Risking It All: A Sasha Banks Story

#Crushes&CrazyPeople

Omniscient.

"The following is a Knockouts match scheduled for one fall, making their way to the ring, the team of Mercedes KV and Gail Kim!", Christy Hemme exclaimed, doing her ring announcing rounds.

Mercedes and Gail Kim made their way to the ring with huge pops. They were all smiles as the fans embraced the presence of veteran Gail, and the in ring debut of Mercedes.

Being that Mercedes just debuted,coming from the independent scene, and was receiving huge fan response was impressive, and another reason why TNA made a good decision and signed her.

They finally entered the ring, giving each other high fives. Their newfound friendship outside of the ring translated well onscreen.

"And their opponents, the team of Madison Ranye, and the TNA Knockouts Champion, Taryn Terrell!"

The pair made their way to the ring, giving the crowd attitude and whispering in each others ear on the way to the ring, playing up on their characters.

The bell rung and the match starts with Gail and Taryn. They go for a tie up, which Taryn follows up with a knee to the midsection.

Taryn shows interest on wanting to fight Mercedes in the match, but when she is tagged in, she didn't hesitate to tag Madison in.

A few more minutes into the match, Mercedes and Taryn are finally in the ring together. Taryn tries to escape, but Mercedes catches her, and hits a wheelbarrow bulldog for the 3 count.

Mercedes has the win!

Madison carries Taryn out of the ring.

After the match Mercedes grabs the mic.

"Taryn. Tonight I was able to easily beat you. I proved that I can take you, and now I'm coming for that shiny belt that's around your waist. What do you say about that champ?", Mercedes confidently spoke with a grin on her face.

The battered Taryn Terrell seemed unfazed, snatching a mic from a producer.

"Your cute. Listen closely. You want your little title match? Fine you can have it, but just know that you will loose, and this shiny belt will still be around my waist."

She dropped her mic, and left to the back with her tag team partner. Mercedes and Gail get more pops from the crowd, before they exit as well.

Mercedes.

After our match, Gail and I headed to the backstage area.

We made our way through gorilla, passing by Ethan.

"Good job out their ladies, especially you Mercedes."

I smiled."Thanks. Good luck out there."

"Thanks.", He replied as he prepared to make his entrance.

I started to walk away when I noticed that Gail wasn't following me.

"Why'd you stop walking?", I asked.

She gave me a look." You didn't want to give your crush a good luck kiss?"

I rolled my eyes." Seriously Gail? When are you and Brooke going to stop pestering me about this? I don't like EC3, he's not my type."

Ever since yesterday, both Brooke and Gail have been on my nerves about me liking EC3.

"Sure you don't. Let's just get change, so we can all go out. Tomorrow is the last day of tapings, and I probably won't see you for awhile." Gail said, changing the subject.

"Aww, I'm gonna miss you too. Brooke has a segment next, so we have to wait awhile."

My first few days as a TNA Knockout have been decent overall.

I have made friends, an enemy, met nice crew members, and someone who likes me.

It's kind of like high school all over again.

Just as we were about to head to the Knockouts locker room, we have been stopped by none other than the Knockouts champ herself.

"Well if it isn't the #1 contender.", Taryn said, with her hand on her hip.

I mocked her stance." Yep, that's me."

She chuckled." Oh someone's confident. I like that. I can say the same for Gail Chi, I mean Kim."

Gail fanned her off, unfazed of the petty comment that was made." You're damn right I'm confident. Why wouldn't I be?"

Taryn smiled." I just think that it's cute that the both of you think that you'll actually take this title from me."

I rolled my eyes." You cannot be serious right now. You are so delusional. You really think that you're gonna hold on to that title forever, huh?"

"That's right. I'm gonna leave this company as the Knockouts champion. Then you all can have a pathetic little tournament to crown a new one."

I scoffed, not believing the nonsense coming out of her mouth." And what makes you think that's going to happen?", I said, crossing my arms.

She started laughing hysterically. "Like I said before, I always get what I want around here."

I frowned." Your sucking up to the right people aren't you? Nasty ass."

Gail started laughing at my comment, while Taryn furiously glared at me.

"You bitch! How dare you come into this company starting rumors about me. Don't get it twisted, you're still a newbie. "

"I'm not starting rumours, I just didn't know what you meant by what you said."

"People around here follow my orders or else..."

I chuckled." Or else what? You don't scare me or anyone else here."

She smirked."Cross me, and you'll find out. Watch your back."

With those words she left out of the locker room.

"She plays her character so well in real life.", I muttered.

"Yeah, she's a delusional one. Brooke just texted me that she was done with her segment, so let's get changed.", Gail stated.

"Ok."

I couldn't believe that Taryn really acted like her character in real life. That is beyond annoying, and I won't let her think she has power over me.

Tomorrow is the last day of tapings, and I'm going to find out who are the people that are taking orders from her.

I think I know one person that could help me with this.
