Authors Note- I am so sorry this chapter took WAY longer then expected. Been going through some personal things that took me away for a while, been sick on and off with colds, and I have been busy with my books with working on them. Also I start school soon and have a full time job and oh my gosh why can't I just be rich already ( Face palms ).
BUT! Sooooo much has happened on the WWE side right? Seth is a heel again and I'm loving it, I really can't to put Ellie back in NXT for a bit and to meet Rhea, Shayna, and Toni, and so much freaking more. Then WE GOT CM PUNK BACK! Well not back yet but on FOX Backstage, can you just picture the two of them on there talking? God, Pharya might kill him or they might start fighting, it wouldn't be Phil and Pharya if they didn't. I REALLY can't wait to get there to write him into things. Just picture them in the ring together, him coming back to help her, or just beat her up, LOL. Either way, I love it. Like, do you guys knows how excited I am to get there? Pretty dang excited because I have a million more things to do with her but it all works out for the greater good.
Ugh! Book 2 can not get here quicker, I'm trying to get it out guys, and I'm gonna. Just bare with me! I already have the book covers for them ready, that's how prepped I am.
You all should know I would never leave you guys and I'm coming back. I do thank you guys for the support, you don't know how much it means to me to read all of your reviews, and I read every single one. Besides my love for it, you guys make me want to write every single time and I get so pumped writing SES that it's truly my heart. I always tell people it was truly meant for me to come back to this story, lol. I don't know where I would be without it. It pulls me out from my bad times, I can just watch wrestling, picture Ellie in there and begin to write while I watch and it brings me so much joy. I love writing Ellie/Pharya...the chick is my spirit woman, anybody else? LMAO.
Anyway, I think you waited long enough and I can talk later...onto the last PPV!
Straight Edge Sister
Book One
Roadblock PPV 2016, backstage 'On screen'
"Can you believe he really tried to give me a scarf?" Chris questions.
The crowd cheers as the camera shows him in the back halls.
Dressed in ring gear, he wore one of his own scarfs and his list was tucked away on his side.
"I mean does Kevin seriously think a scarf is going to change any of this crap?" Chris asks;looking ahead. "It's ridiculous. Nobody tells me to shut up. After everything I have done for that, ungrateful, bowling ball, stupid idiot, and this is how he does me-well us." His brows squint. "You and me. You know I meant us right?" Chris looks down.
Panning the camera down, it showed Ellie on the floor doing push ups. This makes the Pittsburgh arena go in a uproar of cheers.
Ellie hops up with the last push up and sighs. "Yes." She rests her hand on her hip with a nod. "I know you meant us."
For her ring gear; she wore one of her black merchandise shirts with 'Ellie Era' written in bold-white and pretty font, a date under it read '10-25-15', on the back of her shirt was her logo of the skull with roses and Triple H symbol joined. The shirt was made into a deep v, fitted crop, to show only some of her stomach, as the shirt had some slits on the side. She wore a pair of jean shorts with a thick belt, fishnet stockings, black knee pads and black and white long chucks.
Like normal, she had on her leather-black finger-less gloves, and her half heart choker that hung on her neck. All her hair was parted in the center; out in wand curls.
"Good." Chris nods. "Had to make sure we were on the same page here." Ellie smirks with a sigh. Her eyes travel behind him and her smirk dropped. "What? What's wrong?" Chris turns around to see Charlotte and jumps a little at the sight of her. "Jeez."
The crowd laughs as they went in a loud mixed reaction over her.
Charlotte sent him a quick glare but she smiles. "Chris. How are you, prepping for your match with Seth?"
"Yup." Chris grins. "Just putting stuff together with the old Ellster here." Ellie frowns. He goes to put his arm around her. "See, we are-"
"Don't." Ellie stern voice stops everything.
Chris takes his arm back making the crowd laugh at him.
Charlotte nods her head. "Uh-huh. Well if you don't mind, I actually want to talk to her."
"I mind," Ellie nods. "I mind so much. I do not want to talk to you. Wouldn't talk to you if I even had to do sign language, swear to god."
Charlotte sighs with a glare as the crowd laugh at Ellie.
Charlotte eyes go into slits. "Can you be serious for one second of your life?"
"That depends. Can you go to hell?" Ellie brow quirks, Charlotte gives her a look and the champs shrugs. "Come on, you walked into that."
"Childish." Charlotte rolls her eyes.
"Just-like-you." Ellie says. Charlotte snaps her head to her, making Ellie grin. "What?"
Chris looks between them and puts his hands up in defense. "Listen I don't mind giving you two a minute. It's no problem, catch you later Ells-" Ellie glares. "Elle B, I was going to say Elle B."
"Uh-huh." Ellie nods. Chris excuses himself, Ellie slowly turns her head back to Charlotte. "What the heck do you want? I don't remember asking to be annoyed."
"Is it true?" Charlotte questions. Ellie blinks, stretching her eyes, and leans her head forward. Charlotte motions a hand for her to talk and Ellie copies her motion making her annoyed. "Well?"
"What? Well what?" Ellie asks. "I don't know what the heck you're talking about. Is what true?"
"Well, according to the rumors. You aren't defending that championship at the Royal Rumble but you are at Fastlane." Charlotte says. "That true?"
Ellie blinks. "And if it is?"
Charlotte points at the belt with a smile. "You do know that you're supposed to defend that championship at every PPV?"
Ellie copies her smile. "And you do know...that you're supposed to mind my business?" Charlotte glares and Ellie smile drops. "I defend my title at more PPV's then Brock Lesnar when he's champion. So do not get in my face about that. Also, it is my year as champion and for that Stephanie allowed me to do this. Which means, I make the decisions blondie, and what I said is what I said. I will be defending it at Fastlane and not the Royal Rumble."
"Providing you win tonight." Charlotte points out
Ellie scoffs at the thought. "Charlotte, other than being the bane of my existence. What else do you possibly want from me? What?"
"Well I was thinking..."
"I know that hurt." Ellie says making the crowd laugh hard. Charlotte took a deep breath and her eyes opened to glare at her. "What do you want woman? I am on a schedule right now."
"What I want, is for you to jump off a cliff and end your career." Charlotte says with a slight laugh.
Ellie fake laughs with her. "You honestly got a second before I just punch you in the throat." Her laugh ceased as her lips thinned in a frown.
"Well, I felt as though it would be only right if I was the person you faced at Fastlane for that title." Charlotte says. Ellie brows raise confused. "Lets be honest, there is nobody else around here. So wouldn't it make sense to face the person you stol-won, the person you won it from. Think of it as maybe history repeating itself and you win or maybe karma finally coming back to you..."
Ellie looks at her crazy until she slowly breaks into a smile. "Wait, wait, wait, wait." Charlotte brow raised. "Wait, wait...wait. Am I being pranked?"
"I'm being serious." Charlotte sternly says.
"So was I." Ellie laughs. "Charlotte I am not facing you. I beat you to get it, tapped you out to keep it, beat you again, and then I brutalized you at Hell in a Cell. I really just don't understand you and Sasha. No matter how many times, I beat you up, drag you down, stomp and punch you in the face, you both come back. What am I drug to you two? Get counseling or something! You two are like leaches."
"The point is Brooks, your not going to have anybody to face because nobody is really on my level." Charlotte smirks.
Ellie frowns. "What level is that? Training mode?" Charlotte glares.
"I am the one who's got your number and you know it." Charlotte points at her. "There isn't anyone back here who even draws that much attention in a ring with you. Except Sasha, so pick your poison."
"Don't tell me what to pick. And first off, Sasha isn't going to be able to walk let alone put her name in any hat for a title shot. When this is over she is done and gets no more chances, ZERO, not available, I will no longer speak my third language, can not pass go, the number you have dialed is not in service."
"I-I, I get it." Charlotte tells her. "I get it."
Ellie shrugs. "Just making it clear. Also, didn't I tell your butt that you don't get anymore title shots from me either?"
"Actually," Charlotte grins making Ellie uneasy. "If I remember correctly in that contract we signed, it said something different. Unlike Sasha you didn't make that rule for me when it came to as long as your holding that belt." Ellie brow raised confused. "It says that I couldn't face you for that title anymore this year, but Fastlane is an entire different year Ellie. Fastlane is in the year of 2017 not 2016." The champ looked off and mentally cursed herself in her head. "These were your words by the way."
"I know my words, thank you." Ellie rolls her eyes.
"Why aren't you putting your title on the line at the Royal Rumble? If you don't mind me asking." Charlotte questions crossing her arms over her chest.
"I do mind. I'll tell you though because I want to." Ellie points. "I have other things to do that require my attention. The Royal Rumble is here but I still don't see what I wanted and I have a problem with that because I thought I made that perfectly clear when I did what I did. People are testing my good patience and when I don't get what I'm promised it is a serious problem. So I need to fix a couple of things. And unlike you I have bigger priorities then just a title. I am trying to do something that makes sure we make headlines and not just the story on the next page or last. I was never meant to come second or last, it's one of the reasons me and my mother still got a lot of tension. I should have been born first" Charlotte brows quirk. "Also, why fight there when I can pick two people to fight there and the winner faces me at Fastlane. Win-win for everybody." Ellie grins.
Charlotte gives her a look. "Really?"
"Mhm." Ellie hums, she gives a sigh and look off. "You know what Charlotte, as much as I hate you. I will admit that I do respect you and I agree that you should be considered for this."
Charlotte brow raised. "What's the catch?"
"No catch." Ellie smiles. "None at all. I pretty much beat everyone and once I break Sasha's leg we aren't going to be seeing to much of her. So I don't have anyone left around here that is on my level. With that being said, you and the second person I pick will go one on one at the Rumble. The winner gets me."
"Oh joy." Charlotte rolls her eyes. "Wait a second, who is the second person? Oh let me guess, your best friend to help you when you need it, Nia Jax? You know the one who you use when you can't handle it on your own."
"Actually no, and I have always been an army of one and you all found that out around Survivor Series." Ellie reminds her. "I don't need help to take out trash, just need to make sure it's picked up when I'm done with it." Charlotte dropped her arms to glare at her. Ellie sighs and shakes her head. "Joking, joking, well not really. Okay, okay, relax your purple panties. Never knew you were into lace, I will say that." Charlotte eyes widened as she held her backside and looks behind her at her butt. Ellie smirks in amusement. "Nia isn't going to be your opponent at the Rumble, but when I find out who, I will let you know bumpkin."
Charlotte eyes went into slits. "What are you up to? Better yet, why should I believe you are going to pick a fair opponent?"
"You shouldn't, because I am full of a lot of surprises. Still you're either going to take the shot or not Charlotte, either way I breathe so it is really your gain or loss." Ellie shrugs. "I'm up to nothing but I do agree that the person I should face at Fastlane should mean something and you presented a good case. Now, if that is all you need, I have better things to do and standing here and looking at you isn't one." The crowd laughed. "So, do we have a deal?"
Charlotte looks down at Ellie's hand and went to do it but Ellie took her hand back to fix her hair.
The crowd 'Ooh's' as Charlotte nods her head slowly.
"I don't shake hands." Ellie tells her. "I'm only giving you this shot because Ellie Quinn is on vacation and I can't go mess with Becky and I can't bring Becky over here. So you, Bayley, and Sasha are all I have. Something I wouldn't wish on my worse enemy. But, since Sasha is going on the inured list, that leaves me with you blondie because Bayley doesn't entertain me."
Charlotte flips her hair with a smirk. "Well Brooks, we have a deal. Good luck tonight but I guess even if you loose tonight against Sasha, I can still go after her. So it looks like a win-win for me and either a loose-win for you." She gets in her face smiling as Ellie glares at her. "You just think you have it all together but in reality you don't and I see that now." Ellie eyes flicker off for a brief moment in thought before she looks back to Charlotte. "Your scared because slowly you're starting to see, maybe, just maybe, there is somebody back here that is going to outsmart you one day and do exactly what you did to me to you. I pray for that day, because I promise you, either I'm going to take that belt from you or somebody else is. Either way Brooks, your karma is coming one day and I will be there to see it or deliver it."
"Maybe." Ellie soon smirks. "Still, I never been scared of what happens in the future. I just keep on wrestling and make no apologies for anything I ever had to do. See there is something that separates the two of us. Unlike you, I didn't do bad things for my own gain. Everything I have ever done is to teach somebody a lesson because they started with me first. Your karma Charlotte, it came from thinking you were untouchable and that you could just get in my face and push me around. The thing you didn't know is that for a fun fact, I like to push back and when I do, I hit you were it hurts. Just think about it, it still hurts that on Febuary 21st of 2016 I beat you without even breaking a real sweat and I know that stings. While you were on that high mountain just enjoying being a bitch, as soon as you turned around, I kicked you right off. I showed you what a champion truly is and I did it for three hundred and one days straight." Charlotte smirk dropped. "There is two things certain in my life Charlotte, death, and I beat your ass every chance I get. So you can step foot back into my lions den if you want to, just know I am not liable for how you come back out of it." The crowd 'Oh's' and Charlotte eyes widened. "Now if you will excuse me, I need to beat up and old boyfriend and put a Boss out of a job. So in the words of your father sweetheart, Woo!" Charlotte jumps.
Ellie walks off, throwing her head back in laughter.
Charlotte glares watching her leave.

Later 'In the ring'
The camera pans around the ring before up at the stage.
'Kick Ass' by Egypt Central hit to a huge reaction from Philly as they all got up.
"It's about time we get to see her!" Corey beams. "Yes! The Ellie Era is upon us gentlemen."
"Calm down, Corey." Byron tells him with a chuckle.
Ellie walks out with her Cerebral Queen leather jacket and title around her waist.
"Sporting the jacket given to her by her mentor at Hell in a Cell." Cole mentions. "Ellie looks ready for a fight. We saw her earlier on the Pre-Show with some very threatening words to Bayley about Sasha tonight and about Bayley herself."
"No, you heard her tell Bayley to basically shut her mouth or Sasha won't be the only one getting beat up tonight. That is what she said." Corey rephrases."Those were her words."
"That is not what she said." Byron says back.
"Yes it is!" Corey argues. "It was in so many words."
Ellie looks around at the crowd; a small smirk tugged at her lips at the lively crowd of Philly.
"The champ is smiling as she is on round one of her double duty tonight." Cole said. "Lets not forget that Ellie is still going to be in an Iron Man match against Sasha Banks later on tonight and how she is going to do this is beyond me guys. I mean I know Ellie has pulled off the impossible but this is a stretch for even her to do. Anything can happen in this match with Rollins that could impact that very match."
Ellie nods her head to her own music, she laughs at some of the guys in the crowd rocking out to it.
"That woman is glowing on another level." Corey complements.
Byron shakes his head. "You just love Ellie, Corey."
"That is very true, I will not deny it." Corey says. "Who wouldn't?! We're supposed to hate her, but how can you? Seriously?"
Listen, Cole, I am one to agree but I don't ever want to bet against that woman." Byron gives his take. "We all know Ellie is one of the baddest, talented, toughest, and probably the most dangerous woman in that ring when it comes to wrestling. She is just obsessed with being the best and making this choice is really going to help or hurt her."
"I have never bet against her and I'm not going to start now." Corey said. "Ellie is like all the things you said Byron but you forgot more, she is a fighter, a strategist. Ellie doesn't dive head in without an end game. I do think this being a tag match will help her and Chris more so then Rollins. If there is anybody we should be worried about it's Seth! You are about to be in the ring with the woman who hates you and a Chris who wants to hurt you. I personally don't see how Rollins is going to win. We're just talking about Ellie but she has a partner and Rollins doesn't. How do you watch your back with Chris and Ellie?"
"I don't think you can." Cole said.
"Not the best two to be in there with." Byron shakes his head.
Ellie's music died down, she looks back over her shoulder.
'Break the walls down! Break down the walls'
People in the crowd uproar as many of them down in front held up there 'Stupid Idiot' signs with Chris face on them.
Ellie smirks as she watches Chris do his signature walk from the back with that same mug as always.
The bells rings among the music as JoJo speaks. "The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a handicap match. Introducing first from Chicago Illinois, she is the RAW, WWE Women's Champion, Ellie Brooks!" She announces. "And introducing her partner from Winnipeg-Manitoba, Canada. Weighing in at 227 pounds, Chris Jericho!"
Chris comes to stand next to Ellie as he looks out at the crowd with a glare. He looks to Ellie as she gives him a nod. The two of them start walking down the ramp;towards the ring.
"Of course Kevin Owens is not out here." Cole mentions. "These three best friends have been on the outs for recent weeks."
"Just a minor separation." Corey points. "They're coming back but in the mean time we get a team like Ellie Brooks and Chris Jericho. I saw them tag before against Enzo and Sasha, these two work very well together."
"I don't know if that separation is minor Corey." Cole says. "You notice Chris Jericho isn't wearing the scarf Kevin Owens tried to give to him as a Christmas gift and I bet he didn't even tell Ellie she had one too."
Corey makes a face. "Eh, well to be fair the scarf Chris is wearing now is way more fashionable and that other one didn't go with Ellie's outfit."
"I guess the friendship suck-up campaign for Kevin Owens failed." Byron snorts.
Chris rubs his thumb against his fingers as he walks around the ring giving the people behind the barricade dirty looks as they help up there 'Stupid Idiot' signs to him.
"Idiots." Chris scoffs.
Ellie walks and uses to the ring post to swing around, she jumped and slid up on the apron to face the crowd. Chris took the steps up on the other side and got in the ring.
Ellie takes her belt off her waist and gets up on the second rope; she holds the belt up to cheers. Chris walks over, Ellie jumps off the ropes into the ring and walks over to him. The two of them stood side by side as Chris rested his elbow on her shoulder, and Ellie throws her title over her.
"That is one scary team." Byron points out. "Both of them don't look happy either."
"Ellie will be happy when she's swinging." Corey nods.
Seth Rollins theme hit to a huge reaction.
"It's, The Man." Byron cheers.
Seth walks out from the back to a loud pop as the crowd got up. He walked over to the right to get that side of the crowd hyped up before making his way to the left.
"And their opponent, from Davenport Iowa. Weighing in at 217 pounds. Seth Rollins!" JoJo introduces him.
Chris leans down and whispers to Ellie who's eyes were dead locked on Seth with a glare that could kill.
"Seth Rollins, set to go against Chris Jericho and Ellie Brooks in a handicap match here at Roadblock:End of the Line in International Flair. As this is here tonight at our final PPV event of 2016." Cole said.
Seth flips his hair back and raises his arms up, he shadow hits the air and makes his way down to the ring.
The announce teams started to introduce the other announcers for the different languages.
Ellie takes off her jacket to some whistles from people, she hands it off and her title to the timekeeper.
Seth locked eyes with Chris and his glare hardened but he ignores him and gets inside of the ring. Ellie held the ropes and sits in between them behind Chris with her legs folded as she bounced. Her eyes never left Seth. Those light hazel eyes of hers stayed locked on him like a target, with every move he made her eyes followed him.
"Guys, did you ever think for one second you would see Seth Rollins in a match with Ellie?" Cole asks.
"Never." Corey admits. "I mean, Ellie and Seth have had one hell of a year here in the WWE. Seth coming back from injury early, and Ellie becoming the WWE Women's champion and just breaking down barriers every time she steps in a ring. When is the last time you have seen a woman standing across from a man, this is a handicap match but these two have to get in the ring and wrestle each other. These are two people who were in a physical relationship, a relationship that's so broken it drove them to this point. Both want revenge, both want to hurt the other, but one of them is also trying to save someone who I just don't think wants to be saved. I applaud Seth for this, I do, but this really may not be Triple H in her ear and this may be Ellie."
"I don't know about that Corey." Byron shakes his head. "Ellie keeps saying that there are reasons for what she has done to Seth and period but she just isn't ready to say why. I know a lot of it is from Seth and his attitude but something is driving this Ellie who is not the same as the woman that walked through those doors back in October."
"I agree with both of you." Cole said. "I talked to both of them before Roadblock. Seth wants to get his hands on her for what she's done but he wants to help her and according to his 'sources' he knows how to snap Ellie out of what she's doing."
"That's just it. What if there is nothing to snap her out of?" Corey questions. "Ellie has never denied that she cared for him but after all that hurt she says it's nothing there anymore and I believe it. I watched the hurt she put Seth Rollins through, we all did. Seth is a man possessed at getting his hands on Triple H and knows the only way he can do that is to get through Chris, Kevin and Ellie but he also wants Ellie back at the same time."
"Love is confusing." Byron scoffs.
"Can say that again." Corey chuckles. Seth takes his shirt off and throws it into the crowd. He looks over his shoulder at Ellie who stared back at him with an unreadable expression. "It's even more hard when you can't tell what Ellie is thinking."
"I asked Seth if he could do this tonight and he said yes." Cole says. "Can you hurt the woman you care about? And he was honest, if to get her back has to go this route, then so be it."
"I'm interested in Seth's resources about Ellie." Byron brows knot together. "Watching that interview with you two. Saying Ellie can flip her emotions off. Have you ever heard of that?"
"Have you ever heard of a woman having three counter parts to herself. One being a complete psychotic maniac that should be hospitalized, and the other the Demon Queen and wife of Balor." Corey retorts.
"Tuschae." Byron had nothing left. "It just seems odd though. I have never heard of a human being that has the capability to do that, and what for? What could she be focused on to drive her to that?"
"That's a good question." Cole nods. "Maybe it is what she has really came for. It's something she hinted at, she told me that she is coming for everyone in 2017 that has wronged her. I just like to know who they are."
The theme of Seth starts to die down.
"Good luck with her telling." Corey chuckles. "Our women's champion is the mystery gift that keeps on giving. I love her. If Seth doesn't take her back then I throw my name in the hat. Ellie might just end up throwing me off somewhere but I'll take that risk." He chuckles with Byron.
Seth turns and walks closer but the ref backs him up. "Your little best friend can't stop any of this. I'm telling you that now!" He points to her. "This ends tonight."
"Shut up Rollins!" Chris points at him, he walks over to stand in front of Ellie.
"There is going to be Seth Rollins block to Ellie, right there." Byron said. "Chris Jericho making sure he doesn't even get close."
"It's what he should do!" Corey retorts. "Chris isn't going to let Seth grab her."
Chris looks back at Ellie. "You good?"
Ellie glares at Seth, her eyes snap to Chris and she smiles. "Mhm, I'm good."
Seth backs up and hops in place as he was ready.
Chris takes his scarf off while glaring at him, he rolls his eyes and turns around;giving it to the timekeeper.
"Seth Rollins is looking for revenge and a breakthrough." Cole said. "I honestly think this isn't going to make Ellie snap out of it but I truly believe Rollins is looking for something to keep fighting for. Maybe a sign."
"If his sign is her knocking him in the face then he has had it plenty of times." Corey nods. Ellie gets out of the ring on the apron and holds the rope as Chris was going to start.
Byron watches. "Funny how Jericho is starting this match. Seth has said before that his path to Triple H, the man who along with Ellie ruined his opportunities at the Universal Championship. It starts with him trying to get through Chris and Ellie and maybe hit a nerve in Triple H with getting to Ellie."
The ref motions for the bell.
'Ding, Ding, Ding'
Chris and Seth pull out their corners as the two of them circle each other carefully.
"I'll tell you one thing, Seth Rollins better be laser focused on Chris Jericho and Ellie." Corey said. "You can't look to far past them. You're talking about a veteran and a woman who is champion and your not champion for 301 days unless you know some things."
Seth and Chris both lock up and tried to over power the other. Seth drops down sending Chris over in a flip to the other side.
Chris was stopped on knee, as Seth was already back up on his feet.
'Let's go Rollie! Y2J! Let's go Rollie! Y2J!'
Seth raises a brow and looks at them while Chris looked over his shoulder with disdain at them.
Ellie face twists up. "Can't you people chant my brothers name for once when somebody wants you to!"
"It looks like the fans are picking a side tonight to." Byron jokes. "Got a lot of Rollie supporters." Ellie covered her ears when the chanting got louder. "Ellie does not like that."
Chris stands up and back to his corner, looking between Seth and the crowd.
"I don't blame her." Corey shakes his head. "They are not in a relationship, she shouldn't have to hear this."
'Let's go Rollie! Y2J! Let's go Rollie! Y2J!' The whole arena joins in.
Ellie drops her hands from her ears. "Are you kidding me?!" She looks at them upset.
Seth takes his eyes off the crowd and draw them to Ellie. "Just admit it's a good nickname for us Elle, you admitted it before."
Ellie hangs over the ropes. "Not on your life!" Seth rolls his eyes. "I don't admit a damn thing and do not call me Elle. I don't like you and you know that!"
"...You really have anger issues. That time of the month already? I know yours and Chris sync up sometimes now cause you are always around each other." Seth nods.
Ellie glares at him wide eyed, she shakes her head. "Okay that's it."
Ellie runs inside of the ring.
"Uh-oh, Ellie!" Cole reacts.
The crowd cheers when she looked to get close but Chris grabs her up by the waist in a bear hug. He struggles as he drags her back making them boo.
"Now this may be a good part in the Architects strategy." Corey says. "Nobody can get under her skin better than a person who knows her. We all know Ellie has a temper on her, she can hold it when she wants to but I don't think tonight is an option."
Chris drags her back as she screams and fights back. "Use your words!"
"No!" Ellie shouts.
"Use your words!" He holds her back in the corner.
"I'll kill him!" Ellie tries to break Chris hands free from her waist. "He is dead!"
"Use better words!" Chris argues with her.
"Get her out of the ring Chris! Ellie get out of the ring and hold your rope!" The ref warns.
"You take that rope and wrap it around your neck! Get the hell out of my face!" Ellie shouts, her hair falling in her face. "I have been sick of this crap since 2015, so sick! I will bury you here Rollins, do you hear me?!" She stomps. "I will bury your ass twenty feet under!"
"Good grief." Corey woofs. Seth smirks, raising a brow at her. "And Seth is loving this. He knows what he is doing. I don't know if tempting the ticking bomb that is Ellie Brooks is wise but I assume he has his reasons."
"Chris has to get his partner in line." Byron warns. "That may be the one thing that mess them up." Seth head tilts amused at them. "I think a certain architect knows that too."
Chris gets her out of the ring. Ellie went to move but he points a stern finger back at her. "No." Ellie glares at Seth and rolls her eyes. "Grab the rope."
Ellie looks at him crazy. "I am not child. You can not tell me to grab some-"
"The-rope!" Chris points.
Ellie grabs it angrily as she looked up to the sky with a head shake; mumbling threats.
"Chris finally got her calm." Cole said. "That could almost cost them if they aren't too careful. However I don't think Ellie cares at this point. This is months of anger just built up. When she finally gets in there it is going to come out."
Seth nods his head as him and Chris circle each other again. The two of them run back and lock up, Chris grabs Seth in a headlock and takes them down on their knees.
"All three are accomplished superstars in their career." Cole starts back up about the match. "This match tonight guys, moves Chris Jericho into fifth place in WWE history. This is his 140th PPV match."
"That is incredible." Corey nods.
"Amazing 26 year for Chris Jericho." Byron agrees. "Now he is along side the woman who is stamping her name in the books next to him. Champion for 301 days, never lost her title defenses. The fourth woman in the Rumble, the only woman to last until the very end. First woman to be in a Hell in a Cell match, her and Charlotte, but she walked out with the title. Ellie just has a list, lets not forget that Gauntlet at Summer Slam. She has done so much already but I think she is just getting started."
Chris tightens his grip on Seth. "Not talking smug now huh? Give up Rollins!" Seth grabs onto Chris when he added more pressure. "Ask him ref! Ask him!"
"What do you say Rollins?" The ref asks but Seth shook his head no.
Seth fights up while still holding onto Chris. As he got his footing back, Seth backs Chris up into the ropes and sends him running forward. Chris bounces off and hits him with a shoulder tackle that took Seth down and rolling to the opposite side.
Chris holds out his arms with a smile and nods his head. "Drink it in." He points at Ellie who brow raises. "That was for you Elle B! The gift of Jericho!" He winks to her. "You love it, and me. I know."
"Oh good lord." Ellie frowns. "No, no." Chris winks at her again. "Mmm-mm, no. Nobody wants that." Ellie shakes her head at him. "Stop doing what you're doing. No."
Seth rested on one knee with a breather as he glares ahead at Chris.
"Jericho, giving a little gift of Jericho." Cole said.
"Ellie doesn't seem that happy with that gift." Byron chuckles at her.
"I think she's happy on the inside." Corey tries to say.
Byron shakes his head. "Yeah, I don't think so."
Chris walks to the ropes. "I told you I got this." Ellie motions to the ring with a nod. Chris puts his hand up by his ear as the crowd gives him a loud mixed reaction. "You hear that?"
"I'm sure you'd like the gift from Chris, Corey." Cole said.
"Of course." Corey scoffs. "It's the best gift I recived all year. I was thinking of giving it over to Byron tonight."
"Please don't." Byron begs.
Seth and Chris circle up once again and lock up, but this time it was more aggressive.
"Byron you're welcome, enjoy." Corey nods.
Chris gets out while twisting Seth arm around, Seth tries to break free and rolls down and twist over before flipping back up to his feet. Seth reverses and twist Chris arm and sends him over in an arm drag, he keeps Chris arm twisted and applied more pressure as he kept Chris grounded.
Ellie eyes went in concern as she watches. Seth extended Chris arm and continued to add more pressure making Chris yell out a little from the pain.
"We all know Seth Rollins has not forgotten what Chris Jericho has done to him." Cole says.
"You questioned Seth Rollins focus Corey because of Ellie and everything else but lets all agree Corey, had it not been Chris Jericho and Ellie on different occasions. You can make the point that Seth Rollins would be the WWE Universal champion." Byron argues.
"I don't disagree with you at all, Byron. I think that's entirely possible." Corey actually agreed.
Seth looks over at Ellie and motions his head down to Chris. "Come get your friend Brooks!" Chris yells out from his arm being extended. Ellie glares at Seth before looking back down at Chris. "Come run in and save him!"
Chris starts to fight up-much to Seth dismay.
"Still, Byron I can argue and tell you that Seth needs to worry about the two in the ring and not about someone in the future." Corey argues. "You can't get to Triple H if Ellie takes you out and I'm sure she is trying to." Seth twists under Chris, he takes him down with snapmare and runs to the ropes. Bouncing off, he hits Chris with a sharp kick to the chest. "Oh man!" Ellie winces at the sight.
Chris held his chest with a yell.
"Well there's your question about focus, Corey." Byron jokes. Seth went to blind side Ellie. "Rollins looking for Ellie!" The champ jumped off the apron and backs up with a glare. "Ellie saw it coming."
"Of course she did." Corey throws his hand up. "You're talking about one of the dirtiest players in the game." Seth rolls his eyes at her and goes to Chris who was about to get up but Seth hit him with a sharp kick to the back. "And again with those kicks!"
"Rollins is making Jericho pay." Byron nods.
Ellie stays watching from the floor.
Seth waits as Chris gets up to his feet and slaps him back into his own corner with a loud chop to the chest.
'Woo!' The crowd mimics Flair.
Seth starts hitting Chris with a series of strikes and chops to the chest. He grabs Chris and whips him to the other side of the ring while Ellie slowly gets back up on the apron.
Chris hits the corner; holding himself up, Seth runs to him looking for a splash but Chris hits him with a boot that sends Seth falling back to favor his mouth from the kick.
"Jericho getting that boot up." Corey calls it. "Bringing Rollins to a screeching halt." The ref slides down to check on him.
Chris uses this chance to get up on the top rope and stalk down Seth. As Seth gets to his feet, he turns around into Chris flying off the top and hitting him with a missile drop kick.
"Missile drop kick from the top!" Cole calls the move.
Chris scrambles to grab him, he covers him for the count.
"One!"
"Two-"
Seth kicks out.
"And a kick out at two by Rollins." Cole says.
Chris yanks Seth by the hair to grab him up. He lifts up on his shoulders and brings Seth slamming down on his back. Seth holds his stomach from the blow but Chris presses his foot down on him like a pin.
"Come on baby!" Chris raises his hand.
"One-"
Seth quickly kicks out before two, and rolls over to the ropes as he gets up. Chris keeps his hand raised with his show boating smirk to everyone.
"To your point earlier about Seth Rollins, Byron. The same could be same to Jericho." Corey says. Seth gets himself together and lunges at Chris with a right and massive chop. "Jericho can't underestimate Seth Rollins. We know Ellie doesn't but Chris may do. If you ask me the two people probably not doing that is them, they are both angry and focused. However all three have something to prove tonight."
Seth hits Jericho into the opposite corner with rights.
"Rollins with those big right hands, send Jericho in the corner." Cole said. Chris comes with a kick in the stomach to stop him. "That kick to the midsection, and here comes Jericho." Chris grabs Seth and bounces his face off the turnbuckle to claps from Ellie. "Of course the women's champion cheering her tag team partner on. Have you guys noticed that Ellie only went for Seth Rollins once since this match started and that was out of anger. But she has not made the move to tag in or even get close, not that Jericho is letting it happen."
"Maybe she knows her partner got this." Corey shrugs. "Chris knows Ellie still has a big match tonight against Sasha Banks. The less Ellie is in that ring the better. I just think that shows what a good friend he is."
"Oh please." Byron scoffs. "I do agree with you Cole, Ellie may have did that but she is trying to steer clear of Rollins. Might be because of the match later or something else."
"I doubt it." Corey shakes his head. Chris hits Seth with a sharp chop to the chest to 'Woo's!' from the crowd in Philly. The ref continued to warn Chris about Seth being in the corner to long. Chris hits Seth with a big two time blow to his back. "Ellie is being smart. Great strategy, don't bring her in unless you have to. Makes Rollins more angry and he might slip up. Of course he is probably already upset for being on the list of Jericho."
"I heard Byron was on there to." Cole chuckles.
"That's just an ugly rumor Ellie started." Byron said.
"I believe her." Corey shrugs. "Ellie has no reason to lie to the public."
Chris knees him sending Seth in a crouch. "Come on Rollins!" He shouts.
Ellie laughs as she lets her arms hang over the ropes. "You just don't ever learn buddy. Never ever!" She shakes her head. "So hard headed."
Chris slaps the side of Seth head. "Come on!" Seth tries to push him back but Chris knees him again and goes back to slapping the top of his head more. "Come on, come on." He jerks Seth up by his hair and shakes him.
"Just disrespect from Chris Jericho." Byron shakes his head.
Chris uppercuts Seth in the corner, he grabs him by the arm and whips him to the other side of the ring. Seth hits it and runs back out as Jericho ran to him and Seth hits him with a clothesline that takes him down.
Seth grabs up Chris before he can recover and whips him to the the ropes, he spins for the kick but Chris ducks and runs over to his corner. Chris looks back at him with wide eyes
"I think Jericho saw his life flash before his eyes!" Corey jokes.
Seth glares at him as he breathed heavily, waiting for Chris to come back out of the corner. He got tired of waiting and went to go after him but the ref backed him up.
"He's in the corner Seth, come on!" The ref warns.
Ellie slaps Chris shoulder to an uproar and head snap from Chris.
"What?!" Byron was in shock.
"A-ha, what was that Byron about her wanting to keep her distance?" Corey asks him. "You were saying?" Ellie walks the apron eyeing Seth, but she stops and glares at him. "I don't know about you but this place is coming unglued to see this!"
"I know I am!" Cole says. "This has been building for months and months! Now it is time for them to settle the hate that was made. Listen to this place!"
"It's all I can do!" Corey chuckles.
Seth glares daggers at her and slowly shakes his head. "...Don't do it."
Ellie head tilts with a smirk...
It is about to be on! Bare with me guys, new chapter being worked on as we speak! I'm pushing through, still trying to get over the flu to ( Side Note: Being sick is freaking horrible ). Ellie is up to something, what didn't she get that she wanted for the next PPV of the Royal Rumble? Who is she going to pick to face Charlotte? I know who it is, but do you?
