Alexis: Oh wow! New content! And a match! Finally! And guess who it’s against! Let’s see what everyone’s been saying…
She watches the interactions between Michelle and Sean and Sarah and the mention of Butch and his coaching team making their way back to the training academy to “deal with her”. After she’s finished watching, she goes to her phone’s recording tab on her camera and turns it selfie mode so her face is in full view.
Alexis: Hey everyone, it’s your girl, Lexi! I’m just checking in again! First of all, thank you to all my new followers! You guys are awesome and I appreciate all your support! Secondly, I want to address the elephant in the room since someone decided to be a big ‘ol taddle-tale and tell the boss about what happened earlier.
Alexis rolls her eyes before she continues.
Alexis: I’m guessing this is your first time having a proper training session? Newsflash ladies, this isn’t WWE! We’re not holding hands and having pillow fights in our bra and panties. We’re professional frickin’ wrestlers! If we don’t push each other’s boundaries, how are we going to get better? Sarah, you’re a Jiu-Jitsu girl, right? How many times you had an opponent refuse to let go a hold because they wanted to test you? We’re in the business of hurting each other! You guys might’ve all trained together and have this little clique-like mentality and that’s all fine but like I said before, I’m not here to make new BFFs, I’m here for one reason and one reason only - to prove I’m the best woman on this planet inside the ring!
Alexis can feel herself getting frustrated and she gestures to the camera with her free hand.
Alexis: You know, I was led to believe this company had the most promising women’s division in the world! You think this was my first and only offer? I turned down AEW and Stardom for this gig! I could’ve been wrestling Britt Baker or Guila right now and l I’m stuck with a couple of rookies who can’t even fight their way out of a basic chokehold and run crying to management instead of handling their issues like grown-ass adults. I don’t know what sort of training academy is being run here but it sure as hell could do with a hard dose of reality-check! I mean look what happened at Havoc last week! That crazy guy Maniac beat up one of your own, that Matt guy, to the point his skull was showing and do you hear him complaining? No! He’s studying up on how to beat him next time they face off and he’s even considering facing him in some insane Asylum match for Pete’s sake! This is why woman wrestler’s get such a bad rep! No chick has the guts to stand up for themselves and grab the brass ring!
Now you might think I’m a bitch, that I’m marking my territory or that I’m cold-hearted and I can deal with that, but there’s one thing I’m not and it’s fake! Just because I’m blonde doesn’t mean I’m a bimbo and just because I take pride in my appearance doesn’t make me conceited either. And one thing’s for sure - I don’t need management to solve problems because I am the problem solver. I’m a legit athlete and I’m proud of my ring skills and I will not dumb myself down for your newb asses. I’m not here to babysit you in the ring either, where I’m from, if you get thrown in the water without a lifesaver, you learn to swim or you drown.
So Michelle, I’m talking directly to you now, honey. I’m sorry if I upset you earlier, my intention was to help you to teach you. Not every opponent is going to be kind and gracious, this isn’t Ring of Honor, there’s no code of honor to adhere to. Listen to Sarah and stop being so naive. You and I are gonna meet again in more close quarters at Havoc and I promise you I will neither be lenient nor will I be forgiving. So do me a favor and keep me out of your goddamn prayers and ask your good Lord to protect you from what I’m bringing to Chicago. And that’s not a threat, Michelle, that’s a frickin’ promise.
Alexis affords herself a small before continuing.
Alexis: But if you’re seriously interested in becoming a genuine name in this business, learn from what I’m going to do to you at Havoc, Michelle. Spend a little less time worrying about whether Sean is going to want to touch your hand again. Don’t go crying to Sarah, or your hot Scot boyfriend or his aunt and uncle. Drop the naive innocent little religious girl act because if you keep going the way you are, this business is gonna chew your ass out. You may think I’m being a Regina George here but I’m saying this for your own benefit, Michelle because I won’t rest up. You’re the first in a line of women and men who are nothing more than notches on a bedpost. You, Sarah, Erica, even the guys! Draconis, your pretty boy boyfriend and his pals. You’re all on notice! And Butch, Wisdom, if you seriously have an issue with what happened today, if I’m going to be punished for training the same way I’ve done my whole career, the way I was trained then maybe this isn’t the company I thought it was. Wisdom, you came into this company and you took no shit! You were, you are a forced to be reckoned with! But when you came in, people shunned you, and why? Because you were different to everyone else! You weren’t like Blush, like Callisto, Raven or ICE! You embraced your individuality and went after what and who you wanted! You became the most dominant female competitor in HWA history, you’re the only woman to hold both a men’s and a women’s championship belt! You married one of the greatest professional wrestlers our business has ever seen as well as one of the most handsome - kudos by the way - because you weren’t afraid to break the mould and be different. And Butch, you came into this company the same way I did! You appeared during a rival’s match and then broke an opponent’s leg in your debut match! Did you get in trouble for that or were you commended for having a take-no-crap attitude? Hmm?
So I ask you both… what is so different to what I’ve done in the nine days I’ve been here? If you want to punish me, punish me but if you do? Well…maybe I made the wrong decision when I signed my contract.
There is certain steeliness to Alexis’ delivery compared to how she was in her last video. Her eyes have a fire in them as she gives one last look at the camera before hitting “send” as the scene fades to black.
