Fans moved out of the way as Ambrose went tumbling down the stairs. He landed in a heap almost at the bottom. Security and Doc Ammon were at his side as Rollins and Reigns hurried down as well.
"Dean," Doc Ammon asked, "can you hear me?" He said as he started to carefully examine him. Ambrose just groaned. He took out his radio. "Need a board and a stretcher." He said into it.
Rollins and Reigns arrived and squatted down next to Ammon. "What happened," Seth asked.
"Ambrose tripped and fell down the stairs." Ammon said.
"Was pushed," Ambrose wheezed. "Someone pushed me from behind.
The security looked up at the fans who were jostling each other for a better view.
They loaded Ambrose onto a board. One of the security guards hurried ahead to open up the barricade. RAW's opening music started playing as Ambrose was loaded on a stretcher and wheeled to the back.
At the announce table Lawler and Cole stood there with their mouths open. The cameraman pointed at them letting them know they were live on the air. They quickly composed themselves.
"Fans before RAW went on the air, Dean Ambrose was making his way down the stairs when he tripped and fell. He's been taken to the back to have the trainers examine him. We will keep you posted."
Ambrose waited for Sampson to come back in. Other than feeling a little sore, he didn't think anything was broken. He knew that he was lucky.
Sampson and Dusty entered the trainer's rom. "This isn't what I meant when I suggested how your ankle felt," Sampson joked.
"Not my fault. Someone pushed me from behind." He saw the frown on Dusty's face. "What?"
"Dean we looked at the footage and there was no one near you. You couldn't have been pushed."
"I know what I felt," Ambrose said. "Someone pushed me from behind!" He said growing agitated.
"Dean you didn't remember going back to your room this morning," Seth reminded him. "Maybe he needs a CAT scan or something."
"There's nothing wrong with my head," he growled. Seth held his hands up. Ambrose turned his attention back to Sampson. "So how am I?"
"You'll be sore," Sampson said, "but I don't see any serious injuries and you will still probably be able to wrestle at Battleground."
Ambrose got up. "I'm going to do commentary," he said and left the trainer's room.
"So there's no head injury," Seth asked.
"None. He passed the IMPACT test. He's really lucky he didn't suffer any serious injuries."
"Thanks Doc," Roman said. He and Seth left the trainer's room. "I'm worried about Dean. I know he's always been a little crazy but something's wrong with him."
Dusty walked out of the Trainer's room.
"Can we see the videos of Dean walking out," Seth asked.
"Sure," he said leading them over to the Gorilla Position. "Seth and Roman want to see Dean's entrance," he said. The person sitting at the table keyed up the video. They stood there and watched it and then watched it in slow motion.
"No one touched Dean," Seth said in disbelief, "and yet he just fell down the stairs."
Roman didn't say anything but the look on his face said enough. There was something wrong with Ambrose.
"Everything is going according to plan," a man said into his cellphone after making sure no one was around to hear him. "We await your next orders. The Shield will go down in flames starting with Ambrose just like you requested.
Notes: Sorry for another short chapter. This was a glimpse into how far they will push Ambrose. It's not going to be easy for anyone in this story.
