Randall Keith Orton was a competitor, he was more than that he was a champion, the youngest world heavyweight champion in history, yet recently he had not been in the WWE title hunt, it was frustrating but he knew that he would get a chance in good time if he was given the chance, it was also probably due to the fact that he had been suspended marijuana early in the year after wrestlemania 22 which meant that he had spent a lot of time watching other talent, sure he wanted to be the champion but he also got how the business worked. They wanted to push Cena and Adam Copeland, Edge together; Randy got that and both men where both his friends, the pair didn't really get on with each other yet Randy had been on Smackdown with John in his early career and then he had been on Raw with Adam since 2004. However what he was expected to do in the match that he was in tonight was something that he didn't really want to do. He was expected to hit Trish Stratus with an RKO. Now sure Trish was a strong woman but Randy had never really liked the idea of hitting women, he had grown up with a sister and his father had always told Randy never to hit his sister, sure there where a couple of teasing tickle fights and the like but Randy had been raised the right way.
That was something that the fans had not seen; sure he was a prick, he was rude to the fans and he had been a good heel, if you asked him to beat the hell out of Paul Levesque better known as Triple H or Michael Hickenbottom better known as Shawn Michaels, yet to actually lay hands on a woman was something that Randy had not been comfortable with ever, yet he was being asked to do it. Apparently the idea had been suggested by someone on the creative writing team, from what he had heard from Adam it was almost like something that Vince Russo would have written in the late 90's where the Dudley boys had been power bombing women through tables over the years. Randy had expressed to Adam and John on individual occasions and both agreed that it was not a good idea, yet Randy had wanted to go to Vince and tell the boss that he didn't want to do it. Vince always seemed willing to listen and the fact that talent didn't want to do something that they didn't want to do.
Weirdly Amy Dumas better known as Lita and Trish's best friend back stage had told Randy that Trish would be pissed if she had been given preferential treatment, of course many backstage knew that it wasn't preferential treatment. The best person to ask about it would have been Stacy Kiebler. In 2005 Stacy had taken an RKO in the centre of the ring as Randy had sent a message to the undertaker, however that had been meant to happen at the beginning of the storyline, Randy wasn't happy about it but Stacy had been willing to go with it and it was the fact that she had told Randy she wouldn't respect him if he didn't do it because of the fact that it meant that he thought that she wouldn't be able to take the move and that he saw her as weak. However thankfully Randy had been able to convince John and Carlos Colon better known as Carlito with another idea for how the match could end, even Adam and Amy agreed to it, the only person that didn't was Trish.
In the ring Adam and John where fighting around the ring, Trish had the chick kick cocked waiting on Amy and this was where Randy was meant to hit the RKO on Trish, whilst the referee wasn't looking. Now truthfully there was another reason why Randy didn't want to hit the RKO on the blonde that was currently looking very hot whilst she waited to be planted onto her beautiful face. The fact was Randy Orton had feelings for Trish Stratus, he did when he had met her in 2002 when he had started in the WWF/E even though he went into a storyline with Stacy he did have a crush on Trish. However when he went to Raw he was paired with evolution, granted that might not have been seen as a problem but Paul and Trish where friends, Batista thought that she was a slut, given how he treated on his wife with Melina that was something that seemed prophetic now and Randy was just glad that the former world champion hadn't slept with Trish. Yet due to the relationship with evolution he didn't get to see much of Trish, then he was drafted to smackdown to have the storyline with the undertaker. Something that he saw as the honour that it was, yet at the same time he would have rather been in an angle with Trish so that their small friendship had the chance to grow into something else if it was going to do so. John and Adam both knew, Amy who was dating Adam knew of the fact and even Carlos who had an on screen kiss with Trish knew, yet he had not been surprised when Randy had threatened him with death when he had thought that Carlos had feelings for Trish.
As Randy edged closer to Trish, Amy walked out of the corner meaning that Trish chick kicked her to make it look real after all if she didn't kick her opponent it would look weird, however when she turned to get RKO'd Carlos pulled Randy down and they rolled out of the ring like the had planned, Trish looked confused but both John and Carlos told her to pin Amy. Trish did as instructed but she got the feeling that she was going to have a LONG talk with Randall Keith Orton when they got behind that curtain. Randy was the last one to go into the back because he had a dark match with Adam against John and Carlos which he won by hitting Carlos with the RKO. However when he walked back stage he was not surprised to see Trish Stratus waiting on him.
"What the hell was that Randy?" she said as Randy had been walking past her, as he seemed to ignore her she reached out and grabbed his wrist. "Why did you guys deviate from the script, you where meant to hit me with the RKO."
Her face was stubborn, the blonde looked as hot as hell and Randy had to admit that there was no denying that; the fact was he knew Trish wasn't a natural blonde, he had seen her with darker hair, he had to admit that she looked hot with both light and dark hair, however he would say that she looked better with darker hair simply only because of the fact that it was her natural colour and it didn't look like it was fake. Not that he thought that she was fake but she did look better as her own person and not with a hair colour that she needed it to be for the camera, therefore it was showing more of her personality, so the fact that she was standing there, sweating profusely, her hair a mess and her chest heaving. Needless to say Randy was having not that much luck not thinking about the smaller woman beneath him whilst she looked how she did.
"I dunno what you are talking about Trish," Randy said pulling his arm out of her reach "I am going for a shower I suggest that you do as well." He was actually thinking of going and having a cold shower because of the fact that quite simply because of the fact that his trunks didn't hide anything and he was sure that he was going to have an erection if he kept looking at Trish and thinking of her in that way.
"You where meant to RKO me," she repeated her arms crossing over her chest her breasts rising slightly, Randy doubted that she knew that but he was determined not to look, looking down at the floor which of course made it look like he was guilty but in fact he was slightly guilty because of the fact that he knew that Trish would want to take the move yet he had been hesitant to do it to her. "Look Randy I am not going to make a big thing out of this but I have just one pay-per-view left, unless Vince and Steph trick me into signing that new contract not that I don't want to leave but I am tempted to leave, not that I want to still be here especially if I am going to get the title, but if you keep changing the end to my matches I might just leave."
Randy sighed at this, he knew that if he was the reason that the legendary Trish Stratus left the business he knew that he was going to get his ass kicked by the likes of John and Adam because of the fact that they all liked her, he liked her also but the fact was he just didn't want to drop her with the RKO because he wasn't that type of guy, not that he would have argued with Adam if he had speared Trish but he just didn't like the idea of harming a woman himself.
"Look Trish we can talk about it later ok?" he said "but I really need a shower once I have done that then we can talk about it to your heart's content." Then the tall athlete left the woman that was currently not happy with him. Trish then walked down to the WWE and Women's champion's locker room knocking on the door loudly before walking in as the door was unlocked.
"What the hell was that?" she said to her best friend and her best friend's boyfriend. "Why did you let that piece of crap change the end of the match, I mean where you all in on it other than me?"
"Yes we did," Amy said softly "but Trish he isn't doing it because he doesn't think you are weak it is because of the fact that he doesn't like fighting women."
"But he has RKO'd women before," Trish defended "Like Stacy and Mae."
"Those where for storylines Trish." Adam said defending his friend "look we don't know the whole story of what is going on inside that boys head we just hang out, if you wanna know what he is up to you are best asking him."
"You know what I think I will," she said turning and leaving the room going in search of Orton.
