Kurt Angle stood in the ring, mic in hand, when Monday Night Raw began. He waited for the cheering of crowd to die down before bringing the mic to his lips to speak.
"Ladies and Gentleman welcome to Monday Night Raw!" The crowd cheers.
"As of Tonight we are officially one week away from Elimination Chamber. So tonight were gonna have 2 matches to prepare for Elimination Chamber. First it will be Alexa Bliss vs Sasha Banks in a non title Match. Then, in tonight's main event its gonna be Maverick and a partner of his choice vs Buddy Murphy and a partner of his choice".The crowd erupts in cheers.

Sasha Banks finished putting her wrestling gear on before pulling the Raw Women's Championship out of her bag. It had taken her a long time to finally have the title around her waist. She ran her fingers over it feeling every inch on her fingertips. She wasn't about to let anyone take her title away.
She stepped out of her locker room ready for her match. She position the title on her shoulder as she walked down the hallway. She walked with her mind made up. She was gonna win tonight and at the ppv. If she had to lose the title there was no way it was gonna be to little miss bliss.

Maverick stood outside the locker room not sure if he should knock or just walk away. He was a bit nervous. He decided against it and turned around to leave.
The door suddenly opened making him stop halfway. He stood with his back to the door and the one holding it open.
"Maverick" he heard her voice. He took a deep breath and turned around.
"Alexa" he said, "We need to talk".
*****
Sasha Banks watched from a distance. The opened door was covering whoever it was that Maverick was talking to. But she had a pretty good idea of who it was.
She watched as they talked. She couldn't hear what they were saying from where she stood. He didn't seem to notice her eaither. She watched in silence as he suddenly stepped into her locker room.
*****
"What is this about and make it quick" Alexa spoked as she closed the door before turning to face Maverick, "My match is next".
She watched him take a deep breath as he stared at her.
"The truth is" he began, "Im tired of this, Alexa".
She looked at him confused. She was unsure of what he was talking about.
"Tired of what?"."Tired of going around this situation" he began to explain, "Do you wanna know why I saved you from Murphy?".
"Why?" She asked him.He looked at her his gaze never leaving her.
"Because I didn't want him to hurt you. Because I don't want him or anyone else to hurt you".
"Why?" She asked.
"Because" his voice softened but his gaze never faltered "Because Im in love with you" he moved closer but she remain quiet."Ive been inlove with you since the moment that I first looked into your eyes" he moved closer, " My heart was yours then and it still is now".
"Mav-" she began while looking away for a moment."I know your going to say the exact same thing that you told me right before my match at the Royal Rumble but I know you must feel something too" he moved closer until they were inches apart.
"Mav-" she tried talking again.
He moves his finger under her chin and moved her head slowly up until he was staring into her blue eyes. She stared back into his light brown eyes. He leaned in until their lips touched. Her lips were soft but firm. It felt amazing just to touch her lips. His lips began to move and for a moment He felt her lips begin to move along with his. He didn't expected to feel as much as he was feeling from a kiss.
Suddenly he felt her pushed him back to his surprise. He just stared at her.
"Look, I told you everything I had to say at the Royal Rumble" she looked at him, "Now if you'll excuse me I have a match I need to get to" her voice was soft but the words still stung.
She turned and walked towards the doors,"You can let yourself out".
*****
Sasha was still watching the locker room. She knew she had match but couldn't bring herself to leave. If only she could figure out what they had talked about.
After a couple of minutes Alexa walked out first. A few seconds later Maverick followed.
She waited for both to leave before heading towards her match.*****
The match had been going back and forth. Both women giving each other everything they had. There had already been a few close counts. But neither was going to give up easily.
Alexa layed on that mat while Sasha catch her breath while leaning on the ropes. She got up slowly just as alexa began to get up.
Sasha ran towards her opponent but Alexa duck under the clothesline. She turn around around and nailed Sasha with a kick to the gut. She pulls Sasha in for a DDT. Sasha reverses it and grabs her from behind and nails the Bank Statement.
She begins to pull back making Alexa scream.
She raises her hand as if to tap out but instead she tries reaching out for the ropes.
Too far.She manages to roll over Sasha but to her surprise Sasha rolls with her and keeps the hold locked in. Alexa has no choice but to tap out.
The bell rings as Sasha lets go. Her music hits and the ref gives the her the championship. She holds it close to her as if the match had been for the title and she had almost lost it.
Alexa rolled out of the ring, furious at the fact that she was force to tap out. She headed backstage stopping halfway up the ramp to take a glance back at Sasha and the title. She would have her chance at Elimination Chamber.
*****
Maverick stood in the Gorrilla due to the fact that his match was next. He watch on the tv screen as Alexa walked up the ramp only to stop halfway and look back at the ring.
After a few seconds he was watching her walked thru the curtain. She saw him and stopped in her tracks. Maverick looked at her not knowing what to say or do. He felt himself take a step closer to her only for Sasha to come thru the curtain.
"Excuse me" Alexa said as she walked past Him. Sasha simply smiled at him as she walked past him. He simply took a deep breath.
"Focus" he told himself, "Your match is next. Focus".
