@kayfabekingdom liked for a starter from. . . CORA JADE.

cora is pacing backstage at the NXT arena, dressed in her signature punk-rock style with a backwards cap and leather jacket. she pauses near a circle of her fellow NXT stars, leaning against one as she smirks, twirling her skateboard at her side, it seemed like someone from the main roster was around, she just couldn't quite see who it was yet. ' i guess they've just come here to run their mouth too. . . typical main roster stars. . .' she chuckles quietly, an evil tone set onto her words unsure if the other had heard her.

@driiipgod gets a starter from . . . CORA JADE.

cora jade huffed in frustration, her fingers fumbling with the clasp at the back of her top. she was backstage at nxt, just minutes away from her segment, and of course, now was the time her gear decided to give her trouble. "ugh, seriously?" she muttered under her breath, twisting and turning to try and reach the stubborn clasp, but it wasn’t budging.

finally, she leaned out of the dressing room and shouted down the corridor, " hey! can someone give me a hand over here? i swear this thing has a mind of its own! " her voice carried a mix of annoyance and urgency as she glanced around, hoping one of her fellow superstars or crew members would come to the rescue before she ran out of time.

@neckbreakers gets a starter from . . . CORA JADE.

cora was backstage giving an interview to be posted later online on the wwe site, she had just recently returned and as usual they wanted a little chat with her to know what was on her mind. ' - and you know, this was getting boring without me so. . ' words cut off as she feels a gentle tap on her shoulder, a sigh of frustration as her bratty persona shines through, not even aware of who it might be. ' ugh, can i like never have a moment for myself around here?! what do you want? ' she questioned before turning around not facing this person just yet.

' thought you were used to it being the other way around, becky being " the man" and all ... i could see her actually making you call her daddy. ' she teased with a grin unsure if becky and seth were still a thing or not but it didn't hurt to try and tease him about the relationship or ex relationship for that matter. cora loved teasing and being playful and seth's reaction or lack off amused her. besides , for some reason she found herself drawn to his presence, unsure why. ' oh i will be watching. . . closely. but hey . . . ' she grabbed his arm before he went on to his own appearance, hesitantly moving it back as her cheeks flushed. did she just dare to touch seth rollins? she did, oh well - its been done now, might as well go with it, right? ' mind teaching me that stomp move next time you grace us with your presence again? or. . even after the show? '

Seth didn't say anything to her as he looked into her eyes. He watched her as she gently made his way towards him. He didn't speak nor react in anyway. Instead he kept his eyes settled on her and didn't respond to her. He wasn't certain what to say or speak to her in anyway. As a matter of fact he wasn't even certain what he was doing here in the first place. He was wasting his time and should be headed towards his place. He was due soon but he found himself stuck there as if he didn't want to live. He watched her closely his eyes focused on her for a long moment before clearing his throat at her. "The only time I wish to be called is in bed my darling. " He responded to her with a smirk. He then watched her closely for a long moment or two. His eyes drifted towards her lips as he admired them before looking into her eyes again. He found himself smirking at her. Finally they agreed on something which was a good thing. He didn't pull away from her and found himself admiring her but before he could say anything to her he found himself chuckling warmly at her as he heard her next words. "I saw. It was a good match. I must admit. But in your dreams my darling. I am not losing to punk anytime soon." He responded to her with a smirk. "The next time we face each other I will be hundred percent and then you shall see who wins. Anyway I better get going. It's my time to make my appearance. It was oddly nice to meet you. " He responded to her with a smirk.

cora knew she had touched a nerve there at mentioning cm punk and briefly going through the close relationship she had with him, her head tilts in glory as she watches Seth's reaction and she can't help but feel proud that she managed to get under his skin, she is bold enough to approach him closer than before pouting in a mocking manner as she leans her arm to rest against his. ' aw , are you jealous no one considers you their wrestling daddy , seth? ' she teases with a smirk playing onto her glossy lips ' I'm not confirming nor denying , but I haven't forgotten , that chair shot on romans back was and always will be cinematic, I might even have taken a few tips from that moment myself, but - like you said, who cares. We do what we have to do, right? ' she states while playfully walking around the architect. ' people always remember our failures but not our victories - speaking of , did you see my dad kicking drew's ass? wonder if story will repeat itself when you two go one on one... are you gonna be put to sleep seth? ' her words spit like snakes venom, she found it thrilling to get under his skin and she only wanted to do more of it now.

Seth rolled his eyes so hard that it felt like it might pop out of his eye sockets at the mention of punk. This certainly wasn't the direction he wanted the conversation to go. And he was certain she had mentioned punk just to tease him and push his buttons which as much as he hated to admit to worked on him. He simply scoffed at her for a moment before responding to her. "You know grown people calling someone wrestling dad makes me want to pop my eyes out. It's cringe for crying out loud. " He responded to her. He was giving her a golden opportunity and she must be smart to understand that and take it. If she was being a fool then he couldn't stop her even if he wanted to. Hearing her next words he found himself scoffing slightly at her. "It's been a decade who cares about the betrayal anymore. Besides it's not like you haven't betrayed people in the past either. " He said to her with a smirk. He knew all about her history and her fair share of betrayals in the past. "I am not the kind of person who forgets where I come from. Regardless of what people may think of me." He confessed to her.

' you didnt answer my question. . . what are you doing at nxt? ' brows raise, now turning to face him, adjusting her top as she gives him a nod of approval that basically says he did a good job without her actually mentioning it. ' you don't need to be so tense around me. . . ' teases with a grin displaying onto her glossed lips, though he probably should if punk were ever to know about this interaction. ' . . . i dont bite, hard. '

To say that this was awkward definitely is an understatement. Considering her relationship with CM Punk someone that he has not had the nicest things to say about, Seth could feel the tension. None the less, he's not going to let his relationship with Punk affect things here with Cora. "Tie it together?...." He paused looking, finding the pink laces and ties them together. Putting in extra effort to make sure it wouldn't come do during her match. "You should...be good." He said, quickly taking a step back.

' and to betray my wrestling dad cm punk? mm, now now what would he say about that? ' much like roxanne whom she considered like a sister, cora had a very strong bond with cm punk, someone whom she grew up admiring beyond the wrestling ring. he was an icon, an idol to her. and seth. . . well, seth was everything that punk despised, and she was almost certain that was how seth felt about punk as well. however since her return she did feel like creating some bigger buzz about her name than simply being around the NXT women's title , appearing with Seth would definitely cause something bigger than a buzz , specially with cm punk whom overwatched cora like a daughter. ' i remember that, but you know - some people after they make it big they tend to forget where they came from... you know like... when you betrayed roman.. ' she grinned at the mention of his betrayal , something cora had done herself in the past but never to cause such a rally like Seth's did.

For a long moment or two Seth didn't say anything to her and only looked into her eyes. It was interesting seeing the younger ones these days coming in through the ranks of nxt. They had talent of which there was no doubt but there were times when they could be rather sure of themselves. "That was a long time ago. " He responded to her truthfully. He then heard her next words and found himself chuckling softly at her. "Fine. How could I ever turn down my adoring public. Tell you what you could even make a surprise entrance when I am out there gloating. Get yourself front row seat and what not. " He said to her with a shrug. "And trust me when I say this I am not one to be afraid back here in nxt. After all that's where I got my big break. " He said to her with a shrug.

seth was definitely the last person cora thought would be around to give her a helping hand, she's lost for words and for a moment it's almost like she forgets to breathe. seth wasn't someone that she was used to seeing around, sometimes cora would forget that she herself was a superstar ( in the making, of course ) but regardless, the little fangirl in her would pop out when she'd see someone she used to admire. and that one person was seth. ' seth? what the - ' words get lost , but the unforgettable voice of her hero , her idol, her wrestling dad as she calls him, cm punk come to mind, seth is supposed to be the enemy, remember that. ' mh, just . ' she turns, her back towards the other, hoping this would be quick enough so no one would spot them and possibly tell punk. ' tie it together? the. . . pink laces. . . by the way, what are you doing here? ' holds the straps on her shoulders tight, eyeing the other from the corner of her eye.

it was not very often that Seth found himself backstage at NXT. With his own wrestling school and other business ventures, it wasn't super often that he found the time to actually travel down to the PC. He walked around backstage, hearing a voice coming from down the hallway. It was coming from the women's locker-room Seth could see Cora popping her head out. "Hey! Ummm, sure! I can try my best." He said, chuckling walking over to the door to greet her. "Tell me, what I need to do."

cora turned slightly, her playful smirk wavering as she caught sight of seth approaching. her heart raced a bit; it had been a while since she’d felt this giddy. she quickly composed herself, leaning her skateboard against her hip and crossing her arms. "oh, look who it is — mr. 'i’m too good for nxt,' she shot back, raising an eyebrow. ' but honestly, it’s kind of refreshing to see a main roster star who doesn't mind getting a little dirt on their hands down here. though, i suppose you might just be here for the spotlight, huh?' she added with a teasing lilt, trying to mask her excitement with sass. ' but hey, if you want to gloat, at least do it while I’m around. i could use the entertainment. '

Seth had arrived in NXT to make a special appearance for tonight's show. It had been some time since he had made his appearance there. When he arrived he was busy for some time and had been touring through the backstage area. He hadn't noticed that someone else was there. That someone else was watching him and speaking. Though he had heard her words and a faint smile spread across his lips. He then decided to make his way towards her from behind her to catch her by surprise. The words had clearly intrigued him. "Is that how it always is ? Do most people come here from the main roster to gloat ?" He asked her from her side gently and teasingly.
