Chapter 20: Final SmackDown before No Way Out
FRIDAY NIGHT SMACKDOWN
Tonight SmackDown is live from Miami, Florida. This is the final SmackDown before No Way Out. I just arrived to the arena in with my new Lexus LS 600h which is red. I came out of my new Lexus in a set of causal clothes again. This week I'm wearing white blazer with a black shirt inside, my gold Rolex watch, black pants, and black shoes. I had MY World Heavyweight Championship on my shoulder.
There's only one thing I'm think about and that's my Elimination Chamber match for MY World Heavyweight Championship. I have no experience inside an elimination chamber, but it doesn't matter. I'm walking in World Heavyweight Champion and I'm damn sure leaving World Heavyweight Champion!
LOCKER ROOM
I'm now in the locker room as I changed out of my casual clothes and into my wrestling attire. Tonight I'm wearing my yellow wrestling attire. I was also thinking about getting tattoos on my arms. I was planning on getting a skull on both shoulders and a snake on both wrists. I have a lot to think about. However I'm just going to do what I always do is be calm, cool, and collected. The sword tattoo Brock has on his chest is badass, I can't lie. Tattoos on me would be badass. I'm leaning on my chair relaxing as normal, until my "Kings" came into the ring smiling.
"So I'm going to ask you guys a question and I want your honest opinion." I said and they all nodded.
"How do guys think tattoos would look on me?" I asked and then Ashley laughed.
"Aaaaahhh!"she was laughing hard which was confusing all Shelton, Charlie, and myself.
"Ash why are you laughing?" I asked and she stopped while holding her chest.
"It is quite obvious. You would look badass with tattoos on!" she answered and I was surprised to hear her say that.
"Well I was considering getting a skull for both my shoulders and a snake for both of my wrists." I suggested and all of them nodded.
"You should get them tomorrow, so that at No Way Out on Sunday you'll look even more of a beast." Charlie suggested and I nodded.
"While let's talk about tattoos later. Right now all of us have important matches at No Way Out. Ashley your defending your Women's Championship in a fatal four way match. I know the odds are against you. You don't have to get pinned or forced to tap out to lose your championship, however; you just have to wait for right moment to strike. Your an amazing wrestler and a even amazing person. So at No Way Out give it your all." I concluded my speech and we kissed. I then turned over to Charlie and Shelton.
"You guys are the WWE Tag Team Champions. You guys have held the gold since the day we all became champions. At No Way Out you guys defend your Tag Team Championships against Paul London and Brain Kendrick. Although I don't like them I have give credit when credit is do. They are former WWE Tag Team Champions themselves and are an amazing tag team. However you guys have been Tag Team Champions twice now. You guys are great tag team yourself. I know you guys can do it." I concluded and we all hugged.
"Now do any of you guys have matches?" I asked and they all nodded.
"Tonight I have a fatal-four way match against Melina, Beth, and Jillian. The winner of the match gets to decide what type of match it will be at No Way Out." Ash answered.
"We have a tag team match against Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder." Charlie answered and I nodded.
"Do you have a match?" Ash asked.
"Yeah. I have a match against MVP tonight. So for now let's just sit back and relax." I said about to seat down on my chair when Charlie tapped my shoulder.
"Speak of the devil man." he said pointing to the TV. I saw MVP in the ring with a mic.
"Tonight I go one-on-one with the World Heavyweight Champion Kofi!" MVP declared and the fans popped. "However I should say 'soon to be FORMER World Heavyweight Champion' Kofi!" MVP shouted and the fans booed him crazy. "You see Kofi is an amazing athlete. Some of the high-flying moves he does is unthinkable because of his size. He is a beast, a monster, but he has a weakness. His weakness is his family. You take his family to take out Kofi. I will do whatever it takes to make sure I walk out of No Way Out the World Heavyweight Champion! Even if that means I have to hurt Kofi's family." MVP finished his speech and I just stared at the TV.
Charlie and Shelton were backing away from me. They know that I'm about to lose it. "Kofi love I just want you to know that please kick MVP's ass. But do it at No Way out. Also make sure at No Way Out you don't destroy him to the point were he can't walk anymore. Okay?" Ash asked and I smiled.
"Don't worry sweet. I'll make sure he'll still be able to walk. Maybe. If I feel remorse which right now is none." I said and kissed her before leaving.
"Don't worry guys. MVP won't be paralyzed or anything. He'll just have a long, long, long, time getting out the hospital." I said with a creepy smile and they nodded. I then left with my World Heavyweight Championship.
"Sometimes he scares the hell out of me. He can be caring and nice one second then do a complete 180 and become the Black Beast." Charlie said a little troubled.
"I know right. I glad we have a great person like him on our side." Shelton said and Charlie nodded.
"His does this all the time. The moment you make him angry you better be ready to defend yourself." Ash said.
IN THE RING
Right now in the ring is MVP, Finaly, Chavo, Rey, and Matt. They're all talking about walking out World Heavyweight Champion and headline WrestleMaina. They were arguing back and forth. Just then MVP spoke.
"So after I win the World Heavyweight-" MVP couldn't continue his sentence because "Next Big Thing" played and I came out with MY World Heavyweight Championship. The crowd pooped as my pyro went off. I made my way down the ring with a mic in my right hand.
"First of all I just to point out that the only person walking out World Heavyweight Champion is me. Second MVP I hope you have health insurance because after I'm done with you at No Way Out you'll wish you never stepped foot in a WWE ring. You say I that my weakness is my family. You couldn't be anymore wrong Power Ranger! My family isn't just my "Kings" or my actually family. No, my family is also the WWE Universe!" I declared and received and huge pop.
"They have been by my side since the moment I stepped foot in WWE. I know that not all fans love me and that's fine by me. They are entitled to love whatever Superstars they want. However I'll still fight for them because without them WWE would be nothing!" I shouted receiving another pop and MVP smirked.
"Kofi you think without this losers that the WWE would be nothing? No without the WWE Superstars the fans are nothing more than pieces of trash!" MVP exclaimed and the crowd booed the hell out of him.
"That's were your wrong Power Ranger. The fans pay their tickets because they love the WWE and wanted to an amazing show and they're damn sure going to get one tonight in Miami!" I declared as crowd popped for me a third time.
"Also let's be real here. The only person that has actually been World heavyweight Champion is Rey. Matt is only person who can become World Heavyweight Champion if he has the desire. Everyone else the chances of you walking out World Heavyweight Champion is slim to none. MVP your a good wrestler, but you let that big ego of yours do your battles. Finaly you can't win a match without that cane in your hand. Chavo your good wrestler too, but lately all you've been is Edge's bitch. " I concluded my speech.
"EXCUSE ME! I SAID EXCUSE ME!" everyone in the ring turned to see SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero on the entrance ramp.
"Since all of the Elimination Chamber participants want to fight so badly tonight all six participants will compete in matches were if they lose they will lose their Chamber spot to the Superstar who beats them." Vickie announced and everyone in the ring, but me was flipping out. So if anyone lose they not only lose their Chamber spot, but they also possible loss the chance to main event WrestleMaina as World Heavyweight Champion; not like any of them will win.
"Vickie this is ridiculous! Why should I wrestle tonight with a chance to lose the Elimination Chamber spot I deserved?!" MVP questioned and I had to speak after what he just said.
"First of all MVP you didn't do anything to gain that Elimination Chamber spot. Vickie Guerrero was generous enough to put you in the Chamber match. Second, are you afraid to put your money and your Chamber spot where your mouth is? If you really want to be World Heavyweight Champion then you have take risk and overcome those odds and not be a scared, whinny, little pussy!" I declared as the fans cheered and he lost it.
"You know what?! I take the challenge! I wrestle whoever there is so I whoop their ass and prove I deserve to be in the Elimination Chamber match!" he yelled and I laughed.
"You talk all you want, but if you can't back it up then your hopeless in this ring." I said dropping my mic and leaving the ring.
"I have one more announcement to make. Tonight for the main event Kofi, you will be in a 3-on-1 handicap match for your World Heavyweight Championship. If any of those three Superstars beat you than they will going to the Chamber match as World Heavyweight Champion. Finally Finaly this is your opponent later tonight.." she pointed to the stage and 10 seconds went and then before flames went off. "Slow Chemical" and out came the monster Kane with smile on his face and mic in his hand.
"You know I'm not one for saying thank you. However Vickie thank you for giving me this opportunity to become the World Heavyweight Champion. Kofi I must admit you've had a good run as World Champion,however; your title reign ends at No Way Out when I beat Finaly later tonight and get added to the Elimination Chamber match. When that happens at No Way Out I going to take your World Heavyweight Championship!" Kane declared as I wasn't fazed at all.
"I don't mind going one-on-one with you Kane. Kane your the Big Red Machine, and your destroy everything in your path, however; can slay the Black Beast? Can you end my undefeated streak? Will you be ready when the 'Black Beast is unleashed'? The answers to all those questions is no. Kane your an amazing competitor, however; no matter how good you are you'll end up like all the man who have tried and take MY World Heavyweight Championship. You will fail. You will highly be added to the Elimination Chamber match, however; you won't have a chance of becoming World Heavyweight Champion won't happen when I prove that at No Way Out." I concluded dropping my mic as I keep looking at Kane. Then SmackDown went on commercial.
LOCKER ROOM
"Now this is a big match for you. You win you get to choose the stipulation of your championship match at No Way Out. This is a huge match for you. Now go out there and win. When you do win pick a match that is not only exciting to watch, but a match were you will have the advantage." I finished talking to Ash as she gave a good luck kiss and left.
"Alright guys lets talk. You guys have a tag team match against Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder. You've had a lot of momentum since becoming WWE Tag Team Champions. So tonight I want you guys to continue gaining that momentum, so at No Way Out you can put an end to Kendrick and London." I told them and they nodded.
"Also Ash is going to win when she hits Beth with a Spear after Beth hits the Grand Slam on Melina." I said predicted the outcome of the match already.
15 MINUTES LATER
"Just as a reminder ladies and gentlemen the winner of this fatal-four way match will choose the match stipulation at No Way Out." Cole stated.
"That is a huge stipulation Micheal! One of this divas will have the advantage come No Way Out this Sunday." JBL said in excitement.
Beth was in control as she just hit a military press on Jillian. Beth then ran to the corner where Jillian was and hit a huge clothesline. Beth then placed Jillian on the top rope. She climbed on hooked Jillian's arm onto her shoulder. Beth then his a Superplex off the top rope.
"Beth Phoenix hits a massive Superplex!" Cole shouted.
Beth then got up and hooked both of Jillian's arms and lifted her up for the Grand Slam! It was all over now!
"Beth hits the Grand Slam! It all o-no here comes Melina!" Cole exclaimed.
Melina went for a Superkick, but Beth countered with a belly-to-belly suplex. Beth then grabbed Melina hooking her arms and then lifted her up the Grand Slam.
"Beth Phoenix with a second Grand Slam! It could be over now!
"No here comes Ashley!"
Ashley came in and hit a Superkick right on the face of Beth. She then waited for Beth to get up. When Beth did she turned around for a SPEAR! 1-2-3!
"Ashley wins with a Spear on Beth Phoenix!"
"What a brilliant plan by the Women's Champion."
Ashley celebrated while the ref was holding her hand in the air. She was given her Women's Championship. She the asked for a mic.
"Now that I won the fatal-four way match the question now is what match stipulation will I choose? I can only think of one. So ladies at No Way Out the four of us divas will battle in the first ever fatal-four way Extreme Rules match!" Ash declared I was smiling now. She's taking a page out of my book. I personally love Extreme Rules matches. The three other divas were not happy about this. SmackDown went on commercial again.
LOCKER ROOM
"That's my Ashley. I expect nothing less. Nice match stipulation too." I praised her while kissing her.
"Thanks love." she smiled back. I then turned to Shelton and Charlie.
"Now guys go out there and gain more momentum for No Way Out." I said and both of them nodded then left.
15 MINUTES LATER
"Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas are in control of this match and are trying to gain more momentum for No Way this Sunday."
Charlie was in the ring with Kendrick. He had him in a Boston Crab. Kendrick was struggling to fight out of it. However he managed to turn his body sideways to counter the submission. Kendrick then connected with a Superkick. He then tagged London who went to the top rope.
"London now on the top rope. He could be looking for the Shooting Star Press."
He nailed the Shooting Star Press. Shelton ran into the ring to prevent the pin, but Kendrick decked him with a Superkick. London then went for the cover.
1-2-thre-no?! Charlie got the shoulder up! Kendrick and London couldn't believe it. Kendrick picked Charlie intending to hit a Suplex, but Charlie countered with a DDT. London went to hit Charlie with a clothesline, but Charlie ducked and then BAM! Superkick by Shelton. Charlie throw Kendrick to Shelton and then Wrestling's Greatest Finisher! 1-2-3!
LOCKER ROOM
"Yes that's what I'm talking about! Seize the right moment to strike." I was energetic now that Shelton and Charlie won.
"Now all that left is for you gain more momentum for No Way Out." Ash said to me.
"Your right. When I step in that ring my three opponents better say their prayers." I confidently said.
After 5 minutes Shelton and Charlie can back smiling. I was bumping fists with them. All four of us were now relaxing as SmackDown went on. The Elimination Chamber has new participants in it. Kane was able to beat Finaly after a chokeslam and Mark Henry was able to beat Chavo Guerrero after a World's Strongest Slam. Now that two monsters are in the Chamber match the match itself is even more hyped.
"Alright I'm up. You guys chill and watch yours truly kick ass and take names as the 'Black Beast is about to unleash'." I said and left.
MAIN EVENT
"Tonight's main event has World Heavyweight Champion Kofi defending his World Championship tonight in a 3-on-1 handicap match two days before his Elimination Chamber match at No way Out. This match made by General Manager Vickie Guerrero. I don't know about you John, but if someone is able to beat Kofi here tonight then he won't be in the Chamber match." Cole stated.
"That's right Micheal, but don't count the Black Beast out. He has conquered/ dominated every single opponent he has stepped in ring with every single he became World Heavyweight Champion. He is also undefeated every since he came to WWE. The question now is there anybody in the WWE who can beat Kofi?" JBL questioning himself.
"We'll find out in a few moments John." Cole said.
"The following contest is a 3-on-1 handicap match scheduled for one-fall and is for the World Heavyweight Championship. The Superstar who is able to pin Kofi or make him submit will become the World Heavyweight Champion." Lillian announced to the crowd.
"Next Big Thing" played and I came out ready to do battle. I had my World Championship around my waist and then lifted my hands up for my pyro to go off. I jumped on the ring apron and then my other pyro from the ring post came out. I got into the ring and waited for my three opponents.
"Rap Sheet" played and out came the 5 time, 5 time, 5 time, WCW Champion Booker T himself. I was smiling because it's not everyday you get to face a future Hall of Famer like Booker T. Booker came into the ring and we shook hands.
"It's Time" played and out came Gregory Helms who used to be the formerly known as the Hurricane. He got in the ring staring me down while looking at MY World Heavyweight Championship. He was determined to become champion by the look on his face.
"Trailer Trashin" played and out came Jamie Noble who was also determined to become World Champion, however; I know he won't last 30 seconds in this match. He came into the ring at got right in my face and was talking trash. The ref got between us and pushed Jamie back.
INTRODUCING THE CHALLENGERS:
"First from Houston, Texas weighting 250 pounds Booker T!" the crowd cheered.
" Next from Melbourne, Florida weighting 202 pounds Jamie Noble!" the crowd booed like crazy.
"Finally from Smithfield, North Carolina weighting 210 pounds Gregory Helms!" the crowd booed for Helms too.
INTRODUCING THE CHAMPION:
From Baltimore, Maryland weighting 290 pounds he is the World Heavyweight Champion the Black Beast Kofi!" the crowd roared for me as always. I throw my shirt into the crowd and a fan caught it. I then handed my title to the ref and the bell rang. It's going to be me and Helms.
We struggled with a test of strength and I won. I put in a headlock and squeezed on his head to apply pressure. I then ran full speed and hit a Bulldog. He got up and went for a clothesline, but I countered into a Swinging Neckbreaker. I then ran to the turnbuckle and jumped off the second rope. I jumped one more time this time off the third rope. I flipped back and hit a Moonsault. I picked him off his legs into a Powerbomb. I then picked him again this time running at him. I ran in the opposite direction of him and twirled around him. I then hit a HeadScissors Takedown. I then ran towards the ropes. Helms tried to hit with a clothesline, but I ducked and bounced off the ropes on the opposite side. He turned into a SPEAR! 1-2-3.
Helms was done. I stood up after getting the three count and saw Noble on the top rope. He jumped off for a Crossbody, but I caught him with ease. I then threw him back for a Fallaway Slam. I picked up off his feet and Irish Whipped him into the turnbuckle. I ran at him and he jump up and him me with a Dropkick. He then grabbed my head. However I fought out and started punching him non-stop. I then climbed on the turnbuckle and lifted him up in a Fireman's Carry position.
"Kofi has Noble on top rope. What's he going for?" Cole asked.
"Whatever Kofi's planning it's going spectacular." JBL said smiling.
I jumped off the top rope and nailed a Super Death Valley Driver. The crowd exploded as I hit an amazing move off the top rope. I went for the cover. 1-2-3. I got up on my feet and then BAM! Superkick by Booker. He then went for the cover. 1-2-thr-no I kicked out. Booker then kicked me in the stomach as I was on one knee. He bounced off the ropes and hit the Scissors Kick.
"Booker T hits the Scissors Kick on Kofi! Will Booker T become World Champion?!" Cole energetically said.
"This could be it right here!" JBL shouted.
1-2-thre-no! I kicked put at the last second. Booker was in shock. He tried to hit another Superkick, but I caught his foot. I spun his foot around and he spun around. I lifted him up on my shoulders and nailed a K-5. However I didn't go for the pin. Everyone was confused for why I didn't cover Booker. I then drag his body closer to one of the turnbuckles. I then climbed to the top rope.
"Feast your eyes on this!" I thought to myself and I jumped off the top rope. I nailed Booker with a Corkscrew Shooting Star Press or as I like to call it the Black Storm.
"What was that Micheal?!" JBL asked in shock.
"That's Kofi's new finisher called the Black Storm." Cole answered.
I went for the cover. 1-2-3.
"HERE IS YOUR WINNER:
AND STILL THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION KOFI!" Lillian stated and the crowd roared as the ref raised my hand. I then was handed my World Championship by the ref and held it up in the air. Booker got up and walked over to me. He extended his hand and I shook it as he clapped for me. The crowd clapped as they loved the sportsmanship. Booker left the ring as I was still celebrating my successful title defense. I turned around and then BAM! I got hit in the chest with a chair. The culprit was MVP. He then nailed me with Playmaker on the chair. I rolled out of the ring in pain.
"MVP has just knocked down the World Champion!"
"It's every man for himself and No Way Out."
MVP was celebrating, however; he turned around and got kicked in chest as while. The culprit this time was Matt Hardy. Matt nailed Twist of Fate on MVP. Matt was now the one standing tall, however his moment was short lived when he got kicked in the back and was hanging on the ropes. Rey was the cause of it. He bounced the ropes and nailed the 619 which knocked Matt out. Mark Henry then can into the ring and blasted Rey with a huge clothesline. Mark picked Rey up and nailed Rey with the World's Strongest Slam.
"Mark Henry now stands tall!"
"No, wait here comes the Big Red Machine Kane!"
Kane ran into the ring and then started trading blows with Mark. However Kane hit Mark with a huge right hand which dazed Mark. Kane then showed his tremulous strength by lifting Mark off his feet! I was surprised by this. I recovered from MVP's assault. I know Kane is strong as hell, but to lift Mark Henry off his feet is no easy task. Kane then nailed Mark with a Tombstone Piledriver. Kane was about to his signature taunt in the ring, but I stopped him and grabbed him from behind. I lifted him up and hit a German. I ran at him going for a Spear, but he got his right hand on my throat. He hooked my arm going for a Chokeslam, but I countered and nailed the KKO. I lifted him up and nailed him with a K-5. All my challengers were landed out as I was now for the third time standing tall with MY World Heavyweight Championship over my head.
"This Sunday at No Way Out is going to be war. All for MY World Heavyweight Championship! I'm walking in World Heavyweight Champion and I'm walking out FUCKING WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! NOTHING AND I MINE NOTHING WILL STOP ME FROM MAIN EVENTING WRESTLEMAINA 24 AS WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! NOTHING!"
