*4/8/19*
It was the final day of the madness. The Raw after WrestleMania, the fallout of the biggest show of the year, full of surprise debuts and returns. But for Dante it was bittersweet. On one hand he had finally won the Intercontinental Championship, on the other, this was the last Raw him and Liv got to be together before she went with Sarah to Smackdown. As for Liv, she hadn't been told yet. Ruby insisted on waiting until they had their match that night, mainly to avoid Liv from losing her focus.
As she was getting prepared to go out she felt someone hugging her from behind.
- Dante: Ready to go champ?
- Liv: Yeah, it's pretty sad tho, ya know, this is the last time with Rue for a long time, and who knows if we ever get back together - she sounded pretty down
- Dante: I know it sucks
- Dante's mind: And you don't know the other part yet
- Dante: But whatever the future has for you two has to be good. You shined when Rue was out the first time and I'm sure you'll do it again. And about running it back, never say never, and even if you don't she's still your best friend am I right? That won't change no matter what
- Liv: *sighs* I guess you're right
- Dante: Look, if this is the last time might as well enjoy it, so change that Debbie Downer face because nothing good is going to come out of it okay? Now let's focus on the match, you lost sleep over your entrance again? You need something extra as the champ.
- Liv: I couldn't come up with anything, help! - she started acting more like her usual self much to Dante's relief
- Dante: I was going to do this myself but it suits you more - he then whispered into her ear.
- Liv: *giggles* Sounds fun, you sure you don't wanna do it yourself?
- Dante: Nah, I'll come up with something else. Now go, you have a match to win - he kissed her good luck and she left.
- Dante: *whispering* I'm gonna miss you

*In the Gorilla*
- Ruby: Are you ready guys? Let's do this!
- Sarah: Yeah, I can't believe this is the last time
- Liv: Same, but hey, if it's the last one might as well make it great
- Ruby: Couldn't have said it better, let's go

They entered the ramp in a mix of cheers and boos, but mostly cheers, with Sarah piggybacking Liv. Liv got down and started air guitaring her title belt to the amusement of Sarah and Ruby and the crowd. They then got in the ring and Ruby started talking
- Ruby: Remember when we first appeared on Smackdown, and I told you all I had aligned myself with two of the most dangerous woman in the planet? Well, last night, the three of us proved myself right - she slapped both belts as Liv hugged her - and I can guarantee you, wherever they put us, we will continue to dominate and to create chaos
- Liv: We don't care if you're the Divas of Doom, we don't care if you are the IIconics, we don't care if you're Bayley and Sasha, we don't care who is waiting back there we're gonna beat you.....

- Sasha: It's funny you said that Liv, because as far as I'm concerned we were never pinned. And we want a rematch right here right now, right Bay?
- Bayley: I say we put those titles back were they belong
- Sasha: Unless you two - she pointed at Liv and Sarah - are scared of us
- Liv: You're on! - Sarah looked at her with a look that said "what are you doing"

*Highlights of the match*
- Sarah intercepted a Suicide dive from Sasha with a headbutt
- Liv hit both Sasha and Bayley with a Pele kick
- Bayley hit a diving elbow on Sarah on the apron
- Tower of doom spot
- Sasha hit Liv with a meteora but Sarah broke up the pin

*End of the match*
Sasha tried to hit a backstabber on Sarah, but the Backwoods girl managed to land on her feet and stumbled into her corner, where Liv tagged herself in. Sasha went after Sarah but was trapped in a bearhug by the powerhouse of the Riott Squad. Liv then jumped from the corner and hit an assisted 201 codebreaker
1!
2!
3!
- Mike Time: Here are your winners and still the women's tag team Champions: The Riott Squad!
Ruby raised both of her arms in victory as they looked at each other, knowing this was the final time.

*Backstage*
- Sarah: I can't believe it's over
- Liv: Yeah, me neither, we're gonna miss you Rue Rue - she squeezed her
- Ruby: *giggles* I'm gonna miss you too. Who knows, maybe when I'm cleared we can reunite?
- Sarah: Please yes.
At that moment Steph approached them.
- Steph: Great showing girls, you all are going to be missed around here
- Sarah: But only Ruby is out....
- Steph: You don't know yet?
- Liv: Know what?
- Steph: *sighs* Liv, Sarah, you're going to Smackdown, I wish I could do something about it but I don't.
Liv felt like a bucket of cold water had been thrown at her. She stayed quiet as Sarah and Ruby tried to confort her

*In the ring*
Dante had entered to a massive crowd reaction, and the you deserve it chants started just as his music cut.
- Dante: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome, to MONDAY NIGHT WARD

The crowd popped loud again and the you deserve it chants came back
- Dante: I have to admit last night was tough, it was really really tough. But I'm tougher. I still remember standing here talking about how much I had failed and how that was going to make me succeed, well guess what, finally, after all those failures I can look at all of you and say I damn succeeded! - he finished the last line with a smile
- Dante: And you might be thinking, what now? You finally got where you wanted what's next? And that's a question that got me up last night. So I took inspiration in one of my personal favorite Championship reigns of all time and as certain John Cena did in his moment, I'm issuing an open challenge to whoever feels like having a title match and it starts.......NOW!........

The crowd popped as Finn started his eternally long entrance and Dante smiled and started to warm up in the ring
- Dante's mind: This is gonna be fun

*Highlights of the match*
- Dante hit a Michinoku Driver just seconds after the bell rang
- Finn hit a brutal lariat on Dante making him flip in the air
- Dante hit an Air raid Crash from the third rope
- Finn hit a double foot stomp on the apron
- Dante hit a diving moonsault
- Finn hit a 1916 but Dante rolled out of the ring

*End of the match*
Dante had just rolled out to avoid the pin. Finn took a few seconds to get up and started running for a tope con hilo, but those extra seconds he took to rest backfired on him, as he gave Dante time to get back to his feet and jump to the apron. Finn stopped running as there was nobody to jump onto and Dante used that moment to jump over the top rope and hit a 201 facebreaker (a/n: similar to how Johnny Gargano does his apron DDT).
He then ran to a corner and charged up the helluva kick, pointing to the roof with both indexes, but he got too cocky and the pointing transitioned into finger guns pointing at Finn, who countered by basically dropkicking Dante into oblivion mid run and went up for the Coup de Grace, but then the lights went off

Dante was pushed out by Bray in his new persona, and when the lights went back on The Fiend stood staring at a petrified Finn, then attacked him with a mandibule clase causing a DQ

*Backstage*
- Dante: Shit man I almost crapped my pants.
- Finn: *chuckles* yeah me too, gotta admit you outdid yourself Bray
- Bray: The wonders of creative freedom - they all laughed.
Liv them came to Dante all sad
- Finn: We'll leave you two alone now *whispering to Bray* Quick go
They left Dante and Liv alone
- Dante: What's wrong babe?
- Liv: I'm going to miss you so much - she hugged him and started crying
- Dante: So you know now - he hugged her and slid his hand on her pink hair to confort her.
- Liv; It's not fair! First Rue now you, I feel like once things got perfect as they were they changed everything up. It's not fair! - she kept crying
- Dante: Liv babe listen to me, this sucks I know, but at least you're with Sarah, so that's something, and don't worry about me. You're the only girl I am interested in and that won't change. - he hugged her as tightly as he could - I don't know how but we will make this work. I promise.
