Sacrifice…
It’s something that most of the world has to deal with. In this world not everyone can get what they want. Sometimes you have to give up your hopes and dreams for the greater good. What that greater good is? I wouldn’t begin to know. This is not something I’ve had to deal with personally, but recent events are giving me an idea of what sacrifice is.
When you’re a young woman, you think that you have your whole life ahead of you. You never think that one day you’ll meet the most amazing man, and that after the greatest night of your life, the world as you know it will come to an end. That’s how she must have felt. I never meant for Lizzy to catch us…
I know she didn’t want to serve as a slave to Lizzy and myself. I guess she didn’t see what an honor it was. There are plenty of people who would have loved to be in her shoes. She basically won the lottery by being in the right place at the right time. I didn’t want her to die, I didn’t. But I had hoped her sacrifice would be the thing that saved my sister.
I always knew Lizzy was capable of murder. I even knew that she was capable of doing so in such a brutal manner. She has always been violent by nature. I thought once she crossed the line into taking someone’s life it might actually cure her of the bloodlust. For a while it did. A combination of that and touring Europe promoting her perfume seemed to calm her down some.
But it didn’t last forever…

But it didn’t last forever…
Landon sits on his bed inside of the Dalmon suite in Pesaro, Italy. As he closes his journal, hoping to maybe get a nap in, his sister comes barging in.
Lizzy: It’s about time!
She tosses her phone done on the bed next to her brother Landon. He looks up at his lovely sister while closing his journal.
Lizzy: Look at it…
He picks up the phone, and he sees what she is talking about. For the first time in over a month Lizzy has a match. Not just any match, a chance to become the IWF Shieldmaiden.
Landon: A title match...interesting…
She looks at her brother, less than enthused about his reaction.
Lizzy: Tell me exactly what that’s supposed to mean brother…
It’s never his intention to upset her, but sometimes he just reacts. He doesn’t always think about what he says.
Landon: I’m glad you are getting the opportunity sis, I am. You know how deserving I think you are...but I read earlier that there is a rumor going around that we might have paid someone off for a championship opportunity.
Lizzy isn’t at all phased at what is coming across as an accusing tone.
Lizzy: What’s so wrong about that? I signed with the IWF to compete and they continue to deny me the chance. Week in and week out I see the Diamonds using whatever advantages they have to gain success. Why should I be any different?
It’s no surprise to him that she used their massive wealth to gain an advantage. It works in the real world so why not in the IWF?
Landon: Dalmons are different my dear sister. It’s not like you to want to fit in.
Lizzy: This isn’t about fitting in! This is about getting everything promised to me, everything you promised me! I’m the one who looks like the failure out there. I’m doing what I can to fix it. It doesn’t matter how I get a title around my waist, it only matters that I have it!
Landon: Are you sure this is how you want to do it?
Lizzy: What choice do I have? The business has basically blacklisted me. I can’t find a trainer, so I can’t do things the right way. So I’m doing them the Dalmon way.
Landon: I don’t fully agree with this Lizzy, but I’ll always support you in anyway needed.
She smiles at her brother.
Lizzy: I know, and I know I haven’t been fair to you. Why don’t we change that?
She joins her brother on the bed and snuggles up against him. It looks like both of the Dalmon twins are finally going to get what they’ve desired.
I’m a Dalmon…
If you haven’t heard of us, well you must have been living under a rock. We are one of the wealthiest families in the world. We hold influence, and power, in almost every industry on the planet. That being said there is one business that we haven’t seemed to conquer...professional wrestling.
It’s a shame that the IWF, being the premiere wrestling company in the world, doesn’t understand what they have with me. I could expand their fan base if they would just give me all the things a Dalmon deserves. Instead they keep me off shows and don’t even allow me to show how much better I am than the rest of the Diamonds.
I’m starting to think they are just trying to use my name to make money…
I won’t let that happen.
Within a month I was facing Eternity for the Shieldmaiden. They put me in that spot to fail. They wanted to feed the new blood to their best, and teach me a lesson. Probably thought I would cry and go home. They obviously don’t know Lizzy Dalmon.
I earned my way into the Iron Maiden, but didn’t win it. It still wasn’t enough to prove to anyone that I belong here. All anyone sees me as is a rich, spoiled brat. That’s because they don’t know the real me. If they did...well I think they would be looking at me in a different, and a more serious light.
So I had to take matters into my own hands…
Lizzy Dalmon versus Shea O’Hara for the IWF Shieldmaiden championship.
There are going to be a lot of haters out there wondering why I’m getting a title shot. They are going to see how I haven’t had a match in over a month, and ask why her? To those people I answer, why not? I know people have seen the rumors about my brother and I paying off someone for a championship opportunity. It doesn’t matter if they are true or not, all that matters is...I have been grossly mistreated.
It was only three months ago that I was facing Shea O’Hara. On that night I know I surprised her and gave her more than she expected. It seems most people are surprised about what I can do, considering I’m mostly self taught. They forget that just by being a Dalmon you excel in everything you do. I’m just as good as anyone other Diamond on the roster, better! Don’t worry, the results will show that soon enough.
Shea, your career has taken an uptick since the last night we faced off. You did what most people would have said was impossible, you beat Eternity! As full of myself as I am, even I know how big of a deal that is. Now you find yourself trying to fill her shoes...you! I hope you understand just how absurd that is. It’s one of the funniest things the fans will hear all year.
In my eyes, you’re still the bottom of the barrel when it comes to Diamonds. Half the time I get you and Fiona McFly mixed up. You might as well be the same person. Irish is Irish after all, and pretty low on the human totem pole. Enough time has passed for me to say that right? I wouldn’t want to be compared to anyone else in that regard.
The word a can’t use for you anyone is failure.
You are IWF Shieldmaiden champion, and honor that I would love to have. I have plenty of things, almost too many to remember, but I don’t have a wrestling championship. I don’t have what comes with it, respect. If I had a title around my waist I think the IWF locker room, and the fans would see be differently. They would see me as the real deal.
As Shieldmaiden I can be someone the fans can look up to. I’m beautiful, talented, and a pleasure to be around. No amount of success is going to change the fact that you sound like you’re choking on something. It sure isn’t going to change how absolutely hideous you look. I wouldn’t even let my hired help take a turn with you. Deep down you know how unattractive you are…
That’s why you are content with being The Pitbull’s bitch!
You should consider yourself lucky Shea. It’s much better that I’m going to the Shieldmaiden title from you, rather than someone else. You already have so little going on for you in your life, I would hate for the championship to steal any of that away. I told you before that this business isn’t a good one for making friends.
Do you think your friends are going to be happy for you forever?
It won’t take long for happiness to turn into jealousy. How long until they turn on you Shea? How long until they want what you have? Trust me, you’re on borrowed time. That’s why it’s a good thing you have Lizzy Dalmon to take all those cares away. This way we both get what we want. I get the title I so rightfully deserve, and you get to keep your friends and man.
The simple things…
You might have beaten me before Shea, but that was then and this is now. You have no idea how desperate I’ve become, the lengths I will go. But you’re about to find out. At Sacrifice I will shorten your second reign as Shieldmaiden.
Your star will fade but Dalmons are forever!
