Los Angeles, California
Hollywood Hills
The Home of Seleana and Christina Zdunich
9:04 AM PDT
Having just returned from a workout and a run, Seleana Zdunich glances at the couch and considers sitting down knowing full well that she should do no such thing given the fact that she still needed to pack to drive down to Tijuana for a match that her wife, fellow wrestler Christina “Crystal Hilton” Zdunich would be having. The fact that it would be a relatively quick trip and then they would need to head to Arizona meant that they would probably be on the road and make a date of the overall trip to Tucson for Climax Control. There were many things to do in Tucson as Christina had enumerated earlier that morning in an effort to cheer herself up that was visibly not working no matter how hard the actress inside the Hall of Famer tried to make it so.
Given her druthers, Seleana knew that Christina would pick an old film set that was out there that had previously been used in the filming of westerns and Christina almost always picked that kind of thing when allowed to be the one making the decision. This trip, they would likely need that given Christina’s reaction lately to things being said on Twitter.
As usual.
Seleana Zdunich: Vad ska jag göra?
Before she can even think about answering her own question, Christina walks into the room, head down, her entire countenance almost seemingly depressed.
Christina Zdunich: Hey Babe…
Seleana looks up and frowns slightly, confusion reigns on her face.
Seleana Zdunich: Estrellita?
Christina forces a smile and Seleana cocks her head to the left
Seleana Zdunich: What’s wrong?
Christina shrugs demonstrably.
Christina Zdunich: It’s nothing…
Seleana’s entire body slumps back at this statement. Whenever Christina said something like this, it almost always meant not only the exact opposite, but that it would be spectacularly so.
Seleana Zdunich: What is?
Christina walks over to a chair and sits down, slumping down onto it more than anything else.
Christina Zdunich: I am!
Seleana’s mouth falls open at the sound of her wife, the woman who typically pranced around under the moniker of “Crystal” calling herself “nothing.” It was the timing more than anything else that had caught the former World Bombshell Champion off-guard.
Seleana Zdunich: Vad?
Christina nods emphatically.
Christina Zdunich: You know it’s true! Look at what happened! I’m supposed to be next and they’re already talking about somebody else challenging Alicia! I mean, when it was you, all everybody talked about was whether Alicia could get by you or whether you could beat her again. Brittany gets a title shot and people talked about it even though it won’t happen until the pay-per-view but I get one and everybody’s talking about how awesome it would be if Alicia fights Roxi Johnson! They call it a dream match that they’d love to see…
Seleana shrugs.
Seleana Zdunich: It would be, if it were to happen down the road…
Christina looks up, horror in her eyes.
Christina Zdunich: See!!! Even you think I’m nothing!
Seleana can’t believe her ears.
Seleana Zdunich: VAD???!??!?
Christina points feebly.
Christina Zdunich: Even you think that’s a dream match and not me!
Seleana nods slowly.
Seleana Zdunich: Ja, Roxi versus Alicia is a dream match whether it is for title or not because it was a match nobody expected to have a chance to see until recently. Roxi was happy at home with her wife and son and Alicia was dominating a different company. Now Alicia has come here, continued her ways and Roxi is back.
Christina’s point becomes more accusatory.
Christina Zdunich: But that wasn’t the only thing! You even said I wasn’t part of your dream match!
Seleana crosses her arms.
Seleana Zdunich: My dream match has no chance of happening anymore!
Christina sits back in her chair, crossing her arms as well.
Christina Zdunich: Why not? Everybody loves you! Even Alicia Lukas and Cat Riley speak highly of you when they won’t give me the time of day!
Seleana barely blinks.
Seleana Zdunich: Because, we are not all in any one company anymore and we are not going to be. Eavan’s plate is full so she will not be coming to SCW and she has already been and gone from Hybrid. She will not be going back because of her commitments elsewhere. Zenna and I are not likely going to where Eavan is so that is just not happening, that is why I call it a dream. Because it is, as you would say, a pipe dream.
Christina waves the idea off dismissively.
Christina Zdunich: So why wasn’t I part of that “dream match?” Huh? Why wasn’t I even mentioned? Don’t you want to team with me anymore?
Seleana’s entire body slumps forward slightly, her arms dropping down to her sides as she sits on the couch behind her.
Seleana Zdunich: Of course I still wish to team with you. I have always wanted the Hollywood Angels to be a reality and it has on two occasions. It just cannot be a regular reality here in SCW and you know it. As for the other match, you and Eavan usually do not get along for long periods of time. One of you always ends up annoying the other to the point of a fight. Would that work as a team?
Christina shrugs sullenly.
Christina Zdunich: What does it matter? You don’t want us to team anyway!
Staring straight at her wife, Seleana’s gaze goes steely.
Seleana Zdunich: För fan i helvete! Vad sa jag bara?
Christina barely looks up.
Christina Zdunich: English, Babe...
Almost immediately, Christina looks as if she regrets allowing that thought to escape her mouth. Seleana pauses before retorting.
Seleana Zdunich: What did I just say?
Looking almost like a scolded child, Christina nods sadly.
Christina Zdunich: That you’ve always wanted the Hollywood Angels to be a reality.
Seleana nods pointedly.
Seleana Zdunich: Ja, och det är sanningen. It has always been the truth! I’ve wanted to be your partner since my career began. You know this. You know I have wanted it more than anything since we became together! Of course I would welcome getting to team with you with family like Zenna, Linnéa and Maja. I would love it if we got Alexi to come out of retirement for a night to team with us as none of us have ever gotten to team with Alexi. I would love it if American Murder Log played us to the ring and Zenna and Linnéa joined the match while Alissa stood at ringside as manager. I would hope for roles for Katra and Kelly but neither of them has ever had one no matter what company the rest of us worked for. I’d love it if Kelly’s sister made a comeback and joined us as well. These are ALL dream scenarios, Estrellita, and you are part of all of them! I would finally get to stand as an official Angel just like you and the others even if it was just for one night! I would love for Eavan to be part of it as well, but I do not see Alexi or Jenni deciding to make comebacks. Alexi is happy being a mother to her five children and being Robbie Priest’s wife. Jenni is happy being out of the spotlight and making up for lost time with her Mum after Emilie got out of prison. The Fallen Angels are doing well in Hybrid and I do not see where you and Eavan are ready to be a part of the same faction yet but none of that means I cannot dream of it happening!
She gets up, moves over and gets down on one knee in front of her wife.
Seleana Zdunich: You are a top contender to the World Bombshell Champion and whether everyone else wants it to be so or not, it is so. You have the shot at Alicia Lukas just like I did and just like Brittany does for winning the Blast From The Past with the leafy cabbage man. You can make them all sit up and take notice just by being you and showing Alicia Lukas why you are Hall of Fame.
Seleana takes her wife’s hand and kisses it.
Seleana Zdunich: Jag älskar dig, Stjärna! I love us being a team in life and I would love it professionally as well. We have always been a team and I would not be where I am without you.
Christina nods and the two women embrace.
Christina Zdunich: I love you too, Babe.

Tucson, Arizona
Hilton Tucson East Hotel
9:04 PM MST
The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich sitting by the pool at the Hilton Tucson East wearing jean shorts and a light red top. She smiles sweetly and nods to the camera.
Seleana Zdunich: Hej…
She pauses and nods solemnly.
Seleana Zdunich: So, last time I was in the ring I love for the first time since I broke Christian Underwood’s face. Alicia Lukas evened the decisions between us and pinned me for the World Bombshells Championship and there was no denying she got me. There is no excuse, there is no explanation other than on that night, she was better than me.
She clasps her hands together and smiles genuinely.
Seleana Zdunich: Grattis, Alicia.
Nodding slowly, her gaze moves to the ground, her hands lowering back to their original non-upright position.
Seleana Zdunich: But that does not mean I am done. It just means now I have to start at the bottom and climb back up again. I did it once and I will do it again and I start with Cat Riley here in Tucson.
Her hands come together as if she is praying again, this time accompanied by a smile as her gaze moves back up to the camera.
Seleana Zdunich: I am happy to see Cat Riley back in the ring and healthy again. She is one of the best wrestlers out there and deserves better than she had gotten before she was forced out for a time.
Pausing, Seleana nods with a playful smirk crossing her face.
Seleana Zdunich: I also enjoy how much she annoys Christian, like a little sister. She reminds me of how Zenna, Katra and I would be with each other when we were little, especially Zenna and Katra. We grew out of it but I almost hope Cat and Christian do not because it is too…
Pausing again, she searches for the proper word to describe the interactions. Finally settling on the appropriate term, she shrugs playfully.
Seleana Zdunich: Söt.
Unable to stop herself, Seleana giggles.
Seleana Zdunich: It just is too wonderful for words and a brilliant change of pace from the rest of Twitter in particular. I cannot wait for this opportunity to step into the ring with you, Cat. I know there will be no funny business with you. We will walk out to that ring and we will put on display what wrestling should look like. We will be two Cats trying to show dominance and prove which one is the best! The winner will take a step up the ladder towards Alicia and the World Bombshell Championship.
She nods and stands up.
Seleana Zdunich: We both need this, Chickie! We both need to go out and show out as it were. Remind everyone the division is more than Alicia and the flavor of the week chosen to step in with her. Just like Sam Marlowe, Christina and Mercedes Vargas need to step up and remind everyone they can all be on Alicia’s level in their match, we need to do this in our match! We should all be the standard that makes people stand up and take notice and we can do it! All of us walk to that ring and tell the world we are all here to stay!
Seleana nods pointedly.
Seleana Zdunich: I know I will, so everyone else?
She motions at them to come on.
Seleana Zdunich: Let us show Alicia that it is not just her, that we ALL want to stand tall! And if Brittany wants to show the world she is better than us all then she has that opportunity as well!
The smile brightens as she nods.
Seleana Zdunich: ¡Te amo, Mija!
She claps excitedly and nods one more time.
Seleana Zdunich: Now, let us do this!
