AN: HELLO READERS! It's been awhile huh. Last chapter I posted was in November. It took awhile but I finally managed to get this one done. I really love this chapter, so I hope you all enjoy it!

Chapter 22: The Headstrong Diva vs. The Vicious Vixen

"Maybe you should avoid unprotected chair shots to the head from now on," Sheree commented, smiling nervously as she leaned against the door frame of the training room. "I think we all should to be honest."

The young Bostonian was wearing her 'Headstrong' themed crop top, the lettering in bold red writing and black fingerless gloves. Sheree had switched out her faded black skinny jeans for plain black leather wrestling tights, that was tucked into a pair of black kneepads and her signature black kick-pads attached to her boots with the silver studs running down the back of it. To add to her slightly new wardrobe, she wore a black leather jacket.

Melina supressed a wince as Bob closed up the cut on her forehead with the thirteenth and last stitch.

"You hear that?" the old man growled. "A Huxley is lecturing you right now."

"Yeah, yeah whatever..." the Latin-American grumbled.

Roxanna sighed. "Maybe you're right. We're both lucky that neither of us were concussed or worse during the final leg of this feud. Even though the old man gave us the leeway to take unprotected shots, he clearly wasn't very happy about it."

"He's never been fond of the Divas taking any crazy risks like that," Sheree added.

"And I don't blame him," Bob retorted.

"The fellas are taking chair shots to the skull all the time," Melina grumbled, pouting. "So why can't we?"

"Because it's dangerous," Bob commented firmly. "After everything that's come out about these unprotected chair shots, I'd advise heavily against it. And to be honest with you, I don't like it when the fellas do it either. It endangers your mental health and your career."

Bob frowned. "I don't have to remind you girls what happened in that infamous "I Quit" match between Mick and Dwayne do I?"

Sheree frowned deeply, while Melina sighed in defeat.

"Please don't remind me," Roxy groaned, cringing at the thought.

"Metalingus" by Alter Bridge played in the background to shocked and angry reactions, gaining their attention.

"Sounds like Adam pulled off another win against Rey," Sheree commented with amusement, pushing off the door frame.

"That means he's facing Taker at Mania," Melina noted with a chuckle. "Someone ain't gonna be champion for long."

"Hey. At least he's being put in a high spot," Roxy replied.

"Adam's been a top star for awhile now. The fact he's getting Taker at Mania is great news!" Sheree exclaimed excitedly, beginning to take her leave. "I'd better go. See you guys later!"

"Good luck!" Roxanna called out as the young Bostonian left.

"So… Mark gets Edge. And you get Beth," Melina mused. "One's World Heavyweight Champion. The other is one of the most dominant Women's Champion in history. Y'all got your work cut out for you."

"I know," Roxy replied with a grin. "So do you though. You're getting either Victoria, a former champ, or Sheree, a fiery underdog with a hidden mean streak and a ton of potential. Not to mention you're set to walk into Mania as champion for the second straight year."

"We making history up in this bitch!" Melina cheered with a laugh, making Roxanna and Bob laugh along with her.

"Sounds like you've all got a busy couple of weeks ahead of you," the old man commented, and then groaned. "Just try not to go overboard."

The two women simply chuckled in response.

. . . .

The heavy riffs of "Headstrong" by Trapt played throughout the arena to a huge reception from the Las Vegas crowd.

"Now the risk this woman is about to take," JR started, the Thomas & Mack Center only getting louder as Sheree stepped through the curtains and out onto the stage, smiling as the fans gave her a good hand. She paused at the top of the rampway, surveying the scenery. "Is a bold one to say the least."

"The following contest is scheduled for one fall! The winner of this match will challenge Melina for the WWE Women's Championship at WrestleMania!" Lilian Garcia announced as Sheree proceeded to make her way down the rampway, the fans cheering in various degrees of surprise and excitement. "Introducing first, from Boston, Massachusetts, Sheree Louise!"

"Oh wow..." King breathed. "She's really gonna go through with this?!"

"I have to question Sheree's intentions here," JR commented as the brunette-haired woman entered the ringside area. "Putting what could possibly be the biggest night of her career on the line is not smart."

"I agree," King added as Sheree walked up the steel steps and across the apron, looking out into the large Las Vegas crowd with that confident smirk on her face, the fans cheering in response.

Sheree stepped through the ropes, walking towards the corner opposite the timekeepers area and stepping up onto the middle ropes, holding her arms out wide to a loud reaction from the crowd. "This is a brash and reckless decision by Sheree. She might not ever get another shot at the gold if she loses here tonight."

"Look," Jenna sighed as Sheree lowered her arms, smiling at the fans response. "I agree that this wasn't a wise choice. I question it too."

Sheree jumped off the ropes, traversing the entire length of the squared circle to the opposite corner and stepping up onto the second ropes, surveying the excited crowd as her music went silent. "But you gotta understand, Victoria has put Sheree through hell these last few months. Sheree is tired of it and wants to shut Victoria up once and for all."

"I ain't the Lady to mess with! WHOOOP!"

Sheree frowned and stepped off the middle ropes as "Don't Mess With" played throughout the arena to a chorus of boos, moving back to stand near the ropes opposite the broadcast table.

The negative reaction from the fans increased as Victoria appeared from behind the minitron, sauntering her way to the ring with a smug smirk on her face.

"And her opponent, from Los Angeles, California, Victoria!" Lilian Garcia announced, the short-haired woman laughing at the poison-eyed glare on Sheree's face as she walked down the aisle.

"Victoria was already dangerously ruthless heading into this bout," JR said. "But this added stipulation is only going to make her even more ruthless."

"But I do worry that because of this stipulation, Victoria may be looking past Sheree," King commented as Victoria entered the ringside area, pulling herself up onto the ring apron using the ropes. "I'm not sure, but something tells me she believes she already has this match won. And as we've seen recently taking Sheree lightly is a BIG mistake."

"Victoria claims that Sheree doesn't belong on the grand stage of WrestleMania," Jenna said as Victoria stood on the apron, shaking her head as she smirked at the brunette. "That it should be her."

Victoria entered the ring, that smirk never leaving her face as Sheree glared at her. "I don't agree... and neither does Sheree."

Victoria stepped up to the Headstrong Diva, ignoring the official who was trying to keep the two separated, her smirk widening. "You're dumb. You're really dumb!"

Sheree didn't say a word. She just glared at the older woman who turned away from her, stepping up onto the bottom ropes opposite the hard camera and leaning forward with a smirk.

"The guts that Sheree has to request this stipulation of her own volition is admirable. I'll admit that," JR noted as Victoria stepped off the ropes, smirking at Sheree who regarded the older woman with silent contempt. "But this is a huge, HUGE gamble. Personal or not, everything could come crashing down for Sheree in three seconds tonight."

Victoria shook her head as her theme music faded into the background, that smug grin still on her face, never looking away from Sheree as she stood across from her.

"I warned you!" Victoria sang threateningly, giggling as Sheree continued to glare at her. "I told you what would happen if you came out here!"

Sheree slowly shrugged off her leather jacket, not taking her eyes off Victoria as she handed the jacket to a stagehand.

"Look at the eyes of Sheree. Complete and utter focus."

"She's ready for a fight," Jenna added with a smirk. "I can tell."

"I will ruin you kid!" the older woman yelled, her smirk widening dangerously as the referee prepared to signal for the bell to ring.

'Ding! Ding! Ding!'

"I'm gonna-"

"WHOA!" King exclaimed, the fans releasing a loud and shocked 'OHHH!' as Sheree bolted across the ring, dropkicking Victoria through the ring ropes.

"Oh my god!" Jenna yelped over the ruckus roar of the crowd as Victoria tumbled out of the ring, hitting the floor painfully.

"Good lord what a dropkick!" JR cried out as Sheree shot up onto her feet with an enraged roar, the fans cheering louder in response. "Sheree like a bolt of lightning, just blasted Victoria off her feet!"

"She dropkicked her out of the ring!" King yelled out in shock.

Sheree quickly rolled out of the ring as Victoria stumbled to her feet, advancing towards the short-haired woman with a purpose. "Victoria is dazed! Sheree caught her completely off guard!"

Sheree grabbed the older woman by the hair, scowling thickly as she sent Victoria barrelling violently into the ring steps. "Oh! My word!"

"And Victoria is sent crashing through the steel steps!" JR commentated, the fans verbally wincing as Victoria's body shifted the stairs out of place upon impact. "Good grief! Sheree came out guns blazing!"

"Oh no..." Jenna gulped at the killer look in Sheree's blue eyes as she loomed over a stunned Victoria, a dangerous scowl of contempt fixed onto her face.

"The look in Sheree's eyes has not changed since the bell rang!" JR exclaimed.

"I know that look..." Jenna muttered with an edge of fear. "Victoria is in serious trouble."

"Sheree's pissed off!" King added with a look of shock. "I don't blame her either!"

"Get up," Sheree growled, grabbing a fist full of Victoria's hair and pulling the woman back up onto her feet.

"Victoria has been antagonizing Sheree for weeks," JR commented as Sheree rocked Victoria with a vicious chop across the chest, making the older woman stumble back with a cry of pain as a collection of woos rang throughout the arena. "My god what a chop! And Sheree is about to make her pay for it!"

"Good grief!" King winced as Sheree caught Victoria in the face with a ruthless forearm, sending her stumbling into the barricade. "What a forearm! Wow!"

Sheree snarled, the fans reacting excitedly as the Bostonian blitzed Victoria's chest with a shoot kick to the chest, nearly sending her over the barricade. "Jesus!"

"Oh god!" Jenna groaned with a wince.

"Good grief!" JR exclaimed as Sheree rocked the Vicious Vixen with another stiff kick to the chest, making her nearly curse in pain. "Sheree blitzing Victoria with those powerful aggressive kicks!"

"We talk about Tara's striking game a lot- Jesus!" King cried out as Sheree connected with one more devastating kick, making Victoria cry out, stumbling away from the woman. "But the striking game of Sheree is a different type of VIOLENT!"

Sheree chased after the woman with a scowl, viciously grabbing Victoria by the hair, the fans at ringside releasing cries of surprise as the Californian was launched aggressively into the security wall back-first. "Oh my goodness!"

"Victoria sent barrelling into the barricade!" JR called out as Sheree released another roar, firing up the fans as she stomped away from Victoria, who was lying on her side, completely stunned. "Sheree is on fire!"

"Where is all this coming from?!" King questioned in total shock, the fans roaring with approval.

"Get back in this ring now Sheree!" the referee demanded, only to freeze when the Boston brunette pinned him down with an ice cold glare.

"Oh... oh wow..."

"The referee may want to tread carefully," JR said, noticing the dangerous look on Sheree's face as she regarded the official with a look of sheer malice, making him slowly step back, holding his hands up in defence. "My god... that look on Sheree's face... she is in a completely different zone right now."

"Is that even Sheree right now?!" King exclaimed as the Headstrong Diva turned her attention back onto the Vicious Vixen, prowling towards the older woman.

"I-I don't even know what to tell you right now..." Jenna muttered nervously as Sheree grabbed a fist full of Victoria's two-toned locks, dragging her to her feet and pulling her along, throwing the older woman back into the ring.

"And the action, going back to where it should be. Inside the squared circle," JR said as Sheree calmly rolled back into the ring, Victoria stumbling to her feet.

The angry brunette grabbed Victoria by her short hair, ignoring the referee's warning as she rushed the older woman into the corner opposite the timekeepers area, bashing her face into the turnbuckle.

"Oof!" King winced as Sheree blitzed the chest of Victoria with a chop as she faced her, the older woman crying out while a symphony of woos reverberated throughout the arena.

"Vicious chop!" JR called out. Another knife-edge chop nearly left Victoria breathless. "And another one!"

The referee tried to get Sheree to calm down, making her glare at him as Victoria attempted to gain her bearings.

"This aggressive side of Sheree has completely surprised Victoria," King said, noticing the faint look of shock on her face. "She didn't expect this at all!"

The fans released a loud 'Ohhh!' as Victoria slapped Sheree across the face the moment she began to face her, making the younger woman stumble back, freezing as her head whipped to the side. "Oh! What a slap! I heard that!"

"Oh brother..." Jenna gulped.

"Victoria with a vicious slap," JR commented as the Californian smirked at Sheree. The younger woman slowly looked back at Victoria with a vicious scowl, the fans reacting with rising anticipation as the Headstrong Diva stared Victoria down with rage-filled blazing blue eyes. "And that has just enraged Sheree!"

"Oh my goodness!" King cried out, the fans cheering as Sheree blasted Victoria in the face with a vicious forearm, and proceeded to assault the older woman with consecutive violent forearms to the face.

"Sheree has lost it, and is now blitzing Victoria in the corner!" JR exclaimed as Victoria sank to the bottom, causing Sheree to ruthlessly stomp away at the woman, the fans cheering even louder at the sight. "Stomping a mudhole and walkin' em dry!"

"Sheree! You gotta calm down!" Jenna yelled out, fearful of the rage Sheree was unleashing.

"You're gonna ruin me huh?!" Sheree snapped, pressing her boot against Victoria's throat, making the older woman kick out her legs desperately as Sheree applied pressure, choking her out in the corner. "You have NO idea who you're messing with!"

"My god! Sheree's choking Victoria!" JR cried out in horror as the referee frantically began the 5 count. "A vicious, damn-near cruel demeanour has come out of Sheree here in Las Vegas!"

"Where did this violent streak come from?!" King exclaimed, shocked as Sheree was forced away by the referee, leaving Victoria gasping for air. "T-This act of ruthlessness from Sheree! It's scary!"

"This has gotta be in response to what Victoria and Beth Phoenix put her through!" Jenna said as Sheree held her hands up, backing away as the referee reprimanded her, the fans booing the official. "They put her through hell, and now Sheree is lookin' to return the favour!"

"That's vindictive..." King commented as the referee went to check on a gasping Victoria, a loud 'Sheree!' chant resounding throughout the Thomas & Mack arena. "Didn't think that would be in Sheree's nature."

"Sheree said she was done lettin' the women's locker room push her around. This has clearly been building deep inside the heart of Sheree, not just for the last couple months, but for the last two years," JR noted. "And as we can see, a very bitter and ruthless mean streak has begun to DEVELOP! GOOD GOD!"

The fans reacted with shock as Sheree suddenly bolted at the seated Victoria and lunged halfway across the ring in a huge leap, forcing the referee to scramble hastily out of the way, the fans releasing a loud 'OHHH!' at the sight of the Bostonian violently smashing her boots into the older woman's face. "DEAR LORD!"

"Oh my god!" King cried out, the fans screaming in shock as Victoria slumped against the bottom turnbuckle in a wide-eyed daze.

"Jesus Christ Sheree!" Jenna exclaimed as the brunette-haired woman rolled backwards onto her feet.

"Sheree with a devastating dropkick!" JR cried out as the Headstrong Diva grabbed Victoria by the leg, pulling her out of the corner and away from the ropes.

"She nearly hit the referee!" King added as Sheree went for a quick pin, hooking the far leg. "Cover here!"

1...

2...

"Victoria kicks out at two," JR noted as the older woman kicked out of Sheree's pin attempt, a glazed look in her eyes. "My god what a dropkick!"

Sheree sat up on her knees with a deep frown as she glared down at Victoria, who rolled out of the ring.

"Watch this again," King said as a replay of Sheree's corner dropkick was shown. "Look at how high Sheree gets before smashing the flat of her boots into Victoria's jaw!"

"Oh wow!" Jenna exclaimed at the referee's close call. "She really did nearly hit the official!"

"Sheree with reckless, violent abandon," JR commented, Sheree having rolled out of the ring, pursuing Victoria with the intention of causing more pain. She grabbed the older woman by the hair, ignoring the referee's warnings as she pulled the two-toned haired woman back up onto her feet. "No regard for her opponent, the official, or even HERSELF!"

"Oh!" King winced, the fans releasing an 'Ohhh!' as Sheree smashed Victoria head-first into the Raw announce table. "Right into our broadcast table!"

Sheree pulled Victoria's head back with an enraged scowl, again, smashing the older woman's skull into the announce table to verbal winces from the crowd.

"Good grief!" JR exclaimed as Sheree proceeded to repeatedly slam Victoria face-first into the announce table with a rage-filled scowl on her face.

"Hey! Watch it Sheree!" King cried out, the fans cheering Sheree's act of viciousness.

"This new found mean streak in Sheree is coming out in full force right in front of us!" JR called out as Sheree slammed Victoria's face into the Raw broadcast table one last time before finally relenting, leaving the Californian on her knees, stunned as she leaned against the announce table.

"And Victoria is feeling the full brunt of it!" Jenna added as her twin released a yell that fired up the Las Vegas crowd.

"This mean streak from Sheree is darn-right scary!" King exclaimed as Sheree rolled back into the ring and quickly rolled back out at a count of 6, breaking the count. She levelled Victoria with a cold stare, watching as the woman leaned heavily against the broadcast table.

Sheree grabbed the ropes, pulling herself back up onto the apron. "From the almost... dark look in her eyes, to this act of ruthless violence..."

Meanwhile Victoria was starting to recover, attempting to stand. "I-I didn't know she had it in her!"

"There is only so much an individual can endure before they've decided enough is enough," JR commented as Sheree looked back at the older woman, preparing for her next attack, watching, waiting for Victoria to make it back up onto her feet.

As Victoria made it to a knee, Sheree turned her back and signalled to the crowd, making them cheer in response.

"Wait a minute..." King trailed off, on high alert as he began to work out Sheree's intentions.

"Oh no," Jenna gulped nervously as Victoria pulled herself back up onto her feet, using the announce table to keep herself steady. "We may need to get outta the way..."

"We saw this at the Royal Rumble," JR noted as Victoria began to turn around. "Sheree is out to destroy VICTORIA!"

The moment Victoria turned fully around, Sheree leaped up, launching herself backwards off the middle ropes to awed cries from the fans, backflipping through the air.

"OH LORD! MY GOSH!" The fans released a horrified 'OHHH!' as Victoria hastily moved to the right, causing Sheree to go crashing ribs first onto the announce table!

"Oh! Oh no!" King yelped, wincing at the sickening impact of Sheree slamming into the announce table.

"Oh my gosh," Jenna cried out in horror as Sheree collapsed off the announce table, writhing in pain with her arms wrapped around her stomach.

"Is she alright?!" King questioned with worry.

"Sheree crashed and burned!" JR exclaimed as Victoria laid on the floor, laughing as she watched Sheree squirm and cry out in pain. "And Victoria is loving it!"

"Sheree went for a springboard moonsault," Jenna noted, her tone exposing her worry as replays were shown. "But Victoria moved out of the way, causing Sheree to crash into our announce table!"

The replay ended to reveal Victoria now on her feet, looming dangerously over Sheree with a terrifying smirk on her face, a small hush having fallen over the crowd. "I hope Sheree's okay... that was a nasty landing."

"It was, and it's about to get worse," King added with a touch of nervousness as Victoria grabbed a fist full of Sheree's hair, roughly pulling the brunette back up onto her feet, wrapping her powerful arm around the Bostonian's head. "Cuz I guarantee Victoria is gonna make Sheree pay for that earlier flurry- OH GOD!"

The crowd verbally winced as Victoria draped Sheree's arm over her shoulder, stamping her feet and dropping low, launching herself backwards and slamming Sheree into the padded floor with a painful snap suplex.

"Jeez..." Jenna groaned as Sheree arched her back off the floor, grimacing in pain.

"Snap suplex on the floor," JR said as Victoria sat up with a dark smile. "That's gonna knock the wind out of Sheree."

"As if she ain't already finding it hard to breathe after crashing onto our announce table," King commented as Victoria rose to her feet, pulling the brunette up to a vertical base and rolling her back into the ring.

"Count broken up at six there," JR noted as Victoria pulled herself up onto the apron.

"Oh no..." Jenna gulped as Victoria eyed Sheree's supine state with a sick grin, her grip tightening around the top ropes. "Sheree move!"

"Sheree doesn't wanna be THERE!" JR cried out as with incredible agility, Victoria slingshot herself over the ropes in a somersault, the crowd releasing a loud 'OHHH!' as the older woman brought her powerful, heavily braced right leg down across Sheree's throat. "Good grief! Slingshot leg drop across the throat!"

"Jesus Christ!" Jenna groaned as Sheree's body went limp and lifeless.

"That's just gonna make Sheree's breathing problem even worse," King added as Victoria stared down at the Bostonian, giggling at the woman's half-conscious state "And look it! She's laughing!"

"Aww did that hurt brat?" Victoria cooed mockingly as she roughly tugged on Sheree's hair. "Are you finding it hard to breathe, huh brat?!"

"Victoria is a sick and vile woman," JR commented with an air of disgust as the Californian pulled her leg off Sheree and went for the cover, hooking the far leg. "Lateral press..."

1...

2...

Sheree kicked out immediately after the two count, favouring her throat, gasping for breath. "And a strong kick out from Sheree, but she is in big, big trouble right now."

"Yeah she's in a bad spot right now," King said as Victoria wrapped her powerful arms around Sheree's waist, locking her hands together and squeezing tightly. "That crash onto our announce table, along with that leg drop, really caused some serious damage."

"Sheree's gonna need to fight through the pain if she hopes to win," JR advised as the Bostonian groaned in pain, Victoria applying the pressure, her grip around the brunette's abdomen getting tighter and tighter with each passing second. The veteran rolled Sheree away from the ropes when she tried to reach for them, making the Boston brunette cry out in anguish as Victoria's grip got even tighter. "But Victoria isn't about to let that happen, rolling Sheree away from the ropes."

"Smart," Jenna commended begrudgingly.

"Victoria has been very blunt about her opinion of Sheree," JR noted as Sheree attempted to fight out of her current predicament, slamming her fist against the mat repeatedly, starting off a chain reaction that caused the fans to clap. "Doesn't believe Sheree belongs at WrestleMania. Doesn't believe she has what it takes."

"Sheree's performance says otherwise," Jenna retorted.

"You do have to admit though Jenna, that luck has been on Sheree's side," King commented. "I'm surprised she's gotten this far."

"Sheree has pinned Victoria twice, beat Beth Phoenix, beat Mickie James all within the last two months," Jenna said as Sheree scowled, the fans' clapping increasing in tempo. The Headstrong Diva rose to a knee, causing Victoria's grip to tighten in an attempt to halt the brunette's recovery, shaking her head franticly as Sheree slowly began to rise to her feet. "At what point do we stop being surprised by Sheree's recent string of success?"

"I can't answer that," King replied truthfully as the fans began to applaud Sheree's effort.

"Sheree trying to fight through this predicament," JR noted as the young woman tried to pry Victoria's fingers apart, only for the Californian to lift Sheree off the mat, slamming her back down into the canvas, reapplying her tight grip on the Headstrong Diva and squeezing even tighter than before, making the fans groan. "And Victoria, with incredible power, slamming Sheree back down to the mat."

"Victoria with a bullseye on Sheree's ribs," Jenna noted as Sheree cried out in anguish, her ribs screaming at her as Victoria violently wrapped her strong arms around the brunette's stomach.

"Sheree might be injured here. She might have a cracked rib," King added as Victoria shook her head with a smirk. "You don't hit the announce table that hard and not get injured."

"Nah... you're not getting away from me that easily dollface!" the older woman yelled in Sheree's ear.

"Victoria has effectively grounded Sheree to the mat," JR said as the fans began to chant 'Lets go Sheree! Lets go Sheree! Lets go Sheree!' fuelling the brunette's determination. "Victoria's got that waist lock in deep, wrapping around Sheree's midsection like an anaconda."

"Yeah, it's clear what her game plan is," Jenna added. "Target Sheree's ribs, and cause as much pain and punishment as possible."

"Victoria wants to squeeze the will out of Sheree. She wants to break her down physically and mentally, crush her spirit and torture her relentlessly," JR stated, the fans' chanting getting louder as Sheree struggled to push herself up off the mat, with all of Victoria's weight pressing down on her back.

"Dark..." Jenna muttered with a shiver.

"She's already squeezed that mean streak out of Sheree," King added. "I'd hate to see what else Victoria squeezes out of her."

"The mind of Victoria is sick. It's evil and twisted," JR said as Sheree pulled herself up onto a knee, a scowl of defiance on her face. "But Sheree will not bow to Victoria's will so easily."

The fans began to cheer as Sheree powered herself up onto her feet, actively fighting against Victoria's power.

"Look at this!" King exclaimed with a smile, the fans cheering as Sheree began to fight back with back elbows to the face of Victoria.

"Sheree fighting back!" JR added.

"She's in survival mode. That's a bad thing for Victoria!" Jenna stated as a sharp elbow caught the older woman in the temple, rocking Victoria hard enough to release her death-like grip around Sheree's ribs. "Oh!"

"That last shot caught Victoria in the temple," JR said as Sheree took off in a run, only for Victoria to reach out and grab her brunette locks, slamming the back of her skull into the mat, making the fans groan and boo. "Oh! And Victoria stops any chance of Sheree bouncing back."

"Dammit," Jenna growled as Victoria stumbled slightly, favouring her temple with an annoyed scowl, ignoring the official's warning about grabbing the hair.

"Sheree hit the mat hard there," King added, wincing.

The fans booed as the older woman pounced on Sheree with furious abandon, rapidly stomping away at her. "Oh boy! I think those elbows did nothing but tick Victoria off!"

"And she's gonna take it out on Sheree," JR said as the older woman quickly crouched to one knee, assaulting Sheree with vicious rapid right hands to the face, forcing the younger woman to cover up. "Victoria's putting a hurting on Sheree-Louise in a rage-filled frenzy!"

"She's gonna give Sheree another black eye if she keeps that up!" Jenna yelped fearfully.

"Victoria doesn't care. She would love that," King replied as the older woman finally relented, rising to her feet and glaring at the fans, who booed harshly, angered by Victoria's vicious display.

"We all know Victoria got some kind of sick thrill from giving Sheree that black eye," JR added. "No doubt in my mind that she would love to do that again."

Victoria stared down at Sheree, a twisted smirk on her face. It widened dangerously as she pressed her boot against Sheree's throat, the fans booing at the sight.

"Hey, hey!" King yelped as Sheree kicked her legs out franticly. "She's standing on her throat!"

"Just sickening!" Jenna spat.

The referee forced Victoria away from the Headstrong Diva, leaving the young woman in a choking mess, giving Victoria a firm warning.

"The referee had no choice but to step in there," JR said as Victoria smirked in the referee's face, before calmly advancing towards the younger woman, methodically pulling her back up onto her feet by her hair. "Victoria has been as ruthless as ever throughout this match."

Victoria lifted Sheree up off the ground horizontally and dropped to a knee, the crowd verbally wincing at Sheree's cries of pain as her back was viciously driven down onto the Vixen's knee. "Victoria's plan of attack has been very clear."

"Oh jeez," King winced as Sheree was bent awkwardly back over Victoria's knee, the older woman pushing against the brunette's chin and knee. "The body ain't supposed to bend that way!"

"Victoria targeting the back and ribs of Sheree," JR added, the two-tone haired Vixen smiling evilly as Sheree cried out in pain.

"Does that hurt?" Victoria questioned mockingly, violently pushing down harder, making Sheree cry out in agony. "Aww poor baby~"

The hand that was pushing against Sheree's chin sneakily brushed upwards, until Victoria's fingers slowly began to wrap around Sheree's throat, a crazed smile appearing on the older woman's face as her grip gradually began to tighten, making Sheree gasp and choke, her eyes wide.

"Hey! Hey!" King exclaimed, sighing in relief when the referee reprimanded the Californian. "Thank god for the referee!"

"Again to the throat. Victoria with wicked, vile intentions," JR added as Victoria pressed down on Sheree's chin, making her cry out. "Thank god for the referee indeed, but Sheree is still in dire straits."

"She's playing dirty," Jenna growled, not liking Victoria's actions one bit.

"Ask her!" Victoria snapped at the official as a 'Lets go Sheree!' chant broke out throughout the arena.

"Do you wanna give up Sheree?"

"NO!" Sheree cried out, her back and abdomen screaming in agony as Victoria intensified the pressure, a scowl of annoyance on her face as the fans' chanting increased in volume.

"Shut up!" the older woman snapped, making them boo in response.

"Sheree refuses to quit, but I don't know how long she can last," JR wondered.

"We know Sheree can handle pain, but how long can she endure it?" King questioned.

"They can't help you!" Victoria snapped at Sheree, pressing down even more on Sheree's chin and knee, smiling darkly as the brunette continued to cry out in pain. "Give up! They can't help yo-"

The fans cheered as Sheree defiantly brought her other knee up, catching Victoria in the side of her face. "Oh!"

"Sheree fighting back!" JR noted as another knee connected with the vixen's face, making her scowl in annoyance. "Trying to fight out of Victoria's grip!"

"Whoa look at this!" King cried out, the fans' cheers picking up as Sheree fired off a round of desperate left fists to Victoria's face.

"Sheree fighting with all she's got!" JR added.

"Keep it up Sheree!" Jenna cheered as Victoria began to lose her balance. "Keep fighting!"

Like a light being snuffed out, the fans groaned as Victoria clubbed Sheree harshly in the abdomen in retaliation, making the younger woman groan in agony. "Oh no!"

"And a clubbing shot to the ribs puts a stop to that!" JR cried out as Sheree groaned in pain, releasing a harsh cough as she leaned heavily on Victoria's knee.

"That was smart," King complimented as Victoria wrapped her strong arms around Sheree and stood, lifting the Bostonian into a sidewalk slam hold with a scowl. "And this is gonna hurt!"

Sheree suddenly lifted her legs up, surprising Victoria by wrapping her strong legs around the older woman's head.

"Wait a minute!" JR exclaimed, the fans cheering loudly as Victoria released her grip on Sheree out of surprise, allowing the Bostonian to send the woman flying off her feet with a hurricanrana.

"Oh my gosh!" Jenna cried out.

"Wow!" King exclaimed in shock as Victoria slammed back first into the canvas, wincing in pain.

"Sheree with incredible flexibility, agility and leg strength!" JR praised as Sheree gingerly pulled herself back up onto her feet with a grimace of pain, favouring her ribs.

The Boston brunette turned and immediately ducked as Victoria came at her with a wild swing of rage.

"Whoa!" King exclaimed, the fans gasping at the sight, and then releasing a loud 'OHHH!' as Sheree pivoted on the balls of her left foot, blasting Victoria in the face with a spin kick. "Oh god!"

"Dear me!" Jenna gasped as Victoria hit the canvas.

"What a shot!" JR cried out as Sheree stumbled slightly, trying to catch her balance. "What a lethal spin kick!"

"Sheree caught her right in the side of her face!" King added as Victoria rolled out of the ring by the entryway, favouring her right cheek.

"Sheree caught Victoria flush in the face with that spin kick. Victoria forced to get out of dodge," JR commented as Sheree bolted towards the southwest corner. "OH MY GOD!"

"WHOA!" King exclaimed as Sheree leaped up onto the middle rope, using them as a launcher to catapult herself to the right, the crowd crying out as the Bostonian soared through the air and over the ropes, crashing down onto a shocked Victoria.

"Oh wow!" Jenna gasped in awe.

"Triangle Plancha!" JR cried out as Sheree rolled off the supine and dazed state of Victoria, a cold scowl on her face. "What innovative offence!"

"I gotta see that again!" King exclaimed as replays were shown of the springboard manoeuvre. "Wow!"

"Sheree with a triangle plancha," JR noted as Sheree rose to her feet, grabbing Victoria by the hair and pulling the woman back up onto her feet, grimacing in agitation as her injured abdomen flared up with pain at the effort and strain. "Now Victoria's in trouble."

"Yeah, but it's clear Sheree's ribs are still bothering her," Jenna said, noticing the way Sheree favoured her stomach.

The brunette Bostonian rolled Victoria back into the ring, pulling herself up onto the apron, beginning to scale the corner ropes as Victoria stumbled to her feet.

"Oh brother... Sheree going up high again," King noted apprehensively as Sheree placed her right boot on the top ropes, pausing momentarily to wince at the unbearable strain she put on her throbbing ribs. "I don't think this is a good idea Sheree!"

"Sheree climbing the ropes. I don't think Victoria is aware of the impending danger," JR commented.

"Yeah that spin kick really-" Jenna was cut off by the sight of Victoria stumbling into the corner as Sheree pulled herself up fully onto the top ropes, the fans gasping as the older woman nearly knocked the brunette off the ropes with a vicious right hand straight to the ribs. "Oh!"

"And Victoria intervenes that time," JR noted as Sheree gasped in pain. "A desperate shot to the gut of Sheree Louise!"

"Sheree hesitated on the top ropes as she was climbing," King said as Victoria grabbed Sheree by her brunette locks, snarling in the woman's face. "And that gave Victoria enough time to stop her."

The crowd gasped in awe as Victoria lifted Sheree off the ropes and held her high over her head. "Uh-oh!"

"The strength of Victoria!" JR exclaimed as the older woman stepped away from the corner, all while Sheree was suspended high above her head. "Sheree is in a bad POSITION!"

"Oh! Oh god!" Jenna cried out in worry as Victoria dropped Sheree directly in front of her, the crowd releasing a loud 'Ohhh!' as Victoria dropped to a knee, causing the Bostonian to plummet down ribs first onto the short-haired woman's knee with tremendous velocity.

"Good god!" JR exclaimed as Sheree writhed in agony, her arms wrapped tightly around her stomach. "Gorilla Press Gutbuster!"

"Man..." King shook his head as Victoria stared down at the writhing woman with a dark smirk. "That's it."

"Victoria absolutely punishing Sheree," JR added as the older woman calmly went for the pin, hooking the far leg. "Cover."

1...

2...

Sheree kicked out just after the two count, crying out in pain and rolling onto her side, her arms wrapped around her stomach as the fans verbally sighed with relief. "And a kick out at two. Sheree's still in this."

"Yeah but the damage has been done," King noted, worried as Victoria sat on her knees, smirking as Sheree panted in pain, wheezing slightly. "It hurt Sheree to even kick out! That's how much pain she's in right now!"

"And the more this match favours Victoria, the more pain Sheree will have to endure to win THIS!" Jenna suddenly exclaimed, the fans wincing as Victoria violently drove her knee into the small of Sheree's back, making the brunette scream in pain. "Jeez!"

"Oh, oh!" King winced.

"A vicious shot to the back," JR said as Victoria rose to her feet, Sheree rolling back into a supine state, cringing in agony. The brunette released a wheezy grunt of pain when the older woman viciously stomped down and grinded her boot into the Bostonian's abdomen. "And now viciously stomping and grinding her boot into Sheree's ribs!"

"That's just nasty..." Jenna muttered with distaste as Victoria smirked down at the pain on Sheree's face.

"I'm gonna take everything from you!" Victoria growled leaning over as her smirk widened dangerously. "Everything!"

Sheree swung wildly at Victoria in response, but Victoria leaned back and out of reach, a scowl of irritation replacing the vile smirk on her face.

"Oh!" King winced, the fans releasing a sharp 'Ohhh!' as Victoria retaliated with a stern smack across the face of Sheree, making her eyes water, a red hand print beginning to form on her cheek. "Damn. Victoria showing Sheree no remorse."

"Victoria with a blatant show of disrespect," JR commented. Victoria lifted her boot and stomped down on Sheree's midsection, making her groan loudly, the wind being driven out of her as the fans cringed at the sight. "And that may have just cracked another rib!"

"Victoria trying to make sure Sheree doesn't make it to Mania at any means necessary," Jenna noted with an edge of disgust in her voice, as Victoria relented and stepped away from Sheree's writhing form to gloat at the fans. "If Victoria doesn't win here tonight, she'll just injure Sheree to the point she can't even compete!"

"This is why I should be competing at Mania! Not her!" Victoria roared at the fans, a chilling snarky laugh escaping past her lips when they booed in response. She pointed at Sheree's hunched over coughing form, a large smirk on her face. "Look at her! She's pathetic!"

"Victoria mocking the fans," JR noted as Sheree grabbed the nearby ropes. "Referring to Sheree as pathetic."

"See this is the problem. This refusal to take Sheree seriously," King said as Victoria turned her attention back to the Headstrong Diva, advancing towards her. "Has she forgotten that Sheree has pinned her twice?"

"In Victoria's mind those wins were fluke victories," Jenna retorted icily as Victoria grabbed a hand full of Sheree's hair, ignoring the referee's stern scolding as she pulled the brunette back up onto her feet.

"Victoria truly believes that Sheree has gotten lucky," JR said as Victoria whipped Sheree towards the opposite ropes, only Sheree reversed this, whipping Victoria towards the ropes instead. "And looks to vanquish that luck once and for ALL!"

As Victoria rebounded off the ropes, she caught the incoming brunette in a wheelbarrow hold, only Sheree rolled her up and all the way through, springing up to violently stomp through the midsection of Victoria.

"Oh!" King exclaimed, the crowd releasing a loud and shocked 'OHHH!' at the violent double stomp.

"Good grief!" JR added as Sheree fell to her knees, Victoria squirming in agony, favouring her stomach. "Sheree just stomped the hell out of Victoria!"

"Sheree gave Victoria a taste of her own medicine in the form of a violent stomp!" Jenna cheered as Victoria rolled onto her knees, her arms wrapped around her stomach as she raised her head up.

"Victoria got too comfortable!" King added. Sheree stood with a grimace, an arm favouring her stomach as she glared at Victoria. "She- OH MY GOSH!"

The Las Vegas crowd released a loud 'OHHH!' as Sheree superkicked Victoria in the face.

"Sabretooth Superkick!" JR yelled out as the kick left Victoria in a daze. "Caught Victoria right in the side of her jaw! Victoria's stunned!"

"Oh man!" King winced as the older woman began to fall forward.

The fans gasped as Sheree grabbed a hand full of Victoria's two-tone locks, catching the older woman before she could face-plant the mat. A dark look of seething rage appeared on Sheree's face, completely blanking out the official's demand to let go of Victoria's hair. "Whoa... hold on a minute!"

"Oh no! The look in Sheree's eyes just changed!" Jenna noted with worry as her twin pulled the semi conscious woman up by her hair, scowling.

"Victoria is at the mercy of Sheree LOUISE!" JR cringed, the loud Vegas crowd releasing a loud 'OHHH!' as Sheree absolutely rocked Victoria with another superkick. "Another devastating superkick!"

Sheree didn't even let Victoria fall before blasting her in the face with a third superkick, taking the older woman off her knees, the large crowd verbally cringing at the sight. "And another! Good grief!"

"WHO'S PATHETIC NOW?!" Sheree roared out to the crowd, making them cheer loudly in response.

"Wow..." King gasped at the sight of Victoria laid out in the ring, her eyes wide in a daze.

The Boston brunette advanced towards the older woman with a scowl, grabbing two fists full of Victoria's black and red locks despite the referee's firm scolding.

"Wait a minute..." JR noted, on high alert as Sheree slowly pulled the crazed Californian up by her short hair. "Sheree opting not to go for the cover here..."

"This is crazy Sheree!" King cried out. "You've kicked her in the face three times already! Pin her!"

"Sheree wants to pay Victoria back for all the crap she has put her through for the last two months," Jenna added as Sheree finally pulled the older woman to her feet.

The crowd buzzed with anticipation as Sheree pulled the older woman into a powerbomb position, a scowl on her face. "Whoa now Sheree..."

"Hold on now..." JR commented with urgent attention as Sheree wrapped her arms around Victoria's waist.

"She's not gonna try this is she?!" King questioned incredulously, the fans crying out as Sheree attempted to lift Victoria, the older woman's right leg flailing. "Whoa! I don't know about this!"

"Sheree perhaps attempting a powerbomb on Victoria," JR said as Sheree growled through her teeth in an attempt to lift Victoria again, the two-tone haired woman kicking out her legs desperately.

The Headstrong Diva tried to heave Victoria off the mat one more time, and released a cry of pain as the stress and strain she was putting on her injuries became too much for her to handle. "And the back gave out!"

"Oh no!" Jenna exclaimed as Sheree released Victoria, nearly cursing as she stumbled back, favouring her back and her ribs.

"That knee to the back really effected Sheree in a big way," King said as the woman limped back towards the recovering veteran. "And with her ribs also bothering her, I- Whoa!"

The large crowd cried out when Victoria sprang up, lifting the caught off guard Sheree up onto her shoulders. "Oh no!"

"Victoria's got Sheree up on her shoulders!" JR exclaimed as Victoria released a roar, turning as she snarled at the hard camera with a look of complete savagery. "Victoria looking for the Spider's Web!"

"Oh my god!" Jenna cried out in fear as Victoria swung Sheree off her shoulders. "OH MY GOD!"

"Spider's Web!" JR yelled as Victoria spun the Boston native into a sidewalk slam, dropping Sheree back first into the canvas, the crowd releasing a loud 'OHHH!' at the impact. "Spider's Web! Victoria just hit the Spider's Web!"

"That ain't good!" King exclaimed worriedly as Sheree writhed and yelled out in pain. "Oh man... she is hurt."

"Back press!" JR called out, the fans yelling with bubbling worry as Victoria hooked both of Sheree's legs. "The shoulders are down!"

1...

"Victoria looking to ruin Sheree's chances of making it to WrestleMania!"

2...

The crowd cheered as with a pained yell, Sheree kicked out just before the three count. "NO! Sheree kicked out!"

"What?!" King exclaimed.

"Thank goodness!" Jenna breathed out as Victoria stared at the referee with wide eyes of pure rage and shock, a dark scowl on her face.

"COUNT AGAIN!" Victoria snapped, hooking the legs again.

"Another cover!" JR called out.

1...

2...

"And Sheree kicks out again!" Victoria yelled in anger, hooking the legs again, leaning back even more with a scowl. "And Victoria goes for another, more deeper cover!"

1...

2...

Sheree powered out with an emphatic "NO!" making Victoria scream in absolute outrage. "And again Sheree kicks out!"

"She won't quit!" King cried out with surprise, the fans cheering loudly.

"Sheree knows what's at stake in this match. She can't quit," Jenna replied, making a sound of disgust as Victoria turned on Sheree and waylaid the younger woman with wild fists. "Good grief... pull yourself together woman!"

"Victoria's fallen into a rage here in Las Vegas!" JR commented, the fans beginning to boo as the older woman released screams of rage, continuing to viciously brutalize the Headstrong Diva to the point she had to curl into a ball in order to protect herself.

"She's lost complete control JR!" King exclaimed as Victoria rose, quickly and violently kicking Sheree in the back hard enough to make her cry out, arching her back in agony. "Oof! Did you hear that thud? Good grief!"

Victoria stared out into the crowd, her scowl intensifying as their boos got louder.

"Victoria has been absolutely ferocious and brutalizing," JR said as the older woman froze, catching sight of the WrestleMania sign. Her chest heaved heavily with anger, her eyes blazing with frustration and rage as she glared at the sign with a faint look of desperation.

"Oh boy..." Jenna gulped, catching the look on Victoria's face.

She quickly grabbed the Boston native by her brunette locks, completely ignoring the referee as she violently ragged Sheree up onto her feet, throwing the younger woman out onto the apron by the entryway.

"Sheree being thrown out onto the apron here," JR said.

As Sheree was using the ropes to try and pull herself up onto her feet, Victoria stepped through the ropes and onto the apron along with the Bostonian, a frightening look of maliciousness on her face as she grabbed the brunette locks of Sheree Louise.

"This looks dangerous," King noted with apprehension as Victoria pulled Sheree up by her shoulder-length hair.

"I saw the look in Victoria's eyes," Jenna commented fearfully as Victoria gripped Sheree's hair with enough aggression to make her wince, snarling in the Bostonian's face. "It's as if she fell into a terrifying zone as soon as she caught sight of the WrestleMania sign!"

"I'm gonna destroy you..." the Californian growled icily, her voice shaky with barely held back insanity, her eyes wide with pure rage. "Do you hear me brat? You are done!"

"I-I think you're right Jenna," King added with a gulp as Victoria violently shook Sheree by her hair. "She's a step away from losing it!"

Sheree suddenly knocked the older woman's hands away from her hair, the fans crying out as she planted her right boot to the chest of Victoria with enough force to send her back into the metal ring post, the fans releasing a loud 'Ohhh!' cringing at the impact. "Oh my god!"

"My god what a kick!" JR exclaimed as Victoria winced in visible pain, arching her back. "Victoria hit the ring post back first- GOOD LORD!"

The large crowd of Las Vegas fans let loose a massive 'OHHH!' as Victoria stumbled forward and right into a vicious roundhouse kick, a resounding crack reverberating throughout the arena. "My god!"

"Oh heavens!" Jenna groaned as Victoria crumbled off the apron. "Goodness me what a kick! Good god!"

"Nearly kicked the crazy outta Victoria," King added as Victoria stumbled in a complete daze, struggling to stay on her feet. "She's seeing stars!"

"Sheree caught Victoria flush in the face with that devastating kick," JR said as Sheree made her way across the apron and towards the steel steps, while Victoria attempted to regain her bearings. The large audience buzzed with anticipation as Sheree began to climb up the turnbuckle. "And this is risky."

"Oh boy..." Jenna muttered with worry as her twin scaled up onto the middle turnbuckle as Victoria unknowingly stumbled within Sheree's range.

"We've seen this BEFORE WHOA!" King exclaimed, the large crowd crying out with awe as Sheree launched herself backwards off the middle turnbuckle, arching through the air.

"Moonsault!" JR cried out as Sheree crashed down onto Victoria, the two women crashing to the floor. "An incredible moonsault off the turnbuckle, taking Victoria out!"

"What a thing of beauty!" Jenna praised as replays were shown.

"There's the first kick," JR noted. "Right to the heart of Victoria that sent her into the ring post. And then the second kick, a brutal roundhouse kick to the temple."

"Goodness!" King cringed as the action returned to reveal Sheree stumbling to her feet, grabbing Victoria by her short hair and pulling the older woman back up onto her feet.

Sheree tiredly rolled Victoria back into the ring at a count of five, taking a moment to catch her breath.

"These women are completely spent," JR noted as Sheree pulled herself up onto the apron. Victoria was starting to recover, pushing her body off the canvas. "They've been at each others throats for the past two months and- Oh! Oh my god!"

The large crowd gasped in worry as Victoria kicked out Sheree's legs, causing the younger woman to face-plant the apron, an audible 'Ohhh!' resounding throughout the arena.

"Oh my god..." Jenna mumbled in shock and horror, her eyes wide.

"Victoria just kicked Sheree's legs out from under her!" JR exclaimed, the crowd falling deadly silent as Sheree laid still on the floor, the referee leaving the ring to check on her. "And Sheree hit the apron face-first. That's the hardest part of the ring ladies and gentlemen."

"Sheree might have a broken nose," King groaned as Victoria sat up with a scowl on her face, favouring her temple. "That was a horrible landing."

The older woman rolled out of the ring, her rage only getting even more worse as she speed-walked towards Sheree's still form. "Oh no..."

"GET OUTTA THE WAY!" Victoria roared at the referee, the crowd booing as Victoria ragged Sheree up onto her feet by her hair.

"Victoria has had enough," JR said. "Her whole demeanour just FLIPPED!"

A loud and horrified 'OOOH!' resounded throughout the arena as the Californian sent Sheree hurdling violently into the left steel security barrier that separated the fans from the rampway. "Good god!"

"Oh my god..." Jenna breathed out in complete and utter shock.

"Jesus Christ!" King groaned as Sheree laid lifeless on her side.

"Victoria sending Sheree careening into the guardrail!" JR growled as Victoria turned her attention towards the referee, her eyes wild with anger as she blocked his view of Sheree. "The impact... the sickening sound of Sheree hitting the black steel of that guardrail... my god!"

"She won't even let the referee check on Sheree!" King added, horrified as the woman practically bullied the official away from the Bostonian's still form.

"What a heartless woman!" Jenna spat in disgust.

"Get back in the ring," the Californian demanded icily, cutting off any scolding words the official had for her. "NOW!"

"Damn... she ain't playing around anymore," King added as the referee reluctantly got back into the ring.

"Victoria demanding the referee to get back in the ring," JR noted as Victoria looked up at the WrestleMania sign, her eyes dark with desperate rage. "Look at the almost remorseless gaze of Victoria."

"It's almost like she's in a trance," Jenna added.

"I'd start fearing for Sheree's wellbeing right about now," King said, gulping at the look on her face. "Cuz Victoria is slowly starting to enter an unhinged zone."

Victoria grabbed a fist full of Sheree's locks, pulling the near lifeless body of the Headstrong Diva to her feet, her arms hanging lifelessly. "Sheree is just lifeless right now..."

"What is that mad woman up to now?" JR questioned with apprehension as to everyone's further confusion and worry, the wrathful Californian dragged Sheree a tiny bit further up the aisle.

"I don't like where this is heading..." Jenna muttered. Alarm bells rang throughout the announcers, the referee and the audience's mind as Victoria pulled Sheree into a powerbomb position. "Oh no!"

"Oh my gosh..." King shook his head with despair, Victoria snarling in rage as the referee scrambled out of the ring to dissuade the older woman, fans crying out. "Is Victoria looking for a powerbomb?!"

"Is there anything this woman won't do to hurt Sheree?" JR questioned with disgust.

"This won't just hurt Sheree! This may end her career!" King shrieked. The referee tried to dissuade Victoria, but the older woman shook her head with an enraged snarl, lifting Sheree up onto her shoulders to a massive outcry of horrified cries from the audience. "Oh my god Victoria no! Stop!"

"NO!" Jenna cried out in horror.

"NO! MY GOD NO!" JR exclaimed, a massive outcry of 'OHHH!' resounding throughout the arena as Victoria ruthlessly and remorselessly powerbombed Sheree backfirst onto the hard metal rampway, a sickening crack reverberating throughout the Thomas & Mack Arena at the impact of Sheree's back crashing against the rampway.

The whole crowd fell into explosive shock as Victoria roared down at Sheree's lifeless body, her eyes wide with rage and insanity, looming over the brunette.

"Oh my god..." Jenna muttered.

"Sheree is completely lifeless!" JR spat in anger. "God damn this woman!"

"I hate her..." Jenna whispered, her voice shaky as the referee tried to get Victoria to move away so he could check on Sheree. "I hate her..."

"Sheree has not moved at all..." King added as Victoria stood over Sheree's seemingly unconscious body, a dark smile starting to stretch across her face as she admired her work. "Is Sheree even breathing at all right now?!"

"I-I don't know if I can answer that..." Jenna said quietly, her face going slightly pale.

Victoria finally stepped away from Sheree, but grabbed the referee by the collar, dragging him back towards the ring before he could properly check on the Headstrong Diva.

"And Victoria again not letting the official check on Sheree," JR noted as the Californian let go of the referee and rolled back into the ring, demanding the man to get into the squared circle and count.

She glowered at him when he hesitated. "GET IN THIS RING NOW AND COUNT HER OUT!"

The fans booed at this, Victoria grinning evilly as the man shook his head, but reluctantly re-entered the ring.

"Victoria imploring the referee to get in the ring and start the ten count."

"Seriously?!" Jenna exclaimed in disgust.

"Count!" the two-tone haired woman snapped, pointing a threatening finger at the official when he hesitatingly stared at her. The man shook his head before starting the 10 count, the fans boos intensifying as Victoria gloated at them with a grin.

ONE!

"Are you kidding me Victoria?!" Jenna spat as Victoria turned her back to the ramp, laughing as she continued to gloat.

TWO!

"You're really gonna take a count out victory?!" Victoria mocked Sheree's black-haired twin with the cry-baby gesture.

THREE!

"Victoria feeling proud of herself," JR stated with disgust, not noticing the Headstrong Diva starting to stir.

FOUR!

"She's about to steal Sheree's WrestleMania!" Victoria laughed as the fans continued to boo her, revelling in their anger, unaware of Sheree slowly and gingerly rolling off her back.

FIVE!

"Wait a minute!" King exclaimed as Sheree began to slowly claw her way down the ramp, dragging her body across the hard steel. She had one goal in mind; Get in the ring before the count of ten.

SIX!

"Sheree's moving!"

"Oh my god!" Jenna gasped.

SEVEN!

The fans began to notice and started to scream and shout, calling out to Sheree to hurry, encouraging the young woman to keep going.

"Sheree clawing and dragging her body across the floor with everything she's got!" JR exclaimed.

"How is she doing this?!" King questioned in shock as Sheree's movements got more frantic, trying to lift her body off the floor whilst still crawling across it.

EIGHT!

"We're at a count of eight now!" JR exclaimed, the fans cheering and screaming as Sheree battled through the pain and pushed her body up off the floor.

"Come on Sheree!" Jenna cheered.

NINE!

"She's not gonna make it!" King cried out in despair as Sheree stumbled to her feet.

T-

The entire arena exploded into a massive pop as Sheree leaped into the ring, just before the official could raise his hands for the final ten count, making Victoria snap her head back with a look of complete and utter shock, staring at Sheree with stunned wide eyes.

"SHE MADE IT!" JR exclaimed, the fans screaming and cheering.

"WHAT?!" King cried out.

"YES!" Jenna cheered.

"HOW DID SHE DO THAT?!" King exclaimed, shocked.

"SHEREE MADE IT!" JR yelled out as Sheree laid prone in the ring, panting in exhaustion. "SHEREE MADE IT TO THE RING BEFORE THE FINAL TEN COUNT!"

"My god that was close!" King added. "Victoria is stunned! She can't believe it! Neither can I!"

Victoria's shocked expression slowly morphed into seething rage.

"But did Sheree just make things worse?!" JR questioned as Victoria thundered towards the brunette, grabbing fists full of her shoulder-length hair and ragging the younger woman up to her feet.

The Californian lifted Sheree up onto her right shoulder, the fans in attendance buzzing with excitement. "She's going for the Widow's Peak!"

"Oh no!" Jenna cried out.

"Widow's Peak is looming!" JR called out, the fans screaming as Sheree kicked her legs out in a desperate attempt to avoid the Widow's Peak, frustrating Victoria as she tried to hook Sheree's head against her shoulder. "But Sheree is desperately trying to avoid it!"

"Whoa look at this!" King exclaimed as Sheree planted her feet onto the canvas, reaching back and pulling Victoria's head across her right shoulder.

The Las Vegas crowd released a loud 'OHHH!' as Sheree dropped into a sitout, violently and desperately snapping the back of Victoria's neck off her shoulder. "OH!"

"Oh my gosh!" Jenna cried out.

"Rude Awakening-like neckbreaker!" JR exclaimed as Sheree sat on the canvas, panting in exhaustion whilst Victoria writhed in pain behind her, grasping at the back of her neck.

The referee checked to see if Sheree was still okay to compete after the beating she had withstood, getting a tired nod from the Bostonian in response. "Sheree countered the Widow's Peak with a neckbreaker!"

"I don't think I've ever seen anybody counter the Widow's Peak like that!" King added as Sheree gingerly rose to her feet, pulling Victoria up by her short hair.

"These women are absolutely exhausted right now," JR said as Sheree backed Victoria into the ropes, using them to catapult the older woman forwards and towards the opposite side of the ring. "They've given it everything they've GOT!"

"Oh my gosh!" King cried out, the fans releasing a loud 'Ohhh!' at the sight of Sheree leaving her feet, catching Victoria flush in the face with an explosive dropkick as she rebounded off the ropes.

"My god!" Jenna exclaimed, wincing at the way Victoria landed on the back of her shoulders.

"Good lord what a dropkick!" JR added.

"Oh my god!" Jenna exclaimed with wide eyes, the fans crying out in shock at the sight of Victoria rolling backwards onto her feet, eyes wide in pure rage. "OH MY GOD!"

"Victoria's back on her feet!" JR cried out.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" King yelled out, shocked. The fans released a loud 'OHHH!' as Victoria blasted Sheree in the face with a superkick, making Sheree crumble to the canvas in a daze. "Oh!"

"And Victoria connects with a superkick!" JR exclaimed as the older woman fell to her knees.

"What a match!" Jenna praised as Victoria looked around, slightly surprised to hear the fans applauding the two women for their effort.

"These fans are applauding! They appreciate what they have seen tonight!" King exclaimed. "How could you not after what these women have put each other through in this match!"

"If Sheree were to win here tonight, she would go on to compete at WrestleMania for the first time in her career," JR said as Victoria pulled herself back up onto her feet, a scowl appearing on her face. "It's been five years since Victoria has competed at WrestleMania. This means too much to both women!"

Victoria pulled the seemingly unconscious Headstrong Diva to her feet, the fans exclaiming as she lifted the younger woman onto her right shoulder, backing up into the middle of the ring with a scowl, a vice grip around Sheree's abdomen.

"Victoria has Sheree on her shoulders!" The fans winced as Victoria bounced on the spot, violently ragging Sheree upwards, making her cry out in pain. "Victoria has Sheree trapped in a Canadian backbreaker!"

"That move compresses the spine against the shoulder," King said. "It's a very painful and torturous hold. Sheree doesn't wanna be in this hold, this late in the match!"

"Oh man!" Jenna groaned as Victoria continued to punish Sheree for her willingness to not give up, a loud 'Sheree!' chant resounding throughout the arena.

"Victoria torturing SHEREE!" JR yelled out, the fans releasing a loud 'OHHH!' as Victoria flipped Sheree forward and down, sitting-out and planting Sheree face first into the mat. "OH! Black Widow! Black Widow!"

"My god!" King exclaimed as Victoria roared, before scrambling to turn Sheree onto her back.

"NO!" Jenna cried out in horror as Victoria scrambled into the lateral press, the fans screaming as she hooked Sheree's far leg.

"Victoria delving deep into her arsenal!" JR exclaimed.

ONE!

"That's it!" King added.

TWO!

"VICTORIA!" JR shouted.

THREE-

Victoria screamed in rage and desperation as Sheree defiantly kicked out a second before the three count, making the large Las Vegas crowd yell out in a massive shocked reaction. "NO! NO, NO, NO! SHEREE KICKED OUT! MY GOD SHEREE KICKED OUT!"

"Oh my god..." Jenna breathed, shocked and relieved.

"What?!" King exclaimed, the fans still crying out as Victoria sat up on her knees, gripping at her hair as she stared down at Sheree's still form with wide eyes. "I can't believe this!"

"What speaks to the titanium heart of Sheree Louise?!" JR questioned. Victoria released a scream of frustration, pulling at her two-toned locks.

"Oh I think that just set Victoria off!" King commented with fear as the two-tone haired woman grabbed fists full of Sheree's brunette locks, snarling in the woman's face.

"Why... WHY?!" Victoria snapped, shaking the Headstrong Diva by her hair. "WHY WON'T YOU STAY DOWN?! WHY?!"

"Oh boy. She's lost it..." Jenna gulped.

"Victoria shouting in Sheree's face," JR added.

The veteran snarled as she stood, pulling Sheree up with her, before rushing Sheree into the southwest corner. "Look out!"

"Oh my gosh!" Jenna cried out, the fans releasing a loud 'Ohhh!' as Victoria threw Sheree shoulder first into the ring-post.

"Victoria sending Sheree into the steel ring-post!" JR added as Victoria shook with rage, gripping at her hair as her chest heaved in absolute fury, a dark glower on her face.

"Oh my..." King gulped. "I think Sheree just awoke something dark inside Victoria..."

"She's become unhinged!" Jenna exclaimed as the Vicious Vixen stormed out of the ring.

"The Victoria of old is starting to make an appearance," JR said as Sheree pulled herself out of the corner, crumbling to the canvas, while Victoria snarled at the fans at ringside. "And that's a very dangerous problem for Sheree Louise."

"Oh no..." King gasped with horror as Victoria reached down and began to tear apart the mat at ringside, the fans gasping with shock and horror as the woman pulled back the mat, exposing the hard concrete, the referee trying desperately to stop her.

"What is she doing?!" Jenna cried out in terror.

"Victoria is exposing the hard concrete at ringside!" JR cried out. "The danger of this match just went up a notch!"

"I would really start fearing for Sheree's wellbeing right now..." King gulped as Victoria glowered at the woman's still form with a dark, almost hungry look on her face.

The Vicious Vixen climbed up onto the apron, reaching through the ropes and grabbing Sheree by her brunette locks. "I don't like this..."

"Me neither. I've got a bad feeling about this..." Jenna said as Victoria dragged Sheree out of the ring and onto the ring apron, the rage-filled look on her face intensifying as she pulled Sheree up.

"The borderline psychotic look on Victoria's face..." JR muttered as the older woman stared Sheree in her glassy blue eyes, panting in rage. "It's bone-chilling."

"You... you brought this on yourself," Victoria snarled in Sheree's face, before pulling her into a powerbomb position, sending everyone into a terrified frenzy.

"Oh my god! Victoria no!"

"No! No, no!" Jenna exclaimed in horror as Victoria eyed the concrete floor dangerously. "No!"

"She's gonna kill her!" King cried out in fear. "She's gonna end her career!"

"This is desperate!" JR growled as Victoria attempted to lift Sheree off the apron, the crowd crying out.

"Oh my god! Oh my god!" Jenna chanted in absolute fear as she watched her twin's legs flail in the air. "Oh my GOD!"

Sheree planted her feet onto the apron, the audience breaking out into a loud pop of relief when she lifted the crazed woman off her feet, back dropping Victoria onto the apron.

"Whoa!" King exclaimed as Victoria arched her back off the apron, squirming in pain. Sheree dropped to a knee, her right leg hanging off the apron as she took a minute to get her breath back.

"Sheree escapes disaster!" JR called out in clear relief. "Thank god!"

"That would have been disastrous for sure," King added as Victoria rolled off the apron.

"Thank god Sheree had the wherewithal to avoid that," Jenna said as Sheree pushed herself off the apron, glowering at Victoria.

"I-I have a feeling these two are far from done..." King commented, gulping as Victoria snarled back at Sheree, favouring her back, the fans cheering on the intense stare down, both women blocking out the official's insistence to get back in the ring.

"Whoa!" Sheree ducked as Victoria came at her with a wild swing, slipping beneath the older woman's arm and behind her. "WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!"

"Oh my god!" Jenna exclaimed, Victoria's eyes wide with shock as she suddenly found herself being lifted off the floor from behind, the fans breaking out into a frenzy at the sight. "OH MY GOD!"

"MY GOD! MY GOD!" JR cried out. With an intense roar, Sheree heaved and launched Victoria backwards, the fans crying out and releasing a massive 'OHHH!' as the Bostonian sent the older woman flying, hitting the exposed floor hard on her shoulders. "GOOD GOD! GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY!"

"Oh goodness!" Jenna exclaimed in horror, the large audience going crazy. "Jesus Christ Sheree!"

"A German suplex on the hard concrete!" JR added as Sheree sat up, her chest heaving with absolute rage, a blazing wrath in her intense blue eyes as she snarled angrily, Victoria lying out cold and prone, her eyes wide. "My god! Sheree just destroyed Victoria!"

"And she didn't hesitate!" King cried out, his hands on his head in shock. "She didn't hesitate at all! Oh my gosh!"

Sheree pulled herself up onto her feet, pulling Victoria's deadweight up. "Victoria is completely out of it!"

Sheree rolled the Californian back into the ring as massive chants of 'Sheree! Sheree! Sheree!' resounded throughout the arena.

Sheree entered the ring as Victoria attempted to stand, only succeeding in stumbling off her feet, her eyes wide in a daze as she crawled towards the corner opposite the announce table.

"Victoria can barely stand!" JR called out as the woman used the ring ropes to pull herself up.

Sheree watched silently, her blue eyes dark and ferocious. Victoria glowered right back at the woman, her movements sluggish.

"You..." Victoria stumbled towards the eerily silent brunette with a glassy-eyed glare, completely defiant. "You... can't... you won't... bea-"

"OHHH!" King and Jenna exclaimed, the fans releasing a loud and shocked 'OHHH!' as Sheree blasted Victoria in the face with a remorseless spin kick.

"My god!" JR cried out as Victoria hit the canvas hard.

"What a kick!" King added. "Wow!"

Sheree grabbed a fist full of Victoria's hair, shaking her head with a snarl. "It's over!"

"Sheree just said it's over!" JR exclaimed, the fans cheering loudly as Sheree pulled the dazed Californian up onto her feet, wrapping her arm around Victoria's neck. "She's going for the Snapshot!"

The fans cried out as Sheree lifted Victoria fully off the canvas, hitting the sitout Impaler in the middle of the ring, the loud crowd releasing an 'OHHH!' as Victoria was planted face-first into the mat between Sheree's legs.

"She hit it!" King cheered.

"Snapshot!" JR exclaimed as Sheree pulled her legs in, scrambling to push Victoria onto her back, the fans screaming and cheering. "Sheree hit the Snapshot!"

"There's the cover! Back press! Far leg hooked!"

ONE!

"Come on! Come on!" Jenna cheered.

TWO!

"Two!" JR called out.

THREE!

"THREE! Sheree got the three!"

The Las Vegas crowd exploded as Sheree sat up, fist pumping the air in relief and exhaustion as "Headstrong" played throughout the arena. "Sheree got the three!"

"Wow!" King exclaimed as the Headstrong Diva fell onto her side, her arm still raised in victory.

"Sheree just pinned Victoria for the third time in a row!" JR cried out. "She's going to WrestleMania!"

"Wow!" King said again as Sheree willed herself to her feet, Victoria rolling out of the ring in a complete daze. "That was more brutal than I thought it would be!"

"Here's your winner, Sheree Louise!" Lilian Garcia announced, the fans breaking out into a loud reception as the referee raised Sheree's arm in victory. The brunette winced as she favoured her abdomen.

"Holy cow what a match!"

"Victoria tried everything!" Jenna said as replays were shown of the powerbomb to Sheree on the ramp. "Victoria tried to destroy Sheree, but Sheree refused to give up. Refused to give in!"

"We found out a lot about Sheree tonight!" JR added as replays of the German suplex on the floor was shown. "Good god! What a suplex! Sheree was perfectly willing to give Victoria hell!"

Replays of the final spin kick and the finishing Snapshot was shown. "Victoria claimed Sheree didn't have killing instinct. That she didn't have what it takes to be champion. And Sheree just responded in a huge, HUGE way!"

"My god did she ever!" King exclaimed as Sheree stood on the middle ropes opposite the timekeepers area, looking out into the cheering crowd whilst favouring her ribs. She looked up at the large WrestleMania sign and smiled.

"And now there is no more distractions. Nobody in her way!" JR said as the brunette nodded her head. "Sheree's path to WrestleMania is clear! Now all that stands in her way is one woman."

"Oh boy!" Jenna grinned, pulsing with excitement.

"The WWE Women's Champion!" JR exclaimed as Sheree gingerly stepped off the ropes.

"I'm going all the way!" the woman waved her hands around her waist, signifying her desire to be champion. She stared right into the camera, a smirk on her face. "Only me and you! Me and you Melina! You better be ready! I'm coming for you!"

With that the woman stepped away from the camera, exiting the ring with a huge grin on her face.

"Sheree Louise and Melina, the WWE Women's Champion, are set for a head on collision on the Grandest stage, in front of the largest crowd! The WWE Women's Championship is on the line at WrestleMania, 6 weeks from now, in Orlando, Florida!"

And that was chapter 22! Sheree beats Victoria, but she has Melina awaiting her. Next chapter is the last part of this No Way Out PPV before we move on to the road to Mania shows and WrestleMania itself! I can't wait!

'Goodbye and Goodnight! BANG!'
