Denver, Colorado
Elitch Gardens Theme & Water Park
The road to Summer XXXtreme was officially underway and a lot of the SCW Bombshells were on the road to seeing what type of match they would be in for the huge summer event. However for one Crystal Caldwell it wasn’t about trying to push a narrative of what she should be fighting for but it was mostly about just getting the people to believe in her again, more importantly it was about her believing in herself. SCW had come into Denver, Colorado and it wouldn’t be long until Crystal would step into the ring with her biggest rival since deciding to return in Alexandra Calaway. The match was made official and all that was left was for Crystal and her to do battle. Crystal could have been doing anything in the world but she decided to show off for a Meet & Greet at the local water park. A crowd of people along with gathering of paparazzi had followed her. Crystal just took it all in clad in her two piece bikini. She smirked posing for the camera as well as taking photos with fans. She wasn’t alone as Mercedes Vargas stood next to her and held her Internet Championship against a shoulder. She was a bit more reserved in a one piece Bikini as she smirked at Crystal.
Mercedes:What did I tell you Christina?! Wasn’t it worth it to return?! All you needed was the right type of motivation, but from my point of view all of these people love you. They just can’t get enough of you. These people are here for you… Well and for me of course. It’s hard not to be here for yours truly when I got this!
The grin escapes her lips as she raises the Internet Championship high above her head. She turns her attention back to her friend who solely nods her head and replies back.Crystal:You do have a point. I don’t know where I would be if it wasn’t for you. This is all I ever wanted. I crave and love attention. It’s hard to acknowledge I am wanted until I have the crowd coming at me feet praising me for things I have done or yet to do. This is what life is all about.
Mercedes:Exactly! Just like I told you before this is what YOU deserve. You deserve it all.
Crystal just shrugs her shoulders before crossing her arms and looking back at her longtime friend.Crystal:I still don’t understand why you are going so far out of your way to help me. The two of us really didn’t care for one another during our time of being in SCW together. We have always seemed to be at each other’s throats. On top of that things didn’t really go so well for me in our last match together.
Mercedes:Last FEW matches together but who is counting?!
Crystal:Says the woman who is basically a walking stat book but I still don’t understand what gives about all of this. Don’t you feel this is just a bit wrong?! I mean Seleana really doesn’t really care for me speaking to you. She thinks you are a bad influence and…
Before Crystal can even finish her statement, Mercedes puts a single finger on his mouth as she gazes into her friends eyes. She cracks a wicked grin as she continues to speak.Mercedes:Please, I don’t want to hear anything about Seleana. Honestly this isn’t about what she wants but this is all about you. It may confuse you why I am reaching out but the truth is Crystal I care for you. We may have built a big rivalry between one another but we also have a strong friendship with each other. What about the time that the two of us were Tag Team Champions together in 3WL?!
Crystal:That feels LIKE AGES ago.
Mercedes:And who is the one that brought you to SCW in the first place?!
Crystal:You know that you are the reason for that.
Mercedes nods her head as she continues to grin.Mercedes:Well not only do I remember helping you come to SCW but I also do remember a certain woman welcoming me with open arms after the rest of the roster wanted nothing to do with me after the Mean Girls. You have always had my back Christina and I feel like I owe the same for you.
She stands next to Christina as she points at her waist.Mercedes:The woman I know wouldn’t shy away from anything resembling the spotlight. Now as far as why I would go out of my way to help you. It’s simple. I know that there is so much more potential within you. Not many women in SCW can say that they were a five time World Champion but you can claim that honor. Many people want to talk you down but that’s only because we all know that you are so much better than what you are portraying.
Crystal:You really think so?!
Mercedes:Crystal, I know so. Why do you think people are quick to get so upset at you?! It’s not because you are annoying but it’s because deep down they know there is that dominant wrestler within you. You just need to bring her to the surface. Once she rises up to the top, the sky is definitely the limit.
Crystal smirks as she looks right into the eyes of her friend.Crystal:Thank you Mercedes, I don’t know where i would be if I didn’t have you in my life.
Mercedes: Perhaps we can answer that question at some point. Anyway I will leave you to your photographers and fans. I have to catch up with Carmen but when I get back perhaps the three of us can change out of our bathing suits and we can find ourselves a ride on the roller coasters.
Crystal nods as she watches the Internet Champion walking away. A few moments go by and that is when she is able to see a figure storming in her direction. We see the newest member of the SCW Bombshell roster and other member of the Zdunich relationship in Diamond Caldwell. Her arm are crossed as she sighs and looks daggers right into Crystal.Diamond:It’s about time that I find you. Is there a reason that you haven’t been answering your phone or at least passing by the house?! We have all been worried about you but more importantly Seleana can’t stop thinking and talking about you. Aurora is constantly asking about you and Elijah wants to know why you haven’t been home in a long time, what’s up?!
Crystal is taken back as she backs up a few steps. She crosses her arms and she looks back at her “wife”Crystal:Excuse me but a simple HELLO CHRISTINA HOW IS YOUR DAY would have suffice. Do you know how rude you sound approaching me in public like this?! I am a busy woman and I do believe BOTH of you know that. I have public appearances to make. Meet and Greet required events that I have to be present for. I know it’s been a while since I really did such but I am a star and one of if not THE best women’s wrestler on the planet so put some respect on my name.
Diamond:Girl if you don’t cut the shit I swear I am going to yank the weave out of your hair and make it a public problem. I am sure you don’t want TMZ catching what I will do to you if you don’t answer me. So what gives?!
Crystal rolls her eyes before she sighs in return.Crystal:What gives is the fact I have been hanging out with Mercedes.
Diamond:EXACTLY!!! That’s a problem. You know Seleana doesn’t like her, you know it’s an issue that you are talking to somebody that Seleana openly doesn’t appreciate and yet here you are doing it anyway. Go on and tell me the truth. You are fucking her aren’t you?!
Crystal:Whoa! Is that what you think of me?! No, it’s not even like that. She’s just a friend, hell she’s like my big sister and we go back. I actually have known her way before I have known Seleana. I also don’t want to hear about Seleana not liking somebody. There are a lot of people that she associates with that I don’t care for. I have been through so much shit and finally after all of this time I am seeing things “Crystal” clear. Mercedes is just helping me acknowledge that I should be more focused on things that revolve around me and not carrying around dead weight.
Diamond begins to get upset as she crosses her arms and paces back and forth before raising her voice.Diamond:I KNOW YOU DIDN’T JUST CALL SELEANA DEAD WEIGHT! YOU MARRIED HER! Whatever happened to for richer or for poorer?! In sickness and in health?! You are supposed to be there for her, and we need to be there for each other.
Crystal:The real issue in all of this is the simple fact that Seleana can’t understand that I am trying to do what’s best for my professional career. I can tell you what the real issue is. Somewhere deep inside of Seleana’s skull is a woman who is just offended that Mercedes and I might form a team. I know it’s her dream for her and I to form something together but let me tell you something. We could have been a team in so many places.
Crystal begins to get upset as she continues to share her heart.Crystal:But her mind was always busy with teaming up with her sister Zenna, and forming this team called Wild Side. It’s like I didn’t matter. God forbid I have a friend that wants me to actually do good for me. She needs to grow up because I been on the backburner for far too long. It’s time I get my own respect and it’s time I rise back to the top where I was always meant to be! I love Seleana but I am finally confident and love who I am. It’s been a long time since I felt that way.
Diamond just shrugs her shoulders.Diamond:You love her so much that you missed your seventh wedding Anniversary. Seleana made a cake and expected you to come home but you couldn’t even do that. No gift, no phone call, not even a mention.
Crystal thinks about it as her draw begins to drop to the ground.Crystal:Damn… It was June 13th last week wasn’t it?! Damn it… I… I don’t even know what to say.
Diamond:Seleana also knows that you love Friday the 13th and your wedding anniversary fell on Friday the 13th this year. She had everything set up for you, and you couldn’t even bother to show up. Slasher movies, decorations and you just no showed… I get it that you wish to no show some matches and act like you don’t give a crap but you can’t do that to her.
Crystal:I…I….
Diamond continues to drive the point home as she speaks some more.Diamond:Or the kids, or even me, I hope this makes you happy. If you keep this up, Seleana is eventually going to just walk away and you won’t have anybody. This is what you wanted though right?! You better make sure you understand is what is at risk or else she will eventually walk away forever.
Crystal takes it all in and that’s when Mercedes could be seen walking towards her in the distance. Diamond notices her walking in their direction.Diamond:Anyway I will leave you to your friend. Make sure you make the right decision. Perhaps it is best to choose what’s logical instead of going for a fake friend who will only stab you in the back later on, but only you can decide. Love you.
With that Diamond walks away as Mercedes makes her way back over to Crystal. The two of them glance at one another before they just gaze over at Diamond in the distance.Mercedes:Is there something I need to be aware of?!
Crystal:I don’t want to talk about it. It’s not important.
Is the only thing that Crystal says as we leave on this image of the two of them.
So I guess you could say this has been a long time coming hasn’t it?! Now I know what all of you are thinking. Here comes Crystal trying to make a comeback once again. Haven’t we been in a position where we have heard this song and dance?! Isn’t this a case of the same old, yet same old?! I know that a lot could be said about yours truly. There is certainly a lot of hate when it comes to me. To be honest it doesn’t matter the date but you can easily glance at all of my years of being in SCW and it tends to become the same old thing. There is nobody in the history of SCW that can command as much attention as I can.
I don’t believe there has ever been a bombshell that could get people to hate them as much as I can, and it more than just hates me the sake of being a good wrestler. People just flat out don’t really care for me and it’s really sickening when you think about it. I will admit at first I would let all of it get to me. I would be quick to try to defend my actions because I wanted to be liked and loved. I just wanted to feel appreciation and as long as I was accepted nothing else mattered.
I realize as I look back on things I truly lost sight of who I was meant to be. I don’t need to be out here trying to play goody two shoes for the world to accept but I just needed to call my own shots and living in the moment that is me. It’s a damn shame that it took me having to lose to Andrea time and time again, and taking a huge swallow of a pill that is called reality to come to the realization that things aren’t going as well as I thought they would go.
I want to take the moment to give Mercedes a major thank you and it’s honestly because of her that I have started to value my self-worth again. It took a while but I have come to the conclusion that I have nothing to be ashamed of. Even if things have been rough for me it still doesn’t change the fact that I am the most decorated bombshell that this division has ever had. I am a Hall of Famer, I am a multiple time champion and am a FIVE TIME WORLD BOMBSHELL champion!
As such I should always be respected and people should instantly worship the ground I walk on. After all shouldn’t you praise and acknowledge the woman who the red carpet should always be rolled out for. I am a Hollywood Star and known to the masses as the Silver Screen Queen!
A Queen wants only one thing and that’s to have her throne and a place to reign over. SCW will be my kingdom and even though I have run away from my destiny for so long but it’s time I get back to the basics and get back to where I rightfully belong and that’s on top. It sounds good on paper but there is a woman on this roster who I felt disrespected me. I am talking about you Alexandra Calaway.
You won the Queen for a Day and you had the power to book whatever matches you felt were best. You had the power to control everything and you had your fun. What I didn’t appreciate however was the fact that in the midst of all your booking you decided to leave me off of your card.
I find that to be very disrespectful and I don’t appreciate all of the things you said about me during the Queen for a Day match. You tried to act like I am way past my prime and I am hanging on the entire identity of who I used to be. That may be true but I would rather much be considered to be a Has Been or someone who might be considered to be past her prime then to be a woman who happens to be a never was. You can talk up being a Queen slayer but the only reason why I haven’t been to top in a while is because I was my own worst enemy.
I let being a severe alcoholic and drug addicts get the better of me, and I caused my own self-destruction. I wouldn’t say that I am not a star anymore. It’s not because I don’t have the skillset anymore but more so because I don’t have the drive. I just haven’t found it in my heart to step up when need be, but something lately has awoken in me. I don’t want to be at the bottom of the barrel and to be considered a woman who just doesn’t care. I am so much better than that and I live and breathe for this business.
The only way in which things won’t go in the way that I had hoped for them to go is when I personally don’t give a fuck, but I want to say those days are long over with. I am more focused than ever and I refuse to have people like you tarnish my legacy like I am not good anymore.
I am way better than good, I am the best this company has to offer. The more people talk shit is the more of a reason I find myself rising up to the challenge and proving people like you to be wrong. Even if you feel like I don’t have it anymore who are you to judge me and what I am about.
I am still the star.
I am still an attraction.
I demand a red carpet be rolled out for me and I demand attention and you want to know why?! It’s because I have a Hall of Fame ring from this company and that’s something you could never take away from me.
From where I stand as much as you want to talk me down like you are this great wrestler, I am not going to take shit from a woman who’s biggest claim to fame while being in this company is being a multiple time Roulette Champion at best.
From what I have seen so far that is your ceiling and I don’t ever see you going anywhere beyond that. If you never move beyond being a woman stuck in the low to mid card nobody would give a fuck because you haven’t done anything. Yet when it comes to me people get upset when they don’t see the fire and drive that they are accustomed to seeing from me.
You want to know why?!
Is because they expect me to always be at the top of my game and if I give them any less than that it’s not good enough. To be honest you aren’t on my level. You never were on my level and the only way that you would ever defeat me is if I didn’t show any fucks but that’s not the case anymore. I am long past those days and I refuse to ruin my legacy anymore.
The only thing I care about is running through the entire division. Making women like Alicia Lukas, and Andrea Hernandez eat their words. Women who feel they are done with me. I will not tolerate the disrespect and I know for a fact that when pushed to the edge and to the point where I will show up. I definitely will show out. It’s as simple as that.
You won Queen for a Day and what exactly did you do with it?! You were a horrible Queen. If I was in your shoes I would have given myself a World title match or at least move in a direction where I could benefit. After all how often does a person have to really control their own destiny.
Obviously you didn’t see much in yourself or your own ability because you didn’t do anything with that moment. You let it go to waste and you are very foolish for that. You forced my friend Mercedes Vargas to defend her Internet Championship again against Bella and it’s not like it mattered. She ended up losing once again.
Is there anything that you can do right Alexandra?!
To be honest I highly doubt it. However as many mistakes as you made on your big day the biggest one you made was putting yourself into a position to disrespect me. Nobody does that to me and now you have unleashed something within me. Now I am back to a point where I am starting to care again. I am ready to put this division back on notice and I am going to take my place back on top of the food chain.
More importantly I think things are a little more different when I am actively on the shows and making everybody’s life a living hell. To be honest I thought this match between us would come at a later date. I didn’t expect for us to be facing one another so soon but honestly it really doesn’t matter.
Now is the time to start appearing on the radar of Mark Ward and Christian Underwood. After Frankie gets her little title shot we need to start building up to who might be in the best position to face the winner of Frankie and Kayla next. I plan to do everything in my power to make sure that woman is me. it’s been a long time coming but this queen certainly wishes to get her crown back, and I am willing to do whatever it takes to get there.
Gone are the days of me caring about who I step on in my professional career, I know there was a time where I was soft and I cared too much about trying to do the right thing for Seleana or for my family. Those days are long gone. It’s all about me and as long as I come out ahead at the end of the day that’s the only thing that matters.
You can push as much as you want to Alexandra but you are nothing compared to me. If you really think that my best years are behind me what are you going to say when you get beat by me and you are going to be laid out on your back glaring at the ceiling?! You really won’t have too much to say but accept the fact that Crystal is definitely back.
On Climax Control it appears that you and I are on a definite Collision Course with one another. Both of us want to be relevant. Both of us want to be on top. You wish to destroy all the Queens but I pride myself on being the very epitome of me. It seems you and I both have a serious conflict of interests but only one’s ideals are going to pull ahead of the others.
If you didn’t realize it by now only one of us will be able to get what we want and you are looking at the woman who would betray her own mother, daughter, or even wife to get to the top. 2025 is all about cementing my legacy. It’s about proving that I am the best of the best, and it’s about putting women like you to rest.
I have doubted so many different things but one thing I am certain about is the simple fact that I am better than you. I will beat you and it will be back to grinding through the roster one Bitch at a time.
You will go back to being an afterthought. While you are left questioning how you lost to Crystal, I will be in a good place where I am that much closer to getting what I want.
Nobody and nothing will stop me from achieving what I want. It’s time to shake up the very foundation and to prove to everybody that Crystal Caldwell is somebody not to be laughed at.
You can make fun of all the different names, you can make fun of all of the identities, you can even ridicule all the personalities but what you want be laughing at is when I start carving my way through the Bombshell roster people like you will be forced to acknowledge that I am indeed as good as I say I am and I am back to prime form.
When it’s all said in done you will bow before me and you will come to the understanding that I am the one Queen that you cannot slay.
Let’s go out and make a movie shall we? It’s time to roll the credits on you once and for all. Welcome to the curtain call, feel free to take a bow because I am personally putting an end to your show.
Lights
Camera
Action
It’s showtime. Please don’t disappoint me. You along with the rest of the world will see the rise of the SILVER SCREEN QUEEN!!!!
See you in Denver…
