AJ and Kaitlyn's fractured friendship: photos
Not so long ago, AJ and Kaitlyn became best friends while competing on WWE NXT ...
... a bond that continued as they became full-fledged WWE Divas.
Together, they compete as a tag team known as The Chickbusters.
With guidance from third-generation Diva Natalya ...
... the off-beat beauties grow both in the ring and out.
They help each other in defeat ...
... and celebrate in wacky fashion when things go right.
Although the pair doesn't compete together as much once AJ begins to date Daniel Bryan ...
... they remain very close.
Then, on the April 20 episode of SmackDown, Bryan tells his now ex-girlfriend AJ ...
... that he wishes she'd "never been born."
The "Geek Goddess" is devastated by the breakup, and as the WWE Universe would soon find out ...
... the Diva will take her anger out on those closest to her.
An emotionally distraught AJ snaps in her match against Natalya ...
... before leaving a hysterical mess.
On April 27, Kaitlyn would feel her former friend's wrath, as well.
When Kaitlyn tries to tell her friend that Daniel Bryan was being a jerk ...
... AJ wants no part of the discussion and lashes out at Kaitlyn, slapping her right across the face!
A shocked Kaitlyn is left speechless.
On the following SmackDown, when AJ apologizes ...
... Kaitlyn is willing to talk.
But when Bryan's name is brought up, AJ repeats her actions from a week ago ...
... slapping Kaitlyn again, this time knocking her to the floor!
Tensions between the former friends reach a breaking point on the May 11 episode of SmackDown ...
... as the former tag team partners face off in match.
Completely unhinged, AJ dominates her former BFF ...
... taking out all her anger and aggression on a still stunned Kaitlyn.
It's safe to say that, as long as AJ remains out of control ...
... this friendship is officially over.
