I guess this is a welcome for me. I never would have thought that I would make it this far in any type of promotion, let alone almost losing it all last year. I find it kind of funny that considering everything that has happened to me, my conference general manager still puts me lower than everyone else where I should’ve been drafted a bit high, but that’s OK.
They say in the past that you have to prove them wrong and that you need to go out there and show what you are capable of doing. Even if it’s a tag match, I plan on being the star of this match and showing NPWA what I am capable of doing. I know one of my opponents and how she works out while the other two? They will be introduced to me when we face off in the ring. I hope my tag team partners understand how I want to win this match….
They just need to understand how badly I want to win it at all costs.

Location: Manhattan, New York - 5BW Facility.
The scene starts with Tori Colbert training in the ring with her aunt Kelly Penkzee-Nelson and her preparing for this match up. KPN’s not taking it easy on her as that’s the way she wants it to go. Tori hits her hard as KPN exchanges her back. Knowing that they both have important matches coming up in the next few days, Tori wants to be prepared at all costs. They stop and bow to each other and walk over to talk about what went down.
Kelly Penkzee-Nelson: Well, do you feel like you’re prepared for this six-person tag team match? I know that you have a lot of matches in the next few days and I want to make sure that you are OK. It seems like you’re taking this grind pretty well.
Tori smirks and sips the drink that she has. You can tell she’s been working hard for this.
Tori Colbert: Yeah, I am ready for this. I know I have big matches coming up in the next couple of days. This six person tag team match in Minneapolis and the Six Person tag team match in New York City in the hell in a cell.
KPN smiles at this.
Kelly Penkzee-Nelson: I’m very glad to hear that you are ready, but considering who you will be going against, and teaming up again, I’m sure that this place needs to be watching you.
Tori’s thoughts You think? I was drafted towards the end and I have the biggest chip on my shoulder. If I was near the last pick, then this place needs to be watching me. I’m sure that this happened to you a couple of years ago when you were in Girl Power Wrestling and people walked over you because you didn’t fit their mold.
[/color][/font][/span][/div]Tori looks at her aunt and shakes her head. She wants to say something about what she said and she wants to mention how this is bothering her. Tori sighs, takes another sip and looks at her.
Tori Colbert: Kelly, I have to admit something to you…
She leans in and is prepared for what is about to come out of her mouth.
Kelly Penkzee-Nelson: Go on, I am all ears.
Tori takes a deep breath and looks at her. It seems like she does not want to piss her aunt off when it comes to what she’s about to say.
Kelly Penkzee-Nelson: Tori, just spit it out.
Finally she does.
Tori Colbert: When you came to Girl Power Wrestling back in 2014, you had the biggest chip on your shoulder because you wanted everyone to have their eyes on you. You wanted the world handed to you because you came from the independent scene, however, you did not fit their mold because they wanted something different.
Tori keeps her eyes on her aunt.
Tori Colbert: I feel the same way as well. They would rather have the ones that are not popular, be the last ones drafted and have the ones, who cause controversy, be the ones that are on top. I don’t get it, but I feel like that.
Tori keeps her eyes on her aunt. She’s about to say something, but Kelly cuts her off right there.
Kelly Penkzee-Nelson: I understand what you’re saying, but the differences in that place compared to here is you had to look the part and you had to be buddies with everyone else. Remember what I said back at Festivus in Florida?
Tori nods.
Kelly Penkzee-Nelson: It’s totally different from what you’re about to experience. You know what you need to do? You need to go out there in this tag match and show your league manager why it was a mistake to draft you last. Why it was a mistake to not do their research on you. Since then, you’ve accomplished a lot.
Kelly has a serious look on her face.
Kelly Penkzee-Nelson: This is your moment, Tori. This is your story. If this is the Story of Tori, then it needs to be the Story of Tori. We passed the whole PN Dynasty stuff. This is an offshoot and you don’t need to leech off this any longer. This is your time!
Tori’s thoughts She’s right you know? A lot of my critics have told me that I was nothing, but a leech off my own aunts and that I wasn’t creating my own story. As time has changed, so have I. I am not the same wrestler I was when I first started this back in 2020. I don’t need to be labeled to KPN as she’s cemented herself as one of the greats out here
Tori Colbert: You’re right about that.
Tori gets her stuff and leaves the gym. Going into this match, she needs to be prepared for what is about to go down for her. Tori’s ready for this match.

Place: Manhattan, New York.
The scene starts with Tori Colbert sitting down and looking at a few things in her apartment. She looks at the championships she’s won thus far and begins speaking.
Tori Colbert: As I look at these championships, I realize that I am grateful for my career that’s been going the right way lately. I’m glad that these championships remind me how far I’ve come. However, when it comes to NPWA and having my first match with them, I need to show them what I am capable of doing and this match is the one way to start it off considering that this is a tag team match.
Tori turns around.
Tori Colbert: First off, let me introduce myself to my tag team partners, Roxi Johnson and Ace Sky. I’ve heard about you guys and I have to say while I am impressed with one of you, I am not impressed with the other one. I want you to figure out who I’m impressed with and who I am not impressed with. This is not going to be a game of cat and mice because knowing you both, I’m sure that you’re not going to spend all goddamn day with this. However, let it be known.
She takes a deep breath.
Tori Colbert: I may not trust you at first, especially in the beginning. After everything that has happened to me where I had tag team partners where I thought I could trust before they ended up turning their backs on me, I’ve had trust issues since. It’s going to take a while to earn my trust and you need to show ME why I should trust you both. This match should be a test of that. That’s all I have to say about that. However, let’s take a look at our opponents this one, one of them I’m very familiar with because we’re both in the same company.
Tori has a smirk on her face.
Tori Colbert: Starting off with you, Krystal Wolfe. There’s something I want to say to you that really pissed me the fuck off. You mention that you drew a blank when my name came because you didn’t know who I was? First off, what kind of disrespect is that stuff? Is that your motto when it comes to people that you don’t know of? Hell, do you even mingle and see there are other people out there?
She shakes her head at that statement, knowing that she’s pissed off about what was said about her. Tori refocuses and goes back speaking.
Tori Colbert: Here’s an introduction from me to you and I hope this gets through your head. My name is Tori Colbert, 5BW and GCW Fighter, Two Time Electric Tag Team Champion, CURRENT GCW Heritage Champion, graduate of Softball Night Academy, Runner up in the Civil War for GCW and most importantly….
She doesn’t lose focus.
Tori Colbert: The one that will knock some sense into you and MAKE SURE you remember who I am!
Tori shakes her head as she goes to the next person.
Tori Colbert: Now onto Sierra Williams, my divisional competitor, who’s also going to be in this match up as well. I find it kind of funny that you and I are in this tag match, but on separate teams. I thought that if this was a divisional match up, we would be on the same team.
She pauses right there.
Tori Colbert: Though I beg to differ. There’s no teams in this match with the same conference. However, if we are talking about bragging rights and who’s going to get the lead for their division and be the talk of the town, I will tell you this right now, it’s NOT going to be you! I don’t care if my teammates, who are in a different league, are going to get points for their side because what matters to me is this.
She thinks about what she’s going to say
Tori Colbert: Making sure that you don’t get one up! Not going to happen. Nope. Nope. NOPE!!
She shakes her head and goes to the final person she’s about to speak of.
Tori Colbert: Finally, Cordelia Clark. My co-worker over at Five Boroughs Wrestling. You see, unlike Krystal Wolfe, you know me, I know you and when it comes to being pushed to the side, I understand. There’s a reason why you and I are alike when it comes to the ones that are putting us down and treating us like we are dirt. However, when it comes to attitudes?
She keeps her eyes focused.
Tori Colbert: I am the one that doesn’t have a bad attitude and has to remain positive the whole entire time, but sometimes, being a positive person does not get you far. Trust me, I’ve seen over the past year in 5BW what you’ve gone through and I’ve seen what that other company has done to you, which I feel is bullshit. Though, I think we should let the NPWA people know that in the past, we did face off and you were the winner of that match.
Tori remains still.
Tori Colbert: However this time around, lightning’s not going to strike twice in this place. I know my mistake from facing off against you the first time around and learning from there, unlike a certain rival in the place we both work in and I’m sure you know who I am talking about!
Tori smirks at this.
Tori Colbert: June 30th, NPWA going to know who I am and the story I am going to give you, and just let it be known…..
She sits down.
Tori Colbert: This is my chapter.
Tori smirks as the scene ends.
