Life against the Authority

Chapter One

Austin stood in the back for Smackdown as he was never asked to apart of the show intill now, Austin was told that he was being put into a storyline with his ex-girlfriend Brielle. What Austin didn't know was that Brielle was apart of Stephaine and Hunter's plan to keep him out of sight for the WWE championship as of right now Austin was getting ready for his mixed tag team match against Andrade Cien Almas and Zelina Vega with a mystery partner that he didn't even know who it was. As he watched the two trash talk as much as possible, he ended up having enough of it as he stood at the enterance ramp when the lights went up standing how Ricochet would he was there. 

"Alright alright, enough you two. Cien, ain't you the one who lost to me before you left NXT to come to the main roster huh?" Austin said as the light came on and his music shut off. "Austin, none cares about you're stupid lazy title reign as not even a week after you beat us, you moved up here too taking the title with you something el idolo would have never done to NXT." Zelina said as Austin walked down the ramp standing at the steps. "Yeah yeah, heard that before from Finn Bálor but he did it anyways didn't here. Yet here I am tonight ready for the suppose asskicking y'all are going to give me and my partner." Austin said laughing as he got into the ring as the one song Austin never thought he would hear play as the words went though his head "King of Kings" called at the theme before playing

"and his tag team partner, from Hartford, Connecticut. Brielle McMahon." Jojo called out the youngest daughter of the McMahons walked down the ramp to join her partner in the ring as Austin was shocked that Brielle was his partner. "Let me start off." Brielle called out the Austin as she took off her jacket on the apron before entering the ring to face the slightly shorter Zelina Vega. Thoughtout the match the two girls went back and forth causing both to stumble to their corners causing Austin to tag Brielle as he entered the ring with a springboard knee to Cien's jaw before kicking his knee out from under him letting Austin fall flat on his face only for Almas to drop a knee to the back of the slightly younger man. Making him gasp in pain as he had just returned from a back injury weeks ago, the ref forced Almas to back up as the ref examined Austin who pushed away from the medical attention before stumbling up to grab the ropes to pull himself up to his feet showing his strength. "Austin, you need to stop this. you can't take the fight." Zelina said as she noticed Austin was holding his back as he stood up. "I'm fine." Austin called out before returning to Cien, who was talking to the ref before being spooked as Austin picked him up for his signature known as ACES causing both men to stay on the ground as Austin was able to slowly get to his corner tagging in Brielle who took the opportunity to use Austin's finisher known as Killshot knocking Zelina to the mat going for the pin as both Brielle and Austin knew that's how Austin was gonna end the match if he had the strength to stay in it. "1!! 2!! 3!!" The crowd roared as the ref's hand hit the mat each time. "The winners of this match Brielle McMahon and the NXT Champion Austin Evans." Jojo announced smiling brightly as Austin got into the ring holding up the hand of his teammate before heading backstage with her smiling before being met by Stephaine and Hunter. "Nice work out there you two, no wonder Y'all had great chemistry when you two dated." Stephaine said smiling as she hugged her daughter. "Welp, what can I say, I know how Brandon would have ended the match that's why I used Killshot instead of my own." Brielle explained smiling brightly as Austin pushed past Hunter not wanting to talk to the parents of his ex. "Austin wait up!" Cassidy called out as she ran up behind her best friend. "You okay?" Cassidy asked as the taller male stopped by the catering room. "Yeah, just didn't want to deal with Brielle and her parents at the same time." Austin explained as he grabbed a bottle of water taking a sip of it. "Makes sense, I mean. Her parents hate you ever since you and Brielle broke up in high school." Cassidy said as they sit down at a table with Paige and Jeff. "Nice work, Champ." Jeff said smiling as he had watched the match between the four superstars smiling. "The daredevil side came out and you fought through the pain." Paige said to agree with Jeff's statement as they got up to leave. "Just remember, keep your mind and words right. don't say the wrong thing around Brielle or her parents." Cassidy said smiling as Brielle walked up. "Brandon, we have a segment with my parents. come on." Brielle said as the hurt superstar stood up walking with her towards the locker room where Hunter and Stephaine as the camera approach the four. "What do you two want?" Austin said rudely as he stood holding his back. "Just wanted to tell my daughter a good job. Is that a problem Evans." Hunter said rudely back as they stood there. "No, it's not. now if you excuse me. I want to get home." Austin said as he went to push pass Hunter only to be caught with a slap by Stephanie. "You do not walk away when we are talking to you. You understand me Evans." Stephaine yelled only to caught a push from Brielle. "You don't have to yell at Austin, he's hurt and needs to get checked out. You let him almost finish that match with a possible reinjured back."Brielle said in defense of Austin as they stood there before pushing past her parents with Austin on her side. Brandon was checked by the doctors as they said he would be fine to compete as he left Brielle grabbing his bags leaving the arena as he would be showing up at NXT tomorrow night to defend his NXT title. As he left, Brielle's car followed behind his not knowing that was hers he just went to his hotel for a night of sleep there in San Deigo as NXT's tapping was there the night after.
