I've always wanted to do an NXT story and so this is my...(Counts the number in my head) second (cough) lie (cough) attempt at this.
(Wednesday October 26, 2016: NXT- Take Over Toronto Three Weeks Away)
Jade Washington didn't grow up in a loving family. Her stepfather was an abusive ass and would constantly beat her brother, while her mother constantly coddled her. This made Jade dislike her mother even more than her stepfather, in fact Jade hated her parents so much so that she would wake up dripping in sweat from dreams of her parents dying in various scenarios.
Her real father on the other hand, had abandoned the family. Her mother claimed that he cheated on her but Jade had always known the truth, which is why the moment she was old enough, she left home. Jade ran away from home at the age of eighteen. She got a part time job at Primal MMA School and one of the instructors offered to train her for self-defense with a possible future career fighting. Along with MMA training she would take wrestling classes at 10th Planet Wrestling.
One day she ran into a man named Frank Gerdeiman who had come by the wrestling school where he had seen Jade training and brought her to Empire Wrestling Federation, which was owned and operated by Jesse Hernandez. Jesse was skeptical about training her at first, but then she impressed him with all she had learned so he took her under his wing. After EWF she went ROH for a little while before going to Shimmer Women Athletes in 2010. She left in January of 2016 where she joined Impact Wrestling for a short time before leaving over creative differences.
Even if she planned on ever trying to make things work with her mother and stepfather, that couldn't happen now as they were dead. The only other family she had that was still alive was her older brother Matt, but Jade hadn't talked to him in years since he left her alone with their parents. Jade made her way through the halls of the performance center which housed the training center not just for NXT but also for the entire WWE. She walked around and started getting pissed off because she couldn't find anyone who worked here.
"HELLO! DOES ANYONE EVEN FUCKING WORK HERE?" she shouted at the top her lungs, it seemed nobody had heard her.
Her attention was caught by the familiar sound of a body hitting a mat so she walked over to a closed door and pulled it open to reveal the training area. She made her way towards the ring and that's when she saw the two men training. The men were Robert or Bobby Roode and Ronald Areneill better known as Tye Dillinger. She walked up until she had reached the ring diagonal from the ring they were using, Jade watched them silently hoping not to attract attention. The sound of someone clearing their throat from behind her caused her to jump a little so she turned to see none other than Paul Levesque better known as Triple H to his fans standing there.
"You must be Jade, I was wondering if you had shown up yet," Paul said as he took a spot next to her. "They're going to put on one hell of match three weeks" the older man said then motioned for Jade to follow him to his office not far from the training area.
She took a seat in a chair that was in front of his desk. "All right, your name is Jade Washington…." he said as he overlooked her paperwork.
He looks over it a bit more then says, "Well everything looks to be in order Miss Washington, you start tonight here on NXT, we hope to get you involved at TakeOver: Toronto. You will have your first match tonight which will be against Jessica McKay better known as Billie Kay." he placed the contract out in front of her. She grabs a pen, writes her name down then drops the pen down onto the desk.

(Ringside)
The song Femme Fatale by CFO$ was playing as Billie Kay with her partner in crime Peyton Royce right behind her walked out. The two women walked down the ramp towards the ring. They were known as the Iconic Duo. Billie and Peyton jumped into the ring and stood in the in the middle of it. Peyton yanked the microphone away from the announcer and handed it to her bestie Billie who accepted it with a smile on her face.
"NXT… As you know, we are the Iconic Duo, and like we said last week, we are going to run this women's division! We started things off by making an example of Liv Morgan, and we will continue tonight with my opponent…. In fact how about my opponent gets her ass out here right now so she can receive her beating early!" Billie yelled.
You Don't Know Me by Elizabeth Gillie started blaring over the speakers and out strutted Jade. She was now wearing a black leather jacket over a black top with a dark green and sliver studded bra underneath. Black trunks with dark green straps that go over her hips, black kneepads and boots. She stared at the two women in the ring as she made her way down the ramp she walked over to the steps on the side of the ring and climbed up into the ring.
"You must the newbie… what are you fifteen?" Billie said snidely.
Jade lets out a scoff then rips the microphone out of Billie's hand and says,
"That's cute, trying to verbally put someone down. What are you doing, trying to hide your own insecurities? That has to be the most pathetic move I have ever seen, but then again I shouldn't expect less from a bitch trying to fill a push up bra so she can feel good about herself."
Billie stared at Jade with her mouth opened wide. Jade reached over and pushed it closed and then said, "You might want to close your mouth sweetheart… or you might swallow some bugs. Unless you're trying to do that?"
Anger flashed in Billie's eyes. She then stomps her foot and tells Peyton to get out of the ring, removes her entrance attire and turned around sending a hard slap to Jade's face.
"My god, the sound of that contact!" Tom Phillips stated awed.
"Wait…. Is the new girl actually smiling?" Graves asked.
Jade was in fact smiling as she turned to face Billie, then before Billie could do anything Jade took her down with a double leg takedown, and began unloading with forearms to the side of Billie's face. Jade quickly gets to her feet and pulls her jacket off, she tosses it over the top rope onto Peyton who yanked it off. Jade turned around in time to duck a clothesline attempt from Billie. She then proceeded to kick Billie repeatedly in the mid-section. Jade grabs Billie's arm then whips her into the ropes, Billie rebounds off, and that's when Jade goes for a drop kick, but Billie holds onto the ropes making Jade hit the mat back first. Billie quickly goes on the offensive as she begins to stomp down on Jade's stomach. Billie reaches down and grabs Jade by the hair pulling her up to her feet, she kicks Jade in the gut then whips her to the corner. Billie runs at Jade who quickly gets her foot up hitting Billie in the face. Jade climbs to the top turnbuckle then leaps off and hits Billie with a Missile Drop Kick taking Billie Kay down.
Jade then goes for the cover.
1…
2…
Billie kicks out and quickly rolls away. Jade gets to her feet and storms over to where Billie was laying on the outside off the apron. Jade reaches over the top rope and grabs Billie by the hair pulling her up to her feet. Billie quickly breaks Jade's hold and slingshots Jade off the top rope. The two members of the Iconic Duo have a small chat when suddenly Jade launches herself between the ropes taking both women down with a Suicide Dive. Jade leaps to her feet, picks Billie up and tosses her back into the ring, but before she herself could enter back into the ring, Peyton attacks her from behind. The ref hadn't seen the attack because he had been checking on Billie. Peyton picks Jade up then tosses her back into the ring then Billie goes for the cover.
1…
2….
Jade kicks out at the last second. Billie gets to her feet and starts yelling at the ref that he is counting too slow, but when she turns around she finds herself on the receiving end of a Discus Clothesline from Jade taking her down. Jade slowly crawls into the cover.
1…
2….
Again Billie gets her shoulder up, both women lay there on the mat, they were both exhausted and trying to catch their breath. They started to get to their feet. Billie was the first of the two to get to her feet. She turns just in time to see Jade on her knees, so Billie runs to the ropes and when she comes back she connects with a knee to Jade's face taking her down. Billie is about to go for a cover when suddenly she hears the crowd cheering so she turns to see Liv Morgan attacking Peyton from behind.
"What the hell are you doing out here!" Billie shouted at Liv who stared up at her with a smile on her face. Jade in the mean time, had gotten to her feet and grabbed Billie from behind, and then connected with a Reverse Neck Breaker which she called Twister Sister, then she went for the cover.
1….
2….
3….
"Here is your winner Jade Wintergreen." Said the ring announcer.
Jade allowed the ref to raise her hand then after a while she yanked her hand away from the ref as he went to check on Bilie. Jade turned her head to the ramp to see Liv making her way up the ramp, she shot the New Jersey native a glare before she climbed out of the ring and started making her way up the ramp. Jade sent one last look back at the ring before entering the back.
Jade entered the back and the first thing she saw was Paul and NXT General Manager William Regal waiting for her. "Was I good enough for you old guys?" she asked crossing her arms to her chest.
Regal gave her an alarmed look while Paul smirked and wagged his finger at her then said,
"I knew there was a reason I liked her…. She's got it, the attitude and the spunk that's been missing from the NXT Women's Division."
Paul turned to her and said, "You did great out there kid…. We have big plans for you keep doing what your doing" he nodded his head then he and Regal walked off leaving her standing there.
She rolled her eyes then walked off towards the locker room. She went straight to where her stuff was located. She quickly gathered her things then walked into the bathroom to change. After taking a shower, she walked out wearing a clean set of clothes. Jade was now wearing a white tank top, grey sweatpants and some worn white sneakers. She tied her hair up into a ponytail as she walked out of the locker room making her way down the hall towards the exit. She was almost to the exit when suddenly someone called out to her so she turned to see Gionna (Liv Morgan) making her way towards her.
"Hey the girls and I were…." She started to say but Jade cut her off.
"Let's make things clear Jersey Shore, I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to weed out the fake wanna be bitches like you who aren't here for the right reasons. I worked my ass off to get here, so do me a favor and stay out of my way." she said bitingly, then without another word walked right out the door.
(!)
Jade entered her apartment and after closing the door she let out a long deep sigh, 'I told her not to get involved in my business and what did she do?' she thought to herself as she tossed her bag onto the ground by the door before entering the kitchen, she walked over to the fridge. She opened the fridge and pulled out a sweet tea then after shutting the fridge she entered the living room taking a seat on the couch. She leaned back on the couch and was about to take a sip of her tea when she felt her phone buzz in her front pocket so she pulled it out to see that someone was calling her.
"What?" she asked irritated.
"Wow, someone is in a mood," replied the person on the other end.
Jade rolled her eyes.
"I'm always in a mood, what do you want Letkeman?" Jade responded.
The woman on the other end laughed, her name is Holly Letkeman better known as Impact Wrestling Knockout Rosemary and member of Decay. Holly had been a friend with Jade since they had met when they had been apart of Shimmer Women Athletes back in 2010. They had a huge rivalry together which only made them friends even more. They had left the company around the same time and signed with Impact Wrestling, but after only a few months with the company Jade left after learning that she would have to change what she stood for and start a lame gimmick with a manager which meant very little wrestling which wasn't fine with the older Washington at all so she asked for her release and it was granted.
"I'm calling cause I wanted to, and to say we need to hang out some time, it's been lonely without seeing my favorite person" Holly said.
"I think I'm going to be sick" Jade said with a roll of her eyes.
Holly laughed.
"But your right, we haven't hung out in a while so how about next Friday?" Jade said finally.
"Sounds good, say I have some great news, they're putting me in a program with Gail Kim and Stephanie (Jade) for the Knockout's Championship" Holly said with a glee in her voice.
"So they finally pulled their heads out of their asses and are giving you what you deserve?" Jade asked.
"That remains to be seen but I'm hoping they follow through and not end this right away" Holly replied.
"Oh yes because they always keep their promises just like they promised me that I wouldn't have to change who I am" Jade replied.
"I know… I was sooo looking forward to having you as a part of Decay" Holly said, Jade smirked as she remembered the thought that they almost teamed up and would have run chaos in Impact Wrestling.
"Sooo…. When are we going to see her again?" Holly asked.
Jade was silent for a few moments then said,
"I don't know yet…. I mean I did talk to them about it and we're probably going to do like they have Devitt doing, only bring her out on special things like the TakeOver or something like that."
Jade and Holly talked some more then after a while she hung up the phone and placed it on the couch next to her. She leaned back and stared up at the ceiling, she closed her eyes and took a long deep breath, she was tired and was about to get up off the couch when her phone buzzed again. Jade picked up her phone and saw the text message that she had just received.
"We need to talk."
Jade narrowed her eyes at the message, anger started to build up, but instead of letting out a scream like she would usually do, she closed her eyes and placed the phone down.
"Why can't you just leave me alone?"
