Trying And Tempting

The Dirt Sheet segment featuring Matt, Braun, Josh, Leah and Mandy was kicking off Smackdown, and as Matt, Amy and Leah met up with Braun and Josh at the arena, they were told what's gonna go down by Hunter.

Hunter: So we have a big plan for the Dirt Sheet tonight. Matt and Mandy are gonna have a face to face confrontation about her remarks made towards Matt and what happened backstage at Money In The Bank. Leah will then come out, and kiss Matt right in front of Mandy, announce the pregnancy, and Miz will then make the challenge for your tag titles, questioning your focus. Me and Steph can take care of Amy, so don't worry about her.

Josh: I take it I'll be at ringside?

Hunter: Yep, as will Mandy. You'll also be making your singles debut tonight against Heath Slater in a squash match. We plan for you to actually have a lot of success, especially in this stable with Matt and Braun. You'll be winning the Intercontinental Championship at Summerslam from Sami Zayn, as we want someone to help bring a little more prestige to the belt.

Josh: Awesome!

After the ring had been set up for the Dirt Sheet segment, Miz and Morrison made their entrance, and took their seats.

Miz: So, tonight's guest is a woman who made her own history at Money In The Bank, as she went through a war with 7 other women to claim the case and be Miss Money In The Bank! Ladies and gentlemen, Mandy Rose!

Out came Mandy, briefcase in hand, but without Sonya as she picked up a serious shoulder injury at a live event, so she was flying solo. She took a seat, next to Morrison, as Braun, Leah, Josh and Matt listened to what she had to say.

Mandy: Well, thank you two for the VIP treatment.

John: Only the best for the best!

Miz: So, what do you have to say concerning your win on Sunday, especially concerning one Matt Watkins?

Mandy: When I won this case, I dedicated it not to the haters, but to the one person who means the world to me, and that's Matt Watkins. So come on out, Matt, cos there's something I want to say to you in front of everyone!

Out came Matt, flanked by Braun and Josh, to his new theme of Evil Ways. He and Braun held up the tag titles before all three of them headed to the ring, standing on the apron.

Matt: You got something to say to me, Mandy? You got one chance to say it right to my face.

Mandy: Why so harsh, Matt? We all know my feelings towards you. I even think I'm falling in love with you.

Matt: Be serious, why do you even think that I would even want to sleep with someone who's only here because of her looks?

Both Josh and Braun tried to contain themselves from Matt's insult.

Mandy: Relax, Matt. You're just blinded by false promises,  but I think there's someone who can change your mind.

Pamela's music then played, and out she came, with her title around her neck. She got in the ring and stared down with Matt, before looking at Mandy with a blank expression and getting a mic.

Pamela: I can't believe you. I honestly cannot believe you.

After a pause, she turned towards Mandy.

Pamela: I can't believe that YOU would try something on my best friend's man. You seriously need a reality check, blondie. There's no way in hell an amazing guy like Matt would EVER want anything to do with you.

Mandy: Trust me, Bayley, I am all he would want and ever need.

As Mandy pushed Bayley aside, she edged ever closer to Matt. By this point Leah had heard enough. She went out to a loud pop, with a face like thunder. She charged to the ring and immediately got in Mandy's face.

Leah: I have just one thing to say to you.

She then slapped the taste out of Mandy's mouth, which sent the Golden Goddess to the floor.

Leah: IF YOU EVER TRY AND MESS WITH MY MAN AGAIN, I WILL MAKE SURE THERE IS HELL TO PAY!!!

She took a deep breath before continuing.

Leah: But beating you up wasn't exactly the entire reason I'm out here. I'm actually here to say... That Matt and I are expecting our first child! If that doesn't tell you to stay away from my man, you blonde bimbo, then nothing will.

Mandy, flanked by Miz and Morrison, was speechless at the remark and scurried away, but not before Miz then offered up a challenge.

Miz: Hey Matt, it seems to me that you're not 100% focused tonight! And Braun, you look like nothing more than a charity case right now! So to prove you are fighting champions, why don't you put your money where your mouth is, and let me and John challenge for those tag team titles of yours?

Matt and Braun looked at each other for a split second before reaching a decision.

Braun: YOU WANT IT? YOU GOT IT! YOU BOTH ARE GONNA GET... THESE... HANDS!

As Braun and Matt gave a belt-five to each other, Pam left the ring while Leah and Josh took their places on commentary, and Mandy sat on the other side of the desk as an interested observer.

Josh: Save it for later, Mella. Right now, just leave her be.

Leah: She has no idea what she's in for.

As the tag title match wore on, Mandy decided to try and provide a distraction. As Matt lined Miz up for a Throwback, Mandy got Matt's attention and shook her ass at him, trying to throw him off. But it didn't work as he then hit the Throwback and tagged Braun in for their double team G-9 move, to get the pin and the win while keeping Morrison at bay to stop him breaking it up.

Greg: Here are your winners and still the Smackdown Tag Team Champions, Matt Watkins and Braun Strowman!

As Mandy got up onto the apron to try another move on Matt, Josh immediately grabbed her, pulled her down and told her to go, while Leah went to join in the celebrations with her man and his tag partner.

Matt: Come on, you didn't seriously expect me to be flirty with her did you?

Leah: Nope, not one bit. I know how faithful you are to me and Amy.

Matt: Speaking of Amy, you should go find her. Me and Braun will stay out here for Josh's match.

As the two kissed in the middle of the ring, Leah then left to check on Amy, and when she found her, she was fast asleep on the sofa in Hunter's office. She couldn't help but raise a smile and kiss her forehead.

Hunter: She's been like that since you went to the ring.

Leah: Wow, that's not normal at all! She went so mad when Matt won on Sunday.

Hunter: So, I take it that with you now being pregnant you'll need some time off.

Leah: Yeah, hope that's okay...

Hunter: Don't you worry. We actually had a plan in place for this should it have happened and now it has.

Leah: Which is?

Hunter: Well, since you're going to be off for a bit, we were hoping you could return in time for Wrestlemania. We plan to have a Championship Unification night, so both the RAW and Smackdown Women's titles will become just the WWE Women's Championship and the same goes for the tag titles, and the Universal & WWE belts. What we'd like from you is to be the special referee for the Women's unification match, whoever the champions are.

Leah: Wow, that's a lot of responsibility. But sure, I'm up for that! Just don't rush me into the title picture straight away, I want some time to be a proper mum first.

Hunter: Don't worry, you leave that with me. Now enjoy your time off, and good luck with the pregnancy.

Leah hugged Hunter before picking up a sleeping Amy and heading to Matt's locker room, where he, Braun and Josh were talking about Josh's match against Heath Slater, which he won in just over a minute.

Matt: Dude, you damn near broke Heath's arm!

Braun: That hold is brutal, how'd you learn to do it?

Josh: Well, I went to a special submission school when I was younger, and that was one of the few I liked.

Matt: And that lucha style of wrestling you have - for a strong guy like you, you make guys like Kalisto and Mustafa Ali look like weasels.

Josh: Believe it or not, I used to be even bigger! I was damn near 300 a few years ago, but i focused on working out as well as gaining more muscle, and I'm now a solid 255.

Braun: Wow, you've gotta teach me your ways!

Leah then cleared her throat, getting the men's attention.

Leah: Sorry to interrupt boys, but me and my man have to go, as this one is out cold!

They all shared a laugh before Matt gave a fist bump to both Josh and Braun.

Matt: I'll see you guys on Tuesday for the live event - was told that we're in a 6 man tag against Miz, Morrison and Zayn!

Braun: Look forward to it, bro!

Josh: Later buddy!

As Matt took hold of a sleeping Amy, he and Leah made their way to the car, where Mandy was waiting.

Leah: Oh god, what does she want?

Matt: Relax, I've got this.

Leah watched as Matt gave her Amy and then made his way towards Mandy, curious as to what would happen.

Mandy: There you are! I thought you'd already left!

Matt: Well I haven't so what do you want?

Mandy: You. Me. A date tomorrow night.

He just raised his eyebrow at her in response.

Matt: Okay, it plainly wasn't clear what I said in the ring, so let me lay it out once again. You clearly have grown so obsessed with me that you are under the impression that you're in love with me and I'm in love with you. But that's not true. You see, me and Leah are the ones in love, while you are just obsessed. You will find the guy for you, Mandy, but I'm not it. Besides, with a daughter to look after and a baby on the way, to be brutally honest with you, I have no time for you. End of.

As Mandy then left on the brink of tears, Leah was struck with awe as to what Matt had said.

Leah: In all my time here in the WWE, I've never seen Mandy cry like she just did! And you come along and manage it just like that!

Matt: What can I say? Your man has his way with words!

Leah: Good to know!

Matt: So, what do you say we head home, cos I don't know about you, but I'm knackered after tonight!

Leah: Yeah, I second that. Plus I'm pretty sure this little one would rather sleep in her own bed rather than on her mum's shoulder!

She stopped for a split second, before realising what she had just said.

Leah: Did I just call myself Amy's mother?

Matt was also in shock.

Matt: Yeah, you did. But it's okay, because as far as I'm concerned, you are her mum. She needs a mother figure in her life now Katie isn't here, and you're the perfect woman for the job. Not Mandy or anyone else.

Leah shed a few tears at what Matt said.

Matt: And trust me, wherever Katie is up there, I'm sure she's looking down on us and smiling because of the responsibility that's been put on you.

As soon as Leah had buckled Amy into the back seat, she rushed to the passenger seat and kissed Matt for all she was worth.

Leah: You have no idea how happy I am to hear that. It really means a lot to me, especially now we have a little one of our own to worry about soon.

Matt just stared and smiled at her as he started the car and drove back home. When they had put Amy to bed properly, a shining figure appeared in the window, which was Katie.

Katie: I'm proud of you, Matt. And you, Leah. Be good parents for your baby, because I know you already are for Amy.
