Comeback!
Baron's P-O-V
'Constable Baron Corbin, a special correspondent appointed by Stephanie McMahon in Monday night raw who would be a deviant heel trying to screw things up to the maximum to generate immense hatred amongst the wwe universe.' The creative staff who's name I didn't know read out my new role in the company.
I frowned. 'You mean, I'm no more a wrestler!' I said pretty offended.
The guy was about to saw something but I was feeling the impatient rage fill up my veins.
'Wait! You don't want me to become the new Corporate Kane, do you?' I asked shifting my gaze to Hunter who was sitting on the sofa with a smirk on tlhis lips.
'The new and improved version Baron.' Hunter confirmed by doubt. I did not like that. I did not even like the idea of being a corporate figure stuck to the mic. I wanted to be a ferocious fighter. I wanted to be me!
'Seriously! After all I've learnt and executed for all these years, you give me this Hunter!?' I asked not believing they could do something like this.
Hunter raised his eyebrows. 'Baron, I don't think there's a problem with this. Moreover, you have been out of the ring for three damn years. I'm sure you need to spend some time at the performance center before jumping on as a full time wrestler.' Hunter reminded.
I shook my head restlessly.
'Besides, this gimmick and your clash with Kurt Angle will definitely bring on the reaction from the crowd which you never got.' Hunter said leaning towards me.
My heart stung a little hearing the which you never got part.
'Think about it Baron, they'll hate you a lot...' he said.
I scoffed. 'Thinking about it! Do I really have an option?' I asked sarcastically knowing it was the final choice.
Hunter shrugged. 'Well, considering the company bailing you out and bearing the compensations, I'm afraid not actually.' he said with a grin.
I scoffed. 'Fine. Give me my scripts.' I asked. Who knows what they'll make me do.
My eyes gazed over the words making me furrow my eyebrows. My heart paced. I lifted my eyes to Hunter who smiled.
'Good luck Baron.' he said.
Why do I have to face this on my very first night? What game was fate playing with me?
Bayley's P-O-V
'Much better!' I muttered doing the stretches with Sasha inside the locker room. My backbone felt a little stiff and I really needed some flexes. So, here I was in our locker room stretching my muscles with my ear buds on pretty much ignoring the rest of the show. There was a last moment change in plans for today's match.
It was initially supposed to be Sasha, ne and Ember vs The Riott Squad but to intensify the misunderstandings between Sasha and me, they decided to replace me with Alexa Bliss who would fake an injury to leave the match. Then it would be my cue to run and replace her in the team by tagging myself in and pick a victory and earning the spotlight much to Sasha's dismay.
'Ready for it Pam?' Mercy asked.
'Ready when you are.' I said. She smiled. 'By the way, I assume Ferris is Finn's responsibility today!' she said.
'Yes. Pretty much since I've multiple segments. Plus, you know Ferris is always better off with Finn then me.' I said chuckling.
Well, we barely leave Ferris with nanny. So whenever it's the show, we carry him with us and he'd either stay with me or Finn in our locker rooms.
'Okay then, be on time. The match is gonna start. I got to go.' Sasha said making her way towards the gorilla.
I nodded with a smile.
******
I jogged a little looking at the TV monitor when I saw Alexa Bliss faking an injury and trying to get off the ring. It was my time.
The music guy signaled me for the gorilla as they saw Alexa making her way backstage.
Sasha and Ember were in trouble falling for the number's game. And then...
The crowd roared as my music blasted the arena. I rushed to the ring apron to the aid of Sasha and Ember, making things even. Soon, Sasha tagged me in and with my fresh agility and smooth execution, it took me no time to perform the Bayley to Belly on Liv Morgan and pick up the victory for the team.
The turn it up roared once again as Ember came and hugged me celebrating our victory. Sasha glared through and we exchanged a mysterious look as decided. Finally the reflection rose our hands leading to our little celebration.

Baron's P-O-V
My heart pounded as I saw her for the first time in three years. She looked the same. Perhaps, she was happy in her life. I saw her run to the aid of Sasha Banks and Ember Moon. They won. The ref raises her hand. She smiled out of joy. I knew this smile really well. She had it every time she was excited. I clutched into my fist gulping through my crazy breaths as the TV zoomed to her face. There she was..the mother of my child, the girl I loved more than anything in the world.
My throat dried with the eyes gathering those strange emotions after three years. The crew member showed his thumbs signaling me to start.
I licked my lips trying to calm my emotions down.
I shook my head looking at the screen as they filmed. I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked towards a concerned Kurt Angle urging me to start. I nodded to him. No. I can't let my personal emotions ruin my present. Hunter gave me this opportunity and I can't let him down.
'What's going on?' I said shaking my head with an irritated expression looking over at the TV and then to Kurt.
'What? They just won a match and that's not your business.' Kurt said shrugging.
I gave him a frowned expression reminding him of being appointed by Stephanie McMahon as the new Constable of Monday night raw which I announced earlier that night.
'Do I need to remind you Kurt that everything that happens on raw is my business. I'm your boss' eyes and ears and nowhere in the rulebook does it state that a wwe superstar can insert themselves in a match they're not legally in. So, I suggest you go find Sasha, Ember and Bayley.. ' my breath hitched as I took her name... '..and you break it to them that their win doesn't count.' I said exhaling the air trapped in my chest and crossing my arms on my chest with a smirk of pride. Angle gave an appropriate confused look making my smirk bigger... I turned to him sensing his helplessness.. ' or you are going to ask Stephanie..?' I asked chewing my lips with a typical 'bad guy' smug.
Scene Over
I took a deep breath after finishing my lines. Few crew members said I was really good but only I knew what turmoils I had to face while pronouncing her name after so long, to see her smiling happily after so long!
I excused myself walking out of the scene. I didn't even have Corey right now since he was still in the commentary for next 40 minutes. I walked to the catering...alone...as usual. Nothing changed. There were the same hypocritical product marketing to promote the hyped superstars, there were still the same idiotic guys discussing irrelevant problems in the world, plastic girls talking about their banging nuisances and everything else. I walked straight to the counter ignoring the mess even though I heard few voices call my name. I filled a cup of black coffee to meet my thirst and pass my time. I turned right when my eyes fell on the traveling vans and buses. There was one with a big Roman Reigns poster on it and another with Braun Strowman, Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler and another with..my heart jumped as I saw the images of Finn Balor, Bayley and Sasha Banks on it.
I realized both Finn and Bayley had smiles on their faces. They looked happy, close and together. They deserved to be together...always...with no silly distraction. A sarcastic smile occurred on my lips as I consoled myself with a fake pride of letting them live their lives at the best, of letting things go, of isolating myself for good. I walked straight reminiscing the memories of the day she walked in to my locker room the first time to the day she visited my house the very last time. She was nervous both the times..fidgeting her fingers, biting her lips and playing with her hairs. I can never forget the moment she sobbed to me explaining the truth of her pregnancy. She begged me not to let Finn get hurt.
Like always, I couldn't tell No. I let my rights slip, my dreams fade and my wishes die. I gave it away. Finn was happy. She was happy and I couldn't be happier...or that's what I have been consoling myself for the last three years. I sighed closing my eyes trying to forget everything when....
......my knees bumped into something or rather someone, making me a little stumble and hence, making me spill the some of my coffee on my shirt.
Fuck! That's hot!
I eyed the little thing in front of me angrily.
'Hey watch where you're going kid!' I clenching my jaw at the little lost boy in front of me.
He blinked looking at me with his deep brown eyes and frowned.
'You we'nt wochin too. I dropt my drink for you.' the kid said biting his stro looking down at the orange drink that slipped off his hand due to the collision.
What the..? My teeth gritted at the audacity of the child. Who the hell us this?
'What did you just say? Didn't your parents teach you how to speak to your elders?' I asked shooting glares at him as I bent down grabbing the kid by his tender arms.
The kid did not even wince and looked at me wide eyed with a slight shock and lots of questions.
'My parnts are gooj peopl. You are badj...very meanie.' he said rather softly even though those eyes had an intensity that would dig holes into mine.
I frowned and clutched my fists. Something about this kid was boiling my blood.
'Listen Kid..' I pointed my index finger at him. It's time the unprincipled child learns some serious manners. 'You..'
'Hey!' I saw Chad Gable walking this way with a smile. 'There you are litttle F.. Corbin!' his smile dropped when his focus shifted from me from the child.
So, do I assume it's his kid?
I stood up crossing my arms on my chest shifting the glares towards Chad now.
'Ehhh.. Baron! Did he bother you much?' Gable asked forcing a smile on his face. Of course, he knew things better.
'Bother!? Really Gable?' I asked raising my eyebrows in annoyance. 'This little thing..' I pointed to the kid. '...spilled my coffee and now he's fucking arguing!' I said looking at the kid again.
Chad looked over at me in surprise and then at the kid.
To my disbelief, he smiled at the kid and ruffled his hairs. 'Did you really do that to Uncle Baron, Fe..' I cut him off.
'Hey! You're really gonna ask him? Is that how you pamper your kid? No wonder he turned out like that!' I said annoyed.
Gable shook his head probably trying to say something but..
'He dropt my drink too.' the kid said pointing to me.
My eyes frowned. Shouldn't Gable ask his son to apologize to me? Chad instead kneeled near his kid with a smile.
'Aww! Is it? Well, Uncle Baron didn't see you and he's sorry..' Chad said making a pout face.
What on earth!
'Hey! I'm not sorry. He should be!' I said getting a little frustrated now.
Chad straightened up and frowned his eyes at me.
'What? What now? Your kid needs to learn some serious manners Gable, that's it.' I spat.
To my disbelief, Chad chuckled. 'God! You didn't change a bit in these three years, Corbin!' Chad said. 'He's a little kid, for God sake!'
And does that mean, he has the right to talk back to elders?
'And don't worry, I'll get you a new drink little one.' Chad said ruffling the kid's hairs again.
My teeth gritted. 'To hell with you two.' I muttered angrily.
'Baron, seriously..?' Chad was about to give me some lesson advice but..
'He's a schupij Uncl Chalz! Jon't tchak to him.' the kid said grabbing Chad's hands.
That little.. Wait! Did he just call Chad Uncle? Isn't he his Dad?
I frowned in confusion.
'Okay little one. Your Dad's match must be over. Let's go and see him.' Chad said grabbing the kid's hand turning to leave.
The kid nodded but for a split second, his eyes landed on mine. I felt something really weird at the moment.
'Bye. Bad Uncl Barnnn.' the kid said softly before leaving with Gable.
What the...
I wonder who's kid he is!
I shook my head trying to shrug the kid off my mind. But, he had something different in him that actually affected me at the very first look. Silly, isn't it?

Bayley's P-O-V
Me, Ember and Sasha walked to our respective locker rooms after shooting the segment with Kurt Angle disqualifying us because of my illegal interference, creating a heat between me and Sasha yet again.
'That's pretty cool. I mean disqualifying us and getting us the same rematch next week!' Sasha said as we reached our locker room.
'Yeah and the wwe did kill two birds with a stone in this case. Creating a rift between you two on one hand and playing with Kurt Angle's head with this new Constable thing was really something!' Ember said.
'New Constable!' I asked frowning. What was that? Sasha too was confused.
Ember frowned. 'Didn't you guys see the earlier tapings?' Ember asked.
'Well, No.' Sasha said looking at me. 'Me and Pam were actually busy stretching in our locker rooms.' she said.
'Oh man! You guys missed something really funny!' Ember chuckled. 'We've got a character playing Stephanie McMahon's eyes and ears on Monday night raw that would monitor everything Kurt Angle does.' she says.
'Well. Much like Corporate Kane.' Sasha said nodding.
I felt a little curious.
'Well, but who's playing it? Anyone from the corporation or..'
'Baron Corbin.' Ember said.
I froze instantly. Who?
Baron Corbin! No. Can't be.
My head was spinning almost like I was drowning like I was falling off.
'What?' I could only mouth without a sound.
'What?' I heard Sasha ask. 'Corbin is back?' he asked with the tone of surprise just like me. The only difference was I lost my voice.
My heart was racing. 'B..Baron is back from the j..jail?' I asked shivering with fear and restlessness.
'Yeah and he looks so hot in his new look.' Ember said giggling. 'I heard they bailed him out and it was easy due to the lack of evidences and...problems...Sherif...the system..compensations..' I could only register few words Ember said because my ears were ringing with a strange buzz blocking my brain cells. My eyes were getting heavier and I was loosing the capacity to think.
I saw Sasha nodding a speaking to Ember. Both of their images were getting hazy.
Baron is back!
My eyes closed and I tried to clutch but....
'Bayley.....' I heard Sasha and Ember shout before everything was black.
