Match 2

Christmas Present Match

for the

AWS Temptress Championship

Jessica Fyre vs. Victoria Scott vs. Denise De’vil vs. Addison Hepburn

Addison Hepburn was a simple woman when it came to the things that she wanted. Madonna said it best in her peak and prime. Addison was a material girl. Of course she placed a lot of value in clothes, cars, jewelry, and other personal status symbols of wealth. But given her line of work as a professional wrestler and actress she valued other things as well. Like awards for her acting work and championships for her wrestling work. Things that she could show off not just for her net worth but for her overall success that she took pure pride in. Tangible stuff.

People knew by now that Addison was a dual-threat entertainer. An actress and wrestler. When she didn’t have any wrestling matches she had acting gigs and she put in maximum effort on both. On top of that she didn’t care about what work she got either. As an actress with no agent Addison didn’t care if she acted in a thirty second commercial or two hour movie as long as she had a proper role. This went with her wrestling career as she didn’t matter who she wrestled against or the amount of people she wrestled against as long as she was on TV. It was all about the attention for her and logically so. The awards and accolades were a fun bonus.

However there was a big caveat in this context. Unlike on the movie/show/commercial set where she HAD to share the spotlight with multiple people which she was totally fine with, the same treatment in wrestling made her uneasy having to fight more than one opponent. Which got her dislike immediately once she found out she had a match for them. 

The brunette entertainer was happy to finally get a shot at the AWS Temptress Title and all she had to do was defeat three other women to get it. Jessica Fyre, April Dimter, and Denise De’vil. Three women is too many for her liking and it weighed on her mind more than any match so far. Multiple women, the odds were unlikely she’d win. But the odds weren’t much different than the same odds of her winning an award against other nominees.

The only difference is she was in control of whether or not she won and Addison could handle that. She was aware of her odds but it didn’t scare her. In fact, it led to her training harder, smarter, and outright brainstorming ideas for a promo as if she was developing a movie character.

Which led us to this very day before Reindeer Games where Addison was wearing a long, beautiful, designer dress in an award show audience. On screen it looked like Addison was nominated for an award and this was an award show. But the font, colors, and designs matched that of the Asylum Wrestling Society.

Laura Anderson: “Your winner of the AWS Temptress Championship is…ADDISON HEPBURN!”

And not only did Addison step up to get the title on stage but people got to see Jessica Fyre, April Dimter, and Denise De’vil look disappointed and outright angry in defeat watching Addison receive the Temptress Title belt. But then the scene paused with Addison's voice being overheard.

Addison Hepburn: I wish it was this easy…

Then the screen did a fast wipe to Addison in a director's chair cross-legged. Facing the camera that was waiting and ready to capture her every word

Addison Hepburn: I mean if they gave championships on just pure talent or looks alone I’d be the Temptress Champion already. Especially since I’m with no-talent trolls like April Dimter, Denise De’vil, and Jessica Fyre in a match at Reindeer Games in a Christmas Present Match. Ugh…The work of a true star is soooooo difficult…I guess I have to beat the hell out of my so-called opponents to earn something that’s really mine if you think about it. I mean I’m the sexiest woman in the match by far. I’m the best wrestler in the match too. I’m definitely the biggest star. I mean while I’m talking to all of you. You’re welcome by the way. I’m going to be shooting a movie that’s going to put a lot of money in my bank account. That alone means I’ll bring value to the Temptress Title after Reindeer Games. Because I a true star~

There were a lot of lady lunatics in the Asylum Wrestling Society that had huge egos but Addison Hepburn’s was quite possibly the largest. As she believed that she was the rightful AWS Temptress Champion based on her beauty, talent, and star status.

Addison Hepburn: I mean I look at the field. Jessica Fyre you’re a rising star. This is your big break, your first big moment! I was in your shoes as a wrestler once. And I excelled! It’s sad you won’t because you will be in the ring with me in your first big time, star-studded match. During MY time to shine. Now Denise De’vil. You are the only woman in this match that has me…unsettled. Because you’ve won titles before, been in bigger matches before, you’re creepy as can be. But there’s nothing about you that screams “Temptress.” You don’t have the beauty of one. You’re an ugly she-demon of a woman who would scare fans instead of selling merchandise to them. I’m a better fit for the Temptress title just for that alone. Oh and I almost forgot you April Dimter. Just like everyone else did just because you popped up out of the blue. At least Jessica and Denise have credibility along with myself. You’re only in this match because your husband pulled strings for you. That’s it. The Temptress Championship is as good as mine!

Addison went after her three opponents with various levels of venom and fervor. Whether it was with respect and acknowledgment of talent while still making sure she made it quite clear that she was going to win. Or flaming disrespect and arrogance while making it clear that the title was coming home with her. Either way Addison wanted to make it clear that she was going to win the Temptress Title at Reindeer Games. Footage of her three opponents playing while she spoke proved Addison’s point. The scrappiness of Jessica, the scariness of Denise, and footage of April standing with Mike.

Addison Hepburn: Sorry. I get a little…heated at the thought of facing wrestlers that are below my league but I have an outlet for my anger. The Christmas Gift match. So many nice Christmas-themed weapons for me to use on my way to victory. 

“Addison you’re needed on set!”

Addison Hepburn: Coming! That’s my cue. This is your future AWS Temptress Champion signing out. End scene!

Sky Scott:Hey Boss man… I came to help you out with a problem that you have at reindeer games

Gabriel raised a brow, his expression intrigued.

Gabriel Knight: And what problem might that be?

Sky Scott:Oh the fact that April Dimter has retired from wrestling and that leaves a slot open for the fatal four way die the temptress championship

Sky Scott and the masked female sit down

Sky Scott:Don’t worry April and I made a phone call to get you a fourth participant

Gabriel maintained that intrigued expression.

Gabriel Knight: "And I suppose that has something to do with your mask clad friend over there?"

Sky Scott:yes it does.

The masked female stood up then she took off her mask to reveal her identity as “The Bombshell” Victoria Scott

Sky Scott:this is my sister Victoria

“The Bombshell” Victoria Scott:Sky.. thanks for the call

“The Bombshell” Victoria Scott sat down as she looked at Gabriel Knight

Gabriel simply nodded, his eyes narrowed.

Gabriel Knight:Mrs Scott, I assume you've some idea of what you are asking for. To compete yes?

“The Bombshell” Victoria Scott:It’s Miss… I’m not married and yes I know what I’m asking for … I’m asking you to allow me to replace my friend

Gabriel nodded.

Gabriel Knight:Miss Scott. Very well replace your friend. Good luck in your match. I believe that concludes our business
