It seemed as so Cassie was going to miss out on her second High Stakes, not to mention her second Supercard in a row after missing Violent Conduct the month before, as when the card for this year’s show was made public the twenty two year old’s name was nowhere to be found and to make things worse for Cass? Candy, someone she viewed as not putting in nearly as much effort as she did, had made the card against the returning Amelia Reynolds!
However the storm she subsequently kicked up on Twitter after voicing her frustration seemed to pay off in Cassie’s favour as the bosses added her to one of the existing matches and made it a Triple Threat, the match in question? What was previously a singles contest between former Bombshell Internet Champion Bella Madison and former Mixed Tag Team Champion Bea Barnhart, thus making the match a Triple Threat, can Cassie get the win?

This is fucking ridiculous.
When I missed the Violent Conduct Card last month I thought the bosses were still concerned about the damage my bad leg has sustained in the Disco Inferno Dance of Death Match when I hit Bea with the Heir to the Wolfe (Running Powerbomb into a Lungblower) blowing out the knee in the process even through they had put me in a singles contest against Andrea Hernandez the week after that match, did I lash out in the seg I taped for the show? Yeah, but as far as Twitter was concerned I stayed quiet and just focussed on helping Harper prepare for her title defence against Alicia weekend.
Setting aside the fact that Alicia is now the champ I headed into the following cycle hoping things would be better, especially after I beat two former champions in Lilith Locke (which ended up being her last match with the company) and Candy at the first Climax Control of the cycle and faced Frankie Holiday in her first World Bombshell Title Defence a week later, and then?
Nothing, nada, zip.
Maybe it was the fact that they were holding two tournaments at the same time for the remainder of the cycle following the first Climax Control of the cycle but after the biggest match of my career to date I saw my Climax Control bookings dry up faster than a woman within five feet of The Troll while Harper dealt with her saga against Mercedes, I helped her out against Mercedes and Crystal when they attacked Zenna Zdunich after her non-title match against Mercedes but then, when the card for the Supercard was announced?
I wasn’t on it, instead several lesser talents like Candy, the Metal Maniacs and Bea Barnhart were booked and this time? I wasn’t staying quiet, and off course because I dared to speak up for myself I’m being labelled a cry-baby.
”Who the fuck does that sanctimonious prick think he is?!” I muttered to myself as I tried to take my frustration out by playing Elden Ring on my PC, keyword being try. ”Christian really thinks that being a former champion is a valid reason to book Candy over me? That bitch hasn’t held a title in years and half asses everything she does while I literally wrestled Andrea fucking Hernandez on one leg a week after I blew it out mid match? Fucking joke!”
“Cass, you know I can hear you in there.” Josh called out from the other side of the door to me and I rolled my eyes, he and Harper had popped round an hour ago to discuss our plans for the Supercard and Josh’s upcoming speech after he gets inducted into the Hall of Fame but the moment my absence from the card and my tweets came up was the moment I locked myself in my room and pretty much told them to fuck off. “We can talk about this!”
”What the fuck is there to talk about?!” I snapped back as I glared at the doorway. ”The brain trust in charge overlooked me again and when I vented on twitter suddenly I’m the bad guy?!”
“You went after one of the most beloved Bombshells on the roster.” Josh called back and if I could roll my eyes any harder? I would, but right now I’m trying to beat one of the hardest base game bosses in Mohg: Lord of Blood. “And you’re telling me that you didn’t expect backlash?!”
”Backlash from who?! Idiots who think it’s still 2020 even though the world hasn’t gone to shit?!” I snapped back as I turned my attention away from the screen. ”I don’t care that both me and Candy are PWS: Apex Alumni, so’s most of the modern roster, what I care about it the fact that Candy hasn’t given a single solitary fuck about her SCW Career since she came back and Christian still thinks she’s more worthy of a Supercard Slot than me!”
“Not everyone can make the Supercards, we both know that! Maybe you should’ve listened to reason……………” I heard several phones going off at once, mine, Harper’s and Josh’s and it was enough to distract me long enough for Mohg to finish me off. “Did you get that Cassie?”
”Yeah, yeah, hold on a sec!” I called back before grabbing my phone off the computer desk and having my character rest at a Lost Site of Grace, it was a short text message from SCW, the kind that really only came about once in a blue moon, bit the subject couldn’t be clearer. ”CARD SUBJECT TO CHANGE: Cassie Wolfe has been added to the match between Bella Madison and Bea Barnhart.”
“Can I come in or not?” Josh asked and after turning off my PS5? I unlocked and opened the door. “Are you happy with yourself?”
”Happy that Christian has come to his senses? Yes, happy that I’m inevitably going to be called a tantrum throwing toddler for daring to call out this bullshit?” I quickly shook my head. ”No but way too many wrestlers on the roster are all too happy to tow the company line and are afraid to call out bullshit when they see it! I stood up for myself against an idiotic decision that again proved that Mark was the brains of the operation and not Christian!”
“In the real world this would be insubordination and you’d get written up, not given an opportunity to prove them wrong.” Josh responded as he shook his head and I rolled my eyes. “I can only do so much as your manager Cass, ultimately the decision lies with Christian!”
”You’re about to be inducted into the SCW Hall of Fame and Jessie’s doing your induction speech! Don’t give me that shit!” I responded s I brushed past the much taller man. ”Come on, don’t we have a meeting to continue?”
“We do, but this discussion isn’t over.” Josh responded as he let out a deep breath. “Harper did the same thing at Inception only to a lesser extent, I’m supposed to be guiding your careers and this happening whenever you get denied opportunities to compete doesn’t help you case!”
”Sometimes the bosses need to be reminded that they’d be nothing without hungry young talents like me!” I snapped back before going down the stairs to the living room where Harper was waiting. ”And Christian definitely needed to be put in his place after all the shit he tweeted!” I added before heading down the stairs.
Hero Academy, Las Vegas, Nevada
Wednesday the 29th of October 2025, 13:00pm
So yeah, how has your week been?
Since I got added to the High Stakes Card on Monday I’ve pretty much stayed off twitter to focus on my training, same goes for Harper and her match against Mercedes and Victoria for the Bombshell Internet Championship though we’ve been trying to make it so that we’re not training at the same place on the same day.
Today? Harper’s training at Josh’s private gym elsewhere in the city and I’m at Hero Academy getting some reps in before we head out to Tucson for High Stakes, anyone who knows me knows that my personal history is tied to this place’s formation but to summarize: I initially trained under retired British Wrestler Matthew Kennedy who’s claim to fame is being one of the first Roulette Champs, at the time he was managing my older half sister Krystal during the tail end of Krystal’s title reign and sought to use me to control Krystal better.
Long story short? It backfired, he hasn’t been seen in years, Team Hero brought his place out, rebranded it Hero Academy and I went on to be the first wrestler to graduate, the second? Harper, yeah, there’s a reason we call ourselves Young Justice.
Since then there’s only been one other graduate: Ayden Lionvale, daughter of some b-movie horror actress from Hollywood who’s been tearing up the indies for the past month or so and before now it had been a couple of years since the last graduation so yeah, the standards for graduation are really high here.
”98…………..99………………….. I muttered to myself as I did some pullups, helping me with my workout was Thea, a taller girl who not only towered over my 5ft 3 ass but was a former basketball player to boot. ”100!”
“Well, if nothing else Cass, your abs will look amazing for High Stakes.” Thea teased me with a grin before the redhead pulled me up. “Any regrets over the twitter storm?”
”As far as getting me booked? No, as far as Josh and the rest of the roster goes?” I only shrugged my shoulders before taking a sip from my drink. ”Maybe they were right and I’m too angry/stubborn to admit it but I stand by what I said on Twitter, candy’s just here to collect a paycheque rather than put in any actual effort!”
“Not saying I disagree but you did ruffle a few feathers among my fellow trainees.” Thea admitted as she folded her arms and motioned towards the other trainees, both make and female. “You’d be surprised at how many of them count Candy among their favourite wrestlers.”
”Let them, and if they ever graduate and make it to SCW they can learn firsthand why the old saying “never meet your heroes” rings especially true in wrestling, no pun intended!” I added before motioning to the Hero Academy banner that hung above the rings and Thea barely supressed a chuckle. ”But right now? I’m focussed on getting as much prep done for the Triple Threat against Bea and Bella at High Stakes as I can before I head out to Tucson with Josh and Harper.”
“Meant to ask actually.” Thea asked as she brushed some hair over her shoulder. “Were you surprised that they made that match a Triple Threat by adding you and not Amelia and Candy’s match?”
”Way I saw it? Christian was either going to add me to Amelia’s return match or put me in something else and use the drama as a setup for a match between me and Candy at the next Climax Control.” I shrugged my shoulders before shaking my head. ”You know, knowing how much that man loves drama.”
“Understatement of the year, am I right?” Thea responded with a grin before motioning to the ring. “Up for a sparring match?”
”Always.” I responded with a grin before following the taller girl into the ring.
Cassie’s promo room, Las Vegas, Nevada
Wednesday the 29th of October 2025, 21:00pm
*promo time*
Yeah, I had a lot of things on my mind heading into this promo.
”Look, I have been outspoken for about as long as I have been an adult woman, when I see bullshit, I call it out and as of late? No bullshit stunk more than the fact that I literally had to fight for my spot on High Stakes!” I stated before the green screen behind me showed Candy. ”Especially when a woman who hasn’t given a shit in years gets on the card without a second thought
And off course when I decided to speak out against this crap? The spineless few who’s rather kiss the bosses’ rear end than do what’s right ganged up on me!” I stated before the green screen showed my face alongside Bea Barnhart and Bella Madison. ”Fitting that I am now facing one those who decided that no, I shouldn’t get away with this without being called a cry-baby alongside someone arguably just as bad as Candy in Bea Barnhart!”
Yep.
”You know Bella? I actually used to think that you had a backbone before this whole episode but I guess Christian took that from you when you finally won a title!” I scoffed as I folded my arms. ”I mean seriously, are you that blind to the bullshit that was happening? I’ve busted my ass for over a year now, I already missed the one year anniversary of my Supercard debut because Christian suddenly has a “what have you done for me lately” attitude towards me but rather than call him out you take his side?
I guess Laura Phoenix has all the balls in the Madison family after all! Oh wait, your mother took his side too so she’s full of shit as well!” I added as I shook my head. ”Believe me Bella, I’m going to take pleasure in beating you up come High Stakes! Maybe then Christian will finally get his head out of his ass but I doubt it!”
And lest we forget?
”And here’s where the “former champions deserve special treatment” argument REALLY falls apart, because yes, Bea is a former Mixed Tag Champ but does anyone honestly remember her reign?” I asked before putting a hand up. ”Don’t answer that because that’s a trick question! Her reign practically lasted all of five minutes before Queen Alicia Lukass used her Queen for a Day powers to practically gift wrap the titles for Austin James Mercer and Tempest!
And yet, she keeps getting booked because fuck logic!” I declared as I threw my hands up in disbelief. ”Bea? You’re one of the biggest jokes on the roster and no one is laughing with you! I would’ve had you pinned the first time we met in Ibiza if hadn’t blown out my knee taking you out but now? My knee’s stronger than ever and I will take you down!”
It's that simple.
”Getting myself on the card after Christian randomly decided that over a year’s worth of hard work suddenly wasn’t good enough for two Supercards in a row was one mistake corrected even if it took Christian’s idiotic decision making to be called out for what it was for this Triple Threat to happen! And the ass kissers on the roster wonder why I took to twitter to call out this bullshit!” I declared angrily as I folded my arms. ”Spineless cowards like Bella who’d rather tow the company line than actually see my point will pay soon enough and Bea? She’ll just be a casualty!”
And with that I decided to wrap things up.
”But please, continue to preach on about hard work being rewarded when this shit happens!” I scoffed before glaring at the camera. ”And trust mem the fact that Amelia Reynolds was the only one who saw this shit for what it was, me advocating for myself against management’s bullshit, isn’t lost on me either! To all my fans? In a world of fake queens and rose tinted nostalgia goggles for the fucking pandemic? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess! And Bella and Bea? You ladies had better be ready because I’m pissed off and Hungry Like The Wolfe!”
I turned off the camera as the scene fades.
