Sellouts
Sometimes, people have to go to extreme measures to find out the truth...
WWE Extreme Rules
Izod Center
East Rutherford, New Jersey
After Colby Lopez got his ring attire on, he went on a search for his friend Daphne Consuelos. He really wanted to talk about what he saw this past Monday on RAW. Daphne walking into Dave Batista's locker room. What was that all about? Did anything happen inside there? The thought of Daphne being violated by the man who has a reputation for discarding women was eating him alive. He couldn't let Daphne be one of those girls. If he could have, he would have stormed into the locker room and prevented that from happening; however, he knew that Daphne was smart enough to know from right to wrong.
[Flashback—seven years ago]
A seventeen year old Daphne Consuelos was crying backstage after a wrestling event in Detroit. It was summer vacation and she had been going out with this one guy for about six months. She thought that this guy personally cared about her, but was she more wrong than ever? Why did her parents trust her with this guy alone? Why did she not take their advice to stay away from this guy? Her own fucking parents warned him about this guy!
"Daphne." Colby came rushing to her aid after his match was over. Daphne had hid in his locker room ever since the altercation with her boyfriend. There was no way that she was going to let the guy violate her that way. She didn't feel right about the moment. Daphne did not want to be like those other girls and put themselves out in the open like that. Colby kneeled right in front of Daphne, who refused to show her face, "Daphne, please look at me. Did he hurt you? Did Isaac hurt you?" he asked with so much worry in her voice.
Daphne kept crying, "I wouldn't do it with him—I wouldn't have sex with him. So, he—"her crying was too powerful as she couldn't complete the sentence and Colby hugged her as she used his shoulder to cry on. Colby had feared for the worst about her, "I hate him! I fucking hate him! I hate myself!"
"Don't say that about yourself. I think that Daphne is an awesome girl that doesn't deserve that treatment from a guy at all. You don't need to complete that sentence if you don't want to. I am here for you, Daphne," he placed his hand to her cheek, stroking it, "I'll protect you from the very end."
[Flashback Ends]
"I will always protect you." Colby muttered under his breath, reminding himself of the flashback. After he was done thinking about that, he knocked on the door that lead to the Divas locker room. The door opened as Saraya or Paige stood on the other side. The two of them do go back to FCW and they've teamed with each other in the past.
"Hello, Colby. Are you looking for Daphne?" Saraya spoke in her thick English accent. She was already dressed her in purple ring attire with the Divas Championship on her shoulder as she looked back to search for the Ultimate Diva.
"Yeah, I need to talk to her. Is she in there?" Colby asked her as Saraya continued to look inside.
"Yeah, I think she's inside. You can come in, all the women are dressed," she informed Colby as he nodded, she then turned back to the other Divas inside the locker room, "We've got a guy coming inside so be decent!" Saraya warned them all as she opened the door to grant Colby access.
Colby looked inside and the only Divas in the locker room were Saraya, Tamina, Brie and Daphne, who had just gotten into her ring attire for the match. Daphne was wearing a black cross front crop top and black leather pants. There was a part of Colby that loved that she was embracing The Shield's colors for tonight. Black was a very sexy on her, but there was another part of him that wanted his questions answered.
"Colby," Daphne approached him, "What are you doing here?" she asked confused. It was unusual to see him in the Divas locker room because he was never in their locker room. It wasn't like she would be in his locker room. Colby looked at the other Divas and it was obvious from his stare that he wanted them all to leave. He didn't need to ask them vocally as they received his message, "Am I in trouble?" she asked sarcastically.
"Yes," he responded, "I want to know about what was up with you and Dave on RAW this past week?" Colby asked straight forward as Daphne stared at him in disbelief. How the hell did he know that? "I saw the two of you going into his locker room? What went on inside there?"
"Why does it matter? It's none of your business what I did with him?" Daphne defended herself. There was nothing about her and Dave's confrontation that was so horrible. She didn't get why Colby was so concerned about, "Why are you so concerned about me?"
"I was scared for you!" Colby shouted as the whole locker room became silent. The silence was eating the both of them alive because they didn't know how to respond to the other, "I knew that you were violated in the past. I didn't want that to happen to you now. With Isaac..." he stopped what he was saying as Daphne got angry and looks down to her boots.
Daphne looked back at him, "Isaac made me the woman that I am today. If it weren't for what he did to me, I'd be a spineless woman. Let's just say that he is the reason why I'm a ubber bitch today." she smiled at him, "I did nothing like that with Dave, we had a look at the script, but nothing else."
"Look Daphne, I'm sorry about throwing accusations at you. I knew that you would be smart about this stuff. How about I take you out? You and me." Colby offered. This was his attempt to asking Daphne out on a date. He just hoped she would accept it. Daphne giggled at him. She wasn't sure how to respond to the request. Was Colby asking her on a date?
"Like on a date?"
Colby chucked awkwardly, scratching the back of his neck, "Only, if you want to. No pressure." he stared at Daphne. There was no telling what her answer could be. This is what scared him. If he were to get rejected by his best friend, it would not only embarrass him, but break his heart. These two went back for so long, but he would still love Daphne no matter what.
Daphne grinned, "Um, yes. I would love to."
"Dave Batista makes me sick."
Jonathan Good growled at himself as Joe Anoa'i and Brianna "Brie" Danielson looked at Dave Batista putting the moves on Renée Paquette. Jon looked at Renée, giggling and talking to The Animal. He did not like that at all. The only person in the WWE that should be putting the moves on Renée was Jon himself. No other man could compare to the ways of the Lunatic Fringe of The Shield. Besides, he needed to talk to Renée. He had recently learned about the ESPN deal that she had received from Daphne. Jon hoped that she wouldn't take the opportunity or she would get hit on by athletes all the time.
"Nikki said to me that he was putting the moves on Daphne at RAW. That pig!" Brie shivered in disgust. Thank God, she is able to say that she was a married woman or she might end up being hid on by that horrible man that is known for discarding women.
"He was. Colby was so pissed about it. He saw Dave leading Daphne into his locker room. I don't know for what, but it can't be good. You might need to put a stop to it or you might watch Renée being led inside his locker room after Extreme Rules." Joe warned Jon as he thought about what to approach Renée about. There was no interview with each other, but he could do the cockblock method that he had done with Daphne and Colby in the locker room. Now that he thought about it, it could be tons of fun to do that sort of thing.
So, Jon started to walk.
"...Perhaps, if you're not busy." Dave began to ask Renée, but was interjected when Jon entered the discussion. Jon wrapped an arm around Renée's shoulders as she blushed at the gesture. Dave didn't like what Jon did, by the look in his eyes, but Jon found himself not caring at all.
"Renée, I have a question that I need to ask you. I was wondering if you can help me with something?" Jon asked Renée respectfully as he made sure to look back at Dave, "You don't mind right?" he asked him, pretending that he felt bad about stealing Renée from him.
"Nah, it's fine. See you in the ring, Ambrose." Dave walked away, trying not to get angry.
Once Jon and Renée were alone, he began to talk, "Listen, I've heard things about you and this ESPN deal and I was wondering when you were going to tell your friends?" Jon did not want to be around the bush. This approach was similar to the approach that Colby had done with Daphne. Renée bit her lip and face palmed herself. She didn't want the news of this deal going out like this. She has been meaning to tell everyone, but she was hesitant that this would lead to this giant argument. She wanted to personally tell Daphne the night after WrestleMania, but she was so hurt about April ending the friendship that she did not want to weigh the news onto her.
"Jon, I've meant to tell you about this news. I was going to inform you all of this deal as soon as I made my decision about it." Renée informed him as calm as possible, but Jon was to upset to hear anything that came out of her mouth.
"Did you take the opportunity?" Jon asked her, expecting her to say yes. This was the last thing that he wanted to know; however, this was going to make Renée into something that she has always dreamed of being. Who was he to stand in the way of her happiness?
"Jon, I have dreams. One of those dreams is to become the first female commentator in the WWE. You don't understand how much passion I have for this business. This is my dream job and I am not putting myself on the line to live it. What woman does not get to say that nowadays? A woman like me would be crazy not to take that opportunity though..." Renée trailed on as Jon died a little in the inside. This was the last thing that he wanted to hear about.
"So, you took the job?" Jon concluded with no emotion in his voice.
Renée smiled and hugged Jon in the tightest way possible; happily, not squeezing him to death, "Oh, Jon, a woman like me is crazy though..." she responded back.
The bell rings, "This match is a Hardcore Match and it's scheduled for one fall! This match is no disqualification, no count outs! The only way to win is by pinfall or submission," Lillian Garcia explains as 'You Can Look, But You Can't Touch' plays throughout the arena. Brie Bella comes out in her black ring attire with red dragon symbols around her while the crowd cheers, "Introducing first, from Scottsdale, Arizona, Brie Bella!" Brie looks determined stepping into the match. She knows that it will take a lot more than WrestleMania to come out of the match as a winner. Brie looks at the ring and sees the trashcans tied up at the corners of the ring. Inside, there are kendo sticks, baseball bats, trashcan lids and anything that you normally wouldn't see in the ring. 'Sellouts' plays throughout the arena to a huge pop as Daphne Anne comes out in her black outfit, "Introducing next, her opponent, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Daphne Anne!"
"Daphne Anne also coming out with eyes of determination. This wasn't a match that both Divas had time to prepare for. They only had five days to prepare for the match!" Jerry Lawler informed the WWE Universe as Daphne enters the ring.
"The last time a Hardcore Match has occurred in the Divas Division was about a decade ago! Daphne was starting her wrestling career at the time!" Michael Cole informed everyone in shock.
The bell rings as Daphne and Brie are throwing punches at each other. Daphne punches Brie, who bounces off the ropes. Daphne attacks Brie in the back, trying to send her to the ground and go for a submission. Daphne grabs Brie's neck and bends her back as the referee asks Brie if she wants to end the match already. Brie says no as she tries to break free from the submission. Daphne eventually releases as she bounces off the ropes and connects with a mini-dropkick, knocking Brie down to the floor as she goes for a cover. Brie kicks out quickly as Daphne grabs her by the hair. Brie screams in pain as Daphne places her between the ropes. Daphne steps on Brie's back and with her hands, stretches Brie's mouth open! Brie trying to gasp for air as the referee can't do anything, but let it happen.
Daphne releases moments later as she exits the ring. Ringside, there is grocery carts full of weapons for this Hardcore Match. She looks at the carts like it were presents on Christmas morning. She walks up to a cart that had fine china inside of it. She looks at it baffled, but turns around and Brie connects with a steel chair shot to the head. Daphne is knocked to the floor as the WWE Universe looks in shock of what Brie had just did. Brie picks up Daphne and yells, "Brie Mode!" before slamming Daphne's head against one of the grocery carts. Daphne tries to hold her head, trying to regain some composure, but Brie gives her no time to recover as she sends Daphne through the timekeepers area. There, Daphne Anne tries to recover and trying to find a way back to this match. She is able to get her hands on the ring bell and as Brie goes to grab Daphne back, Daphne slams the bell at Brie's face.
Brie holds back and it shows that her nose is bleeding from the impact of the ring bell. Daphne steps on the barricade and connects with a crossbody. Daphne gets up and from the trashcan, she grabs a kendo stick and begins to smack Brie's back with it, "Please forgive me, Brie." she yells as she continues to inflict punishment on the Bella Twin. Daphne sits on Brie's back and connects with a camel clutch with the kendo stick on Brie's neck. The referee waits for Brie to give him a sign to end the match. Brie refuses to quit as she tries to roll over Daphne off her. Brie does that and Daphne hits her against the ring pole as Brie slowly gets up and takes the kendo stick that Daphne had brought into this match and begins to inflict pain on her.
Things were not looking good for Daphne Anne.
Oh no! Things are not looking good for Daphne! By the way, Colby finally asked Daphne on a date! How sweet! One step in the right direction.
By the way, I have so much planned for this story! With Seth's betrayal on RAW, it gave me a ton of ideas to use in this story! I mean, the story is called "Sellouts" for a reason...the story began with Daphne as a sellout...just think about it. Also, I could put my twist to the events. Anyway, I finally got to fifty reviews in this story. I want to thank everyone for giving love to this story!
