Breakdown 1-11-24 #2

Kandis stands in the middle of a training ring at Ante Up Academy. Dressed in gym shorts and a sport halter top, her hair is up in two braids, hanging over each shoulder, and her skin is shiny with sweat from a workout. Hands on her ample hips, she shakes her head in annoyance.

Here we go again.

Once again, I have the rightful claim to the next World Championship match.

Once again, I am being fed more chum instead of being given what I'm owed.

And once again... someone who's earned nothing has been handed my spot.

Selena. Fucking. Frost.

Kandis shakes her head again, a look of disgust on her face.

This bitch has been hiding her face, sending wifey into do her battles, for six months, after I did exactly what I said I was going to do and put her in her place. Now all of a sudden, when I'm not the champion anymore, she comes crawling back and somehow gets my rematch?

What the fuck is CHBK smoking, and where can I get some?

In what universe does someone get to jump the rematch line ahead of the person who beat them for the title in the first place? Selena left! She made the world think she would never show her pale face in SCW again, and when she did that... in my mind she forfeited her right to a rematch. Yet apparently... Mr. Desoubrais has reasons he's gonna share with us this week at Breakdown.

Kandis laughs to herself, shaking her head once more.

I can't wait to hear this shit, and I will be front row center of where ever he decides to speak from, because I need to hear this said to my face.

Taking a step forward, Kandis points into the camera, now with an angry glare.

I am sick and tired of busting my sizable ass for this company only to get screwed at every turn. Look at the last year!

Kandis spreads her arms out wide, showing herself off.

I won the End of the Year battle royal. I beat damn near everyone put in front of me. I won the Flame! I pulled off what some people call the biggest upset in a long time when I defeated Selena on the biggest stage there is! I made the 'Face of SCW' hide that face when the fans she panders to turned against her, only to cheer me instead. They even voted me Female Wrestler of the Year!

Lowering her arms, Kandis smirks as she places her hands back onto her hips.

All the while, my activities outside the ring – yes, I'm talking about the sex video – drew more attention to SCW than it's had in years. Everyone wanted to see the hot chick wrestler who got caught with her legs in the air. I saw the ratings spike numbers, it's true. I could have sued every website who posted it. Instead, I ran with it.

Kandis steps back, spreading her arms out wide again.

I'm shameless!

I'm your whore!

And this is how SCW repays me?

Now up against the ropes, Kandis leans back on them, resting her spread-out arms on the top rope.

Put me against Autumn Valentine this week, one of the recent failures that challenged for my championship. Give Konrad Raab what he wants, a match against me at Body, Heart, and Soul in an environment he chose. Why does he get what he wants and I don't? Do I have to run around here threatening serious bodily harm to convince CHBK I mean business?

Pushing herself off the ropes, the camera now zooms in a little as Kandis speaks directly into the camera, her tone controlled and calm.

Because I can do that, if that's what he wants. Y'all know I have zero problems taking out a knee or a skull to put an exclamation point on my statement.

I proved last year that no matter what obstacles are put in front of me, I will not be stopped from getting what I want. Throwing me at Raab hoping I get burned – literally – is just a diversion tactic and it's not going to work. But that's next week.

Stepping into the middle of the ring once more, the shot zooms out as Kandis crosses her arms across her chest.

This week, I get Autumn. My old friend, right? Ruined a perfectly good friendship all to get her hands on a championship.

But that's Autumn, isn't it? She doesn't even care what championship. She just wants some gold so she can parade around with it and pretend like she matters to this business. But she doesn't, and she never will. She could... but she doesn't have it in her, and do you know why?

She doesn't do anything on her own.

Autumn came back from whatever injury it was, I don't know and don't care, and immediately decided she wanted to be Adrenaline Champion. Okay, it's great to have goals. But instead of just stating that and trying to earn it, no! She and Lexy Chapel came up with this ridiculous theory that Syren never had her rematch and since Autumn is part of Lexy's World, or whatever the fuck she's calling her little groupie club today, that she can step in as Syren's proxy and claim her rematch.

Listen, doll. That's not how this is supposed to work.

But, yet again, CHBK or whoever else is helping make decisions around here don't seem to care about the way things should be done, because just like Selena... Autumn is getting what she wants. She's facing Allocco and Lancaster in a triple threat for the Adrenaline Championship. As Syren's proxy.

Kandis smirks, wagging a finger in the air, as one might do when realizing something.

Proxy. That's a fun word. And position that Autumn is quite familiar with, isn't it? She's been a proxy girlfriend, a proxy wife – twice, if rumors are to be believed – and now she's trying to be a proxy champion. When is she going make her own place in this business instead of trying to fill the places of other people?

But you know what? I'm okay with that. Let her stay in her comfort zone. She can be another proxy, too.

She's taking the place of every other ass I want to kick. Just more chum.

Maybe if I beat enough bodies badly enough, like last time, I'll be granted what I'm owed. Maybe at Retribution. Hopefully sooner. Asher, Selena... I don't care. I've beaten them both and neither has pinned me in the last year. In fact, Selena never has.

Autumn will be the first one to tell you she has pinned me before, and that's true. There's no use arguing with facts. But that was a long time ago. I'm hot off the best year of my career, and Autumn is still shaking off the rust. I know she wants momentum heading into her title match, but I've shown time and time again that I am a momentum stopper. I could rattle off a list of people to ask about that, but I'm not in the business of name-dropping.

I'm in the business of ass kicking. And Autumn is next in line.

Kandis walks back and forth a few steps as she speaks, looking down, almost as if she's hesitant to say the words.

I've recently realized something, and I'm gonna share it with you. I've let myself get a little too comfortable with the support of the fans and maybe I enjoyed it a little too much.

Kandis looks up, to make her words clear.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the fuck out of it.

Pacing again, Kandis grins to herself as she speaks.

I never thought I'd ever hear crowds chanting my name. I'm too much of a bitch and I've always known it. Maybe that's what the people wanted, a real bad bitch, instead of a fake pandering one. Either way... while I appreciate it and... okay, I admit, I enjoy it... it's not what I get into the ring to do.

Kandis stops in the center and looks back up into the camera.

I'm here to shake my ass, kick some ass, and knock over anything and anyone that tries to stop me... no matter what I have to do.

It's time SCW and everyone else is reminded of that. I'm starting with Autumn, I'll continue it with Raab, and after that? I'm coming for my World Championship match. That will be the biggest reminder of all.

SCW is fucking me around, and they're gonna find out that I'm still not the bitch to fuck with.

Kandis glares for a moment before giving a single nod, and the video cuts.
