Logan was out of the High Stakes Tournament and he had one man to blame: Justin Smith, whom he had berated the week before his match against LJ Kasey, interfered in the match, a trend that was becoming common place in the High Stakes Tournament! As a result? Logan had been granted the power to name any stipulation he wanted and he had gone with a No DQ, Falls Count Anywhere Match.
But first? He had to take on the recently returned Ryan Keys in singles action at the Halloween Special! Ryan had returned at Violent Conduct and has since been undefeated, picking up wins over Anthrax and Brandon Hendrix in his first two matches and having answered Miles Kasey’s open challenge earlier in the evening, was set to challenge for the Internet Championship at High Stakes, only problem? Logan had the same idea and was shut down by the GM Evelynn Hall who flatly told Logan that he couldn’t have it both ways before Logan announced his idea for the Justin match, can Logan get the win?

This is a joke!
I have been denied my throne for too long and now that a defending champion has issued an open challenge ahead of a PPV for the second PPV in a row I am being denied because I already have a match lined up for High Stakes against Justin Smith?!
What happened to the concept of a challenge being open?! Honestly?! And now that joke Ryan Keys has stepped in?! This must be rectified.
As soon as I am let free by the Shields Sisters.
”LET ME FREE BROOKE!” I hollered from within the janitor’s closet where the Shields had shoved me in and propped a chair against the door. ”WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS?!”
”The last time things didn’t go your way in SCW you punched so many holes in the walls of our hotel room the guests in the next room over thought there was a domestic violence incident going on!” Brooke called back as the beautiful redhead rolled her eyes. ”Too say nothing of the fact that I had to pay the hotel for damages because Evelynn told us, and I quote: “SCW doesn’t cover tantrum expenses”.”
”So Brooke.” Brooke’s twin sister and the “moral centre of the group” as she insisted on being called Marissa stated as she walked up carrying two coke cans. ”Has he figured out the trick to opening the door yet?”
”If he had? He’d be out of the closet by now.” Brooke joked before Marissa tossed her a can and she grabbed it. ”By the way, did you take his phone from him?”
”I thought you did?” Marissa asked before my phone went off and I checked it. ”Wanna bet that’s the new card text for the Halloween show?”
”What’s the point in betting? We both have our trust funds.” Brooke shrugged before I started pounding on the door again. ”Pound the wood all you want, you’re not coming out until you calm down Logan!”
”WE MUST LEAVE IMMEDIATELY!” I yelled out from inside the closet and Brooke shook her head. ”I HAVE BEEN COOKED AGAINST RYAN KEYS FOR THE HALLOWEEN SHOW!”
”……….wait, seriously?” Brooke asked with a surprised look on her face. ”I guess Evelynn’s picked up on Christian’s sense of humour.”
”Based on our first meeting? I would’ve thought it would take longer.” Marissa shrugged before turning towards the closet as the (natural) brunette woman smirked. ”Gee, it sure was convenient that we found the only janitor’s closet in the world that opens from the inside, right Brooke?”
”I know, right?! Who designs confined spaces like that?!” Brooke asked and seconds later I opened the door. ”See, was that so hard Logan?”
”You are lucky that I’m in a good mood! Finish your dinks quickly so we can leave.” I instructed the two twenty year olds before storming off.
”When is he ever in a good mood?” Brooke scoffed as she finished her drink in one gulp. ”Any idea what your costume will be Mari?”
”I’ll think of something over the week, just as long as it’s not one of those “sexy” costumes that’ll have me freezing my ass off.” Marissa responded as she shook her head. ”You?”
”Haven’t decided and before you suggest it? Me and Logan went as Joker and Harley Quinn last year.” Brooke responded as Marissa finished her drink. ”And no, he wasn’t dressed as Harley!”
”That’s a mental image I didn’t need.” Marissa shuddered before the twins walked off.

This is foolishness.
We are set to compete at the Halloween show but for me? This is just another match for me, the fact that it is Halloween themed in inconsequential.
Yet the girls insist on taking me costume shopping, this is infuriating.
”Must you insist on this?” I asked Brooke as we waited for Marissa to put on her costume while trying it on, I had kept mine simple, the girls? Less so. ”This is the third costume she’s tried on!”
”Logan, I grew up with her, this is nothing.” Brooke responded as she shook her head. ”Back when Marissa was fifteen she asked a cute guy out on a date, took her five hours to pick an outfit.”
”Would’ve taken six if it didn’t mean being late for that date.” Marissa called out and Brooke shook her head. ”And half my outfits got rejected by grandma for showing too much skin! Anyway, Brooke?”
”No, I don’t have any dating horror stories because you were the sister who got all the attention from the guys!” Brooke responded as she rolled her eyes and I just shook my head. ”Ironic considering I’m the one who does porn on OnlyFans but still!”
”Actually I wanted your opinion, this witch’s outfit is shoulder less.” Marissa called back and I started to wonder around. ”Should I wear it with a bra or without?”
”Depends, how much do you want to risk an accidental nip slip on Climax Control?” Brooke called back and Marissa shook her head.
”Neckline’s not that deep, it stops just over my collarbone with holes where my shoulders should be.” Marissa called back and Brooke nodded. ”Basically like a sleeveless top except not.”
”Go with the bra then, we need to head back anyway.” Brooke called back before turning to me. ”Just need to pay and we’re good to go!”
”Good!” I called back before making my way to the counter.

*promo time*
As I got ready to cut my promo against Ryan with Brooke I had some things on my mind.
”The sky turns crimson as I invoke my dark lord to unleash horrors unimagined open thee Ryan Keys! You think you know fear? You think this is another match for your party boy lifestyle?” I scoffed as I shook my head. ”You are but a guest in my world Keys, a foolish pawn who thinks himself worthy of an Internet Title Shot just because he answered the challenge!
Believe me Ryan, it won’t matter what we get from the Halloween themed Roulette Wheel because when I am done with you? You will have forgotten how to scream, for I have taken that privilege from you!” I stated as I made a fist. ”Just as you have taken away my right to answer Miles’s open challenge! Every step you take, every bone I break every breath you draw? It belongs to me on Sunday!”
Brooke steps forward with her arms crossed.
”Were people really that excited for your return Ryan? When you last wrestled for SCW me and my sister Marissa were eleven years old and no, I don’t give a fuck if I just made anyone feel ancient.” Brooke stated as she looked dead in the camera lens. ”But of course, some nobody from the past returning has to be treated like a big deal! I mean, who have you beaten since returning? Bill Barnhart? Brandon Hendrix? Don’t make me laugh!”
I stepped forward again.
”This Sunday Ryan you will not face a man, I am the shadow that talks its pray, the figure behind the mask, the whisper in the darkness, the lord of all that is golden, the part of your very being that you are afraid to confront!” I added as I cracked my neck from side to side. ”And when the lights go out, when the blood settles, it’ll be I who will be left standing!
For you see Ryan, I do not just win hardcore matches! I leave broken bodies in my wake, I haunt my victims, I devour any self-worth they have and I am the fear that you have yet to respect!” I added as I leaned against the wall. ”But fret not my friend, for this Sunday, the last Sunday before Halloween, there will be reason to fear! Fear for your soul, fear for Justin’s safety at High Stakes, fear will take hold!”
Brooke stepped forward again.
”Thy say money can’t buy your happiness, yet I, the rich spoiled brat of SCW gets to watch her man dominate a party boy, tell me, is that not happiness? You really thought you could walk into Logan’s kingdom? Darling? PUH-LEASE! This isn’t a match, not as you know it, it’s a massacre.” Brooke stated as she looked at her nails. ”You see Ryan, I may have signed my SCW contract when I was nineteen but I knew what I wanted, I call myself the chaos slut on twitter because that is exactly who I am, I lust for chaos, Logan provides it and this Sunday? You’ll realize that I’m more than just a pretty face too late!”
It's that simple.
”All Hallows Eve, a date rooted in ancient pagan traditions usurped by corporate entities for a quick buck, if this is to be our battleground then so be it Ryan but the party will soon be over for you.” I stated as I made a fist. ”One last step, for both of us before High Stakes, yet I will coime out on top!”
And with that I decided to wrap things up.
”Will there be enough of you left to challenge Miles? I don’t care, all I care about is winning and reclaiming my stolen throne!” I added as I glared at the camera. ”I COMMAND THEE KNEEL RYAN KEYS! YOU WILL NOT DEBY ME MY THONE! I AM THE LORD OF ALL THAT GOLDEN! AND AS YOU EMBRACE OBVLIVIION KEYS? I will move one step close to my ultimate goal!”
I turned off the camera as the scene fades.
