Chapter 10: Fifty percent
MONDAY NIGHT
Raw kicked off with General Manager Vickie Guerrero in the ring and it seemed she had something to say.
"EXCUSE ME!!!"
The fans booed her presence.
"EXCUSE ME!!!"
They kept on booing her as she just went on with her announcement.
"Last night I made the grudge match between Randy Orton and Xander Cage a number one contender's match and the result was both men were unable to continue and therefore we have no number one contender." Vickie explained.
"However there…
No chance in hell hit as the familiar music of the WWE Chairman Vince McMahon who then made his way out and strutting down the ramp with his trademark power walk as he entered the ring and asked for a mic.
"Mister McMahon…sir what a pleasant surprise!!!" Vickie said sucking up to the boss.
"Well thank you Vickie I did want my appearance tonight to be a surprise and also to tell you personally that last night's match between Orton and Cage was a show stealer!!! And even offering the number one contender's spot to the winner…quite a bold move there." Vince said.
"Thank you sir and if you thought that was good I would like to announce that at the Bash in three weeks it will be Triple H defending the WWE Championship in a Championship challenge!!!" Vickie announced with the crowd going crazy for that match.
"Now that sounds like an excellent match, but Vickie I came here tonight to make two announcements…
The crowd was buzzing about this.
"First off, Vickie Guerrero as of late you have been showing no regard for the rules, regulations, superstars or even myself." Vince said with a glare as Vickie tried to suck up to him.
"And with that said effective immediately Vickie Guerrero….YOU'RE FIRED!!!" Vince shouted as Vickie was shocked.
The crowd was going wild as Vickie broke down and began screaming her head off in rage.
"YOU CAN'T FIRE ME…I QUIT!!!" Vickie shouted as she dropped the mic and left in a huff.
"Alright now for the second announcement is that fifty percent of Raw has been bought." Vine announced.
Everyone in the arena and all of us in the back were in shock as we had a fifty percent mystery owner of Raw.
"I would like to introduce the fifty fifty owner as your new General Manager, Ladies and Gentlemen, this man is like myself a businessman, a former WWE superstar and one of the longest reigning champions in history...I give to you the fifty percent owner of Raw, John Bradshaw Layfield!!!" Vince announced.
Longhorn hit and out came our new fifty percent owner of Raw and GM, JBL!!! His longhorn white limo was out as his driver went to the back and opened the door as it revealed the GM himself, toothy grin, cowboy hat and all as he made his way to the ring and got in and shook the hand of his fifty fifty partner as he left and JBL got a mic.
"Thank you…Thank you…It's great to be back on Monday Night Raw!!!" JBL announced.
The crowd was booing the Texan as he just smiled and went back to his speech.
"Now before you all think I'm here to get all high and mighty…I am not!!! I am here for one reason…to make Raw better and to be the dominant brand in this company!!!" JBL stated as some cheering was actually heard through the booing.
"So as my first act as General Manager and fifty fifty owner of Raw, I am letting the championship challenge happen and the two men who went through one of the most barbaric brawls I have ever seen last night will be in the championship challenge!!!" JBL announced as the crowd popped to that.
"And tonight there will be to matches for entry into the challenge as first it will be The Heart Break Kid, Shawn Michaels vs. The Largest athlete in the world, The Big Show!!! And a twenty man battle royal for the final spot in the challenge!!!" JBL announced as more cheering came his way.
It was a night of shockers, Vickie Guererro was gone, JBL was in and I was getting a WWE Championship match with Orton in it!!!
LATER ON
I was in the back resting from last night as me and Orton were not aloud to compete until next week. But hey I already know I'll be getting a visit from my Diablo champion as I heard the door open and was getting ready for…her brothers who were both looking as battered as me.
"How's the back man?" Jeff asked smacking it hard.
"Owwww!!! Been better." I whined.
"Guess you have." Matt said hitting it again.
"Owww!!! Stop that!!!" I said.
"We heard that our baby sister has a boyfriend." Matt said.
"Oh really I didn't…know…that." I said trying to act surprised.
"And funny thing is we heard it's you." Jeff said as both brothers gave me the look.
"Uh well…I…she…we…my mind's a blank." I said in defeat.
"When exactly were you planning on telling us?" Matt asked.
"Uh…well I was…
As then Aeon walked in with her newly won Divas Championship on her shoulder as she saw us.
"Hey bros, Shmuck!!!" Aeon said.
"Uh Audrey…they know." I said.
"They know?" Aeon said a bit confused.
"They…know…about…
"Oh that, well no point hiding it anymore!!!" Aeon said going over to me and sitting next to me and kissing me in front of her elder brothers who were really pissed with me now.
"We were gonna say how but I'm just stumped." Jeff said.
"It just happened ok and anyway if your gonna kill me, you have to go through her first!!!" I said.
"And I said it's not my problem if they kill you." Aeon said as she just let them do it.
I was now trapped and had nowhere to run or hide…I was so screwed.
"Relax we're not gonna kill you, we just wanted to see if you were good enough for her." Matt said reassuring me.
"Just one thing…you break her heart we break your legs!!!" Jeff stated.
"Hear ya loud and clear." I said.
"With that said, come here XMan!!! "Aeon said as we locked lips again.
LATER ON
So far I now know joining us in the challenge will be The Big Show after he KO'd The Heart Break Kid with that massive right hand, he will be a force to be reckoned with in the challenge.
But the biggest shocker was the battle royal as it was then down to two men Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase. Both Legacy members have been partners since 2007 and now they both knew each other so well as one tried to out smart the other but in the end this was DiBiase's night as he eliminated his partner to get his spot in the challenge.
Rhodes came back in to congratulate his partner showing his support for him as now Legacy had a two out of five chance of walking out with the title.
"Congratulations son, you have a earned a shot at greatness in three weeks but what I would like to do right now is ask for all the participants to come out to the ring right now!!!" JBL said as he went to the ring to await the rest of us.
I hear voices in my head, they council me, they understand, they talk to me…
Voices hit as the mentor and leader of Legacy made his way out, limping his way down the ramp and wearing battle scars of our match last night as he slowly made his way into the ring with DiBiase helping him in as then Orton exchanged looks with one of his protégés and shook his hand in respect.
Bleed it out hit and I also limped out showing my battle wounds from last night as I slowly made my way down the ramp, I slowly made my way into the ring and as me and Orton locked eyes on one another and DiBiase was holding his leader back as I dared him to take another crack at me.
WWWWWeeeeelllll, it's the Big Show!!! Crank it up hit as the seven foot giant made his way out, he just walked down the ring and stepped over the ropes as we were all a bit intimidated by this monster as he eyed us all.
The Game hit as the WWE Champion, The Game, The Cerebral Assassin, The King of Kings himself made his way out with his WWE title on his shoulder as he made his way down the ring and as he got on the apron did his signature pose and spat the water out as he entered the ring holding up the title to us all as we all looked at it.
"Ok gentlemen, for a starters I would like to…
He was interrupted as the mic was covered by the champion.
"Uh before you say anything I would like to say a few words for my opponents." Hunter said.
As JBL gave him the mic and stood aside for a while to hear what he had to say.
"Okay after a gruelling title defence last night, I've now have to defend against four other guys in three weeks at The Bash." Hunter said.
The crowd cheered him.
"But as I look around this ring I see my opponents and well some I know." he said as he looked to Big Show.
"Some I've beaten up." he said looking to DiBiase.
"Some I've called a whiney little girl." he said looking to Orton as the crowd popped to that statement.
"And some I've been waiting to face." he said looking to me as I gave the same look back to him.
"But as I always say, I am the man, I am the WWE Champion and I am that damn good!!!" Hunter stated holding up his title.
"Do you ever get tired of saying the same thing Hunter? I mean we all know you're the man…for now but just imagine this fist scrambling your brains and I take that WWE title from you like I should've done last night if it wasn't for your buddy and you ganging up on me I would be the champion!!!" Show said.
"That's true big man but still you got pinned and once again flat on your back." Hunter said as Show was a bit ticked off being reminded of that.
"If you're both done insulting one another, then I would like to make my statement."DiBiase interrupted them.
"You see as this will be my first time competing for a World Championship, I know that most of you will underestimate me but believe me I wouldn't, I don't care who I pin even if I have to pin Randy here!!!" DiBiase stated looking to his mentor who went to speak next.
"Even though I admit Ted is right, we will be working as a unit but when it comes down to us both I guarantee one of us will be walking out with the title as the Age of Legacy will begin!!!" Orton stated.
"OOOOkay then I guess I should say something clever, followed by some insults about your mothers, then we all get into a massive argument, followed by a huge brawl and ending up with most of you out of the ring and with your tail between your legs!!!" I joked.
The crowd popped as I made a joke of what usually happens in a promo each time.
"Cage, I don't know why you think this is all a joke to you but I think you got your brains scrambled after that chairshot you took off me!!!" Orton gloated.
"Yeah I would say that but Randy I think the chairshot I gave you didn't straighten your head out, I mean are ya still hearing those voices?!" I came back.
"I'm sick of you Cage…I'm sick of hearing you, your entrance, your merchandise and especially your attiude…you are not in my league!!!" Orton spat at me.
"Then why are we just standing here?" I said throwing down the challenge as I took my shirt off exposing the bandages of last night's battle.
Orton went for it but DiBiase began to hold him back as he was getting feral and wanting to finish what we started last night.
"Dam kid, I thought I got Randy worked up after I beat his ass when he won his first world title, but you just took it to another level, I mean he's actually frothing at the mouth, you might wanna consider getting him his shots at the vet Ted." Hunter said as the crowd laughed at that.
"You know what you're all insane but I guarentee all of you will be demolished by the end of the match and I hold the WWE title over all of your broken corpses!!!" Show stated showing his gigantic fist.
"Well that's all fine and dandy big man but what if I produce a small friend of mine and smash all your skulls in and prove to all of you why I am The Cerebral Assasin and The King of Kings!!!" Hunter stated.
"So we have a King, a Giant, a Ladyboy and a whiney little girl all vying to be champion, well I got my work cut out for me as I've made you tap out on the grandest stage of them all!!!" I said directed at Orton who was still being held back by DiBiase.
"I choked you out and decimated your man pal." I said directed at DiBiase who just tried to ignore me.
"Uh you I haven't beaten yet but I'll get on that." I said to Show.
"And then we've got the champ, I know we did clash I that battle royal but it was a draw so I guess I'll have to wait until The Bash but until then…
I flew at DiBiase and Orton, Hunter went after Show as fists were flying, Orton already bolted from the ring as I hammered away on DiBiase and just clotheslined him to the outside.
Hunter and Show were fighting as Show got in some fists he went for a spear but missed and was met with a huge face buster which he stumbled into a backflip kick and turned to The Game who kicked him In the mid section and hooked his arms in and nailed a devastating Pedigree.
We both then motioned to Orton and Dibiase to come get some but they both backed up the ramp in retreat as me and the champion came face to face as he held the belt up to our faces as I looked to it as Raw went off the air.
LATER ON
Me and Aeon made it back to the hotel and were now alone as we just lied down on the bed and were making out.
"Owww, mph…Oww…mph…Owww!!!" I said in between breaths.
"Still hurting? I thought the Vicodin would've kicked in by now?" Aeon said concerned.
"It's ok just taking more time to do so, are they still mad at me?" I asked.
"A little but they'll get over it, it's just after last time they're worried about." Aeon said.
"Last time?" I asked out of curiosity.
"I…I…
"It's okay don't say anything." I said as we cuddled.
I could tell it was a sensitive subject for her and I didn't want to pry so I left it unearthed.
MONDAY NIGHT
The show kicked off with the new fifty percent owner and General Manager of Raw JBL, he was in the ring and had something to say.
"Thank you for your appreciation." JBL said as the crowd was in a mixed reaction fot the Texan.
"Now I came out here tonight to make a couple of announcements, first off the United States title is on the line when Kofi Kingston will defend against The Miz and The Heart Break Kid, Shawn Michaels!!!" JBL announced.
The crowd popped to that as JBL had the toothy grin on him.
"And finally I would like to…
I hear voices in my head, they council me, they understand they talk to me…
Voices hit as Orton and Legacy came out and interrupted our GM's announcement as they walked down to the ring with purpose as Orton was in the ring he had a mic.
"So you're only here on Raw to make things better? Bradshaw the only thing you've done right is give me and Ted here title shots but it seems you've also handed them out to a giant and an amatuer!!!" Orton said.
JBL did not look intimidated at all as Orton went on.
"However you did make a good choice in selecting myself and a future world champion, Ted DiBiase!!!" Orton stated.
Rhodes then got a mic. "I don't think you've been noticing but two weeks ago I pinned Kofi Kingston in a tag match and again in a one on one match, I want in on that U.S. championship match…make it happen!!!" Rhodes demanded.
JBL now looking insulted just had to open his mouth. "Son don't forget who you're talking to and yes I have noticed but remember…rookie this is a business and everyone has to earn their spots so if you want in on that match then you can face Kofi Kingston tonight and if you win your in." JBL announced.
"And also tonight Ted, you will be in action against…The Big Show!!!" JBL announced.
As DiBiase was flipping out over that.
"But also next week it will be Randy Orton versus….Xander Cage!!!" JBL said.
"Oh and by the way it will be a steel cage match." JBL added as the arena exploded with that blockbuster main event for next week.
LATER ON
"Ladies and gentlemen please welcome my guest at this time…Xander Cage!!!" Josh Mathews introduces.
"Hey Josh." I said.
"Xander after what our GM announced it will be next week you versus Randy Orton once again but it will be in a steel cage match." Josh said.
"Yes Josh it will be and I am fired up for this, ever since Extreme Rules all I've thought about was getting my hands on that Viper…Randy Orton, next week you and I will be locked inside a solid steel cage, nowhere to run nowhere to hide, I'm gonna make sure you don't go into the chapionship challenge unscathed!!!" I stated.
I walked off set as then I ran into the man who will be defending his title against me and three other challengers.
"I heard about your match next week, if you could do me a favour and smack Orton around for me and just out of saying if it's down to you and me in two weeks at the Bash I will guarentee I'm not gonna just roll over for ya!!!" Hunter said.
"I know you're The Gane, The Cerebral Assasin, The King of Kings!!! I know I can beat you cos I'm The XMan, , The Xancotik one and I will prove it at The Bash!!!" I stated.
I just walked away from the champ as I went off to find my lady.
I found her as she just finished a match and we were both sitting down as we watched Rhodes defeat Kofi and earn his spot in the U.S. title match.
I looked at her and she seemed to have something on her mind.
"I know that look means something's up." I said.
"It's about last Saturday, I know I didn't mean it's just it's been a while for me…I really do wanna but…
"Babe…I don't care, whatever's bothering you please you can tell me anything." I said holding her hands.
"It's just it happened three years ago, you want the short version or the long one?" Aeon asked.
"I got all night." I said.
"It started after a house show in Japan…
So JBL is in charge?! He now has a chance at becoming WWE Champion, but he has a Viper in a cage to deal with and what will Aeon reveal about her past?
What you think? Reviews please!!!
