Keyra Mysterio(C) Vs Rani Mahal - U.S. Championship / Dimaria & Terra Discuss Future Plans

Rebellion Week 3: Keyra Mysterio defends her U.S. title against Rani Mahal. Daphne Bitorez was also planned to be part of this match, but was taken out backstage and needs medical evaluation before she can be cleared to compete. It is unknown who her assailant is and how they were able to disrupt security footage, but an investigation is underway. Joining Keyra is Estefani, who wants to help ensure Keyra walks out tonight as the U.S Champion. --- Following the end of this match, Sonya, Tanya, Terra, and Dimaria are all backstage in their locker room where Dimaria smiles at her phone as she scrolls through it. Sonya and Tanya are by themselves discussing some things while Terra approaches Dimaria and looks at her for a moment. “So what is the plan going forward? For us I mean…” Terra asks. “Sonya and Tanya could pursue the tag titles again, though their losses did set them back. I could get involved in pursuing Estefani for the I.C. title or Keyra for the U.S. one. Inquinistas got rattled by Jamyra’s loss earlier this week.” Terra says as Dimaria puts her phone down and looks up at Terra. “Sorry, Terr.” Dimaria says as she taps her phone. “I heard you, but I was walking down nostalgia lane. Before there were Inquinistas, or Pure Bloodlines, or DeathHeads… There was Saira, myself, Toni, and Selene. We were THE show. It was… Interesting times.” Dimaria says as she waggles her phone and then sets it down before standing up and looking Terra over. “I thought Saira was done for good. That her last hurrah was when she teamed with Selene and I to face down Lyra’s Anarchist groupies. One of the very few times I helped another because I wanted to. Sure, I did put in a future title shot from Toni as a price, but I’d like to think I’d have still gone along with it. Because for all I knew, it was the last time I’d get to be in a ring with Saira Tarek.” Dimaria says as she laughs and holds her arms out. “And not only is she back. She chose to attack me as her return statement! Not Cassidy. Not Jamyra, Luna, any of the others; me. That hits me here.” Dimaria says as she points to her chest. “I took out Liz Andrews and I thought I was doing the same to Jack.” Dimaria says as she then laughs. “And who could have predicted that Saira fucking Tarek would be the one to stop me!? I was hunting mediocre prey, but now? I have the opportunity to remind the world that there used to be a term used around here known as a ‘Tarek Killer’.” Dimaria says. “Term doesn’t carry the same weight it used to and for understandable reasons… But I could be the one to end Saira Tarek! She chose to go after me and that could only mean that her primary goal for coming back was to defeat me on a grand stage for the world to see! She may be an old dying buzzard, but a symbolic victory like ending The Sapphire Empress is still the exact spark I need! I feel more alive now than I have in a long time, Terra!” Dimaria says as she nods and Terra smiles for a moment before pointing to Sonya and Tanya. “That sounds great, D. From there you can become a world champion again. But you haven’t forgotten us, have you?” Terra asks as Dimara looks at Sonya and Tanya and then back to Terra and sighs before placing a hand on her face. “Of course not. Sonya and Tanya need to rethink their approach. They lost. It’s not just a matter of going at it again; it’s a matter of having a plan. They seem to know that too.” Dimaria says as she sees Nemesis walk in and stand beside Terra. “I’d ask where you’ve been, but your timing is impeccable.” Dimaria says as she smirks. “Saves me the trouble of having to repeat the same message.” Dimaria says as she looks between them. “The Inquinistas… They’ve shown that they’ll probably survive Jamyra’s loss. In fact, I’d argue that Hernando’s taken the reins while Jamyra puts herself back together. That said, there is one mind who’s kept her worst impulses in check. Keyra. I think we should remove her completely. She’s getting old, she’ll never be a world champion, her best days have passed her by, and if she’s no longer there, The Inquinistas will lose their position and we can put ourselves back on top. Terra, all I need you to do is take that U.S. title from her and I’ll handle the rest.” Dimaria says as she pats Terra’s waist. “Nemesis, my big silent sister… I… Actually! I’ve got something special in mind for you. And I know you’ll appreciate it! It might just crack a smile on that stoic face of yours.” Dimaria says as she looks at Terra and picks up her phone and taps it. “See? I can indulge myself and still come up with a plan just like that.” Dimaria says as she walks off, leaving Terra and Nemesis. The pair then look at one another. “Welcome back, Nemesis.” Terra says to which Nemesis pats Terra’s back and walks off to the side as Terra then puts a hand on her waist and imagines the U.S. title on herself and shrugs. “I did ask for her to have a plan and she does.” Terra says as she then smirks.
