I thought it was time for a new story, so here it is XD
Summary – The old team of Paul London and Brian Kendrick re-unite on RAW, with Ashley Massaro as their manager.
Couples – Brian Kendrick/Ashley Massaro, Paul London/Mickie James
NOTE – I know that Brian is on Smackdown, but for the sake of this story, he is on RAW
Brian Kendrick slowly walked though the RAW arena, trying to contain his joy at finally being back on the red side of the WWE roster.
Brian struggled to make friends when he was last on RAW, which made his friendships with Paul London and Ashley Massaro even more special.
Brian approached the door of the men's locker, took a deep breath and stepped inside. He made his way though the crowded locker room, with many superstars choosing to ignore him as he walked past them. Brian eventually found an empty space to sit and placed his bag down on the wooden bench. Brian ran his hand threw his short blonde hair as he began to unpack his bag, that was until a hand tapped him on the shoulder. Brian quickly turned around and a broad smile came across his face when he saw whom it was, his former tag team partner Paul London.
"Hey man, long time no see," Paul said, as the two friends bumped knuckles, the usual way they greeted each other.
"Ye, man, I know" Brian said, still smiling at his best friend.
"But I thought you were on Smackdown" Paul questioned, still slightly shocked at the sight of his best friend.
"I was" Brian began "but I spoke with Mr McMahon, told him I wasn't happy on Smackdown, and he agreed to let me back on RAW, but only on one condition".
"And what's the condition" Paul asked.
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about actually" Brian said, taking a slight pause before continuing "How would you like to be my partner, you know, lets get the old team back together, you, me, Ash".
"Are you serious man," Paul asked.
"Of course" Brian stated.
"Then yes" Paul said "I would be happy to get the old team back together".
"Great" Brian said, with an even broader smile upon his face now.
"So what was the condition" Paul asked curiously.
"Well, Mr McMahon was worried about the tag team division on RAW, so as part of the deal of letting me rejoin RAW, he said I would need to become part of a tag team, and well, you were really the only person I could ask".
"I'm touched," Paul mocked, drawing a little chuckle from Brian.
"This is going to be so awesome" Brian said, "So who stands between us and the tag team titles".
"Well, there is obviously the champions Cody Rhodes and Ted DeBiase Jnr and Cryme Tyme, and that is pretty much it".
"Awesome" Brian grinned "The tag team titles will be ours sooner rather than later".
"Damn right" Paul grinned back, as the two superstars high-fived.
"Anyway buddy, I gotta go, but how about we meet up later to ask for a title opportunity".
"Sounds good" Brian said, "I need to speak to Ash anyway, she was part of the team too".
"Great" Paul said "Meet me outside the GM's office in about 20 minutes".
"Sure" Brian said, as he watched Paul fight his way out of the crowded locker room.
Brian took out his jacket from his wrestling bag, and put it on, before picking up his wrestling bag and forcing his way out of the crowded locker room.
Brian searched the arena, looking for the door that read "Women's locker room". "Chances are Ash will be in here," Brian thought as he approached the women's locker room. Brian took a deep breath and knocked on the locker room door. It was not Ashley that answered the door though; it was in fact Ashley's best friend Mickie James.
"Hi" Mickie said politely "your name is Brian, isn't it".
"Yes" Brian said, smiling back at the brown haired diva.
"Um, is there anything I can help you with" Mickie asked, unsure exactly of why Brian was standing outside the women's locker room.
"Um, well" Brian began nervously, he had always liked Ashley and wanted to be more than friends, but when he finally managed to find the courage to tell Ashley his feelings, Ashley got injured.
"Brian" Mickie said, snapping Brian out of his distracted state.
"Sorry" Brian said "um, is Ashley in there".
"Yes, why" Mickie questioned.
"I need to speak to her about something important," Brian asked, running his hand threw his short blonde hair.
"Alright, just let me go and get her," Mickie said, before shutting the door.
Brian stepped back from the door and leaned against the wall, waiting for Ashley to appear. He did not have to wait long, as the locker room door opened and Ashley stepped out.
"Bri" Ashley shouted happily, as she hugged her former partner.
"Hey Ash" Brian said happily "you look great".
"Aw, thanks" Ashley said, twirling around so Brian could see her whole outfit, drawing chuckles from Brian.
"But I thought you were on Smackdown now" Ashley asked.
"Well, I was, but I asked Mr McMahon if I could move back to RAW, and he said yes" Brian replied.
"That's great Bri" Ashley said, smiling at Brian "Have you spoken with Paul yet".
"Yes, we bumped into each other in the locker room" Brian said.
"That's great Bri" Ashley said "It so great to see you again".
"Thanks" Brian said, "So anyway, I have to ask you something".
"Ask away" Ashley smiled back.
"Well, me and Paul have decided to get the old team back together and make another run at the tag team titles, and well, you were part of the team, what do you say" Brian asked.
"I'm not sure," Ashley said.
"Come on Ash, we had so much fun when we were a team" Brian pleaded.
"Well, I do miss teaming with you two guys" Ashley said "what the hell, sure".
"Thanks Ash" Brian said, lifting the dirty diva off the floor and spinning her around.
"Bri, put me down" Ashley managed to say in-between her giggles. Brian let Ash down, and Ashley slapped him on the arm.
"Ow, what was that for" Brian asked, rubbing the spot on his arm where Ashley had hit him.
"You know I hate it when you do that" Ashley replied, drawing laughs from Brian.
"Anyway, me and Paul are going to see the GM later about a title opportunity, so" Brian said, before Ashley interrupted him.
"And you want me to go with you" Ashley giggled.
"Well, yeah" Brian said.
"Lets go then" Ashley said, holding out her hand.
"Awesome" Brian grinned, as he took Ashley's hand and they both headed down towards the GM's office.

Paul was waiting outside the GM's office when Ashley and Brian came joined him.
"Hey Paul" Ashley said, bringing Paul in for a hug.
"Hey Ash" Paul said, "So I'm guessing that since you're here, you agreed to be our manager".
"Hell yeah" Ashley said, doing her 'rock on' thing.
"Are we ready then" Brian asked, and after getting nods of yes from both Paul and Ashley, he knocked on the door of RAW general manager Mike Adamle.
"Come in" Adamle called out, as Brian opened the door, allowing the 3 superstars entrance into the office.
"Ah yes, Mr Kendrick, Mr McMahon told me you were coming, I would just like to welcome you to RAW" Mike Adamle said, shaking hands with Brian.
"Yeah thanks" Brian said.
"So, is there anything I can do you 3" Adamle questioned
"Well, yes, me and Paul have agreed to get back together as a tag team, and Ashley has agreed to be our manager" Brian said, before he was interrupted by Adamle
"Well that's great, the RAW tag team division needed to be strengthened so I am glad to see a new team," Adamle said
"Mr Adamle" Ashley said, "Me and my boys were wondering, since the tag team champions aren't in a match tonight, if a title match could be arranged".
"I'm sorry Miss Massaro, but I just cant offer title matches to everyone that asks for them, although how about this, next week on RAW, a number one contenders match, London + Kendrick against Cryme Tyme, with the winners facing the tag team champions".
"Awesome" Brian and Paul both said at the same time
"Mr Adamle, we gladly accept" Ashley said happily
"Well that's great, But I'm extremely busy at the moment, so if you don't mind" Mike Adamle said, pointing towards the door
"Of course" Ashley said, leading her boys out of the office "and thanks again Mr Adamle"
Mike Adamle just smiled as the three walked out of the office
"Were back" Brian grinned as Ashley linked arms with Paul and Brian and headed out of the RAW arena
