Corporate Suits

Devestation

Nicole was floored. She could barely stand from the hellacious match she scraped a victory from, thus making Carmella confess whom was behind it all (if it wasn't her).

"AJ! It was all AJ! She's the one behind it all!"

April was livid. Nicole was livid. She didn't appreciate Carmella still lying about the war and even trying to put the blame on AJ? AJ would never!

It was when Brie broke down into tears, kneeled in the corner of the ring mumbling "It's true... Carmella's telling the truth..." for Nicole to actually consider what was happening. Although AJ was mad she was still eerily calm. It was all red flags for Nikki.

"I'm so sorry, she knew things about me- things I wanted no one to know and she threatened to out me. I would've lost my job, WWE is my life... She said to listen to her and help her make this division better..." By then Leah was in tears herself. She quickly scrambled from the ring, her eyes wide in fear at April.

"I couldn't let her ruin my marriage Nicole, I'm so sorry..." Brie follows up.

"Wait....wait a minute... I-is this real? Is this really happening? April, you didn't do this. You didn't- I- you-" She trembles, "I won't believe them, ok? I can't believe you'd do that to me. Right? Tell them."

"She was the only one that knew about your neck Nikki! She's the one that told us to injure you tonight!" Carmella shouts.

"Shut up! I don't believe you! Where's Alexa? She's the one that said someone else was over this!" Nikki looks at the entrance ramp, Alexa Bliss making her way out with Finn Bálor backing her. "Alexa! Who is it? Please tell me once and for all."

Alexis's blue eyes are dim with sadness for Nicole. "You know who it is, don't make me say it."

Tears are escaping Nikki's eyes as she shakes her head, "No. No! It's not AJ! It's not!"

"Dammit..." AJ finally speaks. "I've had enough of this!" Everyone looks at AJ. The small woman laughs, "This isn't the way I pictured it playing out for us, Nicole. You were supposed to get injured tonight, that way you could stay home with me. It would've been so romantic as I nursed you back to health, all the while convincing you to retire early so we could spend our lives together."

BOOOOOOOO

Nikki felt like she got slammed by a truck. The impact of AJ's words, the dawning realization that oh my God, AJ really did plan this knocked Nicole on her ass, the Bella not having the strength to stay upright so she landed back down on the mat with her eyes up to the blinding lights.

"Believe me, it wasn't supposed to be this way love." AJ tries to lean down close to Nikki when Brie steps in front of her twin, hatred in her eyes.

"Don't touch her!" Both Brie and Alexa say. AJ looks at the five foot woman incredulous.

"So you're the one that was on my tail." April sighs, "Mm. You were becoming quite the pain, especially since I couldn't deal with you personally. What was the clue that told you it was me?"

Alexis chuckles, "Repeated history."

"Excuse me?"

"Come on, don't pretend you didn't do the same thing with Phil's Staph Infection situation when he was here."

The fans couldn't believe what they were hearing.

"Thing is, Phil didn't listen to his friends when they kept saying it was you. You were much sloppier back then. John told me. You thought it was a success since Punk left the WWE and married you. But you didn't keep him- he wised up and went on to UFC. But he never divorced you, you divorced him for Nikki. So my question is, did you really ever love Nicole? Or was she your new obsession?"
