My dad still has not seen Stranger Things. But it's hilarious trying to explain actors to him who are from Stranger Things. I'll be like, ya know David Harbour...from Stranger Things? And to my Dad, David Harbour is Santa (from the movie he didn't get to see and is still salty I didnt go with him to see) or "the funny dad the Red Guy" from Black Widow. Joe Keery is from Free Guy. Gaten Matarazzo is the guest judge on a baking show. Millie Bobby Brown is from Godzilla

Forced To Believe Chapter 14- Money In The Bank 2013
Tumblr media
Chapter Summary: Morgan manages The Shield for their matches. The pressure is on as Morgan competes in her first Diva's Championship match in her hometown against Kaitlyn and AJ Lee.
Words: 6,000+
----
"The doors have opened and fans are getting ready for Money in the bank! We are just about 29 minutes away from the show. This is the kickoff show." Josh announced. "It is time for the WWE Tag Team Championship match."
'Ding Ding Ding'
"This match is set for one fall, and it is for the WWE tag team championships!" Justin announced as the crowd cheered. "Introducing the challengers, at the combined weight of 479 pounds, Jimmy and Jey, the Usos!"
"It is electric inside the Wells Fargo Center. Welcome to the WWE Kickoff." Cole said as The Usos made their way to the ring.
'Sierra'
'Hotel'
'India'
'Echo'
'Lima'
'Delta'
'Shield'
The crowd gave The Shield a loud reception as Morgan walked out with Roman and Seth. Morgan grinned at the crowd as she saw them cheering. Some yell 'Welcome home!'
"And their opponents, representing The Shield, accompanied by Philadelphia's own Morgan Lopez, at the combined weight of 482 pounds. They are the current WWE Tag Team Champions, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns!" 
Morgan looked around the arena, proud to be back home. 
"Philadelphia is especially loud tonight because of Morgan who is set to compete tonight in a triple threat match against AJ Lee and Kaitlyn for the Diva's Championship. You do not want to miss that," Cole said as she walked to ringside while Roman and Seth got in the ring and raised their titles at the Usos.
"This is gonna be one heck of a night," King said.
"Let's go, guys! You got this!" Morgan cheered
Jey and Seth go against each other as Jey keeps pinning Seth. Seth backs up near his corner and Roman tags himself in. 
"Dean Ambrose is preparing for his money in the bank match but we have Philly's diva, Morgan out here to support her team," Cole informed.
"That's right, and I am looking forward to the triple threat match for the Diva's Championship," JBL said as the match went on with Jey tagging in Jimmy. "What a match that is going to be. There is a lot of pressure on Morgan. She is in her hometown and if she wins, all members of The Shield will have gold. Think about the history that will make for The Shield. That is a lot to take in. We'll see if she can do it later on tonight." 
The Usos hit Roman with a suplex and an elbow drop. Jimmy takes control of Roman for a while before tagging back in Jey and they give him a face drop. 
Jey throws Roman to the ropes but he stops himself. He runs to kick him but Seth pulls Roman out of the ring as Morgan walks over to them. "Looks like The Shield needs to regroup," Cole said
"You all right?" Morgan asked as Roman nodded and held his mouth. 
Later on, with Roman and Jey legal in the match, Jey gets on the apron and punches Seth off the apron when he tries to attack him. Taking advantage, Roman strikes Jey with a clothesline, flipping him over as he falls to the floor at ringside. 
"That's what I'm talking about!" Morgan praised. 
"Roman Reigns just almost decapitated­-wow what a clothesline." JBL said.
Roman and Seth continue to tag each other in and out to take control of Jey. 
As he was about to make the tag to Jimmy, Rollins pulled Jimmy off the apron. "Great move by Rollins!" Cole looked on.
Rollins walks back to his corner and gives Morgan a high five while Roman throws Jey out of the ring. Morgan laughs when Rollins hits him with a clothesline. 
"Looks like Morgan is enjoying this." King said.
"The Hounds of Justice is now where they want to be. In complete control." Cole added. 
Jimmy gets tagged in as he jumps on top of Roman and Seth as the crowd goes wild. Morgan looks in shock as he unloads on Roman with strikes. Seth tries to attack him but gets thrown into the barricade. 
Throwing him in the ring, Jimmy hits Rollins with a crossbody and pins him for a 2 count. 
"Yes!" Morgan yelled as she jumped up
"And Morgan is thrilled Rollins kicked out of that." King observed. 
Jimmy gets on the turnbuckle but Rollins attacks him to buy himself time. He gets on the turnbuckle about to hit him a suplex but Jey gets in the ring and gets on the apron to help his brother out. 
"Roman! Do something!" Morgan yelled as she started to look concerned.
Roman runs into the ring and positions himself to hit them with a big powerbomb as they all fall. The arena erupted in cheers. 
"You got to be kidding me!" Cole exclaimed as Morgan looked on in awe. "Philly just exploded!" 
Rollins pins Jimmy but he kicks out. 
"You got to be kidding me." Rollins said to the ref. He goes to tag in Roman but Jey pulls him off the apron.
"Are you kidding me?!" Morgan shouted and began yelling at Jey. "Not cool man! Not cool!"
"Shield getting a taste of their own medicine," Cole said. 
Rollins gets kicked by Jimmy and is hit with a big splash. He gets pinned but Roman saves it. Jey throws him out of the ring but Roman hits him with a Superman punch. Rollins hits Jimmy with a powerbomb to the turnbuckle as Roman spears him for the win. 
Morgan grins as Seth and Roman give each other a bro hug.
"The winners of this match and still tag team champions, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns," Justin announced as Morgan looked on proudly, getting in the ring to give them each a bro hug. 
The three exit the ring and Rollins & Reigns get on top of the Spanish table, raising their titles. Morgan got on the table as Ambrose joined them, having their fists out. 
"And The Shield are accompanied by the 4th member, Dean Ambrose. And tonight, maybe Morgan might be Divas Champion which will make The Shield have all the titles." Cole said as the tag champs left while Ambrose and Morgan got in the ring.
"You ready?" she asked with a smile as he gave her a smirk and nodded. 
The two waited for the show to officially begin as the kickoff show was signing off.
Ambrose walked around the ring while Morgan sat on top of the turnbuckle. She looked around as the hometown feeling set in. She even spotted her family and Leah, waving to them as her mom blew her a kiss.
Ambrose walked right over to Morgan, giving her a long kiss as the crowd erupted in cheers. 
Once the show was about to begin, The Shield's theme played as Ambrose looked up at the briefcase. Morgan got off the turnbuckle to stand with Ambrose to the side, holding his hand. 
Fandango's theme comes on as Summer Rae comes out dancing. The crowd began doing the Fandango dance as Fandango walked out to dance with Summer. After their routine, they begin walking down to the ring.
Melanie gave Danielle a nod of approval on the dance and got a brief smile from her in return before she went back to her mean girl character. The practice paid off a lot and Melanie was proud to see her doing so well. 
Morgan leaned on the ropes while Ambrose sat on the lowest turnbuckle, with his championship in his hands. The Money In The Bank intro came on as the fireworks erupted and the crowd cheered 
"This is Money In The Bank. You are looking live at the sold out Wells Fargo Center in Philly. We're not wasting any time, it's Money In The Bank Time." Cole said as Fandango's theme came back on
'Ding Ding Ding'
"The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is the World Heavyweight Championship contract money in the bank ladder match. Introducing first...weighing in at 244 pounds...Fandango!" Lillian announced.
"Dean Ambrose doesn't seem impressed by Fandango's dancing skills," JBL observed as Ambrose gave Fandango a blank stare.
"Including his sinister vixen, Morgan," Cole added.
The Shield's theme surrounded the arena and Ambrose stood up. "Next, weighing in 225 pounds, he is the United States champion, Dean Ambrose!" Lillian announced as Ambrose taunted the crowd while Morgan cheered for him.
"Ambrose cut his teeth here in the Philadelphia area, he'll be one of the favorites, at least for this crowd here tonight in this match up." Cole said.
The Real American's theme comes on as Zeb, Antonio Cesaro, and Jack Swagger walk out. 
"Being accompanied by Zeb Colter, first, weighing in at 232 pounds, Antonio Cesaro. And weighing in at 275 pounds, Jack Swagger!" Lillian announced.
"You know I find it very fitting to be in our nation's birth place. Walking the same streets as Ben Franklin, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, but I can assure you that if they were here tonight, they would be absolutely disgusted at what they see." Zeb lectured as the crowd booed. "I mean it's one thing to allow thousands of criminals to sneak across our borders, it's another thing to see those same deviants take over entire cities. You know Betsy Ross was designing the US flag, and sewing on the stars and stripes, maybe she should of sewed on maybe a taco or a burrito!"
Morgan and Ambrose glance at each other, looking confused as they stand next to each other. 
"Shame on you America! Shame on you Philadelphia! But tonight is a night for redemption. Because two Real Americans, Jack Swagger, or Antonio Cesaro, they will climb that ladder and they will claim that briefcase and that contract. Because that contract is more than a contract to us, it is a key, a key to taking our nation back. So, ladies and gentlemen rise and stand up, put your hand over your heart and say in a loud clear voice with us, We the people!" Zeb exclaimed.
"I thought Philadelphia was favored for cheesesteaks, not tacos," King said as Team Rhodes Scholars walked out and Morgan got out of the ring.
"Maybe Betsy Ross liked burritos?" JBL asked
"Weighing in at 215 pounds Cody Rhodes! And weighing in at 247 pounds, Damien Sandow!"
Damien had a mic in his hand. "Unlike Mister Colter, I don't see you as criminals. Just slack job mouth breathers." Damien insulted the crowd as the crowd booed. "SILENCE!"
Morgan shook her head in amusement while Damien gave the mic to Cody. 
"Not only are you going to witness the crowning of a future champion, but also-­"
Damien grabbed the mic again, interrupting him. "Also after tonight, this town will not be famous for that fictional ignoramus Rocky Balboa," he said as the boos got louder. "But its name will be either Damien Sandow and­-"
'God Save Our Queen!'
Wade Barrett's theme comes on, cutting off Damien. 
"What's he mean fictional?" King asked.
"And from Preston, England, weighing in at 246 pounds, Wade Barrett!" 
"Wade Barrett entering his second money in the bank ladder match. Out of all the participants to get the contract for the world heavyweight championship only one of these guys has actually won and that was
Jack Swagger who cashed in 3 years ago to become world champion." Cole informed
'Ding Ding Ding!'
Summer Rae, wearing a black dress, claps for Fandango as he dances in the middle of the ring. Wade tries to clothesline him but he moves out of the way and starts hitting him with punches. Morgan watches as Cody and Damien hit Ambrose with a ladder. Meanwhile, Swagger and Cesaro hit Wade and Fandango with a ladder. 
"What's unique about this match is that there are two teams, two pairs of friends in this match," Cole said. 
Morgan and Summer Rae watch as the Real Americans take out Damien and Cody. As Swagger gets up on a ladder in the middle of the ring, Ambrose quickly runs in, grabs his leg, and brings him down off the ladder. He throws him to the turnbuckle and starts delivering punches. 
"Dean Ambrose participating in his first Money in the Bank ladder match but it's no doubt, Ambrose is used to this chaotic style," Cole added
"Including Philly's diva, Morgan. She doesn't seem too worried about Ambrose in this match." King said as JBL and Cole agreed. Ambrose throws Swagger out and he positions that ladder in the middle of the ring. Before he can climb up Wade attacks him from behind as Ambrose crawls under the ladder. "Oh, that's bad luck, he just crawled under the ladder."
Wade positions Ambrose in between that ladder and starts delivering hard kicks. Then, he hits him with a big boot, making Ambrose and the ladder fall down. Wade picks him up and throws him out of the ring. Morgan winces at the sight as Fandango gives Wade a leg drop while the ladder is on top of him.
"Yep...that's gotta hurt." Morgan murmured.
"Come on baby! Come on!" Summer cheered
The crowd starts chanting 'Summer Rae'. Fandango tries to make it up the ladder but Sandow grabs his legs as Cody gets on top of the turnbuckle. Ambrose gets in the ring with a ladder and hits Cody off the turnbuckle. He leans the ladder on the turnbuckle but gets his leg pulled by Wade. He falls on his face and is dragged out of the ring. Wade spears Ambrose into the ring and starts stomping on him. Wade breaks off a piece of the ladder near the ramp and gets in the ring to start hitting Sandow with it as the crowd erupts in 'Ohs'
"Come on!" Wade yelled and dropped the piece of the ladder. He gets on top of the ladder and touches the briefcase while Ambrose gets back in the ring.
"Now it's Ambrose climbing up the ladder!" Cole exclaimed.
Antonio gets in the ring as Swagger grabs Wade down to get elbowed by Cesaro.
"Good grief!" JBL exclaimed as Swagger and Cesaro tried to grab Ambrose off the ladder. "Dean Ambrose hanging on for dear life."
Swagger grabs Ambrose but Ambrose counters with a DDT on the mat while Morgan looks relieved. As Cesaro climbs the ladder, Dean quickly rushes back up and they punch each other back and forth. But then
Cesaro grabs Ambrose into a choke hold as he kicks his legs. Morgan looks on with worry as Ambrose starts to fade. Cesaro drops him as he falls and rolls out of the ring. Morgan quickly rushes to him to check on him. 
Meanwhile, Wade hits Swagger with an elbow on top of the ladder as he falls. He is about to get the briefcase but Fandango rushes in and gives him a powerbomb off the ladder as the crowd erupts in 'Ohs'
Summer Rae starts cheering for Fandango as he slowly climbs up the ladder but Ambrose punches him. 
"Can you imagine Dean Ambrose as World Champion with The Shield backing him?" JBL asked as Ambrose hit Fandango with his finisher off the ladder.
Morgan jumped for joy and taunted Summer Rae who dropped her jaw, "Top that!" she blew the dancer a kiss, adding insult to injury. 
Ambrose climbs the ladder but then Cesaro puts the ladder up as he tries to hold on. Swagger grabs him off the ladder but Ambrose hits him with elbows and fights back. Suddenly, Dean puts the ladder on his head and starts hitting the Real Americans with it.
"That's what I'm talking about, baby! Hah, hah!" Morgan cheered
"Are you kidding?" King asked
"Look at this!" Cole exclaimed
"Windmill."
"He's not all there is he boys?" JBL asked as Ambrose hit Cody with the ladder.
"I don't know but it makes him effective," Cole said
Swagger and Cesaro grab the ladder by the end as Ambrose holds on and lifts himself up. "Look at this!"
King exclaimed as the crowd erupted in 'Ohs' again.
"Friggin A!" Morgan exclaimed.
"Oh my God!" Cole yelled
"Oh my goodness!" JBL chuckled as Ambrose lifted himself up. "Drop the ladder boys!"
Ambrose balances himself on top of the ladder and tries to reach for the briefcase. 
"You got to be kidding me! This is insane!" Cole yelled. Swagger and Cesaro drop Ambrose outside the ring. "Great athletic move by Ambrose but it may have cost him."
Morgan rushes over to Ambrose. "That was freaking awesome." She said in his ear and stayed by his side. She held Ambrose in her arms as he tried to get his energy back. Meanwhile, Morgan watched as Swagger held Cesaro on his shoulders and slowly walked near the briefcase. "Wow..."
Cody jumps on the ropes and kicks Swagger as everyone falls. As a result, the crowd began chanting 'This is awesome!' 
Cody hit Fandango and Wade with the Cross Rhodes as the crowd cheers loudly for him. He grabs a big ladder and pushes it inside the ring. Morgan releases Ambrose and watches the match. As Ambrose recovers, Summer Rae walks up to him and slaps him in the face. 
"Seriously!?" Morgan shouted.
"That was for earlier! My baby is going to win this!" Summer shouted back with a proud grin.
Morgan starts running after her as Summer shrieks. 
"Oh boy!" Cole exclaimed as the crowd cheered for Morgan and started chanting her name.
Fandango gets in front of Morgan as she stumbles back.
"You dare chase my dancer?" Fandango sneered
"You're A friggin' right, I just did." She taunted him by doing the Fandango dance and he looked disgusted by her dancing. She hits him with a punch in the face as he stumbles back and holds his jaw. "Ooh, did that hurt?"
Fandango glared at her and started to run after her. 
"Morgan better get out of here," King warned. 
Morgan gets her waist grabbed by Ambrose as they look at each other for a few seconds. He turns to Fandango who is running towards them. As Fandango runs, Ambrose hits him with a clothesline.
"And Ambrose saves Morgan," Cole said as Ambrose gave Fandango a death glare.
"Looks like Fandango got the message to never mess with Dean Ambrose's woman," King chuckled.
"I owe you!" Morgan said to Dean with a smile, high fiving him.
"You can by destroying that woman," he replied
"Will do on NXT. Now go get that briefcase!"
"There's a lot of carnage at ringside," King observed. 
Cody climbs on top of the ladder but Ambrose runs in the ring and climbs it too and they start punching each other back and forth. Cody starts pulling Ambrose up the ladder and grabs him.
"See ya bye!" Cody yelled and threw Ambrose off the ladder. 
All of a sudden, Roman and Seth run into the ring and start ganging up on Cody as Morgan cheers for them.
"Rollins and Reigns, The Shield are out here but this is a no DQ match!" Cole exclaimed.
"It's all legal," JBL said.
"Come on, this is not right," King said as Roman beat on Cody.
"I can't say I'm surprised," Cole replied. 
Rollins gives Wade a kick in the head as he gets on the apron. Fandango runs in but gets speared by Reigns. Rollins and Reigns help Ambrose up as he slowly climbs the ladder.
"Are you kidding me!?" Morgan yelled as The Usos attacked Rollins and Reigns. They fight outside the ring as the other participants gang up on the tag champs.
"All hell has broken loose!" Cole exclaimed while Ambrose climbed on top of the ladder.
"Common Dean!" Morgan shouted 
But then Cody pushes the ladder as Ambrose falls on top of everyone and the crowd erupts in claps.
"It's Cody's time!" Cole announced. But then Sandow pushes Cody off the ring and grabs the briefcase to win the match. "Sandow is Mister Money in The Bank."
"Here is your winner! Damien Sandow!" Lillian announced
"There is no brotherly love tonight. Damien has double crossed his friend." Cole looked on.
"He is about to be the next world champion," JBL said.

'WWE Exclusive Video'
Ambrose is walking backstage with his title. "Dean," Morgan called out as she jogged up to him.
"The boys and I will be with you," he informed
"Yeah...about that." She rubbed the back of her neck. "I don't want you guys there at ringside. Look, I know you have my back but I really need to do this by myself. Okay? I know Layla will be with Kaitlyn and Big E will be with AJ but I need to do this alone, just like you, Seth and Roman did when you got your titles at Extreme Rules."
Smirking, Dean nodded. "Fine. Show them why we chose you to be a part of The Shield."
"I will. Thank you. I gotta go." She pressed her lips against his and walked away while he watched her proudly.
----
Melanie had on a black top, similar to Kaitlyn's attire but with dark purple designs. She also has on dark purple pants, black fingerless gloves and dark purple nail polish, since her father loves purple. 
"This should do," Melanie said to herself as she was waiting at the gorilla with the others. 
"Aw, so cute!" Layla said with a grin.
"Haha, thanks."
"Morgan, AJ, Kaitlyn, you're up in 5." it was announced
"Yay! It's time, come on." April cheered and grabbed her title.
Kaitlyn, April and Melanie gathered in a circle, holding hands. 
"Tonight is a special night. We're wrestling against each other. It's a hell of a privilege. And no matter what happens, we're gonna tear the roof off the place and make it one of the best diva matches, in history. May the best woman, win." Melanie said as they embraced in a group hug.
------
'Ding Ding Ding'
"This match is set for one fall and it is for the Divas Championship!" Lilian announced as the crowd cheered loudly. 
'Morgan Morgan Morgan' chants fill the arena.
'I've had enough I'm taking you down!'
Morgan's theme came on as she walked out with a big smile on her face at the loud reception. 
"Introducing one of the challengers, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania! Philadelphia's own! Morgan Lopez!"
"And Philly just exploded! When's the last time we heard this loud reception for a diva in Philadelphia?" JBL asked.
"Oh, I love this city," Morgan said and had her right hand up. She twirls around, taking it all in. 
"No matter what, I love her twirls." King looked on happily.
She looked at all the fan signs which consisted of words like:
'Turl for me Morgan!' 
'Welcome home Morgan!' 
'Philly's own diva is back home!' 
'The Shield's girl is back!' 
'Morgan will get the 1! 2! 3!' 
'Give me a backfire Morgan!' 
She also saw different fan signs with her name and different designs and pictures of her. She felt appreciated and touched that she was admired by Philly so much. She walks down the ramp, tagging hands from the right side and then walks back to tag more hands on the left. She continues to tag hands around the ringside until she sees her family.
"I'm so proud of you!" her mother said with a grin and gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. 
"Morgan's family and friends out here to support her. So much love here for this diva." Cole observed
After she hugs her family and friends, she gets in the ring and gets on the turnbuckle as she has her right hand up. 
"Let's go!" Morgan yelled over louder cheers and chants of her name. "It's my time!"
"Do you think it's a good idea for Morgan to be alone while her opponents have people in their corner?" King asked as she positioned herself to sit on top of the turnbuckle. 
"King, do you really think Ambrose is going to leave Morgan alone like that? He is going to find a way to help her if she really needs it." JBL said. "That being said, The Shield trusts Morgan's judgment. If she is in a pinch they will assist but I believe she has everything handled and will prove herself tonight."
'Let's Light it up!'
AJ skips out with her Diva's Championship around her waist as Big E walks behind her. 
"Being accompanied by Big E Langston, from Union City, New Jersey, she is the Divas Champion, AJ Lee!" 
"AJ Lee better kiss the title goodbye because the mood that Kaitlyn's in, and the determination of Morgan, AJ's reign might be short lived," Cole said.
"The queen of Crazyville." King looked as AJ raised her title and skipped around with it, giving Morgan a crazed smile. 
"Oh grin all you want, grin all you want because it'll be the last time you do." Morgan pointed at her.
"Morgan can't wait to get her hands on her," JBL said.
"Introducing the next challenger, accompanied by Layla, from Houston, Texas, Kaitlyn!"
Kaitlyn walked out with Layla as the crowd gave her a nice reception. On the titantron, it shows the highlights of the first-ever Divas Championship contract signing. Morgan smirked when she saw herself giving Kaitlyn the backfire.
"Even though Morgan gave Kaitlyn a backfire, she really did prove her point, Kaitlyn and AJ can't just focus on each other, Morgan is in this match as well and they do need to watch their back or else." Cole reminded as his broadcast partners agreed. 
The ref raises up the Diva's title and puts it down.
'Ding Ding Ding'
Morgan exhales as she watches AJ and Kaitlyn go at it. She stands up on the turnbuckle and hits them both with a crossbody as the crowd cheers for her. 
"Come on!" Morgan exclaimed. "Let's go!"
"Amazing crossbody!" Cole praised. 
Morgan grabs Kaitlyn and tosses her to the turnbuckle. She runs to give her a clothesline. All of a sudden, AJ comes up behind Morgan and grabs her by the hair to pull her down the mat. The Philly diva holds her head in pain before AJ tosses her out of the ring as she gets out too. 
"Oh! Right to the steps!" Cole exclaimed as AJ threw Morgan to the steel steps.
"I think she intends to really hurt her. But this is smart, get rid of the favorite early on. Morgan will feed off the chants and energy. Smart move by AJ Lee." King looked on.
"I agree, very smart move," JBL replied.
As Morgan recovers, Kaitlyn and AJ fight outside the ring. Kaitlyn picks her up but AJ quickly gets out of the hold and throws her to the ring post. Kaitlyn cries out in pain as she holds her elbow in a black brace. The champ lets out a crazy laugh but as soon as she turns around, she gets clotheslined by Morgan. 
"What a clothesline by Philly's own diva!" King exclaimed.
"Woo hoo! Let's go, my baby!" Jane yelled
"Yeah! Go, Morgan!" Leah cheered
Morgan grins and gives them both a high five.
"Give her no mercy!" Jane yelled, getting into it.
"Looks like Morgan's mother is enjoying this." Cole chuckled.
"Mama Lopez sure is," King laughed.
Morgan throws Kaitlyn inside the ring and pins her to get a 2 count. She puts Kaitlyn in a headlock but she breaks out of it and quickly picks her up for the gutbuster. Kaitlyn pins her but AJ runs it to break it up.
"Close call, I thought it was over." King looked on.
Morgan rolls over to the end of the ring, on the apron, near the commentators as AJ takes control of Kaitlyn. AJ gives Kaitlyn some arm submissions but she grabs the ropes. Kaitlyn fights back and pushes AJ to the ropes near the commentators. Morgan stands on the apron outside the ring and as Kaitlyn runs towards AJ for a spear, AJ moves out of the way. 
'Oh!' The crowd yelled as Morgan was speared off the apron and fell down hard. 
"Kaitlyn was going for AJ but speared Morgan instead. Wow, what a spear." Cole said.
'Gosh, that hurt.' Melanie thought as she held her stomach. Celeste could be brutal with those spears. 
Morgan bangs her hand on the floor in frustration. Meanwhile, in the ring, AJ hits Kaitlyn with a kick to the face and gives her another arm submission. Kaitlyn got up with her on her back and she ran backwards to the turnbuckle to get AJ off her back but she still held on. Morgan gets back in the ring and attacks Kaitlyn with a spinning kick to the face as she falls backward on the mat with AJ still on her back. 
"Beautiful kick!" King exclaimed as Morgan pinned Kaitlyn for a 2 count.
As all 3 women recover, AJ runs towards Kaitlyn but gets hit by an elbow. Morgan runs towards Kaitlyn but gets a shoulder tackle as she backflips in the air, landing on her face, selling the move flawlessly.
"Jeesh!" JBL yelled
"She just sent Morgan flipping! We gotta see that again," Cole exclaimed as the titantron replayed Kaitlyn's shoulder tackle. 
"So much power." King watched on. 
Kaitlyn picks up Morgan, hitting her with a backward DDT, and pins her for a 2 count. AJ and Kaitlyn go at it again and she hits Kaitlyn with a knee to the arm, hurting her. Morgan gets up but gets caught in AJ's Black Widow.
"Crap!" Morgan shouted as the crowd got hyped. 
"Oh no! Morgan's caught! Morgan's caught! She's caught!" Cole exclaimed. 
The fans stomp their feet on the floor, trying to motivate her as she gets on her knees.
"I think she's fading. This may be it," King called in a wary tone.
"Do you submit!?" The ref asked.
"Tap~" AJ exclaimed
"No!" Morgan screamed and desperately tried to move to the ropes which she slowly did.
"She did it! This match still rolls on." King exclaimed
"Morgan had said she did some extra stretching on her arms for this match. Smart move." JBL recalled.
Morgan recovers and kicks AJ in the gut as she falls down. She throws her out the ring and throws her to the steel steps. 
"Little bit of payback from earlier," Cole said. But when Morgan turns around, Kaitlyn runs towards her. The Philly's diva dodges her attack and pushes her to the steel steps as the crowd cheers at the impact. "Wow! That was a close one."
Morgan turns around and catches her breath near the ring. But when she turns around, she gets speared by Kaitlyn. 
"Another spear! Wow!" JBL shouted. "Never take your eyes off Kaitlyn!"
Kaitlyn picks her up and throws her to the steel steps as Morgan holds her head in pain. AJ attacks Kaitlyn from behind and throws her back into the ring. AJ turns her attention to Morgan who is getting up and decides to strike her down with a spinning kick to the face. Morgan holds her mouth in pain and starts to slam her feet on the floor repeatedly since she didn't block the kick in time. 
"AJ really doesn't want Morgan in this match," King said. "She's so brutal."
AJ gets back in the ring but gets speared by Kaitlyn but she hurts her arm in the process. AJ recovers and catches the Hybrid Diva in the black widow. 
"Kaitlyn's caught!" Cole exclaimed
Morgan quickly gets in the ring and pulls AJ off of her but then AJ gets on Morgan's back and bites her ear. 
"Ow!" Morgan shouted and threw her off of her as she held her ear. "Are you kidding me you freak!?"
AJ glares at her and launches at her but Morgan moves out of the way as she gets clotheslined by Kaitlyn. Morgan and Kaitlyn start giving each other punches as the crowd cheers 'Yay!' for Morgan, and  'Boo' for Kaitlyn. She then spears Morgan out of the ring. 
"I am not gonna have any kids, now!" Morgan groaned, clenching her stomach. 
As she quickly recuperates, Morgan grabs Kaitlyn and pushes her to the WWE announce table.
"Uh oh. This is getting very physical." Cole said as Morgan and Kaitlyn started fighting around against the table. 
"Jeesh, they are just unloading on each other," King exclaimed as they got on top of the table. "This is getting dangerous."
"Oh no, I don't like this. Something bad is about to happen." Cole looked on. 
Morgan's back is to the Spanish announce table as she and Kaitlyn are still on top of the WWE announce table. She starts hitting Kaitlyn with elbows but then Kaitlyn kicks her in the stomach and turns around to walk to the end of the table. 
"Oh no-­OH MY GOSH!" Cole yelled as Kaitlyn speared Morgan onto the Spanish announce table, breaking the table in the process as the crowd went wild.
'This is awesome' surrounds the arena. 
Melanie smiled to herself hearing the chant. Mission accomplished. 
"Morgan has been speared by Kaitlyn 4 times. I'm afraid of a 5th one. How much more can she take from those spears?" Cole wondered
AJ drags Kaitlyn back into the ring as they keep wrestling. Morgan is still hurt and hasn't been in the ring for a while and the crowd starts to boo because of it. They start to chant 'We want Morgan.'
"Gosh...Morgan still isn't moving." King said with concern.
"Kaitlyn knocked the wind out of her. Morgan may be knocked out." Cole said. 
The crowd seriously starts to boo when the refs and a doctor check on her. Morgan gets up slightly as she coughs and holds her stomach.
"We have to see that again," King said and the titantron showed Kaitlyn spearing Morgan to the Spanish announce table. Morgan finally gets up and the crowd starts to cheer loudly.
"Come on, we need to take you backstage." The doctor said.
"No way, I'm continuing this match. No pain is going to stop me. I got this." she winced in pain. "I've felt worse."
"So much heart in Morgan, I can't believe she is continuing this match up." Cole said
"Morgan looks hurt. I don't think she should continue." JBL looked on.
"Never doubt Morgan." King reminded as she slid into the ring and waited for AJ and Kaitlyn to turn around. 
She runs towards them and gives them a double clothesline. As AJ gets up, Morgan gives her another clothesline and the same with Kaitlyn. Picking Kaitlyn up, she hits her with a backfire. 
"That's it! That's it! It's over! Pin her Morgan!" King yelled.
Morgan is about to pin her but AJ screams as she grabs her hair and throws her down. 
"Why won't you stay down!? Why won't you just go away!?" AJ screamed and got on top of her, unloading on her angrily. Getting off of her, she continued to freak out, "You are nothing, Morgan! Nothing! You will never take this title away from me!" 
As Morgan stands up, AJ catches her in the Black Widow again. "Tap! Tap!" AJ screamed. "Tap out!"
"Do you submit?!" The ref asked as Morgan started to shed tears.
"Come on Morgan!" Leah yelled.
"I don't think Morgan can take much more of this, she's hurt. Really hurt. I think this is over." Cole looked on
"You will never take this title from me! NEVER!" AJ screamed.
Morgan manages to make it to the ropes which makes the crowd relieved. AJ lets go and starts to have a fit. She starts screaming and banging on the mat while Morgan is lying down, face first, on the mat, exhausted. 
"Why is she so persistent!?" AJ yelled at the ref.
"Morgan has been manhandled in this match. She's been speared onto the Spanish announce table, kicked hard in the face, thrown into the steel steps, been hit with finishers, submissions, and even bitten in the ear, what makes this woman never want to give up?" Cole asked in awe.
"It's her hometown. She wants to win." JBL said.
As Morgan is recovering, AJ takes her frustrations out on Kaitlyn as she gives her a shining wizard and throws her out of the ring. As AJ is distracted, Morgan quickly gets up and gives her a backbreaker from behind. She gets in her submission position as the crowd goes wild. 
"And she now calls this move, the breakdown," Cole informed
"She's breaking AJ down all right," King said as Morgan started leaning back more as AJ screamed in pain.
"Gosh, she got that move locked on tight."
"Tap out!" Morgan yelled
"Morgan is gonna win! Morgan is gonna win! Will AJ tap?!" Cole exclaimed as the crowd started cheering loudly.
"Oh, and Kaitlyn breaks it up," JBL said as Kaitlyn kicked Morgan. She throws Morgan out of the ring and gives AJ the gutbuster. "I think it's over."
"1!"
"2!" The ref began but Morgan quickly got in the ring to break it up.
"Morgan will not lose like that. Her will to win is strong. But is there anything left?" King questioned. 
Morgan pushes her hair back and is sweating while breathing heavily. AJ rolls out the ring while Morgan sets Kaitlyn up for the backfire. Kaitlyn ends up countering with a gutbuster. 
"1!"
"2!"
"OH!" The crowd exclaimed as Morgan kicked out again.
"Kick out, after kick out, after kick out!" Cole shouted. "These women are exhausted. They are truly giving it their all."
Kaitlyn picks up her again with the intention of hitting her with another gutbuster to seal the deal.  
"Look at this Look at this!" King yelled as Morgan got out of her hold and gave her a quick backfire as the crowd jumped up in excitement.
"Pin her Morgan! Inches away!" JBL exclaimed as she slowly crawled over to her.
"1!"
"2!"
"3!"
"Yes!" Morgan screamed as loud cheers surrounded the arena along with her theme song. 
"Philly just exploded once again!" Cole exclaimed as she rolled away from Kaitlyn while holding her stomach. 
Jane and Leah jump for joy and hug each other. 
"She did it! She did it! All members of The Shield have gold!" King exclaimed 
"Here is your winner and the new WWE Diva's Champion, Morgan Lopez!" Lilian announced happily.
"This was an awesome match. These ladies gave it their all." JBL said.
The ref presented her with the title and she looked at it with a big smile.
"Friggin' A! Friggin' A, man!" She stood up and got her hand raised. "This is my yard! Yeah!"
"A lot of emotion in this match," Cole said as she got out of the ring to hug her family.
"You did it!" Morgan's father happily praised.
After she celebrates with her family, she gets back in the ring and on the turnbuckle to raise her new title up. AJ who finally realized what just happened, started screaming at her. 
As Morgan gets down from the turnbuckle, AJ gets in the ring and runs towards her but she moves out of the way, making AJ fall outside the ring. Big E helps her up. 
"Get her!" AJ ordered
"Oh come on, you lost the match AJ," King exclaimed.
"Do something, I dare you," Morgan provoked Big E, not backing down as he got into the ring. 
The crowd began to cheer loudly when backup arrived as The Shield came to the ring just before Big E could attack her. 
"I knew Ambrose wasn't gonna let Morgan go through this alone!" JBL said as Big E got speared by Reigns. 
"Spear!" Cole exclaimed as Morgan looked happy to see her boys come to her aid.
Ambrose shot Big E an angry look and nodded at Rollins and Reigns. Roman roars and the three hit him with the triple powerbomb.
"Do the honors?" Rollins asked Morgan as he and Reigns picked Big E up.
"Don't you dare Morgan!" AJ shouted as she got on the apron.
"Hold that thought," Morgan replied and grabbed AJ by the hair, pulling her into the ring. 
AJ crawls around in the ring and gets back on her feet. When she bumped into Ambrose, she shrieked and turned around to get clotheslined by Morgan. 
"She deserved that." Cole declared. 
Morgan picks her up and hits her with the backfire. She turns to Big E and strikes him down with a kick in the face as the crowd cheers.
"Thank you." Morgan grinned as she wrapped her arms around Ambrose, embracing him as The Shield's theme came on.
"All the members of The Shield have gold now," Cole announced as Roman picked up Morgan to have her sit on his shoulders. 
"Believe in The Shield!" Roman shouted. 
"Amazing match up," JBL said.
"Very. Morgan is the new champ! Congratulations!" King praised.
'Backstage'
"Morgan, how does it feel to win your first title in the WWE?" Renee asked.
Morgan let out a laugh, proudly putting the title on her shoulder. "I told you. I told everybody, it'll only be a matter of time before I get the 1, 2, 3. And I did it. And winning this championship...it's unreal. Friggin' A! Kaitlyn and AJ gave me hell but all that pain and suffering was worth it. All those spears, all those kicks...worth it. I can't wait to continue to prove that this title win, wasn't a fluke, and The Shield will continue to hold all the gold. And make everyone believe...believe in The Shield." She winked and walked away.

Joel Embiid breaks Wilt Chamberlain's 76ers record with a 70-point game.
The Process Unleashed: Embiid Erupts with 70 Points, Shattering 76ers Record
The Philadelphia 76ers faithful erupted Monday night, not just from the thunderous dunks and silky post moves, but from witnessing history unfold before their eyes. Joel Embiid, the man affectionately nicknamed "The Process," unleashed an offensive torrent unlike any seen in recent memory, pouring in a career-high 70 points to not only lead the 76ers to a 133-123 victory over the San Antonio Spurs, but to etch his name forever in Philadelphia's basketball lore.
Embiid's performance was a masterclass in offensive dominance. He was unstoppable down low, bullying defenders with his signature blend of power and finesse. He drained fadeaway jumpers with effortless grace, and even surprised with a newfound confidence from beyond the arc, knocking down four three-pointers on the night. The energy in the Wells Fargo Center was electric, with every basket met with an eruption of cheers and chants of "MVP! MVP!"
This wasn't just any 70-point game; it was a historic feat. Embiid surpassed Wilt Chamberlain's 68-point franchise record, a mark that had stood for nearly 55 years. The "Big Dipper," a legend not only in Philadelphia but throughout the NBA, had cast a long shadow over 76ers basketball history. But on Monday night, Embiid stepped out of that shadow and into the spotlight, claiming his own place in the team's pantheon of greats.
Embiid's scoring spree wasn't a lone wolf effort. He received stellar support from his teammates, with James Harden contributing 25 points and Tobias Harris adding 17. But this night belonged to Embiid. He was the conductor of the Philadelphia symphony, orchestrating the offense with a blend of power and precision that left the Spurs defense bewildered and the fans ecstatic.
The significance of Embiid's achievement transcends mere statistics. It represents the culmination of years of hard work and dedication. Drafted as a raw, injury-prone prospect, Embiid has transformed himself into one of the most dominant forces in the NBA. He's the face of the franchise, the cornerstone of their hopes for a championship. And on Monday night, he proved that he's not just talented, he's historic.
Embiid's 70-point performance will be remembered for years to come. It was a night of raw athleticism, unbridled joy, and a city united in its celebration of a basketball icon. It was the night Joel Embiid became more than just a player; he became a legend.
Here are some additional points you may want to consider including in your content:
The reactions of Embiid and his teammates to the record-breaking performance.
The historical context of Wilt Chamberlain's record and what it means to have surpassed it.
The impact of Embiid's performance on the 76ers' playoff chances.
The overall significance of this game for the city of Philadelphia and its basketball fans.
