The cold reign begins (Invite)

[bi]

As Glitter comes back from a break, the Carver Arena fans begin their immediate booing as the entrance theme of The Black Diamonds play over the PA. Into the arena comes Helena Troy, Michelle Marx and the newly crown Diamond Champion Bianca Dianaco. Helena and Michelle stand and applaud at the stage as Bianca holds the coveted title above her head with both hands.

Lucy: A lot of people where shocked when Tanden named Bianca the challenger at Vendetta. And even more people where plain old stunned when she was defeated by her.

Travis: It was a match to remember, that's for sure. The bad part of it is we have The Ice Queen as the Diamond Champion now. As if she wasn't unbarable enough without a title, now she has to most sought after championship in women's wrestling!

The trio of women all make their way to the ring, where mics awaited them all. It would be Bianca to start 1st.

And so, my loyal subjects...you all can rejoice. You queen...has arrived.

The fans let out a further chorus of boos.

Three years ago when I 1st arrived here in America...and XWA, I set out on a mission. And a month ago at Vendetta, that mission was completed. It should have been completed years in advance, but personal squabbles with some other Diamonds side tracked me from my goal. And that goal was to become Diamond Champion. And after long, long last...it's finally mines. So allow me to 1st and foremost thank the one person who without them, this moment would not be possible, Ms. Tanden Fearse. Who in her moment of foolish pride of being champion failed to realize one thing. That being I'm at my best when the stakes are at their highest. And for this, the grandest prize in all of Women's wrestling, there can be no higher a bet placed. And what more can I say but I cashed in, with interest.

Bianca looks to her cohorts and nods approvingly.

But it goes far deeper then that, people. By weeks end, The Black Diamonds will hold the most power and rank of ANY group of females in wrestling. Myself and Diamond Champion, Bull Nagano as Onyx Champion, and Ina & Bull going over to XCW, beating the bloody hell out of my favorite old crash test dummy Kim Hunter and her partner Sireena...bringing the Sapphire titles back where they belong. Such is the case when you have the most dominant assembly of women in the industry. It's not The Sensationals. It's not C.O.D., and it most certainly isn't Ladies 1st. It's us...The Black Diamonds, as it was meant to be. Speaking of Ladies 1st, don't you girls have something to say to our old friends?

Michelle takes up her mic to add.

As a matter of fact we do. Let's start with Chloe Lockheart. The little engine that could. Ashley Diamond's BFF. Or better known to the world as the Diamond Division's biggest let down. At least that Armstrong chick had the common decency to quit, which leaves that title to you Chloe. You've been a pain in my ass for a long, long time. And I think it's high time I did something about that pain personally. It's been a while since I've had the pleasure of tossin' you're scrawny ass around like a rag doll one on one. So how about you and I get reacquainted tonight, eh Chloe? It'll be just like the good ol' days, except this time you won't be walking out of the arena, they'll be carting you out on a stretcher.

She leaves things open for Helena to get her words in.

[hel]

With a shrill grin, Helena raises her mic and speaks.

Since you're going to have your fun with Chloe, I guess that means I get to spend some quality time again with my dear little sister. Ashley, the fact that I didn't even factor into the decision of the Boot Camp match doesn't upset nor bother me in the least. I see it as a formality. Your personal humiliation is worth far more to me then ANY title shot, or even a spot in the Diamond Conflict match. Make no mistakes, Mari's win came as result of the fact that my focus was making sure you...didn't. So in a way, Mari should be thanking me for her 2nd Boot Camp match win in a row. But enough talking about the 2nd rate Sensational. Tonight, you and I hammer out our differences the way us Troys do it best, in between the ropes. It's been a few months since we've last tangled one on one ourselves, and while I'll admit the 4 months you spent over in Japan training with Alundra has improved your skill, you're still worlds behind when it comes to matching mines. Let's not forget, it only took me and Michelle's combined efforts to be you, Chloe AND Alundra at Vendetta. We could have left Lakoda Rose backstage and made it a two on three match and still got the same results, a W.

Travis: As much as I hate saying this, she's right. In that 6 Diamond Elimination Tag match, Lakoda didn't even step in the ring. Helena and Michelle dominated in the match.

Lucy: Well, let's be fair Travis. Helena & Michelle have been an impressive duo since mid 2008. It was only Ashley and Alundra's 3rd ever time teaming up, and Chloe's 2nd match back in XWA. Give them a chance to build the chemistry Helena & Michelle have and let's see what happens then.

Just as that was said by the announce team, the three ladies in the ring were soon to be joined by their rivals.

[chloe]

~The entrance theme of Chloe Lockheart plays over the PA, and the fans give a standing ovation as she and Ashley Diamond hit the stage. Neither looked impressed by what the ladies in the ring had to say, but Chloe...mic in tow, had a little extra to say in the direction of Bianca 1st.~

I don't know what makes me sicker. Hearing you two birds crow at the yap about how you're going to kick our asses, or the idea of having Bianca as Diamond Champion. I think I'd rather stomach another Channelle reign then have you holding the title. Me and Ashley heard what you all had to say, and in case you were at all curious, we ain't impressed. Yea, you two gave us a working over at Vendetta. We'll give you that. But thinking that one loss is gonna be enough to break out stride? C'mon now, you two oughta know better then that. Especially you, Michelle. If I'm so much of a let down, tell me this. How come you've never put me away? How come you can't finish me off? Sounds to me like you're the failure. You fail to realize that no matter how big, bad and tough you are, I'll always be tougher. Because no matter how many times I get beat up, I get up, wipe the blood from my lips, put up my dukes and keep swingin'. And tonight Michelle, I'm swingin' for the fences.

~She lives things open for Ashley to get a word in.~

[ashley]

There really isn't much else that needs to be said...aside from the fact that you all are made for each other. A bunch of megalomaniacs who your success gives you the right to look down on everyone. The problem is when you look down, someone's bound to come and kick that pedestal out from underneath you. Case in point, what's going to happen later tonight. Helena, let's face the facts here. You're never going to "break me in." I might be your sister, but that's in blood alone. I am not nor will I EVER consider myself a Troy. My name is Ashley Diamond. That's who I am. That's who the world knows and respects me as. You can play your silly little games all you want, but "Sis"...I'm done playing around. The time has come for us to put an end to this game, and prove once and for all which one of us is the better wrestler. Tonight's just the beginning of it. And it ends at Soul Survivor. Bet you pretty "Black" asses on that one.

[tanden]

Just then, Chloe and Ashley are joined on the stage by the former Diamond Champion, Tanden Fearse.

Lucy: And here comes Tanden! You knew she'd have something to say about this.

As the fans cheer her on and mic in hand, Tanden responds to the previous words of Bianca.

Well, I guess in response to you thanking me for giving you the shot in the 1st place I can only say "you're welcome." But I'd save my celebrating and pandering for a later date if I were you. MMA great and UFC Hall Of Famer Matt Hughes coined a very true phrase a few years ago. And that phrase is "You're not a true champion until you defend you championship." Because winning a title is the easy part. Keeping it is what separates the good from the great. But don't worry, Bianca. You'll get your chance to defend your newly won title at Soul Survivor. And it'll be against me, because right here, right now, I'm exacting my championship rematch.

The fans cheer in approval as the announce team weighs in.

Travis: That comes as no surprise. She was only a move or two away from retaining. You've gotta imagine that with a whole month to prepare, she's going to be more then ready to win the Diamond Tile back from Bianca.

Lucy: True, but let's not count Bianca out either. She's not considered one of the most ruthless women in wrestling for her looks.

But let's talk about what we're going to do tonight, Bianca. Since Michella & Helena decided to come out here issuing challenges, how about I issue one of my own. And that challenge is directed straight to you. The way I see things, the Diamond champion needs to be ready to get it on at the drop of a dime. And I'm dropping the dime right here.

Tanden lowers her mic in wait of Bianca's response.
