A.N: Please don't kill me for not updating, i had exams! Anyways, i'm finally done with this chapter, its full of surprises (: One of my favorite, i think. Enjoyed writing it too, just not the continuous insomnia i have at the moment.

By the way, who else hates this AJ/Cena crap? I thought it was Orton going into Cena's room... LOL. Makes no sense to me, i guess. #BringBackAJ/Punk


Commentary

Cole: And we're back here on Raw, for a Diva's contendership match, A.J Lee versus the current Diva's Champion Natalya. If A.J wins she gets her title shot. If not, well we try a Diva's Battle Royal.

Booker: I don't think they be needin' any Battle Royal, A.J could win this thing!

Cole: Yes, the WWE Universe is firmly behind her corner, it's as if a win for her is guaranteed!"

End of Commentary

Meanwhile the said Diva was in the ring, nodding along to whatever pointers the Chicago native was giving for her match. The Diva's Champion would be hard to defeat no doubt, but CM Punk was positive she could do it.

"Go kick some ass for me," he muttered under his breath, pulling the petite Diva in a brief hug and then getting out of the ring and to the commentary table as usual.

"Punk! Here again?" Cole exclaimed, grasping the tattooed Superstar's hand for a friendly handshake.

The Straight Edge Superstar rolled his eyes at his friend. "Of course I'm here, this where the pipebombs are! Plus A.J tends to get a little aggressive in the ring, trust me I would know."

Both men seated laughed and Booker reached over to shake Punk's hand as well. "Good to have ya back, kiddo. I actually missed your sarcasm!"

Doesn't everyone?" he boasted playfully, shaking his hand also and taking his usual seat in the middle.

"So Punk, what's the deal with you and A.J?" Cole asked nonchalantly and Punk groaned internally. Why couldn't everyone give it a rest?

"I don't know what you're talking about," he replied breezily.

Booker decided to press the matter further. "Well you have been spending more time with her man. And New Nexus is done, yet you're still out here."

"Well you see when two people are friends they tend to support each other," the Chicago native replied sarcastically, earning an eye roll from both men.

As soon as the bell rang, the two Divas went into a lock of power contest, with Natalya gaining the upper hand.

"And that's Natalya taking control of this matchup," Cole commented coolly, ignoring the accusing stare from the Superstar next to him.

Punk thought otherwise. "It's only because Natalya's much stronger than her!" he said in defense.

In the ring, A.J was on the receiving end of a powerslam from the blonde Diva.

"Nice powerslam there by Natalya. The girl radiates pure power," said Booker in awe.

Natalya attempted a pinfall, only for A.J to kick out at 1. She decided to work further on weakening the Diva.

"And there's A.J, holding strong against the Diva's Champion. Resilient, isn't she Punk?" Cole directed his question towards the deep in thought wrestler.

"Of course she is. Future of the Divas Division you're looking at right now," Punk said with pride, confident about the firecracker.

"And there's Natalya going for a roundhouse kick!" Booker interjected.

Both men turned their attention to the ring, but all they saw was A.J performing a well placed kick at the Divas Champion's foot, thus sending her reeling in pain.

"Here's where you see A.J's technical skills, she's just amazing in the ring." Cole praised.

"Well I'm the one who taught her the moves," The Straight Edge Superstar muttered under his breath.

"Hurricanrana! A.J just hit the hurricanrana!" Booker exclaimed excitedly. Indeed she had, as Natalya was now on the ground. She tried a pinfall, but the blonde powerhouse kicked out at 2.

"And now I believe A.J has gained control of this matchup," Cole remarked, keeping his eyes glued to the action in the ring.

As Natalya was attempting to get to her feet, A.J let her have a dropkick, sending her into the mat once again.

Even Punk seemed impressed by the new development in her in ring moves. "Nice dropkick there by AJ."

"So Punk, you got any idea who your opponent for tonight could be?" Booker inquired.

The tattooed wrestler needed a minute to think about this. "I don't know Booker, it could be anyone so I need to try my best out there to become the number one contender. I have waited far too long to let this opportunity go. What I need to do is prove to John Cena and every single one of those Superstars backstage that I'm by far better than they think I am."

You could tell that his words had a strong shock to the WWE Universe, and his friends at commentary. This guy really was something.

Booker finally found something to end the silence. "And there's A.J trying to plant Natalya…. Only to have it reversed! Looks like she's going for a backbreaker!"

Everyone's undivided attention was to the ring where the two Divas were. Natalya had A.J up, almost as if mocking the Diva. Her arrogance cost her tremendously. In the flash of a second, A.J fully locked in the Octopus Hold. Natalya was in the middle of the ring.

"The Octopus Hold out of nowhere! Will the Divas Champion tap?" Cole wondered.

"She better unless she likes her entire body hurting…" Punk muttered, that started when he noticed both men staring at him in bewilderment. "What? It was a past experience..." he exclaimed defensively.

The pair didn't look too convinced, but nonetheless continued looking on to the match.

A.J kept the hold locked in position. "Tap out!" she cried. The Divas Champion was fading, much like Kaitlyn did last week on SmackDown. The petite Diva knew this woman was more resilient than her former friend though.

After a few unbearable moments though, the Divas Champion was forced to tap to the petite Diva.

The crowd exploded with cheers. Punk and Cole high fived each other in triumph. Booker T was yelled, "Now can you dig that, sucka?!"

"And the winner of this match via submission…. A.J!"

She was standing tall in the middle of the ring, hand held up in victory by the referee while the other was wrapped around her stomach. The smile never leaving her face.

That was until she was attacked from behind by the Divas Champion herself. It was so sudden that the pint-sized Diva tumbled out of the ring. Punk's head shot up in concern, quickly abandoning the announce table support the spitfire.

Natalya now had a mic, and spoke rather arrogantly while glaring daggers at the writhing form of AJ Lee and CM Punk, who was trying to help her."A.J Lee, you are not Championship material! You're not even fit to be a Diva, let alone in my ring. Little girl, at Money in the Bank I will give you a worse beating than what you just got. And your boyfriend won't be here for you, 'cause I'll get CM Punk banned from ringside!"

"What?! What the hell is wrong with you?!" Punk was now full on shouting in disbelief at the smirking Champion who was now backing out of the ring.

When she was out of sight, he turned his attention to the assaulted Diva at his side. He helped her up, wrapping an arm around her waist as she leaned on him for support. The duo slowly made their way backstage, with the crowd still buzzing with hatred towards the Divas Champion.

Commentary

Booker: Well a message was well sent to A.J by the Divas Champion.

Cole: Yes, she sure has proven to be a tough one for little A.J to knock off.

Booker: I'll tell you man, Natalya may be something to worry about, but A.J could be our new Divas Champion in 2 weeks' time

Cole: I think A.J definitely has what it takes to be a Champion.

Booker: Of course she does! She has great in ring ability.

Cole: But do you remember what CM Punk said earlier right here on commentary?

Booker: How could I forget? That boy has a bright future ahead in the WWE.

Cole: I wouldn't doubt that for a second. Well now we go on commercial break, but up next is Dolph Ziggler versus Cody Rhodes.

End of Commentary


"A.J, for the last time, I don't want you out there!"

The pair was having the same argument again. AJ was being stubborn, wanting to go out to ringside to show support. Punk of course, would have none of that. There was no way he'd let that happen.

"But you were there for my match, it's only fair!" she protested, crossing her arms.

He groaned, shaking his head. "A.J do you think I want another Cena incident happening?! He would've attacked you if Teddy didn't come out there to stop him!"

"But he isn't here tonight," the stubborn Diva pointed out.

"So what? He's not the only guy who's comfortable with hurting women. What if my mystery opponent is Kane? He'll have no problem whatsoever to chokeslam you through the matt!" The tattooed wrestler was frustrated with her insistence already.

He continued on his rant, "Do you have any idea how guilty I feel whenever I think of him hurting you? It would be myfault, no one else's!"

It was only when he heard a small whimper he realized the pint-sized woman was about to spill the brewing waterworks.

"I'm sorry… I didn't mean it to come out that harsh…" The former Messiah of Straight Edge stumbled on his words, not at all used to this.

"Just…come here A.J…." he held his arms open and the Diva fell into them, gripping at his T-shirt. "I only do this because I care." Punk whispered into her ear, still holding the petite woman.

He let go of her, walking to unlock the door. "My match is next, so don't come down here okay? Stay with Kofi for the while or something." Not even waiting for her answer, the future contender walked out, making his way to the curtain for his theme to start.

'This Fire Burns' started, signaling him to storm out of the curtains.

"Approaching the ring from Chicago, Illinois… CM Punk!"

As usual he got mixed reactions from the crowd as he quickly got into the ring. Immediately, another upbeat theme started. One that made Punk very upset upon hearing.

Let's light it up!

The fans roared at the sight of her despite Punk's livid mood. Had he not told her to go find Kofi?! AJ made her way inside the ring by not her carefree skipping, but walking straightforward. This was very unusual.

"AJ, I thought I told you to stay backstage!" He began berating her as soon as she was face to face with him.

The petite Diva just shook her head, taking a step closer. "What? AJ?" he sighed, shrugging his shoulders in disbelief.

What she did next, the WWE Universe did not at all expect.

A.J jumped into his arms, kissing him on the mouth. The Second City Savior froze for a second, caught off guard, but complied with kissing her back as the initial shock wore off. He boosted her upwards with one hand and wrapped the other around her waist, giving the WWE Universe a good show. Her arms were wrapped around his neck, and she pulled him in even more closer, deepening their kiss.

Finally, after what felt like hours they broke apart, A.J sliding off of him and running backstage before he could get a word out. Punk was stunned; she kissed him.

Commentary

Cole: See? I was right!

Booker: Still ain't right Cole… Did you not see the look on his face? Poor boy's smitten, but he was hella shocked when she kissed him.

Cole: Okay maybe… oh well would you listen to that! The crowd is chanting 'Punk and AJ!'

Booker: That was one hell of a kiss though. Our poll is useless now.

Cole: True, but let's focus more on this: Who is Punk's mystery opponent?

End of Commentary

I'M Aweeesomee! I came to play!

The crowds booed loudly as the self-proclaimed 'Awesome One' did his signature pose while coming out. Punk couldn't help but let out a strangled chuckle. He didn't expect it to be this man at all.

"Approaching the ring from Cleveland, Ohio…. The Miz!"

Mike swaggered his way towards the ring, soaking in the jeers from the crowd with immense satisfaction.

The bell rung, signifying the start of the matchup.

The Superstars shook hands and then engaged in a display of connecting arms to wear each other down.

Commentary

Cole: A great show of sportsmanship by shaking hands right there.

Booker: I may not like the Miz, but I got to hand it to him: he respects those he calls his equals.

Cole: Well, he is awesome.

Booker: Not looking so awesome on the receiving end of CM Punk's elbow!

End of Commentary

The Straight Edge Superstar was indeed in control of the Miz, landing a low dropkick effectively to the knees. He applied the arm lock to wear the Awesome One down, succeeding but Miz powered out after a while.

Commentary

Cole: There's the Miz taking control of this match.

Booker: Those kicks must hurt.

Cole: The Miz is a very talented Superstar. Former WWE Champion.

Booker: He's going for a corner clothesline…no he took too long, Punk dodges.

Cole: Another turning point in the matchup, Punk buys some time to recuperate.

End of Commentary

Punk was getting to his feet while the Miz was still recovering in the corner. The Second Cit Savior took a chance and went for a high knee, landing it on Miz's jaw. He dragged him to the other corner, perfectly landing another well executed high knee. He did this a couple more times on the different corners.

Commentary

Cole: Now Punk is in control of this matchup, wearing the former WWE Champion down.

Booker: And this is where that boy's dangerous…..see a suplex from the top rope right there!

Cole: Punk's a pretty decorated Superstar himself. 3 time World Champion. Defeated William Regal for the Intercontential Championship.

Booker: He's definitely showin' he's Championship material right now.

Cole: He's going for the Go to Sleep… and Miz counters.

End of Commentary

Now the Miz was in control, trying to weaken the Straight Edge Superstar. He was measuring his opponent, getting ready for his finisher. The Awesome One took a moment to shout at the crowd and then went for the Skull Crushing Finale.

His shenanigans with the crowd cost him.

Punk countered with a slam. It was there he finally began to build momentum. As usual, he teased the 'Go to Sleep', and when the Miz staggered to his feet he lifted him up on his shoulders, dropping him for a knee to the face, connecting with the GTS.

The ref did the three count. "1…2…3!" The bell rung; Punk had won and is the new number one contender for the WWE Championship.

"And the winner of his match by pinfall: CM Punk!" Justin announced.

Not even staying to celebrate, Punk hurried out of the ring and and ran backstage in search of A.J.

Commentary

Cole: I wonder why he left in such a hurry.

Booker: -hits Cole on the head- Obviously to find A.J!

Cole: Oh! Right. I almost forgot that in the midst of this incredible matchup.

Booker: Almost? You did. I feel for that guy, A.J really confused him there. First she kisses him, then runs out cryin'.

Cole: Well we'll find out either Friday night on SmackDown or next week's RAW about them.

Booker: And John Cena's reaction to his new opponent. The contender to his WWE Championship is the man he hates, wonder how that will work out.

Cole: Also remember that Cena attacked CM Punk after a matchup and then proceeded to assault the rest of Nexus. This made an impact to the WWE Universe, and not for the best. Almost hitting A.J too.

Booker: I have no idea what's going through that boy's head, and I don't like it. Whatever the circumstances, never even try to lay a hand on a woman.

Cole: This rivalry has become even more personal than ever. Punk was furious earlier, and John is reluctant to see him as a threat to his Championship.

Booker: He'll regret that. Punk is nothing but a threat.

Cole: Well this is where we go off air; Hope you enjoyed tonight's RAW and make sure to tune in to SmackDown on Friday!

RAW Goes off Air
