Kelly's theme, Hero by Skillet, played through the arena as Lillian Garcia introduced her. "The following is a Divas match scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Albuquerque, New Mexico, Kelly K!" Kelly ran down the ramp and hopped in the ring. She stood on the top rope pointing to all the fans and waving before hopping down. Then Maryse's music filled the arena, "Her opponent, from Montreal Ontario, Canada, Maryse!" Commentators, Michael Cole, JBL, and Jerry "The King" Lawler, watched as the two divas locked up. "Ladies and gentlemen we are live on tonight's Main Event, former NXT Women's Champion Kelly K vs. Maryse! I'm Michael Cole joined by Jerry Bradshaw and Jerry "The King" Lawler, how are you guys tonight?" King smiled, "Well anytime I get to see two divas as beautiful as Kelly K and Maryse go at in the ring I'm doing great." "It's good to be here!" JBL yelled into the headset. Michael Cole nodded, "Yes King that's right, we have Kelly K, who debut last night on Monday Night Raw coming to the aid her friend AJ Lee after she beat the Divas Champion, Kaitlyn only to be attacked afterwards. Kelly, being close friends with AJ back when they were in NXT together would come out to viciously attack Kaitlyn and tell her they had unfinished business." "Well what I don't get is what Kelly was thinking when she attacked the Divas Champion last night." JBL said in disgust. "Oh, I'll tell you, she was looking for revenge, it strange because back in NXT Kelly, AJ, and Kaitlyn were inseparable until Kelly and Kaitlyn went at each others throats in the middle of match." "I could agree more with you King." Cole said as he looked on, "You know we never did find out what it was that made these divas hate each other so much." "Who cares!" JBL exclaimed.
Kelly just delivered a drop kick from the top rope knocking Maryse down, but she knew that wasn't going to keep her down, so Kelly hit her with a running bulldog causing the crowd to roar with glee. Kelly was on fire, she fed off the crowd's energy and had adrenaline pumping through her veins. Just as she was going for a close line, Maryse kicked her smack in the chest knocking the wind out of her. When Kelly tried getting up Maryse kicked her back down and went for the pin. "1! 2! " The ref counted, but Kelly kicked out. She wasn't going to lose her first match and not like that. Kelly slowly made her way to her feet only to be met with a hard slap from Maryse that set Kelly off. Next thing Maryse knew Kelly was on top of her delivering blow after blow before she pushed her off. Kelly went for close line catching her this time and gave another one before hit her with a spinning heel kick. Maryse was down, but Kelly knew she didn't have the match yet so she climbed to the top rope and went for a moonsault, but Maryse moved out the way and Kelly landed hard on the mat. Maryse went for the cover, Kelly kicked out a 2 1/2. Maryse screamed out in frustration, she went to the opposite side of the ring getting ready for the French Kiss, but just as she was running Kelly grabbed her and ran in the opposite direction pushing her feet off the rope and planting Maryse flat on her face. "1! 2! 3!" The ref called and signaled the bell. " The winner of this match, Kelly K!" Lillian announced. Kelly was pumped, standing on the stop rope she pointed her finger in the air and did so in all four corners of the ring before making her up the ramp slapping fans' hands on the way to the gorilla.
"Wow!" Michael said, "Kelly just planted Maryse with that move." "It was incredible, if anyone had any doubts about whether Kelly was ready or not I think she silenced them all tonight." King said laughing, "Absolutely, Kelly said when she came to the WWE she was coming to be the best, and if continues like she did tonight, then I can say she will be without a doubt in my mind." JBL said in admiration, "Guys just look at this move Kelly used to pick up the victory." Cole said as they looked at the replay, "Amazing, incredible athleticism shown by Kelly tonight."
Kelly walked backstage to be greeted by John, who picked her up and spinned her around in a circle before putting her down, "You were great! I'm so proud of you. A real Cena out there." Kelly laughed, "Glad I got the approval of the champ, that means a lot." She said honestly hugging her big brother back. "Excuse me Kelly if I could just have a minute of your time and talk to you about your win in first match with the WWE." Renee Young asked, "How do you feel right now?" "I feel great! You know Maryse put up a good fight, I just happened to come out on top. I'm here to be the best and you don't accomplish that by losing." Renee smiled, "Well thank you for your time and once again congratulations." With that Renee walked away with the camera crew. "Ok, well I'm gonna go take a shower. April and Phil wanted to leave after my match so I'm gonna get changed so we can go. I'll see you later." She said kissing John on the cheek. "Ok, text me when you get there." John called after her, "You got it dad!"
After Kelly showered she threw on a pair of gray sweats, a black t-shirt, grey jacket, and her black Uggs before packing up her bag and heading to catering to meet Phil and April. She walked into catering seeing Phil talking to Randy and the Shield so she walked over. "Ohh there she is! Ms Future Divas Champion coming this way!" Randy said when he saw Kelly. She laughed, "Hey guys!" Randy opened his arm wide and Kelly gladly went into the hugging one of her brother's best friend. He released her only long enough to throw his arm over her shoulders, which Kelly didn't seem to mind. Joe on the other hand didn't seem to like that very much, but didn't want to cause a scene, so instead he pushed his pride aside and spoke up, "Your match was great Kel, you were on fire out there." "Hell yeah she was, I didn't train her so she could before some boring ass match." Randy said poking her in the side making her giggle. "Thanx, Joe. I didn't think you'd be able to see." She smiled at him. "I'm proud of you Kel-Bel, that was amazing! That move you used to pick up that 1,2,3 was out of this world." Phil said giving her a high-five. "Thanx Phil, glad the "Best in the World" thinks so." "You got all your stuff? April's already on the bus, she's been so excited about you riding with us. I'm guessing I won't get very much sleep with you two on the same bus huh?" he asked smiling. Kelly shook her head, "Probably not, but I'm sure we're just gonna watch movies and junk out with pizza and junk food like a bunch of teenagers." Phil laughed, "I love how a 23 year old and a 24 year old still act like they're 16 when they're together. Am I gonna have to hear about how you think Joe is such a good kisser the whole way there?" Kelly's face became as red a tomato as she hid in Randy's arm before saying, "Phil, I hate you." Joe was smirking over at Kelly and everyone else was looking between the both of them. "Well, I'm gonna head to the bus, is this all your stuff?" Phil asked as he grabbed her bag. "Yeah, thanx. I'll be there in a sec." "K" Kelly walked over to where Joe was standing between Colby and Jon, "Hi" she said looking down. He put his hand under her chin and brought her face up to look at him before he kissed her softly on the lips, but of course as soon as his lips touched hers they got lost in their own world forgetting all those around her. Kelly pulled away and rested her head against his chest ignoring all the superstars starring at her with shock expressions. "So, I'm a good kisser huh?" Joe asked laughing as he rubbed her arms up and down, "On a scale of one to ten I'd give you a nine, unless you're using your tongue then that's a big fat ten." She said boldly. Joe grabbed her, pushing her off his chest to kiss her again this time pushing his tongue past her lips forcing her to lose her breath. He pulled away after a minute and said, "How was that?" "10" Kelly said breathlessly and turning scarlet at the fact that he just did that in front of their co-workers. "I gotta go, I'll text you later." Joe kissed her forehead, "Ok, be safe." Kelly walked away without glancing back, Joe watched her until she disappeared before facing his brothers, who were starring at him with her mouth hanging open. "What?" He asked.
* End of chapter 8! I know the story is moving kind of slow, but I think that by chapter 10 we'll be moving at a faster pace.
