March 16th
Finally after months of constant bickering, the two biggest rivals of Jet City South Ruby Steele and Courtney Pierce were official as girlfriends. It had took a while for the two women to get to this point but finally after everything both women were finally able to get their feelings out there and admit that they had a crush on one another. Tonight had marked the couple’s very first date together and they had decided to go star gazing with one another. The two lay next to one another on a blanket as they looked up at the sky. Ruby smiled as Courtney smiled showing her each of the constellations.
“Look Prudence… You can see so many planets in the sky. That one is Mars, and that thing over there is Jupiter, Saturn is over there, you also can’t forget Uranus and Neptune… These are all the planets that we can see tonight…”
Ruby let out a smile as she nodded her head making sure to slowly turn her attention over to Courtney.
“OUTRAGEOUS!!!!”
Courtney giggles in return as she nods her head.
“Prue you aren’t looking at the sky. You keep looking at me. I take it you really love the view…”
Ruby nodded her head once again as nothing could take the wicked grin off of her lips.
“I love everything I see and honestly I like spending time with you. Deep down I think this is what I have been wanting for a long time. It’s funny how people can come together. I never even expected to really crush on you like I have. Some of those early days in Jet City were really tough…”
Courtney smiles in return.
“So I take it you really love your birthday present… I will admit I am not one who has an easy time showcasing her feelings. The only thing I really like to show a lot of passion for is my wrestling career, but it’s moments like these that I love a lot. In Long Beach I used to spend a lot of time with my father at parks looking up at the stars. I saw a lot of shooting stars and I made some wishes to find my way into wrestling. I always loved to dream big… I was excited to get trained by Mikah and when SCW re-launched I knew I had to jump right into the fray. Mikah didn’t want me too but I did it anyway and long behold I won myself a Blast From The Past tournament…”
Ruby nods her head with a smirk.
“That sounds really amazing and honestly wrestling wasn’t on the radar. However after coming to Kate’s aid during that match and being decked in the face by Mackenzie, and having Odette land on all of the Gem Stones. I knew I needed to get some training. Hell all of the girls wanted to get trained…”
Courtney smiles in return.
“And I am so glad that you did because you coming to the gym allowed the two of us to meet. I know Mikah doesn’t give compliments often but she really has taken a liking to you, and the training that you have done has gotten you this far in the tournament. Now you need to finish the job and actually win the tournament. Bring home that big win and make a huge impact on the company. Let people know you are to be taken seriously…”
Ruby can’t help but smile even wider as she gazes back up at the stars.
“Now that would be absolutely amazing. My birthday has been nothing short of amazing. All of my dreams have come true. I have found the woman of my dreams and I am in the finale of a huge tournament with the chance to win my very first championship belt. If you told me before I even stepped foot in the ring that I would beat Mikah, and have a pin fall victory over Roxi Johnson I would say you are fantasizing. Yet here I am and it’s all real. It isn’t a dream…”
Ruby quickly shakes her head as she begins to frown.
“As good as all of sounds I know nobody will even take it seriously though. Nobody will ever take ME seriously. In their eyes I will just be a bargain bin Kate Steele. I will always be compared to my cousin and it’s not fair. On top of that I just feel like my father will never approve of me. When I tried to do the music thing he just shrugged it off because he really didn’t believe in my passion for music. He acted like I couldn’t amount to anything, and now look at me. I am in a rock band and we were having success until the Corona virus came around. I just don’t know anymore…”
Courtney grins in return.
“Some success your band made a big movie. On top of that you were touring around the world. That in itself is really impressive and you shouldn’t feel any type of guilt because you have done the best you possibly can. I think you aren’t giving your father that much credit though. I know you must think he hates you but I personally think he only wants the best for you. “
Ruby just sighs in return.
“And how do you know this?!”
“I know because I had parents who were the same way. They wanted to see me accomplish everything but when it came to wrestling it was just a different story. They didn’t want me to jump into things until I was 18 and…”
Courtney shakes her head.
“That doesn’t even matter. What does matter however is that your birthday isn’t done! I still didn’t get a chance to give you a gift…”
Ruby opens her eyes in amazement.
“A gift, I thought you becoming my girlfriend was already a present!”
“Actually that was something we both enjoy. I don’t know how fair it is to make that your ONLY gift. Besides as your girlfriend I feel like you deserve something more from me. So here you go Prue. I really hope you enjoy this and let it be known that you are absolutely amazing and deserve the entire world!”
With that being said Courtney offers a wide grin and it isn’t that long before footsteps could be heard coming from behind the couple. Those footsteps belong to that of Rebecca and Anthony Steele, Ruby’s parents. Anthony smiled as he looked down at his daughter and reached out to her.
“Evening darling… Tonight seems like a great night to look at the stars doesn’t it?!”
Once Ruby heard her father’s voice she quickly jumped up and ran right to him. She hugged him tightly as she gazed up into his eyes.
“DADDY!!!! MUMMY!!!!!!”
Her attention moved over to her parents as she looked at both of them. The Welsh woman and English man could only smirk as she continued to speak to them.
“What are you doing here?!”
Her father however just smirked as he looked back at her.
“Bloody hell can’t a pair of parents come visit their daughter?! We were supposed to be at your surprise birthday party last night but there were issues with traveling. What matters is that we are here now and that’s all that matters right?!”
Ruby’s mom smirks in return.
“We just had to support our little girl. Your friend here told us this was all a big deal for you. We really didn’t understand how important all of this meant but it seems like you have the chance to move your wrestling career in the right direction. We figured we might as well come to the states and see our little girl for ourselves. You came this far so we might as well travel far to see you accomplish your dreams…”
Anthony grabs a hold of Ruby as he looks deeply into her eyes.
“Listen pumpkin… I know I might not have said this a lot but I just want you to know that I am proud of you. I have always been proud of you. I know you might think there are differences between us but in reality the only thing I EVER wanted to see from you is for you to do whatever it took to chase after your dreams. Everything that you told us when you left England you ended up achieving. You filmed a movie, you made an album, and you have a big record contract. Bloody hell you are doing alright for yourself. That’s all I ever wanted and you have knocked everything right out of the park. When you go out there and wrestle I just want you to do your best…”
Rebecca quickly shakes her head.
“Don’t lie to our girl… You know there’s no such thing as participation trophies… You better go out there and win!”
Anthony smiles looking at his daughter with a smirk.
“I couldn’t have said it better myself. You should be happy. It seems like you found a really good friend in Courtney. She cares about you a lot…”
Ruby looks over at Courtney who just stands there glancing back. Ruby grabs her by the hand and brings her towards her parents. A smile escapes Ruby before she meets with that of her parents.
“Daddy… Mum… I have something to confess about Courtney. I appreciate her telling you about everything. This is honestly a birthday I won’t forget and I am very thankful but when it comes to her… Well… She’s not just my friend but… She’s my g……”
Anthony however stops her daughter as he shakes her head at her.
“You don’t even have to say that statement. I am not going to judge you Prudence… We can tell just by the way you look at her. It also doesn’t help that your sister Phoebe has a big mouth and can’t keep a secret for anything…”
Ruby begins to stomp her feet.
“I swear to God I am going to kill her!!!!”
Anthony nods his head.
“I wouldn’t mind if you did to be honest… That’s your mother’s daughter… She has nothing to do with me and…”
Rebecca looks back at her.
“ANTHONY!!! I would appreciate if you didn’t speak about my daughter like that…”
He nods his head.
“Cheers… Listen the only thing that matters is that we want to be in your life. We don’t want to miss any moments. You can love whoever you wish and do whatever you want to do. We just want to be in your life and consider this the very first step in us being there for you… That is if you would have us…”
Ruby’s eyes light up as she smiles wide.
“Of course you can be in my life!!! This is what I wanted for so long!!! Thank you so much for flying this far to see me, I promise that this trip is going to be worth it. I am going to beat the brakes off of Myra Rivers. I will be in position to be a CHAMPION and even a better position to be a WORLD CHAMPION… How could I ever deny any of you… This is all I ever wanted…”
Anthony smiles hugging his daughter.
“Good because you are going to get exactly what you wanted. I will be there for all of your big moments. This is only the beginning and you will be getting so much more than that…”
“Much more, I don’t see how it could get any better than this…”
Anthony smiles as he looks behind a cliff, and yells at the top of his lungs.
“GEM STONES… PLAY THAT SONG WE TALKED ABOUT… IN HONOUR OF MY DAUGHTER’S LOVE FOR COURTNEY AND OF COURSE MY LOVE TOWARDS MY DAUGHTER!!!”
Ruby’s eyes open wide up and it is at that instance that she can see her cousin Diamond emerge with a guitar around her neck and connected to an amp. There is a microphone stand in front of her. Ruby’s sister Sapphire has a guitar around her neck and of course their friend Emerald is behind a drumstick. On the count of three they begin to sing a very famous Backstreet Boys song.
“I DON’T CARE WHO ARE, WHERE YOU’RE FROM AS LONG AS YOU LOVE ME!!!!!!!!!”
Ruby shakes her head as her eyes move to that of her father. She is on the verge of tears as she speaks out to them.
“This is all too much daddy… I really don’t know what to say…”
Her father smiles in return as he begins to speak some more.
“I know you could sit here with all of the tears but you don’t need to say anything. Just continue being yourself. Although I do believe there is a girlfriend standing over there who wants your attention so you might as well give her some sugar!”
Ruby turns her attention to Courtney as her eyes instantly light up. The two of them can’t help but giggle at one another as they reply back to daddy Steele.
“Daddy… That’s OUTRAGEOUS!!!”
Ruby chimes in.
“I am not going to do that… That’s just awkward. We can save that for what we do behind closed doors. I rather just focus on enjoying the night with my favourite people into the entire world. What’s not to love about being with my girlfriend, and my family! I don’t think it gets any better than this…”
Courtney smiles as she looks back at her girlfriend.
“Oh there is definitely one way it could… About the nickname Garnet that you tried to give me… I think it would fit me. After all it is my birthstone and it makes me fit with you…”
Ruby smiles in return.
“Whatever you say my Garnet… Let’s just enjoy this night tonight together. There’s nothing better than that of friends and family. We have huge matches ahead of us. You will finally beat that losing streak and just like my girlfriend a few years prior. I could walk out as the winner of the Blast From The Past tournament…”
Courtney smiles as she hugs her girlfriend.
“You got this babe… This is all you… You seize the moment and do the very thing that everybody wants you to do. Go win this tournament and place your name in the history books of SCW…”
“Oh I plan too but you better beat Bella… At Blaze of Glory we will both have our moment… I just have faith in all of that…”
The two lovebirds giggle at one another. Everybody looks up at the sky as they just continue to enjoy each other’s company. It is on this image that we slowly leave fade out on.
On Camera
Everything comes into focus and as it does we are treated to the sight of Ruby Steele with a bass guitar around her shoulder. She strums away as she offers a wide grin to that of the camera.
“Music is so soothing to the soul. It’s everything to me and there is no greater feeling than the sound of listening to something that you like a lot. However the best type of music that I could possibly be exposed to this coming weekend is to hear the sweet sound of Justin announcing that Ruby Steele is the winner of the 2021 Blast From The Past tournament. At the end of the day that is all this has ever been about. I am willing to do whatever it takes to get there but I need to overcome the woman in front of me. I just have to get past Myra and everything I could have ever imagined would be mine for the taking.
It seems like fate has brought the two of us together Myra… Now after listening to what you had to say to be quite honest I find you to be a bloody fucking idiot. You have no idea what I am even about or what I intend to do. Everybody is quick to assume that this is all about Kate. They all act like I am here in trying to fight my cousin’s battles and surely if that was the case I would have chased after Evie after immediately signing my name on an SCW contract. She is the one who humiliated her by beating a submission expert with a submission hold. She and my cousin have a bitter feud that doesn’t seem to end and that would have been my choice of target but it wasn’t…
The reason why I even decided to become a wrestler wasn’t to follow in her footsteps but it was to pave my own way and find my own place in the world. After getting beaten down by Mackenzie in trying to help my cousin in that big match that she had. I needed to figure out ways to defend my own wellbeing. I needed to figure out more about myself.
In the eyes of everyone I am merely Kate’s little cousin. I am in her shadow and because we have the same surname I will always be linked to her. When the band made its way to Jet City South I deliberately made it my goal to be trained by Mikah because I wanted to be different. Kate might be good but Mikah is the very best and in turn I want to be the test. This match isn’t about trying to fight for anybody other than myself because I want to stand out into the spotlight. You think I am content with simply being in a band and being an accompanying member?!
If I was happy I wouldn’t have jumped so quickly into the fray and I definitely wouldn’t have signed up to be in this tournament. The fact of the matter is I want my own name to mean something and look how far I have gotten on my work ethic and my own merit. I am in the finals and in position to be the winner of this entire thing.
Whatever vendetta you think I might have, it’s honestly full of shit. You can sit there on your high horse and try to speak a bunch of poppycock that makes little to no sense. Trying to question me on if I know what I am in for and how this might be a wakeup call. Bitch have you not been paying attention?! On paper nobody’s journey to the finale has been as tough as mine. I had to face the best Bombshell ever. I had to face Roxi Johnson and now I am standing down at the longest reigning Internet Champion of ALL TIME…
That’s a hell of a lineup that I had to deal with. By logic I shouldn’t even be here but BLOODY HELL LOOK AT ME I FUCKING AM!!! Whether Daniel was in the ring or Mark Cross they can only fight for so long but as soon as a tag is made I had to come in and actually do something. I showed everybody that I could hold my own and because of my ability I was competent enough to make it this far. I think that DDT on Roxi is a sound that could be heard all throughout this company, but you don’t want to listen because you are still about stroking your own ego.
It’s really ridiculous if you ask me. You are on about this redemption tour and you are hoping you can win the right way. You hope you can make amends for your past mistakes so that you can go about winning a title the right way… Instead of focusing on how I live your life why don’t you go work things out with Andrea Hernandez, after all weren’t you a bully to her back in the day. Wasn’t it your actions that caused her to go off the deep end, and now she’s going about burying the legitimacy of this tournament because she felt with Bill Barnhart she got the short end of the stick last year?!
If you really want redemption work on that relationship, because I feel the mark you make on others will have a bigger impact than that of winning titles or accolades. It will build up the future but you don’t think of that because you only think about yourself…
I understand it though… Go ahead and point the finger at me and try to question if my place in this tournament is legitimate. Try to undersell my achievements and what I have done since day fucking one. I mean that’s what you were trying to question if I would have been here with Daniel instead of Mark, and the answer to that question is absolutely yes. Daniel may not have the flashiness of a singles star but he has made a name being a tag team specialist. Last ever superstars tag team champion, first ever Mixed tag team champion, and won that title a second time.
He might very well be the best male star to have as a tag specialist in this tournament. You don’t see that though because you try to make points that make no sense. You wish to even use my cousin against me forcing the fact that you were better than her but let me explain something just so you get it in your skull.
When Kate fought you she had done all she could have done with the Internet title. She broke all of the records just like she had done with the Roulette Championship when she held it years ago. She was honestly looking to fight worthy challengers and once dropping it would move on to the World Championship picture.
You might have beat her and I won’t deny that but last year she was defending against women like Roxi Johnson, Keira Johnson, and Evie Jordan… All of those women happened to win the World Championship last year. What in the bloody fuck have you done to even warrant yourself to even be considered a great champion?!
It’s all been a joke… I mean no disrespect to anybody you fought but let’s be honest. The only time that you truly take things seriously or go all out is when you are facing tough competition. That was all before you even had the championship. You were fighting Amber Ryan, and you beat Alicia Lukas. All of those things you did in order to stand out. However when you get the title you become complacent and don’t have that same energy…
It’s bullshit and you know it! If being like my cousin in trying to fight the very best and offering YOU a championship match because she knew you were a threat is a bad thing. By all means I would take that as a compliment because we are fighters. We always are looking for a challenge and won’t stop until we get that fight.
I could only imagine what would happen if you managed to win this tournament. If we judge your Internet Championship reign you would probably be requesting people who don’t even deserve it. Let’s bring back Traci Patterson because hey she deserves one! Or hey Alice Knight is off and on let’s give her a shot or maybe bring Pandora back in because that certainly would sell right?!
It’s a joke and honestly it would be OUTRAGEOUS… You may have broken a record but you haven’t done ANYTHING that really stands out.
You think I am going to let you get in my way and stop me from accomplishing something I want badly?! This week has been the best week of my entire life. I now have an amazing girlfriend in my life in Courtney Pierce who is cheering me on. My family has flown all the way from England to watch me accomplish something.
All of my life I have been denied. I have been told by Britain’s Got Talent that I wasn’t good enough to sing, and guess what I am now in a band.
I was told that I wouldn’t amount to anything because I wasn’t special, and I went on to film a movie with Christina’s studio…
I was told I was too small to wrestle and I happen to be undefeated beating Hall of Famers…
Now here you are questioning that I might hold a grudge because of what you did to Kate and honestly I don’t give a damn. I know the Internet Championship might be billed as being part of this match and as nice as it sounds to have that title around my waist. I want more than that… I don’t want to settle for second best. I want to be the VERY BEST and my eyes are on competing for the World Championship at the next Super Card. That has always been the destination and the end goal.
Besides this Sunday for those who just say that I am Kate Junior or Kate Lite… I can silence those critics when I do something she couldn’t do, and that’s win this tournament. You can make up excuses and try to claim you have what it takes and that you been waiting for this moment. You can keep on waiting because I have no intentions to lose to someone like you.
You have the amazing partner and he’s a man full of hype. I like Mac Bane’s style but he will have his work cut out for him because he is going to be in the ring with a man who is fired up to become the SCW Champion. He wants what he couldn’t achieve last year so another trip to the big dance should get him what he wants.
Mac is out to prove he truly is one of the biggest signings in this company and he could win this thing.
You however I see a lot of pressure on you… There is a lot more on you then there is with me. After all I am the rookie who has had the honour of making this far. If for some reason I do lose it really isn’t a lost. The company will know that I am a top tier athlete. I have all of the makings to be one of the best bombshells of the future and I know opportunities are going to rise up.
However with you everything you have worked so hard for could be gone in a simple flash. Your hope to become the next contender for the World Championship could fade away and on top of that you could lose your championship in the process. All of it could go… POOF… Just like that…
I know deep down that definitely scares you…
I love being able to wrestle with no strings attached. It feels liberating and it makes me feel like I can go out to that ring and do what I do best. However that’s how I love it. I love the challenges because I feel like they have toughen me up and they have made me stronger in the end. Do you really feel like you are in the prime shape to really beat such a hungry challenger?!
Have your mandatories put you in the best possible position for this… That’s why nobody likes Mandatories… They are a joke. People tend to know what’s going to happen before it even does. They seem to be that of one sided affairs.
There’s nothing fun about that… It’s whatever though. The way I see it though. On Sunday this little girl has all of the potential to make all of her dreams come to pass. People will finally be able to accept me, and I will have that solo act.
Sunday I will stand out and I truly will be all that glitters in the dark. I will shine brightly and you my dear will become nothing more than an afterthought. I carry a lot on my shoulders and I won’t be disappointed. You think you have what it takes to finally have that break through moment?! You want to march your way towards being in position for your twentieth championship?!
You got to get through me and I doubt you will make it beyond me.
I am sorry you had to deal with this MISERY BUSINESS but THAT’S WHAT YOU GET when you were forced to step in the ring with me. I have plans of CRUSHCRUSHCRUSHing your dreams and leaving you emptied handed.
Honestly I [/b]HATE TO SEE YOUR HEART BREAK[/b] but AIN’T IT FUN the type of music we will make together. Too bad your record officially gets broken and when everything settles I TOLD YOU SO This is my path to the top and nobody will get in the way of that…
I won’t make it easy on you… I am the most hungry woman in all of this tournament and losing would be OUTRAGEOUS…
So bring your best but it’s not going to be enough. I will have my hand raised and I will have a one way ticket to the next Super Card’s main event where I will fight for the SCW World Championship.
Bring it Bitch but it just won’t be enough because I WANT IT MORE…
Cheers…

Anthony however stops her daughter as he shakes her head at her.
“You don’t even have to say that statement. I am not going to judge you Prudence… We can tell just by the way you look at her. It also doesn’t help that your sister Phoebe has a big mouth and can’t keep a secret for anything…”
Ruby begins to stomp her feet.
“I swear to God I am going to kill her!!!!”
Anthony nods his head.
“I wouldn’t mind if you did to be honest… That’s your mother’s daughter… She has nothing to do with me and…”
Rebecca looks back at her.
“ANTHONY!!! I would appreciate if you didn’t speak about my daughter like that…”
He nods his head.
“Cheers… Listen the only thing that matters is that we want to be in your life. We don’t want to miss any moments. You can love whoever you wish and do whatever you want to do. We just want to be in your life and consider this the very first step in us being there for you… That is if you would have us…”
Ruby’s eyes light up as she smiles wide.
“Of course you can be in my life!!! This is what I wanted for so long!!! Thank you so much for flying this far to see me, I promise that this trip is going to be worth it. I am going to beat the brakes off of Myra Rivers. I will be in position to be a CHAMPION and even a better position to be a WORLD CHAMPION… How could I ever deny any of you… This is all I ever wanted…”
Anthony smiles hugging his daughter.
“Good because you are going to get exactly what you wanted. I will be there for all of your big moments. This is only the beginning and you will be getting so much more than that…”
“Much more, I don’t see how it could get any better than this…”
Anthony smiles as he looks behind a cliff, and yells at the top of his lungs.
“GEM STONES… PLAY THAT SONG WE TALKED ABOUT… IN HONOUR OF MY DAUGHTER’S LOVE FOR COURTNEY AND OF COURSE MY LOVE TOWARDS MY DAUGHTER!!!”
Ruby’s eyes open wide up and it is at that instance that she can see her cousin Diamond emerge with a guitar around her neck and connected to an amp. There is a microphone stand in front of her. Ruby’s sister Sapphire has a guitar around her neck and of course their friend Emerald is behind a drumstick. On the count of three they begin to sing a very famous Backstreet Boys song.
“I DON’T CARE WHO ARE, WHERE YOU’RE FROM AS LONG AS YOU LOVE ME!!!!!!!!!”
Ruby shakes her head as her eyes move to that of her father. She is on the verge of tears as she speaks out to them.
“This is all too much daddy… I really don’t know what to say…”
Her father smiles in return as he begins to speak some more.
“I know you could sit here with all of the tears but you don’t need to say anything. Just continue being yourself. Although I do believe there is a girlfriend standing over there who wants your attention so you might as well give her some sugar!”
Ruby turns her attention to Courtney as her eyes instantly light up. The two of them can’t help but giggle at one another as they reply back to daddy Steele.
“Daddy… That’s OUTRAGEOUS!!!”
Ruby chimes in.
“I am not going to do that… That’s just awkward. We can save that for what we do behind closed doors. I rather just focus on enjoying the night with my favourite people into the entire world. What’s not to love about being with my girlfriend, and my family! I don’t think it gets any better than this…”
Courtney smiles as she looks back at her girlfriend.
“Oh there is definitely one way it could… About the nickname Garnet that you tried to give me… I think it would fit me. After all it is my birthstone and it makes me fit with you…”
Ruby smiles in return.
“Whatever you say my Garnet… Let’s just enjoy this night tonight together. There’s nothing better than that of friends and family. We have huge matches ahead of us. You will finally beat that losing streak and just like my girlfriend a few years prior. I could walk out as the winner of the Blast From The Past tournament…”
Courtney smiles as she hugs her girlfriend.
“You got this babe… This is all you… You seize the moment and do the very thing that everybody wants you to do. Go win this tournament and place your name in the history books of SCW…”
“Oh I plan too but you better beat Bella… At Blaze of Glory we will both have our moment… I just have faith in all of that…”
The two lovebirds giggle at one another. Everybody looks up at the sky as they just continue to enjoy each other’s company. It is on this image that we slowly leave fade out on.
On Camera
Everything comes into focus and as it does we are treated to the sight of Ruby Steele with a bass guitar around her shoulder. She strums away as she offers a wide grin to that of the camera.
“Music is so soothing to the soul. It’s everything to me and there is no greater feeling than the sound of listening to something that you like a lot. However the best type of music that I could possibly be exposed to this coming weekend is to hear the sweet sound of Justin announcing that Ruby Steele is the winner of the 2021 Blast From The Past tournament. At the end of the day that is all this has ever been about. I am willing to do whatever it takes to get there but I need to overcome the woman in front of me. I just have to get past Myra and everything I could have ever imagined would be mine for the taking.
It seems like fate has brought the two of us together Myra… Now after listening to what you had to say to be quite honest I find you to be a bloody fucking idiot. You have no idea what I am even about or what I intend to do. Everybody is quick to assume that this is all about Kate. They all act like I am here in trying to fight my cousin’s battles and surely if that was the case I would have chased after Evie after immediately signing my name on an SCW contract. She is the one who humiliated her by beating a submission expert with a submission hold. She and my cousin have a bitter feud that doesn’t seem to end and that would have been my choice of target but it wasn’t…
The reason why I even decided to become a wrestler wasn’t to follow in her footsteps but it was to pave my own way and find my own place in the world. After getting beaten down by Mackenzie in trying to help my cousin in that big match that she had. I needed to figure out ways to defend my own wellbeing. I needed to figure out more about myself.
In the eyes of everyone I am merely Kate’s little cousin. I am in her shadow and because we have the same surname I will always be linked to her. When the band made its way to Jet City South I deliberately made it my goal to be trained by Mikah because I wanted to be different. Kate might be good but Mikah is the very best and in turn I want to be the test. This match isn’t about trying to fight for anybody other than myself because I want to stand out into the spotlight. You think I am content with simply being in a band and being an accompanying member?!
If I was happy I wouldn’t have jumped so quickly into the fray and I definitely wouldn’t have signed up to be in this tournament. The fact of the matter is I want my own name to mean something and look how far I have gotten on my work ethic and my own merit. I am in the finals and in position to be the winner of this entire thing.
Whatever vendetta you think I might have, it’s honestly full of shit. You can sit there on your high horse and try to speak a bunch of poppycock that makes little to no sense. Trying to question me on if I know what I am in for and how this might be a wakeup call. Bitch have you not been paying attention?! On paper nobody’s journey to the finale has been as tough as mine. I had to face the best Bombshell ever. I had to face Roxi Johnson and now I am standing down at the longest reigning Internet Champion of ALL TIME…
That’s a hell of a lineup that I had to deal with. By logic I shouldn’t even be here but BLOODY HELL LOOK AT ME I FUCKING AM!!! Whether Daniel was in the ring or Mark Cross they can only fight for so long but as soon as a tag is made I had to come in and actually do something. I showed everybody that I could hold my own and because of my ability I was competent enough to make it this far. I think that DDT on Roxi is a sound that could be heard all throughout this company, but you don’t want to listen because you are still about stroking your own ego.
It’s really ridiculous if you ask me. You are on about this redemption tour and you are hoping you can win the right way. You hope you can make amends for your past mistakes so that you can go about winning a title the right way… Instead of focusing on how I live your life why don’t you go work things out with Andrea Hernandez, after all weren’t you a bully to her back in the day. Wasn’t it your actions that caused her to go off the deep end, and now she’s going about burying the legitimacy of this tournament because she felt with Bill Barnhart she got the short end of the stick last year?!
If you really want redemption work on that relationship, because I feel the mark you make on others will have a bigger impact than that of winning titles or accolades. It will build up the future but you don’t think of that because you only think about yourself…
I understand it though… Go ahead and point the finger at me and try to question if my place in this tournament is legitimate. Try to undersell my achievements and what I have done since day fucking one. I mean that’s what you were trying to question if I would have been here with Daniel instead of Mark, and the answer to that question is absolutely yes. Daniel may not have the flashiness of a singles star but he has made a name being a tag team specialist. Last ever superstars tag team champion, first ever Mixed tag team champion, and won that title a second time.
He might very well be the best male star to have as a tag specialist in this tournament. You don’t see that though because you try to make points that make no sense. You wish to even use my cousin against me forcing the fact that you were better than her but let me explain something just so you get it in your skull.
When Kate fought you she had done all she could have done with the Internet title. She broke all of the records just like she had done with the Roulette Championship when she held it years ago. She was honestly looking to fight worthy challengers and once dropping it would move on to the World Championship picture.
You might have beat her and I won’t deny that but last year she was defending against women like Roxi Johnson, Keira Johnson, and Evie Jordan… All of those women happened to win the World Championship last year. What in the bloody fuck have you done to even warrant yourself to even be considered a great champion?!
It’s all been a joke… I mean no disrespect to anybody you fought but let’s be honest. The only time that you truly take things seriously or go all out is when you are facing tough competition. That was all before you even had the championship. You were fighting Amber Ryan, and you beat Alicia Lukas. All of those things you did in order to stand out. However when you get the title you become complacent and don’t have that same energy…
It’s bullshit and you know it! If being like my cousin in trying to fight the very best and offering YOU a championship match because she knew you were a threat is a bad thing. By all means I would take that as a compliment because we are fighters. We always are looking for a challenge and won’t stop until we get that fight.
I could only imagine what would happen if you managed to win this tournament. If we judge your Internet Championship reign you would probably be requesting people who don’t even deserve it. Let’s bring back Traci Patterson because hey she deserves one! Or hey Alice Knight is off and on let’s give her a shot or maybe bring Pandora back in because that certainly would sell right?!
It’s a joke and honestly it would be OUTRAGEOUS… You may have broken a record but you haven’t done ANYTHING that really stands out.
You think I am going to let you get in my way and stop me from accomplishing something I want badly?! This week has been the best week of my entire life. I now have an amazing girlfriend in my life in Courtney Pierce who is cheering me on. My family has flown all the way from England to watch me accomplish something.
All of my life I have been denied. I have been told by Britain’s Got Talent that I wasn’t good enough to sing, and guess what I am now in a band.
I was told that I wouldn’t amount to anything because I wasn’t special, and I went on to film a movie with Christina’s studio…
I was told I was too small to wrestle and I happen to be undefeated beating Hall of Famers…
Now here you are questioning that I might hold a grudge because of what you did to Kate and honestly I don’t give a damn. I know the Internet Championship might be billed as being part of this match and as nice as it sounds to have that title around my waist. I want more than that… I don’t want to settle for second best. I want to be the VERY BEST and my eyes are on competing for the World Championship at the next Super Card. That has always been the destination and the end goal.
Besides this Sunday for those who just say that I am Kate Junior or Kate Lite… I can silence those critics when I do something she couldn’t do, and that’s win this tournament. You can make up excuses and try to claim you have what it takes and that you been waiting for this moment. You can keep on waiting because I have no intentions to lose to someone like you.
You have the amazing partner and he’s a man full of hype. I like Mac Bane’s style but he will have his work cut out for him because he is going to be in the ring with a man who is fired up to become the SCW Champion. He wants what he couldn’t achieve last year so another trip to the big dance should get him what he wants.
Mac is out to prove he truly is one of the biggest signings in this company and he could win this thing.
You however I see a lot of pressure on you… There is a lot more on you then there is with me. After all I am the rookie who has had the honour of making this far. If for some reason I do lose it really isn’t a lost. The company will know that I am a top tier athlete. I have all of the makings to be one of the best bombshells of the future and I know opportunities are going to rise up.
However with you everything you have worked so hard for could be gone in a simple flash. Your hope to become the next contender for the World Championship could fade away and on top of that you could lose your championship in the process. All of it could go… POOF… Just like that…
I know deep down that definitely scares you…
I love being able to wrestle with no strings attached. It feels liberating and it makes me feel like I can go out to that ring and do what I do best. However that’s how I love it. I love the challenges because I feel like they have toughen me up and they have made me stronger in the end. Do you really feel like you are in the prime shape to really beat such a hungry challenger?!
Have your mandatories put you in the best possible position for this… That’s why nobody likes Mandatories… They are a joke. People tend to know what’s going to happen before it even does. They seem to be that of one sided affairs.
There’s nothing fun about that… It’s whatever though. The way I see it though. On Sunday this little girl has all of the potential to make all of her dreams come to pass. People will finally be able to accept me, and I will have that solo act.
Sunday I will stand out and I truly will be all that glitters in the dark. I will shine brightly and you my dear will become nothing more than an afterthought. I carry a lot on my shoulders and I won’t be disappointed. You think you have what it takes to finally have that break through moment?! You want to march your way towards being in position for your twentieth championship?!
You got to get through me and I doubt you will make it beyond me.
I am sorry you had to deal with this MISERY BUSINESS but THAT’S WHAT YOU GET when you were forced to step in the ring with me. I have plans of CRUSHCRUSHCRUSHing your dreams and leaving you emptied handed.
Honestly I [/b]HATE TO SEE YOUR HEART BREAK[/b] but AIN’T IT FUN the type of music we will make together. Too bad your record officially gets broken and when everything settles I TOLD YOU SO This is my path to the top and nobody will get in the way of that…
I won’t make it easy on you… I am the most hungry woman in all of this tournament and losing would be OUTRAGEOUS…
So bring your best but it’s not going to be enough. I will have my hand raised and I will have a one way ticket to the next Super Card’s main event where I will fight for the SCW World Championship.
Bring it Bitch but it just won’t be enough because I WANT IT MORE…
Cheers…
