No Mercy, October 9th

Wow, it doesn't even feel a month ago I was on Raw defending my WWE Women's Championship and now I'm fighting Becky Lynch for the Smackdown Women's championship. I stand backstage with a few of my favorite people, Mercedes, Dean, Nikki, Naomi, and John. Also two other people decided to stand backstage with me, Eric and Liv. I tied my Jordan's up as Dean ran his hand through his messy hair, I stood back up and rolled my wrists a few times as Liv kissed Eric's cheek.

"How's my favorite WWE Women's champion doing?" I ask and sling my arm across Mercedes' shoulder, "Good, how's my favorite soon to be Smackdown Women's champion doing?" She laughs and I shake my head slightly. "Great." I reply as Nikki smiles at the two of us. "You guys have to be the cutest friends ever." Naomi smiles before saying goodbye and walking over to her husband Jimmy, "Since NXT." I say and hug Mercedes as John chuckles and Dean smiles at me.

Mercedes lets go of me before checking her phone and frowning, "Aw sorry Addi, but I gotta go. My parents just got into town." She says and I smile understandingly. "It's okay Cedes, tell them I said hi." I say as she quickly hugs me and runs down the hall, "Thanks for coming Eric, I appreciate it." I say before Dean snakes his arm around my waist.

"No problem, couldn't miss you win the title." He smiles as I nod, completely ignoring the fact that Liv is giving me a dirty look. "Well, you're on lovebirds." John chuckles as Becky Lynch begins her entrance, "Thanks John, wish me luck." I laugh as Dean and I walk towards the stage entrance. As you can probably tell, Eric and I have become friends again and it feels great. We had a long conversation on Sunday, we cleared all of our problems up and we essentially made up. "Good luck kiss?" Dean smirks from beside me as I roll my eyes jokingly.

"Yes please." I smile before planting my lips against his, he holds my hips and I place my hands on his cheeks. My music begins and I quickly pull away from him, I wait until the right time before running out onto the stage. Dean walks out behind me as I jump up and down a few times, shaking my arms out, he claps for me with a giant smirk on his face. I spin around slowly, grabbing his hand before walking down to the ring.

A small girl yells my name various times as I get closer to the ring, she waves at me excitedly with a bright smile on her face. I laugh slightly and wave back at her, she freaks out and spins around to her parents to tell them what had happened. I let go of Deans hand before he plants a kiss on my temple and I climb onto the apron, jumping over the top rope.

I throw my hands up in the air and the crowd cheers, I smile and drop my hands to my sides before standing in my corner. I take my hat and jacket off, dropping them down to Dean, "Good luck angel." He smiles at me before I wink and turn to look at Becky. She hands the ref her title belt before shaking her arms out, I crack my knuckles as the bell rings and we both run towards each other. I jump up and drop kick her to the ground before quickly standing back up, she clutches her stomach as I grab a fistful of her hair and pull her towards the center of the ring.

I throw my hand up in the air before grabbing her leg and front flipping over top of her, slamming her leg off the canvas. She screams out in pain and writhes around before I stand up and parade around her, "Come on Becky, get up!" I lean down and yell in her face before I'm kicked in mine. I stumble back and fall down onto the mat, holding my nose as I feel it begin to bleed.

Becky slowly climbs to her feet as I pinch the bridge of my nose, blood dripping onto my pants. She grabs my hair and pulls me up, I let go of my nose and the bleeding continues. She sets me up for the Bex-Plex Suplex and throws me over her shoulder, I land on my back and writhe around in pain before she picks me up again. She stumbles and I take advantage by kicking her in the jaw, she falls back onto the canvas and I quickly pick her back up.

Later On In The Match

We exchange a few good punches, kicks, pins, submissions, DDT's, kick outs and suplex's as the match continues. At this point I'm basically a bloody mess, my nose was now slowly dripping blood, my knee was on the verge of giving out, and I survived 2 Dis-Arm-Her's. Right now I'm standing in front of a very weak and tired Becky as Dean chants my name, I kick her in the shin and she slightly leans over. I grab her head and put it under my arm before grabbing her arms and putting them behind her back, I'm about to do Dean's finisher, Dirty Deeds. I slowly point at Dean before swinging my leg out, Becky's head hitting the canvas as I fall back on top of her and the ref begins to count.

"1..2..3!" The ref and the crowd yell as the bell rings and I roll off of Becky. "Your winner of this match, and new Smackdown women's champion, Adriana!" The ring announcer exclaims as I lie on my back, cradling my knee. Dean grabs the belt for me as Becky rolls out of the ring, tears flowing down her face as Dean helps me up.

I sit on my knees as Dean crouches in front of me, "I love you Adds." He smiles and hands me the belt before wiping away a few of my tears. I kiss him gently as he puts his hand on the back of my neck, "I love you too Dean." I smile back at him after pulling away from him. He lifts me up and I balance all of my weight on my good knee, Becky slowly walks up the ramp to the stage as Dean helps me to lift the belt in the air.
