Monday came around and Ashley had been gone for only two days but for Chris it felt like forever. Raw began that night with a picture of Ashley holding her women's championship flanked by her sons. Underneath the picture, it was written. 'Remembering Ashley (Austin) Jericho. April 20th 1986 to May 31st 21012.

The whole Raw locker room stood on the top of the ramp. In the front stood Chris and Steve, Chris clutched Austin's hand as Steve held Noah's. On either side of the boys were their uncles Glen Jacobs and Brian Kendrick. Vince stood in front of the group his head hung down. Finally he raised his head and everyone could see that he was barely holding it together, as was most of the locker room. "Ashley Austin Jericho passed away Saturday night from Ovarian Cancer. She fought long and hard but finally succumbed to it. I've known Ashley personally since she was just a child. She had love for wrestling since she saw her first match. She loved the fans the most though. I ask everyone to stand now for the ringing of the bell 10 times and a short video." Vince said softly.

The video started with Ashley celebrating in the ring with Steve after he had won the Intercontinental Championship. Pink's song Who Knew played in the background. It slowly shifted to her first match against Mickie James, then to where Brian Kendrick asked her to marry him. It shifted again to her and Chris Jericho suddenly showing up taunting Brian in Ashley's only heel run. Then it turned to Ashley and Chris introducing Austin Jericho to the WWE fans. It changed to Ashley and Chris celebrating his WWE Championship. There were plenty of videos of Ashley and Chris kissing during the three-minute video. It changed to Ashley introducing Noah to the WWE fans and then finally to her last match that had ended in tears.
The screen went blank for a moment until Glen Jacob appeared. His eyes were rimmed in red from the tears he had shed. He bit his lip for a moment then began slowly. "Ashley, she was one of my best friends even though there was a huge age difference in between us and our characters were always feuding. Ashley had this huge heart and she would never give up anyone. She was the backbone of everyone when they needed her, and now I am not sure what I am going to do." He glanced up and sighed. "Here's to you Ash."

The screen went black once again and Chris Jericho's music hit the arena. The crowd cheered him and his two boys on. Chris wore an AJ armband and the boys both wore Ashley's t-shirts. He sighed and cracked his neck as the boys went and sat with JR and The king. Brian's music hit the arena and Chris sighed. He hadn't wanted to fight tonight. His heart wasn't in it because it was the first match in five years Ashley wasn't cheering him on.

The match flew by and Chris won. At the end, Chris and Brian hugged closely and Chris blew a kiss towards the sky. Chris walked over to the edge of the ring and brought the boys into it along with a mic. It was a long moment before Chris spoke. "My wife was my soul mate. She made me smile day in and day out. She couldn't help but be a smart ass, that was who she was. She was never the girly type of woman she would rather be dirty then anything else. Thus is the reason she loved wrestling so much. It was so anti-girly. She talked more and more about how she missed wrestling in her last days. She missed wrestling so much on her last day she wrote the fans a goodbye." He said. Chris sighed as Austin handed him the letter. Chris began to read.

To the WWE fans,

I must be gone if someone is reading this, but believe me I am still there with you all. Each of you cheered me during my career and motivated me to keep going and even after I left there was so much support from you all and that makes me proud to be a member of the WWE. WWE has been my family as has been the fans. I thank you for your love and support. Please continue to support them epically if my sons grow up to become wrestlers. Thank you for all your love and support.

Ashley Austin Jericho.

Chris nodded slowly and went to hand the mic off to a stagehand but Austin grabbed it. "My mommy was the best mommy ever!" He cried and kissed his hand and blew a kiss towards the sky causing everyone's heart to break.

Austin handed the mic to Noah. "Mommy's an angel now, she's wrestling other angel's kicking their butt and taking there names! Miss you mommy." Noah said. Chris was amazed that the children were being so clam. He hugged the boys closely as the screen showed Steve.

"I am not going to lie. I never wanted to be on this show. I wanted to morn in my own way but I realized that's not what Ashley would've. She was the one who made me open up a lot. Not many people know this but Ashley wasn't my blood I had adopted her when she was five years old. She was a sullen child I mean after seeing your parents die you would be too. So in order for her to get over it I learned I had to open up to her first. I loved that girl and she was my daughter, my best friend, and most of all she was a great person. I will miss you baby girl." Steve said and then walked off the screen.

Next came Mickie James, Ashley's on again off again worst enemy. Mickie sighed heavily and looked down. "I remember the last match Ashley and I had. Right before we had gone out we both agreed it felt so final. I could've sworn to god she would recover 100 percent and come back bigger and stronger. I was wrong in one wait but I know in her own way she was bigger and stronger then I could ever be. She faced down death and didn't win but held her own. I love you Ashy!"

Brian Kendrick wiped his tears away and sighed. "Ashley Austin and I were engaged so very long ago. She was this bright star in my world even after we broke up. She knew me inside and out and even introduced me to her cousin who became my wife. I owe my family to Ashley and I will never forget her. Thank you Ashley for being the strong one. We love you and you're truly irreplaceable."

Next up was Jeff Hardy he held back his tears well but you could see they were ready to spill over. "Ashley, Ashley, Ashley." He said softly. "I met her in 1998 when I first started wrestling when I was 21 and she was only twelve years old. I thought I was so cool being so young and wrestling well she put me in my place. She told me that not everyone could cut it in the business and that I was talented but not that damn talented. I loved her she was a great friend and I will always miss her."


Chris was leaving the arena that night alone because Misha had taken the boys to the hotel room earlier in the night. He was almost to his car when a young boy and a man jogged up to him. "Mr. Jericho, we were afraid you had left already." The man said.

"Hey guys." Chris said.

"We are really sorry about Ashley. She was my wife's favorite." The man said looking down.

"Thanks." Chris said.

"I am Mark and this is my son Cody. My wife died of breast cancer last month." He said.

Chris nodded. "I am sorry to hear that." Chris said. "It must've been hard."

"I knew it was coming but Cody's only six and it was really hard on him. That's why I am here Mr. Jericho. You are grieving and it's hard to think about the effect it has on the boys." Mark said softly.

"Oh?" Chris asked.

"Yeah. I know you live in Victoria Texas so this doctor that Cody went to is not to far from there." Mark said and handed him a card. Chris smiled shocked at the fact that this man had sought him out just to help his sons out.

"Thanks a lot. It means a lot that you would wait for me like that. I really hadn't thought about getting help for the boys." Chris said.
