Author's Note: Here is chapter 44. So Wrestlemania ended up being three chapters. I apologize for that, but the chapter ended up becoming this. This Divas Match is the longest I've ever written. The Pai-J before the match, the match, and what happens after is pretty much more than half the chapter, with some Cena/Nikki and Main Event parts.

Update: June 28, 2015

JOHN stood there, ready to have his rematch with Rusev. He was ready to be the first person to beat him.

"Are you ready?" Nikki asked, as she wrapped her arms from behind.

John grinned and turned. "I'll bring us the gold." He leaned forward and kissed her lips.

Nikki laughed against them.

Their friends all cheered for him as he headed out.

"Wrestlemania is almost over. And we'll have most of the championships. Can you guys believe it?" Daniel asked, as he returned from his interview with Renee Young.

"No. Our match is almost up, are you ready for it?" AJ asked, looking at Paige, who just grinned and nodded.

"Ready as I'll ever be. It's going to be great. A ladder match? Who doesn't want that?"

Emma and Summer looked at each other. "You do."

Paige had just finished her Hell in a Cell match with AJ. Emma, Summer, and Paige were talking about the jump she had made. "I am never jumping off something that high again."

"What if they have a Divas Ladder match?" Summer asked.

"Then I'm pushing people. I'm not doing the falling."

Emma and Summer laughed at the comment.

"Yeah, well falling hurts. Right Dean?"

"Shut up."

"You were great," Nikki whispered onto John's mouth. He just grinned. "I am so proud of you."

"The United States was my first championship. It's great to have it back in my hands, you know?"

Nikki didn't respond. She just wrapped her arms around him. John wrapped his arms around her.

"But you know what is better than this belt?"

Nikki shook her head. She then placed it against this chest, not moving her arms from him.

"Having the chance to call you my wife."

Nikki looked up at him, and could only see love in his eyes. He leaned down to kiss her.

"ARE you ready for this?" AJ asked Paige, who seemed to be nervous.

"I think so. This has been my dream, you know? Since I got into wrestling, and now I'm here. I'm going to wrestle in that ring, in front of thousands. In the biggest event."

AJ grinned. "You have a great career. You have so much ahead of you. And look at what you've done in the last year. You had a championship match with Emma at the first ever WWE Network event. You won the championship on your first day, you held both belts at the same time, and the first one to have held them. You were in the first ever Divas Hell in a Cell match, you fought in a Cage match, a tables match. You fought for to be the first ever Divas Tag Team champion, and if you get the title, you'll be the first person to have held the three titles. And we're having the first ever Divas Ladder match for the Divas Championship at Wrestlemania. If anyone should be nervous, it should be me."

Paige smiled. "Thanks."

AJ shrugged. "I wasn't lying. This is going to be the event I'll always remember. And I don't mean it because of our history."

"I know what you mean," Paige whispered, as she stared at AJ. "I want you to know something, before you go out there."

AJ looked at Paige, waiting for whatever Paige was going to tell her. She could feel her heart beating hard. She could feel her hands clam up.

"I-I wanted you to know that I don't regret dating you. I think it helped me. If it weren't for you, for what we had, I don't think I would ever feel like this. I feel like nothing can knock me down. You helped me beat Sami, and it means a lot AJ. I just wanted you to know that."

AJ wanted to respond, but her song came out and she had to go out there. She looked at Paige and gave her a smile, before going out there.

"The following is a Ladder match for the divas championship. Introducing first, the challenger, from Union City, New Jersey, AJ Lee!"

AJ smiled as she saw the group of people waiting there. She skipped to the ring.

"Her opponent, she is the Divas Champion, Paige!"

Paige walked out to a pop. Just like AJ did.

Paige couldn't believe it. She had been called up in less than a year, and already she had a big Wrestlemania moment.

She headed to the ring, and then looked at AJ.

They were both ready. They waited for the bell to go off.

And it did. Paige and AJ grappled, as they tried to see who would get the upper hand. Paige ended up pushing AJ to the corner

AJ kicked her away. She clotheslined her when Paige stood up straight. She did it again, and again.

The twenty-eight year old tried to whip Paige onto the ropes, but Paige reversed it.

When AJ returned, Paige kicked her. AJ was sprawled on the ground. Paige started to head to get a ladder, but AJ grabbed her leg. She pulled it, and Paige fell forward, her face hitting the mat.

AJ stood up and looked down to Paige. She grabbed her by her hair and turned her. Grabbing her head, she turned and went down, performing the swinging neckbreaker.

While Paige was down, AJ got out of the ring and grabbed a ladder. She looked at it for a few seconds, not sure if it was tall enough to help her get the title hanging above the ring.

She shrugged, as she closed it and grabbed it. It was pretty heavy, but she was able to handle it. She turned with it, only to have the ladder hit her, after Paige kicked it.

AJ went down, the ladder on top of her. Paige grabbed the ladder and slid it into the ring. She looked down to AJ before heading inside. She set the ladder up.

AJ slowly got back up. She could see Paige climb up the ladder. She ran inside and grabbed Paige's leg.

The Brit looked down to AJ. Paige's were eyes wide. AJ smiled and pulled her leg, watching Paige hit the mat, hard.

She groaned, when she felt the impact. AJ walked over and started to climb the ladder.

Not wasting any time, Paige stood up and went to the side to pushed the ladder down.

AJ pushed herself away from the ladder, not wanting to get too hurt.

Paige walked up to AJ. She looked around. She got out of the ring, and looked under it. She started to take out anything and everything under there. A few chairs, two tables. A few kendo sticks.

She wanted to go all out in her match. She looked up to see AJ slowly start to get up. She slid a table and two chairs in. She got into the ring and tried to clothesline AJ, but the shorter woman ducked. AJ clotheslined her instead. AJ picked her up. She dropkicked Paige.

The Brit rolled out of the ring. She stood near the ramp. AJ smirked and placed a chair next to ropes. She took a few steps back, waiting for Paige to be ready.

Taking a breath, AJ ran forward, as she used the chair to jump over the ropes and onto Paige.

Referees ran to check on the girls, who seemed to be in pain on the ramp.

Both women pushed them away, wanting to get back in the match.

AJ got up first and headed to the ring. She set the ladder up and placed a table up, incase would need it. She started to head up. But Paige ran to her. She went up behind AJ, and started to slam her fists on the short girl's back. It stopped AJ. Paige looked down and turned. She moved up so the AJ's legs were on her shoulders, and did a sit-down powerbomb.

Paige used the ladder to stand up. She looked up at her title handing above her. She looked down to AJ, who was on her back.

She turned and started to head up the ladder.

AJ was able to roll over and get onto her hands and knees. She looked up to see Paige get near the title. AJ could see Paige touch it.

It was enough to motivate her. She rushed to the other side and up the ladder. Soon enough, they were both standing in front of each other.

Paige went to hit her, and then AJ hit back. It went on for a while.

Paige was able to almost get AJ off the ladder. But AJ wasn't going to go down alone. She started to move on the ladder, making it tip back and forth.

"What are you doing?!" Paige exclaimed, as she felt the ladder start to lose its balance.

AJ moved it one last time, and the ladder tipped over. They both fell on the ring.

The crowd started to do the this is awesome chants.

AJ and Paige started to get up at the same time. AJ grabbed the chair that was next to her. She threw it to Paige, who grabbed it, confused.

AJ smirked, and kicked the chair, that ended up hitting Paige on her face.

AJ grabbed the chair and placed it in the corner. She grabbed Paige's arm and pulled her up. Once she was standing, she whipped her to the corner. Paige hit the chair and went down.

AJ looked at the ladder that was on the ground, and just pushed it out. She went to get a new one.

She grabbed a new one and was ready to head to the ring, but she saw Paige on the outer side of the ring. Her eyes widened, as she watched Paige run forward and cannonball onto AJ and the ladder.

Both girls seemed to be in pain.

Neither of them were getting up.

The referees were checking on both girls, wanting to see if they were both okay to continue.

Paige nodded, saying that she wanted to continue. She grabbed the ladder and pulled it with her as she stood up and headed to the ring. She slid it in and went in with it. She looked down to see AJ still on the ground.

She set the ladder up and started to climb up. She could feel her muscles try to give up on her. She was close.

AJ crawled into the ring. She pushed the table she set up at the bottom of the ladder and climbed onto it. She decided to get revenge, and try to powerbomb Paige.

Paige looked down to see AJ under her. She gripped the ladder as AJ turned and gripped her waist.

Her hands lost their grip, and both girls felt onto the table.

Paige could feel fresh scratches on her body from the impact.

AJ took the moment to get onto the ladder.

Paige was not giving up that easily. She got up onto the other side of the ladder. They started to hit each other again, and again, Paige got the advantage. But Paige was not going to have a repeat of the last time. She grabbed AJ by her hair and started to go up the ladder even more until she was on the highest step. She pulled AJ closer and placed her in her DDT.

Paige took a deep breath before doing the Ram-Paige off the ladder.

AJ was out. She was sprawled on the ground.

Paige, using whatever strength she could muster, started to crawl up the ring. She looked down, to see that AJ was still not getting up. She reach up, and felt the title in her hand. She took a few more steps up. She looked down, and saw AJ slowly coming to.

Paige didn't have a lot of time. She reached up and gripped the clip. She looked down and smiled. She moved the clip and took out her title.

Paige held her belt high. She had a huge smile on her face. AJ just stared at her from the ground. She couldn't help but laugh. She heard the bell ring and Paige was declared as the champion.

AJ wanted to win, she wanted to win so bad, but she knew it wasn't all that bad.

Paige climbed down the ladder. She held the arms high, as the referee held her hand.

AJ stood up and walked over to her. She smiled at Paige, who seemed to be radiating happiness.

"You beat me, again," AJ said, grinning.

Paige shrugged. "I guess I did."

AJ laughed. Paige just walked into her open arms and hugged her.

It was now or never.

AJ pulled away, grabbed Paige's face and kissed her.

Paige froze against her, not sure what to do.

The fans went crazy. They all assumed something was going on, but never had it confirmed. They had seen pictures, had seen tweets between them. But there was never anything official. And now, in the middle of the ring, they were kissing, or AJ was kissing a frozen Paige.

Paige pulled away, not sure what to say. And she didn't have time. They had to leave to get the next match ready. AJ gave her a small smile, and Paige knew they would have to talk later.

BROCK Lesner kicked out. Roman couldn't believe it. He stood up and went to the corner. He got ready. When Brock stood up, he ran towards the Beast, his fist ready. But Brock was able to reverse it and place Roman on his back.

Brock F-5'd the Samoan.

Both men were on the ground.

Everyone turned when they heard Seth Rollin's song. They couldn't believe it when they saw the dual-haired man run towards the ring, his briefcase at hand. Was he really going to betray his brother?

Cliffhanger!
