{The scene opens inside Roxi and Keira’s condo with Roxi and Keira in workout gear, stepping out of the ring in their gym. The two have just finished training, a little sweaty and the proud superheroine couple are pretty much all smiles as they wipe off with towels.}
Roxi – Well… that was nice.
Keira – It was a pretty good workout.
Roxi – Pretty good? I thought it went well.
{Keira arches a brow}
Keira – I meant intensity wise.
Roxi – Oh, yes… it was. But the intensity was a little off.
Keira – I mean, I know we held back here because, why use the energy when we have a bigger match coming, but… even still, this was more off than usual.
{Roxi sighs and shakes her head.}
Roxi – Because it’s Christine.
{Keira sighs too.}
Roxi – It’s going to be so hard to… treat this like any normal match.
Keira – I know, she’s… she’s one of us.
Roxi – Yeah. We’ve known her for so long, and now to have a match against her, even if it is friendly, is going to be tough.
Keira – Is that why you held back so much?
Roxi – Yes. I don’t want to hurt Christine. Or make her mad. I don’t want to lose this friendship over this match, even though it’s supposed to be friendly.
{Keira props herself on the edge of the ring.}
Keira – Yeah, I got the same thing running through my head. We’ve have so many good times with her it’s really hard to sit here and say that now we have to sit here and talk about beating her up.
Roxi – We’re not going to beat her up. We’ve got to wrestle her.
Keira – But you know how she is… one of those personalities comes out, and then it’s a different match.
Roxi – I’m expecting it. But, trying to avoid it the best I can. I just want to beat her, not upset her.
Keira – But… what if there’s no way around that? I mean, think about it. Angel is very protective of Christine. The moment she gets hurt, the moment it’s going to change.
{Roxi sighs and shakes her head, leaning on the ring with her left arm.}
Roxi – I know. This is going to be so difficult. I can’t help but see Christine, even when I know it’ll be Angel. It’s Christine for goodness sake.
Keira – Yeah, but you have to remember it’s Angel who’s most likely going to be in control.
Roxi – Yeah… I know. If she’s going to let Angel out for the whole match… crap. Maybe I shouldn’t have held back as much.
{Keria looks up and shrugs.}
Keira – You wanna go back into the ring and let off some steam?
Roxi – I don’t want to let of steam, I just want to be careful. I mean, it’s still a match.
Keira – Well, therein lies the problem. How do we both treat this match, and the one upcoming. Is it just a match? Or… it’s a match you’d like to win.
Roxi – I mean, New Edge really wanted me to come and I don’t wanna let them down. I mean, I was expecting to wrestle someone else maybe, not Christine. And I’ve been resigned to pretty much thinking, it’s a match with me and Christine, and it’s going to be fun.
Keira – But…
{Roxi sighs}
Roxi – But I saw Christine’s first match when she came back and it dang sure wasn’t pretty for her opponent. She’s an animal when she wants to be. I think we may need more intensity. I was wrong to hold back.
Keira – You’re learning that too.
Roxi – Don’t start.
Keira –It’s the truth. You need to learn not to be so nice.
Roxi – I can’t help it. I am a nice person!
Keira – Too nice if you ask me. You need a mean streak.
{Roxi turns and looks up at Keira in the ring with a stern look on her face.}
Roxi – You know what happened the last time that went down.
{Keira frowns.}
Keira – Right, right. Still, couldn’t hurt to get back in the ring and be more prepared.
Roxi – Yeah, you’re right.
{Roxi climbs up on the apron of the ring and slowly enters it. She leans back against the ropes, looking at Keira.}
Roxi – What about you, when you wrestle her?
Keira – I’m going to do what I always do.
{Roxi gets off the ropes as she and Keira circle.}
Roxi – Something tells me we’re going to right back in this spot talking about this next week.
{Keira smirks}
Keira – Probably. I mean… she’s like… our 3rd, you know? One of the first girls we ever had with us after her breakup. She was just… there, and has always been so good to us.
Roxi – Which is why this is hard.
Keira – I’m trying to block that out.
Roxi – How’s that working?
Keira – It’s not.
{Both girls giggle}
Roxi – You ready?
Keira – As I’ll ever be.
{The two lock up and begin wrestling around as the scene fades.}
Hello there all of New Edge Wrestling! Hope you guys are all doing well!
So, first and foremost, I’m really excited about coming to New Edge and Minneapolis tomorrow. I know it’s going to be an exciting show since New Edge is back. I had been kinda toying with idea of coming to New Edge before it took a hiatus and really, my schedule just didn’t permit. But now that I’m more or less picking and choosing dates to work, and as previously mentioned I had my eye on this place. It’s a perfect match. I’m am extremely honored to have the opportunity, and the chance to be in the New Edge ring, and work on a great pay-per-view. The only thing that isn’t a perfect match, is my actual match.
Now, when I was approached about the match, I had no real feelings about my opponent, but it was announced I would be facing one of my best friends in the whole world, Christine Nash. I love Christine to death, and it is amazingly difficult for me to treat this like a normal match. How can I possibly do such a thing? I dreaded cutting this promo for the past few days. I could never sit here with a straight face or even a half serious face and tell Christine during this promo that I’m going to kick her butt or wipe the floor with her or anything like that. She is my friend. It hurts me on the inside to just say I have to wrestle her. It’s just… not an ideal situation is all I’m saying here. Nobody ever really wants to wrestle a friend. Especially one who you have so much history with. And it’s not like Christine has even so much as pushed me before. She’s never done anything wrong to make me hate or even slightly dislike her.
But, at the same time, I know I’m not exactly facing Christine. I’m facing her protector in Angel. I know Angel and have dealt with her many times as one of Christine’s personalities. She is fiercely protective of Christine and will not hesitate to strike like a mama bear. I’m more worried about that anything else. I love Christine with all my heart and I don’t want anything to change that, so this match is a big time bridge we have to cross. All the fun and love we’ve shared could potentially go out the window based on what happens. I know that my love for her will never change, no matter what. I just hope that when this match is over, that things remain the same on both sides. I know I will always be there for her. It just pains me how much I have to try and beat her.
I’m not stupid, I know that this match will be intense because of Angel, and that she could attempt to hurt me if she feels I’m enough of a threat, it’s one of the many reasons I have been training a little extra for this. Basically for defense. Angel’s going to come at with full force and there’s nothing I can really do to prevent that. Having dealt with her outside the ring, where it was nothing but us talking. It was like a completely different person then, and it will be now.
But as I said, it hard not to look at this and see one of my best friends, hug buddies, and more in the ring, standing across from me and trying to do me harm. That’s just a surreal thing. But none the less, I will carry on the fight and win, despite my trepidation. I wish both Christine and Angel nothing but the best before we wrestle, when we wrestle, and after we wrestle. I just want to go into Minneapolis, wrestle Christine Nash, and get through it with another win under my belt. Though, there’s no real joy in that. I’m not about to stand here and tell you that beating Christine is, or was, a major goal of mine. It’s just a match with my hug buddy, that will be amazing to watch, and a pain to get through on both sides. I take nothing personal that can or will be said, or done. It’s just the intensity of the match and the heat of the moment. It’s all business once the bell rings, and that’s how it’s always been for me, and how it always will be.
I love Christine, Always and forever. I will see all of you in the ring in Minneapolis, and may the best woman win.
Roxi – Well… that was nice.
Keira – It was a pretty good workout.
Roxi – Pretty good? I thought it went well.
