Danielle had shown up to the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri, as early as she could. Most of the Superstars and Diva weren't here yet as it was still about an hour before roll call. She wanted to make it to wardrobe and try to get a few outfit adjustments done last minute. Luckily, Sandra was able to work her in despite the busy show they were set to do tonight. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» Thank you so much, Miss Sandra. I don't know what I'd do without you! Danielle leaned against a counter. The room she stood in had different outfits strung out all over the place. Some were finished, some still needed work, other's were set out to be worked on. Sandra nodded her head, her glasses sat on the bridge of her nose as she stitched away at an outfit. «°×Wardrobe.Queen;;Ms.Sandra×°» Mmhmm, you better be thanking me for getting you in on a crazy night like this. You're lucky I like you. Danielle beamed a smile at her. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» Well thank you. Delta lost one of my bags when I flew into Columbia last week. I didn't notice that was the bag that had my outfit for tonight in it. You are absolutely a life saver! «°×Wardrobe.Queen;;Ms.Sandra×°» It's what I do, hunny. You aren't the first one that's had something come up like that don't worry. Luckily, I was ahead on most everything so I could do it for you. Danielle crossed the room and gave the costume designer a heart felt hug. Sandra returned the hug and smiled, getting back to her work. «°×Wardrobe.Queen;;Ms.Sandra×°» Now scram, child. I have a lot of work to do if you want this ready for tonight. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» Alright, thank you again Sandra! Danielle hurried to get out of there as to not bother her anymore. She decided to walk down to the catering area, looking over the options they had just set up for the staff and superstars. Danielle picked a plate up and helped herself to a small portion of baked white fish with lemon pepper seasoning. She picked a few veggies to accompany her small meal, and grabbed a bottled water from the ice bin. Danielle made her way over to a table and set her food down before taking a seat herself. She took a few bites of her food, sitting in almost complete silence. Well, if you didn't count the random noises of backstage crew still setting everything up. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» Hey you. Danielle looked up from her plate and smiled at the petite brunette. Eileen Sandoval was a close personal friend of Natalie Nelson, better known as Eva Marie on screen. She had a part time gig with the company to do makeup. Eileen always managed to work wonders on all the Superstars and Divas. Danielle smiled and motioned for her to take a seat. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» Oh hey girl, what's going on? Eileen picked a chair and sat in it next to Danielle. She also had a plate with a few random vegetables on it. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» Nothing really, on break for now. It's gonna be hectic in the next hour or so. Danielle nodded in agreement. The time from roll call to show time was always hectic. Especially during tournament season. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» Yeah, I got here early to take care of an outfit for tonight. Delta lost one of my bags last week and it still hasn't been found. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» Ugh, I hate Delta! «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» I hear that. Anyways, I guess this all gives me time to hit the gym quick before the craziness begins. Eileen smiled and nodded. She crossed her legs and picked at the food on her plate. The makeup artist seemed to contemplated for a few moments on saying something to Danielle. After a few silent minutes passed, she sighed and spoke up. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» So, I was backstage last week at Warfare and I overheard the Bella's talking. They were saying something about you seeing Mike Mizanin? What's up with that? Danielle went to take a bite of her fish and stopped. She raised her eyebrow inquisitively. Why the hell were they even mentioning her personal life to begin with? «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» He and I are, uh - I don't know. Nothing set in stone, why? Why would they be talking about that to begin with? Eileen bit her bottom lip realizing that maybe she shouldn't have said anything. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» Oh. Well, uh, they were saying that you were bunking up with him to get your five seconds of fame. Danielle clenched her jaw and dropped her fork on her plate. She took a drink from her water and shook her head. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» Those skeevy little bitches! First of all, I was successful before Mike and I even started talking. Those hags don't even know what the hell they're even talking about! They don't even know me that well, and they damn sure don't know a damn thing about my personal life either. I knew they'd throw a fit because Natalie, Mercedes, and I have been getting more air time than them. Danielle couldn't stand a lot of girls for this reason. Sure, she played a catty bitch on TV, but off screen she was completely different. She didn't often hang with that many females because they always liked to talk behind your back. Danielle was beginning to learn that the twins were some of the worst offenders in the locker room. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» I don't know, I didn't even know you were seeing Mike until they mentioned it. Nikki was upset since creative decided to write her off and let Brie pick up the victory. I just heard bits and pieces. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» I get that, but those two need to leave my life out of their filthy mouths. It's one thing on screen, but you think you get at least some kind of respect when the cameras aren't rolling. It's girls like that that drive me insane! So fake and nice to your face, but as soon as you aren't around, they run their mouths about you. Danielle shook her head again. Unbelievable. She stabbed a piece of her fish with her fork and continued to eat. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» I'm sorry, I probably shouldn't have even mentioned it. I don't want to stir up drama. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» You didn't do anything wrong. They are the ones who want to bad mouth everyone, then wonder why the higher up's don't want to give them a push. Maybe they need to stop pissing every one off. I hear people don't even want to work with them. Besides, I'm sure Brie's just jealous because I heard she hit on Mike before and nothing ever happened. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» Maybe she's jealous? «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» I don't doubt it. It seems that's all they ever are. Jealous. On screen and off. Wow. I really hope the suits let me win tonight, just to piss her off even more. Eileen laughed and finished off her vegetables. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» Alright, well, I better get back to my station. I didn't mean to upset you or anything. Eileen didn't want this to come back on her and possibly interfere with her career in EBWF, or start of a career anyways. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» Don't worry about it, hun. I'll deal with it on my own time. «°×Makeup.Extraordinaire;;Eileen.Sandoval×°» Good luck out there tonight. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Danielle.Moinet×°» Thanks, Eileen. Danielle flashed a quick smile at Eileen as she got up and threw her plate away. Eileen left, leaving Danielle sitting alone once again. Danielle couldn't believe Brie and Nikki had the audacity to talk trash on her. At their place of work no less. She never thought they had any issues off camera, but maybe she had overlooked something. Danielle then finished her plate as well and tossed it in the trash. Maybe she'd have to have a little chat with them after this tournament was over and done with. Danielle got up and left catering to head back over to wardrobe and check on the status of her outfit. A camera in the Mean Girls locker room opened the scene with all three of the Mean Girls, who were sat in their own salon styled chairs. Inside of their own personal, over-sized locker room, with all the perks and amenities that came with being champions. They had fresh flowers in the room, plenty of mirrors to gaze at themselves, a plethora of makeup options laid out on the tables for them to choose from. The girls had racks of clothing to skim through, their own bartender and a small catering table. Three huge big screen TV's sat in the room that they had each requested, simply because they could. They had their own hair and makeup artists at the ready, so no waiting in line for these three to get glammed up. Of course they were Eva Marie's close friends, so the Mean Girls decided their would be no better option then them. They seemed to have it all. The Mean Girls even had a bowl of M&M's on a glass coffee table, with all the yellow ones picked out. Not that they hated the yellow M&M's, they just liked being able to get whatever they wanted. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Man, the life of a champion is greattt! She stretched out in her chair and yawned. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» I know, I never want to share a locker room with other Divas ever again! «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» Right, this high life stuff is right up our alley, I'm spoiled by it now. Summer snapped her fingers and waved the hair stylist over. Jose Martinez, who was well known on instagram as glit_glam, walked over and began to tease and play with Summer's hair. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Please fix this hair. It's so hot here in St. Louis and the humidity in the air is making my hair poofy. I can't have this happening to me before my match against Brie Bella. I have to look on point when I win the Queen of the Ring! I want plenty of pictures of me being crowded after the match, and tons of pictures of Brie when I defeat her. So I have to look PERF! Jose nodded and continued to apply the necessary product into her hair, working his magic. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» Definitely, image is very important. Something the Bella Twins don't understand. Please, for the love of God, knock Brie out of this thing once and for all. I already beat her at Wrestlemania, I shouldn't have to beat her a second time! We all know she hasn't improved any. «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» I say even if she does win, we should run to the ring and attack her. Then break that crown over her in the middle of the ring. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» We can even whack Nikki with the scepter a few times. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» AND choke Brie out with the sash! The three Divas laughed at the idea. It actually didn't seem like a bad idea at that. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Well if she truly plans to beat me, she better pull out all the stops. I'm not going to lay down and give her the win like her waste of space sister Nikki. I had the fight of my life last week with Trish Stratus. I'd say match of the year worthy. Pretty sure I got this, I mean, I actually did a memorable match last week. What did she do? Nothing! Freakin' nothing! Story of her career, right? Urgh! It just makes me mad she got an easy way into the finals. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» Yeah, but it just means we get to rip her apart one more time. Just imagine, if she does manage to get passed you tonight, which I doubt... I get to embarrass her for the second time! She will be so humiliated, she'll have to quit. I mean how can you show your face around here after something like that? I was surprised she even bothered to come back after losing at Wrestlemania. Maybe she likes being the running joke of the Women's division. Sasha shrugged her shoulders. «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» Sasha has a point. Brie is known as the one who loses every time she is handed a huge title opportunity. She's going to think the third time is a charm, but we all know it's not. Especially with her facing you, Summer. Summer nodded, thinking about everything all at once. Her girls were making her feel even more confident for the match then she already was. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» You're right. You're absolutely right. I love you guys, you always make so much sense. I can't even get over what a perfect team we make. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» Tuh, yeah we do! «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» Nobody has a stronger bond than us. Not even the Bella's. No one cares if they shared a uterus for nine months, we all see the jealousy in Nikki's eyes for never getting anywhere in her career. Or the sadness in Brie's eyes because she feels sympathy for her talent-less sister, and her inability to achieve any kind of success. Let alone win more than one match. Sasha waved to the in room bartender they had also requested. The middle aged man nodded in acknowledgement and poured her a glass of chardonnay. The man crossed the locker room and handed the Women's champion the glass of wine. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» Since I'm not scheduled tonight or anything, I'm going to celebrate tonight a little early. To my bae, Summer Rae! Summer pretended to hold an invisible glass and cheered with Sasha. Sasha drank from the glass and set it down next to her. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Thanks. It means so much to me! How supportive you both are of me. Especially you, Sasha. Sasha looked up at Summer and smiled. She patted Summer's hand in assurance. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» I'd rather step in the ring and face you any day over Brie. Not because I'm afraid of her, because obviously I'm not. It's more the fact that I don't think she deserves a third shot at the title in a year. So she can fail again. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love to embarrass her in front of millions of people. Plus I get paid very well to do it. I just think you deserve this way more than she does. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» I agree. I may be a little biased but who isn't? I actually set a good example for girls everywhere. Brie is the exact opposite. She tries to verbally bully her opponents, belittling their sexual escapades like it's even her business, or calling them dumb. Someone needs to get her some new material or something. Of course Summer was guilty of some of these same things herself, but she'd never admit to it when being compared to Brie Bella. Summer looked into a hand held mirror, checking out Jose's work. She nodded slightly in approval. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Much better. «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» It's funny because so many Diva's seem so sure that if you and Sasha face one another, that it will break us up. The trio giggled together. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» Yes, because they all know us SO well. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» They just don't understand things like we do. Although I did just wanted to make sure that there wouldn't be any tension between us. I don't think their would be, but ya know... I just want to make sure. We just have to keep the title and make sure it doesn't go to Skeletor. «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» I can assure you, no tension. No matter what happens, Brie Bella won't be walking out of SummerSlam as the champion. Summer let out a sigh of relief. She had been positive there wouldn't be any issue between them, but it never hurt to be certain. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Phew good. I can't just let this chance go to waste, but I also want us to all be okay and on the same page. «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» Always! «°×Women's.Champion;;Sasha.Banks×°» Yes, always. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Alright good. I mean, even if we do end up facing one another, it's just this one match anyways. Either way, we keep the title in this stable and that's what matters. Summer continued to admire herself in the mirror. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Though that crown will look amazing on me. Queen Summer is happening! The trio laid back and relaxed while getting ready for tonight. Sasha and Eva would be staying backstage, but it still felt nice to get dolled up for the show. You never knew if they would end up making an unscheduled appearance or not. The cameras faded to a quick commercial break. The cameras returned from commercial, capturing Michael Cole backstage in search of someone. The cameras followed him as he made his way to the Mean Girls locker room. The name plate read "Mean Girls", in big gold letters. Directly under the lettering read "Bae entry only!" Summer Rae had been scheduled an interview but never showed up during the allotted time frame. She usually ran late, but not this late. So Michael Cole decided to check to see if she was even at the arena yet. He raised his hand up and knocked on the door. After waiting for a few moments, the door swung open and Eva Marie answered. «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» What do you want? «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» I was suppose to have an interview with Summer, about fifteen minutes ago. So I was following up to see if she was here yet or not. «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» Yeah, she's here. Michael Cole took a step forward, thinking she was going to let him into their locker room. Eva didn't move a muscle, which stopped Michael Cole in his tracks. He looked confused. «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» Nah-uh, you're not bae approved. You stand in the hallway like everyone else has to, and wait. Eva turned back in the locker room and called out to her friend. «°×All.Red.Everything;;Eva.Marie×°» Summer, it's that little dweeb, Michael Cole. He wants an interview. Summer then made her way across the locker room and took Eva's place at the door. Summer stepped out from behind the door and into the hallway. She made sure to close the door behind her before she turned and looked at Michael Cole. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» What? «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» We had an interview scheduled and you no showed. Summer didn't seem bothered by this one bit. She simply shrugged it off like she did most things. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Ooops. Oh well. Guess you're here now. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» Yes... anyways, I just wanted to start off by congratulating you on your big win against Trish Stratus last week on Warfare, in the Queen of the Ring semi finals. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Yeah, thanks, but I don't need any congratulations. I told you and the rest of the world that I was going to knock her out of this tournament. That her little journey back to the top stopped with me. So it really shouldn't be any kind of surprise that I did exactly what I said I would. Like I always do anyways. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» Right. Now you advanced into the finals, which takes place tonight, here in St. Louis, Missouri. You will face Brie Bella for a chance to be officially crowned as the 2015 Queen of the Ring. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» I'm already a Queen. It may not be official on paper just yet, but I'm only a few hours away from it. I've put in the work hours, I've worked tirelessly to get here. That crown was meant for my head. Not for some greasy, dull, lounge act like Brie. Unlike her, I've held titles and I still do as we speak. Summer patted the title on her shoulder. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Now I'm sure she'll bring up some cheap insult about me sleeping around. She's only said the same thing about every Diva she's faced so far. So I'm just going to straighten this out right now. Not that it's anyone's business what I do outside of the ring. But, I don't sleep around with management or anyone for that matter, to get my place in the spotlight. As I've already said time and time again, I've been here the whole time. I'm busy working while all you other basic bitches in the back want to whine and complain about how unfair it is. My first year in this company and I'm a two time Women's Tag Team Champion. I'm a part of one of the most successful female stables, the Mean Girls, AND I'm about to be crowned as Queen of the Ring. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» Yes, but one of your title reigns was a technicality because of Sasha Banks and her eye injury. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Doesn't matter, I was still champion. I'm still champion. The gold is where it's meant to be and it won't be leaving any of us for a long, lonnngggg time. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» So you keep saying... «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Because it's true, duh! Man, I really need to remember to request Corey. Even Renee or something. All you know how to do is aggravate the living crap out of me. Michael Cole tried his best to carry on even when he got tired of the disrespect from the wrestlers. He straightened out his tie and continued. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» Well Brie Bella has made her dislike for you and the rest of the Mean Girls pretty well known. She see's this as her chance to change the way the division is by becoming the EBWF Women's champion, should she beat you here tonight, then Sasha at SummerSlam. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» She will never beat Sasha because she's not going to beat me either. Brie likes to try and dismiss us like we're no threat. She'll probably diss my nose, call me big bird, or giraffe neck or something. She'll blab on and on saying that I can't stand on my own two feet without my girls around. She rolled her eyes and shook her head. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» I've heard it all before. She can't break me down. She can't get in my head. I'm a confident individual who is happy with who I am. I actually take pride in myself and what I do. I have ambition to do better, where she'd rather make excuses on why she keeps falling short. I think I've more than proven myself since I debuted, and I'll let my own success speak for me. My actions will speak much louder than any words she can spew at me in some hour long promo. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» Word around the back is that she is equally determined like you. How can you be so sure of yourself? «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» I know what I'm capable of and tonight, Brie Bella is going to find out what I'm capable of. After I beat her, she's going to regret everything she's ever said about me or my ride or die's! I'm not going to be so easily dismissed, I'm in it to win it! Ask Trish Stratus how last week went for her. She's another one that thought she had this thing in the bag. She thought she'd blow right passed me and I wouldn't even know what hit me. Look how that turned out. Now Trish is probably at home here in St. Louis, cramming ice cream in her mouth, and choking on her tears. Summer snickered at the mental image and did a bitchy wave to the camera for added effect. She was obviously proud of herself for knocking Trish Stratus out last week. Now it was going to be Brie Bella's turn. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» I've been doing my homework so to speak, watching old promos and matches by Brie. Y'know, to see what I'm getting myself into and what not, and man it's such a waste of time. Way too much time wasted doing this research on Brie that I won't ever be able to get back. Have you listened to the things she rambles on about? «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» I'm usually busy getting interviews done so I don't always catch all the promo's. I try to watch them when I have a chance. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Good Lord, be thankful for that. It's enough to make your head explode. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» I happen to think Brie Bella is one of the best Diva's on the mic. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Oh, Cole. You're so funny. Summer let out one of the fakest laughs she'd ever done on the show before. She somewhat pushed Cole's shoulder with her hand like he made a joke. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» But seriously. Tell me something, because I really, REALLY, want to know. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» Okay... «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Is Brie suppose to be a comedian or something? Michael Cole looked confused, unsure of what Summer meant by this. He shook his head and spoke into his microphone. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» No... I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean by that. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Oh. I just thought, y'know, she was trying something new. Making jokes left and right lately like a comedian would. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» How so exactly? «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» I remember her saying something about the faces of this division, I.E, ME and my girls - didn't deserve our spotlight. Apparently we're all stupid, but Brie's the only genius employed by EBWF. She goes on about how fake Diva's are around here, and we're all basically a dime a dozen. With our fake hair, fake smiles, fake boobs. Does she realize that her precious twin is a part of that? Fake tits... pretty sure she had a nose job too. She's not so natural either... so I just assumed she knew her sister was in that group of Diva's she loves to diss so much... Summer shrugged her slender shoulders. This caused her EBWF Women's tag title to move slightly with the movement. She reached up and held the title in place. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» She even mentioned something about working so hard while we did nothing? Summer burst into laughter. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Pretty sure she's the one that took several months off after her loss to Sasha Banks at Wrestlemania. Brie was basically NO WHERE to be found after she LOST on the grandest stage of them all! One of my favorite moments from the last Wrestlemania was laughing as she lost the match in front of millions of fans. She was so cocky about winning. Dismissing Sasha Banks, even though everyone knows by now that Sasha is fierce! It's just so funny, because Brie did all that work just to fall short.. YET AGAIN!! Summer continued to laugh like it was some hilarious joke. It was a joke to her. Brie was a joke to her. She had never been a fan of Brie and neither Diva got along well with the other. «°×One.And.Only;;Michael.Cole×°» Again? How did she fall short? She won the Royal Rumble this year... «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×°» Yeah! She may have won the Rumble, but it was all for nothing! She left Wrestlemania empty handed, with a boot up her rear end, that MY best friend, Sasha Banks, left there. Sasha wiped the floor with Brie! It's even more hilarious because before ALLLLL of that, Brie won the Queen of the Ring last year. She got to face Michelle McCool and failed! So TWICE now, Brie has had the opportunity of a lifetime, and fumbled when it counted the most! Summer shook her head in shame. It was a pity that those opportunities were wasted on the same Diva. She didn't even deserve it in Summer's mind. Sure, Brie had won a few tournaments, but nothing else substantial. «°×Legs.For.Days;;Summer.Rae×° |
