AJ'S POV
I walked through the halls of the backstage lockers, hearing murmurs and whispers, and seeing glances thrown at me.

Oh boy, this sure reminds me of something.

Dolph walked up to me, looking at me in confusion.

"AJ, I- uh, I know you said you didn't like Punk like that but uh." He said, stuttering and looking around.

"Ok and? Spit it out already Ziggler." I said, getting annoyed at him and the rest of the locker room.

"Right, well." He said, before sighing.

"AJ, someone has uh, has evidence that PunkLee is real and-" He said, before I cut him off.

"Don't. Say. That. Ship. Name." I said, making my point evident. His eyes widened.

"Well- I don't know what else to call it." He said, awkwardly.

"Well, what's the whispering about this time, huh, Dolph?" I asked.

"Well, see for yourself." He said, pulling out his phone and showing me a video.

It showed a blank screen, I stared at it in confusion, not getting the big deal about a blank screen.

I was getting annoyed with each second that passed, I was about to look back up at Dolph but then a video popped up on the screen, grabbing my attention again.

On the screen I saw Paige and I, sitting at a table.

The video was from yesterday, and I knew it because we wore those outfits yesterday.

The video cut to Paige saying. "Aha! I knew it! PunkLee always wins!" And her fist going up in the air in victory. I stared at the screen shocked and flabbergasted.

"AJ? AJ?" Dolph said, trying to get me out of my thoughts.

"I- um, what?" I asked him, not really wanting to be here anymore.

"I'm sorry." He said.

"I know, but you're not the one that should be sorry- the person that recorded this should be!" I yelled, slightly angry.

He looked at me with wide eyes.

"AJ, calm down." He said.

But I had enough of this bullshit.

I grabbed the nearest thing near me and threw it, screaming.

"WHY? WHY ME? WHY ALWAYS ME?!" I screamed, tearing the locker room apart.

People were staring, but I didn't care, I grabbed the next thing I saw and threw it.

While I was throwing things around, the camera crew came over and recorded it.

"AJ, STOP." Dolph said, before grabbing me and pulling me out of the locker rooms.

The camera crew quickly followed behind.

Superstars were looking after us.

I was trying to get out of his grip, squirming around.

Once I finally got out of his grip, I slapped him, my anger getting to me.

He held his cheek, staring at me in shock.

"AJ!" I heard someone yell from behind me, I turned around and saw the guy I was slowly starting to catch feelings for.

Seeing his face calmed me down, I turned around again and looked back at Dolph.

"I-I'm so sorry Ziggy." I said, reaching for his face.
