Notes: This fic of course will be an AU to Money in the Bank and beyond. As much as I'd love to see Dean Ambrose win, I don't think we'd all be so lucky. I was thinking of having things really come down in this chapter but I'm thinking of a nice chapter to set things up. Calm before the storm. Thanks for reviews, follows, and favorites.
Triple H was still fuming backstage as he watched Ambrose and Rollins make their way up the ramp. He went into his office as they had time before the second Money in the Bank Match. He was glad no one was currently in the office to bother him. That was one of the pluses to firing Brad Maddox and Vickie Guerrero. He didn't have them breathing down his neck and screwing up all of his plans. If it wasn't for Vickie Guerrero, Roman Reigns wouldn't be in the Money in the Bank Title match.
He turned his laptop on and started searching for the phone number of a place he had talked to before. He wondered briefly as he typed it into his cellphone if Seth Rollins even knew what he did that night on Smackdown. There was one way to take care of a rabid hound.
Roman Reigns greeted Seth and Dean as they left the ring. He hugged both of them. "Congratulations!" He said to Dean before turning to Seth. "You were right. Evolution never saw that coming."
"Like I said, Hunter's so focused on winning he misses the little things." Seth said. "I mean we are brothers. Greed's not going to break us up." Seth said putting his arms around both Dean and Roman.
"Still say you didn't have to hit us with the chairs so hard," Dean said rubbing at his shoulder. It was usually a nervous habit but lately it had been bothering him. William Regal had dislocated it in a match in Florida Championship Wrestling. His match with Bray Wyatt had aggravated the old injury and his opponents since that match had taken advantage of it.
"I've told you I had to make it look convincing." Seth said.
Dean just grinned. "I know," he held up the briefcase one more time still finding it hard to believe that this was his. He had come close last year in the match but had fallen short of winning it when Damian Sandow won it. Now it was his. "I can't wait to face you for the title Roman."
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves," Roman said. "I still have to win the match. There are some tough guys out there. Kane, John Cena, Bray Wyatt, Randy Orton, and Cesaro. I don't think it'll be easy."
"Not to mention Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio," Seth said, "but don't worry Roman. You've got this!"
"And if Triple H tries to stick his nose into the match we'll stop him," Dean said. "I need to rearrange someone's face," he said pounding his fist against the palm of his hand.
Seth chuckled. "Calm down man. You've already stuck it to Triple H by winning the briefcase. Now he gets to explain that to the stockholders." He said paraphrasing what Dean had said after RAW last week on Backstage Pass.
Roman grinned. "You can believe that. I wish we could be at the meeting when he explains it."
Roman's music started to play. "Now you've got a title to win." He said and playfully shoved him towards the entrance to the ring.
Dean and Seth went to the monitor and watched the whole match backstage. They had tried to go out to the ring but security stopped them saying only the participants and their managers could be out there. They didn't argue because if need be, they could both get out to the ring quickly if Triple H tried something to stop Roman Reigns from the title.
Dean started unwrapping the tape from his wrists as he sat down in one of the backstage chairs. Seth's phone started to buzz and he looked down and saw he had a text from his fiancé Leighla Schultz. The match hadn't started yet so Ambrose got up. "I'll be back," he said, "I'm going to go get some water." He said and walked away.
Seth sat there watching the match and didn't notice Dean hadn't come back.
Notes: Next chapter we'll see if Roman won and where Dean is. Hope you enjoyed it.
