Enchanted
(Credit to the owner of this gif.)
“All I can say is, I was enchanted to meet you.”
Pairing - Atticus Cogar/OC
Warning - Fluff, mentions of deathmatch wrestling
Atticus Cogar was making his way towards the ring, the crowd roaring for him as “Heartbeats” by KING 810 echoed throughout the arena! Suddenly, those crowd roars turned to boos when Atticus was caught off guard and thrown to the ground by the vicious clothesline to the back followed up with some ground and pound! He tried to fight back, but Rickey was too much for him. Atticus was taking a beating, and he had no backup because Rickey had laid out the rest of the 44OH! before he came out here! Rickey was stomping, punching and throwing Atticus around the ringside area like a ragdoll, laughing and chuckling at the negative reaction he was getting from the crowd.
Atticus was able to slide into the ring to get away from the heinous attack of RSP but only for a few minutes. RSP threw up the ring apron skirt and went digging around before he pulled out a table, sliding it into the ring. Once he got the table into the ring, he started to set it up. Atticus took advantage of this moment and tried to hammer away on Rickey, the crowd firmly behind him, but Rickey with a cheap shot to knock Atticus down. Rickey was about to powerbomb Atticus through a table when suddenly, Rickey's little sister, Y/N, jumped over the barricade and into the ring! She chop blocked the back of Rickey’s knee, breaking his hold on Atticus! Atticus rolled away while Rickey bent down, holding onto his knee.
Y/N listened to the chants of the crowd, looking over at Atticus who was recovering in the corner before looking back at her big brother who looked shocked and betrayed once he saw who was the one to attack him. He went to say something but Y/N slapped him across the face before dropping him to the mat with a DDT! Rickey rolled out of the ring, holding onto his face while the crowd erupted into a mix of cheers and continued chants for Y/N! She rushed over to Atticus to check on him as we faded away to a commercial break. After the segment, backstage, Atticus was furious. Atticus turned to her, his eyes blazing with anger. "What were you thinking?" he snapped. "You had no business getting involved in that. You could have gotten hurt!"
Rickey's little sister stood her ground, undaunted by Atticus's anger. "I couldn't just stand there and watch you get hurt anymore," she said. "I had to do something!"
Atticus softened a bit, his rage turning to confusion. "But why?" he asked. "Why would you do something like that for me?"
Rickey's little sister took a deep breath, gathering her courage. "Because I care about you," she said. "I've cared about you since the day Rickey brought you in and started training you. I've watched you grow, and I've seen how hard you work. I couldn't just sit back and watch you get hurt."
For once in his life, Atticus was taken aback. He looked at her for a moment, studying her face. He saw determination and bravery in her eyes, and he felt a pang of something he couldn't quite identify. For a moment, they stood there in silence, both of them unsure of what to say next. But then Atticus made a decision. He stepped closer to Rickey's little sister.
Atticus's expression softened slightly, but he was still skeptical. "You barely know anything about me other than what you’ve seen," he said, his voice quieter now. "Why would you risk your own safety for someone you barely know?"
Rickey's little sister took a deep breath. "Because I see something in you that I've never seen in anyone else," she said, her eyes locked on his. "You have a fire in your heart that burns brighter than anyone I've ever met. I know that you're going to do great things in this business, and I want to be there to support you every step of the way."
Atticus was silent for a moment, the weight of her words sinking in. He looked at her, really looked at her for the first time. He saw the tears in her eyes, the fierce determination in her expression, and the hope in her heart but he couldn’t bring himself to let her get closer. He stepped back and shook his head before he looked into her once determined, now turned sad, eyes. “You’ll turn out just like the others, Y/N. You’ll stand there and claim you support me but then when I let my guard down and actually let you in, you’ll put a knife in my back. I want to trust you…but I can’t.”
Before Y/N could even have the chance to respond, Atticus simply turned away from her and walked away. Leaving Y/N standing there, tears streaming down her face before she sunk down to the floor, bringing her knees up to her face as she sobbed. Gregory Iron and Eddy Only rushed over, sitting down beside her to comfort her. Eddy held her in a hug while Gregory tried his best to make light of the situation.
Later that week, it was announced that at the next show, Atticus Cogar and Rickey Shane Page would finally step into the ring to “settle their differences” but as we all know, in wrestling, nothing is ever truly one and done. Y/N knew this match would solve nothing, she knew no matter the result of the match, these two weren’t going to be satisfied and she also had a feeling Rickey was going to have something up his sleeve. She tried to plead with the company to let her be involved but they said for her safety, it was best she stay out of it. But of course, she wasn’t going to do what they told her.
The next month, the stage is set for the long awaited, highly anticipated match between Atticus and RSP. After many table bumps, light tubes shattering, skewers being embedded into foreheads and much more violence, Atticus Cogar defeated Rickey Shane Page in a grueling match, but he was attacked by Rickey in a fit of rage! Atticus was exhausted and caught off guard by the attack, unable to defend himself. Rickey was about to deliver a final blow…but Y/N ran down to the ring! She climbed onto the apron then onto the top rope before she jumped off and leaped onto Rickey's back, wrapping her arms around his neck in an attempt to choke him! Rickey struggled to shake her off, but she held on tight, refusing to let go.
Atticus, still dazed from the attack, watched in awe as Rickey's little sister fought to protect him. He saw the determination in her eyes, the fire in her heart, and he knew at that moment that she truly did care about him, more than he ever realized. Rickey suddenly got down to a knee, losing consciousness from the choke before he stopped moving completely and passed out. Rickey lay there, defeated, while his little sister stood over him. Atticus slowly got up, Atticus looked at her, she looked at him, Rickey's little sister took a deep breath. "I need you to know that I'm not like the others in your life," she said, her voice steady and unwavering. "I love you, Atticus, and I'll never betray you."
Atticus looked at her, his heart pounding. He felt a warmth spreading through his chest, a feeling he had never experienced before. He saw the sincerity in her eyes, the depth of her love, and he knew that he felt the same way. He knew she was telling the truth. Without a word, he stepped forward and took her into his arms, holding her tight. And as they stood there, wrapped up in each other's embrace, he knew that he had found someone special, someone who would always be there for him, no matter what.
"I love you too," he whispered into her ear. "And I promise, I'll never let you down."

A New Judgment Chapter 16: A New First Time and a Phone Call (Poly Judgment Day)
Smackdown April 21 2023
The members of the Judgment Day pull up to the venue where SmackDown is being tapped, Nessa in the backseat between Damian and Rhea, her head on Damian's shoulder glad they worked out their issues from the other day, having spent the previous day training and then lounging about Rhea’s house just enjoying a peaceful day.
“Remember we have to go to Pearce's office for a quick meeting with him and Hunter about the plans leading up to Backlash.” Finn reminds the group as he puts the car in park. The group besides Nessa groans hating going to these meetings because that means things changed.
“Come on, it can't be all that bad, let's get going. After the meeting, I have to go to makeup because I am out of my color-correcting kit and this needs to be covered before filming starts.” Nessa gestures to her neck and chomps her teeth playfully at Damian who leans over and kisses at her neck again.
“We can add more if you want Mariposa.” He offers the promise thick in his words and she knows they will, especially if she has her way later in the night. Nessa collects her thoughts and pushes against Damian to make him open the door which he does and he helps her out of the SUV. They wave to the fans as they make their way into the building, Finn and Damian carrying the girl's bags, Nessa holding hands with Rhea and Damian. They stop by their locker room saying hi to Asuka and Indi who is sharing with them for the night.
“Hi, thank you guys for coming in early to have a training session with me.” Nessa thanks the two women who smile at her.
“No problem, we don’t want you getting hurt out there, plus we want to see you actually wrestle at some point!” Indi responds with Asuka nodding along excitedly.
“You know you remind me of someone I can't place my finger on who…” Asuka points out, tapping her chin and cocking her head to the side.
The others in the room study Nessa and try to see what Asuka is talking about. “Well think about it while we are gone, we have a meeting with Adam that we are late, so lets goooo!” Finn herds the others out of the room flicking Nessa’s nose when she sticks her tongue out at him
__________________________________________________________________________
Once in Pearce's office, they all take seats. Rhea sits down in one of the chairs and pulls Dom onto her lap, Damian doing the same to Nessa, Finn leans against Damian's chair and crosses his arms. “Thank you for coming in early. I called you guys here to discuss a few changes happening in tonight's show. You will accompany each other to the ring as planned but we would like some PDA between you two,” Adam explains, gesturing to Nessa and Damian. Nessa nods in agreement, not seeing any problem. “We don’t care what but amp it up, the fans love you two.”
“There is also going to be another brawl ringside and we would like to know if you would get involved Nessa? Since we have to ask your permission per your contract.” He adds on after seeing their reactions to the first part, the tone in his voice making Nessa feel uneasy.
“Yes with one caveat, I get a tool from under the ring when the fighting starts. I don’t know a lot of moves and it would make sense seeing as we are the “bad” guys. How do you want it to go? I know the match is up in the air this time but what about the ringside fighting?” Nessa asks the important questions with all eyes in the room on her.
“I can’t sanction any extra tools this time but…”Adam goes to answer but Nessa cuts him off,
“But nothing Scrap Daddy, you want me to get physically involved that is the only way I will at this time. I’ll be careful and take care of the others. I was thinking of using a chair or a kendo stick on someone to defend Dom and then I can go fists with Zelina or something with Mami running interference with me.” Nessa throws out there daring the man to argue. Danika warned her about him. He sits back in his chair maintaining eye contact with Nessa, the other members of the Judgement Day look back and forth between them waiting to see how it turns out.
After a tense minute, he sighs and Nessa knows she has won the battle. “Fine, I’ll inform the others of what is going to happen. Go to your training and make sure you are ready for tonight and for the love of god practice your hitting to make sure you don’t accidentally injure an actual wrestler.”
“Hey I didn’t ask for this but I am putting my all into it and putting my body on the line. I was practically dragged here by one of your golden boys. I am a goddamn nurse and a damn good one. I know how to not hurt someone. I know I am lucky that I have a choice in the matter AND I have been a good sport about it and training my ass off every day. I may not be a “real” wrestler now but someday I might be. Who knows, hell, maybe someday I might take your job.” Nessa goes off the threat hanging in the air, her partners staring in shock.
The shock turns to confusion as Adam laughs, full out laughs and slaps his desk. “Hunter was right about you. You are going to be a great asset to the company.” Adam stands up and holds out his hand and Nessa looks at it like it is a snake ready to strike. “Oh honestly it’s not a trap and I’m not fake. I tell it how it is just like you do. We will get along great.” He tries to reassure the people in front of him. Nessa turns to look at the others who nod their heads. Nessa huffs and gets off Damian’s lap and stands up facing Adam and swipes her hair off of her shoulder before shaking his outstretched hand. Adams eyes widen momentarily and he clears his throat. “Actually, could you stay back a few minutes, Nessa? There are a few things I needed to discuss with you alone about your contract.” He asks, nodding towards the door silently telling the others to leave… which they don’t.
They only get up from their seats and stand up, Damian wrapping one arm around Nessa’s shoulder and pulling her to his chest. “Whatever you can say to her you can say in front of us. Isn’t that right, Mariposa?” Damian asks Nessa to back him up as he stares down Adam.
“Normally yes but I think I see what this is really about. Scrap Daddy, the Scrappiest of Daddies… it is not what it looks like. They are just a mountain of hickeys because we apparently can’t keep our hands and mouths to ourselves.” She explains elbowing Damians ribs as he snickered after realizing what happened. Nessa glances at Dom who pouts and rolls his eyes as he gets pulled into Rhea's chest where she starts stroking his head.
Adam sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose, breathing out heavy. “Go do your training and then straight to makeup and get that covered up as much as possible and please try to limit visible marks. We have a PG rating and would like to keep it that way.” He dismisses them and they file out of the room. Damian and Rhea burst out laughing while Dominik cracks a smile, the situation being funny.
“Two times this week, you guys really need to control yourselves.” Nessa points between Rhea and Damian, who laugh harder as they make their way to the ring. Once they get past the curtain at Gorilla and to the top of the ramp they see Zelina, Indi, and Asuka already there having a mock match. Nessa and the others head down and get in the ring, the other three women having stopped their match.
“Ok now stretch so you don’t get hurt.” Asuka orders going all business.
Nessa rolls her eyes but does as she is told. Once she is stretched and warmed up Zelina walks up to her. “Ok, you are good at taking bumps and throwing some punches. Today we will work on hits since we are fighting tonight. We are also going to teach you some takedowns…” Zelina informs and Nessa nods her head ready to learn. The members of the Judgment Day lounge around on the outskirts of the ring as Nessa trains and learns moves, all of them looking on with pride at how hard Nessa is working and how fast she is learning. Damian cheers as she successfully executes an arm drag on Asuka then a DDT on Zelina.
“Ok so you can’t powerhouse or actually lift any of us yet so like with the arm drag you have to use momentum to move us. Use it however you can, especially if you are in a non-determined match. You did excellent last week selling for Zelina but trust that your opponent will do the same for you. You have to trust even if there are legit feelings there.” Indi preaches as she maneuvers Nessa around the ring as an example.
“Alright I think we need to call it and get ready for the show tonight,” Finn calls out after checking the time seeing they were down there for more than an hour, teetering on two, the show starting in less than an hour at that point. The women in the ring stop, all of them out of breath in some way nodding in agreement and getting out of the ring. Nessa is the last out, standing on the apron. Damian steps over to her and grabs her by the waist and slowly lowers her to the ground where he kisses her forehead, then grabs her hand and leads her up the ramp, Rhea catching up to them and grabbing Nessa’s other hand, Dominik riding Finn’s back up the ramp and back to the locker room.
___________________________________________________________________________
Nessa returns to the locker room after a trip to hair and makeup, stomping her feet annoyed at all the questions and looks she got.
“Hey baby what’s wrong?” Rhea gets up from Damian's lap and goes over to where Nessa is leaning against the door rubbing her temples trying to fight off the headache forming. She jumps when she feels Rhea’s hand gently on her shoulder. “Hey, hey, I’m sorry I didn't mean to startle you. What’s going on Bunny? Are you ok?” Rhea asks, deeply concerned for the smaller woman in front of her, the others in the room paying close attention to the interaction.
Nessa sighs and answers, “Yeah, just everyone so worried and sweet. I wish I had that when I was actually in a dangerous situation. But I guess that is why he never brought me around and I wasn’t allowed to come to shows or live events. I wasn’t even allowed to watch so I didn’t.” Rhea rubs up and down Nessa’s arms catching the looks of her partners, Damian clenching his jaw and fist, Finn cracking his neck and Dom not looking surprised, just sad for Nessa and leaning against Finn’s shoulders.
Nessa looks up for the first time since entering the room and sees the looks on all their faces, her own face falling and letting out a little squeak realizing what she just said. She immediately begins stuttering trying to explain, “I…I…He….it…” She is near hyperventilating when Rhea just pulls her into her arms, resting a hand on Nessa’s head, the other one rubbing her back. After a few minutes Nessa’s breathing is back under control.
“You don’t have to explain further. You asked us to not do anything and we won’t now that we know why you were so adamant about us not doing anything.” Rhea soothes and gets confused why Nessa is shaking her head.
“I need to explain at least something, he isn’t on the main roster so he had more time to come see me. When we met he was doing independent circuits. He went to NXT in 2017. That distance and another factor is what gave me the strength to leave him. Though when I wouldn’t move with him…” Nessa trails off and tries to shake the memory from her head and she feels Rhea sigh.
“Well you are safe with us Bunny, you don’t have to tell us who but if you want you will always be with one of us. We won’t let anything happen to you, right guys?” Rhea promises, the men chiming in in agreement.
Nessa smiles and steps out of Rhea’s embrace. “Thanks, guys, that means a lot.” Nessa looks around the room and notices the absence of Asuka and Indi. “Where did they go?” She asks, confused. She thought they were sharing the locker room for the show.
“They went to the main locker room because they said ‘we don’t need to see the lovey eyes or god forbid you try to fuck in front of us’.” Damian explains, doing air quotes and laughing. Nessa blushes at the thought and steps towards Rhea again and hides her face against Rhea’s shoulder. “Ohhh that's something you like, duly noted Mariposa.” Damian smirks and Dominik smiles, well aware exhibitionism is a turn-on for Nessa. There is a glint in Rhea’s eyes as she meets Damian's gaze, the same smirk on her face.
“Bunny go and finish getting ready, we start the show off and it starts in like 30 minutes.” Rhea orders, turning Nessa around and slapping her ass making her yelp and stick her tongue out. Rhea cock her head and steps towards Nessa smirking and Nessa grabs her bag and runs to the bathroom giggling. Nessa exits a few minutes later sporting a Judgment Day tank top tucked into her black high waisted skinny jeans and a belt much like what Rhea wears when she doesn’t have a match. She twirls around as a chorus of whistles fills the room.
“Looking good Mamita!” Damian praises, grabbing her hand and spinning her around again looking her up and down appreciatively.
Nessa stops after the spin facing Damian and stands up on her toes and pulls him down to kiss her. “They want PDA, we can give them PDA!” Nessa smirks, the others smiling just the same enjoying the comfort Nessa feels with them.
_______________________________________________________________________
There are three quick knocks at their door signaling they need to get to Gorilla.
Nessa grabs Damian’s hand and Dom grabs her other hand, Rhea doing the same for Finn. They make their way to Gorilla, people whispering and giving them wary looks. More so than normal. Nessa notices first and squeezes Damian and Dom’s hands feeling uncomfortable as it seems everyone is focused on her. Mercifully they reach Gorilla and she sees that the LWO is absent. She doesn’t have the spoons to deal with more questions about what is currently covered on her neck, especially from Rey.
Dominik tugs her arm. “Are you ok Princesa?” Dominik asks.
Nessa glances up and gives a soft smile. “Yeah, Neshama Sheli (my soul), I'm just concerned about what people are thinking about us because of my neck. Everyone is jumping to conclusions; only a few people seem to believe the truth.” She explains and their music starts ending the conversation. Nessa releases Dominiks hand and moves to stand between Finn and Damian. The three of them head out to the top of the ramp through the fog blowing out. Nessa stands there crossing her arms and looking up at Damian as he flexes his arms out as the pyro goes off. They slowly make their way down the ramp, Finn talking to Nessa until they are about half way.
Damian grabs Nessa by the waist, wrapping his arms around it making her giggle and pulls her into a searing kiss. Nessa throws her arms around his neck and jumps wrapping her legs around his waist. Damian adjusts his grip on her, resting one hand on her ass, a smirk plastered on his face as they reach the bottom of the ramp. He pats her ass and gently sets her down, guiding her up the steel steps and follows her up, stepping on the lower rope and pulling the middle rope to give her easy access. She steps in the ring, followed by Damian who grabs her wrist and pulls her to the side of the ring where Finn is leaning against the ropes. Nessa matches Finns posture while Damian steps on to the ropes and does his poses before jumping down.
They pace around the ring for a moment until Rey Mysterio’s music comes on. Damian puts a firm hand on the small of Nessa’s back and guides her to the backside of the ring and helps her out of it until she is standing on the apron facing him, the ropes between them. “Kick his ass baby, make him pay!” She orders him. Damian nods and pulls her in by the back of the neck, smashing their lips together, Nessa is unable to breathe from the heat behind the kiss until she remembers they are on TV. She breaks the kiss and goes down the steps, her face flushed and trying to catch her breath, fanning herself with her hand.
She ignores Santos and Rey entering the ring, even when Rey comes towards that side of the ring and looks down at Nessa, her eyes are glued to Damian. Concern fills Rey’s eyes and he returns to his corner where he pokes his head out the ring and whispers something to Zelina who accompanied them out. She shakes her head and tells him no and that catches Nessas attention. Their conversation gets heated until Zelina finally agrees to whatever Rey says and gives Nessa a pitying look which makes a knot form in her stomach as the bell rings signaling the start of the match.
Finn starts it off trying to kick Rey who catches it and throws his foot down, throwing punches and pushing Finn back into the corner then Irish Whips him only for Finn to reverse out of it and throw Rey into the opposite corner, his back slamming into the turnbuckles.
“Get him, Finn!” Nessa calls out as Finn jumps and swings at Rey who moves out of the way. Finn’s chest bounces off of the turnbuckle and he turns still ready only to be met with Rey jumping and landing a hurricanrana. Nessa calls out and cheers when Finn lands hits and curses Rey when he makes a connection with Finn. Feeling the protectiveness come over her for her partner. Eventually Finn grabs Rey from the top of the mask, dragging him to their corner and giving the tag to Damian. Damian immediately kicks Rey in the chest knocking him to the ground and keeps on stomping on him per Nessa’s request before the match had started. He pauses to smirk at her, seeing her clapping and cheering him on.
Nessa bites her lip as Damian smacks Rey across the face and throws him into their corner and they play hot potato while tagging in and out just punishing Rey. The animosity between them is clearly on display for all to see. Nessa watches and giggles until Rey gets the upper hand and tags in Santos. She stresses while Santos gets the upper hand on Finn and knocks Damian off the apron. Nessa checks on Damian before helping him back to the apron just as Santos hits Finn in the corner. Damian jumps in the ring speeding for Santos who moves out of the way, making him hit the turnbuckles, Santos then moves, capitalizing on Damian, hitting him with a high knee as Finn recovers and goes to punch Santos who catches his hand.
Nessa curses as Santos uses Finn as leverage to kick Damian, this ending with Finn outside the ring and a double team on Damian who rolls out of the ring. With Nessa distracted trying to head towards her boyfriends Zelina takes the opportunity to do as Rey told her and grab Nessa by her hair and DDT her, stunning the young woman, red hair splayed out around her as she is rolled onto her back, Zelina sits on her chest, pulling Nessa’s purple bandana from her pocket and licking it and proceeding to wipe down Nessa’s neck revealing the litany of purple, green and yellow marks and handprint in various stages of healing.
Nessa’s eyes widen and she flings her arms up, successfully landing a punch to the bottom of Zelina’s chin forcing her to lose the grip she had onNessa who rolls partially making Zelina slide off. Nessa gets to her feet the same time as Zelina and throws another punch only for Zelina to catch her hand much like Santos did Finn. Zelina goes to whip Nessa into the barricade but Nessa is able to counter whipping Zelina into the barricade instead. Nessa is aware Zelina probably let her as way of an apology for going off script. Nessa goes to kick Zelina when she hears the Judgement Day’s theme announcing her men won their match. Nessa quickly gets in the ring as the ref raises Damian and Finn’s hands in victory only for Rey to get back in the ring and forcefully turn Nessa around and grab her chin to look at her neck.
Finn gently grabs Nessa and pulls her back as Damian steps in front of them and shoves Rey back. Nessa fully expects Damian to do more but is pleasantly surprised when he just turns to her, “Are you ok Mamita?” He asks and she nods and glares behind him where Rey is standing again with his arms crossed.
“Jefe come on we need to go!” Zelina calls out reminding him of their obligations.
He glares at Damian assuming it was him who marked up Nessa and points to him, “I will make you pay for what you are doing to her, you corrupt my son and now hurt mi hija. Count your days, Priest.” Rey threatens before getting out of the ring and pulling Zelina and Santos into a hug as he pulls them up the ramp. Damian and Finn protectively wrapped around Nessa.
Rey, Santos and Zelina are at the top of the ramp when Damian gets a microphone and wraps his arm back around Nessa, Finn doing the same making a Nessa sandwich. “This Monday, live from Chicago sold out on Monday Night Raw, the return of Bad Bunny,” Finn goes ooooh and giggles maniacally as Damian continues and Nessa smirks, looking up at Damian again, the marks on her neck partially visible from her attack earlier, ”You know Benito I really hope this visit goes differently from the last time it did for you.” Damian speaks into the mic, laughing deviously at the end, their music starting again as they get out of the ring and head up the lamp, Nessa sandwiched between them again.
___________________________________________________________________
Once backstage Rhea and Dom rush to them, all of them fussing over Nessa again who shrugs their hands off. “Im ok, though I am going to have to talk to Zelina to see what the fuck that was. Clearly Jefe had something to do with it. They argued before the start of the match about something to do with me.” “Clearly word got to him about your neck and he was worried. Though he shouldn’t be, he knows me and my past, he should know that I never...” Damian growls and Nessa pats his chest.
“I know this and those who truly know you know this. If they don’t, then fuck them. Go on back to the locker room while I go hunt down Zelina and see what the fuck happened. Then I have a feeling we are going to be called to Hunter's office.” Nessa tries to direct them but Hunter comes around the corner.
“And you would be correct Miss Klein, all of you, my office NOW” He nearly growls the last words and turns around, the members of the Judgment Day share looks as they follow Triple H to his office, Nessa hanging her head low. Once in the office Dominik closes the door and leans against it, Damian pulls Nessa to his chest and glares at Zelina and Rey who are accompanying the only two seats in front of Hunter’s desk.
“Would you mind telling me what in the actual hell happened out there, that is not the altercations that was supposed to happen. You,” He pointed to Zelina, “Revealed marks on Nessa’s neck which has opened us up to very uncomfortable conversations with the network, and she tells me you,” This time Hunter points at Rey, “Made her do it to see proof of some imagined slight or danger when she told you that it is consensual. Is this true?” He asks Rey and Zelina who nod their heads, not making eye contact. Looking like little kids.
“Nessa, are they consensual? And do you feel like you are in any danger?” Hunter asks point blank.
However before Nessa can answer, Rey decides to interject his own opinions, “She wouldn’t answer in front of them if they weren't consensual so that is a stu…” He starts but shuts up with the ferocity of a look that Hunter gives him.
“You don’t speak unless I ask you to.” He growls at the smaller man. “Now Nessa I can see you are comfortable with them, I know how things get carried away, just do me a favor and keep them covered. I’ll explain to the others that it is consensual just try to control yourselves.” He then turned his murderous gaze back to Rey, “This is on you, you wanted to bring her in for Dom, you had to know something like this would happen, now you two get out of my office. You know your fine Rey, Zelina you don’t get one this time, but go off script like that again and you will not like the consequences.” He dismisses the other two leaving only the Judgement Day. He pinches the bridge of his nose and just plops down into his chair.
“I am sorry we got carried away sir. We will do better and I will cover up any marks made before appearing on TV. It was and is 100% consensual and I am safe and happy.” Nessa apologizes.
Hunter huffs and shakes his head, “This isn’t your fault, the topic is a touchy one behind the scenes after recent years and we just want to make sure you are safe and happy. We have a zero tolerance.” He starts to explain but Damian scoffing makes him stop.
“Why is that funny Priest?’ Hunter asks, a little upset at the insinuation the scoff makes.
“Forgive me, sir, but the Zero Tolerance only applies to those that aren't the company darlings, I can name one person still employed that has allegations against them, and another owns the majority of the company and has to be contractually castrated.” He explains, kissing the top of Nessa’s head and swaying them back and forth.
“Name him then and we will investigate it.”
“Well JD McDonough, a woman came forward with pictures and said she wasn’t the only one.” Damian answers, glancing down when he hears her gasp and feels Nessa tense up. He gently turns her around so her head is against his chest and he is rubbing her back. Finn was immediately annoyed by Damian naming his friend not believing the allegations, but that annoyance and disbelief falls away when he sees Nessa’s reaction and his heart breaks for a multitude of reasons.
“We were not made aware of any other potential victims. Our investigation showed the allegations were flimsy at best but if there is someone else who can come forward and corroborate the allegations he will be duly released from the company.” Hunter promises and like the others notices a shift in the emotions of the room. Especially coming from Nessa. He watches how she cowers into Damian and how the others gravitate toward her like she is their center and he puts the pieces together grabbing his phone and sending messages out.
“Mi Vida are you ok?” Dominik asks and Nessa nods into Damians chest.
"Yeah I'm just sore and hungry and want to go back to the hotel as soon as possible." She covers for herself unsuccessfully though the others in the room play along.
“You are done here for the night, no interviews or Promos are needed so you can go back to the hotel and head to Fort Wayne first thing in the morning since you have to be at the live show and then on to Chicago for Raw." Hunter dismisses them and they file out of his office. Nessa breaks out of Damian’s hold and scurries over to Dom and grabs his hand, Dominik pulling her closer as they return to their locker room, trailing behind Damian, Rhea and Finn who are all close together whispering between themselves.They enter the locker room and spread out, gathering their bags. Dominik is ready first and stays glued to Nessa’s side in case she needs anything.
They all pause when Rhea clears her throat. “Bunny, I think you and Dom need to head to the hotel ahead of us. Get some space and grounding. I know today was rough and trying for you. Get some food with him and we will go get food for us to give you two some time. You clearly need it so don’t argue, Doll. Go ahead and we will be back soon ok? I only say this because we share the same room and don’t want you to be overwhelmed.” Rhea orders while making it sound like a suggestion but Nessa knows it is an order.
Nessa pouts and goes to argue the opposite but squeals and starts hitting Dom’s back as he throws her over his shoulder. “Dominik Oscar Gutierrez, you put me down right now!” She orders and wiggles trying to fight against his one armed grip as he has both of their bags in his other hand.
“Sorry Princesa but no, Mami said so, so that is what we are going to do.” Dominik apologizes but doesn’t put her down as he heads to the door, Damian holding it open for them. “Love you guys, see you back at the hotel.” Dominik calls out as he walks out the door, Nessa pouting still. Once down the hallway Dominik sets her down and grabs her hand. Nessa has burned out her frustration and is back to almost hugging herself with her free arm. “Mi Alma, what is going on in your head. What do you need?” Dom stops walking and stands in front of Nessa, resting the palm of his hand on her cheek and smiles softly as she leans into it.
“I just want to go back to the hotel and eat junk food and cuddle please.” Nessa bats her eyelashes and kisses Dominiks palm. Dominik in turn moves his hand to the back of her head and pulls her face closer and gently pecks her lips, nose and eyes making her blush and swat him away. “Dom stooop - ” Nessa whines, her blush getting deeper as Dom responds,
“No you deserve all the gentle kisses in the world and everything good in the world.” He pulls her close again and peppers kisses all over her face again. Eventually he stops kissing her when she stops whining and leads her out of the arena. The looks this time are different than earlier and Nessa feels relieved and also worried at how fast word spreads in the locker room.
___________________________________________________________________
Rhea, Damian, and Finn wait until they are sure Dominik and Nessa are out of earshot before they start discussing what they just discovered. “It’s him, isn’t it? JD McDonough?” Rhea thinks out loud, pacing the room and cracking her knuckles.
“It seems that way… Finn, baby, you better tell your boy to watch out because if I ever see him alone” Damian threatens and pops his neck.
Rhea sighs and goes over to Damian grabbing the back of his neck forcefully and looking him squarely in the eye. “Listen Luis, she asked we don’t so we won’t and you promised. Get yourself together man.” She reminds him and they glance at Finn who is sitting in a chair, his elbows on his knees and head in his hands.
“Finn?” Damian calls his name, making the man sniff and lift his head, tears swimming in his eyes.
“I’m sorry guys, I was one of the most vocal in his defense, swearing up and down that the allegations were false. I didn’t think he was capable of that. But seeing how Nes reacted at just hearing his name is … I regret ever taking up for him, he swore up and down it was consensual like with how you two marked up Nessa. That is not an excuse, nothing excuses that and I am sorry for the role I played.”
“We have all had questionable friends who were capable of things we couldn’t even think of that played on our emotions. It’s not your fault babe. Abusers are master manipulators and that's how they get away with it.” Damian claps a hand on Finn's shoulder, Rhea kneeling in front of Finn, her hand on his knee offering comfort.
"The thing to do now is to right the wrong. Come out and say you were wrong about it and apologize like you did with us. Before the situation can happen again. Apologize to his victims." Rhea advises and is confused when a look of horror crosses Finn's face.
"What, what is it, Finn?" Damian asks, getting worried even more.
"She had to have known about my defense of him. What did…what does she think of me?!" Finn asks, his eyes wide near a panic.
“Hey, Corazon, no don’t do that. Look at how many times I’ve fucked up already, hell just the other day and she always has forgiven me. This was before you knew her. She came into this relationship probably already knowing and still willingly entered it so she must know how you really feel about it. Don’t do that to yourself, if she has a problem she will tell us yeah.” Damian joins Rhea kneeling in front of Finn who after a few moments nods in agreement with Damian's last statement.
‘And if you feel so guilty about it when we get back if she is feeling up to it tell her this. Tell her how you feel and apologize for your role. She won’t and doesn’t hold it against you I can tell.” Rhea rubs his thigh soothingly as his breathing begins to return to normal.
“Good, now you two go get Hunter tell him we need another car for the night and I'll make sure we don’t leave anything behind.” Rhea orders, returning to her feet, Damian doing the same and holding his hand out to Finn and helping him to his feet only to yank Finn to his chest, wrapping his arms around the shorter man and kissing his forehead.
“All will be fine you will see Amor, now come on lets go before Mami gets mad at us,” Damian jokes, pulling Finn out the door with him, Rhea rolling her eyes as the remaining two of her lovers disappear from view, leaving the door cracked.
_____________________________________________________________________
Rhea hums to herself as she does one more pass around the room to make sure all their stuff is together. She jumps and whips around, fist closed ready to swing as someone clears their throat in the doorway. Rhea lowers her fist when she sees it is Rey, but stays on guard. Rey is holding his hands up in surrender to show he means no harm.
“Rhea, Sweetheart. I just wanted to check in on you too to make sure you are ok. If you need help getting out I can help you and Nessa and Dom just say the word. I can not stand by and let something that calls themselves a man lay hands on any woman.”
Rhea takes a step back and scoffs, rolling her eyes. “Rey, I don’t know what you think is going on but no one lays a hand on me that I don’t allow and not a single thing is done without any of our consent so get that out of your little head. I am not leaving any of my partners and I will not let you try to break us up. If you do that, it will be the biggest mistake of your life.” Rhea bends over slightly and glares at him, crossing her arms.
“You don’t have to lie and try to protect them, I know what guys like that are capable of. It isn’t your fault or Nessa’s. Just let me help you.” He offers again, this time taking a step towards Rhea who straightens and uncrosses her arms.
“Oscar, I will say this one last time. Neither Nessa or I are being abused by anyone in the group. Those marks on her neck are from me when we were making out in my kitchen after I returned from my Nonna’s funeral. Then we added more when we, as in Damian Dom and I, had sex the next day. Not that it is any of your business. Now leave us the fuck alone, you have meddled and messed up Nessa’s life enough. You’ve tried to derail Dom Dom’s life as well now go away.” Rhea orders stepping towards Rey who stands his ground staring up at the taller woman.
“Listen, Rhea.” Rey grabs one of Rhea’s wrists and she swings with her other hand, landing a punch with her full force straight to his temple knocking him out. Rhea’s head jerks up when she hears someone whistling. She watches as Finn and Damian step over Rey like he is just a pile of clothes left in their bedroom.
“What happened here?” Finn asks, swaggering over to where Rhea is standing shaking her hand, she had hit him perhaps a bit harder than she expected.
“He accused you two of abusing me and Nes and offered to get me, her and Dom out and tried to grab my wrist to make me listen to him.” She explains shrugging and stepping aside to let the boys grab the bags.
“Come on cariña, let's go eat then back to the hotel to probably find Dom and Nes naked.” He holds out his arm for Rhea to take.
She smiles and rolls her eyes, “I mean, I'm for it, them having sex means we can all start having sex... and we both know we want Nessa, preferably naked and under us in bed." Rhea comments, Finn and Damian making grunting noises of approval as they step over Rey and head out of the arena.
_______________________________________________________________________
Back at the hotel, Dominik holds Nessa’s hand as they head to their shared hotel room, a semi-comfortable silence between them. Neither knowing what to say but finding comfort in each other's presence. He raises their hands to his lips and places a gentle kiss on Nessa’s hand as they exit the elevator, Nessa leaning up against him walking down the hallway, Nessa’s head against his arm, her free hand gripping his wrist.
Dominik unlocks the door and steps back, letting go of Nessa’s hand and lets her into the room first. She immediately goes and jumps into one of the queen size beds in the room, snuggling under the mountain of covers that smells like a mix of all of them. Dominik goes to his main suitcase at the foot of the bed and digs out a share size pack of twizzlers and tosses it to Nessa who snatches it out of the air and hugs it to her chest for a moment before ripping the end open and pulling one out and biting down letting out a little moan of enjoyment. Dominik lets out a little laugh and gets in the bed with her, sliding under the covers, pulling her onto his lap and turning on the tv. Once they are settled in position Dominik reaches to try and grab himself a Twizzler only for Nessa to smack his hand away.
“Come on princesa I’m hungry and I bought these for you.” Dominik begs, the pout clear in his voice. Nessa huffs and holds up the bag for him to take a few out.
She finishes eating another Twizzler before she says anything. “Dominik?” She calls his name to get his attention and he answers with a hum, letting her know he is listening. “You all know now don’t you?” She asks and starts eating another Twizzler swinging it around between bites nervously.
“We have theories but there is no need to talk about them. You are away from him and safe with us no matter what baby. I would sooner throw myself off the roof of this building or stop wrestling than to see you hurt again.” He promises, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her closer to him, her back against his chest, nuzzling into her neck only for her to smack him in the head with one of the twizzlers. “Oww what is that for?” he lifts his head up again as she hits him again with the Twizzler.
“You are not allowed to unsubscribe from life nor quit your dream for me.” She wiggles off of his lap and she turns around and straddles him, the twizzlers discarded on the side of the bed.
“Nessa, Mi Amado. Wrestling may be something I have always wanted to do but that isn’t necessarily my dream, well my only dream. I have many dreams. One of which came true. You came back to me and now we are all together.” He rubs his nose against hers in a gentle eskimo kiss, reveling in her blush and continues, “I also have a dream of all of us having a big family with lots of kids, our kids joining the company in the future.” He admits, his eyes flickering about studying her expression and he relaxes seeing her not react negatively.
“I want those things too, Ducky, with all of us. I am all in like I said. I know it is fast but we just fit even with the hiccups we just fit and understand each other.” She admits, wrapping her arms around Dominiks neck.
“Though we don’t need to do all that right away, I still need to learn the others. We still have some time, years if need be for the IUDIi just don’t like it. That is why I have an appointment to get it out in the next few months. It's been causing pain.” She adds on, rambling, clearly getting anxious with the turn of the conversation. Dominik stops her rambling by pulling her in for a tender kiss, making Nessa take a sharp inhale of breath.
Dominik rests his forehead on hers, “Don’t worry about it then, we will bring up the discussion when you are ready. Do what is right for you, just tell us if you do go off of birth control so we can take care of that on our end unless we decide to throw caution to the wind.” He nuzzles into her neck.
“Ok, I will Mi Rey” Her response comes out more breathy than planned, caused by Dominik trailing his lips on her neck, pulling the collar of her shirt to the side, Nessa cranes her neck to give him better access. Letting him bite and suck on any spot he can get, leaving his own marks, this time in easier-to-cover spots. Nessa places her hand on Dominik’s chest and puts a little pressure there, making Dominik release from her neck and lean back, his eyes wide like he feared that he messed up again. She smiles softly at him and pulls her shirt over her head, tossing it somewhere off the bed and grabs the bottom of Dom’s shirt and tugs on it before slowly sliding it up his body and taking it off of him, the two of them not breaking eye contact as she tosses his shirt to the side as well.
She gently runs her hands up his chest until she wraps her arms around his neck again, playing with the hair at the base of his neck, giving it a little tug, making him groan and lean his head back. Nessa takes the opportunity to nibble and lick up and down his neck, careful to not leave any marks that his ring gear doesn’t cover. She takes his moans as encouragement, feeling him get hard under her, and kisses up his jaw, returning to his lips.
“Dom, I need you.” she mutters against his lips, determined. Dominik pulls her closer, deepening their kiss, both of them enjoying the taste of candy on each other's tongues. With a shaky hand, Dominik fumbles with unclasping her bra. Nessa giggles and leans back momentarily and undoes it, sliding it down her arms and tossing it aside. Dominik takes shaky shallow breaths, his hands resting on Nessa’s hips. Nervously he runs his hands up her sides, resting his forehead against hers, his hands gently cupping her breasts and sweetly kissing her lips. Nessa huffs and grabs the back of Dominik’s hands and squeezes them on top of her breasts.
“Fucking Christ Dominik, I won’t break, fucking touch me like you mean it!” She squeezes her hands again for emphasis. He lets go of her breast and pulls her face to him, molding their lips together, moving in unison, their tongues flicking against each other. Dominik wraps an arm around Nessa’s waist and goes to flip them, Nessa letting out a moan of pain making him sit back up and begin apologizing.
“Lo siento, sorry, sorry, sorry.” He starts lifting her arms and trying to find obvious signs of injury.
“If you are going to flip me over, one make sure my arms don’t get caught under our weight and two get the damn snacks off the bed so i don’t get stabbed by them.” She wiggles and grabs the bag of Twizzlers and sets them on the side table. Nessa then leans back up on her elbows looking at Dominik expectantly, “Do you want to continue this Dom because I very much do.” Nessa bites her lip and bats her eyelashes at him, making him let out another shaky breath. He nods his head and resumes his position over her, Nessa laying on her back again. He grabs her breasts more forceful this time, using the force she put on his hands earlier and attaches his mouth to her hard nipple, licking and nibbling at it making Nessa arch her back, doing the same to the other before biting and sucking his way down her chest and belly, giving extra attention there knowing it is a spot of insecurity for her. He pauses and smiles as he sees her whole body begin to flush, accentuating the marks he has left down her chest and abdomen. He takes the opportunity to slide down her pants and underwear, and sliding down his own, kicking them off.
Dominik spreads Nessa’s legs, kissing and biting up her thighs. Nessa grabs a handful of his hair, arching her back and grinding her pussy on his face when he licks up her slit and begins sucking and licking her clit and moaning as she pulls his hair while he pleasures her. “You taste so good Princesa” He praises and continues his attention on her clit. He readjusts his position and slides two fingers into her. Nessa grips the sheets, her breathing getting shallow as Dominik continues to tease her clit with his tongue.
“Dom… Don’t stop…please…” Nessa begs, breathless, writhing in pleasure as her orgasm builds and she tenses up, forgetting to breathe for a moment from the force of it, the flush running down her body. Dominik kisses back up her body giving her a little time to recover, until he is above her once again and gently pecks her lips.
“Are you ok Corazon? Do you want to continue?” He asks, looking into her eyes and gently stroking her face, all Nessa can see through the haze of her orgasm his complete adoration and love shining through his eyes at her. .
“Yes, please Dom!” Nessa reaches up and strokes his cheek and leans up kissing him and pulling him closer to her. Dominik kisses her neck as he gently enters her, his body shaking from nerves,
“I love you, Nessa!” He whispers, even his voice shaky, unsure how to still please her as he slowly thrusts in and out of her, her hand resting on the back of his neck.
“ I love you, too, Dom, I never stopped” She gasps out as Dominik speeds up a bit and keeps a steady pace. She bites her lip to stifle a moan, digging her nails into his shoulder and pulls on his hair making him groan and stop, his eyes squeezed shut. This makes Nessa stop and rest her palm on his cheek, trying to control her breathing, “Dom are you ok?” She asks worriedly and he swallows thickly and nods his head.
“I uh��� need a moment please” he asks, his eyes still closed. She studies his expression then it clicks, he is about to cum. She smirks to herself and pulls his hair and wiggles trying to make him cum, instead he pulls out. Nessa starts tickling his sides in revenge. His body convulses in involuntary laughter and he pulls away from her partially. Nessa sits up and tries to tackle him unsuccessfully as he just grabs her and pins her back onto the bed. She begins tickling him again so they start rolling about the bed trying to gain dominance, Nessa tickling him whenever he pins her, both laughing eventually ending with Dominik on his back.
“Ha, pinned ya” She gloats and kisses his nose, then lips. Lingering on his lips, both out of breath, their chests heaving.
“I let you pin me baby, I like it when you are on top.” He answers back, a slight smirk on his face, running his hand down Nessas back and resting on her ass and giving it a little squeeze.
Nessa is straddling him and can feel that he is still hard and starts grinding her cunt against it making Dom moan, her hands resting on his chest. She does this for only a minute until she decides to guide his cock back inside. Dominik grabs her hips and begins to help her movements, both of their faces scrunching up in pleasure. He continues to use one hand gripping her hip tightly to guide her and the other rubbing patterns on her clit trying to make her cum again before he does. Nessa bounces on his cock, steadying herself with her hands on his chest, their moans filling the room, Nessa unable to keep a steady pace as her pleasure builds. She tenses up and nearly collapses on top of him as her vision goes blurry, and she whimpers, her whole body shaking.
Dominik flips them over, this time smoothly and continues to fuck her, prolonging her orgasm while chasing his own, his own rhythm gets sloppy, the closer he gets. Nessa rakes her nails down his back sending him over the edge with a deep groan. Breathless he leans his forehead against Nessa’s, both of them out of breath and flushed. Dominik admires the pink hue to her cheeks and the sheen of sweat now adorning her body. He gently kisses her lips before gently pulling away from her and getting off the bed. He pauses when he hears a pitiful whine come from her.
“I’ll be right back Mi Vida, I’m going to get a washcloth to clean you up, then we are going to cuddle and watch more TV ok?” He asks, just trying to make sure she is ok. She nods her head in agreement and grabs a pillow hugging it to herself. Dominik comes back moments later with a warm, damp washcloth and gently cleans her up, kissing her thighs again as he does so. “I love you Nes, so very much I hope you know that and I am so glad you joined us in every way. It has made me, us so happy…” He tells her as he goes to discard the rag back in the bathroom. She waits until he gets back to respond. He gets into the bed again back to the position they were in before and pulls the blanket across their laps, handing her the bag of Twizzlers, taking one for himself, then kisses the back of her head, affectionately.
“I love you too Dom, so very much. And I can see myself loving the others too, we all fit together. Thank you.” She chomps down on the end of the Twizzler, swinging it around as she chews her bite. Dominik looks confused,
“Thank me for what Corazon? I should be thanking you for another chance that I don’t deserve.” He kisses her shoulder before resting his chin there, wrapping his arms around her, hugging her from behind. “Thank you for coming back, and letting me join in with you and the others.” She shrugs like it is the most obvious thing, like she’d be no where else, as she hands him another Twizzler. He mutters thanks as he takes it and continues to eat with her.
“So Hermosa, since you trust me enough to have sex, can we make that chocolate cake our next day off?” He asks, kissing up her neck, the smell of Twizzlers on his breath. She is almost distracted by the physical affection but the words sink in and she starts smacking his arm with the half-eaten Twizzler in her hand and swings back occasionally smacking his head hitting him with every word she says,
“We just had sex for the first time in a year and all you can think about is that damn chocolate cake?” Dominik leans back laughing and trying to avoid getting hit in the head by her dreaded Twizzler.
“It is sweet like you and you have so much joy baking. Plus I want to have my cake and eat it too.” He kisses her shoulder at the word cake and squeezes her hips, the closest he could get to her ass in that position. She crosses her arms and hmpfs in annoyance making Dominik laugh again. “I’m joking Princesa, whenever you feel ready for it I know it is a big deal so no rush,” He pulls her close again and she relaxes in his hold. They remain comfortable in the glow of one another, like there was never any tension between them.
_______________________________________________________________________
The remaining three members of the Judgement Day enter the hotel room, not as surprised to see a naked Dominik and Nessa sitting on one of the beds just watching TV as they could be, a blanket lazily thrown across their lap. Dominik upon hearing them enter the room pulls the blanket up to cover Nessa’s chest, knowing she is still uncomfortable with all out nudity in front of their entire group… for now.
“Oh come on, I get it but seriously?” Damian complains gesturing to the two of them, Finn breaks out cackling, jumping on to the other bed in the room, smiling at the pair of lovebirds.
“I mean, I'm for it, them having sex means we can all start having sex... and we both know we want Nessa, preferably naked and under us in bed.” Rhea rolls her eyes at the broody man in front of her. “Priest, I don’t know why you are acting surprised, you literally brought this up while we were eating.”
“All of us, not just you two or three” Finn admits to the room, smiling shyly at the group who looks at him with shock.
“What, we are building our relationship and she actually enjoys building the lego kits with me. She brings me peace” He explains making Nessa blush and pull the covers to her face to hide it, making the others in the room coo at how cute it is.
“Screw you guys I’m getting dressed” Nessa pouts and gets off the bed, keeping the blanket wrapped around her body as she stomps to her suitcase and then to the bathroom, the various occupants of the room calling out apologies and Damian saying,
“You don’t have to get dressed Mariposa, we like the way you look naked” making Nessa flip him off before slamming the bathroom door closed, thankful she grabbed her phone on the way in. She uses the quiet the little room offers and dials a familiar number.
“Hey Nes, I was worried you were never going to call. How are you?” Comes Aalyah’s voice, tinged with worry.
“No, I uh…, I’m fine.. I’m better than fine. There is just something I want to tell you…” Nessa trails off nervous and unsure how to word this or how she is going to take it.
“OMG YOU AND DOM ARE BACK TOGETHER!!!!” Aalyah yells into the phone making Nessa roll her eyes.
“Yes sort of, Aalyah I want to explain this but you have to stay calm and not do what you just did ok?” Nessa lays out what she needs getting an immediate agreement from the other side. Nessa takes a deep breath and explains,
“We are a polycule all of us, Rhea, Dom, Damian, Finn and myself we are all dating each other and it just i don’t know… feels right, like we all fit a particular need for the others. Jefe knows and doesn’t like it and keeps trying to break us up, now claiming I am being abused which is farthest from the truth. We just like to get a little rough in the bedroom. You should see what Dom looks like without clothes…” Nessa explains and shakes her head hearing gagging sounds from Aalyah.
“Ok first of all eww I don’t need to know that about my brother, second of all ok yeah that is fine love is love as long as you are safe and happy that is what I care about, that and giving me nieces and nephews. Ma would say the same. She is worried about you and feels awful…” Aalyah explains, knowing to not freak out and to accept the dynamic. She doesn’t understand it but she respects their choices. Nessa sighs and bites her lip, sitting down on the edge of the tub now dressed in one of Doms old shirts and a pair of shorts. There is a knock at the door.
“Bunny are you ok in there?” Comes Rheas voice from the other side of the door.
“Yeah Mami, just talking to someone on the phone, I’ll be out in a minute. Can you ask Dom to grab more snacks from his bag and a water?” She asks,
“Of course sweetheart.” Comes Rheas reply, Nessa waits a moment before continuing hearing Aalyah squeal in the background.
“Oh that is too cute, ok yeah I support that 100%” aalyah coos
"Oh hush you. Ive been meaning to call you and ma ive just been otherwise occupied…" nessa explains trailing off at the end.
"Oh you are fucking already i love it. Tell me how is damian in bed ooooh how is Rhea!" Aalyah gushes trying to get the tea
"Nah i don't kiss and tell thats for me. Could you uh patch ma through so i can tell her as well… i hope she takes it well" nessa frets
"Yeah of course. And nes mi hermana dont worry she loves you and will understand and support it. Its jefe with the problem. Give me a moment" aalyah comforts Nessa as she ties her mom into the call.
"Hey honey whats up is everything ok? I saw Nessas neck is bruised is she ok do you know? " Angie asks rapidly.
“Mami yes everything is ok, she is ok she is actually on the phone with us and wanted to talk to you” Aalyah answers her moms question. There is silence on the line for a moment until Angie softly calls out Nessa’s name, almost apprehensive.
“Yeah I’m here ma. I’m ready to hear you out and I have my own things to say after if thats ok?” Nessa asks biting her thumbnail
“Aye Mijita of course that is ok, and stop biting your nail its bad for you. I know you do that when nervous so stop there is nothing to be nervous about.” Angie orders, the concern clear in her voice. Nessa smiles slightly even though they can’t see it and lowers her hand to play with the hem of her shorts.
“It was never our intention to hurt you, we only wanted to see both of you happy like before. You wanted to join the company and Oscar pulled strings to make it happen but he shouldn’t have forced your hand. We should have kept you in the loop, I am truly sorry and I will never do anything like that to you again. You don’t deserve that. I love you like a daughter and would do anything for your safety and happiness.” Angie finishes letting out a shaky breath.
“Wow, that means a lot thank you ma, I am happy, the most happy I have been for a long time. This group we are all together like dating. I know it is against your values and culture but it isn’t against mine and we are happy so happy together. I have forgiven Dom and he has forgiven me and all five of us just … fit. Instincutally we fill roles that the others need. WE just want you to be happy for us and support us. But Jefe doesn’t and is actively trying to interfere and break us up. You saw what happened tonight. He went off script.” Nessa unloads barely breathing to the point she gasps at the end and starts bouncing her leg up and down with anxiety while she waits for Angies response.
“That is a lot to take in Mijita, while it is against our religion I will not hold it against you or Dom, I just want you two happy and safe and if you are that is fine with me I support your choices.” Angie carefully responds and Nessa lets out a sigh of relief, that is better than she could ask for, Angie and Aalyah both laugh at the other end at Nessa sighing in relief.
“What did you think we would disown Dom and cut you out completely? No. I’ve had that fight with Oscar before, I wont let it happen and he will come around eventually… just give him time” Angie soothes, Aalyah just chimes in in agreement.
“Which reminds me, does that mean the others are now my children in law as well? Am I getting grandchildren?” Angie asks, serious, wanting grandchildren while she is still young enough to play with them.
“Uh yeah if you want about the children in law, as for the grandchildren, I just joined like 2 weeks ago and I have an IUD so not at the moment. It has to be agreed upon by all of us” Nessa explains and prays Angie leaves it at that.
“Get the IUD out, you and dom were already trying. Ask them, tell them we need children” Aalyah pipes in,
“Yeah, I’ll call Dom tomorrow and tell him as much and I’ll find away to message the others. You owe me a grandchild,” Angie plans.
“Bye Ma, Aalyah.” Nessa ends the call not wanting to have that conversation. She leaves the bathroom to the others all squeezed into one queen sized bed.
“Come to bed Mariposa, it’s getting late” Damian orders waving her over. She shakes her head but does as she is told, climbing into the pile and getting pulled in the middle between Dominik and Damian.
“What was that call Hermosa?” Dominik asks and Nessa debates internally if she should tell him. Eventually she decides to be truthful,
“Aalyah and you mother, they were worried about me and I wanted to hear your mother out. I told them about us and this and they are happy for us and support us. And you will get a call from her tomorrow about grandkids. Sorry babe I can’t stop her once the bit is between her teeth. You all will be getting messages from her as well I’m sorry” She apologizes to the group getting in a comfortable position as the others groan. Nessa faces Dominik, Damian spooning her. She sees the look of relief on Dominiks face and smiles, Dominik returning the smile before they close their eyes to sleep.

AEW Double-or-Nothing Preview
AEW, a company that has been circling the drain for five years, has another premium live event tonight, so I'm going to spend my short time on earth dunking on a show I don't watch.
When Chris Jericho was in WWE, he was a legend and the first ever Undisputed Champion, but in AEW, he's the guy who had a mediocre WrestleMania 18 main event. A title with the prestigious lineage of the For the World Championship shouldn't be defended in a triple-threat match, against a guy with a generic "The Wrestler" gimmick and Hook, who will definitely be in WWE next month. This Shibata guy probably wins because he seems like Meltzer fave and that's the only person Tony Khan books for.
Ugh, Dean Ambrose has fallen so far that AEW had to make up yet another title just to give him something to do. He isn't even defending this made up belt against this guy I've never heard of! 🤣😂🤣 Anyway, this Takeshita guy definitely wins because champions always lose nontitle matches to build to rematches. Obvious. 🥱
Jeeze, will AEW please fire whoever is in their graphics department? They can't even be bothered to color in their Women's Champion! 🤣😂🤣 Anyway, Toni Storm isn't getting a reaction from the crowd, and Deeb, despite being a poor worker, is a natural babyface, so Tony should switch the title here because it is time to shake things up.
An absolute waste of natural superstar Roderick Strong who could be main eventing an important show like Main Event if he had stayed in WWE, yet here he is in the minor leagues babysitting a rookie who tattooed an attendance figure on his arm. I don't know, man. Will Ospreay just isn't developing as a star and really should have gone to NXT. Tony Khan probably puts the title on Ospreay here, even though he is completely not ready to be in that big of a spotlight. Expect a lot of blown spots. At least it will give AEW Botches plenty of content! 😂🤣😂
Why is this a premium-live event match?? These guys go out there and kill the ratings every week (according to the old guy podcast I follow), and and there is a absolutely no story. This is just a match happening to have a match with guys who get no reaction from the crowd. I know, I know, AEW is just indie wrestling workrate garbage, but a little sports entertainment wouldn't kill them. This is a good time to take a bathroom break without missing anything. Orange Cassidy probably wins, continuing Tony Khan shoving his pet projects down our throat
Trios match going to be so boring fr fr 🥱🥱
Another match with zero story?? Classic AEW!! 🤣😂🤣 Edge is an absolute legend who wrestled The Greatest Wrestling Match of All Time with Randy Orton, but he has done nothing since going to AEW. No feuds with his best friend. No being corrupted by Malakai's influence, possibly reverting him to being the evil Master Manipulator he used to be. Zero stakes, but AEW will probably paint over all of their botches with blood. I guess Edge wins, but it's really hard to care with nothing on the line.
Although I'm not watching this show, I'm still boycotting this match. The Young Bucks are the worst thing in wrestling. They can't work. They get zero reaction. And I think it's disgusting how they personally fired Cody Rhodes. Even worse, they are now featuring Jack Perry, a man who went up to famously good dude CM Punk and bullied Punk until the Bucks could personally fire him. Absolutely disgusting behavior, and their partner Kazuchika Okada is some indie loser no one has ever heard of. I feel so sorry for Daniel Bryan. He has to team with some goth kid trying to be Cora Jade and two guys who look like a diet version of The Revival. Let's just get through this mess so Bryan can get back to WWE and get his career back on track.
This match.
What a mess.
Mercedes Mone is a megastar, but her handling in AEW has been so, so bad.
Like, Mone is getting boos. She is your obvious babyface because she is the bigger star, and she is getting booed. Do you know how hard it is to get fans to turn like that?? Either Willow Nightingale has done a fantastic job getting people behind her (which, lol, I can't allow that possibility to fit into my worldview) or AEW is total garbage and will be dead by August. Expect an absolute heatless mess as the crowd hijacks this. Mercedes should win and be booked to be invincible, going over all of these AEW losers, but who knows what cocaine-addled Tony Khan will actually do?
How depressing is this?
Since winning the title last month, Swerve has barely been on the shows. If AEW were really behind him, he would be on practically every show, every week. He would be the focus in the opening segments. They would do countdown timers to his matches. He would be involved, even loosely, with the most important storylines like what is going on with The Elite. He would be facing adversity like having the stablemates he neglected turn on him.
But, no, I have seen none of that happen as I spend my Wednesday nights hate posting.
And, so, Swerve is defending his title against an absolutely heatless tag team wrestler, Christian Cage, who hasn't done anything of note since the TLC matches of the early 2000s. Why would anyone care? Swerve has no history with any members of Cage's Patriarchy, especially not Nick Wayne who got attacked in his own home and bloodied in his dead father's ring last year. Swerve and Cage never lost a high-profile tag team match at AEW's biggest show, which also happened to be the time Swerve turned on his friend AR Fox to side with Christian Cage which might matter if Swerve were doing a redemption arc. Just . . . I don't know. This is a perfect example of why no one in the r/AEWSucks subreddit cares about AEW.
So, there you have it, one more AEW premium live event that no one will care about or even watch. If you want to see some actually good wrestling with stories, you should check out yesterday's King and Queen of the Ring from Saudi Arabia and certainly not AEW Double or Nothing LIVE on PPV and Bleacher Report from Las Vegas, Nevada.

Trick or treat!!! would not be mad if you had some alpha4alpha candy for me 😊
ahhh!! sarah you recently asked me how danny and eddie celebrated eddie's two belts, and i didn't end up answering it because i was trying to decide exactly how it would go.
i think--you could do a thing where it's actually kind of a weird moment for them. not deliberately, both of them are still deeply committed to--aw, whatever this is. don't make me say it, danny, you know.
yeah, danny knows. :)
but it's kind of a weird time. eddie's been traveling kind of a lot--japan, the UK, a slew of indies. he's been busy--he's hot and danny knows more than anyone else that when you're hot, you grab it with both hands.
it's just kind of--he wishes, a little rattily, that they were both hot right now. danny's been pitching his little heart out to tony, whenever he gets a shot. everyone keeps assuring him that something's coming. he's been trying to set something up with pwg to defend their belt, but the scheduling has been such a pain in the ass. he hangs out with zay. he hangs out with matt and jeff. he waits for eddie to get home, and tries to remember how happy he is for eddie, which he is. no one deserves it more than eddie, and he'd deck anyone who tried to say otherwise.
it's just. it's a weird time.
eddie calls him on a friday night, and says, "yo, i'm landing tonight--where are you?"
"buffalo," danny says, and pauses his video game. he sits up on the couch, rubs the spot on his shoulder that always seems to get sore.
"what the hell are you doing in buffalo," eddie says. "what the hell. i'm getting into laguardia, man. you're really not here?"
"you didn't tell me when you were getting back," danny says indignantly. "why didn't you--"
"aww, nevermind," eddie says, "i already bought a ticket to buff. you gonna pick me up from the airport?"
"they got uber up here," danny says, but eddie doesn't look remotely worried a couple hours later when he emerges from the terminal. just saunters over to danny's car and slides in. asshole.
danny can never get over it--the way his whole body goes loose and easy when eddie's around. the way he feels like one of his mom's dumb little plants, listing towards the sunshine, towards eddie's warmth.
it's not like that with no one else. danny's an alpha, and so he's used to the low-level discomfort he feels when another alpha gets too close. wrestling's packed with alphas, less than you'd think, but more than you'd normally encounter on the street, and danny's grown up in those locker rooms. he knows how to ignore the prickling on the back of his neck that tells him that there's too many challengers! too close!
it's never been like that with eddie. not even once. every time danny gets a lungful of eddie's scent or eddie slides a heavy hand around his neck, danny's body goes liquid and hot. desperate for more. every time eddie's away, danny forgets exactly how easy he is for eddie.
eddie doesn't forget. "c'mere," he says, when they get inside the apartment. he hauls danny up close, gropes his ass. "miss me?"
danny nips a little at eddie's jaw. "didn't notice you were gone," he lies.
"i'll make you pay for that," eddie growls, herding him towards the bedroom. "i'm gonna take that out on your ass, pal."
"you promise?" danny says, and then that's the last coherent thing he says for a long time.
later, when eddie's knotted, warm and snug inside him and around him, borderline smothering him as he presses danny into the bed, danny sighs in satisfaction.
it's always like this for them--the physical means more than anything. neither of them are that good at talking, at saying what they really mean. especially when it's sappy or or affectionate or insecure or reassuring. he and eddie would rather bicker all day ever day then attempt some hideous awful conversation about their feelings.
but in bed--
eddie rubs his big hand over danny's thigh, then shifts it higher to help with the pressure inside. kisses danny's neck, and the top of his ear. danny wiggles a little bit, feeling as light as a helium balloon. like he could accidentally just fly away. eddie's pressed up as close as he could get, every part of him curled around danny. it shouldn't work--nothing about this should work. as alphas, danny should be bristling, too uncomfortable to let eddie this close. as--whatever, partners--it shouldn't be this easy to slide back together. the weird jaggedness of the last month should have made things awkward, maybe have to work to relearn each other.
for all their problems--and eddie's not the only one bringing baggage to this relationship--they've never been awkward in bed. they've never had to work at it. this morning danny had been moving around the apartment feeling discontent and weird. unsure about his life and the direction where he fit with eddie.
and now--eddie thick and pulsing inside him, his hand warm and tight on danny's stomach, keeping him close--he knows where he fits with eddie. knows how eddie fits with him.
#trick or treat meme#alpha4alpha#wrestling#my work#feel free to keep sending me trick or treat requests!!!!

My latest graphic in support of AJ Lee to include her in the conversation regarding the WWE Hall Of Fame! There's so many deserving women and AJ Lee is definitely one of them. AJ saved the Divas division, shattered glass ceilings and broke down doors and here's a refresher about how she did that in her WWE career and beyond: 🕷️ - Gave tomboys/alt-folk representation like Lita did before her 🕷️ - Was part of main event storylines, segments and matches 🕷️ - Was the first woman to defend a women's title at WrestleMania since 2007 and became the first and only woman to defend the Divas title at WM. She's 2-0 at WM and appeared at WM every year since her main roster debut 🕷️ - Was the first woman since Lita & Trish Stratus to get merchandise due to her popularity and how hard she had worked 🕷️ - Wrestled amazing matches against women like Kaitlyn, Paige, Nikki Bella, Brie Bella, Naomi, Natalya etc 🕷️ - Proved she's the best woman WWE has ever had on the mic and a master character worker/storyteller 🕷️ - Became a 2x Diva of the Year and 3x (and best) WWE Divas Champion 🕷️ - Advocated for the women in WWE in regards to fair wages and TV time, not caring if she got in trouble 🕷️ - Inspiring women like Bayley, Cora Jade, Roxanne Perez, Indi Hartwell etc to wrestle or keep working hard if they were already training 🕷️ - Was a leading figure in the Women's Revolution in WWE and left the women's division better than she found it 🕷️ - By writing her #CrazyIsMySuperpower book she used her platform to spread mental health awareness and became a light to those struggling That's one badass legacy. AJ deserves her flowers and to be celebrated and honoured for her accomplishments. Btw, I'm not saying she should or will get inducted next. If you think other women should be inducted before her and are more deserving, okay, but AJ is my fave and I want to see her inducted at some point this decade. I just wanna show support, so I hope everyone likes this graphic and the two alternative colourway versions 🖤🕷️🩷. I love AJ Lee so much and I'm so proud to celebrate her and her legacy. 🥰👑🐐 🖤🕷️💛

Zosan Wrestling AU Part 2
Will turn this into a fanfic later.
-So the Ministry of Darkness storyline begins. During this time, it becomes public knowledge that Sanji and Zoro secretly got married at Las Vegas
- The marriage is both in and out of kayfabe. They snuck off to Las Vegas on vacation together and got married at a wedding chapel.
- What makes this shocking is the fact that they are both 18 as of the time of marriage
- The rest of the roster supported the relationship and marriage and defended both of them behind the scenes
- Judge punished both of them by separating them.
- Zoro gets humiliating angles and bad matchups that eventually led to him getting injured so badly he went off air for months
- Sanji is beaten and tortured by multiple heels. His siblings turn on him and bully him. Judge then reveals himself to be the higher power just so he can screw Eren out of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and also he got petty over Sanji’s marriage to Zoro and sacrificed Sanji to a black marriage to Blackbeard who tortured Sanji to the point of going insane. Eren saved him but Sanji has a mental breakdown that leads to him leaving the company for a while
- Eventually Zoro returns and openly challenged Judge to a match as revenge for the stunt he pulled months prior.
- Judge then adds a stipulation, if Zoro loses that his marriage to Sanji gets annulled but if he loses, he leaves the company
- The match takes place at their next PPV. Sanji shows up at ringside and watches in horror as his dad beats the crap out of Zoro
- Angered, Sanji steps in, grabs a sledge hammer and hits his dad hard in the back. Zoro then Pedigrees Judge and wins the match
- Zoro is stunned to see Sanji yet Sanji smiles and kisses Zoro in front of everyone, confirming both their real life and kayfabe marriage. This is also the beginning of Zoro’s reign of terror and Sanji’s heel turn
- The next day after that match, Judge calls Zoro out for manipulating Sanji only for Sanji to walk out using Zoro’s theme. Compared to the sweet Sanji everyone once knew, this new Sanji hit different. He was a lot more confident and sexual plus he wore a pair of jeans that showed off his most famous asset, his ass. Something that made the fanboys happy
- He gets in the ring and dares his dad to hit him after all he had been doing that for years. He tears the old man to shreds for ruining his life with the black marriage and the pain and torture he made him go through. This segment was the birth of Sanji’s now legendary mic skills because as a heel, Sanji does not hold back.
- The fans were happy to see Sanji do more and found his scathing pipe bomb of sorts satisfying
- He told the old man that he does not regret his marriage and that he is no longer his little boy anymore. Mic drop
- The next couple weeks, Zoro’s reign of terror begins. He first beats Eren to become the WWE World Heavyweight Champion and terrorizes the entire locker room with Sanji by his side
- Sanji starts showing off his body and quickly becomes the most popular Vinsmoke as he is considered a lot more sympathetic and nicer compared to the rest of the family
- A lot of the people on the roster find Sanji appealing and openly flirt with him which is enough to piss Zoro off
- Judge comes back and proceeds to wreck havoc and destroys the Roronoas leading to a rematch between Zoro and Judge which Zoro loses and thus ending their marriage. This also happens in real life and that affects Sanji’s relationship with Judge leading to Sanji leaving the company and going to the Indy scene where he starts working his way up and becoming a far better in-ring talent compared to when he was in the company. He starts wrestling with a variety of different wrestling companies and eventually he retires after working with New Japan
- Sanji exposes his family for who they truly are on Aizen’s podcast and tells the world how they had been treating him behind the scenes especially his dad and also speaks the truth about his marriage to Zoro and says that they are still technically married but were forced to live separately thanks to his dad’s interference and even read a scathing text from his dad regarding the marriage and his sexuality. That led him to leave the company
- Zoro also leaves around the same time that Sanji does and goes to rival company TNA where he instantly becomes a top star
- Zoro and Sanji would not speak or see each other until 10 years down the road.
- Zoro meets Sanji at the parking lot of a shopping mall and the two begin to speak to each other again and rekindled their romance and soon get remarried and later adopt two kids
- Ichiji then contacts the Roronoas and tells them about a sick angle he had cooked up and the two decide to return
- Sanji and Zoro make a comeback on Raw as Ichiji and Niji had taken over WCW and announces Reiju and Yonji as ECW’s new owner much to the shock of everyone
-The couple align with Judge for their own personal reasons
- Sanji steps up to the plate as an in-ring performer. Unlike the rest of the family, he brings some much-needed sex appeal and grit to the role and relishes every moment of it
- Zoro meanwhile plays the role of the badass with a lot of charisma and one hell of a foul mouth and buries peole on the mic every single day
- Reiju and Yonji proceeds to put the WWE faction of the company through hell and subjects them to a series of brutal matches and other forms of humiliating situations
- Sanji does get his comeuppance occasionally as expected for heels but he also gives his dad enough hell. Yes, the Prince has not forgotten what his family put him and Zoro and always reminds them of that
- Sanji’s mic skills have improved so much that he can go toe to toe with his family as evidenced during one segment where he buries the rest of the Vinsmoke family on the mic. During said segment, he gives his siblings plus father very hot bitch slaps that shocked everyone
- Unlike his siblings he is not that loyal to his dad and bitches at him openly and only hangs around his dad for his own nefarious purposes which work out in his favor
- Sanji is then allowed to step into the rings and compared to before, he is now a legit threat and can kick anyone’s ass. Zoro finds that so sexy and gives him some advice on how to get better
- Doflamingo or Doffy as everyone calls him affectionately serves as his mentor and teaches him more stuff as well
- Sanji is the only Vinsmoke that has proper wrestling training as the rest of them work best as managers who can scrap occasionally.
- Sanji loves being a heel
- Zoro comes from a well known wrestling family that hails from Japan and his parents are both wrestlers and are proud of their son and love Sanji a lot and consider him their son. Zoro’s siblings love the Vinsmokes and marvel at their work
- Zoro’s most prominent rivals are Eren Yeager, Grimmjow, Obito, Blackbeard, Aizen, Sukuna and Kenshin. The Vinsmokes count as well. Yes including Sanji too because every once in a while the competitive spirit in both of them comes out to play. Oh and he cheated on Sanji a few times
- Sanji’s archnemesis depending on the storyline are his family especially his dad, Nami, Eren, Blackbeard (because of the Black Wedding), Corazen, Doflamingo and Kaguya (she almost got Sanji killed).Zoro counts as well because Zoro cheated on him a few times and Sanji being the vindictive spirit that he is was having none of that
- Pray Sanji has no heels on. He will smack your face with it
- Sanji gives the most brutal bitch slaps and has dished these out loads of times. His dad dreads segments with him knowing full well that Sanji will not only give him the slap from hell but he can lose his shit and beat his ass there

June 21st 2024 Friday Night Smackdown photos + thoughts
I've been so excited for this show! Too bad it was so hot because by the end I was pretty sweaty but overall it was such a good show omfg
Including some photos but they all came out like ass bc my phone is so old and I was more concerned with being in the moment.
We got there a bit late and were still in the merch line when the show started. When we finally found our seats it was nearly 7pm and Tozawa's Speed title match was already ending. I forgot who he was up against tbh.
Punk opened up the show of course and gave a really good promo about Chicago and his rivalry with Drew. Everyone was eating it up. Personally I have a love/hate relationship with Punk so I still found it entertaining but wasn't cheering for him exactly. he mocked Drew and I've been calling it since Clash and since Punk announced he was gonna attend this Smackdown that I believed Drew was gonna show up and get revenge, just didn't know when. Paul Heyman interrupts Punk's promo to warn him to leave bc even though he's off limits to the Bloodline that they wouldn't be afraid to go after him. And then Paul begs Punk to take him with him :'( Poor man needs a break. They had a long hug. it was really hard to hear what paul was saying most of the time because of how loud the 'we want roman' and 'fuck you solo' chants were. solo interrupted the promo and the boos got so freaking loud i didn't hear a word of what he said. when the bloodline tried advancing on punk we saw cody running out from behind the front row to help punk and everyone went nuts.
(the groups of guys behind and beside me had the funniest commentary running all through the show to the point that sometimes i either couldn't hear or pay attention to what was going on in the ring. also, the sound at the Allstate Arena is absolute TRASH and sometimes you just couldn't hear a word that was being said when backstage promos were being shot so everyone just sat in annoyed silence until the volume was finally raised.)
i'm not gonna go over every single thing in the 'episode' that happened bc that would make this way too long and it's really late so i'm just writing about highlights
Bianca vs. Michin vs. Chelsea Green for Money in the Bank was super fun. Everyone was cheering for Bianca and Chelsea mostly but the crowd definitely popped when Chelsea stole the pin. I love her and really hoped she would get Queen of the Ring but I'm happy with this win and happy with Nia as Queen. Chelsea imo is amazing to watch bc she's doing amazing character work as the self-centered/egotistic/entitled/hot and bratty "spicy margarita" character she is. She's just so damn funny and I'm glad we get to see more of her.
All the Bloodline stuff--yet another member has joined the chat. Tbh i really don't care that much about the Bloodline and never have but at this point I'm cheering for Roman to come back along with everyone bc I don't think Solo Sikoa is all that impressive yet. Idk. He may grow on me. But every time Solo or Tama Tonga were out everyone started booing or shouting 'we want Roman'. Which says plenty. We also got to see a lot of Randy and KO tonight which was really great bc i love them and they're truly out there being the defenders of Smackdown any time the Bloodline pulls their cheating bs. The guys behind me were calling Solo "Temu Roman" which was hilarious. Jacob debuting today looked rad as hell and already a huge threat (possibly a greater one than Solo imo) and apparently he's a big deal in indie wrestling so I'm interested in seeing what he brings to the table.
Bayley was on screen for like ten seconds :(
Andrade was great but for some reason I don't really connect with him so I end up sort of tuning out whenever he's on. I feel bad about it but idk, I feel like he doesn't have a truly distinctive character yet that would actually make me interested in him but all his looks are nice at least.
Randy vs. Carmelo vs. Tama Tonga:
Great match. Melo also taking that win was unexpected but considering he's had mostly losses since his debut this is a good thing. Plus I got a (BAD) photo of Randy doing The Thing before the match and I think that's neat.
(every time i see the MITB briefcases i quietly sing to myself "I got money in the BAYank" from that T-Pain song)
also got this hilarious pic of Randy who looks like a lion pouncing on Mello who looks like a frightened gazelle running away lol
for possibly my favorite part of the night:
MY MANS GOT HIS VENGEANCE.
when this happened in the middle of Grayson Waller's promo (can we talk about how GOOD that shot was??? with the garage door pulling up to do the reveal??) everyone lost their shit and started booing Drew. I was grinning ear to ear bc i fucking CALLED IT. Though i'd hoped we'd have actually gotten to see it happen and not only the aftermath. this is a very shit pic but drew + the cameraperson walked all the way from backstage to the entry and drew just fucking tossed Punk off his shoulders like a sack of potatoes. it was hot. it was wrong and it was wild. the people of chicago cried out in absolute outrage and the boos rained down. look at your god now, i would have said if i had the courage (and lung capacity) he is a mortal like us, he brought this on himself, and he ain't shit.
i was too busy cheering to notice drew taking punk's bracelet? watch? idk. it looked shiny and silver. and then he left without a word but backstage argued with Nick Aldis and others before storming off. absolute cinema. everyone was still booing and i raised my plastic margarita jar in a toast to my beloved Scotsman.
(i'd really been hoping to hear his music live again tho)
at one point at the end of a match i sprang out of my seat and ran to the bathroom because i believed we were on a commercial break. commercials were playing on the screens, after all. i had literally just started washing my hands when i heard ~~L. A. KNIGHT~~ and then the music and i started swearing because i missed his entrance :( i was so annoyed lmao. (I was wearing black lipstick and the Judgement Day spiked vest and when i walked in a woman exiting at the same time saw me and said "Mami!" and it was great lol) (there were a lot of signs for rhea tonight btw we miss her!!!) anyway i got back to my seat while Knight was still in the ring but Logan Paul had just shown up and knocked him out and that sucked lmao for some reason I was sure they were actually going to fight tonight?? guess i was wrong. the guys next to me were cheering for logan, no shame do what you want but bleghhhhh
Cody did two appearances. first when he came out in his corporate attire and then again for his match with Solo. everyone sang his theme with gusto, and it was a pleasure to actually know the words this time. the pyro was WILD. and imo there was too much fog coming from it to the point the arena got noticeably hotter after the pyro went off. i was wearing a mesh shirt and i was still pretty sweaty. everyone did the WOAH. i think cody was wearing his Mania fit so it was really cool to see it again; his costumes are the best in the WWE rn and no one else comes close. at least not in the men's division. the match itself was kinda disappointing with how quickly it was disqualified bc of the bloodline's bs. not that i expected there to be a title drop or anything then and there but it all happened so quickly and i was so annoyed that when jacob came out i was sort of checked out. obvs i wondered who he was but there was no name card on the screens or anything so i was lost until i checked the subreddit later. cody got his ass beat and even tho randy and KO tried to help the bloodline still won and ended the episode and everyone booed them.
was it good tv though? absolutely. i feel lucky to have been there and seen it all live. this is only my second live WWE show and i'm hooked. i can't wait to watch the episode and hear the commentary.
after the cameras stopped rolling The Awesome Truth came out and everyone fucking lit up when Mix and R Truth came out singing their song and everyone was super into it, screaming 'WHAT'S UP?' back to Truth. tbh after the way the main event match went it was a perfect pick me up to end the night and it got our energy back up immediately. then the Judgement Day came out and the boos came out again for Dominik and JD (but mostly Dom). i was there in my dorky lil spiked vest cheering my babies on. it was a great fucking match, super entertaining and they were absolutely feeling the energy. Miz and Dom were having a contest throughout trying to get the loudest crowd response and Miz was raising his arms getting us to build up to it and then Dom tried getting us on his side but when we didn't or just booed him he more or less flipped us off without actually giving the bird lol. he also took a bottle of Prime and tasted it, only to spit it back out in disgust which actually earned him a few cheers and several shouts of "fuck Prime!!" i may have seen it from the wrong angle but it did also look like he wiped the bottle on his butt before tossing it away. R Truth did the five knuckle shuffle and everyone got hyped and screamed the you can't see me thing and then he did it again with Miz and then they did their tag team finisher. idk the name for it but it's the dancey in sync move they do. it's adorable and i love them so much. but back to the match, all of them were fantastic and of course Awesome Truth won, but at one point when it was quiet enough i yelled out "YOU SHOULD'VE LET R-TRUTH JOIN THE JUDGEMENT DAY" and a few people laughed which felt really good lmao.
and after the match ended and everyone was clapping, Miz asked for a mic and told us (and this is very paraphrased and relying on my memory) that he 'doesn't get to do this often' and he isn't used to being cheered so much so this was really great and he was thankful to chicago for that. we cheered extra loud for that and then they left and it was over.
i'm still newish to the wwe universe but i know Miz was a world champ not that long ago. i haven't seen much of that run and i always thought he was a very likable character for all his faults so hearing that he wasn't used to being cheered broke my heart a little bc i like him a lot.
anyway it was amazing overall and i really hope they come back again soon. when i went to RAW in march they gave us all a promo code for early access tickets for this show, but this time there wasn't one, to my knowledge.
after tonight i now have a cody rhodes shirt, a deeper love for wrestling, and a new friendship bracelet. i have a ton that i made for myself a while back and a couple given by friends/family. i wore them all today and after the show while waiting for my brother near the merch line a woman came up to me and asked if i wanted to swap bracelets. i was like :o i didn't know people did that here!! and she said a few do, that she'd given a couple away already and luckily i'd just made an 'omg it's cody rhodes' and a rhea ripley one the night before so i happily gave her the rhea one and she gave me a 'mami's always on top' bracelet in return and just like the Judgement Day bracelet my dear @rogueimperator got me for my birthday, i will treasure them forever <3 i should have asked for her name tbh but thank you kind stranger! now i need to make more for next time :)
a lot of people were also very sweet about my goth look for the night--i was trying to channel Rhea for sure lol but my black lipstick was rubbing off everywhere and i was so sweaty because of the vest and boots lol--not a good choice for a 90 degree day but we're all doing our part to hasten Rhea's hasty return, right??? a bit of sweat is no problem in the long run.
#a very long and post about live pro wrestling lmao#leigh speaks#leigh talks wrasslin#wwe#tbh today was the most makeup i've worn in a loooong time so it felt weird putting it on. and i am the least experienced at eye shadow#but i TRIED lol#friday night smackdown#the brainrot over drew and punk continues.....!#also to the absolute shitwaffle who got mad that we merged in front of them with plenty of space and decided to#AGGRESSIVELY brake check us twice and nearly made us crash the second time: go fuck yourself with a cactus#i got your license plate number bitch and we reported you

All Out preview
Swerve Strickland vs. Adam Page - This is billed as a lights out steel cage match. So a metal frame will be set up around the ring to surround it with chain link fencing. The only way to win the match will be by pinfall or submission--other than that, anything goes. The "lights out" part just refers to an old tradition where they'd briefly turn out the lights to mark the "official" end of the show, and then do an "unsanctioned" match where the promotion responsible for what the wrestlers do to one another. (Also, the match won't count on AEW's win-loss records, so the loser often tries to act like it didn't happen, which makes it hard for this type of match to really settle anything.)
These two began feuding on September 6, 2023. I was going to recap the entire violent history of the feud, but in the end it's real real simple. On October 25, Strickland broke into Page's house, and cut a promo while standing in front of the crib of Page's infant son. Earlier this week, Swerve announced he had achieved his lifelong dream of buying his childhood home, so Page broke into the still-vacant house and set it on fire. They hate each other, folks, they really hate each other!
This will be the fourth time these two have met one-on-one; Swerve currently leads the series at 2-0-1. Page has never been able top beat Strickland, who has never been able to win without interference. Originally Hangman was the babyface and Swerve was obviously the heel, but in February they did a double turn on the premise that Swerve is cool as hell and Page is a sore loser. After that, Strickland enjoyed great success as a world champion while Hangman fell into frustration, obsession, and rage.
So I think we all know these two are going to go fucking sickhouse on each other, right? Like, the Texas death match last year was super epic, and they have to find a way to top that. I was sorry I didn't get to see that one in person, but now they're running it back and I have a ticket and I'm so excited. I haven't even thought about who should win or lose, because I'm too busy wondering if they'll try to use fire during the match. The real winners are the fans sickos!
Bryan Danielson vs. Jack Perry - Perry is challenging for the AEW men's world title, but his AEW TNT championship is not at stake. Danielson vowed to never wrestle again unless he captured the world title on August 25. Now that he has it, he's still planning to retire from full-time competition, but not until he loses the belt. In effect, his career is on the line yet again in this match.
Whoever prevails here will presumably go on to defend against Darby Allin, who has a title shot scheduled for September 25. The x-factor in the world title picture, of course, is Christian Cage, who has a contract for a title shot whenever he chooses. In theory Cage could run in right after this match, sneak-attack the winner, and exercise his contract right then and there. I don't expect that to happen, but the threat of it will be looming for the foreseeable future.
I don't really see Bryan losing the title this quickly, unless his neck is really bad and he needs surgery imminently. And if that was the case, I don't think AEW would pick Perry to get the rub of taking his title and retiring him. It'd be an exciting upset, so I wouldn't mind if it happened. But my prediction is that this just a basic win for Danielson on his way to more competitive challengers.
Will Ospreay vs. PAC - Pac earned a shot at the AEW international title on July 10, but he ended up having to wait for Ospreay to lose the title to MJF and win it back at Wembley Stadium. This whole matchup is about two British guys and how they both came up through the British indies and how Ospreay's British peers said he'd never be as good as Pac. And yet, instead of doing the match in London, we're doing it in a real city, Chicago Hoffman Estates. Hope you limeys enjoy watching this total banger at 2am over smack barm pea wet. I'm sure Ospreay will retain and celebrate with a delicious slice of Lou Malnati's.
MJF vs. Daniel Garcia - On July 3, MJF viciously attacked Garcia with a tombstone piledriver off the middle rope, ending a year-long run as an unlikely but surprisingly effective babyface. Garcia sat out selling terrible injuries until August 25, when he returned to cost Max the win against Ospreay at Wembley. Ospreay won the match by finally using the dreaded "tiger driver '91," which essentially dropped Max on the back of his own neck. So in effect both guys are looking for revenge after sustaining severe (fake!) neck injuries.
It feels like big things are in store for Garcia, and I think he absolutely needs to get at least one with out of this feud. I don't necessarily think the win has to be in this match (although I would like that to happen). Something tells me nothing will be settled here, so my prediction is they'll either brawl until the match is thrown out, or Max will get a cheap win and run for the hills.
Willow Nightingale vs. Kris Statlander - Nightingale is the CMLL women's world champion, but the title is not on the line, apparently because CMLL would not sanction the rules Willow chose. She earned the right to name the stipulations on August 25, and decided on a Chicago street fight. This just means the match can't end by disqualification or count-out, so the wrestlers can brawl all over the place with whatever weapons they can get their hands on.
Kris turned on Willow back in April, which feels like it was so long ago I almost forgot they had ever been friends in the first place. I would be very happy if this would end the feud so both ladies could move on to new business. As for the match, the AEW women's roster appears to relish opportunities to do deathmatch spots, so I'm sure these two will pull out all the stops (although being on the same show as Hangman-Swerve and MJF-Garcia may cast a long shadow over this particular blood feud).
Seems to me the winner should be in line for an AEW title shot, and right now both of the champions are heels, so that seems to favor Willow getting the win.
Mercedes Mone vs. Hikaru Shida - Mone's AEW TBS championship is on the line, but her STRONG women's title is not. Mone's amazonian enforcer Kamille is barred from ringside to prevent her from interfering, which is wrestlespeak for "she will run in anyway while the referee is distracted, or someone else will run in."
Shida has been going through some things lately, where she's frustrated about the recent trajectory of her career. I don't see this leading to a title win here; it feels much more like she's going to snap and turn heel, but not yet. So I'd say chances are real good Mone will retain.
Kazuchika Okada vs. Orange Cassidy vs. Mark Briscoe vs. Konosuke Takeshita - This is a four-way match for Okada's AEW continental title. Mark Briscoe is the ROH men's world champion, but his title isn't up for grabs. The first man to score a fall on any opponent will win the match and Okada's gold.
This feels like a cheap way to get all four of these guys on the show. Which is a little strange, since they've been setting up Cassidy vs. Chris Jericho, and I'm surprised they didn't simply book that match here. The action in this match should be hot, but I never expect a satisfying, definitive resolution in a three-way or four-way match. Okada is bound to retain, and since they probably want to protect all his challengers, I bet Jericho's crew will run in to make sure Orange gets pinned.
Matt Jackson & Nick Jackson vs. Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta - The Young Bucks (Nick & Matt) are defending the AEW tag team title. This feels kind of thrown together at the last minute, although it's been thrown together well, since Yuta pinned Nick last night in an eight-man tag match. Claudio and Wheeler are already two of the trios champions, so I don't think a title change makes much sense here. This is probably just a placeholder so the Bucks can retain on their way to a more important feud, maybe against Max Caster and Anthony Bowens.
Max Caster & Anthony Bowens vs. Bronson & Boulder - This is scheduled for the pre-show. I guess this is just meant to be an easy win for the Acclaimed (Caster and Bowens). I mean, I think the Iron Savages are pretty cool, but they're basically jobbers. I'm sure the match will be fun because I'm pretty sure I've seen it already at last five times. The Acclaimed should win.
Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara & Hologram vs. Tony Nese & Ari Daivari & Josh Woods - This is also on the pre-show. Dustin won the ROH trios title a few weeks ago alongside Marshall and Ross Von Erich, and then he won the ROH tag title with Guevara. Now Dustin is doing trios matches with Sammy and Hologram, for some reason, which seems like it should bother the Von Erichs. The Premiere Athletes (Nese, Daivari, and Woods) are a decent little faction but they're mainly used as jobbers to the stars. Hologram is undefeated in AEW and I don't expect that to change tonight.
Juice Robinson & Austin Gunn & Colten Gunn vs. Evil Uno & John Silver & Alex Reynolds - Another trios match on the pre-show. Last night, the Bang Bang Gang (Juice's team) did a backstage segment last night with Cage of Agony, and Dark Order (Uno's team) lost to Dustin/Sammy/Hologram. I don't know how those two things set up this match, of all things. Oh well, I am very into the idea of Juice Robinson and John Silver having a "biggest horny weirdo" contest. I assume the idea is for Cage of Agony to maybe run in or something, but who the hell knows. I really dig both of these teams, but the Bang Bang Gang clearly has to win.
Roderick Strong & Matt Taven & Mike Bennett vs. Dante Martin & Darius Martin & Action Andretti vs. Shane Taylor & Lee Moriarty & The Beast Mortos - Still another trios match on the pre-show. I don't mind showcasing the depth of the trios division, although that depth would be more convincing if Mortos wasn't randomly paired up with Shane Taylor Promotions. This is a three-way trios match, so I'm not even sure how many people can be in the ring at any given time, or how tags work, because it'll probably break down very quickly into a lot of fun flippy spots and dives. They've been repackaging Top Flight (Dante and Darius) and their friends with a passenger airline crew gimmick, which is somehow not as cringe as it sounds. So I'm kinda leaning towards Top Flight's team to get the win, but I suppose one of the heel teams could steal a pin too.

omg link to the ybc joe playlist????
WELL FRIEND i have many ybc playlists and im going to use this ask as an excuse to share all the ones that are public because i am actually so proud of most of them !
the way i do playlists especially character playlists that are connected thru shared canon is pretty specific. track order always matters, every playlist starts with an instrumental track that sets the tone, and that tone will change as the playlist progresses. different characters will favor different genres, some more heavily than others, but there are intentional shared artists across the different playlists to emphasize shared connection (i.e., ybc pete's playlist is going to share an artist with ybc joe, ybc andy, and ybc patrick, all separately). character playlists are constructed thru the lens of focusing on a genre or a couple different genres and then adding songs that lyrically encapsulate the character's whole Deal, tho not necessarily chronologically.
all playlists featured here are an even 50 songs, which puts them at around the 3 hour mark. generally speaking there won't be more than 2 songs by any one artist, but there will be at least one SRAR track.
i have Lots of these but these are the ones that are public and that i'd mostly consider done (plus or minus some tweaking down the line cause i'm picky lol) so these are the ones i'm sharing.
YBC ANDY: lots of metal, hardcore, hard rock, prog-rock, etc. very high energy but focuses on themes of helplessness in the face of adversity, emotional repression, and self-neglect in the name of group cohesion.
YBC PETE: blend of pop, alt-rock, pop rock, hip-hop, and melodic dubstep. discusses themes of betrayal, loss, and deception but with an edge of gritty determination to turn things around.
YBC JOE: all flavors of rock - classic rock, alt-rock, pop rock, punk rock, metal-rock fusion, but with a sprinkling of morbid acoustics. concentrates on themes of self-loathing, unbelonging, uncertainty, and fear.
YBC PATRICK: eclectic mix per the character's innate duality. starts with folk-adjacent indie tunes before swinging into harsher metal and punk/hardcore, dipping into jittery electronica, then deranged, bouncy pop. evens out into quieter, more introspective acoustics. themes of duality, guilt, and wrestling with one's internal demons.
THE VIXENS: this one is basically all girlboss bops. it mmmostly favors pop and riot grrl type rock but honestly it's got a lot of variations on the general theme of "i want to kill men"
THE DEFENDERS OF THE FAITH: combines the disparate styles of the four guys into one conjoined playlist. focuses on hope and unity.
#askin hours#anon#*mixes#idk if i have a tag for that already? but now i do#anyway im ridiculously proud of these even if i had to use spotify to make em#ybc joe's is my favorite but i love putting these on#i built these in part to help with comic stuff cause character playlists help me get into ppls heads and stuff#but honestly ill just put them on for whatever. i love making playlists for a target audience of me

i have my two cents nobody asked for but i do have them
orange cassidy was one of the staple names of aew for me since the very beginning. he was one of the few kids from indies (hilariously enough, considering how old he is actually lol) that i knew beforehand and whos work i greatly enjoyed (janela and mjf being few others, for example), so ive been drawn to him since the very beginning of this company; hes one of the names that got me interested in aews potential, and what they could offer to me as an alternative, cause if they choose to hire him, they knew what they were doing
ive been in his corner since day one. be it comedy wrestling or any of this more serious stuff. him winning the belt was huge, and he continued to make it, he kept it important. hes the second ever international champion, and its already one of the most prestigious titles in this company. because of him, his title reign and how he defended it
watching oc go through all of this, the character growth through the months and how hes been dealing with all of this - especially with last weeks stadium stampede - has been.. i dont know if theres proper words for it, honestly. it sure has been something. the one thing thats sad about it is that people are finally getting behind him and seeing how fucking good he really is only after it all became serious like this, but also i get it. he is not everyones cup of tea, but boy howdy he should be. man so versatile he puts everyone else to shame fr
he has done so great. matchups nobody thought possible, and hes almost always come out on top. orange cassidy elevated not only his game throughout all of this, he elevated the entire game. his opponents, the whole ass fucking playing field. improvise. adapt. overcome. nobody do it in this game like orange cassidy
am i sad he lost the title to mox? yeah. all personal bias aside, i think we should have given him more time, mainly cause the last few weeks he has been absolutely insane and i wish we could have seen him build on that more. more talk time like hes been having, i dont say more blood orange cause thats.. twice is already so much. but more time to show this feral stray cat side of him, him talking shit and elevating even on that game, putting the money where his mouth is. we needed more of that honestly before he was dethroned and had to move on to hopefully a well deserved rest for a while, especially since what we got was absolutely incredible and got peoples attention. he deserves more than that, so people can be taking notice when he scoots over to world title pictures next cause lbr, thats where this superstar is heading
i do hope mox keeps this title growing. he is more than capable of it for sure, but also i just dont think we are ever seeing as hard of a title reign in this company as orange cassidys. that man is one of a kind, and so deserving of all of his roses that will ever come to his way. and i think, love him or hate him, everyone should give him those roses after all of this
thank you
#orange cassidy#my beloved#sweet little clementine#i dont know if this makes sense my brain is overheated mush rn#all i can hope rn is that 1. oc gets the rest he needs. he has so deserved all of it#and 2. that despite losing the title kip will still be obsessed with him lol. that one im not ready to let go#wrestling musing

Chapter 16: A New First Time and a Phone Call (A Poly Judgment Day Fic)
Smackdown April 21 2023
The members of the Judgment Day pull up to the venue where SmackDown is being tapped, Nessa in the backseat between Damian and Rhea, her head on Damian's shoulder glad they worked out their issues from the other day, having spent the previous day training and then lounging about Rhea's house just enjoying a peaceful day.
"Remember we have to go to Pearce's office for a quick meeting with him and Hunter about the plans leading up to Backlash." Finn reminds the group as he puts the car in park. The group besides Nessa groans hating going to these meetings because that means things changed.
"Come on, it can't be all that bad, let's get going. After the meeting, I have to go to makeup because I am out of my color-correcting kit and this needs to be covered before filming starts." Nessa gestures to her neck and chomps her teeth playfully at Damian who leans over and kisses at her neck again.
"We can add more if you want Mariposa." He offers the promise thick in his words and she knows they will, especially if she has her way later in the night. Nessa collects her thoughts and pushes against Damian to make him open the door which he does and he helps her out of the SUV. They wave to the fans as they make their way into the building, Finn and Damian carrying the girl's bags, Nessa holding hands with Rhea and Damian. They stop by their locker room saying hi to Asuka and Indi who is sharing with them for the night.
"Hi, thank you guys for coming in early to have a training session with me." Nessa thanks the two women who smile at her.
"No problem, we don't want you getting hurt out there, plus we want to see you actually wrestle at some point!" Indi responds with Asuka nodding along excitedly.
"You know you remind me of someone I can't place my finger on who..." Asuka points out, tapping her chin and cocking her head to the side.
The others in the room study Nessa and try to see what Asuka is talking about. "Well think about it while we are gone, we have a meeting with Adam that we are late, so lets goooo!" Finn herds the others out of the room flicking Nessa's nose when she sticks her tongue out at him
__________________________________________________________________________
Once in Pearce's office, they all take seats. Rhea sits down in one of the chairs and pulls Dom onto her lap, Damian doing the same to Nessa, Finn leans against Damian's chair and crosses his arms. "Thank you for coming in early. I called you guys here to discuss a few changes happening in tonight's show. You will accompany each other to the ring as planned but we would like some PDA between you two," Adam explains, gesturing to Nessa and Damian. Nessa nods in agreement, not seeing any problem. "We don't care what but amp it up, the fans love you two."
"There is also going to be another brawl ringside and we would like to know if you would get involved Nessa? Since we have to ask your permission per your contract." He adds on after seeing their reactions to the first part, the tone in his voice making Nessa feel uneasy.
"Yes with one caveat, I get a tool from under the ring when the fighting starts. I don't know a lot of moves and it would make sense seeing as we are the "bad" guys. How do you want it to go? I know the match is up in the air this time but what about the ringside fighting?" Nessa asks the important questions with all eyes in the room on her.
"I can't sanction any extra tools this time but..."Adam goes to answer but Nessa cuts him off,
"But nothing Scrap Daddy, you want me to get physically involved that is the only way I will at this time. I'll be careful and take care of the others. I was thinking of using a chair or a kendo stick on someone to defend Dom and then I can go fists with Zelina or something with Mami running interference with me." Nessa throws out there daring the man to argue. Danika warned her about him. He sits back in his chair maintaining eye contact with Nessa, the other members of the Judgement Day look back and forth between them waiting to see how it turns out.
After a tense minute, he sighs and Nessa knows she has won the battle. "Fine, I'll inform the others of what is going to happen. Go to your training and make sure you are ready for tonight and for the love of god practice your hitting to make sure you don't accidentally injure an actual wrestler."
"Hey I didn't ask for this but I am putting my all into it and putting my body on the line. I was practically dragged here by one of your golden boys. I am a goddamn nurse and a damn good one. I know how to not hurt someone. I know I am lucky that I have a choice in the matter AND I have been a good sport about it and training my ass off every day. I may not be a "real" wrestler now but someday I might be. Who knows, hell, maybe someday I might take your job." Nessa goes off the threat hanging in the air, her partners staring in shock.
The shock turns to confusion as Adam laughs, full out laughs and slaps his desk. "Hunter was right about you. You are going to be a great asset to the company." Adam stands up and holds out his hand and Nessa looks at it like it is a snake ready to strike. "Oh honestly it's not a trap and I'm not fake. I tell it how it is just like you do. We will get along great." He tries to reassure the people in front of him. Nessa turns to look at the others who nod their heads. Nessa huffs and gets off Damian's lap and stands up facing Adam and swipes her hair off of her shoulder before shaking his outstretched hand. Adams eyes widen momentarily and he clears his throat. "Actually, could you stay back a few minutes, Nessa? There are a few things I needed to discuss with you alone about your contract." He asks, nodding towards the door silently telling the others to leave... which they don't.
They only get up from their seats and stand up, Damian wrapping one arm around Nessa's shoulder and pulling her to his chest. "Whatever you can say to her you can say in front of us. Isn't that right, Mariposa?" Damian asks Nessa to back him up as he stares down Adam.
"Normally yes but I think I see what this is really about. Scrap Daddy, the Scrappiest of Daddies... it is not what it looks like. They are just a mountain of hickeys because we apparently can't keep our hands and mouths to ourselves." She explains elbowing Damians ribs as he snickered after realizing what happened. Nessa glances at Dom who pouts and rolls his eyes as he gets pulled into Rhea's chest where she starts stroking his head.
Adam sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose, breathing out heavy. "Go do your training and then straight to makeup and get that covered up as much as possible and please try to limit visible marks. We have a PG rating and would like to keep it that way." He dismisses them and they file out of the room. Damian and Rhea burst out laughing while Dominik cracks a smile, the situation being funny.
"Two times this week, you guys really need to control yourselves." Nessa points between Rhea and Damian, who laugh harder as they make their way to the ring. Once they get past the curtain at Gorilla and to the top of the ramp they see Zelina, Indi, and Asuka already there having a mock match. Nessa and the others head down and get in the ring, the other three women having stopped their match.
"Ok now stretch so you don't get hurt." Asuka orders going all business.
Nessa rolls her eyes but does as she is told. Once she is stretched and warmed up Zelina walks up to her. "Ok, you are good at taking bumps and throwing some punches. Today we will work on hits since we are fighting tonight. We are also going to teach you some takedowns..." Zelina informs and Nessa nods her head ready to learn. The members of the Judgment Day lounge around on the outskirts of the ring as Nessa trains and learns moves, all of them looking on with pride at how hard Nessa is working and how fast she is learning. Damian cheers as she successfully executes an arm drag on Asuka then a DDT on Zelina.
"Ok so you can't powerhouse or actually lift any of us yet so like with the arm drag you have to use momentum to move us. Use it however you can, especially if you are in a non-determined match. You did excellent last week selling for Zelina but trust that your opponent will do the same for you. You have to trust even if there are legit feelings there." Indi preaches as she maneuvers Nessa around the ring as an example.
"Alright I think we need to call it and get ready for the show tonight," Finn calls out after checking the time seeing they were down there for more than an hour, teetering on two, the show starting in less than an hour at that point. The women in the ring stop, all of them out of breath in some way nodding in agreement and getting out of the ring. Nessa is the last out, standing on the apron. Damian steps over to her and grabs her by the waist and slowly lowers her to the ground where he kisses her forehead, then grabs her hand and leads her up the ramp, Rhea catching up to them and grabbing Nessa's other hand, Dominik riding Finn's back up the ramp and back to the locker room.
___________________________________________________________________________
Nessa returns to the locker room after a trip to hair and makeup, stomping her feet annoyed at all the questions and looks she got.
"Hey baby what's wrong?" Rhea gets up from Damian's lap and goes over to where Nessa is leaning against the door rubbing her temples trying to fight off the headache forming. She jumps when she feels Rhea's hand gently on her shoulder. "Hey, hey, I'm sorry I didn't mean to startle you. What's going on Bunny? Are you ok?" Rhea asks, deeply concerned for the smaller woman in front of her, the others in the room paying close attention to the interaction.
Nessa sighs and answers, "Yeah, just everyone so worried and sweet. I wish I had that when I was actually in a dangerous situation. But I guess that is why he never brought me around and I wasn't allowed to come to shows or live events. I wasn't even allowed to watch so I didn't." Rhea rubs up and down Nessa's arms catching the looks of her partners, Damian clenching his jaw and fist, Finn cracking his neck and Dom not looking surprised, just sad for Nessa and leaning against Finn's shoulders.
Nessa looks up for the first time since entering the room and sees the looks on all their faces, her own face falling and letting out a little squeak realizing what she just said. She immediately begins stuttering trying to explain, "I...I...He....it..." She is near hyperventilating when Rhea just pulls her into her arms, resting a hand on Nessa's head, the other one rubbing her back. After a few minutes Nessa's breathing is back under control.
"You don't have to explain further. You asked us to not do anything and we won't now that we know why you were so adamant about us not doing anything." Rhea soothes and gets confused why Nessa is shaking her head.
"I need to explain at least something, he isn't on the main roster so he had more time to come see me. When we met he was doing independent circuits. He went to NXT in 2017. That distance and another factor is what gave me the strength to leave him. Though when I wouldn't move with him..." Nessa trails off and tries to shake the memory from her head and she feels Rhea sigh.
"Well you are safe with us Bunny, you don't have to tell us who but if you want you will always be with one of us. We won't let anything happen to you, right guys?" Rhea promises, the men chiming in in agreement.
Nessa smiles and steps out of Rhea's embrace. "Thanks, guys, that means a lot." Nessa looks around the room and notices the absence of Asuka and Indi. "Where did they go?" She asks, confused. She thought they were sharing the locker room for the show.
"They went to the main locker room because they said 'we don't need to see the lovey eyes or god forbid you try to fuck in front of us'." Damian explains, doing air quotes and laughing. Nessa blushes at the thought and steps towards Rhea again and hides her face against Rhea's shoulder. "Ohhh that's something you like, duly noted Mariposa." Damian smirks and Dominik smiles, well aware exhibitionism is a turn-on for Nessa. There is a glint in Rhea's eyes as she meets Damian's gaze, the same smirk on her face.
"Bunny go and finish getting ready, we start the show off and it starts in like 30 minutes." Rhea orders, turning Nessa around and slapping her ass making her yelp and stick her tongue out. Rhea cock her head and steps towards Nessa smirking and Nessa grabs her bag and runs to the bathroom giggling. Nessa exits a few minutes later sporting a Judgment Day tank top tucked into her black high waisted skinny jeans and a belt much like what Rhea wears when she doesn't have a match. She twirls around as a chorus of whistles fills the room.
"Looking good Mamita!" Damian praises, grabbing her hand and spinning her around again looking her up and down appreciatively.
Nessa stops after the spin facing Damian and stands up on her toes and pulls him down to kiss her. "They want PDA, we can give them PDA!" Nessa smirks, the others smiling just the same enjoying the comfort Nessa feels with them.
_______________________________________________________________________
There are three quick knocks at their door signaling they need to get to Gorilla.
Nessa grabs Damian's hand and Dom grabs her other hand, Rhea doing the same for Finn. They make their way to Gorilla, people whispering and giving them wary looks. More so than normal. Nessa notices first and squeezes Damian and Dom's hands feeling uncomfortable as it seems everyone is focused on her. Mercifully they reach Gorilla and she sees that the LWO is absent. She doesn't have the spoons to deal with more questions about what is currently covered on her neck, especially from Rey.
Dominik tugs her arm. "Are you ok Princesa?" Dominik asks.
Nessa glances up and gives a soft smile. "Yeah, Neshama Sheli (my soul), I'm just concerned about what people are thinking about us because of my neck. Everyone is jumping to conclusions; only a few people seem to believe the truth." She explains and their music starts ending the conversation. Nessa releases Dominiks hand and moves to stand between Finn and Damian. The three of them head out to the top of the ramp through the fog blowing out. Nessa stands there crossing her arms and looking up at Damian as he flexes his arms out as the pyro goes off. They slowly make their way down the ramp, Finn talking to Nessa until they are about half way.
Damian grabs Nessa by the waist, wrapping his arms around it making her giggle and pulls her into a searing kiss. Nessa throws her arms around his neck and jumps wrapping her legs around his waist. Damian adjusts his grip on her, resting one hand on her ass, a smirk plastered on his face as they reach the bottom of the ramp. He pats her ass and gently sets her down, guiding her up the steel steps and follows her up, stepping on the lower rope and pulling the middle rope to give her easy access. She steps in the ring, followed by Damian who grabs her wrist and pulls her to the side of the ring where Finn is leaning against the ropes. Nessa matches Finns posture while Damian steps on to the ropes and does his poses before jumping down.
They pace around the ring for a moment until Rey Mysterio's music comes on. Damian puts a firm hand on the small of Nessa's back and guides her to the backside of the ring and helps her out of it until she is standing on the apron facing him, the ropes between them. "Kick his ass baby, make him pay!" She orders him. Damian nods and pulls her in by the back of the neck, smashing their lips together, Nessa is unable to breathe from the heat behind the kiss until she remembers they are on TV. She breaks the kiss and goes down the steps, her face flushed and trying to catch her breath, fanning herself with her hand.
She ignores Santos and Rey entering the ring, even when Rey comes towards that side of the ring and looks down at Nessa, her eyes are glued to Damian. Concern fills Rey's eyes and he returns to his corner where he pokes his head out the ring and whispers something to Zelina who accompanied them out. She shakes her head and tells him no and that catches Nessas attention. Their conversation gets heated until Zelina finally agrees to whatever Rey says and gives Nessa a pitying look which makes a knot form in her stomach as the bell rings signaling the start of the match.
Finn starts it off trying to kick Rey who catches it and throws his foot down, throwing punches and pushing Finn back into the corner then Irish Whips him only for Finn to reverse out of it and throw Rey into the opposite corner, his back slamming into the turnbuckles.
"Get him, Finn!" Nessa calls out as Finn jumps and swings at Rey who moves out of the way. Finn's chest bounces off of the turnbuckle and he turns still ready only to be met with Rey jumping and landing a hurricanrana. Nessa calls out and cheers when Finn lands hits and curses Rey when he makes a connection with Finn. Feeling the protectiveness come over her for her partner. Eventually Finn grabs Rey from the top of the mask, dragging him to their corner and giving the tag to Damian. Damian immediately kicks Rey in the chest knocking him to the ground and keeps on stomping on him per Nessa's request before the match had started. He pauses to smirk at her, seeing her clapping and cheering him on.
Nessa bites her lip as Damian smacks Rey across the face and throws him into their corner and they play hot potato while tagging in and out just punishing Rey. The animosity between them is clearly on display for all to see. Nessa watches and giggles until Rey gets the upper hand and tags in Santos. She stresses while Santos gets the upper hand on Finn and knocks Damian off the apron. Nessa checks on Damian before helping him back to the apron just as Santos hits Finn in the corner. Damian jumps in the ring speeding for Santos who moves out of the way, making him hit the turnbuckles, Santos then moves, capitalizing on Damian, hitting him with a high knee as Finn recovers and goes to punch Santos who catches his hand.
Nessa curses as Santos uses Finn as leverage to kick Damian, this ending with Finn outside the ring and a double team on Damian who rolls out of the ring. With Nessa distracted trying to head towards her boyfriends Zelina takes the opportunity to do as Rey told her and grab Nessa by her hair and DDT her, stunning the young woman, red hair splayed out around her as she is rolled onto her back, Zelina sits on her chest, pulling Nessa's purple bandana from her pocket and licking it and proceeding to wipe down Nessa's neck revealing the litany of purple, green and yellow marks and handprint in various stages of healing.
Nessa's eyes widen and she flings her arms up, successfully landing a punch to the bottom of Zelina's chin forcing her to lose the grip she had onNessa who rolls partially making Zelina slide off. Nessa gets to her feet the same time as Zelina and throws another punch only for Zelina to catch her hand much like Santos did Finn. Zelina goes to whip Nessa into the barricade but Nessa is able to counter whipping Zelina into the barricade instead. Nessa is aware Zelina probably let her as way of an apology for going off script. Nessa goes to kick Zelina when she hears the Judgement Day's theme announcing her men won their match. Nessa quickly gets in the ring as the ref raises Damian and Finn's hands in victory only for Rey to get back in the ring and forcefully turn Nessa around and grab her chin to look at her neck.
Finn gently grabs Nessa and pulls her back as Damian steps in front of them and shoves Rey back. Nessa fully expects Damian to do more but is pleasantly surprised when he just turns to her, "Are you ok Mamita?" He asks and she nods and glares behind him where Rey is standing again with his arms crossed.
"Jefe come on we need to go!" Zelina calls out reminding him of their obligations.
He glares at Damian assuming it was him who marked up Nessa and points to him, "I will make you pay for what you are doing to her, you corrupt my son and now hurt mi hija. Count your days, Priest." Rey threatens before getting out of the ring and pulling Zelina and Santos into a hug as he pulls them up the ramp. Damian and Finn protectively wrapped around Nessa.
Rey, Santos and Zelina are at the top of the ramp when Damian gets a microphone and wraps his arm back around Nessa, Finn doing the same making a Nessa sandwich. "This Monday, live from Chicago sold out on Monday Night Raw, the return of Bad Bunny," Finn goes ooooh and giggles maniacally as Damian continues and Nessa smirks, looking up at Damian again, the marks on her neck partially visible from her attack earlier, "You know Benito I really hope this visit goes differently from the last time it did for you." Damian speaks into the mic, laughing deviously at the end, their music starting again as they get out of the ring and head up the lamp, Nessa sandwiched between them again.
___________________________________________________________________
Once backstage Rhea and Dom rush to them, all of them fussing over Nessa again who shrugs their hands off. "Im ok, though I am going to have to talk to Zelina to see what the fuck that was. Clearly Jefe had something to do with it. They argued before the start of the match about something to do with me." "Clearly word got to him about your neck and he was worried. Though he shouldn't be, he knows me and my past, he should know that I never..." Damian growls and Nessa pats his chest.
"I know this and those who truly know you know this. If they don't, then fuck them. Go on back to the locker room while I go hunt down Zelina and see what the fuck happened. Then I have a feeling we are going to be called to Hunter's office." Nessa tries to direct them but Hunter comes around the corner.
"And you would be correct Miss Klein, all of you, my office NOW" He nearly growls the last words and turns around, the members of the Judgment Day share looks as they follow Triple H to his office, Nessa hanging her head low. Once in the office Dominik closes the door and leans against it, Damian pulls Nessa to his chest and glares at Zelina and Rey who are accompanying the only two seats in front of Hunter's desk.
"Would you mind telling me what in the actual hell happened out there, that is not the altercations that was supposed to happen. You," He pointed to Zelina, "Revealed marks on Nessa's neck which has opened us up to very uncomfortable conversations with the network, and she tells me you," This time Hunter points at Rey, "Made her do it to see proof of some imagined slight or danger when she told you that it is consensual. Is this true?" He asks Rey and Zelina who nod their heads, not making eye contact. Looking like little kids.
"Nessa, are they consensual? And do you feel like you are in any danger?" Hunter asks point blank.
However before Nessa can answer, Rey decides to interject his own opinions, "She wouldn't answer in front of them if they weren't consensual so that is a stu..." He starts but shuts up with the ferocity of a look that Hunter gives him.
"You don't speak unless I ask you to." He growls at the smaller man. "Now Nessa I can see you are comfortable with them, I know how things get carried away, just do me a favor and keep them covered. I'll explain to the others that it is consensual just try to control yourselves." He then turned his murderous gaze back to Rey, "This is on you, you wanted to bring her in for Dom, you had to know something like this would happen, now you two get out of my office. You know your fine Rey, Zelina you don't get one this time, but go off script like that again and you will not like the consequences." He dismisses the other two leaving only the Judgement Day. He pinches the bridge of his nose and just plops down into his chair.
"I am sorry we got carried away sir. We will do better and I will cover up any marks made before appearing on TV. It was and is 100% consensual and I am safe and happy." Nessa apologizes.
Hunter huffs and shakes his head, "This isn't your fault, the topic is a touchy one behind the scenes after recent years and we just want to make sure you are safe and happy. We have a zero tolerance." He starts to explain but Damian scoffing makes him stop.
"Why is that funny Priest?' Hunter asks, a little upset at the insinuation the scoff makes.
"Forgive me, sir, but the Zero Tolerance only applies to those that aren't the company darlings, I can name one person still employed that has allegations against them, and another owns the majority of the company and has to be contractually castrated." He explains, kissing the top of Nessa's head and swaying them back and forth.
"Name him then and we will investigate it."
"Well JD McDonough, a woman came forward with pictures and said she wasn't the only one." Damian answers, glancing down when he hears her gasp and feels Nessa tense up. He gently turns her around so her head is against his chest and he is rubbing her back. Finn was immediately annoyed by Damian naming his friend not believing the allegations, but that annoyance and disbelief falls away when he sees Nessa's reaction and his heart breaks for a multitude of reasons.
"We were not made aware of any other potential victims. Our investigation showed the allegations were flimsy at best but if there is someone else who can come forward and corroborate the allegations he will be duly released from the company." Hunter promises and like the others notices a shift in the emotions of the room. Especially coming from Nessa. He watches how she cowers into Damian and how the others gravitate toward her like she is their center and he puts the pieces together grabbing his phone and sending messages out.
"Mi Vida are you ok?" Dominik asks and Nessa nods into Damians chest.
"Yeah I'm just sore and hungry and want to go back to the hotel as soon as possible." She covers for herself unsuccessfully though the others in the room play along.
"You are done here for the night, no interviews or Promos are needed so you can go back to the hotel and head to Fort Wayne first thing in the morning since you have to be at the live show and then on to Chicago for Raw." Hunter dismisses them and they file out of his office. Nessa breaks out of Damian's hold and scurries over to Dom and grabs his hand, Dominik pulling her closer as they return to their locker room, trailing behind Damian, Rhea and Finn who are all close together whispering between themselves.They enter the locker room and spread out, gathering their bags. Dominik is ready first and stays glued to Nessa's side in case she needs anything.
They all pause when Rhea clears her throat. "Bunny, I think you and Dom need to head to the hotel ahead of us. Get some space and grounding. I know today was rough and trying for you. Get some food with him and we will go get food for us to give you two some time. You clearly need it so don't argue, Doll. Go ahead and we will be back soon ok? I only say this because we share the same room and don't want you to be overwhelmed." Rhea orders while making it sound like a suggestion but Nessa knows it is an order.
Nessa pouts and goes to argue the opposite but squeals and starts hitting Dom's back as he throws her over his shoulder. "Dominik Oscar Gutierrez, you put me down right now!" She orders and wiggles trying to fight against his one armed grip as he has both of their bags in his other hand.
"Sorry Princesa but no, Mami said so, so that is what we are going to do." Dominik apologizes but doesn't put her down as he heads to the door, Damian holding it open for them. "Love you guys, see you back at the hotel." Dominik calls out as he walks out the door, Nessa pouting still. Once down the hallway Dominik sets her down and grabs her hand. Nessa has burned out her frustration and is back to almost hugging herself with her free arm. "Mi Alma, what is going on in your head. What do you need?" Dom stops walking and stands in front of Nessa, resting the palm of his hand on her cheek and smiles softly as she leans into it.
"I just want to go back to the hotel and eat junk food and cuddle please." Nessa bats her eyelashes and kisses Dominiks palm. Dominik in turn moves his hand to the back of her head and pulls her face closer and gently pecks her lips, nose and eyes making her blush and swat him away. "Dom stooop - " Nessa whines, her blush getting deeper as Dom responds,
"No you deserve all the gentle kisses in the world and everything good in the world." He pulls her close again and peppers kisses all over her face again. Eventually he stops kissing her when she stops whining and leads her out of the arena. The looks this time are different than earlier and Nessa feels relieved and also worried at how fast word spreads in the locker room.
___________________________________________________________________
Rhea, Damian, and Finn wait until they are sure Dominik and Nessa are out of earshot before they start discussing what they just discovered. "It's him, isn't it? JD McDonough?" Rhea thinks out loud, pacing the room and cracking her knuckles.
"It seems that way... Finn, baby, you better tell your boy to watch out because if I ever see him alone" Damian threatens and pops his neck.
Rhea sighs and goes over to Damian grabbing the back of his neck forcefully and looking him squarely in the eye. "Listen Luis, she asked we don't so we won't and you promised. Get yourself together man." She reminds him and they glance at Finn who is sitting in a chair, his elbows on his knees and head in his hands.
"Finn?" Damian calls his name, making the man sniff and lift his head, tears swimming in his eyes.
"I'm sorry guys, I was one of the most vocal in his defense, swearing up and down that the allegations were false. I didn't think he was capable of that. But seeing how Nes reacted at just hearing his name is ... I regret ever taking up for him, he swore up and down it was consensual like with how you two marked up Nessa. That is not an excuse, nothing excuses that and I am sorry for the role I played."
"We have all had questionable friends who were capable of things we couldn't even think of that played on our emotions. It's not your fault babe. Abusers are master manipulators and that's how they get away with it." Damian claps a hand on Finn's shoulder, Rhea kneeling in front of Finn, her hand on his knee offering comfort.
"The thing to do now is to right the wrong. Come out and say you were wrong about it and apologize like you did with us. Before the situation can happen again. Apologize to his victims." Rhea advises and is confused when a look of horror crosses Finn's face.
"What, what is it, Finn?" Damian asks, getting worried even more.
"She had to have known about my defense of him. What did...what does she think of me?!" Finn asks, his eyes wide near a panic.
"Hey, Corazon, no don't do that. Look at how many times I've fucked up already, hell just the other day and she always has forgiven me. This was before you knew her. She came into this relationship probably already knowing and still willingly entered it so she must know how you really feel about it. Don't do that to yourself, if she has a problem she will tell us yeah." Damian joins Rhea kneeling in front of Finn who after a few moments nods in agreement with Damian's last statement.
'And if you feel so guilty about it when we get back if she is feeling up to it tell her this. Tell her how you feel and apologize for your role. She won't and doesn't hold it against you I can tell." Rhea rubs his thigh soothingly as his breathing begins to return to normal.
"Good, now you two go get Hunter tell him we need another car for the night and I'll make sure we don't leave anything behind." Rhea orders, returning to her feet, Damian doing the same and holding his hand out to Finn and helping him to his feet only to yank Finn to his chest, wrapping his arms around the shorter man and kissing his forehead.
"All will be fine you will see Amor, now come on lets go before Mami gets mad at us," Damian jokes, pulling Finn out the door with him, Rhea rolling her eyes as the remaining two of her lovers disappear from view, leaving the door cracked.
_____________________________________________________________________
Rhea hums to herself as she does one more pass around the room to make sure all their stuff is together. She jumps and whips around, fist closed ready to swing as someone clears their throat in the doorway. Rhea lowers her fist when she sees it is Rey, but stays on guard. Rey is holding his hands up in surrender to show he means no harm.
"Rhea, Sweetheart. I just wanted to check in on you too to make sure you are ok. If you need help getting out I can help you and Nessa and Dom just say the word. I can not stand by and let something that calls themselves a man lay hands on any woman."
Rhea takes a step back and scoffs, rolling her eyes. "Rey, I don't know what you think is going on but no one lays a hand on me that I don't allow and not a single thing is done without any of our consent so get that out of your little head. I am not leaving any of my partners and I will not let you try to break us up. If you do that, it will be the biggest mistake of your life." Rhea bends over slightly and glares at him, crossing her arms.
"You don't have to lie and try to protect them, I know what guys like that are capable of. It isn't your fault or Nessa's. Just let me help you." He offers again, this time taking a step towards Rhea who straightens and uncrosses her arms.
"Oscar, I will say this one last time. Neither Nessa or I are being abused by anyone in the group. Those marks on her neck are from me when we were making out in my kitchen after I returned from my Nonna's funeral. Then we added more when we, as in Damian Dom and I, had sex the next day. Not that it is any of your business. Now leave us the fuck alone, you have meddled and messed up Nessa's life enough. You've tried to derail Dom Dom's life as well now go away." Rhea orders stepping towards Rey who stands his ground staring up at the taller woman.
"Listen, Rhea." Rey grabs one of Rhea's wrists and she swings with her other hand, landing a punch with her full force straight to his temple knocking him out. Rhea's head jerks up when she hears someone whistling. She watches as Finn and Damian step over Rey like he is just a pile of clothes left in their bedroom.
"What happened here?" Finn asks, swaggering over to where Rhea is standing shaking her hand, she had hit him perhaps a bit harder than she expected.
"He accused you two of abusing me and Nes and offered to get me, her and Dom out and tried to grab my wrist to make me listen to him." She explains shrugging and stepping aside to let the boys grab the bags.
"Come on cariña, let's go eat then back to the hotel to probably find Dom and Nes naked." He holds out his arm for Rhea to take.
She smiles and rolls her eyes, "I mean, I'm for it, them having sex means we can all start having sex... and we both know we want Nessa, preferably naked and under us in bed." Rhea comments, Finn and Damian making grunting noises of approval as they step over Rey and head out of the arena.
_______________________________________________________________________
Back at the hotel, Dominik holds Nessa's hand as they head to their shared hotel room, a semi-comfortable silence between them. Neither knowing what to say but finding comfort in each other's presence. He raises their hands to his lips and places a gentle kiss on Nessa's hand as they exit the elevator, Nessa leaning up against him walking down the hallway, Nessa's head against his arm, her free hand gripping his wrist.
Dominik unlocks the door and steps back, letting go of Nessa's hand and lets her into the room first. She immediately goes and jumps into one of the queen size beds in the room, snuggling under the mountain of covers that smells like a mix of all of them. Dominik goes to his main suitcase at the foot of the bed and digs out a share size pack of twizzlers and tosses it to Nessa who snatches it out of the air and hugs it to her chest for a moment before ripping the end open and pulling one out and biting down letting out a little moan of enjoyment. Dominik lets out a little laugh and gets in the bed with her, sliding under the covers, pulling her onto his lap and turning on the tv. Once they are settled in position Dominik reaches to try and grab himself a Twizzler only for Nessa to smack his hand away.
"Come on princesa I'm hungry and I bought these for you." Dominik begs, the pout clear in his voice. Nessa huffs and holds up the bag for him to take a few out.
She finishes eating another Twizzler before she says anything. "Dominik?" She calls his name to get his attention and he answers with a hum, letting her know he is listening. "You all know now don't you?" She asks and starts eating another Twizzler swinging it around between bites nervously.
"We have theories but there is no need to talk about them. You are away from him and safe with us no matter what baby. I would sooner throw myself off the roof of this building or stop wrestling than to see you hurt again." He promises, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her closer to him, her back against his chest, nuzzling into her neck only for her to smack him in the head with one of the twizzlers. "Oww what is that for?" he lifts his head up again as she hits him again with the Twizzler.
"You are not allowed to unsubscribe from life nor quit your dream for me." She wiggles off of his lap and she turns around and straddles him, the twizzlers discarded on the side of the bed.
"Nessa, Mi Amado. Wrestling may be something I have always wanted to do but that isn't necessarily my dream, well my only dream. I have many dreams. One of which came true. You came back to me and now we are all together." He rubs his nose against hers in a gentle eskimo kiss, reveling in her blush and continues, "I also have a dream of all of us having a big family with lots of kids, our kids joining the company in the future." He admits, his eyes flickering about studying her expression and he relaxes seeing her not react negatively.
"I want those things too, Ducky, with all of us. I am all in like I said. I know it is fast but we just fit even with the hiccups we just fit and understand each other." She admits, wrapping her arms around Dominiks neck.
"Though we don't need to do all that right away, I still need to learn the others. We still have some time, years if need be for the IUDIi just don't like it. That is why I have an appointment to get it out in the next few months. It's been causing pain." She adds on, rambling, clearly getting anxious with the turn of the conversation. Dominik stops her rambling by pulling her in for a tender kiss, making Nessa take a sharp inhale of breath.
Dominik rests his forehead on hers, "Don't worry about it then, we will bring up the discussion when you are ready. Do what is right for you, just tell us if you do go off of birth control so we can take care of that on our end unless we decide to throw caution to the wind." He nuzzles into her neck.
"Ok, I will Mi Rey" Her response comes out more breathy than planned, caused by Dominik trailing his lips on her neck, pulling the collar of her shirt to the side, Nessa cranes her neck to give him better access. Letting him bite and suck on any spot he can get, leaving his own marks, this time in easier-to-cover spots. Nessa places her hand on Dominik's chest and puts a little pressure there, making Dominik release from her neck and lean back, his eyes wide like he feared that he messed up again. She smiles softly at him and pulls her shirt over her head, tossing it somewhere off the bed and grabs the bottom of Dom's shirt and tugs on it before slowly sliding it up his body and taking it off of him, the two of them not breaking eye contact as she tosses his shirt to the side as well.
She gently runs her hands up his chest until she wraps her arms around his neck again, playing with the hair at the base of his neck, giving it a little tug, making him groan and lean his head back. Nessa takes the opportunity to nibble and lick up and down his neck, careful to not leave any marks that his ring gear doesn't cover. She takes his moans as encouragement, feeling him get hard under her, and kisses up his jaw, returning to his lips.
"Dom, I need you." she mutters against his lips, determined. Dominik pulls her closer, deepening their kiss, both of them enjoying the taste of candy on each other's tongues. With a shaky hand, Dominik fumbles with unclasping her bra. Nessa giggles and leans back momentarily and undoes it, sliding it down her arms and tossing it aside. Dominik takes shaky shallow breaths, his hands resting on Nessa's hips. Nervously he runs his hands up her sides, resting his forehead against hers, his hands gently cupping her breasts and sweetly kissing her lips. Nessa huffs and grabs the back of Dominik's hands and squeezes them on top of her breasts.
"Fucking Christ Dominik, I won't break, fucking touch me like you mean it!" She squeezes her hands again for emphasis. He lets go of her breast and pulls her face to him, molding their lips together, moving in unison, their tongues flicking against each other. Dominik wraps an arm around Nessa's waist and goes to flip them, Nessa letting out a moan of pain making him sit back up and begin apologizing.
"Lo siento, sorry, sorry, sorry." He starts lifting her arms and trying to find obvious signs of injury.
"If you are going to flip me over, one make sure my arms don't get caught under our weight and two get the damn snacks off the bed so i don't get stabbed by them." She wiggles and grabs the bag of Twizzlers and sets them on the side table. Nessa then leans back up on her elbows looking at Dominik expectantly, "Do you want to continue this Dom because I very much do." Nessa bites her lip and bats her eyelashes at him, making him let out another shaky breath. He nods his head and resumes his position over her, Nessa laying on her back again. He grabs her breasts more forceful this time, using the force she put on his hands earlier and attaches his mouth to her hard nipple, licking and nibbling at it making Nessa arch her back, doing the same to the other before biting and sucking his way down her chest and belly, giving extra attention there knowing it is a spot of insecurity for her. He pauses and smiles as he sees her whole body begin to flush, accentuating the marks he has left down her chest and abdomen. He takes the opportunity to slide down her pants and underwear, and sliding down his own, kicking them off.
Dominik spreads Nessa's legs, kissing and biting up her thighs. Nessa grabs a handful of his hair, arching her back and grinding her pussy on his face when he licks up her slit and begins sucking and licking her clit and moaning as she pulls his hair while he pleasures her. "You taste so good Princesa" He praises and continues his attention on her clit. He readjusts his position and slides two fingers into her. Nessa grips the sheets, her breathing getting shallow as Dominik continues to tease her clit with his tongue.
"Dom... Don't stop...please..." Nessa begs, breathless, writhing in pleasure as her orgasm builds and she tenses up, forgetting to breathe for a moment from the force of it, the flush running down her body. Dominik kisses back up her body giving her a little time to recover, until he is above her once again and gently pecks her lips.
"Are you ok Corazon? Do you want to continue?" He asks, looking into her eyes and gently stroking her face, all Nessa can see through the haze of her orgasm his complete adoration and love shining through his eyes at her. .
"Yes, please Dom!" Nessa reaches up and strokes his cheek and leans up kissing him and pulling him closer to her. Dominik kisses her neck as he gently enters her, his body shaking from nerves,
"I love you, Nessa!" He whispers, even his voice shaky, unsure how to still please her as he slowly thrusts in and out of her, her hand resting on the back of his neck.
" I love you, too, Dom, I never stopped" She gasps out as Dominik speeds up a bit and keeps a steady pace. She bites her lip to stifle a moan, digging her nails into his shoulder and pulls on his hair making him groan and stop, his eyes squeezed shut. This makes Nessa stop and rest her palm on his cheek, trying to control her breathing, "Dom are you ok?" She asks worriedly and he swallows thickly and nods his head.
"I uh... need a moment please" he asks, his eyes still closed. She studies his expression then it clicks, he is about to cum. She smirks to herself and pulls his hair and wiggles trying to make him cum, instead he pulls out. Nessa starts tickling his sides in revenge. His body convulses in involuntary laughter and he pulls away from her partially. Nessa sits up and tries to tackle him unsuccessfully as he just grabs her and pins her back onto the bed. She begins tickling him again so they start rolling about the bed trying to gain dominance, Nessa tickling him whenever he pins her, both laughing eventually ending with Dominik on his back.
"Ha, pinned ya" She gloats and kisses his nose, then lips. Lingering on his lips, both out of breath, their chests heaving.
"I let you pin me baby, I like it when you are on top." He answers back, a slight smirk on his face, running his hand down Nessas back and resting on her ass and giving it a little squeeze.
Nessa is straddling him and can feel that he is still hard and starts grinding her cunt against it making Dom moan, her hands resting on his chest. She does this for only a minute until she decides to guide his cock back inside. Dominik grabs her hips and begins to help her movements, both of their faces scrunching up in pleasure. He continues to use one hand gripping her hip tightly to guide her and the other rubbing patterns on her clit trying to make her cum again before he does. Nessa bounces on his cock, steadying herself with her hands on his chest, their moans filling the room, Nessa unable to keep a steady pace as her pleasure builds. She tenses up and nearly collapses on top of him as her vision goes blurry, and she whimpers, her whole body shaking.
Dominik flips them over, this time smoothly and continues to fuck her, prolonging her orgasm while chasing his own, his own rhythm gets sloppy, the closer he gets. Nessa rakes her nails down his back sending him over the edge with a deep groan. Breathless he leans his forehead against Nessa's, both of them out of breath and flushed. Dominik admires the pink hue to her cheeks and the sheen of sweat now adorning her body. He gently kisses her lips before gently pulling away from her and getting off the bed. He pauses when he hears a pitiful whine come from her.
"I'll be right back Mi Vida, I'm going to get a washcloth to clean you up, then we are going to cuddle and watch more TV ok?" He asks, just trying to make sure she is ok. She nods her head in agreement and grabs a pillow hugging it to herself. Dominik comes back moments later with a warm, damp washcloth and gently cleans her up, kissing her thighs again as he does so. "I love you Nes, so very much I hope you know that and I am so glad you joined us in every way. It has made me, us so happy..." He tells her as he goes to discard the rag back in the bathroom. She waits until he gets back to respond. He gets into the bed again back to the position they were in before and pulls the blanket across their laps, handing her the bag of Twizzlers, taking one for himself, then kisses the back of her head, affectionately.
"I love you too Dom, so very much. And I can see myself loving the others too, we all fit together. Thank you." She chomps down on the end of the Twizzler, swinging it around as she chews her bite. Dominik looks confused,
"Thank me for what Corazon? I should be thanking you for another chance that I don't deserve." He kisses her shoulder before resting his chin there, wrapping his arms around her, hugging her from behind. "Thank you for coming back, and letting me join in with you and the others." She shrugs like it is the most obvious thing, like she'd be no where else, as she hands him another Twizzler. He mutters thanks as he takes it and continues to eat with her.
"So Hermosa, since you trust me enough to have sex, can we make that chocolate cake our next day off?" He asks, kissing up her neck, the smell of Twizzlers on his breath. She is almost distracted by the physical affection but the words sink in and she starts smacking his arm with the half-eaten Twizzler in her hand and swings back occasionally smacking his head hitting him with every word she says,
"We just had sex for the first time in a year and all you can think about is that damn chocolate cake?" Dominik leans back laughing and trying to avoid getting hit in the head by her dreaded Twizzler.
"It is sweet like you and you have so much joy baking. Plus I want to have my cake and eat it too." He kisses her shoulder at the word cake and squeezes her hips, the closest he could get to her ass in that position. She crosses her arms and hmpfs in annoyance making Dominik laugh again. "I'm joking Princesa, whenever you feel ready for it I know it is a big deal so no rush," He pulls her close again and she relaxes in his hold. They remain comfortable in the glow of one another, like there was never any tension between them.
_______________________________________________________________________
The remaining three members of the Judgement Day enter the hotel room, not as surprised to see a naked Dominik and Nessa sitting on one of the beds just watching TV as they could be, a blanket lazily thrown across their lap. Dominik upon hearing them enter the room pulls the blanket up to cover Nessa's chest, knowing she is still uncomfortable with all out nudity in front of their entire group... for now.
"Oh come on, I get it but seriously?" Damian complains gesturing to the two of them, Finn breaks out cackling, jumping on to the other bed in the room, smiling at the pair of lovebirds.
"I mean, I'm for it, them having sex means we can all start having sex... and we both know we want Nessa, preferably naked and under us in bed." Rhea rolls her eyes at the broody man in front of her. "Priest, I don't know why you are acting surprised, you literally brought this up while we were eating."
"All of us, not just you two or three" Finn admits to the room, smiling shyly at the group who looks at him with shock.
"What, we are building our relationship and she actually enjoys building the lego kits with me. She brings me peace" He explains making Nessa blush and pull the covers to her face to hide it, making the others in the room coo at how cute it is.
"Screw you guys I'm getting dressed" Nessa pouts and gets off the bed, keeping the blanket wrapped around her body as she stomps to her suitcase and then to the bathroom, the various occupants of the room calling out apologies and Damian saying,
"You don't have to get dressed Mariposa, we like the way you look naked" making Nessa flip him off before slamming the bathroom door closed, thankful she grabbed her phone on the way in. She uses the quiet the little room offers and dials a familiar number.
"Hey Nes, I was worried you were never going to call. How are you?" Comes Aalyah's voice, tinged with worry.
"No, I uh..., I'm fine.. I'm better than fine. There is just something I want to tell you..." Nessa trails off nervous and unsure how to word this or how she is going to take it.
"OMG YOU AND DOM ARE BACK TOGETHER!!!!" Aalyah yells into the phone making Nessa roll her eyes.
"Yes sort of, Aalyah I want to explain this but you have to stay calm and not do what you just did ok?" Nessa lays out what she needs getting an immediate agreement from the other side. Nessa takes a deep breath and explains,
"We are a polycule all of us, Rhea, Dom, Damian, Finn and myself we are all dating each other and it just i don't know... feels right, like we all fit a particular need for the others. Jefe knows and doesn't like it and keeps trying to break us up, now claiming I am being abused which is farthest from the truth. We just like to get a little rough in the bedroom. You should see what Dom looks like without clothes..." Nessa explains and shakes her head hearing gagging sounds from Aalyah.
"Ok first of all eww I don't need to know that about my brother, second of all ok yeah that is fine love is love as long as you are safe and happy that is what I care about, that and giving me nieces and nephews. Ma would say the same. She is worried about you and feels awful..." Aalyah explains, knowing to not freak out and to accept the dynamic. She doesn't understand it but she respects their choices. Nessa sighs and bites her lip, sitting down on the edge of the tub now dressed in one of Doms old shirts and a pair of shorts. There is a knock at the door.
"Bunny are you ok in there?" Comes Rheas voice from the other side of the door.
"Yeah Mami, just talking to someone on the phone, I'll be out in a minute. Can you ask Dom to grab more snacks from his bag and a water?" She asks,
"Of course sweetheart." Comes Rheas reply, Nessa waits a moment before continuing hearing Aalyah squeal in the background.
"Oh that is too cute, ok yeah I support that 100%" aalyah coos
"Oh hush you. Ive been meaning to call you and ma ive just been otherwise occupied..." nessa explains trailing off at the end.
"Oh you are fucking already i love it. Tell me how is damian in bed ooooh how is Rhea!" Aalyah gushes trying to get the tea
"Nah i don't kiss and tell thats for me. Could you uh patch ma through so i can tell her as well... i hope she takes it well" nessa frets
"Yeah of course. And nes mi hermana dont worry she loves you and will understand and support it. Its jefe with the problem. Give me a moment" aalyah comforts Nessa as she ties her mom into the call.
"Hey honey whats up is everything ok? I saw Nessas neck is bruised is she ok do you know? " Angie asks rapidly.
"Mami yes everything is ok, she is ok she is actually on the phone with us and wanted to talk to you" Aalyah answers her moms question. There is silence on the line for a moment until Angie softly calls out Nessa's name, almost apprehensive.
"Yeah I'm here ma. I'm ready to hear you out and I have my own things to say after if thats ok?" Nessa asks biting her thumbnail
"Aye Mijita of course that is ok, and stop biting your nail its bad for you. I know you do that when nervous so stop there is nothing to be nervous about." Angie orders, the concern clear in her voice. Nessa smiles slightly even though they can't see it and lowers her hand to play with the hem of her shorts.
"It was never our intention to hurt you, we only wanted to see both of you happy like before. You wanted to join the company and Oscar pulled strings to make it happen but he shouldn't have forced your hand. We should have kept you in the loop, I am truly sorry and I will never do anything like that to you again. You don't deserve that. I love you like a daughter and would do anything for your safety and happiness." Angie finishes letting out a shaky breath.
"Wow, that means a lot thank you ma, I am happy, the most happy I have been for a long time. This group we are all together like dating. I know it is against your values and culture but it isn't against mine and we are happy so happy together. I have forgiven Dom and he has forgiven me and all five of us just ... fit. Instincutally we fill roles that the others need. WE just want you to be happy for us and support us. But Jefe doesn't and is actively trying to interfere and break us up. You saw what happened tonight. He went off script." Nessa unloads barely breathing to the point she gasps at the end and starts bouncing her leg up and down with anxiety while she waits for Angies response.
"That is a lot to take in Mijita, while it is against our religion I will not hold it against you or Dom, I just want you two happy and safe and if you are that is fine with me I support your choices." Angie carefully responds and Nessa lets out a sigh of relief, that is better than she could ask for, Angie and Aalyah both laugh at the other end at Nessa sighing in relief.
"What did you think we would disown Dom and cut you out completely? No. I've had that fight with Oscar before, I wont let it happen and he will come around eventually... just give him time" Angie soothes, Aalyah just chimes in in agreement.
"Which reminds me, does that mean the others are now my children in law as well? Am I getting grandchildren?" Angie asks, serious, wanting grandchildren while she is still young enough to play with them.
"Uh yeah if you want about the children in law, as for the grandchildren, I just joined like 2 weeks ago and I have an IUD so not at the moment. It has to be agreed upon by all of us" Nessa explains and prays Angie leaves it at that.
"Get the IUD out, you and dom were already trying. Ask them, tell them we need children" Aalyah pipes in,
"Yeah, I'll call Dom tomorrow and tell him as much and I'll find away to message the others. You owe me a grandchild," Angie plans.
"Bye Ma, Aalyah." Nessa ends the call not wanting to have that conversation. She leaves the bathroom to the others all squeezed into one queen sized bed.
"Come to bed Mariposa, it's getting late" Damian orders waving her over. She shakes her head but does as she is told, climbing into the pile and getting pulled in the middle between Dominik and Damian.
"What was that call Hermosa?" Dominik asks and Nessa debates internally if she should tell him. Eventually she decides to be truthful,
"Aalyah and you mother, they were worried about me and I wanted to hear your mother out. I told them about us and this and they are happy for us and support us. And you will get a call from her tomorrow about grandkids. Sorry babe I can't stop her once the bit is between her teeth. You all will be getting messages from her as well I'm sorry" She apologizes to the group getting in a comfortable position as the others groan. Nessa faces Dominik, Damian spooning her. She sees the look of relief on Dominiks face and smiles, Dominik returning the smile before they close their eyes to sleep.

Kyle Fletcher rules (and has for a while)
With the attention he’s been getting this year with aew I thought I’d take some time to lay out how I feel his pre AEW/ROH run set him up for success and offer up some recommendations, this is NOT meant to be a hipster “his Indy work was better” or anti aew take I just fucking love sharing and getting recommendations for wrestling
IPW/Defiant
My first exposure to Aussie open was during the IPW UK invasion of defiant around I wanna say 2018. They had some really good matches with CCK and the south coast connection and the entire promotion barring a few shows is completely accessible and honestly really fucking good.
Progress wrestling
I honestly believe that the Swords of Essex vs Aussie Open feud is what got my boys into the United empire, I’m not gonna say LITERALLY ANYTHING OTHER THAN THIS FUCKS SEEK IT OUT ITS ON DEMAND PROGRESS. That aside I think it set up the first big step for Kyle to break out
Mark Davis’s injury and the Paul Robinson feud
Progress had something called the proteus championship where the title holder picked the rule set for their defense, I will confess to not having seen these matches yet for myself but I did watch any related promo content I could find. The defining champion for this belt was a little pitbull by the name of Paul Robinson, he was a viscous little street fighter with an iron jaw so naturally the only way to win was knock out or tap out. Which surprisingly Kyle manages to beat him. I can’t really give much more information but this is around the time he added the grimstone to his moveset.
When progress had a vacant world title you know who they put in a fatal 4 way for it? Cara Noir, ilja dragunov, Paul Robinson, and Kyle Fletcher. He might not have won but he was a credible contender FOR A WORLD TITLE.
Why I don’t think AEWs roster problems affect him right now
Ok look we all know the bloated roster problem for both aew and wwe I’m not gonna beat a dead horse. Instead let break down why I personally don’t think it’s an issue for Kyle Fletcher at the moment.
Honestly it’s because he has too many options, he went toe to toe with mjf so that could turned into a feud to keep both of them busy and legitimize the American championship. But what if it goes nowhere? He’s been ROH tv champ and that could translate very laterally into either a TNT title or an international title. If mark Davis comes back you have one of the best teams of the last few years, you want to know what I would want to see done? Fuck it make him the international champion, make him a killer, you could have him only defend it against non Americans because “you guys already have a belt” use it like the international version of the tnt open challenge, it would be a near perfect way to utilize the partnership with cmll and njpw more often, hell maybe even get some freelance players in for a one off like axel ticher from Germany, augil Leblanc from France (forgive the misspelling). I think that would rule

CM Punk - I generally dislike him as a person and most of what he's done since returning to wrestling, but he's unquestionably an important and influential figure in the business (for better and worse) and he was a big talent. The question is if he's somehow never received the credit or money he deserves. I think, at this point, he's gotten too much.
I know a lot of older male fans who missed CM Punk's original WWE run because they were watching other companies or weren't watching wrestling at all until AEW. Younger fans won't know this but "indie smarks" didn't like CM Punk. They saw him as inferior to a lot of indie guys who weren't big stars yet: Bryan, Steen/Owens, Generizo/Zayn, Omega, Devitt/Balor, AJ Styles. A huge list of guys who became stars filling in for Punk. So you can credit Punk for their success.
I was a big Punk fan. I was in the cult. I defended him and bought his side of stories over the decade of failures. But I checked out when he went to AEW. From the jump, I thought his shtick of helping the underdogs beat WWE was insincere. The politics he used to stay on top there made him the biggest hypocrite ever and destroyed the appeal he had in WWE. I'm not even talking about the 2 fights, which I think he deserves most of the responsibility for. But his unprofessionalism and Diva behavior in the Jon Moxley angle was just pathetic.
So now that he's in WWE again, WWE fans act like he's still the messiah of wrestling - even tho he's injured and in backstage drama again. One thing will never change about Phil Brooks: he's a natural heel. Since The Rock returned, I think its obvious that WWE doesn't need Punk. The only role he could've played well was Seth's role as Cody's backup. Punk has history with Rock and they're both on similar levels of health and athleticism. Both guys are talkers more than performers now. But Punk is missing the best angle that could've reintroduced him as a big star.
My prediction is Punk won't implode or do anything too stupid again, just because I don't think anyone is foolish enough to give Punk the diva treatment again. He abuses it every time. I think he will probably join HBK or take over for him as NXT's boss. He will stay in WWE's camp but won't ever have any real creative sway. The most positive effect Punk can make has already happened: he pushed HHH to prepare taking over WWE creative. And I think HHH is rewarding him for that alone. Punk will become HHH's "douchebag lackey Yes man"and thats really where he belongs.

My dream AEW/ROH storylines for Uno
I really want him to chase the International Championship, whether it's Cassidy or Fletcher, both work. Uno had a great match with Orange Cassidy at PWG Mystery Vortex 7 while Uno has faced Kyle Fletcher in tag team action multiple times. Both would be international matchups as well.
My ideal scenario is for him to win it and be able to defend it on the Indies as well as AEW as Uno is still heavily wrestling on the Indies.
Chasing the Trios Championships with his Dark Order brothers and the fact that House of Black are the current champions makes it even more perfect, given the fact that Dark Order has history with House of Black. You could play up Dark Order being the underdogs who have changed a lot especially over recent times, especially since everything with Moxley. Dark Order are eager to prove that they should be taken seriously and it would be perfect to show that through a revisit of a previous feud.
I don't know about the storyline but I think it would be cool if Uno faced Penta, they have faced in tag team action and I'd really love to see a one on one, maybe it could be a number one contenders match and the winner faces whoever wins out of Orange Cassidy and Kyle Fletcher, I don't really know, I just know they are both very similar but very different in a way that would make for a fun match.
Dark Order vs. The Kingdom. Honestly I just want Uno vs. Taven because I can just imagine both of them playing off each other really well but The Kingdom has a storyline going on where they are the gatekeepers of ROH so maybe you can have The Kingdom wanting Dark Order out of ROH because they apparently don't respect the place and that's where you can include Uno and Stu's history with ROH.
These are just off the top of my head, if you have a dream storyline/match that you want to see which includes Uno, reblog/reply with them.

RAW 23/10/23
Don't break a leg!
This week's Raw was stacked with some great matches and progression in storylines.
The show kicked off with Cody Rhodes trading words with Judgement Day members Damien Priest and Finn Balor. The verbal exchange cements a singles match between Priest and Rhodes at Crown Jewel. Of course things goes sour for Cody as The Judgement Day and JD start a beatdown on the American rollercodester. The numbers are too much and a steel chair is used on Cody's ankle. Cody overcoming the odds and winning sounds familiar, but that’s not a bad thing here. Cody needs to fight past as much adversity so it feels earned when he completes his story.
It's rare to see two babyface teams wrestling, but we got one here as Alpha Academy took on The New Day. The Highlight was Xavier Woods and Chad Gable amateur wrestling each other. Both men displayed a nice tempo. I would love a singles match between these two. The best part was Akira's reaction to The New Day winning.
For some odd reason, Seth Rollins walks around backstage cackling to himself. Rhea Ripley approached to recruit Rollins to The Judgement Day. Rhea would be sprinkled around this episode of Raw and I loved it. I couldn’t help both notice how much I dislike that both the men’s and women’s world heavyweight championship look identical. It'd be so much better if each belt had its own style and personality.
Rollins wasn't the only man Rhea tried to recruit to her stable. She also has her eyes on Drew McIntyre. Last week Drew and Sami Zayn exchanged some words that has led a match tonight. Drew's heelish demeanour is on full display against Sami. Both wrestlers played to their strengths and delivered a back and forth match. The Scottish Warrior would end up winning due to Rhea coming down and distracting Sami. They need to fire people from the people the production truck because a wrestlers theme song should NOT be played during a contest.
Rhea popped up again during the contract signing for the Women's World Championship match for Crown Jewel. All hell broke loose when Nia Jax antagonised all her opponents. The only thing missing from this contract signing was the table and chairs. I expected more heat from the crowd for Jax, but I guess that was reserved for Logan Paul and Dirty Dom
When Logan came to the ring he got a barrage of ‘’What’’ chants mixed with boos, but mother of god, Dominic got such heat from the crowd I couldn’t even hear him when he spoke. I suspect the audio is being bumped up, but still, the man gets heat like no other. I would love – for one night – a tag team with Logan and Dom. Next week we will see Ricochet versus Dom and I suspect Logan will interfere leading to a tag team bout.
Another good match was Becky Lynch defending her NXT Championship against Indi Hartwell. Lynch would pull double duty as she would defend and lose the next night on Halloween Havoc. Congratulations to Lyra Valkyria.
The main event closed with Señor Money in the Bank picking up a victory over Jey, thanks to an interference by Finn Balor. Cody would hop to the save.
This may be the best Raw I've seen in a long time. The men and women got a good amount of time in the ring. There was a nice balance between the matches and promos that furthered storylines.
