Princess Lawler - R. Orton

24

Randy and I were leaving to go to the performance center. I was dressed in leggings and a sports bra with an NXT jacket over it. I walked in the talent door with Randy. It was already 10. Which meant the day was in full swing. Randy held my hand as we walked into the area with all the rings. Matt and Darren were the first to notice me. Darren walked over telling someone to cover him. He gave me a hug, and a hand shake to Randy.

"You want to scare the recruits don't you?" He asks. I smile and nod.

"Well, they are breaking right now. The good ones are in the ring." He says. I nod.

"Awesome. I mean now I can come back and prove that it's hard work. Both of us being champion." I say. Randy smiles.

"Your locker. Still untouched." He says. I nod.

"Same combo?" I ask. He nods.

"Okay, we will be back." I say leading Randy down the Hall of Champions which is what you have to walk through to get to the lockers. They were small gym lockers, to put keys or clothes in. We walk down and there was a picture of me crying holding the title on Wrestlemania. Underneath my name. And the exact date that I won the title. Jon was in the hall holding the United States Title, Bryan was holding the WWE title, Ettore was holding the intercontinental title, and Dustin and Cody had the tag titles. We got in the locker room and I took my jacket off and tied my hair up. Randy put the keys in my locker and I put my jacket in. When we were walking out Ben and some man walked over.

"Hey." Ben said giving me a hug.

"Who's this?" I ask gesturing to the man next to Ben.

"This is future prospect. He was offered a contract. He came out to see what this place is doing, how everything runs. Being here for a while they asked me to do this." Ben says.

"Names Fergal." The man says. I nod.

"I've got a little bit of scaring to do with recruits." I say.

"Have fun. I'll see you later." Ben says. I smile and walk away with Randy. We get back downstairs and everyone is sitting listening to Matt.

"What were practicing now is basic ring skills. We've done rolls, and something that's essential in most, if not all matches are Hip tosses. Orton, Lawler. Show them how its done." Matt says. We step in the ring.

"Both ways. First Lawler tosses Orton, then you switch." Matt says. I nod and Randy looks to me. I nod and we do him first, him getting up right away not even phased. Then when I go, he assists none whatsoever when it comes to strength so I was able to get up easily. We got our the ring. Matt and I scouting. Randy was looking at something else.

"So, I was wondering." I start saying to Matt, but stop.

"Beth. Go over. Not around. This is hurting you more this way." I shout. She nods and continues. A few others who are obviously amateurs did it incorrectly. Matt noticed it as well as I did.

"Because some of you can't do this like your supposed to. Do it by yourselves. Go over. Not around. If one more person messes up were gonna do more drills and you won't like them." Matt yells. That put them all on edge.

"Okay, what were you wondering?" He asks. "Do you know of anyone here that can teach the Corkscrew Moonsault?" I ask.

"Why?" He asks.

"Because, I want that under my belt for Sunday." I state with a smile.

"Sara can, but she's in a meeting. Deciding who to stay, and who's gonna be fired." He says. I nod.

"Partners." Matt yells once everyone has got that down. Everyone starts doing that good, then these two come by and they still haven't understood what's being said.

"I've got them." I state. I get to where they are and pull them aside.

"Guys, what aren't you understanding here?" I ask.

"This. I don't understand how to go up." One says the other nods.

"Get in this ring." I say. They nod and hop in. I follow.

"Your gonna do it to me." I say.

"No way." The one says.

"Why?" I ask.

"Cuz your a girl. I don't hit girls." He says.

"You're not hitting." I state. He sighs and when he does so I go outward which makes me think, maybe it's them. I never go out because I've mastered it.

"Thanks." I say and have the get out. I walk over to Matt.

"They better get it tomorrow. If not. They already won't make it anywhere." Matt says. I nod. They continue before we add more and more. We then tell them hit the showers. We will be working on promos. The audience? NXT roster. I decide to go get Sara. I leading Randy. He was holding my hand.

"Hey." I say. She smiles.

"What can I do for you?" She asks.

"Corkscrew Moonsault." I state. She smiles.

"Something you refused to learn." She says.

"Because the first time I did it I got injured. Not this time." I say with a smirk.

"You done scaring new guys?" She asks looking up at Randy before turning her attention back to me.

"Yeah." I say.

"I'd be happy to." She says.

"You have anyone right now?" I ask.

"Bayley." She says. She never called them by their actual name. Always ring name.

"What is she trying to learn?" I ask.

"She is trying to makeup her own move." She responds. I nod.

"What is she thinking?" I ask.

"She wants it to be high flying. That's all she had thought of." Sara says. Pam walked over.

"I've gotta stop today, I can't think of anything." She said. Sara noded. Pam then walked in the training area for the roster. Onward. She showed me how to do it then positioned me and let me try. I messed up the first few time and got frustrated, but I didn't give up. I told myself. One last time. This is it. If I can't get it then I'm not learning it. I got on the top rope and did exactly what I was supposed to and did it right. I smiled wide as I did it many many times to make sure I could do it. When I was tired I stopped. Thanked Sara and showered. We then left after we grabbed our stuff. He smiled at me as I drove.

"Today was so much fun. Can't wait to be back with Seth and Dean tomorrow." I say remembering to call them by their ring names.

"Well, I have an interview tomorrow. They gave me some interviews while I was down here." Randy says. I nod.

"Well, we can always go out on a date tonight since I won't see much of you tomorrow." I suggest.

"Well, I thought you were gonna see friends tonight." He says.

"We could just head to a bar. Invite a couple people or even just the two of us." I suggest.

"Let's head out to dinner, then we can do whatever."
