The Sky Is Looking Great For April - A. Lee / D. Ambrose

Chapter 73

I woke up at 8 and took a shower. Dean took one and we ate breakfast together. We packed our bags up. I put them in the car then came back up. "You ready?" I ask. "Yeah one second." He says. He grabs the key to this room and we head out. We arrive in the arena. We put our stuff away and a camera person greets me. "We're just following you around for the day. In your Wrestlemania journey. Bayleys got the same." He says. "Alright awesome. I'll see you later Dean." I say. "Okay. Bye." He says before kissing me on the cheek and walking away. I just continue walking to see the stadium. "Woa!" I say turning and seeing all of this. "It's so surreal." I say with a smile looking all the way up at the top of the stadium to the last row of seats. Bayley then walks over. "Oh gosh. I can't believe this is my first Wrestlemania." She says looking around like a kid on Christmas. "Hey. Bayley." I say turning to her. She smiles. "May the best woman win." She says to me with her hand outstretched. "Thanks. I will." I respond while shaking her hand. I walk back inside and see Seth and Roman. "You check this place out already?" Seth asks. "Hell yeah!" I say with a smile. I continue walking and sit at a table. "This is gonna be my Wrestlemania moment. It's gotta be. I know that it is. I've been here in WWE for a long time and every single Wrestlemania. I get this nervous feeling. When I get out there and here the croud it all goes away." I say. "Do you have a game plan for tonight's match?" "No. I don't. Bayley isn't like every other diva I've wrestled. It's not a plan, but its to make sure she's down. If shes down she's not dangerous." I say. "Okay, we will catch up with you a bit before your match." He says. "Wait, like when? After I get dressed, after hair and makeup?" I ask. "Maybe we might get to you during makeup." He says. "Okay.. See ya later." I say. I walk away and head to find any friend. I do. I find Renee. "Hey." I say. "Hey. I'm gonna wish you luck because I have no clue when I'll see you again. I've gotta go to hair and makeup for the preshow." She says. "It's 1. That's awful early." I say. "It starts at 5:30. Ends 6:30. Then we get to the actual show." She says. "Okay." I say before she walks away and I go find something to do to waste time. I finally wasted enough time so I head to get dressed. My nerves building up more and more. I decided to not go for a 100% AJ look. I wanted to step out of my shell. I put on a cropped blue hoodie that said Lee on the back and was like a jersey. Then a glamour kills shirt that says psyched. A pair of blue jeans, and black converse with pink laces. I went to makeup and the camera guy is there. "So, AJ. It's crunch time. How are you feeling?" He asks as he starts filming. "I feel like there is an immense amount of pressure on my shoulders. My brother and sisters are here for the first time, and whenever family or something is here for this. I feel like I can't loose. Like its my duty to win." I say as the makeup girl gets to work. "Do you think Bayley will play dirty to win?" He asks. "Knowing Bayley she won't play dirty, because she's one of the few divas that play by the rules." I say. We continue this system of asking questions and me answering. I finally finish hair and makeup and go to where Dean told me he would be. I walk in and see Dean, Roman and Romans parents, and daughter. "Hey." I say with a smile. "Hey! You excited?" Roman asks. "Yeah! More nervous." I say. "Your gonna win." Dean says. "This is a serious question. If you were to bet on Dean or me. Who would you bet on to win?" Roman asks. "You. Duh." I say with a smirk. "Hey." Dean whines. "Kidding....maybe." I say. Dean just glares. "Why not me?" He asks. "Because. The past few times I've bet on you Deanieboy you lost. The one time I was out $100 because of you loosing." I explain. "Oh yeah!" I say. "Wait, have you bet on her and lost?" Roman asks. "No. Not that I can remember." He says. We then stop talking for a moment and pay attention to the match. It's then Seths match. I'm very upset I can't see who's gonna win. My match is directly after. "I'll see you guys later. My match is next." I say. Roman stands up. "Nah. I've got this tonight." I say. He shrugs and sits back down. Dean gives me a kiss and says "Good luck. Hope ya win." "Thanks." I say before leaving. I go into an empty area close by the curtain. I stretch and do push ups. Fix any last second things and sit in the room. I watch everything with the match and I zone out. I then hear music. Not Seths. Wade Barrets. After 5-10 minutes they come to the back and we get set for the divas match. My music hits and I skip out there with a smile on my face. All the nerves no where in sight. After about a minute or two Bayley walks down to the ring. They start the match and Bayley and I go after one another when all the sudden it starts down pouring. I glare a little at I have no idea what and continue the match hoping it won't last long. The ring is kinda slippery. I learned that the hard way as I went to go off the ropes and give her a clothes line. I fell and almost let it ruin my entire mood right here. I didn't. I hit the mat and got back up. The entire audience then started chanting 'You fell over!' I brushed the dirt of my shoulder and ignored it. The ref was paying attention to me to make sure I was okay. I noded as I stood up. Bayley went after me again clothes lining me every time I got up. The rain stopped and I know it was my time. She gave me a belly to belly suplex and she pinned me. I kicked out at two and a half and Bayley started getting frustrated asking if it was really 3. The crowd then started chanting 'this is awesome' I smiled to myself as I set her up for the black widow. She moved her hand the wrong way right by my eye and her thumb poked me really hard. The ref didn't notice as I stopped and kinda dropped. She noticed what she did and Bayley being Bayley went and checked on my to make sure I was okay. I nodded and rolled her up for one, two, three. I immediately rolled out the ring with a smile on my face as I grabbed the title and raised in the air walking backwards up the ramp to face Bayley who was very pissed off. When I walk back to the curtain Vince, Hunter and Stephanie give me a congratulations and a hug. I say thank you as I walk to the back covering my eye which is already swollen. I start to head to the trainers room. On the way I pass the room we were all in. "AJ. Congrats." Roman says giving me a hug. "Thanks. I've gotta go. Celebrate in a bit." I say. "Can I join?" Dean asks with a small smile forming. "Fine if you must." I say sarcastically. He glares at me as he stands up. We start walking and Dean gives me a hug. "What's wrong?" He asks. I move my hand from my eye and Dean looks at it. "Damn." He says. "I didn't see when that happened." He says. "It was when I was going for the black widow. She didn't mean it." I say with a shrug as we finally arrive. He checks out my eye and says "There isn't anything we can really do. We could give you an eye patch. That's pretty much." "Okay. It's fine right? Just swollen?" I ask. "It's a scratched cornea. Swelling should go down in about a week. It will take a bit for the cornea to fix itself though. You fine though." He says. I nod and hop off the chair. We go back to the room and the first thing Seth says to me is. "You fell over." I glare at him. "What happened to your eye?" Roman asks. "I have a scratched cornea from when Bayley poked me in the eye." I say. "So, how's it feel to be champion. For the 11th time." Dean asks. "It feels damn good. I'm back." I say. "Hopefully Roman will be champion for the first time tonight." Romans mom says. "The title is all wet." Dean complains. "Your smart. It was raining. That's why I slipped." I say. "Okay then." Dean says. "I like your jacket." Dean then says. "You want it?" I ask. "Awe how sweet. Now I get to steal this from you. Like you stole my leather one." Dean says as he puts it on. "Awe. I dare you to wear that to the ring tonight." Seth says with a laugh. "I'll wear my leather one over it, but I'm totally cool with this." Dean says. "Okay, I've gotta go. If I don't make it back in time. I'm wishing you both luck." I say. "Mhm." They both mumble to me. I roll my eyes as I leave with the belt. "Hey, AJ. Can we get a word with you about your match? How are you feeling about this win?" Eden asks. "Truthfully... I can't see out of my left eye and I was humiliated when I fell, but that's okay." I say. "Tomorrow on Raw. It's old school raw. How are you feeling about having a bunch of legends there?" She asks. "Great. As long as no one steps out of line in attempts to grab this title. I couldn't care less." I say with a shrug. "11 time divas champion. Feels great?" She asks. "It feels hella great. In fact. Something that I've done that no one else has is get past 3. That's great." I say. "Some would call you a legend." Eden says which then gives me an idea. I need a heel persona. I mean they've seen me face to long. "I am a legend. The only difference between me and the legends tomorrow. Is I know how to fight. They can't pick up a quarter without breaking a bone." I say with a shrug before skipping away. I go and change into dry clothes and as I'm walking out Hunter says "Hey, AJ. So we just looked at the interview Eden conducted and because you turned heel. It makes the feud you and Bayley will have more interesting. It's better than 2 faces fighting." I nod. "Yeah no problem. I was thinking about who I kinda am and who my character is, and it was kinda like I've won the title too many times for the universe to see this nice girl who gets pushed around. Now we have this mean girl who gets pushed around and she's not gonna pretend it's nothing." I say. "Congrats AJ." He says again before walking away. I head to catering grab a plate of food. I finish it and go to the room they were in. "Hey mom, Dad. If you guys don't want to go out there. You can stay in here with AJ and Seth. If you want." Roman suggests. "Um, no we want to watch this up close." They say. "Okay. That's fine. Now Dean." Roman says looking to Dean. "Whoever looses buys the beer." Dean say immediately. "That too. What I was good luck. Cuz uh. Your gonna need it." Roman says. "Oh please. Luck is for those who don't have talent." Dean says cockily. Tonight would be interesting to say the least.
