epilogue: the end.

5 months later.....

Finn Bálor's POV

"So it was only 5 months ago that both of you won you titles at Wrestlemania and somehow you both managed to still hold it. How have you have you done it?" Michael Cole asked Mercedes and I in a interview.

I looked at her and smiled, "I told everyone that once I had this WWE World Heavyweight Championship in my hands, I wasn't going to let it go. And I stay true to my words." I answered and she nodded.

"I knew I was going to win the title at Wrestlemania, Michael. I also knew that I wasn't going to give it up once I won it as well." Mercedes answered, confidently and with a smile.

"So the team you had in Wrestlemania had separated pretty much due to the WWE Draft that took place last month in July. Miss any of your old teammates that went to SmackDown?"

"We both miss Austin Aries." Mercedes responded with a smile and I chuckled. "Yes we do but we know Austin is doing amazing over there as he holds the Intercontinental Championship over there and we couldn't be more proud." I continued, answering truthfully.

"Yeah, we also miss Cody but we are glad that he's doing great over there as well." Mercedes added and Michael nodded. "But now if you don't know, Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows are now on RAW's roster and who knows? We could make the 'Bullet Club' again." I teased as Michael chuckled. I fixed the belt on my shoulder before he asked another question.

"What about your fight tonight against Seth Rollins?" He asked me and I shrugged. "Seth is a good guy but he isn't beating me. If he can't beat Sami then he definitely can't beat me. I will "

Austin Aries' POV |later in the day|

"Hurry up, Austin." AJ Styles, or more like one of my good friends, whined as I groaned, "Shut up, AJ. Your voice is annoying." I playfully joked as I dragged my feet along the airport and followed him. I caught up with him and once I did, I saw Finn, Sasha, and Bayley standing waving at us.

I smiled as I quickly ran over there and hugged all of them, "I missed you, guys!" I practically squealed as all of them hugged me as well. "We missed you too."

We all broke the hug as AJ went to go greet Finn and I stood in front of my girlfriend. Yeah, it's hard since we don't see each other on a day to day basis but we have kept it working. "I missed you so much, Bayley." I grabbed her and hugged her tightly. She giggled, "I missed you too."

I let go of her and gave her a quick kiss, "My boyfriend is Intercontinental Champion!" She squealed, out of nowhere and I laughed. "Yep, you got that right."

Then my attention went to Sasha, "Hey, my Women's Champion." I greeted her with a smile and she did the same. "Hey, my Intercontinental Champion." She retaliated as I chuckled and gave her a hug. "I missed your small self." I joked and she laughed at my humor. "You're small too, so shut up."

"But not smaller than you." I fired back, jokingly and she crossed her arms, "I hate you."

"Really? That's what you tell the first time you see me in a month?" I asked, smiling and she nodded. I laughed before moving to Finn. He looked at me, "Austin Aries...the man who couldn't win the United States belt but chose to win the Intercontinental one. Unbelievable." He jokingly said while shaking his head as I chuckled. "Finn Bálor....the man who almost lost to The Miz. The Miz, really?" I joked, resulting in him laughing as well.
