Though Cassie did pick up the win in Young Justice’s Tag Team Match against Diamond Caldwell and Seleana Zdunich the young duo haven’t seen much action since then, in fact they’ve been busy with issues that started during the Viking Era Tour: Harper’s ongoing war with Victoria Lyons had only intensified because Lyons hadn’t pinned Harper during the Queen’s Gambit Match at Into the Void while Cassie was out to solve her issues with Seleana that started mid-way through the Viking Era tour! In fact, Cassie had gotten so restless that she had requested a warmup match at the Go Home Show before Summer XXXTreme and the bosses apparently decided to kill two birds with one stone.
How? By booking a non-title match between Cassie and Victoria for the Go Home Show in Grand Junction, Colorado! The match wasn’t being contested under Roulette Rules but a win here could radically alter the Roulette Title Match that was scheduled between Harper and Victoria for this year’s Summer Spectacular, can Cassie shock the world and get the win over a woman who is easily the most dominant fact of the Bombshell Division? Especially since the match was happening a few days before her twenty second birthday?

There seems to be a lot of misconceptions about how I came about signing my SCW Contract this time last year, give or take a month or two.
The main one seems to stem from the fact that I arrived right as my half sister Krystal was on her way out of the company, the truth is Krystal’s contract didn’t expire until this past February and she chose not to renew it, as for why she disappeared? She had arranged to take some time off ahead of the show because she had nagging injuries to deal with and during said time off she reevaluated whether or not she actually wanted to return because of how far her stock had fallen since the start of the new year and well, you know the rest.
The other misconception is that people think that I got my spot on the roster because Krystal was the longest reigning Bombshell Roulette Champion before Victoria came around! And yeah, I am related to Krystal through marriage (and initially thought I was her younger cousin but that is a LONG story) but I had already built up my reputation outside of SCW before then, hell, I was a double champion during my rookie year!
Just don’t talk about how my first (and thus far, only) singles title reign ended, that shit still pisses me off! The point is? I had been on SCW’s radar for a while, the main things keeping me from signing up sooner were one: at the time I was living in Reno and that was one hell of a commute to Vegas and two: I still had some lingering bad feelings from that attack at 2023’s Blaze of Glory that basically led to Krystal’s “I’m a Bitch” phase.
Sure, I was still living in Reno when I signed with SCW but that didn’t last long as Josh managed to find me a decent sized house in a non-HOA neighbourhood back in Vegas, and since then? I’ve been trying to carve my own path as a Bombshell.
”There you are!” I greeted Harper as I walked up to her and Harper grinned before clapping hands with me. ”Man, you really took it to Victoria and Kate tonight!”
”Yeah, well, I wasn’t about to let them get the one up on me.” Harper responded as she leaned against the wall and I nodded in response. ”Any idea what they’re going to do about you and Seleana? You’ve been calling her out just as long as I’ve been going after Victoria this cycle but I’ve at least heard from Victoria! And Kate to a less extent.”
”I haven’t heard anything from either the bosses or Sel, not even sure if the match will go ahead at this point.” I responded as I shook my head and Harper nodded as she got the idea. ”Worst case scenario I guess is that we end up in another multi-woman match but if that does happen I might just say screw it and move on! and hey, at least you ensured that Kate had a very bad night tonight!”
”True, but knowing her? She’ll probably try to flex it like “still unpinned or haven’t been submitted”, like beating Bea is a flex!” Harper responded with a scoff as she rolled her eyes. ”We both know that streak would’ve ended it Amelia wasn’t the third wheel in the match!”
”Ironically taking advantage of the same mistake that got her brother pinned in the opener.” I scoffed but before I could say anything else? I felt my phone vibrate in my jeans’ pocket, and at this time of night on a Sunday that hosted a Climax Control? That could only mean one thing. ”Sounds like the bosses have granted my wish for a warmup match.”
”My phone didn’t go off so I’m guessing it’s not a tag match of sorts.” Harper responded before we dug our phones out, Harper was right, she hadn’t been booked for the Go Home Show but I had, Harper went to pocket her phone again when she saw the look on my face. ”Why do I get the feeling that your match is going to complicate things?”
”Because there’s a good chance it will!” I responded as I shook my head and Harper’s frown deepened. ”I’m facing Victoria in a non-title match.”
”Wait, what?!” Harper asked before taking the phone from me to confirm for herself. ”Non-title like you said, standard rules, I haven’t been mentioned anywhere except for the match description, what are they playing at?”
“Looks like the SCW Text system has beaten me to the punch.” We looked up and saw Josh approaching us with a neutral expression on his face, as the manager of both me and Harp? It was safe to say that he had a lot of thoughts about this situation. “Cass, I’ve been talking with Mark and Christian since your segment aired, they had their hands tied after what Logan did to those local guys but they decided to throw this match together because of your connection to Harper.”
”And I’m guessing they said nothing about me and Seleana?” I asked and Josh nodded to confirm my suspicions, I shared a look with Harper before adding, ”Okay but where does that leave us? I thought Kate Steele was going to be the third wheel in Harper’s match at Summer XXXTreme but now it’s being advertised as a one on one match between Harper and Victoria.”
“I’m not sure, they weren’t exactly forthcoming.” Joshua responded as he shook his head and me and Harper nodded. “You’re both my charges of course and you both being in the Roulette Title Match at one of SCW’s biggest shows would raise my stock as a manager while raising your stocks, but Cassie needs to beat Victoria on Sunday before they even think about that, not to mention it’ll be your last match as a twenty one year old woman.”
”Yep, turning twenty two exactly five days later.” I nodded in response as I folded my arms. ”Mom’s already got me a Switch 2 for my birthday, she accidentally spilled the beans on that when I had a vid chat with her on Friday, so I guess on one hand we can count this as an early birthday present for me.”
”While only making things more complicated for me.” Harper responded as she let out a deep breath. ”So much for this issue potentially being resolved at Summer XXXTreme.”
“It could still be resolved, Cassie’s involvement in the Roulette Match is dependent on her beating Victoria this Sunday.” Josh assured Harper and I frowned as I folded my arms. “And you have something to say about that I bet.”
”I mean, yeah! The Bombshell Roulette Title is the only belt I haven’t competed for since I signed with SCW last year.” I responded as I thought back to my previous matches. ”My official Supercard debut was against Luna, Alexandra and Seleana in a Tables Elimination Match to determine Victoria’s challenger for last year’s High Stakes but that’s the closest I’ve gotten, then I was in the High Stakes rumble but I could’ve gone after any title in the division if I won that thing, then I had my match with Crystal, then the Elimination Chamber and finally the Queen for a Day Match, notice anything missing from hat list?”
“A Roulette Title Match? Of course, if you had won the tables match, the rumble or the Queen match then we’d likely be telling a different story.” Josh responded with a nod and I had to admit, he was right. “I know you mentioned that you wanted to go after Victoria if you won the rumble, but what about the Queen for a Day match?”
”If you mean “have I figured out what I would’ve done if I had grabbed the crown instead of Alexandra”? I was torn between a match with Victoria or Mercedes to be honest.” I responded with a shrug and my companions nodded. ”I know it’s the ultimate “King/Queen for a Day” cliché but that was the first thing that came to mind when we were in Paris that weekend, of course we all know how that turned out but either way? We’ve got training to do.”
“Indeed, we’re in Grand Junction for the Go Home show next week so I expect you two to be ready.” Josh nodded in response before he started to walk off. “Until then? Let’s get going.” Josh added before we left the arena.
Boy oh boy, did THIS escalate quickly!
Hero Academy, Las Vegas, Nevada
Wednesday the 2nd of July 2025, 14:00pm
Well, it’s official folks, we’re one week away from my turning twenty two! Well, a week and two days but hey, who’s counting, am I right?
But as much as I want to just focus on the fact that I’ll be celebrating my birthday on the cruise? I think you can guess what’s also on my mind right now, yep, you got it, it’s the match with Victoria at the Go Home Show!
I’ve been training with Josh and Harper for most of the week since the match was announced but today? I went back to my old stomping grounds, the school where I homed my craft as a wrestler! Well, after that PTA Gym bullshit but well, we haven’t seen Matthew Kennedy since the tail end of 2023 so yeah.
Anyway, I knew exactly who I wanted to train with, because I’m a petite woman (5ft 3 and 118ibs to be precise) going up against a woman five inches taller and 52ibs heavier than me and I need someone close that that height range.
”Hey Thea.” I greeted the red headed trainee and she looked up from the weight machine, for those don’t remember? Thea was one of two Hero Academy trainees me and Harper trained with in preparation for the tag match between us and Seleana and Diamond, Thea was selected as our sparring partner because she’s a former Basketball Player turned wrestling trainee who had taken to wrestling like a duck to water, meaning that she was perfect for my purposes. ”How goes training?”
“Going good, and I figured you’d come looking for me at some point this week.” Thea responded before setting the weights down and sitting up on the bench. “Because between me, Seleana and now Victoria? You can’t seem to escape the tall babes lately.”
”Funny, I thought we were just out of pride month.” I snarked as I shook my head and Thea laughed. ”Besides, I’m one of the shorter bombshells on the SCW roster right now, most of the women tower over me.”
“Yeah, good point!” Thea admitted before standing up and yeah, I was like a little girl next to Thea. “You want to to spar? Let’s go, just don’t assume that I’m a big lumbering giant because I can actually reach the top shelf, there’s a lot more to basketball than just being tall and knowing how to handle a ball!”
I bit my tongue on making any sex jokes regarding that last quote, Thea hadn’t really revealed her sexuality or if she was even seeing anyone for that matter so I wanted to play it safe. ”Yeah, I know, we sparred before, remember?”
“Maybe, but that’s pretty much what everyone else expects when they realize I’m one of the tallest women in the room.” Thea scoffed as she shook her head before I joined her in one of the training rings, Thea stepped in using the classic “big wrestler with long legs” approach and I rolled in. “Though I will admit that stepping into the ring like that will never get old.”
”Until you take too long and the rope bounces up against your snatch.” I commented dryly and Thea winced. ”Happened once during Hero Academy’s early days, the poor girl quit on the spot.”
“Note to self, don’t spend more than a few minutes getting into the ring like that.” Thea grimaced because shaking her head. “Ready when you are Cass.”
The match that followed was exactly as I expected, Thea was tall sure but she was the kind of athletic tall girl that could keep up with shorter girls like me, sure, she was green but it was clear that the Hero Academy trainers thought highly of her.
And yeah, she’s smoking hot too, there was a brief moment where Thea lingered a bit too long where our faces were inches part from a pin attempt but that was brief and we got back to training before long.
And honestly, I needed a sparring partner like Thea for matches like this!
Cassie’s Promo Room, Las Vegas, Nevada
Wednesday the 2nd of July 2025, 18:00pm
*promo time*
As I stood inside the promo room ready for my promo against the champ I had a few things on my mind to say the least.
”You know, when I said that I wanted a warm up match for Summer XXXTreme and my match against Seleana, I wasn’t sure what to expect.” I admitted as the green screen behind me showed a big question mark. ”Apparently the bosses decided to kill two birds with one stone! Not only did they grant my request but they’re using this warmup match to hype up Harp’s match at Summer XXXTreme, how?
By putting me against Victoria Lyons.” I commented ass I shook my head. ”I swear between this and Alexandra I simply can’t escape my fellow PWS: Apex alumni! But anyway, Victoria is someone I’ve wanted to face anyway, since the Viking Era Tour in fact, but since Harper was busy with her in Paris? I let them be.”
But………..
”But do I need to remind you of what happened the last time I was in a ring with Victoria? Go on, guess.” I shook my head as the green screen showed Harper slamming the chair into my back. ”Victoria used me as a human shield in her little war against Harper, I was mad at first because of that because, well, chair shots to the back hurt like a bitch, shocking, I know.
But I realized that Harper wasn’t at fault for that by the time Into the Void rolled around, though to be fair the fact that I was also dealing with the Seleana situation didn’t help matters! no, instead I focussed my anger on the bitch that orchestrated that whole situation in the first place and trust me Victoria, I’ve been waiting for a chance at revenge.”
But how?
”One idea I had was to book me against you if I won Queen for a Day at Into the Void, pretty sure I don’t need to remind you of who won it instead and regardless of whether Harper took the title from you or not? That was in my plans.” I added as the green screen showed me with a photoshopped crown on my head. ”But nope! We got to enjoy another feew weeks of you holding the title.
Only your reign has hit shaky ground Victoria! Sure, Frankie had a little help from Harper but that was still a loss, then you lost to the Harris brats and the week after that? You got dunked by something I could smell from the backstage area.” I commented with a grin as I flipped some hair over my shoulder. ”Do you know who held the record for longest reign before you Victoria? My older half-sister Krystal, and just like you? She lost an important match during the final days of her reign, in other words? The Queen’s reign is about to end!”
Yep.
”It would be poetic if a Wolfe ended the reign of a Lyon, kind of a bookends kind of deal, but alas, this match is non-title.” I added as I folded my arms. ”But you seem to choke the most when the gold isn’t at stake Victoria, your first oss was to Luna in a non-title match and set a precedent for others to follow: you lose before your next title match and then retain the title, right?”
It's that simple.
”It would apply to this cycle, except this is the first time you’ve lost more than one match in a row,” I stated as I looked at the camera with a cocky grin. ”And as someone who is a former champ myself? Babe, I haven’t seen this many cracks appear since there was a plumbers convention on the strip! It took over a year but you are finally slipping Vicky, allow me me to help drive the last nail in that coffin.”
And with that I decided to wrap things up.
”The coffin for your title reign that is! And after I win? Who knows? Maybe Kate will get the shaft and it’ll be Young Justice vs. Vicky for the gold? I mean honestly, was the world really clamouring for a Kate Steele return?” I asked before shaking my head. ”Don’t answer that, we all know the answer! But in the meantime Victoria we’ll make do with the following battle: A Lyon vs. A Wolfe, and the Wolfe’s about to go all “Long Live The King” on the Lyon Queen’s Ass! To all my fans? In a world of fake queens and champions on the decline? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess, especially since that princess is about to show a delusional queen why she’s Hungry Like the Wolfe!”
I turned off the camera as the scene fades.
