Hell in a Cell Pre-Show

American Airlines Center

Dallas, Texas

Daphne Consuelos was backstage in her black, leather, cat woman—like ring attire for the first time in two months. The butterflies in her stomach were finally setting in as she had no idea how the WWE Universe would react to her return to the ring. Vince McMahon wanted her to become a face, but she would have preferred to be a tweener and for April to try her attempt to become a face even more because that is what had got her over with the fans. A few days ago, she had found out that she would be beating Saraya and advancing to the match against April in the Cell later in the night. Satan's structure was the nickname that they named this demonic structure. April and her were going to make history tonight and become the first Divas to ever wrestle in Hell in a Cell. This is what Daphne lived for—intense situations. She was a master of these hardcore stipulations. It almost seemed like Hunter Levesque was making things in her favor tonight.

"How are you feeling about competing twice tonight?" Brie Danielson asked, while she was in her red ring attire because she would be wrestling her sister, Nikki Garcia-Colace and the loser becomes the winner's personal assistant for thirty days. Brie was scheduled to lose the match to Nikki, but Daphne would be coming to RAW the next night and reunite with The Bellas and telling her the future plans in store.

Brie was next to Jon Good and Colby Lopez, who all looked at Daphne doing her leg stretches, knowing that she was going to be on her A-game tonight and tonight was so important to her because she was going to become the new Divas Champion. This was going to be one of the best nights of her entire career and she felt like her head was finally together with her heart and that she was so ready to capture that championship. What also made this match better was because she was going to take away that title from April, who took her title at FCW—finally, she was going to beat April at her own game!

"I feel like your husband," Daphne stopped stretching her leg to provide her friends with the attention that they need, "However, I do not have as good as worth ethic as Bryan. I feel like I need to prove to myself tonight that the WWE is where I belong. I may have overcome my head injuries, but they could always come back with this match. I'm not going to be hesitant. I just want to reclaim my championship."

Colby grinned and laughed proudly as he went to give his girlfriend a huge hug, "That's my girl. I always knew that you were a fighter. Now, you get to fight for the one thing that you have been trying to fight for the past couple years. Take that title home, Daph." he said as he wrapped his arms around her, while watching the television, which it showed the Daphne Anne/AJ Lee/Paige feud.

"What has Paige showed me these last couple months? Nothing. What makes her think that she is worthy of another shot at my Divas Championship? I made that Anti-Diva tap out at Night of Champions! I showed her who the Best Diva in the World is and no, it's not Daphne Anne, it's me! Speaking of Daphne Anne, she's just a little girl in a woman's world. She is someone that cannot take the pressure and what does she do to get her way? She throws me off the stage! Daphne, does not know how pissed off she made me, but if I get my hands on her, I will make her feel small and pathetic like she was at SummerSlam!" AJ was in the ring, cutting a promo, which was part of the package video of the feud.

Jon knew what Daphne had went through and even know he joked like the giant asshole that he was, there was a part of him that felt concern from her. She was one of the young Indy people in the WWE. They set high standards for themselves and when they do not meet those goals, it eats them apart. He knew all about that. Jon had frustrations trying to make it up the main roster from FCW/NXT because all he wanted to do was prove that Dean Ambrose was going to take over the damn company and people had to get used to that fact.

"Are you sure you want to compete?" Jon asked her one last time, knowing that Daphne was going to enter a battleground. Daphne looked up at Colby, who still had his arms wrapped around her.

"It's your decision, Sweetheart." Colby told her, knowing that this was her WWE career and he would be happy with any choice that she made tonight. However, he hoped that she made the right decision with fighting Saraya and then April and capturing her championship that she had been waiting so long to get. Daphne thought about it—she was hoping that Colby would push her to do this title match, but she knew that this was her career that she needed to look after.

"I'm going to do this match," Daphne said, feeling more confident than ever as "Stars In The Night" by CFO$ began to blast throughout the arena as the WWE Universe cheered loudly. Paige walked out in her ring attire, consisting of her purple top and bottoms and her leather jacket. What Daphne admired about Paige was how she walked so confident to the ring. She did not give a shit that people took her confidence for arrogance because she knew that she was one of the best Divas in the WWE and she wanted to let people know that she knew that, "Man, Saraya looks confident. Hopefully, the chemistry is there."

"It will, go get the win, Bitchsuelos!" Brie cheered for her friend, hugging her as Daphne cracked her neck twice. Then, "Sellouts" by Breathe Carolina blasted throughout the arena in huge cheers and jeers, making the Ultimate Diva smirk as she turned on her heel and pushing through the curtain.

"Introducing her opponent, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, making her return to the WWE, Daphne Anne!" Eden beamed as Daphne Anne stood on the ramp, acting as confident as her character would allow her to be. This is what she has been wanting to do—she has been waiting for the moment to finally become Divas Champion. Daphne entered the ring as Paige stood across from her, not looking impressed with Daphne and just wanting the match to begin. Daphne stood at one corner, Paige at the other one and the referee in the middle. He rang for the bell as Daphne and Paige walked to the middle of the ring, giving each other looks of death.

"You think that you can get a Divas Championship shot out of thin air?" Paige questioned her seriously, "Well, you're going to have to get through me, if you want that to happen."

Daphne smirked back, "You weren't thinking that the night after WrestleMania?" she retorted, "But, I'll earn my championship opportunities, if that is what you like."

Paige nodded as the two Divas began to lock up. Paige slowly pushed Daphne to one of the corners as she held on her neck, before the count of five. The ref backed her up enough for Daphne to kick Paige in the gut and let her be the one in the corner now. Daphne applied pressure of Paige's neck with her foot as she stretched it back. The referee counted to five, before Daphne backed away with her arms in surrender. She grabbed Paige by her arm and wanted to whip her to the other corner, but Paige applied a headlock on Daphne and connected with a takedown. Daphne's shoulders were down, so the referee began to count, Daphne quickly got her shoulder up. The two Divas were up, before Paige delivered one of her harsh superkicks on Daphne, before going for a cover. Daphne kicked out at two.

"Daphne seems to be having a little ring rust." Jerry Lawler assumed as he noticed that Daphne was not in control like she always was. It seemed like she was a little lost, but he did not want to count her out of the game so quickly. He felt like she could pull off his victory.

Paige connected with a hair slam to the mat, she grabbed Daphne by her hair and connected with several vicious head-butts. Daphne needed to think of the way to get the match back on her control, but there was no telling what she needed to do. Paige used the ropes to bounce herself and connected with a mini-dropkick to Daphne, before going for another cover. Daphne kicked out as Paige grabbed her and intended to go for a fisherman's suplex, but Daphne kept blocking it. With all of her strength, Daphne was able to connect with a northern lights suplex on Paige, before rolling herself on top of her and delivering a series of punches directed at her face. Daphne went for a quick cover, but Paige kicked out in one and a half. Daphne grabbed Paige by the hair—a little revenge from what Paige did earlier and took her in between the ropes. Daphne grabbed her leg around Paige's neck and opened her mouth with her hands and stretched Paige's mouth open.

The referee began to count to five, but Daphne released the hold at four. She then got on Paige's back and stretched the ropes upward, applying pressure onto her back. She was pulling out some tricks out of Christian's playbook as the referee began to count again, but she got off quickly. Daphne then went for a school girl rollup, but Paige was able to kick out and deliver a vicious sidekick to Daphne again. It was out of the blue as Paige went for the cover quickly; but, Daphne kicked out at two in a half. Paige thought that this would be the good time to connect with the Paige-Turner, but Daphne tried to fight her way out of the Paige-Turner, but it was no good because Paige was able to connect with it and go for the cover. At the last second, Daphne put her foot on the rope and luckily, the referee was able to see her doing that. Paige was beginning to look frustrated as she picked up Daphne, intending to connect with the RamPaige, but Daphne pushed Paige back into the ropes and connected with a knee to the stomach and then a swinging neck breaker, before going for the cover. Paige kicked out at two.

"Let's go Paige; let's go Daphne!" the crowd was divided between these two Divas. The both of them would make a good champion and they wanted to see one of them face AJ Lee for the Divas Championship. The both of them would make worth opponents.

Paige got herself up as she and Daphne began to exchange punches to each other, before going for a series of different rollups with each other. The WWE Universe was amazed by the different amount of rollups that each Diva knew that they were sad at the fact that the two of them could not be winners. With Daphne's last attempt at a rollup, Paige attempted to counter with the PTO—her go-to submission hold that has submitted every Diva. Daphne tried to fight her way out of it. She could not afford to lose this match, but with all of her strength, Daphne made it to the bottom rope on time, clutching it with dear life. While Paige exchanged words with the referee, Daphne slittered down and knocked Paige's foot down her with arm, making Paige fall back as Daphne quickly connected with her heel hook—the Bitch Lock. Paige had the submission hold locked onto her in the center of the ring. Daphne held onto that submission with dear life, refusing to let go. Paige was crying out in pain as she had no other choice, but to tap out. The bell rang as Daphne sat there in victorious.

"The winner and number one contender for the Divas Championship, Daphne Anne!" Eden beamed as Daphne got her arm raised in victory by the referee. She was just one step closer to taking the championship away from AJ! She was going to be the one to end AJ's title reign and she was more than happy to do that.

Backstage, Divas Champion AJ Lee watched the number one contender's match with Paige and Daphne and knew what she was going to have to deal with in Daphne Anne, but when the two of them clash, people always have something to talk about. April Brooks and AJ Lee were the same person sometimes because the wheels on their heads were always turning.

Like they were right now, because AJ/April knew how to approach this Cell match tonight.


So, what could possibly be in April's mind? How will it come to play in the cell match against Daphne? Will this be Daphne's shinning moment or will something happen that will ruin her chances?
