Cassie was robbed off her spot in the Blast from the Past Tournament when Mikah used a rope assisted pin to get the win and advance to the next round but the young Aussie was far from done as SCW arrived in Stockholm, Sweden where she was set to take on another wrestler from the Elimination Chamber Match: Mercedes Vargas!

However not all was well in the Young Justice camp: over the past two weeks Cassie’s partner in crime Harper has been harassed by Victoria Lyons, seemingly having earmarked Harper as one of her next challengers for the Bombshell Roulette Championship but also sowing the seeds of doubt as to whether Josh was showing preference to Cassie or not, can Cassie get the win despite all of this?

Referees make bullshit calls in every other match yet act surprised when they get called out on it, and yes, I’m talking about my last match!

If Drew had done his job properly then I’d be in the semi-finals and Mikah would’ve fucked off to wherever she came from but no, he somehow missed the fact that Mikah was using the ropes for leverage and again, the bosses wonder why wrestlers like me get pissed off at the referee core!

Off course, that’s not the only bit of drama that happened during that show in Iceland!

I wasn’t present for Harper’s initial confrontation with the Lyons, that much is obvious, what wasn’t obvious was that Victoria wants Harper to be one of her next challengers and me and Josh are being dragged into the mess by virtue of Victoria trying to turn Harper against us.

Whatever Victoria’s game is? I don’t know and neither does Harp, but I’ve got my own match to worry about next week as we travel to Stockholm, Sweden for SCW’s third stop of the Viking Era Tour, my opponent? Another wrestler who was in the Elimination Chamber at Blaze of Glory, in fact she was the Bombshell I eliminated right before Andrea eliminated me from the match and went on to lose the title to Kayla, that’s right, it’s Mercedes.

Between that tag team match, the chamber and this match it seems I can’t escape the old bitch, doesn’t it?

”So, we at least know what Victoria was getting at last week thanks to that in ring seg.” I commented to Harper as she turned to me. ”Except there’s definitely more to it than just the Roulette Title.”

”That much is obvious!” Harper grunted before stretching her arms a bit. ”I didn’t even have my eyes set on the title, I was just planning to take this cycle as it came like I usually do, but when Victoria brought up her title last night? I had to jump on the opportunity.” Harper added before leaning back in her chair. ”This Queen’s Gambit thing makes it sound like Christian has more in store for Victoria but I won’t know for certain until Sunday night, speaking of, you have that match against Mercedes to worry about.”

”And considering Victoria mentioned both me and Josh a few times since this whole mess started?” I responded with a frown as I folded my arms. ”What exactly is stopping them from showing up towards the end of the match in a repeat of what happened during your rematch with Kayla?”

”Nothing really, I can try to stop them off course but it’d still be two against one.” Harper responded as she shook her head and I nodded in agreement. ”I guess that gave me more ammo in case I get round three against Kayla, which at this rate will probably happen during the first tour of 2026, but given how vicious Vincent has shown himself to be? Somehow I doubt he cares about SCW’s intergender rules.”

”If nothing else he’d get a hefty fine for it! But in the meantime I have my own match to worry about.” I responded before I stood up and turned to Harper. ”And frankly the only way this could be a perfect storm of bullshit is if Guy with a Cape is the ref.”

”You’d think, or at least hope, he’s too busy with his own Blast from the Past Match with J2H to take part in that but apparently not.” Harper sighed as she shook her head and I nodded in agreement. ”So, plans for the Mercedes match?”

”Go out there, show the world why Mercedes should be in a retirement home and not championship matches, win and deal with any crap from Victoria as it comes.” I responded with a shrug and Harper frowned. ”What do you expect me to say Harp? Victoria is keeping her cards close to her chest as far as her motivation for this whole thing goes and for all we know? It could extend past Into the Void, I know Josh will have something to say about it after he confronted the Lyons after last night’s main event but he’s my manager too and this week? My match needs to be his main priority.”

”I get that, but he’ll also need to have my back in case the Lyons try anything on Sunday.” Harper responded before letting out a deep breath. ”Gonna be a busy weekend for Josh, ain’t it?”

”True that, and at least there aren’t any volcanos in Sweden for me to jump down.” I responded with a grin and Harper laughed a bit before shaking her head, before long we were packing up and getting ready to leave Norway for Sweden and the next part of the tour but one thing was for certain.

The next few weeks, at most, were gonna get messy.

Wildlife Safari, Stockholm, Sweden
Wednesday the 23rd of April 2025, 14:00pm

I’m a simple girl who loves food and animals, so when Josh proposed this trip to me and Harp? Well, how could I refuse?

Granted, we’re not going to see stuff like lions or alligators in the Swedish Countryside (at least I fucking hope not) getting to see boars, moose and dear this close was bound to be cool, as cool as going in a volcano? I doubt it, that’s going to take a lot to top, especially since I cut my Blast from the Past promo from that volcano.

But I’m not saying that I won’t try to find a spot with some wildlife in the background for my promo either, why? Same reason as why I did the volcano promo in the first place, how often am I going to get a chance to do that?

And yes, just to remind you guys, these are officially sanctioned tours I’m talking about, Josh wasn’t taking any chances.

“Ahh, here we are.” The guide, a local guy called Sven, said as he pointed us towards some moose that were grazing nearby. Harper started taking some pictures of the animals on her phone as did I. “This moose heard has been active in the area for some time now.”

”So how are moose as wild creatures?” I asked Sven after taking a couple of more pictures. ”Are they aggressive or not too bad?”

“Depends, if your threatening their young then moose can get aggressive and bull moose in particular can be territorial, it’s best to give the animals space.” Sven explained and we nodded as we got the idea. “Why do you ask Cassie?”

”I was hoping to film a promo with some wildlife in the background, not really interacting with them but just as a cool background feature.” I explained to Sven who nodded as he got the idea. ”After I filmed that promo in a volcano over in Iceland? I feel like living on the edge.”

“Ahh I see, wait, what?!”  Sven did a dozen double takes after hearing that last part but it was at that point that Josh chimed in.

“It was an official tour, with a guide and everything.” Josh explained and Sven nodded as he followed along. “We went inside a long dormant volcano, only one inactive enough to allow for such tours.”

”Besides, if I went in an active volcano I wouldn’t be alive, would I?” I chimed in and Harper shook her head in disbelief that I had to say that. ”And even if Josh wanted me dead, there’s a lot of easier reasons than chucking me in an active volcano.”

“I suppose you have a point there.” Sven commented with a nervous laugh before we resumed hiking. “Let’s get to the campfire meal, then we’ll return to this spot for your promo Cassie.”

”Sounds good.” I responded with a nod before we continued up the trail, as we did though Josh turned to me. ”What?”

“Are you going to bring up the volcano promo whenever I take you out on a trip for the remainder of this tour?” Josh asked with a raised eyebrow and I grinned sheepishly. “Just asking Cass.”

”It’s like I said at the time, how often is an opportunity like that going to come around?” I asked with a shrug and Josh considered my answer. ”Besides, this is my first full overseas tour with SCW since I made my debut, I may as well milk it for whatever it’s worth.”

“I suppose so, just try to avoid giving tour guides heart attacks.” Josh teased me and I shook my head with a laugh before we continued up the trail.

Stockholm Safari, Stockholm, Sweden
Wednesday the 23rd of April 2025, 15:30pm

*promo time*

I was back in front of the moose heard and they were all just chilling and not paying much attention to me, granted I was a safe distance away from them but still.

”From the Bombshell who gave you a promo from inside a dormant volcano comes…………..a promo in front of a heard of grazing moose.” I said as Harper (my camerawoman for the promo) showed the moose behind me. ”Okay look, Sweden doesn’t exactly have any animals as dangerous as a volcano and I’m sure the people of Sweden are thankful for that fact, but if I’m going to be a daredevil adventurer style bombshell on these tours? I need to find something to fill that itch!

But on that subject? Let’s talk about my last match, and how I got robbed by an old bitch and a referee who needs Lasik eye surgery like yesterday!” I commented with an annoyed grunt as I folded my arms. ”That match was highway robbery, plain and fucking simple! But at least this week I get to take out my frustration on a Bombshell who’s been around nearly as long as Mikah, hey thee Mercedes, been a hot minute since we last shared a ring huh?”

Yep.

”First there was that tag match against Andrea and Kayla which, despite Mercedes’s claims to the contrary, she cost us, then there was the Elimination Chamber Match that the tag match was hyping, remind me, how did that end for you Mercedes?” I asked hypothetically as I looked at my nails playfully. ”Oh yeah! I eliminated you with the Wolfe Hunt after Andrea and Kayla had already hit their finishers on you! Now granted, I didn’t last much longer but you try being one of the first wrestlers in the match going the distance!

And no. the fact that I’m saying this to another wrestler from the Bombshell Elimination Chamber Match at Blaze of Glory isn’t lost on me, but guess what? The point still stands!” I added before smirking at the camera. ”I suppose after those two encounters it was only a matter of time before we had our first singles match Mercedes but as much as I hate to repeat what I said in the leadup to Blaze of Glory? You’re still a spent force.”

Yep.

”This is well trodden land by this point Mercedes but the Bombshell who once dominated the division is long gone. Replaced by a shell of your former self.” I motioned to one of the moose. ”Hell those things have a better chance at winning a title at this point than you do, sorry but it’s a simple fact! Actually? I’m not sorry because respecting your elders is moose shit and respect is earned.

Which is appropriate considering your recent record can be compared to those moose droppings over there!” I added as I pointed to the field in general not expecting Harp to actually zoom in on moose crap, understandably? She didn’t. ”How many times have you gotten opportunities like the Elimination Chamber Match and squandered them? Bonus points if they were just given to you at random! Too many to count? Thanks for making my point for me!”

You know it.

”My own record when it comes to titles in SCW hasn’t been great but I at least put in a lot more effort into my title matches than you’ve done in years!” I insisted as I folded my arms. ”In fact, here’s a neat little tibbit I learned about moose during this little trip, they live for about fifteen to twenty five years, which means at least one of those moose has lived a whole lifespan since the last time you were relevant in the division Mercedes.

The truth hurts, doesn’t it?” I asked with a teasing wink as one of the moose momentarily glances in my direction before resuming it’s grazing. ”And let’s not try to predict the future that way because talking about you in general is headache inducing Mercedes! But in the end? The only thing that’ll hurt more than the truth, and possibly being knocked down and stomped on by those things, is the fact that a girl who only got old enough to drink last year, at least in the us, is about to kick your ass for the second match in a row!”

It’s that simple.

”Not gonna lie, I kinda wish there was a donkey back there just so I could make an ass pun! Oh well, what can you do? At least it’d be a better donkey than the new Shrek trailer!” I commented before shaking my head. ”But yeah, Mercedes? I need to win this match after I was just robbed in my Blast from the Past debut! And while your continued presence on the roster provides a real time Blast from the Past?

How long until people realize just how sad and pathetic you’ve become in recent years Mercedes?” I asked bluntly as I flipped some hair over my shoulder. ”The only bombshell in the same standing as you is Bea Barnhart! Do you even realize how low on the totem pole that makes you? Your one rung above the newcomers who have never wrestled here before, yeah, it’s that bad!”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”Talk about a fall from grace, am I right?” I asked with a grin as I paced around for a bit. ”Of course I’m right! Just because I’m one of the youngest members of the Bombshell Roster doesn’t mean I can perceive shit and this Sunday I’ll show you why any one of those moose would make for a better opponent than you Mercedes!

I am off course joking, those things are fucking massive and I’m pretty sure attempting to hit them with a Double Underhook DDT, AKA my finisher the Wolfe Hunt, will end in tears and a hospital visit if I’m lucky!” I added as I shook my head. ”And it would still be a better match than what I can drag out of Mercedes! To all my fans? In a world of fake queens and ancient bombshells with overinflated egos? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess! And Mercedes! Get your ancient ass ready because I’m Hungry Like the Wolfe!”

Harper stopped recording as the scene fades.

The week of Blaze of Glory XII was finally here and with it came the biggest match of Cassie’s career to date! Not only was it the Main Event but Cassie was facing Kayla Richards, Candy, Necra Octavian Kaine, Mercedes Vargas, Candy and the World Bombshell Champion Andrea Hernandez for the World Bombshell Championship in the Elimination Chamber Match! Can Cassie shock the world and win the title?

Backstage at Climax Control 416, San Diego, California
Sunday the 16th of February 2025, 18:00pm

It’s been over a month since I qualified for the Elimination Chamber Match by beating Alexandra and to be honest? It still doesn’t feel real.

I mean, yeah, I had help from Victoria Lyons as she wasn’t exactly thrilled at being ignored in favour of what was (at the time) an unknown prize and yeah, we would later learn that the match would be for the World Bombshell Title and the Main Event of Blaze of Glory but at that point? I just wanted to get a win under my belt, I have said that I wasn’t happy with how I won the qualifier match and that is the truth, I would’ve preferred a clean win.

But in the end? I got the win, and after a giant clusterfuck of a qualification process, I’m in a World Bombshell Title Match against five Bombshells who have all held titles in the past, including the reigning and defending champ.

No pressure right?

”Holy shit! I did it!” I muttered to myself after returning to the backstage area following the qualifier, at that point I wasn’t even thinking about the fact that Victoria had cost Alexandra the match, the only thing that mattered was that I had stamped my ticket to Blaze of Glory, all without Josh being at ringside for the match because he was managing Jessie at Wrestleleague on the same night that weekend. ”And all without Josh at ringside!”

”Congrats Cass, you did it!” Harper congratulated me as she walked up to me with a big grin on her face before we shared a big hug. ”Who knows? Maybe I’ll get a qualifier next week?”

”And endure the possibility of the High Stakes Rumble part two? I think I’ll pass.” I responded as I shook my head, ironically in hindsight? Harper getting a qualifier match probably would’ve made the whole process go a lot smoother, at the very least Christian wouldn’t have been scrambling to find replacements for two weeks in a row. ”I mean yeah, eliminating you would be a lot more involved than just throwing you over the top rope but my point still stands.”

”Yeah, I guess you’re right.” Harper nodded in agreement as she folded her arms, off course she would later earn herself a shot at Bella and the Bombshell Internet Title on he same show but that wasn’t until the end of the cycle. ”So, aside from me, who else would you not want to see qualify in the coming weeks?”

”I’m not even sure if Tempest still wrestles for the company so she’s out, Prudence would just be a pain to deal with and definitely not Bea.” I responded after thinking for a minute and in hindsight? Maybe I should start playing the state lottery considering none of them qualified, hell only Prudence got a match and she lost to a pregnant Bobbie! ”As for who I want to face? That’s a great question, I can’t shake the feeling that the World Bombshell Title will be involved somehow but if Andrea is added, does Kayla join her?”

”That would fill in the other two slots, but that still leaves two other slots to fill.” Harper nodded in agreement as she thought for a moment. ”I know Necra returned tonight but would they give her a qualifier so soon?”

”She is a Hall of Famer and former champ from back in the day, and let’s face it they didn’t waste any time in throwing me into the title picture after I showed up at Summer XXXTreme.” I responded with a nod as I thought over the roster. ”Think I’ll just wait to see how the rest of the qualifiers play out, I mean, how chaotic can it be?”

”I think you just jinxed the rest of the qualifiers.” Harper joked and yeah, hindsight? Maybe I did, but hindsight is 20/20 and all that. ”At least we know Josh will be proud of you when he gets back from managing Jessie at Wrestleleague!”

”Yeah, proud and ready to make me train my ass off in the coming weeks!” I responded with a grin and Harper nodded in agreement. ”Shall we celebrate with something to eat in catering?”

”Sounds like a plan.” Harper responded with a grin before we walked off.

Look, the fact that me and Mercedes ultimately ended up being the only participants in the women’s chamber match that earned their spot through qualifying matches may have made that whole conversation hilarious in hindsight but the match, after several weeks of scrambling, was set! Me, Mercedes, Kayla, Andrea, Necra and Candy! World Bombshell Title on the line! And yeah, after the weeks ticked on I couldn’t help but feel like I was in over my head but I wasn’t going to drop out of a chance of a lifetime.

And who knows? Maybe I’ll walk out of Blaze of Glory the World Bombshell Champion?

In case you haven’t noticed? The past month has been crazy as fuck! Basically everything that happened after my controversial win over Alexandra at Climax Control 416 has felt like a whirlwind to say the least and now I’m gearing up for the biggest challenge of my career.

Again, heading into the match with Alexandra, I wasn’t thinking about the chamber of whatever was at stake, I just wanted to secure myself a win! And while the result was tainted I’m still in the chamber match and I’m in position to possibly win the World Bombshell Championship! Just gotta get past Candy, Necra, Mercedes, Andrea and Kayla first! While the task is daunting the fact is that I’ve got just as good a chance as anyone else in the match.

Okay granted, I’m pretty sure some heads will explode if Mercedes is the last Bombshell left standing but still!

“Cass, I know the match on Sunday is intimidating but you have to stay focussed.” Josh instructed me after I took a break from training and I nodded. “This is the biggest match of your career, you have fought hard to get here and I know you’ll do well.”

”It’s not that I don’t think I’ll do well in the chamber.” I responded as I shook my head and Josh nodded. ”It’s just that the reality of the situation is setting in, I’ve got a one in six chance of becoming a World Champ this Sunday, how many other women my age can say that?”

“True, but diamonds are made through pressure.” Josh assured me and I grinned in response. “The bosses booked that match between you and Alexandra because they thought Alexandra would be a shoe in for the title, you proved them wrong.”

”And now’s my chance to prove everyone betting against me in this match wrong?” I asked before letting out a deep breath, thinking about an even that happened two years ago that haunted me. ”Do you remember the last time I was on Blaze of Glory?”

“Last time?” Josh asked with a confused look on his face and I nodded. “I thought you signed with SCW last Summer?”

”I did, but for a while, back when Krystal was on the Bombshell Roster? I basically acted as a hanger on for her, accompanying her to shows and all that.” I explained before letting out a deep breath. ”Then came Blaze of Glory X two years ago, the night Krystal joined the Saviours and attacked me just because I wanted some answers from her.”

“Right, I remember now, Krystal’s allegiance with The Saviors was ultimately short lived but her actions that night had ripple effects throughout the rest of the year.” Josh nodded as he got the idea before he frowned. “You never got over that attack, did you?”

”Hard to get over someone you looked up to and helped you through training turning her back on you like that.” I sighed before I let out a deep breath, ”Me and Krystal are on much better terms these days, she even called me when I was setting up the Home Gym last week to wish me luck in the chamber match, but it’s still a bad memory that I associate with the event that’s hosting the biggest match of my life.”

“Look, Cass, I’m no professional but you can’t let that haunt you forever.” Josh assured me and I nodded after letting out a deep breath. “Krystal was going through a lot during that time but she’s moved on, so can you.”

”Do I even need to point out what Krystal went through to move on? And hell, it was a while before I could even forgive her.” I sighed as I ran a hand through my hair. ”Who knows? Maybe I can use the chamber as some kind of aggressive therapy? If nothing else it’ll cost a hell of a lot less than going to see a therapist!”

“Is that including medical bills or not?” Josh asked dryly and I just shook my head. “And remember, therapy or not, you’re still fighting for the biggest prize in the Bombshell division.”

”Don’t I know it!” I responded before I resumed training.

Cassie’s Promo Room, Las Vegas, Nevada
Sunday the 23rd of March 2025, 21:00pm

*promo time*

As I got ready to cut my second promo for the Elimination Chamber Match I had quite a bit on my mind.

”You know, I was nervous as fuck during week one, just think about it for a second: most of my opponents have years of in ring experience over me on top of the title situations that I brought up during week one.” I stated as my five opponents appeared on the green screen behind me. ”But as we enter week two? A flood of memories came flashing back, and none of them good!

Need I remind you of what happened two years ago at Blaze of Glory?” The green screen showed Krystal’s attack on me at Blaze of Glory X, an even that set the tone for the rest of the year in more ways than one. ”Time heals all wounds or so they say, me and Krystal have since made amends but for the past two years? This incident has haunted me! And given how crazy fucking expensive therapy bills are? I’m going with an alternate treatment: taking it out on my opponents on root to HOPEFULLY winning the World Bombshell Title!”

And on that note?

”And I’m sure you’re not thrilled at being reminded of Krystal’s existence Andrea, the animosity between you and her is practically legendary!” I added as the green screen showed Andrea’s face. ”Unfortunately I felt that it was inevitable that I bring her up during the lead up to the match, and yeah, I could resolve all this by seeing a therapist about my issues, but why waste money like that?

After all, seeing a therapist won’t potentially see me winning the biggest prize in the Bombshell Division by the end of the night!” I added as I smirked a bit. ”I may have had a defeatist attitude during week one but with tis motivating me now? I feel like I can take on the world! Or at least take the World Bombshell Title!”

Speaking off!

”You know, I’ll be the first to admit that “Kayla having a grudging respect for me after wrestling me once” wasn’t on my 2025 bingo card, especially since the first match was a preview for the Chamber Match itself!” I scoffed as Kayla’s face appeared on the green screen behind me. ”Life can be funny like that sometimes huh? Here’s another example for you Kayla: here you are, entering the chamber wanting to take back “your” title as if the World Bombshell Championship was named after you or something!

Granted they may as well rename the Mixed Tag Team Titles so that they are named after you and Finn’s team that only you two can pronounce the last name off but I digress!” I added as I flipped some hair over my shoulder. ”But back to my point: wouldn’t it be funny if, after all your bluster? Lil old me was the one who eliminated you from the match Kayla? Your ego will tell you otherwise but it can happen and before you know it? You’ll be back to square one!”

And now for the others.

”And speaking of egomaniacs: I’m going from one who at least has credibility to the woman who’s easily the most delusional wrestler in this match!” I added as Mercedes’s face appeared on the screen behind me. ”Oh Mercedes, no matter how many times you drop the ball, no matter how many times you get beaten, especially in title matches, you get up make an excuse and come back for another round, the blackmail you have on the bosses must be something fierce!

But the truth is Mercy? Father time is coming for your ancient ass!” I stated with a smirk as I paced around a bit. ”And where will you go after you lose this one? Who knows and frankly? Who cares, this is my time to shine!”

And now for someone from the same era.

”As for you Necra? What’s there to say? You’re like Mercedes except you got out while you were still ahead and now you’re back.” I stated as I brushed some hair over my shoulder. ”I’ll admit, I don’t have as much to say about the last two opponents in the match as I do about Kayla, Andrea or Mercedes but for two different reasons, in your case?

It’s the fact that you are before my time.” I admitted honestly with a shrug. ”I know or what you’ve accomplished in SCW don’t get me wrong but I still have over a decade of wrestling to catch up, based on what I’ve seen so far? I am looking forward to going up against you but you are someone who’s back catalogue I need to catch up on.”

And finally?

”As for you Candy? You didn’t exactly have much to say in general during week one, did you?” I asked hypothetically as Candy’s face appeared on the screen behind me. ”Which is kinda surprising when you remember how you were added to the match! At least Necra made her voice heard but you? Nope, nada, nein, not a single peep.

And as a fellow PWS: Apex Alumni? I’m disappointed.” I admitted with a shrug before flipping some hair over my shoulder. ”Hopefully you prove me wrong during week two but until then? I look forward to going up against you in this match.”

It’s that simple.

”Going into this match I thought I was in for a Chamber of Horrors, but now? I’ve realized one thing: diamonds are made through pressure and who in this match has more pressure on her shoulders than me?” I asked hypothetically as I folded my arms. ”No one! That’s who! Everyone with an opinion on this match is expecting either Andrea to retain, Kaula to win back the title or hell, either Mercedes, Necra or Candy to shock everyone.

But me? No one expects the small, petite twenty one year old from down under to walk out the champion.” I added before grinning broadly. ”Which will make my win next Sunday all the more shocking!”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”This is now about more than just a title match to me, it’s about exorcising old demons attached to Blaze of Glory as a whole! And now, two years after someone I looked up to threatened to potentially end my wrestling career?” I shook my head as I thought back to that fateful night. ”I enter the chamber against Kayla, Necra, Candy, Mercedes and, of course, the World Bombshell Champion Andrea as a woman on a mission! I was a nineteen year old girl and barely a year out of wrestling school when Krystal attacked me, and now, two years later?

I return as a twenty one year old woman, ready to shock the world in the main event of this year’s edition of that very show!” I added as my opponents’ faces appeared on screen again. ”To all my fans? Don’t let life’s obstacles get you down because I let that incident haunt me for two fucking years! But more importantly? In a world of fake queens and therapy through violence? Be yourselves and be a rebel princess! And as for Andrea, Kayla, Mercedes, Candy and Necra? Be ready because I’m Hungry Like The Wolfe!”

I turned off the camera as the scene fades.

While the result was controversial thanks to the interference by Bombshell Roulette Champion Victoria Lyons? The results were in the history books: Cassie had defeated Alexandra Callaway to earn her spot in the Elimination Chamber Match at Blaze of Glory! And over the next few weeks the slots would be filled: Mercedes Vargas won the very first qualifier over Crystal Zdunich, Bobbie Dahl defeated Prudence Pierce to qualify, Kayla Richards and Andrea Hernandez were added to the fray after it was made a World Bombshell Championship Match and Candy was added after she won her return match over Ms. Manners.

However, Bobbie subsequently pulled out of the match when it was revealed that she was pregnant meaning that there was still another slot in the match to be filled! And to make things interesting? The bosses had booked a Strange Bedfellows Tag Team Match for the penultimate Climax Control of the cycle, in one corner? The World Bombshell Champion Andrea Hernandez and former World Bombshell Champion and Mixed Tag Team Champion Kayla Richards, in the other? Cassie and 2x Hall of Famer and former champion Mercedes Vargas! Can Cassie score the upset?

Monday the 3rd of March 2025, 11:00am

If you had told me, following my loss to Crystal at Inception VI, that I’d follow that up by challenging for the World Bombshell Championship at Blaze of Glory? I’d probably call you insane.

But that’s how it worked out three weeks ago at the first Climax Control of the Blaze of Glory Cycle: my match with Alexandra was one of two qualifiers being held that night (the first being Mercedes vs. Crystal in the opener) for the Bombshell Elimination Chamber Match! At the time no one knew what the prize for the winner was, the only thing that was announced at Inception was the fact that Blaze of Glory was going to host SCW’s first Elimination Chamber matches.

Could’ve sworn they had done such matches back in 2019 but I digress!

But yeah, heading into my latest match with Alexandra I wasn’t feeling that great about my chances considering that before that match I had yet to beat her,, whether it was in singles, multiperson, you get the idea! Hell I was almost wishing that I had been facing Mercedes instead because at least she was a fresh opponent.

And now to address the elephant in the room: yeah, Victoria Lyons cost Alexandra the match and I booked my ticket to the Elimination Chamber that night, ironically joining Mercedes as the first two women to qualify! Was I happy about how it went down? No, I would’ve preferred earning my spot fairly and I made that clear to Alexandra on Twitter later that night, at the end of the day a win’s a win, but the other qualifiers wouldn’t be so cut and dry.

The third qualifying match was supposed to be between Seleana Zdunich and Song and take place the following week, I say supposed too because both women had travel issues and the match got cancelled! Fast forward a week and a new qualifying match was announced: Bobbie Dahl vs. Prudence Pierce, Bobbie went on to win that match handily so surely, with Candy being announced as the latest entrant following her win over Ms. Manners in last night’s opener, the match was set in stone, right?

Surprise! Bobbie wrestled Prudence while pregnant and now she’s out of the match too! Though given how far Prudence has fallen from grace since her Blast from the Past win I shouldn’t be too surprised that she got her ass kicked by a pregnant woman!

Apparently there’s going to be an announcement this week but in the meantime, do you wanna know what me, Mercedes, Candy and whoever they pick as Bobbie’s replacement is will be fighting for? Here’s a hint, I mentioned it at the beginning! That’s right, it’s the World Bombshell Championship and the first two slots are being taken up by the champ Andrea Hernandez and the former champ Kayla Richards!

In the words on Ron Burgendy: Boy, That Escalated Quickly!

And speaking of this week: the bosses in their infinite wisdom have decided to create a bit of hype for the matches by booking two Strange Bedfellows Tag Team Matches featuring wrestlers from both chamber matches! In one corner: Kayla and Andrea, in the other corner: me and Mercedes.

Yeah, I’m not thrilled about this! honestly I would’ve taken Candy as a partner any day of the week!

”How is it that a cycle where I’ve only wrestled twice is shaping up to be one of the wildest of my SCW Career to date?!” I grunted to myself as my dog Sandy looked up at me from her laying position. ”Qualifying for a World Bombshell Title Match at my first Blaze of Glory, all the trouble the bosses have had finding wrestlers to fill in the last two slots after Song and Seleana’s travel issues and Bobbie’s pregnancy announcement? Almost makes me envy the guys, at least their match doesn’t have this much drama!”

“And you have been wondering when you were going to wrestle a Barnhart to be fair.” Josh pointed out as he entered the room and I glanced over at him, Josh had arrived about an hour ago to strategize for the elimination chamber match, at least that was the plan before I learned through Mercedes’s tweet that Bobbie was no longer in the match due to her pregnancy. “That said any strategy we were going to discuss was thrown out the window by Bobbie’s pregnancy announcement.”

”Leave it to me to go get a snack immediately after I filmed by bit for the aftermath of Bobbie’s match against Prudence.” I commented as I shook my head and Josh nodded in agreement. ”If I had known the catering line was that long I would’ve stuck around a bit longer! And look, I’m happy for Bobbie and all but this makes me glad that I’m both single AND gay!”

“True, less chance of a pregnancy derailing your career for most of the year that way.” Josh nodded in agreement as Sandy stood up and joined me on the couch. “Or the entire year depending on what month you get pregnant in.”

”Yeah, Bobbie got pregnant in March, that should mean that she’ll give birth around December, factor in recovery time which Harp told me was a big factor as to why Jessie didn’t return to wrestling for about a month after she gave birth to April.” I did the math in my head quickly before leaning my head back. ”We probably won’t see Bobbie on another SCW show until next January at the latest, of course I’m more focussed on that last slot in the chamber and who exactly will fill it now.”

“Candy’s already been confirmed as a participant so she won’t be announced, there’s also newcomers like Aaron Asphyxia and Lillith Locke that could get a sink or swim moment.” Josh reasoned and I nodded in agreement. “Or they add Harper to the match and it becomes the High Staks Rumble 2.0.”

”Ugh, on one hand, that whole saga led to me getting my first title match in SCW, on the other hand? That’s a headache that I’m in no hurry to relive!” I groaned as I thought back to the tail end of 2024/start of 2025 and my last tag match. ”And don’t even get me started on that tag match between Young Justice and Aleesha and Bella! And of course, that brings me back to my latest tag team match, me and Mercedes vs. Kayla and Andrea.” I sighed in frustration before I started stroking the Golden Lab that was sitting next to me. ”AKA one of the few instances where I’d rather team with my dog than another wrestler!”

“I know Mercedes’s history with Hero Academy is rocky, especially factoring in the fact that I had started managing Harper when she had that match against Mercedes at December 2 Dismember.” Josh nodded in acknowledgement and I let out a frustrated sigh. “But you’re teaming against the current World Bombshell Champion and the former champion, are you sure you can’t put your differences aside?”

”Have you seen what that bitch has tweeted?!” I asked pointedly before grabbing my phone, finding the tweet it question and showing it to Josh. ”She’s talking about carrying the team because I’m the youngest and least experienced wrestler inn the chamber match! As if she hasn’t been stinking up SCW cards for years and choking whenever she does get a title opportunity!”

“I’ll agree that this isn’t a great start.” Josh nodded in agreement as he read Mercedes’s tweet and my reply. “But if you enter this match divided Kayla and Andrea will take advantage of that! Don’t forget, Kayla held the Mixed Tag Team Championship with Finn for almost an entire year before Miles ended their first reign and Andrea has been around a lot longer than you.”

”They don’t have to deal with an over the hill 2x Hall of Famer with delusions of grandeur!” I countered as I rolled my eyes. ”Not to mention Mercy’s been coaxing on that past success for years at this point! Granted, Krystal was just as guilty of this but at least she tried put in an effort to make sure that her title reign wasn’t her only enduring legacy, and at this point Victoria’s on the fast track to beating her record!”

“Have you talked to Krystal about that?” Josh asked and I shook my head. “Just haven’t had time?”

”She brought it up once, when I showed up to last year’s Summer XXXTreme Cruise with a new SCW Contract in my hand.” I explained as I thought back to that weekend with a sigh. ”All she said was that she had made peace with the fact that someone was bound to break her record at some point long ago, whether she thought it’d happen so soon after her SCW Contract expired is another matter.”

“Victoria still has several more months before she gets to that point and for all we know Alexandra could end her reign at Blaze of Glory like she did to Bobbie during last year's Blast from the Past Tournament.” Josh reminded me and I nodded n agreement. “And if she does then you do have a claim to a title shot since you beat her to earn your spot in the Chamber match.”

”Assuming of course I don’t win the World Bombshell Championship.” I responded as I shook my head. ”I know the odds are against me when you look at who else is in the match but stranger things have happened in this sport.”

“Of course, and I’ll be there to help you reach that goal.” Josh nodded in response to my statement before the conversation drifted off.

Speed Dating Service, Las Vegas, Nevada
Thursday the 6th of March 2025, 13:00pm

On one hand I wanted a break from training and to get back on the dating scene after the breakup with Zoey and Becky, on the other hand? Well, this has been a bust.

It was hard enough finding a speed dating service that catered to lesbians like me but all the women I’ve talked too have either been much older or didn’t share my interests, so yeah, not a great start.

”Okay, we both like dogs, am into fitness.” I commented as I glanced at the attractive woman opposite me. ”What are your thoughts on metal? I love the stuff.”

“Ugh! That’s Satan’s music!” She responded and yeah, that was another dud. “But I can save you by throwing you into the arms of our lord and………..”

”Yeah, no, this ain’t gonna work.” I interrupted her as I shook my head and she stopped dead in her tracks, followed by an awkward silence as we waited for the three minutes to expire. ”Seriously, how can you be gay and claim to be Christian after everything conservative Christians have done to screw over gay people?” I muttered to myself after she moved on, a quick glance around confirmed that she was the last chance for the day. ”Should’ve stuck to online dating.”

Once the speed dating meeting had concluded I met Josh at his car alone. “Judging by your body language? That didn’t go well.” Josh commented as I walked up to him and I nodded.

”I appreciate you finding this service for me but it was a dud.” I sighed as I folded my arms. ”Had the best shot with the last woman because she volunteers at a animal shelter, loves dogs and was into fitness, but when I brought up metal it was game over because she described it as Satan’s Music.”

“That’s rough but they’ll be other opportunities.” Josh assured me before I got into his car and he joined me. “At least for now you can focus on the tag match.”

”True, and with my opposition and my partner? I need all the help I can get.” I sighed as I leaned my heads back against the headrest. ”If nothing else this was a welcome distraction from being stuck with an over the hill tag partner but still.”

“I know the partnership with Mercedes isn’t ideal to say the least, but if you want to bit Kayla and Andrea? You need to put up with it.” Josh responded with a nod of understanding before he started to drive off. “For now let’s get back to the gym so you can train.”

”Great idea.” I nodded in agreement before Josh drove off.

Cassie’s Promo Room, Las Vegas, Nevada
Thursday the 6th of March 2025, 21:00pm

*promo time*

Knowing that the tag match could very well set the tone for the Elimination Chamber Match I was entering this with a lot on my mind.

”You ever look at a match and wonder “what did I do to piss off Christian?”, well, those were my exact thoughts when I saw this Strange Bedfellows Tag Team Match!” I stated as the green screen behind me showed me, Mercedes, Kayla and Andrea. ”Look, I get he’s trying to create some more hype for this match and considering the clusterfuck the qualification process has been since me and Mercedes’s matches during week one I’m pretty sure Christian is close to drowning his sorrows in alcohol at this point but still, pairing me with Mercedes?

I know the match happened two years ago, but do you remember the last time Mercedes shared a ring with a Hero Academy graduate?” I asked before the match graphic for Harper’s match against Mercedes at the last December 2 Dismember appeared on the screen behind me. ”Yeah, it wasn’t pretty and you expect us to get along, never mind go up against the current World Bombshell Champion and the former World Bombshell Champion?”

Seriously!

”And because Mercedes is about as delusional as they get, she’s talking about carrying the team because I’m the youngest and least experienced wrestler in this match by a country mile!” I groaned as I rolled my eyes. ”The same Mercedes who hasn’t held a singles title in years? The same Mercedes who’s the poster girl for the perpetual challengers club? The same Mercedes who is treated as a joke by everyone BUT the bosses.

I swear, I’d be laughing if that idea didn’t piss me off to hell and back!” I added as I shook my head. ”And yeah, I haven’t held a singles title period, in fact unless one of the new girls gets added to this thing I might well be the only Bombshell in the Chamber without a title reign to her name, but I’ve put in a hell of a lot more effort in the past few months than Mercedes has in years!”

As for my opponents?

”But since this is a tag match I can’t really talk about it without bringing up the opposing team, one who’s had an iron grip on the mixed tag titles and another who’s had an iron grip on the Bombshell Internet Championship! I’d almost be tempted to call this team The Iron Hand!” I stated as Kayla and Andrea’s pictures appeared on the screen behind me. ”As for what I think of them? Well, Andrea’s turned over a new leaf since she was last in SCW and Kayla is the biggest bitch on the roster who’s an active wrestler.

Sorry Brooke Shields but managers don’t count!” I added as I shook my head. ”And no, I don’t mean the actress! But as far as wrestling is concerned? Andrea and Kayla are two of the best on the roster which again leads me to ask just what did I do to piss off Christian so badly that I got stuck with Mercedes as  my partner? Did Christian bet all his money on Alexandra beating me in my qualifying match and doesn’t want to punish Victoria for some reason?”

It’s that simple.

”Whatever the reason is, one thing is for sure: in both this match AND the Elimination Chamber, name of last participant notwithstanding, I’m the Odd One Out! I’m the only one in both matches, again barring the last participant, who hasn’t held a title in SCW and it hasn’t been for lack of trying either!” I added as I rolled my eyes. ”But does that mean I’m backing down from my opponents? Both in this tag match and in the chamber?

HELL NO!” I stated as I flipped some hair over my shoulder. ”No one expected me to win the Chamber Qualifier against Alexandra but here I am, who’s to say that I can’t repeat history at Blaze of Glory?”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”But we’re not talking about the Chamber Match just yet, we still have this Strange Bedfellows Tag Team Match and the fact that I’m stuck with Mercedes Vargas as my partner.” I added as I set out a deep breath. ”And look, Mercedes can talk all she wants about carrying this team to victory, if she wants to live in her deluded world of fantasy? Let her!

But I’m living in reality and if anyone’s carrying this team to a shock win? It’s going to be me!” I added as I threw up the devil horns. ”And let’s be real. The only contribution Mercedes will make towards the end is if and when she costs us the match, probably after I got tired of her pompous ass! Too all my fans? In a world of fake queens and Argentinian wrestlers who’s ego far outweighs their talent and relevancy? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess! But to Andrea and Kayla? Be ready because I’m hungry like the wolfe!”

I turned off the camera as the scene fades.

It was the week of the first Supercard of the year and Cassie’s match against Crystal Zdunich was at the forefront of her mind, especially after the controversial loss she and Harper suffered at the hands of Aleesha and Bella, can Cassie get the win?

Josh’s Gym, Las Vegas, Nevada
Wednesday the 29th of January 2025, 13:00pm

So, now that I’m officially moved back into Las Vegas and don’t have to take an eight hour drive just to train at either Hero Academy or Josh’s gym, what have I been up too?

Training off course.

I missed most of the first week of training because I was getting things set up for the move back to Vegas so once I got settled into my new home here in Vegas I started pushing myself even harder to make up for that fact, look, Supercard matches are hard enough to prepare for normally but when you’re going one on one with a Hall of Famer for the first time ever? The pressure increases tenfold.

Even if said Hall of Famer is easily the most controversial member of the Hall of Fame this side of Jessie Salco! Hell, Crystal was THE controversial Hall of Famer before Jessie was inducted as part of the Class of 2022 and at least Jessie has made it clear that she regrets some of the more controversial aspects of her wrestling career!

Crystal on the other hand? Well that’s a different story, or at least a more complicated story.

For several years it was never really clear which version of Crystal we were going to get, the nice friendly Crystal or the mean bitchy Crystal! The last time we saw her go full bitch mode was back in 2022 (appropriately enough) starting when she ended Chole Benton’s career as a wrestler at that year’s Summer XXXTreme and seemingly ended when she lost out on Most Hated to Masque.

She says she’s changed but from what I’ve heard, not many people believe that but me? Outside of that tag match after High Stakes and (off course) the High Stakes Rumble itself I haven’t really interacted with Crystal that much, will that change over the course of the next cycle?

Who fucking knows? I just want to put the bullshit with Aleesha behind me!

“You’re doing great Cass, but I’m worried.” Josh called out to me after I took a break and I turned to him. “I know you’ve been pushing yourself hard since the move but if you push yourself too hard you’ll injure yourself much like Aleesha did during her first year with SCW.”

”Yeah, allegedly.” I muttered under my breath as I rolled my eyes. ”I can’t help it if the move took up most of my training time last week, never mind the fact that I would’ve had to travel eight hours just to get my training done.”

“Those days are over, remember that.” Josh reminded me and I nodded in response to his statement. “And maybe we should’ve scheduled the move for the Christmas break instead.”

”I was thinking that during the week admittedly.” I nodded in agreement as I brushed some hair over my shoulder. ”But all that aside? I need to train hard for my match against Crystal.”

“I know and you have been working hard.” Josh nodded in response before I started pulling on the ring ropes to warm up for my next round of training. “Between here and Hero Academy? You have been working your butt off since the move, but if you injure yourself?”

”It’ll be all for nothing, I know the risks Josh.” I responded as I shook my head and Josh frowned. ”But say what you will about Crystal’s antics over the years? She’s still a Hall of Famer for a reason, even if most of  the roster doesn’t really take her seriously.”

“I can’t speak for either the men or other women on SCW’s roster, but she is a hell of a talent.” Josh responded as he leaned on the ring apron. “And she’s done this long enough to know the ring inside and out, she will give this match her all.”

”That I don’t doubt, I think a good chunk of the roster wants to make a good impression on the first Supercard of the year.” I nodded in agreement as I leaned my head back. ”And as long as I don’t get any distractions………….”

“Cassandra Thompson, why aren’t you answering your phone?” I groaned as he familiar voice rang out and my mom stepped into view, this wasn’t like the Go Gym or Hero Academy, Josh’s gym had an open door policy and anyone could come in, including family members. “I had to ask Harper about where you were.”

”Mom, I told you over text about the move back to Vegas, and I’m twenty one!” I protested as I turned to my mom. ”And I know you know about my match with Crystal.”

“I still expect you to answer your phone.” My mom retorted as she approached the ring. “And we have a matter to discus, something important.”

”Is it really more important than training for my next Supercard match?” I asked and mom gave me *that* look and I sighed. ”Josh?”

“You can take five, you were on a break anyway.” Josh assured me and I got out of the ring to meet with mom.

Outside Josh’s Gym, Las Vegas, Nevada
Wednesday the 29th of January 2025, 14:00pm

So, I kinda realized that my mom, up until this point at least, hasn’t factored into my SCW Career that much.

First, some background to get you up to speed: I was eighteen years old when I decided I wanted to be a wrestler, at the time I was living with my parents in Las Vegas having moved from Australia two years prior and their only condition for agreeing to enrol me was that I enrolled at a community college so I’d at least have a backup plan but since they couldn’t afford the Go Gym they settled for the PTA Gym, run by former SCW Superstar “Prime Time” Matthew Kennedy.

To make a long story short? I found out in a roundabout way that I was related to Krystal Wolfe, at the time the Bombshell Roulette Champion, initially I was led to believe that we were cousins but in reality we’re half sisters (and that’s an even longer story) but in the end? Matthew was brought out and the gym became Hero Academy, with me going on to be the first graduate, it was a long hard journey to get there and my mom was there every step of the way.

In her own “Aussie Soccer Mom” way off course!

Since I turned twenty one she’s taken something of a step back since I’m no longer the teenaged stoner metal chick who happened to be a wrestling prodigy (and hell, I’m not even a stoner these days, I gave that stuff up because of how limited it made my travel options) so yeah, I was a bit surprised when she showed up at the gym to say the least.

”Ten missed calls over two hours?” I sighed as I looked at my phone and then back at my mom. ”It didn’t occur to you that I might be training? I told you during the Hero Academy days: most training schools don’t let their students bring their phones out of the locker room.”

“I know but a text would’ve been nice.” My mom sighed and I just shook my head. “And I wanted to talk to you about your love life.”

”Seriously?! You interrupted my training for that?!” I asked with a incredulous look on my face. ”If this is about grandchildren then that ship sailed after I came out as a lesbian.”

“I know and it’s not about grandchildren, I know it’s unlikely to happen and I’ve accepted that.” My mom responded with a nod and I let out a deep breath. “I just want my daughter to be happy and you haven’t even thought about getting another girlfriend since you broke up with Becky and Zoey.”

”That was less a breakup and more us realizing that we were drifting apart and that Becky and Zoey just wanted to be a regular couple.” I sighed as I shook my head and my mom nodded. ”And I haven’t been focussed on my love life because my SCW Contract has taken up all of my time instead.”

“I understand that Cassie but you can’t stay single forever.” My mom responded and my frown deepened. “And wrestling can’t be your whole life.”

”Maybe, maybe not, and before you ask? I’m not dating another wrestler, whether it’s Harp or another member of the roster.” I responded with a frown as I folded my arms. ”I’ve seen way too much drama happen because of that. Not to mention the stiff competition we’d face for Couple of the Year, innuendo not intended.”

“True enough but it’s worth considering.” My mom assured me and I nodded. “Can I at least watch my daughter train?”

”You may as well whilst you’re here.” I responded before leading her back into the gym.

Cassie’s promo room, Las Vegas, Nevada
Wednesday the 29th of January 2025, 21:00pm

*promo time*

As I got ready to cut my final promo for the match I had one question in mind.

”Let’s be honest Crystal, what exactly brought us here?” I asked bluntly as I folded my arms. ”And don’t say our SCW Contracts, it’s my job to be the smartass here, not you! I mean what really brought this match together? I thought my beef over the past cycle was with Aleesha, not you! But I guess the bosses felt the need to throw us in a match didn’t they? And hey. I don’t mind.

So long as I get my first win of the year off course.”

I added with a big grin on my face.

”We’re both polar opposites off course, you’re a wrestling veteran and a hall of famer, I’m a hotshot rookie who hasn’t even been in the company for a year yet but I’ve already made waves in the Bombshell Division.” I stated with a smirk a I looked directly at the camera. ”But when you get right down to it? We’re both female high flyers so we should really steal the show on Sunday night, the real question is off course.

Who’s coming out with the win?”

It’s that simple.

”The young and hungry rookie or the old but still motivated veteran? And yes, I know I’ve been a wrestler for two years but that still counts as a rookie in my book.” I added before I folded my arms. ”For me the answers simple: it’s gonna be me! I’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain from winning this matchup Crystal but what will you lose?

Well I’d say dignity but most would argue that you lost that with the La Rosa Ardiente stunt.”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”Either way we’re both hungry for our first win of the year, I just happen to be fighting for my first Supercard win as well and at Inception VI? I will pick up that win over you at Inception VI and move onto the rest of the year, after that? Who knows?” I asked with a shrug of my shoulders. ”To all my fans? In a world of fake queens and Hall of Famers that most of the roster hate? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess! And to Crystal? Be ready because I’m Hungry Like The Wolfe!”

I turned off the camera as the scene fades.

Cassie gave it as good a fight as she could but she ultimately lost the Bombshell Internet Title Match to Aleesha Jones and just to rub salt in the wound Aleesha challenged Bella Madison to a rematch immediately afterwards for Inception VI! However the match was steeped in controversy because Guy With A Cape was the official for the match and he showed blatant bias towards Aleesha throughout the match,

But before that could be resolved and the title match settled? There was a Tag Team Match taking place at the Go Home Show before Inception VI that would see Young Justice team up once again, their opponents? Aleesha and Bellas! It was clear that Bella wasn’t done with the title scene having picked up a win over Bobbie Dahl in the first match of the year but Cassie and Harper were just as tenacious as the New Yorker, can they get the win?

Backstage at Climax Control 414, Reno, Nevada
Sunday the 12th of January 2025, 23:00pm

Fucking joke!

Aleesha made a big deal about me “going into business for myself” after she ended Bella’s title reign at the Christmas Special but when a ref going into business for himself benefits her she doesn’t even bat a fucking eye?!

That bitch is a paper champion and I should be the Bombshell Internet Champion by now!

And ass I stormed through the backstage area with Josh hot on my heels I was basically ready to get the hell out of Reno and start planning my move back to Vegas!

“Cassie, stop!” Josh called out to me and I just rolled my eyes before I continued down the hallway. “I get your were frustrated with Guy but slapping him? If that was any other referee…………”

”IF THAT WAS ANY OTHER REFEREE I’D BE A CHAMPION RIGHT NOW!” I snapped at him as I span on my heels and marched right up to Josh, I didn’t even care that the guy was almost a foot taller than me, I wasn’t backing down. ”Guy was bad enough in Logan Hunter’s debut match but how the fuck did he get assigned the first Main Event of the New Year?! That idiot robbed me and ruined what was one of the best matches of my career to date!”

“That still doesn’t excuse you slapping him!” Josh countered and I rolled my eyes in response. “You were trained by Team Hero you should know better!”

”Oh give me a fucking break!” I responded with an angry growl as I shook my head. ”My dog is better suited to being a referee to that face painted moron and Aleesha………..” Before I could even finish my thought I got a text through my phone and I checked it. ”New card text, didn’t think I’d get booked again this early.”

“It’s the Go Home Show before the first Supercard of the Year.” Josh responded with a nod as he leaned against the wall and I checked it. “So what’s up?”

”Something you’re gonna want to talk to Harper about.” I responded as I looked at the second match of the card. ”Young Justice are in Tag Team Action, and you’ll never guess who our opponents are.”

“Aleesha and Bella?” Josh responded as it dawned on him and I nodded in response. “Has Bella accepted Aleesha’s challenge for Inception?”

”To my knowledge? No, then again Aleesha just put out the challenge and after her win over Bobbie earlier tonight? You know Bella’s got momentum on her side.” I responded as I shook my head before reading the card preview. ”They at least got one thing right: I’m not done with the Bombshell Internet Title Scene but Harper? Outside of our match at the Christmas Special she hasn’t even had a whiff of the Bombshell Internet Title yet.”

“Yeah, and she was in the last Bombshell Qualifying Match for the Bombshell Roulette Title earlier tonight.” Josh nodded in agreement before sighing. “Look, I know you’re pissed but attacking referees isn’t the answer………..”

”Are we even sure that idiot’s a licensed ref? Because there’s no way he got his referee’s license with the shit he pulled tonight and in his first match as referee!” I interrupted Josh with a scoff as I shook my head. ”And besides, this only confirms one thing in my mind: Aleesha’s a paper champion!”

“Paper Champion?!” Josh asked with a surprised look on his face and I nodded. “How the hell does that make sense?!”

”Remember when I said she faked her injury to get out of defending the title again?” I asked as I folded my arms and Josh nodded. ”She’s that fucking insecure about her reign that she won’t stand by and let anyone ruin her moment for her, she showed that tonight and it’s as I said, if there was a competent ref in charge Aleesha would be at the back of the line right now!”

“Look, you believe what you want to believe and regardless of Guy’s competency you still attacked a ref so expect a fine from the bosses.” Josh pointed out that fact and I rolled my eyes. “Brooke got fined for attacking LJ in her first week, you know they’ll do it.”

”Maybe I’ll suggest that they take it out of the paper champion’s pay cheque since she owed her reign’s survival to him!” I scoffed as I rolled my eyes before making my way to the parking lot. ”I’ll be waiting by the car, unless Harper beat us to it she’ll still be somewhere in the arena.”

“I’ll go look for her but remember Cass.” Josh stated and I turned to him. “You’re supposed to be better than this.”

”And SCW’s supposed to have a higher standard for referees but what the fuck do I know?” I responded bluntly before I walked off.

Cassie’s Home, Reno, Nevada
Wednesday the 15th of January. 2025,  13:00pm

God it’s been a hell of a week.

Since my Internet Title Match against Aleesha last Sunday everyone’s been calling me out about slapping the ref even though the ref in question was Guy, the biggest fucking idiot on the SCW Roster! And to top it all off? The fine for that slap just came in and yeah, it’s a big one.

Look, I’m not exactly poor, I had that windfall from Jenny Tuck way back in 2022 after the fallout from the PTA Gym bullshit and aside from buying myself a gaming pc and all the current consoles I haven’t burned through all that money, though it didn’t hurt that I got a bit extra after I graduated from Hero Academy, but even so? This fine is still steep.

And before you say it “yOu sLapPeD a ReF, WhAt DiD YoU ExPecT”, you try putting up with an idiot who has no business being a referee in the first place AND THEN GET BACK TO ME! Frankly I should’ve just Wolfe Hunted his facepainted ass and called for a real ref to call the rest of the match!

My train of thought was interrupted when there was a knock at the door and I got up. ”It’s probably Harper, we are teaming up on Sunday after all.” I muttered to myself before I got up and answered the door, needless to say I wasn’t expecting to see HER. ”What the hell do you want Brooke?! And better yet, how did you find my address?!”

”Charming as ever.” Brooke Shields responded (and no, I don’t mean that actress from Speed 2) commented dryly as she folded her arms, she was dressed to ride her motorbike off course but I could see indications that she was wearing a crop top under her leather jacket, either way, she was hotter in person which was saying a lot. ”Look, I just rode over here on my motorbike, that’s an 8 hour drive and I left Logan alone at home, can you at least indulge me?”

”Sure, it’s not every day that a smoking hot redhead shows up at my door.” I sighed before I stood aside and let her in. ”And you still haven’t answered my question, what’s the deal Brooke?”

”The deal is that we have a common enemy.” Brooke responded as she turned to me with a grin on her face. ”A certain facepainted former wrestler masquerading as a referee!”

”You came all this way to talk about Guy With the Cape?!” I asked with a sceptical look on my face and Brooke. ”How much fuel do you have in your motorbike exactly?!”

”Oh puh-lease, I’ve owned my motorbike since I got my driver’s license, I know how to prep for long trips!” Brooke scoffed as she shook her head. ”And don’t bother asking about the return trip or offering me money for it, I put enough fuel in the thing to cover both trips and I’m not exactly hurting for cash!” Brooke added as she looked at her nails playfully. ”And that’s essentially why I’m here!”

”Wait, is this about the fine?!” I asked and Brooke nodded without hesitation. ”Why do you want to help me with that? Guy messed with Logan’s debut, not yours.”

”That may be true, but I’m also Logan’s manager, and I’ve had to spend the last few weeks, including the Christmas Break, talking him out of making a facepainted indentation on a steel chair by caving his head in! I’ve dated Logan since I enrolled at the Go Gym, he has anger issues for days, trust me on that.” Brooke explained as she sook her head and I raised an eyebrow. ”To put it bluntly Cass? You did what Logan wishes he did during his match, albeit in a far less violent way.”

”Hold on, anger issues?” I asked as concern started to set in. ”Was Logan ever violent with you Brooke?”

It was clear that Brooke wasn’t expecting that question because her usual cocky nature faltered for just a second, she quickly shook her head. ”Trust me Cass, everyone else at the Go Gym would’ve handed him his ass on a silver platter if I showed up to a training session with so much as a black eye!” Brooke insisted with a frown on her face. ”Domestic violence was never tolerated at the gym, as it should be for incredibly fucking obvious reasons, and that was reinforced after the truth about Carter’s ex-boyfriend became wildly known!”

”Yeah, I still remember that night in New Delhi where I stumbled upon their latest incident.” I responded with a shudder as I thought back to that fateful night right before 2022’s Violent Conduct. ”Haven’t talked to Carter about it since and I doubt he’s willing to relive those memories.”

”He doesn’t talk about those days full stop, pretty sure he wants to treat it like a nightmare that wasn’t real.” Brooke nodded in response to my comment before shifting gears. ”And besides, I appreciate the concern but he channels his anger into wrestling, plus while he’s much taller than me and quite a bit heavier? I can kick his ass in a straight up fight, just ask the other students at the Go Gym! Anyway, I know for my attack on LJ that Christian’s fines for intergender violence tend to be heavy, but intergender violence on a referee?”

”Yeah, it’s not pretty.” I responded as I shook my head, at which point Brooke opened the briefcase she had been carrying with her, it was money, lots of it. ”What is this?”

”Enough money to pay for your fine and then some, me and my twin sister Marissa did the math before I drove up, that should be more than enough.” Brooke explained as she set the briefcase on the countertop. ”Don’t bother offering to pay it back, I’m a trust fund kid with an OnlyFans and several wrestling contracts, I’ve got money to burn.”

”Clearly.” I commented dryly as I looked at the briefcase. ”One condition: you don’t breathe a word of this to anyone! I appreciate the gesture but you and Logan are on the fast track for the Most Hated award and it’s not even February! I’m friends with Carter, the Kaseys and Alexandra, not to mention you’re Josh’s main rival for manager of the year, I’d rather it not be known that you helped me out on the off chance it hurts my friendship with those guys.”

”That’s fair, and I was planning on keeping this a secret anyway.” Brooke responded as she slid the briefcase to me and I took it. ”Knowing how petty Christian can be? He’ll probably find a way to reject it if he knew.”

”Don’t I know it.” I scoffed as I rolled my eyes and Brooke made her way out of the house. ”Anyone ever tell you that you have a great ass Brooke?”

”About five times a day on my OnlyFans alone!” Brooke responded with a grin before she left.

Ulterior motive or not, I wasn’t about to turn this down, my plan was to pay for it in person at Climax Control, and hopefully? Christian would be none the wiser.

Especially with this tag team match coming up.

*promo time*

As I got ready for my promo we can see that I have a lot on my mind.

”I’m just going to repeat what I said on Twitter, X, whatever it’s fucking name is: Aleesha Jones is a Paper Champion!” I stated bluntly as I folded my arms. ”She was ready to dismiss me as a challenger before last Sunday’s Main Event and what happened? I took the fight to her! In fact, if it weren’t for the Moronic Referee with a Cape I’d be the champion right now!

Yeah, you heard me, Aleesha is a fluke champion, she fluked her way to winning the title from Bella because of the Christmas themed stipulation, she fluked her way to retaining the title over me and to add insult to injury? This bitch wants to go ahead and name Bella as her next challenger? No, fuck no!” I insisted as I flipped off the camera. ”Since when can a champion make a call like that?! I thought the general rule was that the former champion goes to the back of the line!”

I shook my head.

”So it’s fitting isn’t it that me and Harper are teaming up against Aleesha and Bella on Sunday night, right?” I asjed as I flipped some hair over my shoulder. ”The match preview was right on the money, I’m not done with Aleesha, not by a longshot! And while Harper lost her Triple Crown Match to Alicia, she’s just as hungry for singles gold as I am!

So what’s the situation here exactly, hmmm?” I asked as I folded my arms with a scowl on my face. ”Obviously Aleesha has momentum and a fuckton of luck on her side but Bella? She won the opening match of the year against Bobbie Dahl while me and Harper have suffered our first losses.” I commented before smirking. ”Guess that makes this an easy win for the champ and former champ, right? WRONG!”

Seriously!

”That just means that me and Harper have nothing to lose but everything to gain from getting the win here!” I stated as I started to pace around. ”This match is going to expose Aleesha as the fluke she is! And Bella? I respect the hell out of you babe, but you’re not getting in  between me and my rightful rematch with Aleesha! Yeah you heard me, MY RIGHTFUL REMATCH!

Did you really think I’d take Aleesha’s garbage comment to me after that moron with the cape practically handed her a successful title defence? Guess a fucking gain!” I spat to the ground as I seethed. ”That bitch shouldn’t get to make decisions like that just because she’s the Bombshell Internet Champion, especially after she only retained the title because she practically had the referee in her back pocket! And he has the gall to go around tweeting that he’s the best ref?! I wouldn’t trust him to ref a tiddlywinks game, let alone a wrestling match and frankly? I should’ve knocked his ass out and called for a real referee rather than just slap him!”

It's that simple.

”Yeah, yeah, I know, I got fined for that, if Christian had any backbone he’d either throw it out the window or take it out of Aleesha’s paycheque since Guy helped her retain!” I added with a scoff as I rolled my eyes. ”The fine’s being paid for on Sunday either way, that’s all you need to know, but you know what else is happening on Sunday? Go on, guess.

Young Justice will expose Aleesha as the Paper Champion she is and Bella as the unworthy challenger she is!” I added as I flipped some hair over my shoulder. ”And what better way to do that than to win a tag team match that was clearly set up to give Bella and Aleesha something to do on their first Go Home Show of the year?”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”Don’t answer that because we know the answer already! Aleesha is a piece if shit who is not worthy of being the Bombshell Internet Champion, Bella is a much better person but she lost the title to Aleesha in the first place, last I checked? The former champ is supposed to go to the back of the line!” I stated bluntly as I folded my arms. ”So in other words?

Fuck Aleesha, fuck that bullshit she said after the match and most importantly, fuck the notion that the former champ is getting a rematch this early!” I let out several deep breaths before I continued. ”To all my fans? In a world full of fake queens and fucking morons who think they are qualified to be refs and a champion who is nothing more than a fluke trying to call the shots? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess! And Aleesha and Bella? Be ready because I’m not standing for Aleesha’s bullshit and I’m Hungry Like the Wolfe!”

I turned off the camera as the scene fades.

To say that the tag team match between Harper and Cassie didn’t go as planned is putting it mildly as Harper inadvertently cost the team the match and only made things worse for the young duo! Now Cassie and Harp were facing off in the opening contest of the Christmas Show AKA the last Climax Control of the year and there was a prize at stake: whoever won would challenge either Bella Madison or Aleesha Jones for the Bombshell Internet Championship at Inception VI, the first PPV of the new year! Can their friendship survive?

Cassie’s Hotel Room, Long Beach, California
Sunday the 16th of December 2024, 21:30pm

She had one fucking job.

Me and Harper had the tag team match well at hand, all she needed to do was hit that dropkick and set me up to hit Mackenzie with The Coronation and score the three count, you wanna know what happened instead?

Harper took her time getting up to the top rope, too much time at that, and as a result? I’m still looking for my second win in SCW but the Christmas Special has given me an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

Not only am I competing in the last opening match of the year but it’s against Harper, and the winner will face the Bombshell Internet Champion for the title at Inception VI next month so yeah, there’s some pretty big stakes here! And for an extra bit of irony? The woman who won the High Stakes Rumble decided to use her opportunity to book herself against the Bombshell Internet Champion and that match is happening later in the night.

Granted, I called Aleesha using the match to try to regain the title she never lost from a mile away the moment she made it known that she was going to participate in the Rumble and there’s every chance that Bella could retain the title instead of dropping it but one thing’s for certain: either me or Harper are going to watch that match closely on Sunday!

Off course, the Internet Title situation isn’t the only thing lurking in the background of this match because the issues between me and Harper boiled over because of that tag team match and we’re not really on speaking terms, maybe we should’ve just had this match in the first place and leave London Crystal Underground out of it instead but what’s done is done.

My train of thought was interrupted by a knock at the door. ”Coming!” I called out to whoever was on the other side before I left the desk where I was keeping my laptop and answered the door. Seeing Josh standing there. ”Hey Josh, I take it you’ve seen the last Climax Control card of the year?”

“Saw it when I was checking in on Harper, can I come in?” Josh asked and I nodded before standing aside to let him in and closing the door behind us. “I don’t want to hear another word of your frustrations towards Harper for the ending of the tag team match, but you should know that she is extremely frustrated by the situation.”

”I had a feeling she should be because you know as well as I do that Harper shares a lot more than some genetics with Jessie.” I responded as I shook my head before returning to my laptop. ”And you’re really calling the end of Young Justice’s tag team debut in SCW and my feelings toward it frustrations?! Harper had one job that night!”

“Which she performed to the best of her abilities, unless you’re not talking about the tag team match as a whole.” Josh responded and the look I have him told him everything he needed to know. “You’re being unreasonable about this Cass the match went on for a while.”

”So did the High Stakes Rumble and her match against Bobbie but that didn’t stop her from winning the matter with a Phoenix Splash.” I countered as o shook my head and Josh just nodded. ”Look, I can rant about that shit all night but I’ve known you long enough to know that you don’t usually visit me or Harp in our hotel rooms unless there’s a good reason.”

“You are right, because I do need to tell you something.” Josh responded and I motioned for him to continue. “I won’t be accompanying you or Harper to the ring for the match.”

”That’s it? Huh, I was expecting something WAIT, WHAT?!” I  asked as it hit me and Josh nodded. ”I mean, you didn’t start managing me until after my singles match against Alexandra so it’s not that big an adjustment for me, but Harper?”

“I’ve already explained this to Harper but I can’t remain impartial when both of my clients are wrestling each other.” Josh explained as he folded his arms. “I had leeway with the rumble because there was no guarantee that you’d still be in the ring by the time Harper made her entrance.”

”Yeah, and we both know what happened there.” I sighed as I brushed some hair over my shoulder. ”And while it was every woman for themselves in that match, it was that elimination that led to this mess.”

“I still don’t begrudge Harper for signing herself up for the women’s rumble, it was an open invite match and she was frustrated that her second High Stakes match was going to be that baby wear match.” Josh nodded sympathetically as I shifted my weight. “But what’s done is done and for all we know you or Harper could end up challenging the winner of the Bombshell Rumble at Inception.”

”Talk about things coming full circle, right? Hell, my first match in SCW was in that proving ground tournament which saw me as one of five Bombshells who could’ve challenged Julianna at Violent Conduct.” I sighed as I folded my arms. ”Do you think they threw me in the deep end on purpose when I first arrived? Because of whom my half-sister is? Krystal’s Roulette Title Reign has remained untouched since it ended in 2022 and while Victoria seems like a good candidate for the one to break it, hell that new guy Logan also graduated from he Go Gym and he got Justin Smith as his first match.”

“It does seem like they were testing you under pressure early on, you got thrown into the Roulette Title Scene faster than Krystal did though to be fair she had a Christmas Break between her first two matches and her first title opportunity.” Josh nodded in agreement as he walked towards me. “It’s clear they see a lot of potential in you Cass, you haven’t had the easiest of starts but with my guidance you can achieve it, problem is? They also see that potential in Harper.”

”Except she didn’t get her first crack at a title until February of this year, that’s a whole six months.” I pointed out before I shrugged my shoulders. ”Who knows? Maybe she thinks that I’ve been getting preferential treatment from the SCW Brass and that’s fuelling her frustrations?”

“It’s possible, and I will keep an eye out for any further resentment once this mess has been dealt with, as for beating Harper? Aside from adapting to whatever the Christmas Wheel lands on, use your speed.” Josh advised me and I nodded. “You know as well as I do that she’s one of the best on the roster when it comes to submissions, you have the edge on speed.”

”Which is all well and good until I run face first into a weapon, let’s face it, Harper has the experience edge with Roulette style matches because she’s had two Roulette Title Matches this year, me? My Roulette Contenders Match was a Tables Elimination Match, that was already decided ahead of time.” I pointed out with a shrug and Josh nodded. ”Look, I don’t know if our friendship will be the same when the dust settles but I do want to make amends with Harp, I know how frustrating this whole mess has been for both of us but I’ve only made it worse by blaming her for how the tag match ended.”

“I believe you, and I know Harper feels the same.” Josh nodded as he went to leave. “But it’s up to you and Harper, regardless of match result. To make it happen.” Josh added before he left the room.

It’s been a very tiring couple of days since the penultimate Climax Control of the year aired.

With it being the week before Christmas I am getting some flak for my mom for working off course but it’s like I told her, I take my bookings when I get them, and I’m not about to drop out of a chance to earn a shot at a title that I started my SCW Career chasing.

Just sucks that I have to beat a friend to do it.

Speaking of Harp, we’re being kept separate again to avoid clashes, she’s getting her reps in at Hero Academy and Jessie’s Home Gym and I’m getting mine here and at the Go Gym (thanks to my ties with Krystal and all that), all to help us prepare for a contenders match with as little drama as possible.

And yeah, I know, wrestling and drama practically go hand in hand.

“Great job Cass, you’re coming along great.” Josh encouraged me and I glanced over at her after finishing my sparring match with the Hero Academy student Zara. “Zara, you’re coming along great as well.”

”What can I say? Team Hero works us hard, but the reps I’ve gotten at the Go Gym have helped a lot.” I responded with a grin as I walked over to the ropes and leaned on them to address Josh. ”Beating Harper however is a different matter.”

“I was sparring with Harp yesterday.” Zara chimed in and we turned to the taller woman. “She’s really driven but I can’t tell if it’s because of the title match at stake or because of all the drama that’s happened between you guys since High Stakes.”

”To be honest? I’m feeling pretty much the same.” I responded as I started stretching out the ring ropes for a warm up. ”Though the fact that I’ve been in contention for the Bombshell Internet Title twice now and fallen short both times before I could even get a whiff of the title doesn’t help!”

“Trust me Cass, I get it.” Zara nodded in understanding as she leaned back against the turnbuckle. “Harp feels the same way about the Bombshell Roulette Title, though she at least got a couple of title matches out of it.”

”Guess we do have a lot in common.” I commented with a grin as I brushed some hair over my shoulder. ”Don’t suppose she spilled the beans on how she’s strategizing for the match, did she?”

“Even if she did, I wouldn’t tell you.” Zara responded as she shook her head. “What happens in Hero Academy stays in Hero Academy, unless you get caught having sex in one of the practice rings.”

”Ugh, I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that Faith and Skylar weren’t kicked out immediately after that or that Keira didn’t burn that ring!” I commented with a shudder as that infamous moment came back to me, no pun intended. ”Hell, I didn’t even do that when I was dating Zoey and Becky!”

“That reminds me, what happened between you guys? One minute you were happy, the next they had broken it off with you and Zoey and Becky were dating.” Zara asked with a curious look on her face and I frowned. “Just wondering, that’s all.”

”We just drifted apart, alright? After a while the three way relationship just wasn’t working out and they moved back to Vegas.” I admitted with a sigh as I brushed some hair out of my eyes. ”I’ve been meaning to move back as well, I don’t think I need to tell you that a weekly commute from Reno to Vegas is hell on earth, but I wanted to make sure things were settled as far as my SCW Career was concerned.”

“If you want my help with that just let me know.” Josh chimed in and I glanced over at him. “I’m sure I can find you a place to stay in Vegas.”

”And here’s yet another reason why I wonder her Arte beat you to win Manager of the Year at High Stakes!” I commented with a grin and Josh shook his head with a chuckle before I turned my attention back to Zara. ”I’m ready to get back into it when you are Z.”

“As long as you mean a wrestling match? You’re on.” Zara responded with a grin before we resumed sparing .

*promo time*

As I got ready to cut my final promo of the year I had a lot on my mind as I leaned against the ring ropes.

”In hindsight? I probably should’ve seen this coming, the moment Christian learned that I’m friends with Harper was probably the moment where we went “yeah, I’m going to look for an excuse to book these girls against each other before the year is done” and find an excuse he did.” I commented as brushed some hair over my shoulder. ”In an ideal world the events of the High Stakes Rumble would be water under the bridge by now, we would’ve won the tag match against Chrystal and Mackenzie and whether we’d be booked for the Christmas special of Climax Control would be up in the air.

But we’re not living in an ideal world, Harp cost us the tag team match, the friction between us is so bad that we’re training at different facilities on different days, and off course? We’re fighting for a shot at the Bombshell Internet Championship at Inception VI this Sunday at the Christmas Special!”

I let out a deep breath as I folded my arms.

”Did I see this coming when I eliminated you from the Bombshell Rumble Harp? Honestly, no, I thought we had a mutual understanding that the match was every woman for themselves and let’s face it, if I could predict the future I’d be undefeated in SCW by now!” I added with a small grin on my face before shaking my head. ”Instead? Well, just look at what’s happened since then, our once bulletproof friendship is starting to show cracks and it’s all because of one rash decision I made in the heat of the moment.

Look, I’m not harping to harp on the rumble for much longer, no pun intended, but we can both agree that our recent troubles can be traced back to that match, things were only exasperated when we had that tag team match a few weeks ago and now we’re at this crossroads, for one of us the path will lead to Inception VI and a match with the Bombshell Internet Champ, for the other? Nothing but uncertainty.”

Yep.

”And yeah, I realize the irony behind the fact that the winner of the rumble used her guaranteed title match to get herself a shot at the very title we’re fighting for, Aleesha? Bella? No matter who wins the match at the Christmas Special know that I’ve got you in my sites!” I added as I made a finger gun point motion to the camera. ”Win or lose! But make no mistake Harper, we’re friends and we trained at the same wrestling gym, but does that mean I’m going to take it easy on you? Nope! Brooke and Logan have a better chance at winning Most Popular at the Year End Awards at next year’s High Stakes!

We’ve been straight with each other since day one Harp and this is no different, I you’re your strengths, I know your weaknesses, and I know your moveset inside and out, then again? You can say the same, can’t you? I have the speed advantage, you have the technical skills to counteract it, question is, what will determine the match?”

Good question.

”I can’t even say that it’ll come down to who’s hungrier for this, we graduated a year apart, won our first titles in our rookie years, joined SCW a year apart and haven’t had the same success in the title scene yet.” I added as I let out a deep breath. ”Hell, it could be argued that I had it easier when it came to your graduation, I  only had to deal with Keira, after accidentally busting her open, you had to deal with Jessie, Keira and Roxi in succession! Does that take away from how hard we work at our craft? Hell no!

But it does mean that this match is anyone’s game, either my speed and slight experience edge will see me as either Bella’s second challenger or Aleesha’s first or your tenacity and technical expertise will see you in that spot Harper! And that’s not even getting into other aspects like the Christmas themed Roulette Wheel.”

Oh yeah.

”We can train and prepare for this match all we can but if that wheel stops on a stipulation that neutralizes the aspects of our respective games that make us who we are as wrestlers? Then what are we left with?” I asked with a deep breath as I folded my arms. ”I guess in some ways his will be my test of how well I can handle myself in the Bombshell Roulette Division since that divisions is as about adapting to a new situation as it is your skill as a wrestler but no matter what Harper?”

Don’t hold back, because I won’t either!”

It’s that simple.

”Yeah, I know, that should go without saying, especially with a title shot at stake, but I want to make sure of one thing Harper, you’re not entering this match thinking of me as your friend and fellow Hero Academy graduate.” I let out a deep breath as I started to pace around the ring. ”I want you to enter this match thinking of me as the only obstacle in your path between you and the Bombshell Internet Title Match at Inception VI because that is what is on my mind ass well!

We both want that title Harper, we both want to win our first championships in SCW, don’t you fucking dare hold back!”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”Because the moment you hesitate is the moment I make you regret it after I book my ticket to Inception VI in January!” I added as I flipped some hair over my shoulder. ”That is the mindset I want from you Harper, I want a competitive match out of this, I want to go into the match at Inception VI feeling that I’ve earned it and I know for a god damn fact that you feel the same way! To all my fans? In a world of fake queens and potentially ruined friendships? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess, and too Harper? Good luck my friend because while we may be Best of Friends, are we Bitter Enemies? I fucking hope not! And I’m hungry like the wolfe!”

Cassie turned off the camera as the scene fades.

It was the week of High Stakes and Cassie was all set for the Open Invite Rumble, however so far only two additional Bombshells had signed themselves up for the match: Cassie’s partner in crime Harper Mason and the returning former Bombshell Internet Champion Aleesha Jones who had been forced to vacate the title due to injury a year ago, add in radio silent from Crystal, Seleana and Song and the fact that Alexandra was the only other Bombshell already in the match to speak her mind and things were getting interesting, can Cassie get the win?

Cassie’s Home, Reno, Nevada
Sunday the 17th of November 2024, 22:00pm

You know, I was expecting this match to be a bit crazier looking back.

Don’t get me wrong, Mercedes, Seleana, Crystal and Alexandra would’ve been tough competition on their own but with the Open Invite Stipulation? I don’t know, I guess I was expecting more than two faces to show up.

Instead only two additional names have thrown their names in the proverbial hat, and at least one of them was kind enough to let me know before she put her second set of vlogs out.

What are friends for right? I guess me facing Harp was bound to happen eventually but in my second Supercard match as a Bombshell? AND at High Stakes for that matter? Yeah, that was a bit unexpected even if Harp’s reasoning made sense, but the other name came out of nowhere, Aleesha Jones.

Last year she was the Bombshell Internet Champion heading into High Stakes but a injury during training forced her to vacate the title, it’s pretty obvious that she wants to pick up where the injury forced her to leave off and with the stipulation for the Open Invite Match? It’s pretty obvious that she’s using this match as a way to get back in the title picture.

We’ll see if she succeeds, because I’ll be damned if I let her get in my way.

”And that’s Harper off my list of potential participants in this match.” I muttered to myself as I scratched Harper’s name off the list. ”I probably could’ve scratched her name when she told me and Josh that she was signing up for the match but hey, at least I got it done! Now, how do I classify Aleesha? Wild card? I know she’s been active on Social Media but as far as I know she hasn’t wrestled since then.”

A knock at my door interrupted my train of thought and after checking off the “wild card” part of the list I went and answered it seeing Josh waiting for me. “Hey Cass, ready for High Stakes?” Josh greeted me and I nodded before letting him in. “We’ll be leaving for Tucson first thing in the morning.”

”Sounds good, just been thinking about the Open Invite Match actually.” I responded as I led him to the living room where Sandy greeted him with a wagging tail. ”Bit surprised that it was only Harp and Aleesha who signed themselves up for the match to be honest.”

“They’ll be others, bet on it.” Josh responded before he sat down on the couch. “I spoke to Harper and she’s fully committed to wrestling twice on the same night, I guess she inherited Jessie’s fighting spirit.”

”I guess so, that and her stubbornness and hot headed nature.” I nodded in agreement before I stretched my arms a bit. ”So what’s the plan? I live here in Reno and you and Harper live in Vegas, that’s a six hour drive alone.”

“Already got it sorted! I’ll pick you up around six am then get you back to Vegas where we’ll meet Harper at the airport.” Josh explained and I nodded as I got the idea. “Fight isn’t until 10:00am so we’ll have time to get breakfast out.”

”Sounds good to me! I know of a good diner not far from here that does a killer breakfast for pretty cheap, we can get it there.” I nodded in response before stretching a bit. ”So what do you think my chances are in Future Star of the Year? I know I joined SCW pretty late in the year but the bosses haven’t been shy about putting me in big matches, just look at my first Supercard Match! Harper had to wait until February before she was in title contention, me? I was put in the Roulette Contenders Match at my first Supercard!”

“Not to mention your debut match was in the Proving Ground Tournament, it’s clear that the bosses see a lot of potential in you and Harp.” Josh nodded in agreement and I grinned as I realized he was right. “I’d say you have a decent shot but Victoria and Harper might be your stiffest competition, not helped by the fact that Victoria’s only lost two matches.”

”One to Luna and then to Kayla, that’s definitely put her up there at least.” I nodded in agreement before I yawned a bit. ”Beyond that? I probably set a record for fastest time a new Bombshell has been put in title contention, whether it’s the Internet or Bombshell Roulette.”

“Speaking off.” Josh continued as he glanced at my list. “Any thoughts on what title you’ll go after if you win this?”

”Honestly? Probably the Bombshell Roulette, Krystal made her career on the back of that title and if Luna does dethrone Victoria this Sunday? I’ll have a leg up on the new champ!” I added with a big grin on my face and Josh nodded in response. ”Though if she doesn’t and Julianna retains over Bella I could always use it ro get that match we’ve talked about.”

“Yeah, you have a couple of options at least, and a whole week to make your mind up.” Josh responded with an encouraging nod and my grin grew wider. “Just bear in mind that I’ll be asking Harper the same question.”

”And knowing her, she’ll want something positive after the debacle with Bobbie.” I nodded in response before the topic drifted elsewhere.

Mt. Lemon, Tucson, Arizona

Have I ever mentioned that I have a bad leg? Well, I do!

Look, I used to play soccer when I was in high school, it’s where a lot of my athleticism came from and most of my wrestling offence is inspired by those days like the running soccer kick to the face (why yes, I did call it GOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLL for that reason) but that came to a halt after I suffered a leg injury following a bad tackle from another girl during practice, said girl was expelled from school when it emerged that she had premeditated it (long story) but my potential career in soccer and led to me eventually becoming a wrestler.

My leg isn’t as bad as it used to be (rehabbing it will do that) but it’s still a weak link in my wrestling and workout game, as you can imagine my leg doesn’t like it when I go hiking but, well, here I am.

“Come on Cass you’re trailing behind us.” Josh called out to me as he waited at the top of the mountain trail with Harper. “Didn’t you say that you were going to beat us?”

”I didn’t think it was going to be this steep!” I called back with a grunt before I caught up with them. ”And I told you about my bad leg when I took you on as my manager.”

“I know but it doesn’t stop you from training.” Josh responded as he stopped to let us have a break. “Besides, you can do your promo when we get up to the top.”

”It’ll be different from doing it in front of your green screen at least.” Harper responded with a nod before she sat down on a nearby rock. ”And I know you’ve been hiking before.”

”Yeah and my leg argues back every time.” I responded with a grunt as I sat next to her. ”So what’s the plan for the Open Invite Match? Because that’s my only match while Harper here is competing in the Open Invite Match and the match with Bobbie?”

“I’ll just be training her extra hard.” Josh responded as he leaned back against a nearby cliff face. “And don’t worry about your leg Cass, you’ve been wrestling on it since you were nineteen, right?”

”Yeah, I graduated from Hero Academy right after my nineteenth birthday.” I nodded in response to his question while giving my bad leg a shake. ”That doesn’t stop it from being a target for anyone with submission skills who knows about my old leg injury.”

“Then we need to work on you defending that leg as much as possible.” Josh nodded before he motioned to the rest of the trail. “And a good hike up the mountain should help strengthen the leg at least.”

”Could’ve just used leg weights at a local gym for the same effect but I digress.” I muttered under my breath before my and Harp followed Josh up the rest of the mountain trail.

*promo time*

As Josh got ready to film my second promo for High Stakes (and Harper hung around in the background) I was my usual self.

”What a view huh? Stunning, beautiful, breathtaking, but that’s enough about me!” I stated with a hair flip as I folded my arms. ”Behind me is the city of Tucson, Arizona, the site of my High Stakes debut this Sunday night! Now, as I mentioned last week, I’m in the Open Invite Match for the Bombshells and at the time the other confirmed competitors were Alexandra, Song, Mercedes and the Zdunichs but since then? A certain SOMEONE added herself to the match!”

”I told you before my vlogs went up, didn’t I?” Harper called back and I just shook my head.

”I know but still!” I responded before letting out a deep breath. ”So yeah, Harper’s in the match too but someone who gave up a title last year due to injury is also in the match too, hi Aleesha!” I added with a mock wave. ”I’m just gonna get the two new additions out of the way first since I don’t really have a lot to talk about when it comes to the others.”

This will be fun.

”Harp, before I get started, don’t take this seriously.” I called back to her and Harper gave me a thumbs up. ”As I mentioned, my partner in crime Harper added herself to the match because apparently wrestling one former Roulette Champion isn’t enough for her! I know Harper very well, as a friend and a wrestler, we train together, we hang out, we’re friends, we’re tag team partners but if I had my way? She won’t last long in the Rumble.”

”You know I can easily toss your ass out as well right?” Harper called back and I rolled my eyes as I shook my head. ”Hey you kept chiming in on one of my vlogs last week!”

”At least I was off camera due to filming the thing!” I called back before shaking my head. ”As for Aleesha, I have to wonder, just how much ring rust is there in Aleesha? I mean, she’s been gone for a whole year and as far as I know she hasn’t wrestled in that time, also Aleesha? If you win this match and don’t use it for a shot at the Internet Championship I’ll eat my hat!”

As for the rest.

”And now we get to the disappointing part and no, I don’t mean everything Seleana’s done since 2019! The fact that out of Alexandra Mercedes, Seleana, Crystal and Song, AKA the other confirmed wrestlers in this match, only Alexandra has made her voice heard.” I threw my hands up in frustration. ”I mean really, is this my competition heading into my first ever High Stakes? My best friend, Aleesha, a woman I’ve wrestled more times than anyone and the rest? At least Harper retired Laura Pheonix last year!” I added before shrugging. ”Eh, less competition between me and the prize right?”

It's that simple.

”Because what better way to cement my status as THE Future Star of the Year by winning this match?” I asked with a grin as I folded my arms. ”What’s that? What about Victoria? You mean the lady who got her Roulette Title Shot because she was buddies with the King for a Day? The double champ who won the mixed tag titles because Miles took a few selfies with the World Heavyweight Championship? Oh and by the way, just so we’re clear on the matter? WHEN I win this match I’ll have my eyes set on the Bombshell Roulette Championship! After all, I already have a win over Victoria’s challenger at High Stakes so why the fuck not?”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”Oh right, I still need to win the damn match first, silly me, I forgot! Oh and by the way? That was sarcasm!” I stated as I threw up the metal horns to the camera. ”And just to get it out of the way, good luck to anyone who joins up for this match after this promo airs because you’re gonna need it mate, nothing’s getting my way of me winning my first title in SCW, you could put an army of Bombshells past and present in front of me and I’d still come out on top, why? Because I’m “The Rebel Princess” Cassie Wolfe bitch!

To all my fans? In a world of fake queens and disappointing turnouts? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess! And to everyone else in the match? Good luck because I’m Hungry Like The Wolfe!”

Cassie was still in search of her first win in Sin City Wrestling after being the second Bombshell eliminated from the Roulette Contenders Match at Violent Conduct (being eliminated by eventual winner Luna) but Cassie wasn’t about to give up! As the road to High Stakes kicked off Cassie was set to go one on one with the runner up of the Tables Match Alexandra Callaway on the opening show of the cycle.

Cassie and Alexandra knew each other well as they were both PWS: Apex alumni and while Cassie’s arrival in SCW was later than Alexandra’s they had both made their way to Sin City, can Cassie get her first win?

Backstage at Violent Conduct, London, England
Sunday the 29th of September 2024, 22:00pm

Anyone who says this sport is easy can eat a bag of dicks!

I knew tonight’s match wasn’t going to be easy by any stretch, sure Seleana being in the match diluted things a little but Alexandra and Luna are still excellent wrestlers who have a lot more experience in the Roulette Division than me, still, my loss tonight still leaves me with a winless record in SCW and High Stakes is the next big show, scratch that, THE big show on the SCW Callender meaning that if there was a time for me to turn things around? This was it.

Well, not this exact time this my body is still aching from the Tables Match! At least Raine lost her bid for the Internet Title (in fact, no titles changed hands tonight) and by all accounts is already on her way out of the company.

In the words of Jeremy Clarkson: Oh no! Anyway!

I could rant all day long on the irony of the bitch who said I didn’t belong not even surviving pass her first cycle as a Bombshell but I’m going to put Raine where she belongs, in the past! I’ll have a clean slate heading into the High Stakes cycle and I’ll have a chance to get my first win in Sin City, regardless of who it’s against.

”Oh I’m going to be feeling that table match on the fight home to Nevada tomorrow!” I groaned as I felt my body ache, hardcore matches like Table Matches are always going to be extra painful but against four other women? It’s even harder. ”Just get to the hotel. Pop some painkillers and plan for the next cycle.”

”Was that you talking?” I glanced up and saw Harp approaching me with her arms crossed, she was somewhat lucky, in that she wasn’t booked tonight and was heading back to Vegas unscathed. ”So Krystal talking?”

”Both, Krystal said that painkillers helped her a lot during her first full year with SCW, especially after she won the Roulette Title.” I responded as I shook my head and Harper nodded as she got the idea. ”How she managed to avoid getting addicted I don’t know!”

”Probably knew how to pace herself or something.” Harper shrugged her shoulders in response to my comment and, well, it made more sense than anything I could come up with at least. ”Any plans for High Stakes?”

”If by that you mean “will you try the open challenge idea again and hope that the third time’s the charm” no, got burned by that backfiring twice and I’m not trying that again unless I win a title.” I responded as I shook my head and Harper nodded as she got the idea. ”And with Luna chasing after Victoria next? Who knows how long that wait will be.”

”There’s always the chance they’ll book you as a challenger over the next few weeks but yeah, I get your point.” Harper nodded in understanding as she leaned against the wall. ”As for me? I’ll take it as it comes, I was hoping that Violent Conduct would be the night I break my losing streak but you were the only Young Justice member booked.”

”Yeah, and you saw how that ended for me.” I sighed as I shook my head. ”I guess we’d better head back to the hotel.”

”I was going to say actually, Josh is driving me back to the hotel and he wanted to know if you wanted to hitch a ride.” Harper explained and I paused as I considered the idea. ”It’s a lot cheaper than getting a taxi or an uber at least.”

”Can’t argue with that logic, let’s go.” I nodded in agreement before I followed Harper to the parking lot.

Fast forward two weeks and I didn’t have to wait long for my next SCW Match and fittingly it was against the runner up from the tables match Alexandra Callaway, fitting, because of our history in PWS: Apex! Harp was also kicking things off against Bea Barnhart but I’ll leave that match too her.

Twenty one year old upstart against a 40 year old veteran, if nothing else, I’ll learn a lot from sharing a ring with her.

Hero Academy, Las Vegas, Nevada
Friday the 11th of October 2024, 16:00pm

A wise man once said, if you get booked for a wrestling match, train, I don’t know who that wise man is but screw it, that’s what I’ve been doing for most of the week.

Keira’s been around but I haven’t had a chance to chat with her, same with Harp really since she has her own match to worry about, but I’ve been focussed on my own thing and today that involved me training with a new recruit.

“Thanks for agreeing to train with me Cass.” The slightly younger (as in she just turned twenty) newbie said after we got n he ring and I started working out with the ring ropes. “Heck, I still remember when you debuted as Krystal’s younger cousin.”

”And I’m sure no one had an issue with the fact that I was seven years old when SCW first opened its doors made them feel old.” I responded as I shook my head and Hannah (the trainee) laughed a bit. ”Besides, I’ve only been a pro for two years now, I still remember what it was like to be a trainee at Hero Academy! And the PTA Gym to a much lesser extent.”

“Yeah, I guess that’s true.” Hannah nodded in response before she stepped forward. “Well, I’m ready when you are.”

”We’ll see about that.” I responded with a grin before we started sparring.

Obviously Hannah was a new recruit and thus much bellow my skill level but a sparring partner is a sparring partner, especially when everyone else isn’t available or taking a break and let’s be honest, she definitely picked up a few things from sparring with me, but the match had to end at some point and that point was when I dropped her with the Wolfe Hunt.

”You okay Hannah?” I checked on her after counting the three with my free hand ad she nodded. ”Wolfe Hunt still has some kinks to work out, always get nervous when I use it on a newbie.”

“I get it but I’m fine.” Hannah responded as she sat up after I got off her. “Why did you develop that move anyway when you’ve already got Heir to the Wolfe and The Coronation?”

”Heir to the Wolfe takes too long to set up and has many ways it can go wrong and there’s the risk that I’ll miss The Coronation.” I explained before helping Hannah up. ”Wolfe Hunt is quick, can be hit on anyone from Harp to Bobbie or even Tempest, assuming the latter doesn’t just power out of my attempt off course, but that doesn’t mean I can’t bust out the flashier moves when I need too.”

“True that.” Hannah nodded in agreement before she went to leave the ring to have her performance against me evaluated.

Off course, it’s one thing to go up against a raw rookie like Hannah, a veteran like Alexandra? She’s a whole different story.

Cassie’s promo room, Reno, Nevada

*promo time*

Here we go.

”The danger with multiperson elimination matches is if you take your eye off the ball for one second? the match is over for you, especially in a tables match.” I stated as the green screen showed me being put through a table by way of a Meteora from Luna at Violent Conduct. ”And as you can see here, I learned that the hard way on the way to my third less in SCW, but my opponent this week also learned that hard truth in London, in fact? She was the runner up in the match.

Hey there Alex, didn’t take long for me to clash with someone from Apex, did it?”

I said as the green screen showed Alexandra losing the match at Violent Conduct.

”Neither of us got the result we wanted at High Stakes, that much is obvious, at least we can say we outlasted Seleana right?” I asked with a grin before the green screen showed Seleana being put through the table at Violent Conduct. ”But here’s the thing Alexandra, I have a bit of extra motivation heading into our match. Remember Raine? Off course you don’t, she’s SCW’s One Hit Wonder of the Year! I don’t know if that’s an official award and we’ll soon find out with High Stakes drawing near of course, but in her short stay in SCW that bitch had the audacity to say that I didn’t belong here.

Remind me again, who’s winless and still here and who bailed after suffering her second loss?”

A question for the ages,

”The Raine may have dried up but I’m extra motivated to prove that idiot wrong! Or haven’t you noticed my little discourse with the Bombshell Internet Champion? And guess what? I’m using all that motivation to get me to my first win in SCW Alexandra and if it’s against you? All the better!”  I added as the camera showed the PWS: Apex logo. ”I know I was a late comer to PWS: Apex but I still wrestled there and we were set to face off right when the place closed, fast forward a year?

And our little match has gone from Apex To Sin!”

This will be fun.

”Setting aside our history in Apex? This match is a tale as old as wrestling itself! Me, the young upstart in SCW, 21 years old and two years in the business, and you, the respected veteran of the squared circle, the rest practically writes itself doesn’t it? The two of us have a competitive match until you put me away, right?” I asked before the green screen showed the word “NO” in big bold capital letters. ”No! Nope! Nada! Nitch! Nein! I won’t let my story be dictated by tradition! I don’t know if you’ve noticed but I’m hardly the picture of a squeaky clean rookie!

I have tattoos, s naval piercing, I listen to metal and love horror movies, I’m the antithesis of what tradition dictates because I’m my own person! I’ve never let anyone try to dictate who I am or what I should be and further more? I’m calling veto on the ending to this little story!”

It’s that simple.

”Because I’m not just some rookie looking to make everyone happy, I’m a sassy bitch who will out sass everyone I meet! Our little encounter at Violent Conduct was just the start Alexandra, this is the full show and I’m going to shock everyone by the end of it, how you ask?” I held up three fingers. ”It’ll end one of three ways, The Coronation, The Heir to the Wolfe, or the Wolfe Hunt!”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”Alexandra, as a veteran I respect you but as your opponent? I have to be the bearer of bad news: your old ass won’t keep up with me!” I stated as I flipped some hair over my shoulder. ”Because there’s a fucking reason why the three scenarios I just listed ended with me as the winner, because it’s written in the fucking stars! Maybe I’m just channelling some left over frustration for having my first cycle as a bombshell hijacked by female wrestler naming herself after rain #5000 but either way? I’m going all out!!

To all my fans? In a world of fake queens and one hit wonders? Be yourselves and be a rebel princess, and Alexandra? Be ready because I’m Hungry Life The Wolfe!”

I turned off the camera as the scene fades.

Cassie was still searching for her first win in Sin City Wrestling but she had apparently impressed the bosses enough to get added to a Roulette Contenders Match at Violent Conduct! And fittingly? It was a Table Elimination Match! But who was her opponents? Luna Pasilno, Alexandra Callaway, and Seleana Zdunich, can Cassie win?

 Harper’s  Loft, Las  Vegas, Nevada
Monday the 16th of September 2024, 15:00pm

 Well, last night didn’t go as planned.

I got knocked out by Raine but I look forward to her inevitable defeat at Julianna’s hands but me? Well I may be winless but I have to be doing something right because I’m competing for a Roulette Title Shot at Violent Conduct, sure Song dropping out of the match forced me to change plans but I’m still fighting three former champions for this shot, namely? Luna Pasilno, Alexandra Callaway, and  Seleana Zdunich.

Take out Seleana and Luna and you have a PWS: Apex reunion! Hell, I was going to take Alexandra on before  PWA closed it’s doors so it works out in a way.

In case you can’t tell? I’m entering this match with nothing to lose because I’m the only winless wrestler in  this match! I do plan on changing that as soon as possible and, well, it’s two weeks away but that’s still soon!

Anyway, today is my partner in  crime’s twentieth birthday and she wasn’t thrilled to be left off a Supercard card for the first time in her SCW career, so I’m bringing her some gifts to try to lift her spirits up.

And off course, the whole birthday thing helps.

”Got just about every piece of merc h from bands she likes on Bandcamp, had to get them in advance but still.” I muttered to myself as I looked at the bag before knocking on Harper’s door, she answered (alongside her dogs Logan and Xavier and grinned when she saw me. ”Happy birthday Harp, I figured you could use the pick me up after the card was released.”

”Thanks Cass, come in!” Harper responded before letting me in and  we met in the living room where I handed over my gifts to her. ”To be honest? I was told ahead of time about being left off, medics refused to clear me after that tumble to the outside  during the contenders match.”

”What? But the fall wasn’t even that  bad! I got knocked the fuck out but I’m  still in a tables match for a shot at either Bella or Victoria!” I pointed out with a confused look on my face. ”What gives?”

”Trust me Cass, I argued against it but they didn’t want to risk further injury even though I’m fine! Which is why I’ve directed my frustrations towards older Bombshells who aren’t nearly as deserving!” Harper grunted in annoyance as she ran a hand through her hair. ”Seriously! What kind of blackmail does Mercedes have to keep getting booked like this?! it’s not like anyone disputed my point about her relevance! But nope! Mercedes is going to go three for three in losing a triple threat match while I sit in the back!”

”At least you’re getting a chance to recharge.”  I pointed out and Harper just shook her head. ”How’s Jess doing? I know she gave birth last week.”

”She’s resting at her home, last update is, and I quote, that she is tired as fuck most of the time.” Harper responded as she shook her head and I nodded. ”It’ll be a while before she’s on SCW TV again, that’s all she told me, I’ll probably be the first to find out as far as the Bombshell Roster goes.”

”Sounds about right.” I nodded with a shrug before Harper started  going through my gifts for her. ”Remind me again, you’ve wrestled all three of my opponents right?”

”Only Alexandra and Seleana, Seleana was in the Queen for a Day Ladder Match and Alexandra faced me in that handicap match.” Harper corrected me and I nodded as I got the idea. ”Closest I’ve gotten to wrestling Luna was when she cost Sam Marlowe that match against me.”

”Right, right, when The Conspiracy were feuding with Ben and Sam back in February.” I nodded as I remembered the match in question. ”So you’re the wrong person to ask for advice?”

”Pretty much, still they are all former Roulette Champions and in Alexandra’s case? A two time champion, and yeah, it’s been five years since Seleana’s held a title but she still as that to her name.”  Harper nodded in response before she started stroking her dog. ”I still plan to be in London because I had a blast when we were there for the Unsolved Mysteries  Tour last year and besides, you need someone to cheer you on, right?”

”Right, and who knows? Maybe we’ll find a gig to attend like Jessie did with that Warbringer show.” I suggested with a grin and the conversation drifted off.

The World’s End, Camden, London. England
Thursday the 20th of September 2024, 18:00pm

London and I have a pretty good history.

Let me take you back to my rookie year, AKA 2022, Modern Pro Wrestling had just started  up here in London and was looking for talent, I was one of the first to join and within a few weeks? I was their first ever TV  Champion, opening up one of the busiest times in my life when I defended the title weekly in an open challenge, at one point while also competing in the World Title Tournament later on the same night.

I only won one of those matches, care to guess which one?

I held that title until I was screwed out of the title and management refused to give me a return  match, and to make matters worse? The place closed  before I even got a whiff of another title! Two years later and I’m still searching for my third title reign!

Maybe this tables elimination match will end that streak!

“Hey! Welcome to the World’s End!” The bartender greeted me as I pulled up a stall. “Can I get you something?”

”Just a soda for now.” I responded with a shrug and she started preparing my drink. ”I’m trying to keep things low key for now, only been in London for a day.”

“Really, where are you from?” The Bartender asked as she handed my drink over. “Because that doesn’t sound like an English accent.”

”It’s not, I’m originally from South Australia but I currently live in  Vegas.” I explained and the bartender nodded as she got the idea. ”In town for that big wrestling show in a couple of weeks, Sin City Wrestling?”

“Oh yeah, my brother has tickets for that show.”  The bartender responded with a grin. “So what? Are you here as a fan?”

”Close! I’m  one of the wrestlers.” I responded before taking a sip from my drink. ”I’m still new to the Bombshell Roster but I’m one of the c competitors in the Roulette Contenders Match.”

“You’re Cassie Wolfe? My brother’s been following you since the MPW days!” The bartender responded with a grin. “Hope you win the  match because they really did you dirty towards the end.”

”Tell me about it.” I grumbled in response to her statement as I rolled my eyes. ”Any shows at the Underworld coming up? Preferably  metal?”

“We have Kings of Thrash playing next month but that’s way after you return to the states.” The bartender responded as she shook her head after thinking for a minute and I nodded. “I have to get to the other customers but can  I get your autograph before you leave? For my brother.”

“Sure!” I responded and the bartender went about her business.

 Walking through Camden, London, England
  Friday  the 21st of September 2024,  14:00pm

*promo time*

Doing a promo via an iPhone on a selfie stick, can I be a more gen z wrestler?

”You know, considering I’ve lost both of my matches so far  in Sin City? The bosses were quick to put me in the Roulette Division, weren’t they? Granted, I’m not competing for a title yet  but I am in  a four way elimination table match against Luna Pasilno, Alexandra Callaway, and Seleana Zdunich so I have to ask this.” I stated before grinning broadly  at the camera. ”Who’s got wood?”

I shook my head with a laugh.

”Sorry, had to get that  joke out of  my system! But yeah, there’s three former Roulette Champions and little old me in this match! Granted Song was also in this match but  she pulled out, and I can think of a few wrestlers who I sincerely wish that their dads had pulled out on a fateful night but that’s a rant for another time, point is, I’m the underdog here, underwolfe if you will!” I added before flashing the horns. ”Guess what bitches? I’m used to it! Just like one of m y opponents is used to disappointing all twelve of the fans she has left.”

You know who it is!

”Seleana, AKA the Bombshell Division’s ultimate one hit wonder! You held the   Bombshell Roulette and World Bombshell Titles five years ago, hell it’s almost six years ago and since then? Diddly squat!” I added before  I shook my head. ”At least others in your spot seem to give aa shit but you’ve grown complacent! I may have only been sixteen at the time but I was still watching Sel and it’s funny how the mighty fall when their wife isn’t around!”

Next up Luna.

”Ahh Luna, I know you’ve had some things to say about  my home state back in Auss and especially Adelaide but what do you think about me?” I put my free hand to my ear mockingly. ” Oh what’s that? You can’t hear me over your inflated ego because you broke the champ’s undefeated steak? Call me when she loses cleanly! And I’ll pop your ego like a balloon while I’m at it!”

And last but not least  Alexandra.

”And we come to someone who is looking to earn a rematch with  Victoria  through this match because Vicky was the one to end her second reign Alexandra! We know each other well from PWS: Apex, in fact we were set to face off, key word being were because Apex closed before the match could take place!” I added as I flipped some gair over my shoulder. ”Maybe we’ll finally have that one on one match here in SCW  now that we’re both signed but until then? I got a title shot to earn!”

It's that simple,

”I have the most to gain from winning here because I  am the only winless  Bombshell in the match! And trust me  Luna, Seleana, and Alexandra, that’s a great motivator!”  I added with a big grin on my face. ”There’s probably a joke about wood and foursomes featuring four women I could make here but  nothing’s coming to mind! But seriously, you guys had better watch out!”

And with that I decided to wrap things up.

”It’s about time that the division had someone with a personality that wasn’t “super serious all the time” or “crazy bitch” as their champ and I think that a sassy little princess called Cassie is what’s needed.”   I added as I  flashed the horns. ”Luna? Alexandra? Seleana? Get in line! To all my fans? In a world of fake queens and unlikely champions? Be yourselves and be rebel princesses, and to my opponents? Be ready because  I’m Hungry Like the Wolfe!”

I turned off the camera as the scene fades.
