Austin's POV
I sent out a tweet before going with Sasha to meet with Stephanie Mcmahon and Triple H. "Seems like I'm wanted on the main roster @StephMcmahon... See you soon boss lady." I know that would probably piss her off, because that's what AJ used to call her, but I guess we will see what happens. "What the hell?" AJ said laughing. "What?" "That tweet you just sent out." "Oh. That. You used to call her that. I figured it would be kind of funny." "It is kind of funny." She said laughing again. "Sasha you ready yet?" I yelled from the other room. She was taking forever to get ready. "Yes! I'm coming out." "Damn you look beautiful." "Thanks." She said smirking. We all got into a car and drove off.
We got to the Authority's office and knocked on the door. I heard someone yell "Come in!". "Austin, Mercedes, April, take a seat." Stephanie said. "So, we just want to talk about what you guys are going to do for a debut." We nodded and she went on. "Sasha, you are going to debut in a women's revolution along with a few other NXT diva's that we just called up." She nodded and Hunter turned to me. "You are going to debut against AJ Styles. I understand that you know him and some of the matches that you guys put on before you came here were great. Also, you are going to start a rivalry with the United States champion Rusev. It will go through Wrestlemania which will end with the two of you facing off at Wrestlemania for the United States championship." I nodded. "We will give the two of you more details when you get here later tonight, just try to get more rest before you have to come here. It's going to be a big night." With that they let us go. It will be a big night and I can't wait.
We got to the arena and Sasha went on a tour with The Bellas. I bumped into AJ Styles when I was walking around. "Kid, nice job down in NXT!" "Thanks AJ. I'm so pumped to be able to be here. And I hear I get to debut against you?" "Yeah. It was actually my idea. I showed Hunter the classics that we put on in ROH and he loved it." "Yeah he said that. Well thanks, I will see you later." He nodded and then fist bumped me before walking off. I went to go see where we were on the card, and I ran into none other than Brock Lesnar. "You're the new kid?" I nodded. "Well let's get one thing straight. I don't give a shit about you." "Yo Brock! Leave the new kid alone!" I heard from behind him. Seth Rollins walked up beside me. "You think I'm afraid of you Lopez?" "Well maybe not of him, but you should be afraid of me." Dean Ambrose said walking up beside us. "I'm not scared of you either Jon." "Well you might want to piss off if you don't want to get your ass kicked." Roman Reigns said as he came up behind me to back us up. Brock then threw his hands up in defeat and walked away. "Thanks for having my back guys." I said when he was gone. "No problem. You seem like a nice kid, and we're all in this together. That means all for one and one for all." Seth said as Dean and Roman nodded their head in agreement. "Thanks guys. I got your back too." We fist bumped and they let me get ready for tonight. I mean the Shield are not together any more, but the must still hang around together. But I'm glad I have someone who has my back.
Sasha and I met in that catering, it is a couple of hours until showtime. "So, what did you do when I was with The Bellas?" "Not much. Ran into Brock Lesnar, who looked like he wanted to kick my ass. But believe it or not, The Shield stepped in and helped me out." "I thought they split up." "So did I, but they must hang around together off camera. They said that they have my back, which is awesome that I made friends right off the bat. What about you?" "Well the Bellas were awesome, and so was Paige, Naomi who I am teaming with now I guess." "Well that's good that you have a good support system around you." I said to her. Then Roman came up to us. "You ready for tonight kid?" I took a deep breath. "Yeah. But I would be lying if I said that I was not nervous." "Don't worry. I felt the same way when we made our debut. It will be ok, just keep your head up. Also, AJ is a professional, I know you know that, but I've seen some of the matches that you guys put on,and they were some of the best that I've seen." "Thanks Roman." "No problem. Come on kid let's go get you warmed up." I nodded and kissed Sasha on the head before following Roman to his locker room. "So, Sasha Banks kid?" Roman asked laughing on the way to the locker room. "Yeah. I love her, man." "Well that's good. I'm glad you found someone." He said smiling. I nodded. "Dean might come by before the show and help out." "Ok. Sounds good." Roman has been in the ring with AJ before, as have I, but he was giving me tips on how to take him down. He didn't have a match tonight but he warmed up with me. Ambrose came in and warmed up with us also, he was going to have a match with John Cena. Rollins must be talking with the Authority or some shit. Before I had to go to the gorilla, my phone started ringing. It was Ric Flair. Triple H introduced me to him, and he's helped me out ever since. "Remember what you are. A mother fucking superstar. I'm so proud of you Austin." He told me. "Thanks Naitch. I hope I'm making you proud." He chuckled. "You definitely are." "Thanks for everything you've done for me." "You can thank me by going out there and having the best match of your career." I smiled. "You know it." I said as we hung up. I heard my name called to the gorilla and I walked out to find Sasha waiting for me. "I know you will do great out there. Put on another five star classic." I nodded and she kissed me on the lips. I heard my theme play and I took a deep breath before going through the curtain.
I shook hands with AJ before we locked up. I got him in a side headlock before he bounced me off the ropes and hit me with a shoulder block. I got back up and he hit me with a standing dropkick. Damn that hurt. He has the most brutal dropkick in the business. I got back up and swung at him but he ducked and hit me with a pele kick. He covered but I kicked out before the ref could count to two. He smirked at me before getting me up and trying to suplex me, but I countered into a neckbreaker. I went out on the apron and hit him with a springboard frog splash. I covered but he kicked out at two. He got up and quickly hit me with an enziguri and quickly covered but I again kicked out before the ref could count to two. He then got me up and went for a Styles Clash, but I hit him with back body drop. I then got him up and hit him with a dropkick. I then went up to the top and hit him with an elbow drop. I went into the corner and clapped a few times to get the crowd behind me. He then got up and I hit him with a Last Call Superkick. I covered but he kicked out at the last millisecond. I looked down at him and laughed. I then got him up and hit him with a codebreaker, which set up for the frog splash. I went up to the top and tried to hit it, but he got out of the way and got me up and hit me with a pele kick. He covered again but I kicked out at two. He then got me up and hit me with a Styles Clash. He rolled me up and I kicked out at two again. He looked down at me and smiled, remembering all those classics we had in ROH. He then got me up and hit me with a running bulldog. He then went up to the top, took a little to much time, when he went for a frog splash I got out of the way and hit him with a DDT. I covered but he kicked out again. I went in the corner and set up for a spear, I ran at him and he hit me with a wicked roundhouse kick. He covered me again and I kicked out at the very last second. He then got me up and tried to hit me with another Styles Clash, but I hit him with another back body drop and as he was getting up, I bounced off the ropes and hit him with a Spear. I covered and got the win. I got him up and shook his hand and gave him a big hug in respect.
Sasha's POV
"Where the hell did he come from?!" I yelled. Rusev just came in and superkicked Austin and AJ and then he locked on the accolade on and that caused Austin to pass out. Lana told him to let him go, he then grabbed his belt from her and held it up in Austin's face. "You will never get my title you stupid American!" AJ got back up and hit him with a wicked enziguri kick and sent Rusev outside of the ring. He checked on Austin. He yelled at Rusev, something that I could not catch. He got Austin up and helped him to the back. AJ and I met them at the gorilla position. "Are you guys ok?" I asked. "Yeah. This kid is tough as nails though. He refused to tap to that accolade, I just feel bad I could not get there sooner." "Eh don't worry about it Styles. Anyone taking a superkick from that guy would be out for a few seconds." Austin said smiling at AJ. "Thanks kid. You going to be ok?" He nodded. "Alright I'm out then." He then came to me. "Keep an eye on him." I nodded. He then walked off. Roman, Dean and Seth came up afterwards. "You alright kid? You really put on a great match, and then Rusev comes in and tries to destroy you." Reigns said. "I'm fine. All he did was piss me off. At Wrestlemania, his ass is mine. Believe that." He said smirking. They all did their fist bump thing and we went back to the hotel. "I think I can speak for both AJ and I when I say we were both worried about you." I said as he was driving back. "Don't worry about me guys. I'm no stranger to getting jumped from behind." He said not taking his eyes off the road. "I know but it looked like Rusev almost broke you in half." AJ said. "Meh. All he proved tonight is that he's a pussy who has to jump people from behind to try to prove a point. I'm going to destroy him at Wrestlemania, and take his title in the process right in front of his fake ass Russian wife." I could not help but to laugh. "How the hell did you know that Lana was not Russian?" AJ said laughing as well. "It does not take a rocket scientist to figure something like that out." He said smirking as we pulled up to the hotel. Despite that Bulgarian sasquatch trying to break him in half, he's still upbeat as hell and has a smile on his face. That's what is different about him and half of the locker room.
