Extreme Endurance…
This is the moment that I been waiting for. This is the very moment where my check list becomes more than just a bucket list of things I wish to accomplish before my career is over. It becomes a reality because at Extreme Endurance the dreams, and aspirations of a little girl who grew up always having to follow in her older siblings footsteps will finally be able to make her own name for herself. Because everything comes into focus and my identity will be reclaimed.
Truthfully it has honestly been hard to walk in my shoes in this company for the past year. Wherever I go everybody always seems to say the same exact things over and over again. People claim that I don’t have it anymore. People are quick to say that I am washed up. That I am a has been and I just don’t have it anymore but the whole point of me coming out with a checklist is to remind myself that there are still things that I wish to accomplish inside of the wrestling ring, and as long as I put my mind to it. I can accomplish anything.
Which includes becoming the Shield Maiden Champion, and to me it’s important not because it’s a trinket that I wish to wrap around my waist. Oh no it means more to me than just a piece of jewelry or anything like that. I know when you all look at me you see the stuck up bitch with the attitude. The mouthy little Latina who will talk you down like none other just to prove a point. So it could go nicely with my A List credentials. Something I could show off on Rodeo Drive as I walk around and the paparazzi snap endless photos of me.
That in itself does seem like a beautiful sight but to be honest the reason why I want the Shield Maiden over anything else right now is because it represents being a fighting champion. Being the champion of a division where you are expected to defend it twice a month. Where you are expected to wrestle on every single show and showcase your abilities to the crowd as being an awesome wrestler.
And the end of the day that’s what I want more than anything else. The power to know that by the end of the night all of you will in fact respect me, and for every single negative that anyone has ever had about me when it has come to being half of a champion. Or my fluke of a Ruby Championship run.
I can put all of that to rest by simply showing off the title that I won with my own bare hands and that being the Shield Maiden Championship.
It’s getting to the point where I may seem desperate but I have been involved in the Shield Maiden hunt since the very beginning. When I was in the initial match and I got cheated out of winning when brass knuckles got sent against my face. Or the way that Kayla defeated me in the rematch.
There was also times where I could have built some momentum for myself but I became the pickings of women such as Avery Barnes who isn’t here anymore, and I got put on the backburner and had to earn my way back to this spot. In the Iron Maiden match I fell short in my quest to win the Shield Maiden Championship. There were open challenges and of course when Paige was the champion I challenged her twice but I just couldn’t come away with a win. Could you believe that has been a total of five chances at this title and now I am walking into my sixth opportunity.
That’s so much for one woman to bare and I refuse to be DENIED yet again! I am hell bent on that title and for my identity to be reclaimed. I need to have that defining moment in this company. I need to be a woman who not only preaches about standing in the spotlight and being a main eventer but actually have the ability to be able to take the next step in her career, and that’s what I am aiming to do at Extreme Endurance.
Now to really show off my level of endurance would to formally announce that I am going to be in both matches. After all I am one of the best high flyers on the roster so that Diamonds Championship match would be quite the opportunity but I don’t want to be placed in a situation where I am taking on more than I can chew. I don’t want to be a jack of all trades and a master of none, and that’s why my eyes are on this four way match, and solely on this match alone.
You four women don’t know what’s it like to walk a day in my shoes. Paige maybe you might as you were right under Alexis Caffery but for me. The day I signed up to wrestle in that other company of NCW I was stuck in my best friends shadows. First it was Zelda Knite. She had the name. The reputation among everything else and in that company it was about failed opportunities. Not knowing how to step up or set out on my own path. I was stuck in the shadows and it was only when Zelda and I decided to BRING in our own tag titles was I ever acknowledged as a champion, and we went to another company where I had a name. Where I was a Hall of Famer. Things were good until she surpassed me and she basically had to give me a midcard belt just so I could be acknowledged as a grand slam champion.
Or should I bring up my sister in law at the time Jenny Williams. A woman I had trained to be a wrestler and when she joins that company she becomes the best female wrestler to ever wrestle in that company second to Zelda. I was in this company and did nothing but Jenny was able to have a run with the Ruby Championship.
It may not have been that long but at least she can say she held a title on her own. Something I haven’t done here.
Does it bother me?!
Yes it does because I know I am much better than that, and I don’t want to get overshadowed by the company that I keep. This match is about opportunity. It’s about a second chance, and it’s about finally being able to grab that brass ring. Paige… I don’t like you for what you stand for. For the way your sister bails you out on occasion but when it’s time to fight your own battles. You have shown that you have what it takes to walk on your own feet.
You didn’t let Alexis overshadow you but you showed that away from her you could make it and what you have done during your run as champion showcases that much. You have made it and I commend you for your long reign but all good things must come to an end, and you are looking at a woman who feels that it’s her time to shine, and I won’t let you get the better of me. I have beaten your sister, and now it’s time for you to get what’s coming to you.
It’s time for you endure the hell that I am about to put you through. For every time one of our matches was made a mockery by that of your sister. For every time you stuck your nose in my affairs. This time I will finally overcome the hurdle that is you and win the title around your waist.
Fiona when it comes to you. You have been my biggest adversary in this entire company. Whenever I try to move in the right direction you always seem to be one step ahead to clip my wings. You seem to be right there to prevent me from gaining any momentum and it annoys me.
You have a lot that you fight for. A grandfather who I know is your everything to you but for me it has always been about myself, and I am not doing this to make someone else happy. This is all about me! And nothing but me!
Fiona you have suffered from being a failure since you got here. You were a whipping post in the very beginning then you became a righteous women who thought she was speaking for the entire roster.
Yet where did any of your righteousness get you?! It got your ass handed to you in every outing. You won the Iron Maiden and did nothing with it. You have been in these high profile matches and just like me have fell short.
So what makes this time different from the other times?! What do you plan to do different this go around?
In my eyes not much. Once a loser always a loser. So This Sunday I expect history to repeat itself when it comes to you.
That leaves me with just Pandora and you are truly the wild card in all of this. You seem to be good natured and I can admire that. Quite bubbly too. You have Kathy Conway right behind you so that could mean a lot of things to you. It might give you the momentum factor and you might think you can take on the world but let me be Crystal clear with you.
It still drives me insane that you were able to gain a win over me in the Heiress to the Throne series. It pains me to know that these new women can just waltz into this company and somehow gain wins over me. All of that is going to stop when we face one another in the ring.
I am not here for friendship.
I am not here to be buddy buddy with people.
I am here for one thing and one thing only. To emerge as a champion and I won’t let anyone get in the way of that. Only one woman in this match has been denied of this title since the very beginning. Only one woman has walked into five matches for the title and not been able to walk away victorious.
It’s time to rewrite the history of Crystal Millar, and change how all of you view me.
That perspective changes at Extreme Endurance, and an identity will be reclaimed because at the end of the day there’s only one box on the checklist that matters. The box that states “Shield Maiden Champion”
This is my match to lose and I won’t lose it. I will see all of you inside the ring.
Nothing and I mean nothing will ever stop this rose from blossoming…
For I AM THE SILVER SCREEN QUEEN….

Brooklyn, New York
Right Outside Atlantic Terminal
{Crystal had stepped off of the Long Island Rail Road train with her sixteen year old daughter, and the two of them walked up the stairs of Atlantic Terminal until they reached the top floor. The crowds were already gathering up as the city of Brooklyn had been decked out with banners on the light poles marketing the fact that Extreme Endurance was coming to town. For the beginning of fall it was quite the warm day but that didn’t stop Crystal from wearing her hoodie. Crystal and her daughter walked across the street until they were staring down the Barclays Center. Brittany offered a long sigh as she looked at the building.}
Brittany: “So are you ready for this mom?!
{Crystal looks at the building as she offers a long sigh.}
Crystal: “More than I ever will be I guess…Although I get chills just thinking about competing in front of the New York crowd. They can be really ruthless and in one instance they could cheer you and at the drop of a dime they could boo you in the next instance. It’s a rough crowd especially considering we are wrestling in Brooklyn of all places…”
Brittany: “And what’s wrong with Brooklyn?!”
Crystal:: “Well New York City as a whole is where hip hop originated and these people know what they want and if you don’t deliver then then you can forget about anything. But New York City represents a life I want to forget…”
{Brittany raises an eyebrow as she glances back at her mother.}
Brittany: “I don’t understand…”
Crystal: “You probably wouldn’t because all you know is Los Angeles, but as soon as your father and I got married. We moved to New York city because it’s where your dad is from as you know. He was a man with money. A teenage prodigy who was left with a corporation to run. His father Roman. Your grandfather was a very sick man. He was the biggest criminal mastermind in all of the city. Willcorp was always just a front to expand on the Williams family business of running a drug syndicate. It made the family a lot of money. More than you could ever imagine…”
{Crystal takes a breather as she continues to speak.}
Crystal: “How we live in Hollywood Hills is nothing compared to the type of cash that the Williams family was bringing in. Roman had always chose Jenny to be his successor because he couldn’t stand to look at your father because your grandmother died in childbirth. She knew the complications but she decided to give birth to your father anyway…”
Brittany: “Wow… I ummm….”
Crystal: “But that’s not it… Roman tried to get back at Todd… He tried to….”
{Crystal begins to break down and cry as Brittany just stands there not knowing what to say.}
Brittany: “What?!”
Crystal: “Rape me… But your father stopped that. He shot him dead…. He took over Willcorp and he promised to changed the business. Which he did in the beginning. He made it a successful hotel chain and things were good. Money was good and he gave me everything I could ever imagine. I wanted to be an actress so he just used some of his money to buy me my own movie studio….I wanted to be a wrestler… So he let me go train with my biological father in Mexico for a year… I really thought things were good…”
{Brittany shrugs her shoulders as she looks back at her mom.}
Brittany: “So what was wrong then?!”
Crystal: “It’s the fact that when I came back to New York to your father there was nothing for me. People didn’t want to see women’s wrestling twelve years ago. They just wanted to see a pretty face. So I got stuck being your father’s valet. I got stuck being an interviewer for a wrestling company and was told I didn’t have what it took to wrestle in the ring. Or was placed in a position where I accepted just because I was married to your father… I know you wanted us together but I just couldn’t be with him anymore…”
Brittany: “Well you did leave him for Steve Awesome at one point…”
Crystal: “But this goes beyond the realm of that… This goes to the fact that we were kids that simply got married to one another. Who stuck together for as long as we did because we had you before we even made it out of high school. Do you know how it felt to be the girl everyone looked at because she had a kid at the age of 13? Do you know the struggle to get ridiculed because you dropped out of high school to be a mother?!”
{Crystal shakes her head.}
Crystal: “That was my life Brittany… And it pains me that throughout my marriage with Todd… He tried to use you as leverage against me during my plead for a divorce. He brought up the fact that I was an alcoholic among other things just to keep me from you, and that’s stupid. When I think of Brooklyn I think of the way your father chose running his family business over getting closer to his own immediate family. I think about the way he put himself first over anything else. I couldn’t sit there and take it anymore, and I wouldn’t let you go through that. So that’s why I asked for that divorce, and I hope you don’t hate me for it…”
Brittany: “I understand… You did what you had to do….”
Crystal: “So competing in this city is a bad reminder of what I went through during the early stages of my marriage. All of the times I was just a yes woman and I didn’t say anything in return…”
Brittany: “Don’t think that way because I think you made the right decision… Choosing me… I am happy to be with you. I know we get into it at some times but I love being with you mommy… And tonight you can make Brooklyn your biggest strength…”
Crystal: “And why is that?!”
Brittany: “Because despite everything you been through you can rewrite history by winning in that building. The heartaches of a brooklyn marriage. The reminders of of everyone telling you that you couldn’t make it, and this entire city as a reminder of where you used to be. You win and become the champion that I know you can be, and you single handedly just reclaimed your identity. Isn’t what this trip is all about? To reclaim what you once lost…”
{Crystal nods her head.}
Crystal: “It is but with everyone thinking I am a has been or washed up. Do you think I have what it takes?!”
Brittany: “Of course you do… This is your chance to shine… Just do what you know you can do. This is all about you… So just reclaim it, and if you lose at least put on a show where people know that you have taken your identity back and they can’t do anything to wipe that smile off of your face…”
Crystal: “Thank you Brittany… I really needed that… I will reclaim it… For you…”
Brittany: “Don’t do it for me…. Do it for yourself… This is what you been working hard for so just go out and do it….. But if you want to do something for me. We could go to shake shack across the street or maybe Juniors down the block to have cheesecake. I hear they have the best in town! Your treat on you!”
Crystal: “Fine let’s get going…”
{Crystal smiles as she looks at the building. It wouldn’t be long before she would be fighting with everything she got, and by the end of the night she would reclaim what she left behind. Her identity, and she didn’t care what people thought about it.}
