The look on AJ Lee's face spoke volumes. She knew she had been caught with her hand in the cookie jar.
"That's right, AJ, your lie has been exposed. You attempt to hide who you were fraternizing with by using the CEO's husband, causing Lila McMahon Morgan to suspend her father, Vince McMahon."
"And"
"And nothing, AJ. Do you have any idea what that was like for Lila to do to her father, who not only created the WWE but his daughter as well."
"No, I have no idea what that was like for her."
"Yeah, we all know because it is all about you; everyone else is just a little pawn in your sick games that you play. How long will it be before you get tired of Ziggler and move on to someone else?"
