INT. ARENA - BACKSTAGE - BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, JUNE 24TH
Coming back from the curtain is Trixie who is dressed in her ring gear. A top that cut off to show her stomach and a glimpse at a set of toned abs with a small little window to show she does have some goods. Her trunks match her top in the same shade of Flamingo Pink, a colour choice to always represent the Flamingo Casino. Her knee high boots have just a slight heel to them to push Trixie's height nearly to 5'7".
Coming over, with a very freshly made name badge hot off the printer, a clipboard and a lanyard with a staff badge hanging from his neck is a male, who just has a few inches over on Trixie. He wears a white dress shirt and a pair of black trousers on and some smart shoes. The name badge reads "Brad Archer"
Brad:
"Second victory of the night, well done mate."
"Second victory of the night, well done mate."
TRIXIE:
"Thanks, Brad. Pinned Karloff tonight really good. I didn't think she'd get up after the fourth superkick in a row."
"Thanks, Brad. Pinned Karloff tonight really good. I didn't think she'd get up after the fourth superkick in a row."
Brad:
"Back of the head as well."
"Back of the head as well."
BEAT
Brad:
(Slightly higher pitched)
"Remind me not to piss you off or anything like that."
(Slightly higher pitched)
"Remind me not to piss you off or anything like that."
TRIXIE:
"I don't take it easy on friends, Brad. Code 12: A true friend shakes your hand after the match, No Matter What."
"I don't take it easy on friends, Brad. Code 12: A true friend shakes your hand after the match, No Matter What."
Brad's eyes widen with an assumption made on his part.
Brad:
"I'm not stepping in that ring, no way you'd ever convince me to step between those ropes."
"I'm not stepping in that ring, no way you'd ever convince me to step between those ropes."
Trixie shrugs, giving Brad a semi-unimpressed look while her cheeks smirking with resounding confidence.
TRIXIE:
"Funny, I never had that reaction. Ever."
"Funny, I never had that reaction. Ever."
Brad stays silent for a bit as he takes in the fact his friend Trixie from school never showed any fear from the ring. He then clocks on he was supposed to tell Trixie something as a staff member backstage for the evening.
Brad:
"Oh, by the way, what's her name..."
"Oh, by the way, what's her name..."
Brad clicks his fingers loudly, lips squeezing his tongue as he's in thought. Trixie shifts hr weight onto her other foot, being friendly but the quick tucking of hair behind her ear was subtly saying she didn't have the patience.
Brad:
"Ainslee wanted to have a little meeting with you, she's in her office right-"
"Ainslee wanted to have a little meeting with you, she's in her office right-"
TRIXIE:
"Nope."
"Nope."
Trixie interrupts and turns to go on her own way as Brad catches the scent of her hair as it twirls to nearly catch him in his face. Trixie walks down the hall to see the results being written on the board. From the first show and the current show so far as Trixie sees Caroline and Maverick's loss to Yujiro. Her win to RC Tucker.
TRIXIE:
"Caroline got the win too? Hmmm, good for her, though she did lose to Yujiro in a triple threat match...a week before our one on Glory. And everyone knows I'm 1-0 against Yujiro. Actually..."
"Caroline got the win too? Hmmm, good for her, though she did lose to Yujiro in a triple threat match...a week before our one on Glory. And everyone knows I'm 1-0 against Yujiro. Actually..."
Trixie looks over the first show's match again, reading it right that Yujiro did win against Caroline and Maverick. Confident on her win over Yujiro at the end of 2016, she saw it as a huge boost to her own abilities that the man she defeated beat her own opponents coming up.
TRIXIE:
"Yujiro beat both of my opponents in a triple threat match. I've beaten Yujiro so I guess Maverick and Caroline are going into this outmatched, feels pretty good to already be one upping the champion. Also weird how hashtag Team Trixie all have triple threats next week."

Trixie looks at the poster next to the results. WCG's Hype featuring Jack Santore in his triple threat, Tornado in one and Trixie herself in another the day after.
TRIXIE:
"I would love it if all three of us won. Get Tornado into the title picture, Jack Santore into the picture too. And, of course, a win over Maverick, who's got a list of champions to his name. Caroline the active champion, it's the perfect opportunity to get back into things."

Trixie says using her nail to 'accidentally' scratch the picture of Kayla in the main event of Glory and heads on her way.
INT. PLANE, JUNE 24TH
On the private jet heading back to Vegas, we see Trixie sitting in her seat without a seatbelt on for now and NOT enjoying a strawberry daiquiri as she's accustomed to despite coming off two road show wins. Instead, Trixie opts for her punishment drink; water with a touch of diluted orange, not enough to make it taste like orange but enough to corrupt the flavour so it doesn't taste enjoyable. Trixie's training being showcased to condition herself and she wasn't at all at the point to enjoy a reward yet.
TRIXIE:
"So I'm still a little sore from the road show but one thing everyone knows, inside of outside of Redemption is I have impecable endurance and I bounce back easy from anything. So this hometown match against Maverick and Caroline is going to be a platform for me to totally showcase that. Show I'm here in Redemption, knock me down physically or competitively, either way, I come right back at you."

Trixie dances around her name as The Bouncing Bunny. At a glance it seems cuddly and sex appeal driven. But for the clever, it's a name to indicate Trixie's speed, her ability to endure a match up and comeback and fight on despite being bloody, hurt, fatigued. A medium that would confuse the uneducated opponents, and many outside of Redemption had done exactly as Trixie intended, assumed it as cutsey, not the underlying meaning it truly represented. She was now telling everyone the true meaning behind the name.
TRIXIE:
"I've been highly successful in multiple person matches. Outside of Redemption I won a TV Championship in a triple threat. Inside Redemption, Fatal Four Way so one extra man, I became Genesis Champion...where I beat Heavyweight Champion Yujiro, just saying."
"I've been highly successful in multiple person matches. Outside of Redemption I won a TV Championship in a triple threat. Inside Redemption, Fatal Four Way so one extra man, I became Genesis Champion...where I beat Heavyweight Champion Yujiro, just saying."
Trixie says with a confident smile and shrug, treating it as no big deal and just something she'd do everyday.
TRIXIE:
"This time around, I'm against another champion. A New Gen Champion and it really seems like I can get a name for myself by defeating champs or future champs. The Genesis four way was not an easy match, I'm not saying this one will be either. Caroline has managed to defend her title for over a hundred days, and Maverick is quite a special competitor with how he's written as a contender for the heavyweight title in the wrap-up. Now that Matthew didn't do what I did, defeat Keiji, Maverick's just waiting and I'm in a fine opportunity to say I beat both the reigning champion and the contender."

INT. JAPAN HOTEL - 2017
Trixie adjorns herself from the club, disappointed over the lack of appearance by her father. She enters the room in the same modest clothing she wore to the bar, not to attract attention and sat on the bed, pulling out her phone to text Devlin.
TRIXIE: (TEXTING)
"Weird being in Japan without you, Devie. I'll see you Wednesday, Tuesday, timezones lol. Sleep well or hope you slept well. Love you xxxx"
"Weird being in Japan without you, Devie. I'll see you Wednesday, Tuesday, timezones lol. Sleep well or hope you slept well. Love you xxxx"
And she turns out the light on the bedside table, getting comfortable for her match ahead. Coincidentally, it would be a fatal four way, a muulti-person match.

OOC: I'm completely removing the cheating bit that happened outside of Redemption from my story. I didn't write it, it was done in another RP that as I see it now is moot, I am not making it canon any longer so for all intensive purposes, Trixie did nothing in Japan going forward. So this thread can be forgotten as I'm not going along with it anymore. I'm sticking with what I write and so I never had Trixie going to do that (spoilers) so I hope it won't be brought up by anyone because I'm going on record as not going along with it anymore. It made me really dislike my own character and I want to have fun again so I'm not going to be going along with it and I hope everyone else can go along with the revised story too please.
The off-camera is what happened, Trixie went to be early after a drink in solitude.
