"Dreams are not random… they have a reason them and are sometimes echoes of a life we do not always remember." Amanda heard, trying to recognise the voice, remember who it belonged to but when she turned, she was surrounded only by the darkened hallway… she couldn't find who was talking to her.
That in and of itself was unnerving, all Amanda wanted was to sleep peacefully after the long day she and the others had… but as of recently, every time she tried to sleep, he started talking… and then just disappeared, leaving her feeling lost, confused… and the worst feeling of all in her opinion... alone.
Amanda didn't like this… but she didn't think much of it when she was awake and distracted.
Night time was a different matter altogether. When she closed her eyes, Amanda had no control over where her dreams took her to...
Another night in the ring, another match won… this one against Eva Marie, as part of Shane and Stephanie's interbrand matches. As great as this idea is and also potentially boosting Raw and Smackdown ratings, I need better opponents.
Personally, I'd rather be in a match against someone who doesn't fake a wardrobe malfunction, knee injury or claim to be stuck in traffic every time even though those were just part of Eva's storyline over the summer… I sometimes feel like she has no respect for the wrestling industry. Then again, I just feel like the days of respect for this industry have passed us by a long time ago… and it's a damn shame, wrestlers who should be cheered for and respected are booed on a nightly basis.
Roman is a damn talented wrestler and used to have fans going crazy for him… then overnight, it was like a switch was flipped. I didn't particularly like what he said on the episode of Smackdown before the 2016 Royal Rumble either but even I think calling him the most despised wrestler since Sgt. Slaughter became an Iraq sympathizing traitor back in the 1990s is going too damn far. Personally, I wish WWE would let the fans express how they feel about Roman instead of going to the extremes they've gone to… I don't see anyone confiscating signs that are negative towards Kevin Owens or piping in cheers but then again, Kevin's been a royal jackass since showing up here.
As my right hand is raised in victory, my theme song is blaring through the arena and Finn pulls me into his arms, spinning us both around before pressing his lips against mine… not even seconds into our kiss is when it happens. The lights cut for a few seconds, that familiar jolt… both of us look up on the titantron through the now dimmed lighting, seeing Bray Wyatt in that damned rocking chair and the fans that just a second ago were cheering have now fallen silent.
"You hold her in your arms, you show her affection and she returns it… but she does not belong to you, Finn." Bray says before looking right at me… even though this is scripted, it's not that unusual to find parts of Raw or Smackdown unsettling at times, especially with the Wyatt family around. "Sister Abigail… I think it's time you remember who you are… and come on home." He says before the lights flicker again and he disappears off the screen, Finn and I looking at each other.
"I say we find Shane and have him explain what this new storyline is about, love." Finn says after we exit the ring and reach the backstage area.
Sister Abigail… since I first heard that name, I had a feeling that this would end in one of two ways... A haunting storyline the fans would remember for decades and tell future fans about or another drop in ratings and WWE losing more fans to Lucha Underground or New Japan Pro Wrestling.
The backstage area is chaotic, even more so than usual… it's even more unnerving because of the main event scheduled for later, Seth Rollins vs AJ Styles… that's gonna be a hell of a match between them.
Right now, I'm just hoping we can find Shane and Daniel… last time a storyline left me with an eerie feeling was back in a time before everything went straight to hell...
