Mercedes couldn't believe what had happened. She was now the future Mrs. Lopez!She was excited about that. She couldn't wait to see what the future had to hold for the two. She had to extremely "Boss" herself up because she could barely concentrate
/on her match. But, she pulled it off. Another Match of the Year candidate between her and Pam. It was the usual. Anytime the two stepped in the ring, you knew magic was coming. Once she got back into Gorilla, she started balling. She hugged Pam,
/Paul, Stephanie, Ashley, Becky, Vince, Leah (Carmella), Nikki, Nattie, Renee, Kevin, AJ, E, Austin, Kofi, Rami, Kevin, and her now fiance, Colby. He always loved to watch Mercedes wrestle because he knew that she would do anything and everything
to
show
that she was better than the likes of him, John Cena, Roman, AJ, Shinsuke, and so many others. And she did just that.
Mercedes watched from catering Colby's match between AJ which was main eventing, and she was happy for them. She couldn't believe some of the stuff that the two did during the match just to try to one up Mercedes vs Pam. Which the two knew that wasn't
/going to happen. Once she saw Colby get the pin, she went back to gorilla to make sure that she was there when he got back. And she was the 1st one that he hugged, and he made sure of that.
Both Colby and AJ said that even though they tried their best, there is no one upping Sasha Banks vs Bayley. It's just not gonna happen, no matter who you were. That night, everyone went out to celebrate an amazing show, and Colby and Mercedes' engagement.
/They couldn't stay out too late, do to the fact that they still had to drive to Philly for RAW the next day.
About 2 months into being engaged, Colby and Mercedes actually started to plan for their wedding. They wanted to get the bridesmaids and groomsmen out of the way first. Mercedes' line up was Pam as the maid of honor, then for bridesmaids, Ashley,
Becky,
Leah, and Lexi (Alexa Bliss). Colby's line up was Brandon (his brother) as his best man, then for the groomsmen as Joe, Jon, Rami, and Claudio. Then the two got the location squared away. The wanted to get married around where Brie and Bryan has got
/married, but Colby and Mercedes weren't getting married until June of 2019. So it was kind of far but not too far. Then they decided that ocean blue, and coral pink for wedding colors. The rest they would figure out later.
About a month later, Mercedes took her mom, Pam, Ashley, Becky, Leah, and Lexi wedding dress shopping for her dress. It took about 4 hours, but Mercedes decided on a strapless, snow white, lace mermaid gown with a flower crown w/a lace veil attached
/to
it for the wedding. She was excited to take that off the bucket list.
The next day, the same group of girls then had to go bridesmaid dress shopping for coral pink dresses for them. They all decided on a strapless, fit and flare, that ended right before the ankles, with a lace skirt dress. Well, Mercedes was glad that
/probably
the hardest part was finally over...
