[Jessie Salco]

 (Celeste’s cameo was authorized by Erik)

Since the Open Invitational Bombshell Musical Chairs Match for the Bombshell Championship ended Jessie hasn’t been seen much on SCW TV aside from her appearance in the seg where she and the other Bombshells agreed to rise up against Mark Ward and Mikah for the unfair working conditions and Mikah’s health problems being a health hazard.

And it just so happened that six of those Bombshells, Jessie included, where in action this week on Climax Control, at My Bloody Valentine III Jessie will compete alongside Sam Marlowe, Traci Paterson, Kate Steele, Veronica Taylor and Candy Overton to determine who would be the new Bombshell Roulette Champion after Mikah finally vacated the title but until then the six Bombshells would compete in a Six Person Tag Team Match on Climax Control with Veronica. Kate and Candy making up one team whilst Traci, Sam and Jessie made up the other, whoever got the pin fall in this match was bound to have a lot of momentum heading into My Bloody Valentine II and considering her track record in 2016 so far Jessie could use all the momentum in the world right now but can she win?

There’s a massive fucking elephant in the room and I know that you are waiting for me to address it.

You know what I’m talking about, the petition me and the other Bombshells signed at Climax Control and how I managed to resist the urge to strangle Celeste and Alexis whilst I was in the same room as them and don’t get me wrong, it was tempting to say the least, but the problems with Mikah go beyond my rivalry with Celeste and my hatred of The Nobodies in general.

As for how they convinced me to show up to the meeting, well it’s definitely a surprise.

*flashback*

For me this whole thing started last Monday night at my home in Las Vegas, we were setting up for my first ever game of Dungeons and Dragons as I had expressed an interest in the game when Jake, who is a longtime player of the game, found a copy of the 3rd edition handbook among his stuff and Shane, who had just started playing himself, brought over his fifth edition stuff.

Long story short, we spent a good chunk of last week playing D&D but this story starts just before our first game.

“So, I just stumbled upon this, what’s it called again? Module?” Shane asked as he looked at the book he was holding and Jake, who was the DM since he was the most experienced out of the three of us, nodded. “And it has a really metal sounding name, seriously this name could be the title of a classic Morbid Angel song!”

“Oh yeah? What’s it called?” I asked as I glanced up from my character sheet, I was playing a female wizard whilst Shane was playing a male barbarian and since they are both new characters they are at level one.

“Tomb of Horrors.” Shane responded and Jake put his screen down and looked Shane right in the eye.

“No, just no.” Jake responded simply and Shane blinked. “I am NOT running that module do you even know what the Tomb of Horrors is?”

“No, I did just start playing this game.” Shane responded as he looked down at the book. “What’s so bad about it anyway? It was created by the creator of D&D.”

“And you’ve probably noticed that it’s the dustiest out of my old D&D stuff.” Jake pointed out and Shane nodded. “Tomb of Horrors is basically the Dark Souls franchise in the form of a D&D adventure, it has a lot of traps and the chances of, say, my 20th level Paladin making it through the dungeon in one piece is a million to one, let alone your level one characters.”

“Well if you hate it so much, why do you have a copy?” I chimed in and Jake shook his head.

“I don’t hate the Tomb of Horrors, it’s a well written module with some beautiful artwork but I played that module once back when I was in my late teens/early twenties, I found it in a used book store for really cheap and I figured why not and I brought it thinking that my 20th level monk could handle it.” Jake explained as he shifted his weight. “At one point my monk’s gender and alignment got changed and he, or she for that matter, didn’t live much longer, me and Danny pretty much agreed to never play it again after that point.”

“And I think we can agree that we won’t play it.” Shane commented and I nodded in agreement before he put it away, before Jake could get started on the game though there was a knock at the door. “Our Pizzas are here already?”

“Can’t be, I ordered them for six and we still have twenty minutes.” Jake responded as he checked the time on his watch. “Maybe it’s the mailman with a big package for us?”

“That’s not a penis joke, right?” I asked and the boys laughed before I shook my head. “I’ll go get it, don’t start without me.” I added and the boys nodded before I stood up and made my way to the front door, however when I opened the door my eyes narrowed. “CELESTE?!”

“Surprised to see me?” The Nobody/pain in my ass asked with a grin on her face as I glared at her. “Look, we hate each other and I don’t think anything can change that so I’ll make this quick.” Celeste added before handing me a clipboard. “Have a read.”

“And why should I read something from you?” I asked without looking at the clipboard and Celeste sighed in annoyance.

“If it helps it’s also from Natalie McKinley and Crystal Millar.” Celeste added and that caught my attention before I read what was on the clipboard, I read through it a few times and looked back up at her.

“Let me get this straight, you’re asking me to join in your little revolution against the company that gave me my first big break in the business four years ago and the current alcoholic champion and that’s not even getting into how much we hate each other?” I asked with a suspicious look on my face. “Why didn’t you ask Natalie and Crystal to come here anyway?”

“I would’ve but they were busy convincing the other Bombshells and I drew the short straw.” Celeste explained and my frown deepened. “Look, let’s set aside the rivalry for now and focus on the bigger picture, we haven’t exactly had fair treatment in SCW and Mikah is a lawsuit waiting to happen, I know you want to win the World Bombshell Title and become a Grand Slam Champ like Amy but what if you get a one on one match for the title and Mikah’s drunkenness results in you getting injured or worse?”

“I didn’t know you cared.” I responded with a scoff and Celeste shook her head.

“Quite frankly I don’t but like I said, I’m looking at the bigger picture.” Celeste responded as she took back the clipboard and started to walk away. “We’ll be holding a meeting at Climax Control, you don’t have to attend but remember what I said.” Celeste added as she started to leave my property.

“Who’s locker room?” I called out to her and Celeste stopped in her track.

“Bombshell Locker Room, we’ve scheduled it to happen just after the Internet Title Match.” Celeste responded as she glanced over her shoulder. “So I take it you’ll be there?”

“Let me put it this way, hell must’ve frozen over because we agree on something.” I responded and Celeste smirked before walking off.

*end flashback*

Who’d have thought that it would take the mutual hatred of the Bombshell Champion for me and Celeste to work together?

But I digress, what’s done is done and I’ve signed that petition and, well, the prospect of having my career cut short by Mikah’s alcoholism did strike a chord with me so here I am, ready to stand up for the Bombshells.

What a coincidence that six of the Bombshells who signed that petition, me included, will be at war for the next three weeks, huh?

Okay, granted, the bosses likely planned the six Bombshell matches when they got the belt off of Mikah at long last and I wouldn’t be surprised if they have something similar planned for the Male Division’s Roulette Championship since that’s also been vacated though in that case it’s due to Drake’s injury a couple of weeks back but still, I can’t help but wonder if they made the match just to try to split us up.

As for my opponents, I’ll address Traci and Sam during the lead-up to My Bloody Valentine but for now I’ll focus on Veronica, Kate and Candy, out of those three Veronica is the only one I’ve faced and both times were as part of the Metal and Punk Connection Tag Team with Amy but I know I can beat her in a fair fight, Kate and Candy I’m not so sure about but that’s never stopped me.

And it won’t stop me in three weeks either.

At the moment we are eating at a local Five Guys restaurant for a change as Shane doesn’t really feel like cooking tonight and Jake had recommended it so here we are waiting for our food.

“I still can’t believe you agreed to that petition.” Shane commented with a frown as we waited for our food to arrive, well Jake was collecting it but still. “I mean I’d understand if Natalie or even Crystal had approached you but Celeste?”

“Trust me, I’m still just as surprised as you are.” I responded as I shook my head. “But at the end of the day it’s not about rivals, it’s about the future of the Bombshell Division as long as that idiot’s holding the belt.”

“Yeah, I hear you, my uncle wouldn’t tolerate a line cook showing up drunk to work week in and week out so why should SCW?” Shane asked and I went to add something. “I know that being a chef and being a wrestler are two very different professions but still!”

“And let’s not forget that both professions are so stressful that they drive people to drink.” I pointed out and Shane nodded with a frown. “It’s like I said, I don’t want my career ended whilst I’m still in my twenties because some idiot values a good drink over another wrestler’s safety and considering that it’s been confirmed that Mark has been fucking what little brains she has out I don’t think anything would’ve been done otherwise.”

“That or someone did get seriously hurt due to Mikah’s alcoholism.” Jake chimed in as he set the tray of food down and sat down. “Okay, Shane you ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger with BBQ Sauce and Cajun Fries, that’s in that bag there.”

“Thanks.” Shane responded before opening the bag and taking the food out. “This food looks surprisingly good for a fast food chain.”

“Why do you think I recommended it?” Jake asked before turning to me. “Jess, you ordered the Bacon Burger with Five Guys Style Fries, that’s in the bag closest to you.”

“I’ll take that.” I responded with a grin before getting the food out. “They don’t exactly skimp on the portion size.”

“Yeah, that’s another thing I like about this place.” Jake responded before he got his food out, Bacon Burger with BBQ Sauce, grilled mushrooms and Cajun Fries. “Well, what’s left to do other than dig in?” Jake asked and with that we did just that, the food was as good as it looked but it was very filling so neither of us were going up for a second serving and we were glad that Jake had paid for it. “I’m ready to head back when you guys are.”

“You might want to give me a week or two, I don’t think I’ll be moving much after that meal.” I joked getting a laugh out of the boys. “Seriously though, even if we find a chain back in Vegas we are definitely saving return trips for special occasions.”

“Agreed.” Shane nodded in agreement as we stood up. “Jess, I know you have a promo to do so how do you want to do it?”

“It’s a twenty-minute drive back to the hotel, plenty of time for me to get my promo done so I’ll do it in the car.” I responded after thinking for a moment and with that we left the restaurant and headed to the car, the boys got in the front whilst me and the cameraman got in the back and Jake turned to me.

“You okay with having the volume turned down?” Jake asked knowing that we had Kreator’s Hoards of Chaos album in the CD player and whilst I would normally call that blasphemy I made due since it would make the promo hard to understand, speaking of which……

“Mark Ward had to know that it was only a matter of time before the Bombshells had had enough of his bullshit and Mikah’s unprofessionalism and believe it or not, I’m being generous here! That said I see what he’s trying to do by booking this match between the teams of me, Sam and Traci and Kate, Veronica and Candy, he’s trying to drive us apart whilst using the Bombshell Roulette Title Match at My Bloody Valentine II as an excuse but it won’t work, as the old saying goes, united we stand, divided we fall and as far as I’m concerned we’ll remain united on the issue for as long as it takes!”

But…….

“On other hand it’s been way too long since I’ve held a singles title and a lot of people want to see me go after Mikah so that I can become a grand slam champ like Amy and don’t get me wrong, I want that too but against a dangerous drunkard like Mikah, I’m not saying that wrestling’s basically ballet because accidents happen and whatnot but a champion who wrestles drunk? I wasn’t aware that this was the late 90s!”

But I digress, first up is Kate!

“Kate, let’s get the basics out of the way, I hate your taste in music and I hate your band without having listening to them and don’t even bother sending me copies of your album, EP, demo, whatever because I will destroy them and throw them in the trash where they and you belong! You may be the siren Kate but these next three weeks will be a Greek tragedy for you!”

Next up is Veronica.

“Why didn’t I address Veronica sooner? It’s my promo, that’s why and besides, Veronica is NOTHING without the Mean Girls, I mean seriously, when was the last time Veronica was anywhere near a title? We all know the answer to that so don’t bother answering, since the Mean Girls were dissolved you’ve been on a downward spiral Ronnie and it’s only downhill from here no matter how many wins you cheat your way into!”

Last but not least is Candy.

“Now onto Candy Overton, the Bombshell who ruined Melody Grace’s return to SCW with her attack and I’d be pissed if I gave a shit about Melody, I’ll say that much! Besides that, Candy you may be a Bombshell on the rise but the same can be said about me and I have enough drive a determination to take it all the way to the top of the food chain in the Bombshell division! This match and the Roulette Title Match is just a bump in the road to my title opportunity.”

I could see the hotel approaching fast so I decided to wrap things up.

“If this promo feels a little short then don’t worry, I’m saving the juicy stuff for the title match but until then I will use this Six Person Tag Team Match to get a leg up on the opposition as the clock ticks nearer and nearer to My Bloody Valentine! This is the Heavy Metal Bitch Jessie Salco signing off, I’ll see all six of you in the ring!”

Jake parked the car as the scene fades.
