know now that I am home it means we are going to have so much time together right?!”
Brittany nods her head with a wide grin. “Of course… I can’t wait for you to actually come to one of my games. I been dying to see you watch me play softball….”
“Watch you play? Brittany… You are my daughter! You had to inherit my ability. Granted your father played a good third basemen but well you know… I was an ACE. I gunned these chicks down. If I didn’t get….”
Crystal stops her statement as she looks at Brittany. Brittany nods her head as she looks back at her mother. “Pregnant you would have been a Division 1 pitcher. I know….”
Brittany sighs in return as Crystal reaches over and pulls her daughter close to her. “Brittany I didn’t mean it like that. You know you are by far the3 most important in my life right? And despite me having you at such a young age. You are my entire world. I wouldn’t trade you away for anything. You are my partner in crime and you don’t have to feel like you have to fight for my attention…”
“It sure feels that way with the way you hang about Zelda so much. Or when you do come home you are all over training up Allison, but I seem to be an afterthought most times…” Brittany says with a long sigh.
Crystal however nods her head as she pulls Brittany in tighter than before. “I know pumpkin but I will work on some of those issues. Trust me when I say you don’t have to ever feel that way. You are my everything and tomorrow will be our day. I want you to be better than I ever was. I want you to step out on your own and do your own thing without using my name. Tomorrow it’s going to be our day. Mother and daughter how does that sound?”
“Sounds great besides it’s not like Jonathan has been all that helpful. He just keeps counting down the days until Pokemon Sun comes out saying how he’s going to shut himself off from the world. So it will be good to have someone in this house who won’t forget about me…”
“Wait… He better not forget he has a wife! I got some words for him!”
Crystal storms away as she screams at the top of her lungs. “JONATHAN!!!!!” She walks away leaving Brittany to just sigh to herself. “Nevermind… Why do I even bother….”
The sixteen year old girl says as she just shakes her head in disgust.
On Camera
Grauman’s Chinese Theatre
Paparazzi and other media outlets gathered themselves around as Crystal Millar and Zelda Clark sat down in Hollywood high chairs with their names on the back of them in the center of a Star. Crystal was dressing to impress as she wore a beautiful low cut dress a pair of sunglasses on her head, and she had her White SCW Bombshell World Championship draped across her lap. Zelda smiled as she looked into the cameras as it zoomed in on the both of them.
Zelda: “Hello everyone this is Zelda Clark SCW Blogger girl, and tonight we are right here on the outside of one of Hollywood’s most famous tourist attractions Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. Where stars come out to watch new movies make their big debut. It’s also the place where you can find hand and foot imprints of various stars. Sitting down next to me is someone who I believe a lot of people call a star. She is your current SCW World Bombshell Champion Crystal Millar! Give a hand for the Los Angeles native.”
Crystal can’t help but smile as the Los Angeles crowd is really letting her have it. They all begin to chant her name over and over again. Crystal smiles taking it all in as she looks at her White Championship and holds it proudly into the air.
CRYSTAL! CRYSTAL! CRYSTAL!
Crystal grins as she keeps it held high into the air for a few more moments before she turns her attention over to Zelda.
Crystal: “Wow did I mention how much I love this city?! I mean every other city I wrestle in the boos would be coming at me from all cylinders, but right here in the heart of Los Angeles. I do believe this is Crystal country and I love hearing how much my stars and starlettes adore me. So keep the cheers coming because in the home of the Galen Center where the USC Trojans play. I will do everything I can to make these people proud of me as I walk into the arena as a champion and leave with my title intact. You can bet on everything that I will beat Jessie and I will walk out as a champion still!”
Crystal smiles as they keep cheering her on and she turns around looking at the fans.
Crystal: “Okay I know you all really love me almost as much as I love myself but quiet down a bit. I am in the middle of a big interview and I know mentioning Jessie Salco might bore you to death but somebody has to do it right?!”
The people laugh as Zelda continues to speak some more.
Zelda: “Now you are going to be competing against Jessie Salco on the last Supercard of the year. How does that make you feel considering she has been telling everyone that she’s going to end the year on a high note. That she’s going to walk away as the World Bombshell Champion and is already looking at who might be next up to face her next.
Crystal points at herself as she shakes her head in utter disgust.
Crystal: “How do I honestly feel? I feel like Jessie is spewing a bunch of horse shit. A bunch of bullshit to be honest. When she stood in the ring with me she had the chance of the lifetime to really talk me down. She had the chance to tell what she was telling everyone else on social media to my face what she was going to do, and yet she seemed to be nothing more than a whiny little BITCH! She bitched about having to wait to get a title opportunity that she HAD to call and ask Mark Ward for a title opportunity. Or she said since Mark gave it to her! Either way it’s still very pathetic. Jessie whined about Mikah not caring anymore. Yet despite not caring Mikah who I really don’t care for has wins over me while I was champion. She talks down Sam Marlowe yet Sam managed to hold this title twice before Jessie held it one time.
Zelda: “Are you really defending two of your biggest rivals?!”
Crystal: “Not really I don’t care for them but I respect what they do in the ring, and Jessie is just asinine with her comments. She sounds stupid whenever she opens her mouth. She spent all of that time burying Mercedes Vargas and yes Vargas can be so hit and miss but you know what those three women did that she hasn’t been able to do this year? They all have beaten me! They hold victories over yours truly granted Mercedes has never pinned me in this company hitting me in the head with a God Damn pumpkin, but they still have beaten me. Jessie just stands out inside a ring complaining and moaning why she should be taken seriously but can anyone really get behind someone who whines so much? I for one can’t and then she tries to talk shit about Los Angeles? That’s where I draw the line. This city has made me. It’s a city that I cherish more than anything else in this world, and I am not going to tolerate her forms of disrespect especially when she is spewing stuff without thinking before she speaks.”
Zelda opens her eyes up as she looks back at Crystal just shrugging her shoulders at her.
Zelda: “Like what exactly?!”
Crystal: “Just this week alone she has told everyone that her and I have followed a same path to the World Bombshell Championship that we both inserted ourselves into the picture. Okay let’s nip this shit in the butt right now. I didn’t insert myself into anything! I simply carried Des…. Ahem what I meant to say is that Despy and I won the biggest …. Screw that I CARRIED DESPY!!!!
The fans begin to boo Crystal.
Crystal: “Oh come on! You can’t boo the Los Angeles girl… That was my cheap plug for Moment of the Year votes! After all vote for me 2016 moment of the year and most hatred. It will go a long way in my eyes!”
The fans chuckle again as Crystal grins.
Crystal: “With the disgrace American politics has been this week and all the hate might as well give you all something to laugh at and have you vote for something that really matters. Such as me! But anyway we had won the biggest tournament of the year. Which means Despy and I EARNED title shots. They weren’t handed to us. They weren’t begged for we EARNED them but Jessie makes it seem like I had to insert myself into the title picture. As a certain politician would say… WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! But she did talk that up. But then the next minute she talks up the fact that she got to where she is through hardwork, and all that jazz and says I don’t know anything about that since I am so spoiled… Alright check this out. Jessie is an idiot.”
Crystal takes a deep breath as she speaks some more.
Crystal: “I might live here in Los Angeles, but I was born in Detroit Michigan… You know a working city! I learned how to work hard for the finer things in life, and everything that I have now is from busting my ass. You can’t tell me that I won a tournament to get a title shot then tell me I don’t know what it’s like to work hard. That doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. I was 7-0 to start this year off. My record was unmatched and I have beaten everyone minus Mikah that has gotten in my way. I may be the wrestling world’s biggest cunt but I have worked my damn hardest to bring balance to the division. Who was the one crying out there in the middle of the ring that she wasn’t noticed? Oh yeah that was Jessie Salco. Who is the one trying to make everyone else believe she’s credible? That’s right it’s Jessie Salco. Tell me this what has Jessie Salco done to warrant herself a title opportunity?!
Zelda: “Well she is a Triple Crowner…
Crystal: “Oh you mean how she immediately got an Internet Championship opportunity after her ass got beat at My Bloody Valentine by Kate Steele? The fact they made Melody jump through so many hoops before she actually won the title? The fact she has all of these tag title reigns from getting carried around by Amy Marshall and she’s trying to chase after what her more superior tag team partner has already accomplished? The thought to be a grand slam champion? Jessie could have gotten a one on one opportunity but she lost to Keira. She had a chance in the Chamber of Fate match and her ass got beaten so what’s going to make this time any different than all of the times before?
Crystal smiles widely.
Crystal: “Nothing! Jessie is the one being handed something while I have been the one who has been proving myself night in and night out… Minus when I disappeared for a bit during the Canadian tour but aside from that I have been proving my worth every single week and she thinks that I don’t know about hardwork? That’s a load of bull. Jessie talks up how she started training when she was 18? I started when I was seventeen right there in Mexico at my father’s wrestling school. The father that was appearing in my life. I am not trying to one up her at all but Jessie needs to get her facts straight before she tries to talk herself up without knowing who she is dealing with. It’s just like when I first came into this company and I was buddies with Vargas. She assumed that made me a member of the Mean Girls and I have NEVER been a part of that group at all. But I get it. Jessie’s a little excited because she could be a Grand Slam Champion. It’s getting to her. She really wants that Happy Ending but….
Crystal smiles wickedly.
Crystal: “But she would be better off going to Friendlys and finding her Happy Ending there.”
Zelda: “Friendlys? The Ice Cream place?!
Crystal: “Yes… Happy Ending their two scoop Sundae. So delicious or if that doesn’t work I am sure there’s a couple of places around where she can pay a few dollars and well yanno…. As much as she wants to walk in the path of her tag team partner. In Roxi’s steps, and in Vargas steps you got to remember in high school I was a pitcher and you know what happens when I get on the mound and looking at a bases loaded situation? It’s time to gun this bitch down. Give her the heat and strike her out right off that plate. She isn’t the only one who is chasing something in this. She’s not the only one fighting for something. I am out here trying to keep my title. To chase Mikah and break her record with the title to cement my name as being the ebst ever. Sounds like wishful thinking but to be frank. We all know I am the best. And I have all of the wins to prove it. I won that Chamber of Fate match biggest Bombshell Match ever! That alone proves my worth. You can analyze who Jessie has beaten this year but when you look at me it’s a case of who I haven’t beaten, and you will see there’s not that many that I haven’t gotten past. On November 20th. One week before my birthday. I will end the year on a high note and then it’s onward to seeing what’s next on the horizon.”
Crystal grins again.
Crystal: “So bring the fight Jessie… Bring everything you have in you. Mosh out like you never moshed out before. Bring me a dose of that heavy metal life that you live, and I will be there to change the track. One of my pop albums should suffice. After all your chance will go POP just like that gone and forced to go to the back of the line as I move on. Sorry I had to be the one to burst your bubbles but you can keep on believing that this fairy tale dream of being a Grand Slam champion will come to past while I rather dwell in reality where I am the woman to beat. One you haven’t come close to beating in a very long time. Lights, Camera, Action! The films are rolling let’s make a movie shall we?! Never mind the credits are rolling before this even begun… That must really suck. See you in the Galen Center Jessie. Let’s see what you can really bring to the table.”
With that Crystal stands up as she holds her title high into the air. The crowd continues to cheer her on as she smiles passionately.
Crystal: “Welcome to my city… A city I won’t let down….”
With that Crystal stands on the top of her chair holding her title proudly as we fade out on this image.

Rose Productions Movie Studios
Hollywood California
Crystal and Zelda had both arrived at Crystal’s movie studio company. Crystal smiled as she showed Zelda around taking her through various areas in her studio. Crystal grins as she looks back at Zelda.
“So what do you think about my studio so far? This is where all the magic is made…Granted there are times where we have to do filming elsewhere but we run a really good company over here, and the benefits are just so awesome.” Crystal smiles as she looks back at Zelda who just takes it all in. The Illinois woman can only chuckle in return as she keeps her eyes on Crystal.
“It all looks amazing… I don’t know how you balance doing so much but I am really proud of what you do Crystal… It takes a certain type of person to really be able to do movies and wrestle. Granted so many people seem to be doing that but it’s all just amazing.”
Crystal smiles in return as she continues to speak. “You know Zelda it’s not too late to be in a movie with me… I know you always say no but just think about it this way…”
“NO!!!”
Crystal sighs as she looks back at Zelda. “But you didn’t even let me finish what I was going to say!” Zelda continues to shake her head sighing back at Crystal. “I don’t care the answer is still NO!”
“Fine I will stop asking but it’s your lost though. We could have made this awesome documentary about a Cubbies fan seeing their dream come true…”
“Really?!” She says with her eyes held wide open but Crystal just replies in return. “No not really but I had you going didn’t I?!”
“I still would have said no… So anyway how do you manage all of this?!”
“Well Zelda it’s hard work in fact…”
Before Crystal could say anything that is when her personal assistant Chloe Martin walks over to Crystal and Zelda. “Hi Mrs. Millar I hope I am not disturbing anything…”
Crystal just sighs as she glances back at Chloe. “Well I was hanging with one of my best friends and you just interrupted something important…” Chloe nods her head sighing. “I am so sorry but the board wants to see you.”
“The board wants to see me right now?! I am kinda busy what don’t you understand…”
“But, but they said it was urgent….” Chloe says nervously as she just looks directly into Crystal’s eyes. “Crystal it’s fine… Just go to your meeting. I will just walk around these sets a little more… It sounds super serious…”
Crystal nods her head as she looks back at Zelda who gives her the thumbs up. “Thank you so much… Hopefully this doesn’t take so long!” Is all Crystal can say in return as she makes her way to the executive meeting room of her studio’s board of directors. Despite being the owner Crystal usually subjected herself to the whims of what the board wanted. It made dealing with the business easier. She strolled into the meeting room as she took her place at the head of the table.
“Alright yours truly has arrived. So what’s so important that you had to pull me into this big meeting… Anyone care to speak?!”
Alexander Ross the CFO of Rose Productions looks at Crystal before glancing at everyone in the meeting room. “Well seeing as we are in Los Angeles and so is SCW we figured now would be the perfect time to start making another movie. It has been a long time since you really put some effort into a movie, and we could capitalize on the revenue that would come from all the fans that are in town for High Stakes. We could offer them tours and we could be building up publicity with your big homecoming tour!”
“That sounds amazing!” Crystal smiles widely. “You know you guys have great ideas every now and then…”
Alexander Ross smiles as he nods his head and continues to speak. “You are a World Champion so your fans will support what you do. We might as well take advantage of SCW while they are here. On top of that you were absolutely amazing in Ottawa. Despite dealing with everything against you. You found a way to emerge victorious and we loves conflict and controversy. Money emerges out of it. So what we wanted to do for your next big gig is for you to star in a RomCom…”
Crystal eyes light right up as she looks at her board. “RomCom? Well you do know I can be funny so it won’t be that hard to play… Who is going to play opposite of me?!”
Everyone in the room is quiet as they all stare at Crystal.
“Well don’t everyone talk all at once… Please somebody say something!” She snaps back as finally Alexander speaks. “Well to be honest Crystal we want you to make that movie with Matt Stone….”
“HELL NO!!!! I AM NOT DOING ANYTHING WITH HIM!”
Alexander just smiles as he looks back at them. “But just imagine how much money you guys would bring in together?! The revenue would be ridiculous. People would pay money to see you two go at it especially after all the times you made bets with him and continuously find yourself on the losing side of things… Why not bring that same animosity on a big screen!”
“NO! That just sounds dumb… I don’t want to make money with him…”
“Well we already offered him a contract to make this movie….”
Crystal’s eyes light up. “WAIT A MINUTE… You are going to pay that piece of crap money from MY STUDIO?! My money?! Are you stupid?! After everything he tried to do to ruin my life….What kind of Romantic Com movie is this?! What does the script entail?!”
“Well it will take place right here in Los Angeles. You know some bikini scenes. Some kissing, and a nice hot and heavy scene in the middle to build up the love angle, and we really get behind our hero as he saves the damsel in distress from the bad guys in a massive shootout….Matt actually made those requests said it would be better if the damsel got tied to a chair with tape over her mouth so we didn’t have to hear her…Would be authentic with how he feels about you…”
Someone else chimes in. “Prefers to see you not hear you…It’s better that way…”
Crystal begins to get upset as she storms out of the room. “No… Get someone else….”
“Or would you rather hear the public say you don’t make movies anymore. People talking you down like you don’t do much anymore…”
Crystal sighs as she storms back into the room.
“Fine! I’ll do it but only because it’s going to help with my movie image… “
“Great! I’ll call marketing we will get things rolling and it’s time to start building this movie up. You just worry about being ready for your big title defense. You need to make sure you are still champion, and we will do what we do….Thank you so much Mrs Millar…”
Crystal storms out of the room as she walks over to Zelda. “Is everything okay?!”
“Meh… I rather not talk about it… It involves that guy that was harassing you on Twitter the other day and you called him a weirdo. Let’s just go do something today to get my mind off things. How does Universal sound?!”
Zelda smiles wide as she looks back at Crystal. “Sounds like a plan!”
The two women grin at one another as they head for Crystal’s car.

Crystal Blog
Feeling: supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Time To Get This Work!
You know this past week has been absolutely amazing. The stakes couldn’t be any higher this week! Okay so maybe that is probably the most cliché thing I have ever said while trying to incorporate the title of the Supercard into a blog but being in Los Angeles always brings out a big fight feel to me. Because it’s the city that made me. It’s the city that took me in and I face my biggest challenge yet because at the very last supercard of the year. Jessie Salco wants what I have and she better get ready to bring a whole war because I will be damned if she is going to come into my city and take away what I worked so hard to achieve.
You get what I just said?! I said I worked hard for my championship belt but Jessie Salco wouldn’t understand that because everything she says is full of contradictions, and she can’t even say two sentences without contradicting something she said. Such as talking me up about winning a tournament and how I had to earn my place in the main event scene then following up with I am a spoiled brat who has no idea how to earn things. Things just fall into my lap.
Right… Because that makes a whole lot of sense. To be quite honest I never really liked Jessie Salco. I never liked her since I came into this company and it’s because she seems to be a woman who has her head far up her own ass. She thinks herself to be this great amazing wrestler but the only reason why she got to where she is, is because she hasn’t crossed my path yet. She had no issue burying Vargas trying to convey to me that she is washed up.
But despite how bitchy I might have been as of lately. Despite what I might say in front of a camera to be truthful as I have always stated in the past Vargas is one of my closest friends behind the scenes. As a matter of fact she is one of the people who brought me into this company. She and I had a tag team title run in another company a long time ago. She might be a lot of things but she just beat me a month ago. She has a win over the current champion which is me but yet she’s still a has been?
No that doesn’t make her a has been. That makes her someone who has a credible claim to being in line for a championship opportunity but yet you can’t see that because you are too blindly by the bs that is spewing out of your mouth. She’s more qualified to get a shot then you are.
Yet you got this title opportunity by calling Mark Ward and asking him for a shot! So let me get this straight you begged to get this opportunity?! You had to beg for a chance to be in the ring with me and then want to act like we both had to do what we had to do to get this shot?
No let me school you really quick. I have never had to beg for anything in my career in this company. Never have and never will because I am confident in my own ability and in the management here to know that I will be rewarded when the time is right. As far as schooling you goes well.
World Bombshell Shot #1 I earned because I defeated the number one contender a few weeks prior. It’s hard to not make a case when you flat out beat a major contender before their big title match. Shot # 2 Mercedes got pinned in that big triple threat. It wasn’t me so during the biggest Bombshell tournament of all time I was given a shot because the company felt I deserved it. Did I ask for that shot?
Nope… It was simply given to me because they felt I earned it. Shot number 3 I won the Blast From The Past tournament. Had an impressive winning record this year but the main fact is I earned my shot. So there another shot that I had earned. Shot #4 Since what was supposed to be my one on one shot was compromised by Sam Marlowe asking for her rematch clause I was finally given my overdue shot and you know what happened when it was an one on one affair?
I flat out beat Sam Marlowe. I didn’t use some underhanded tactic. I didn’t cheat to win. I didn’t do what was needed to win. I simply went out to that ring and won. I locked on my Withering Rose and she passed out. Which means in theory I EARNED the title.
I don’t know where you get this notion that I need to do what I need to do to preserve my title claim. My wrestling ability can do me that much.
Take a look at my matches and you will see that I have fought to the best of my abilities in all of my matches. I went out there with a purpose and I simply won. Am I a bitch? Well duh but I have a right to be so because I know I am the best damn talent on the whole roster and nobody can take that away from me. That’s why I don’t run away from the hard challenges in this company.
That’s why I continuously call out the likes of Mikah and women like her because you can’t make claims at being the best until you go out there and beat the best. The title that is around my waist is a testament to all of my hard work, and I am not going to let that get flushed down the drain against a woman who had to beg just to get here.
Remember you are3 the one who could have had this shot a long time ago but you couldn’t beat Keira. You got beat! And you want to throw up what you did in the Chamber in somebody’s face like it means something. Bitch I was in that match and I was the woman that WON it! So why does any of that even matter to me?!
It really doesn’t but you wouldn’t care because in your eyes it’s all about what you did. It’s all about what you plan to do and that doesn’t fly with me. I have been champion for a very long time and I won’t be able to rest until I get past what Mikah did with the title so I can write my name in history as being the absolute best. You on the other hand want to live in this land of make believe. In this land where you think you have what it takes to beat me well let me ask you what even gives you the belief that you are going to beat me inside of the ring?
What really makes you believe that things are going to go in your favor in Los Angeles of all places? Please answer that question because I really want to know?
While you try to find a way to contradict yourself again I will be doing what I do best. Going down to that ring. Kicking yet some more ass and emerging victorious with another win under my belt. There’s a reason why I am the World Bombshell Champion. I didn’t get here by chance. I got here because I fucking earned it, and at High Stakes I am going to give you the business.
My birthday falls the following Sunday and it would absolutely wreck my birthday if I lost to the likes of you the week prior.
So bring it Jessie… Give me everything you got, and let it be known that I will be waiting… See you on Sunday….
Off Camera
Malibu, California
With SCW in Los Angeles for High Stakes, Rose Productions thought it would be wise to capitalize on the rise of their biggest star, owner, and SCW World BombShell Champion Crystal Millar. Crystal smiled as there were some fans that had gathered around the set. The champion couldn’t help but run over towards them as she took photos and signed various autographs. She was forced to smile as the fans were in for a lucky treat today. Her in her bikini and it was such a rare shot to have. Across the beach, a director sighed as he motioned her over. She smiles and waves to her fans. “Alright time to start filming now. I need all of you to keep it quiet. We do want this to be a success, right?” Everyone cheered in return as the World Champion sprinted over to the director in the sand.
The director couldn’t help but sigh as he looked back at Crystal. “Is there a reason why we aren’t on a closed set?! Are all of these people necessary?!” He sighed as he glanced back at her. She cracks a wicked grin as she shrugged her shoulders. “What can I say these people adore me. Plus I am defending my championship in Los Angeles! Of course all of my fans are going to show up!. VIP all access pass to the filming. Special first screening. Didn’t you get the memo that my company is trying to make money or were you not informed?!”
Crystal says evilly as the secretary for Rose Productions who doubles as Crystal’s personal assistant walks over towards the both of them. Chloe Martin has a clipboard on her hand as Crystal smiles back at the director. “Anyway can we get on with the filming now. Isn’t this the part where I get to lay out in the sun. Show everyone my beautiful bikini body and the fans are in for a real treat!”
The Silver Screen Queen chuckles but the Director just smirks as he looks back at Crystal. “Actually you didn’t get the revision to the script did you?! As per Matt Stone he wanted there to be a big chase in the ocean. We got the boat coming. Just need you to look like a helpless woman who can’t swim as you get thrown into the ocean! Your assistant should have given you the rewrite…”
Chloe seems nervous as she looks back at Crystal. “I was trying to get in contact with you all day Mrs. Millar but you seemed to be busy doing everything else… I am sorry…”
Crystal eyes open wide up as she looked back at the Director. “Like I can’t swim?! YOU KNOW DAMN WELL I CAN’T SWIM! It wouldn’t even be acting at that point!”
Chloe shakes her head. “But don’t you own your own pool?! I thought you could swim!”
“Chloe my pool is filled with a lot of salt water… It makes it kinda hard to drown in… Besides it’s easy to not drown in a pool that matches my height! Where the hell is Matt at anyway! I thought I was to be notified of any changes to the script! Am I going to get a stunt double at least?!”
The director shakes his head. “I thought you were Crystal Millar… A woman that was above stunt doubles. A woman who could do everything on her own. Besides Mr. Stone said you would be delighted to play this part. Bikini body, tapped mouth thrown into the ocean with the rest of the fish. He said you would feel at home. After all this is your big homecoming right?!”
Crystal crosses her arms as she taps her feet into the sand. “WHERE THE HELL IS THIS PIECE OF SHIT!”
“Can you keep it down, I’m on the phone.” Came the voice of her co-star from within a camper about twenty feet away from the set, it had blended in so well with the rest of the beach that Crystal hadn’t given it a second thought until just now. She stood there, mouth open as the man made his way out the door towards them, wearing nothing but swimming trunks and a pair of dark sunglasses, holding a cell phone to his head.
“No, we haven’t even started shooting yet, still waiting on the boat to get here, but I didn’t expect too much coming from Rose Productions…” The disdain on his tongue from saying that is quite noticeable. “So right now we’re just waiting on that and Hilton’s throwing a bitch fit, probably because the sand doesn’t bring out her eyes properly or some other nonsense, I’ve told you how difficult she is to work with before.”
Crystal couldn’t help but storm her way over to where Matt was at. She speared him to the ground planting him right into the sand as she hovered over him looking down into his eyes. “I don’t give a damn if you are on the phone or not. You have some serious explaining to do. This is supposed to be my big homecoming yet you insist on embarrassing me in front of my beloved city. Care to explain along with these so called revisions…”
The director smiled as he looked at Crystal. “Good… Great… This is exactly what I wanted to see for after the big chase. Mind you the roles are going to be reversed….”
Crystal’s eyes opened wide up. “What do you mean reversed?!” The director smiles. “Well you know the hero rescues the damsel in distress and I think you know what happens next…” Crystal seems befuddled as she looks at Matt.
“You mean a shot with me and him… And…. no! Just no!”
Matt’s too busy coughing, holding his stomach to make a joke right now about Crystal being on top of him, although the last time Crystal was on top of him didn’t go so well for him either, as he recalled. He tried to at least sit up and catch his breath from the deep shoulder he took in the abdomen, looking around for his phone, finding in under some sand. “What are you bitching about?” He finally was able to say, turning his phone off.
“Oh I don’t know… These rewrites you wanted done to the script. Such as a boat chase with me getting thrown into the ocean…. I am supposed to believe that you are just going to dive into the ocean and rescue me?! I don’t care how safe this might be or whatever. But what do you have to gain from tormenting me. You saw how I conquered in Ottawa. You perhaps trying to make me look down in Los Angeles. What’s your game Matthew?! What do you have to accomplish out of any of this. Explain yourself right now…”
“My game?” He asks, pushing her back enough so he can actually get up, people taking lots of photos of this. “My game is to make money, idiot. You think people come to movies to watch people sit and talk on the beach? Anyone can do that, look around you, there are hundred of people doing that right now for God’s sake! People go to movies to see action, to escape the pathetic reality they find themselves in every day and what is it that people don’t do everyday?” He waits for a few seconds expecting her to fill it in, but of course the doesn’t. “They don’t have boat chases or rescue people, feel like they’ve made a real difference. So that’s my game, if you want to call it that. Be successful, it just makes sense if you want those dollars and cents.” neat little catchphrase he made up on the spot, not bad.
“And you are probably getting all excited about me in a bikini aren’t you?!” She smiles rising off of his chest as she points to her butt. “You like seeing this up close don’t you?!” She smiles as she runs her fingers through her hair. “”Making money off of my dime…. You think you won again…. Well I go through with this script because it’s my big movie comeback. It’s my big return to the big screen. You should feel lucky to be my co star. You might be made relevant…”
Chloe shakes her head. “Ummm Miss Millar wasn’t he already relevant from all of the tabloids of you having an affair… Or trying to have an affair with him and cheat on your husband. It’s kinda easy for him to get one up on you when you make yourself look bad…” She sighs as she smiles at Matt.
Crystal shakes her head as Chloe walks over towards Matt. “Hi there Mr. Stone.. I am Chloe. Huge fan of yours and all of your work. I am the one who chose you for the all about Crystal Millar challenge, and I might have said something to the board about your work. It’s hard not to follow you! Considering I am from Gatineau. You are like an idol!”
Crystal opens her eyes in disgust. “Wait a minute… You are from Canada?!”
Matt ignores Crystal, taking Chloe’s hand and shaking it. “Please to meet you Chloe, apologies for my appearance, have to stay in character.” He says, pointing at his chiseled body, brushing off some of the sand from Crystal’s spear. “It’s always nice to meet a fan, such an attractive one at that, maybe we should be getting you in a bikini as an extra.” He gives her a wink, looking her up and down.
Chloe nods her head. “I would love that… Although Crystal get’s annoyed every time I even try to do something constructive for her!”
“NO! That’s always because you try to take my damn spotlight. I am the star! It’s my studio! I am the one with the World Championship and you are striving off of my success. You should be lucky I decided to take you under my wing. Not many people can say they are the assistant of a wrestling great. Now I am sorry to interrupt your little Canadian reunion and you can get all giddy off of maple syrup and stuff like that! But this is Los Angeles. Hollywood! The land of make believe! The land where I can build you all into stars and…”
Chloe sighs looking at Matt. “Does she always talk this much?!”
“Oh my God, you have no idea. She just doesn't shut up, if you think this is bad, you should try taking her out on a date sometime, she’ll just go on and on and on while you're trying to figure out if you can stab yourself properly with the butter knife.” Matt rolls his eyes, turning his back on Crystal to try and tune her out and speak with Chloe. “So is there a mister Crystal’s assistant?”
“No… Not really I am single and…” Crystal cuts in as she steps in between the two of them. “No you aren’t going to hit on MY assistant! So why don’t we just go on with the filming already. The sooner we get it done the sooner we can get to the better part of the film…” Finally a little motor boat arrives as Crystal seems annoyed.
“Really the chase is in THIS?! I thought I would have been on a yacht like Eva Mendes was in 2 fast 2 Furious but the best we can do is a small motorboat! Do you all really want me to get seasick?!”
The director walks over. “Well at least due to Matt’s great thinking you beating tied up along with your mouth covered will prevent any accidents during the film. “And I wouldn’t worry about you going into the ocean Matt says he’s a really strong swimmer so he will have you taken care of. If there are any issues we have the best swimmers that Hollywood can buy jump in to save you. This is your chance to really captivate audiences Crystal. You ready?!”
“Of course I am ready after all I am THE SILVER SCREEN QUEEN!!!!!!!!”
Matt mouths “call me” to Chloe as Crystal breaks them up, turning to pay attention to this ever-so important conversation with the director. “Okay, hold up.” He interjects himself. “If she’s going to blow chunks, maybe we should have someone else in the scene. Or, even better, in the movie s a whole, like that cute blonde girl over there, she can’t be much different than this one and I don’t want to have to deal with sick people.”
“Whoa you need me in this movie Matt!” Crystal crosses her arms as she grabs Matt and proceeds to make out with him before she pulls away. “Besides I bet she can’t do that! It wouldn’t be as authentic as me, and this is to promote ME! So I will be your damsel in distress and you will rescue me you got that!” She begins to poke Matt in the chest hard.
The director sighs. “But a minute ago you said you weren’t going to be a damsel and….”
“JUST SHUT UP!!! I am not going to let some skinny Canadian Bitch replace me… So go on Matt you need me. You know we could put on a great movie together. Somebody tie me up and duct tape my mouth. I’ll show you some amazing acting!”
“I’ve been waiting a year for her to say that.” Matt says outloud, wiping away some saliva from his mouth from that kiss. “Okay, if we’re going to do this, I wanna get this done in one take, do you know your lines, Crystal? I know how hard it is for you to remember things…” He fires back sarcastically.
“Of course I know my lines! I am tied up with duct tape over my mouth because of the rewrite! I don’t even say anything. I just sit there in a bikini… Wait a minute…. Can’t I have a little more clothes. This just seems to be too much in Matt’s little fantasy world…”
The director shakes his head. “I hardly believe an undercover cop would have time to change into something else after she’s been kidnapped.. Why don’t you just go with the flow. It won’t be that bad after all all the cameras are on you Ms. Millar…”
“Fine let’s start the filming and go from there.”
Matt’s looking at Crystal the entire time she’s talking, looking her up and down as if thinking about something. “Actually, hang on, maybe she does need something else. Can we get her some nose plugs? Last thing we want is for some water to get up that big schnoz of hers.”
Crystal smiles as she looks back at Matt. “Awww look at you being concerned about me drowning. Maybe you aren’t that bad, but I am putting a lot of trust into you Matt… A LOT OF TRUST! And I swear on everything. You screw me over… I will haunt you for the rest of your life. That’s a promise.”
“Riiiiight, not wanting you to drown, that’s my main concern, making sure you don’t drown. And don’t worry Crystal, I have no reason not to make sure you’re perfectly safe, you’re my meal ticket after all, right?” He gives her a wink before heading off to get his make-up touched up for the scene.
Crystal however followed him as Chloe was right behind him. “So Matt you ready for your big debut on the big screen. I know we haven’t always seen eye to eye but if this goes right we could be in for a lot of money. People love seeing us fight so this could really be a blockbuster! Since we have to actually work together to make a great production together.!”
She smiled as she stayed by his side meanwhile. Chloe angrily stood on the other side of him. “So you really think I am cute enough to be an extra?!”
“BACK OFF CHLOE! Shouldn’t you be doing something resourceful with your time?!”
“Well working for you it’s hard to know what’s considered resourceful!” The two females just stare daggers at one another as Matt is left in the middle.
“Don’t worry Chloe, she doesn’t actually know the meaning of the word resourceful, I’m pretty sure she meant productive. But talking to me is productive, she just doesn’t know that, And yes, I think you’re cute enough for an extra, maybe even more than that. All you need is an opportunity, this could be it.” He says, thinking, ignoring Crystal’s comments.
Chloe smiles as she wraps her arm with Matt’s arm while Crystal wraps herself with the other arm. “Get off of him we both are Canadian!” “No you get off he’s my CO STAR… Go find your own FriEnemy!” The two women argue back and forth as they each find themselves getting closer to Matt. As they keep arguing all the way over to where the make up station is.
“Ladies, ladies, there’s plenty of me to go around, there’s no need to get grabby. We have this scene to do, then maybe we can go back to my trailer and get grabby.” He says with a wide smirk, actually loving this right now.
“Good I’ll go get ready and wear the best bikini ever for this scene!”
Chloe grins as she looks at Matt. “And I’ll change into something more suitable so I can be an extra…” Both women hug on Matt as they walk away but as soon as they do. They begin to fight with one another in the sand as the fans in the background begin to whistle as the two females roll around trying to get the best of one another.
Matt just stands there, watching the two of them go at it, he’s never been one to break up a cat fight. He does start to get closer though, not to break it up, oh no, he just wants a better view of the action.
The girls continue to fight one another as there are cat calls everywhere. Chloe tugs at Crystal as Crystal yanks at her assistant’s hair. Eventually however Chloe yanks a little too hard on Crystal’s bikini top and it comes off. Crystal’s face seems to be in shock as she covers up and tries to run away as her paparazzi following snap photo after photo in the background.
“NO YOU STOP THAT NO PHOTOS!!!!!!”
Matt can’t help but laugh, taking out his own phone and taking his own picture as she makes her get away. He walks over to Chloe, offering her a hand to help her up. “Okay, you are definitely my favourite of her assistants.”
“How about we do lunch Mr. Stone! It would be an honour!” She smiles as Crystal is already in her camper trying to hide out of the public eye.
“Yeah, we probably have time before she’s ready to do anything, sounds like a good idea to me.” He flashes a smile, waving to some of the people who aren’t trying to get photos inside of Crystal’s camper. Linking arms with Chloe, the two of them walk down the beach for some food.
Off Camera
Malibu California
We find ourselves in the little camper of Crystal Millar and it is there where we are able to see Zelda Clark shaking her head at Crystal. She offers a long sigh as she stares deeply into Millar’s eyes. “Why do you continuously put yourself through so much torture?! You are Crystal Millar! You shouldn’t be worried with dealing with all of that nonsense.”
Zelda says with a sigh as she looks back at her friend. Crystal however puts oner her clothes as she looks back at Zelda.
“I honestly don’t know… Every time I get around him I don’t know what comes over me. It’s almost as if I become so possessive…” Crystal sighs as Zelda nods her head in agreement.
“Well you shouldn’t he’s a jerk!”
“Well he’s my co star… I have to work with him!” Crystal cries out in return as Zelda just shakes her head. “Well you might be co stars but that still doesn’t mean you have to like fawn over him. You are a married woman for Christ sakes! And you wonder why you aren’t nominated for a couple of the year award. You have a perfect husband at your home why don’t you focus on him….”
Crystal just shrugs her shoulders as she looks away. “Or maybe Matt isn’t the issue. Maybe you are the issue! You can’t help yourself. You have to be the center of attention wherever you go!”
Crystal shakes her head in disbelief as she stares daggers right into Zelda. “That’s not true… I don’t always have to be in at the center of attention. Just prefer to be in the spotlight for most of the time.”
“You want to know why you found yourself topless on the beach?! It’s because you don’t like it when people that fawn over other females that aren’t you!”
“OKAY SO I HAVE INSECURITY ISSUES! There’s nothing wrong with that Zelda! I am sure a lot of people have those same kind of issues!” Crystal yells back in return but Zelda sighs as she looks back at Crystal.
“Well it’s a problem when this happens!” Zelda pulls out her phone as she cycles through some things sighing as she continues to speak. “You will get your fame although I doubt it’s the type you want right before a major show…” She shows her phone off to Crystal as the World Bombshell Champion seems to be in shock as she glances at the phone.
“What the hell is this?!”Crystal looks annoyed as Zelda sighs in return. “Well your little fight on the beach got you noticed by the tabloids. Seems like they are already working up the story of you topless!”
“So what Zelda… It’s Hollywood people make up a lot of stuff… It’s not like anybody is going to believe that those shots are actually real…”
“Well considering there are so many witnesses because you tried to promote your movie in conjunction with the supercard in town…It’s hard to deny it as being fake… Look I know what it seems like Crystal. Whenever something doesn’t go your way you just blow it off like it’s not important and try to move on from it but you can’t keep on doing that. It’s going to eventually catch up to you and I rather not see one of my best friends have this massive nervous breakdown because her head wasn’t on straight… You need to focus Crystal… Stop doing that!”
“Doing what exactly?!”
“Trying to get all of these guys to fawn over you! Trying to get all of this attention! You are better than that. Everybody knows you are better than that! So just cut it out and focus on you instead of somebody else…”
“FINE!!!!! I will God you know you can be so demanding at times?!”
Crystal cracks an evil grin. “So you sure you don’t wanna be in a movie?!”
“NO I TOLD YOU NO! I don’t care about what it’s about the answer is still no!”
“Well how about my promo video… Just interview like you normally would…”
Crystal smiles evilly as she look back at Zelda.
“Why are you smiling like that?! Crystal you better answer me!” Crystal just continues to smile as we fade out on these two.
On Camera
At The Skatepark In Malibu
The cameras come into focus and as they do we are treated to the sight of Zelda Clark standing in front of a camera with a microphone in her hands. She smiles looking deeply into the heart of the cameras as she begins to speak.
Zelda: Hello everyone this is Zelda Clark and I am right here in the heart of Malibu. We are only a few days away from High Stakes, and joining me today is the one and only…. World Bombshell Champion Crystal Millar! Crystal said she was going to do an interview and it’s just a matter of waiting for her to ar…..
All of a sudden we can see someone on a skateboard making their way over to where Zelda Clark is currently at. Has to move out of the way as the person on the skateboard throws the SCW World Bombshell Championship at her. Zelda catches it as the woman goes down into the skatepark. She does jumps up doing a trick as she tries to skateboard up the wall but ends up falling flat on her ass.
Crystal: Total bummer dude… You can say it’s a total WIPEOUT BRO!!!!!!
Zelda: Crystal are you okay?!
Crystal smiles as she shows off her wig which is jet black hair. She grabs her skateboard as she jumps up to where Zelda is and stands next to her.
Zelda: What is wrong with you?!
Crystal: Far out dude! My name is Jessie Salco I was just blasting my Metallica album while I was trying to do a switchie on a skateboard. Hit those REAL HARD TRICKS BROOOOOO… And after I am done going to grab my surfboard hit those nice ice cold waves. Hang ten and ride off into the sunset!
Zelda: You better not! You can’t even swim!
Crystal: It doesn’t matter if I can or not because it’s going to be a massive celebration dude!!!! Going to listen to some hard heavy metal. Go talk it up with my friends maybe smoke some weed. Chill right in the heart of a pit and just mosh it up! I might just stage dive too… I might not know how to swim but I can definitely dive!
Zelda: …
Crystal: What you saying I can’t do that! Look this Sunday at High Stakes the stakes couldn’t be higher for me DUDEEEEEE… I have this big match ahead of me and I called Mark Ward right on the phone. I told him PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE please give me a chance at Crystal Millar even though I clearly don’t deserve it! She’s been nothing short than amazing this year, and even though I had my chance in the Chamber of Fate. Even though Keira did beat me! Please let me have that shot!
Zelda: And what did he say?!
Crystal: He said… He said…. He said….
Crystal thinks about it as she takes off her wig and throws it to the side. She chucks the skateboard to the side as she snatches the World Bombshell Championship away from Zelda and holds it proudly in the air.
Crystal: To be honest it doesn’t really matter what he said because my name is Crystal Millar and I am going to talk about something called reality here. 12 years ago some hot shot teenager went to the heart of Mexico to learn howt o wrestle. Granted Jessie started when she was 18 but I started when I was 17 learning how to wrestle under my father. I became La Paloma or in other words the Dove. A woman who was ready to take the wrestling world by storm as she flapped her wings and soared over every one else.
Zelda: Think God you cut the theme promo thing idea quickly.
Crystal: Why?!
Zelda: That’s a surfer dude not a Metal head!
Crystal: Oh and I am sure you had your share of Metal Head concerts haven’t you?! Anyway before Iw as so RUDELY interrupted. This city made me. When you were trying to figure out who you wanted to date in high school or what new N Sync CD you wanted to buy! Spoiler Alert we all know you are a boy band fanatic at heart. I had graduated wrestling school and was with my husband at the time Todd Williams trying to figure out what kind of impact I would make in the wrestling world. During those days however I was only looked upon as being eye candy. There wasn’t a place for me in the ring only as an interviewer and as a valet.
Crystal sighs as she continues to speak.
Crystal: I did what I had to do to make my breakthrough in the business. I did the jobs that no one wanted to do. From there it was to competing in what were filler matches. Taking up space on a roster to offer cool down matches and refreshment breaks so people could get ready for the main events. It annoyed me to no end but I didn’t let it stop me. I got better. I kept pushing myself and then all of these all women companies opened up and the moment they did I found a home. I ascended to the top. I broke out of my shell and really became a force in the wrestling industry and it didn’t stop there. I kept on getting better. The Crystal brand became greater than I could ever imagine and I was able to establish myself in beautiful Los Angeles.
Crystal waves her fingers.
Crystal: But none of it was handed it to me. I had to earn every single thing I ever achieved and for you to try to tell me elsewise pisses me off because you don’t know what my struggle has been. You don’t know what it felt like to grow up in the slums of Detroit being raised by a single mother. Who was truthfully my aunt but she decided to adopt me because her little sister who was a dope fiend had to have a child that she couldn’t raise. But despite being a single mother with four kids of her own she took me in. She adopted me and she did her damn best to put food on the table. She did what she had to do to make sure her kids made something of themselves. My brother Mike made it into the NFL playing for the pros. So you could say he made it. My brother Steve went into the army and decided to fight for this country. My sister Esther is an absolute monster of a woman who has won her share of weightlifting competitions. My sister Cherrie got her doctorates and became a doctorate while managing to win World Championships in wrestling along the way. Not to mention carrying me to multiple tag team title reigns, and then of course there’s me.
Crystal takes a breath as she speaks again.
Crystal: The woman who is the poster child for a fucked up childhood. A girl who got pregnant at the age of 13 who dropped out of high school. Who had all of these softball scouts looking at her. Yet it didn’t stop me. I eventually made something of myself. You want to puff your chest out like you are the poster child for people with addictions who can overcome. Hell I was a severe alcoholic and I had gotten so bad I hit my own daughter with a car. It’s a very touchy subject. A part of my life I wish to forget but don’t try to act like you know the struggle. I am a woman who was birthed from a drug addiction. I was a woman who had to live with a woman trying to clean up her sister’s mess but yet here I am now making a comeback and I am at the best that I ever been at. You want to embarrass me in front of my friends and family. Bitch go *BLEEP* yourself because that’s something I just wont tolerate.
Crystal looks at her championship again as she stares into the heart of the camera.
Crystal: But oh no! Pint Size Powerhouse. People overlooked your size and you capitalized on it right? Yeah I got three inches on you so what but you got five pound on me so what does that say?! It says that it really doesn’t matter. What you should be worried about is what is going to happen as soon as the bell rings and you are standing face to face with the best female in the company today. It’s a matter of putting up or shutting up. Which do you plan to do? What are you going to do when you go toe to toe with me inside of that ring The time for saying what you are going to do is over Jessie. It’s time to be about it. Forget being Grand slam Champion material or you even World Bombshell Champion material? I will be happy to answer that for you… The answer is NO! No you definitely aren’t. Not now and not ever. As long as I am holding this championship around my shoulder you won’t come anywhere close to it.
Crystal smiles.
Crystal: Los Angeles, At High Stakes I will win this for all of you. Lights, Camera, Action… It’s SHOWTIME!!!!!!!!!!!!
With that Crystal smiles as she raises the championship belt high into the air as we slowly fade out on her.
Post by: Jessie Salco on November 18, 2016, 10:09:39 PM
Jessie’s shot at the SCW World Bombshell Championship was just a few days away but Crystal Millar wasn’t about to lose the title without a fight, the champion has so far fought off challengers in the form of Keira Fisher and Mercedes Vargas but Jessie was more than a little confident that she would be the one to dethrone Crystal and join the ranks of the Bombshells who have held all the titles in SCW, this wasn’t going to be an easy task for the young Bombshell but if she can succeed Jessie would certainly shut up the haters.
Jessie’s year had been a roller-coaster even after she joined the ranks of the Angel Clan at the beginning of the year, from being eliminated in the first round of the Blast from the Past Tournament to winning the Bombshell Internet Championship from Mercedes Vargas only to lose it the very next month to Melody Grace Jessie knew that she had a lot to prove heading into this match and whilst her performance in the Chamber of Fate Match at Summer XXXTreme put her on the map as a real contender for the World Bombshell Championship she still had to prove that she could get the job done against Crystal but can she do it?
Local gym, Los Angeles, California
Friday the 18th of November 2016, 11:00am
Back in August, during the leadup to the Chamber of Fate Match, I thought that was going to be the biggest match of my wrestling career, as it turned out, it was my second biggest match of my career and the biggest match of my career is this Sunday.
Encase you’ve been living under a rock these past four months, not only did I challenge Crystal Millar alongside the likes of Mercedes Vargas, Mikah, Sam Marlowe and Keira Fisher but I was the second to last competitor to be eliminated in the match which was especially hilarious when you consider that pretty much everyone thought that I was hopelessly out of my depth in that match and that I’d be the first one out, instead that “honor” went to Mikah and I shut up all of my haters with my performance in that match.
Not counting Alexis Edwards and Evia Baang off course which is fine by me since I don’t need the opinion of a fellow recovering drug addict and a bimbo.
Anyway there’s a reason I’m bringing up the past yet again, the Chamber of Fate match was what made me realize that I could do this, I could win the SCW World Bombshell Championship and I just needed a one on one match against Crystal to prove that I could do it, unfortunately Keira got a Twitter campaign going and despite the fact that I eliminated her in the Chamber she got another chance in the form of a Number 1 Contender’s Match which I lost after she caught me with the Seven Sins.
And just to rub some salt in the wound, not only did Keira lose the match but I was stuck in a meaningless tag team match with Amy against The Justice League and after we kicked their asses Christian tried to keep me out of the World Title Picture by booking a match for the World Bombshell Tag Titles against my mentors in The Angel Clan, the match was a war, no doubt about that, but it ended in a double count out draw and I restarted my efforts to get a one on one match with Crystal.
The fact that I’m promoting this match and promoted it last week should tell you how successful I’ve been in this campaign, ever since my title match was confirmed to not be a Triple Threat that also featured Mercedes Vargas because she got a fluke win at the recent Halloween Special I’ve been training as hard as I can and as I said last week our trip to the Hollywood Walk of Fame was pretty much the only time I’ve had off since the match was announced so yeah, I know I’m ready for this match.
But the real question is, is Crystal ready for me?
There’s a reason why I’m not training with The Angel Clan right now, they told me that they want to focus solely on their tag title defense against The Elders and Samuel’s Triple Threat Match against JT Midas and Ryan Keys but they did reassure me that they were rooting for me to take home the World Bombshell Championship, to be fair they did rent out a local boxing gym for us to use as it was the closest thing in the area to a wrestling gym so I’ve been using that for my penultimate training, it helps that the coaches also happen to be huge wrestling fans and asked me for an autograph right before the session started.
“You’re doing great Jessie!” Jake shouted from the ringside area as I punched into the pads that the trainer was holding up, I was basically wearing a sports bra and yoga pants and had my hair up in a ponytail and we had been there since the early hours of the morning, Jake and Shane where watching from the ringside area as I said and they had a metal playlist playing which started with the new Kreator song “God’s of Violence” before going to Lamb of God’s 512, Havok’s “Point of No Return” “Throwback” by Acts of Defiance and was currently on “In Union We Stand” by Overkill, needless to say it was a great selection of music.
“Yeah and you don’t look half bad either!” Shane joked as he leaned against his chair and I rolled my eyes with a slight laugh. “Seriously, with how fast your punching I’m surprised that you’ve never considered taking up boxing, or MMA for that matter.”
“Yeah, no offence to these guys but I’ve never been much of a boxing fan.” I responded and my coach pretended to be genuinely hurt by my comment in response. “As for MMA, I had never even heard of it before I set my sights on the wrestling world and by the time I had discovered it I was dead set on being the best wrestler I could.” I responded before a song I wasn’t familiar with played. “I thought you put together the Spotify playlist Jake?”
“I did, Spotify must’ve included some random metal songs on it.” Jake responded before checking my laptop. “Ah here we go, it’s a song by a band called Denied called Three Degrees of Evil, want me to change it?”
“Nah, sounds good to me.” I shrugged before I resumed my training, the coach had me work on my knee strikes next which I had already worked on quite a bit with Amy. “Though to be honest I’m surprised you guys are wrestling fans, didn’t think there was much crossover between wrestling and boxing fans.”
“Why do you think The Angel Clan sent you to us?” The coach asked as “Revolution” by Lazarus A.D. played next. “As I’m sure you know, striking is just as important in wrestling as the fancy moves you often pull off, 450 Splashes are great and all but a good solid punch to the jaw can really mess up someone’s day.”
“Yeah, especially with brass knuckles on.” I responded half-jokingly as I continued my workout. “And I knew that but most boxing fans I’ve met refer to wrestling as “fake, pantomime bullshit”, their words, not mine.”
“I believe that.” The coach responded before giving me a hand signal to indicate that it was time for a break. “But just like boxing many wrestlers get into the sport for a reason, often it’s for money, other times it’s for fame.”
“And then they realize that rookies are expected to work their first few matches without being paid.” I responded as Jake paused the playlist and Shane tossed me a water bottle which I caught. “As for me, it was a combination of fame, money and personal reasons.” I added as I removed the cap and took a sip from the water bottle. “Not really something I’m comfortable discussing with a guy I met just a few hours ago though if you’ve seen my profile on SCW’s website you’ve probably figured it out already.”
“Yeah, I’ve seen it and I’m pretty sure I know what you’re talking about.” The coach nodded in understanding before putting the pads up. “Fair enough about keeping your history private, we just have to focus on the future and how you’re going to mess up Crystal’s pretty face with your punches on Sunday Night.”
“Now you’re speaking my language!” I responded with a grin before I picked up where I left off before the break and Jake resumed playing the playlist this time transitioning to one of the songs from Metallica’s new album namely Atlas Arise, the training continued for a while but in the back of my mind I still had what the coach had told me before we started again, namely that everyone goes into a sport like wrestling for a reason, the training session ended just in time for lunch time and the trainer started removing his pads.
“Great work today Jess, keep that up tomorrow and Crystal won’t know what hit her.” The coach added and I grinned in response. “If you’re thinking of a great place to get some lunch, there’s a great Mexican Restaurant not too far from here, it’s cheap and it won’t give you the shits like Taco Bell will.”
“Yeah because the one thing I need after a good workout is diarrhea.” I said with sarcasm dripping from my voice before holding up my hand and clenching a fist. “And you’re wrong, Crystal will know what hit her on Sunday because it’ll be my fist!”
“With that attitude I’m surprised that you’re not Bombshell Champ already.” The coach responded as I got out of the ring and headed to the women’s changing room and I glanced over my shoulder at him.
“If attitude was enough to gain success in wrestling I’d be an SCW Hall of Famer by now.” I responded as the boys started packing up my laptop and got the name of the Mexican Place from the coach, I entered the changing room and grabbed my duffel bag but rather than flash my tits for the camera (that’s Kaylee Saunders’ job) I got started on my promo first since I was the only one in the changing room.
“It’s an old cliché that I’ve heard way too many fucking times since I was adopted by my current family.” I said as I got my street clothes out of the duffel bag and lay them down. “You can be anything you want to be in this world, that’s what they all told me after I got clean, to this day I’m still surprised by how surprised my adopted parents where when I told them that I wanted to get into the wrestling business back when I was eighteen, like I said last week I wasn’t exactly a healthy weight at the time and my parents were worried that I’d get chewed up and spit out by a sport like that and for a time, they were right but I persevered.”
I said before taking a sip from my water bottle.
“But even too this day I still get asked the same question, why? Why did I get into the wrestling business? I’m not exactly the tallest women’s wrestler around and even at a healthy weight I’m still pretty small compared to some of the other girls in this business, I guess it’s because I got sick and tired of being a victim, first I was my adopted father’s victim and by that I mean the asshole who abused me as a child, then I was the victim of the drug dealers who kept me hooked on cocaine until I overdosed and was promptly carted off to rehab, if your starting to feel sorry for me, don’t, yes I’ve been a victim most of my life but now as I head into the biggest match of my career against Crystal Millar for the SCW World Bombshell Championship, I am a victim no more.”
I said as I leaned forward.
“Crystal, you’ve had pretty much everything handed to you on a silver platter, hell the one reason you are champion right now is because you got a random title shot against Sam Marlowe on the Climax Control right after Into the Void IV and to use another tired old cliché, you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, I wasn’t, I had to work to get everything I wanted out of life, hell I had to pay for wrestling lessons myself because my parents sure as hell weren’t going to fund my training due to the concerns I’ve already mentioned and believe me, I spent about five hours trying to persuade them before I realized that they weren’t going to budge and by the time they found out about it I was too far into my training for them to stop me hell they were impressed by just how committed I was to my dream if you ask me, it was money well spent.”
That’s the difference between us.
“Heading into the Chamber of Fate Match at Summer XXXTreme this past Summer I thought it was going to be my Cinderella story, four years to the day of my SCW Supercard debut and I was going to win the SCW World Bombshell Championship, if that actually happened our roles would be reversed, I’d be the defending champion and you’d be the challenger but more importantly I realized that my estimation for one reason, you want to know the date of my debut match? Not my SCW Debut, my wrestling debut match? It was the twentieth of November two thousand and eight.”
I remember it well, for how bad I was.
“I’m not going to lie and say that I was a natural in the ring, I wasn’t, in fact for a while I couldn’t find work in Florida because of how bad a wrestler I was but I worked hard to improve my craft and as I look back now to my early days in the wrestling business I can’t help but shake my head at how naïve I was thinking that the character of a wrestling metal chick would lead me to superstardom, well I wasn’t exactly wrong in that estimation, look at where I am now just for an example of that, but I was under the impression that I would achieve Superstardom right out of the gate, it didn’t exactly take long for reality to slap me in the face.”
I still feel that slap to this day.
“The point is that I’ve come a long way from my early days, not just in SCW but in wrestling in general and I do have a short list of people to thank for that, that all women’s fed I was in before I jumped to SCW because they were one of the first places to take a chance on me, Spike Staggs for accepting me into NXT just weeks into my SCW career, Amy Marshall for agreeing to form the Metal and Punk Connection with me and start my slow climb to the top, The Angel Clan for taking me under my wing when I was in that rut earlier this year but most importantly I have to thank you Crystal and it’s for two reasons.”
Two very simple reasons.
“Reason number one: it was the Chamber of Fate Match that made me realize that I could do this and here I am, ready to take the fight too you, and reason number two: for being the one I beat for the SCW World Bombshell Championship, it’s been a long eight years but when I beat you on Sunday it’ll be all worth it as I end the year in a much better place than when I started it, just a shame that 2016 has sucked so fucking much outside of wrestling but you can’t win them all I guess and this Sunday you’ll learn that the hard way when I beat you.”
And with that I decided to wrap things up.
“If the last part sounded more like an award acceptance speech than a wrestling promo then I guess it’s kind of a fitting metaphor because this is like a beloved actor finally getting recognition from the Academy but unlike those Lifetime Achievement Award this isn’t just some consolation prize, this is me taking the Best Actress Award from you and how appropriate that we are doing it in the home of Hollywood? All I’m going to say is that this Sunday the director will finally call “CUT” on your World Bombshell Championship reign and I am going to walk out as champion, this is the Heavy Metal Angel Jessie Salco signing off, get ready to lose your title Crystal because you've had your time in the spotlight and now it's my turn so I’m coming for it!”
I started getting dressed but the scene faded before I could take anything off.
