On a bright and bustling afternoon in Charlotte, North Carolina, an inviting outdoor patio serves as the setting for a warm moment shared between two business partners. The atmosphere is alive with the gentle hum of a city walkway, framed by classic red brick buildings that stretch into the background. Nestled in this lively pedestrian corridor is an outdoor dining space belonging to an establishment, a small quaint cafe. Above the patrons, large cream colored umbrellas are unfurled to cast a soft and pleasant shade over the wooden tables. The stone paved ground adds a timeless charm to the alley, where a few casual passersby stroll in the distance, capturing the quintessential essence of a relaxed weekend day spent in the heart of the city. Seated on the right side of the small round wooden table is Aurora Alan, who radiates a sense of effortless elegance. Aurora has long, wavy hair with subtle golden highlights that falls softly over her shoulders and catches the natural light. Aurora is wearing a lovely midi dress crafted from a light, flowing fabric adorned with a delicate floral pattern featuring shades of blue, lavender, and soft pink against a pale cream background. Over the dress, Aurora has layered a cozy, fine knit cardigan in an off white hue, which she wears partially buttoned to provide a comfortable layer against the afternoon breeze. A couple of thin, elegant gold necklaces rest gracefully against her collarbone, adding a touch of sophisticated detail to her casual ensemble. On her feet, she wears stylish brown leather ankle boots with a modest block heel, completing a look that perfectly balances comfort with a chic, feminine aesthetic. She gently holds a white ceramic coffee cup in her hand, pausing mid sip to enjoy the conversation.

Sitting across from her is “The British Bombshell” Glory Braddock, whose style leans toward a more relaxed, utilitarian fashion that still possesses a distinct modern edge. Glory possesses long, bright blonde hair that falls loosely around her face in natural, textured waves. She is dressed in a structured, dark navy blue denim jacket which is worn open over a classic, plain white cotton tee shirt. Her choice of trousers consists of relaxed fit olive green cargo pants, complete with the characteristic large utility pockets stitched on the sides, conveying a sense of practical comfort. On her feet, Glory wears a pair of light gray high top sneakers with white laces, showing a bit of intentional weathering that contributes to her casual, streetwear inspired look. Between Aurora and Glory sits a small, circular wooden bistro table that holds the remnants of their cafe order. A small white plate rests in the center, holding a pastry alongside a few stray crumbs, suggesting they have been sitting and chatting for some time. Two clear glasses filled with water stand near the edge of the table, alongside a smartphone lying flat on the wooden surface. The table is anchored by a dark metal base, positioned directly in front of a rectangular wooden planter filled with lush green foliage and small red blossoms. To their left, a very large terracotta pot overflows with a vibrant green bush dotted with delicate pink flowers, adding a brilliant splash of natural color to the brick and stone surroundings.

“I have to admit, I am surprised that you wanted to meet me.” Aurora says as she sips her coffee. “After all, you DO hate this state I grew up in, and you hate Charlotte in particular.”

“Right, well, things change and people change.” Glory remarks.

“You tried to move the corporate headquarters to Miami.” Aurora points out. “My people put a stop to it. The same people you forced out.” Aurora chuckles. “Which is another reason I’m surprised that you wanted to meet me here. You just got finished wiping out some of the longest serving members of the board of directors of a company my family built.”

“Yes, I am aware of that situation.” Glory nods her head. “Richard, Amber, and Reid. I swear, Aurora, I had nothing to do with that. I had no idea…”

“Save it, Glory.” Aurora snaps, quickly interrupting her. “Face it, my older brother never liked you. He made life a living hell for you simply because you purchased this company from him and then named it after yourself; Glorious Global Enterprises.” She rolls her eyes.

“Matthew was bankrupting the company.” Glory points out sharply. “His shady business dealings with organized crime didn’t help matters. I saved this company by purchasing it and rebranding it. I saved people’s jobs. I kept HIS dream alive. He should be grateful.”

“I know and I understand. Matt was no saint. And you’re right, without you swooping in at the last moment, his company would have died out. But don’t pretend you are innocent here. Do not pretend you are the hero and my brother is the villain. Richard, Amber, and Reid were forced out simply for being loyal to my family and you claim you had nothing to do with it. Forgive me for my skepticism, Glory, but this wouldn’t be the first time you attempted to purge the board of directors of my family’s influence.”

This conversation is going downhill in a hurry. The British Bombshell arranged this meeting with Aurora Alan, a minority shareholder in her company, because Melody had insisted that she do so after the recent purging of Alan Family influences from the board of directors, a purge that may have been perpetrated by Catalina De Luca, the Chief of Staff Glory Braddock hired to insulate her from all corporate dealings. Cat, having been given authority to act in Glory’s name, is now making Glory look like a tyrant. This leaves The British Bombshell to clean up the mess.

“Yes, yes, I remember, and it wasn’t exactly the proudest moment of my life. I was in a dark place then, Aurora. I was not myself. I am ashamed of what I did then and if I could fixed it, I would. But understand, mate, that I would never do it again. Trust me, this wasn’t me.”

“Then who?” Aurora asks. “Aphrodite? Your old ‘friend’ who you sold a minority share of the company to so you could, again, keep my family’s influence in check? Or was it the De Luca girl? You know, the one with ties to organized crime?”

Glory Braddock is stunned to silence. She had no idea Aurora would know about Catalina’s past. Aurora chuckles and nods her head.

“I may not be involved in organized crime but my brother was and therefore I know all about Catalina De Luca’s ties.”

“I hired her to keep me insulated from the corporate dealings, from the politics of it all.” Glory insists. “You’re right, I did terrible things, I attempted to purge the company of your family’s influence, I tried to get people fired, but that was in the past and the constant nonstop micro-managing of the business made me that way. So I hired Cat so that she could do that for me, so that I could stay away from that corruption, but I never EVER meant for her to force Richard, Amber, and Reid out.”

“Whether you meant for it to happen or not, the fact is that it happened. They’re out. And they’re not the only ones, Glory.”

“Who else is out?” Glory asks.

“Me.” Aurora states plainly. “I’m going to sell you my minority stake.”

“Aurora, please,” Glory shakes her head “that’s not what I want.”

“It doesn’t feel safe anymore.” Aurora remarks. “Your pal Cat, whether acting on your orders or acting on her own, is making Alan Family members and their friends feel unwelcome and unwanted.”

“Rubbish.” Glory shakes her head. “I may not like your brother but I respect what he and your family have done. You built this company, you founded this company, and I want you to reconsider leaving. I need you here because you represent the company’s foundations.”

“See, that’s the thing,” Aurora points out, shaking her head “do you want me here to help or do you just want me here as a figurehead? A symbol of the Alan Family? I’m not dumb, Glory. The Alan Family has been slowly but surely forced out. I’m one of the few remaining remnants left. And your friend isn’t making me feel welcome.”

Aurora Alana stands up, preparing to leave. But Glory Braddock gently grabs her by the wrist.

“Wait…” she sighs “...don’t make any rash decisions, mate. Don’t. Just think about it, ok? I want you on board. Let me try and fix this.”

“I’m still not sure I even believe you when you sit there and imply your friend Cat was acting on her own and not under your specific orders.” Aurora sighs and shrugs her shoulders. “Fine. But I make no promises.”

The afternoon sun beating down on the patio had lost its warmth, replaced by a cold, heavy tension that lingered over the remnants of their cafe order. Glory sat perfectly still, her hand slowly retreating from Aurora’s wrist as the minority co-owner turned and vanished into the bustling pedestrian corridor. The lively hum of the Charlotte walkway continued unabated, completely indifferent to the fact that the final foundation of the Alan family legacy within Glorious Global Enterprises was officially cracking.

Glory stared blankly at the empty chair across from her, the realization of what Catalina De Luca had actually done finally crashing over her like an avalanche. In her desperate bid to protect her own soul and reclaim her passion for the wrestling ring, she had given Cat the keys to the kingdom. But Catalina hadn't just insulated Glory from the corporate vipers; she had used Glory's absolute authority to carry out a ruthless, old-school purge. By strong-arming Richard, Amber, and Reid out of the company, Cat had inadvertently proven every single one of Aurora’s worst fears right. To the remaining old guard, Glory didn't look like a hands-off wrestler trying to find peace; she looked like a calculated tyrant wiping out the competition through a proxy. What happened next would entirely reshape the corporate and athletic future of The British Bombshell. Aurora’s threat to sell her minority stake wasn't just a quiet exit; it was a devastating PR disaster in the making. If the sister of the company’s founder walked away citing safety concerns and targeted hostility from an ex-mafia chief of staff, the fallout would completely dismantle Glory's credibility. The olive branch Glory had fought so hard to extend was entirely incinerated, leaving her exposed to potential legal warfare, board member revolts, and severe administrative chaos just as her wrestling career was hitting its stride.

Going forward, Glory Braddock can no longer afford to hide behind the curtain or pretend she is just a competitor. The immediate future demands an unyielding, aggressive confrontation with Catalina De Luca. Glory must find out exactly how Cat forced the board members out and put an immediate halt to her scorched-earth tactics before Aurora’s shares are permanently liquidated. Worse still, the impending corporate warfare threatens to bleed directly into the locker room. With a massive match against the Underground Champion Asher Hayes next week, and La Pequina Luz waiting in the wings, Glory’s focus is dangerously divided. Aurora Alan gave her a temporary, fragile reprieve to "fix this," but there are no promises. To survive the looming storm, Glory is about to find out that trying to keep control of her soul while managing a multi-million dollar empire might just be the hardest fight of her life.

The camera begins to roll. We are outside in the streets of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, the city that will play host to SCW Breakdown tomorrow night. And here before us is none other than “The British Bombshell” Glory Braddock. She is wearing a stylish, edgy outfit featuring a black leather biker jacket with prominent silver zippers, a textured black shearling or faux-fur collar, and ribbed detailing along the upper sleeves. Underneath the jacket, she wears a black cropped top that reveals her midriff, accessorized with a long, delicate gold necklace that hangs down across her chest. Braddock’s outfit is paired with high-waisted, form-fitting blue skinny jeans in a classic medium wash. On her feet, she wears pointed-toe black suede ankle boots with a low wedge heel and a wrap-around strap detail at the ankle.

“Here we go again! We are on the road to Rise To Greatness, the most exciting time of the year for Supreme Championship Wrestling, and while oh so many people are demanding this, acting like entitled brats, you have me, The British Bombshell, once again doing what I do best. I just wrestle. I go out to the ring each and every time my name is called and I give it my all for the great fans of SCW, for professional wrestling, for the spirit of competition, and most importantly, to EARN my opportunities.” Braddock smirks knowingly. “You will never once see me kissing some authority figure’s ass in order to get an opportunity. You will never see The British Bombshell groveling or doing favors for someone in power just to get a shot at a championship. I was born and raised in this business and it was drilled into my brain from the very first day of my training that you EARN your keep, you EARN your opportunities, and that is what I have done every single step of the way in my long and successful tenure in SCW.”

“Trios Tournament 2019 Winner…EARNED IT.”

“Trios Tournament 2020 Winner…EARNED IT.”

“SCW Adrenaline Champion, two times…EARNED IT.”

“SCW United States Champion…EARNED IT.”

“SCW Television Champion…EARNED IT.”

“SCW Underground Champion…EARNED IT.”

“SCW World Tag Team Champion…EARNED IT.”

“SCW World Champion…EARNED IT.”

“All of SCW’s great brass rings, minus Taking Hold of the Flame, I have won them and I have earned them all through hard work, through determination, and my God given skill and ability. I never needed to take a shortcut. I earned it all because I am one of the very best wrestlers alive today. And last year, when I bypassed Taking Hold of the Flame, I did so because I knew I could EARN a shot at the SCW World Title by going through anyone and everyone placed before me. I did it. I earned my shot. Now I admit, I came up short against the cinderella story that is Cid Turner. But that just means I have to fight back even harder, I have to earn another shot. So I here we are one year later, once again I skipped The Flame so I could earn a title opportunity.” Glory winks.

“Amelia Nevado, the reigning SCW World Champion. You are talented, I’ll give you that, mate, but you are thick because for some reason you think I don’t respect you. I respect you and I am glad you finally became champion. But know this, you have never beaten me one on one. Obviously your first concern are the Frosts, but if you make it past them, then your concern is me. Because I became Supreme Champion by defeating you twice and I will become SCW World Champion by defeating you. But first I have to earn it and I’m not going to shove my head up some CEO’s ass in order to earn it. I am going to earn it by defeating your partner Luz. Let’s see if she can do what you so far have been unable to do…I doubt it…” she shakes her head.

“But I am not going to get ahead of myself. First thing’s first and that’s Asher Hayes.” She waves at the camera. “Asher! Mate! Long time no see?! That was quite an impassioned speech you gave on Breakdown. I get it, too, but you don’t have to worry about me. If there is anyone in this company who respects what you are capable of, it’s me. We have had our fair share of battles inside the squared circle. We’re both former World Champions. And we both EARNED our way. We both EARNED everything we have accomplished in SCW. We may have very different personalities, lifestyle choices, and skillsets, but at the end of the day you and I are not that much different. You and I are the same. We are professional wrestlers and we thrive upon competition and we want the respect that we have earned.” She points a finger at the camera.

“But you…you are the current Underground Champion. Now the Underground isn’t exactly my cup of tea, and this isn’t an Underground Match, but the fact is that you ARE a champion and defeating any champion means something. It says a lot when you can obtain a victory over someone who holds gold in this highly competitive promotion and to do so on the road to Rise To Greatness makes it all that much sweeter.”

“Now your road to Rise To Greatness is fairly obvious; you have David Striker and Kimberly Williams hot on your heels, both wanting that championship. Me? I’m just going with the flow. I am taking on anyone and everyone the CEO, this company, decides to throw at me. I am taking on all comers with the intent of earning my next opportunity to challenge for a championship, because it has been far too long since gold has been around the waist of The British Bombshell. Defeating you, Asher, will go a long way in making my case. So get ready to renew our long, storied rivalry. Get ready to give me your best shot because you can believe that I will give you my best shot.” Braddock nods her head.

“And may the best person win. Sic Semper Tyrannis.”
