Chapter 52: California Playin' Around
Two days later...
RAW and Smackdown was in none other than Tina's hometown of Los Angeles, California for a supershow and Nicole and Delancey were at the hotel to meet Rochelle and her mother, Janet, to go wedding dress shopping for Rochelle. Nicole was also going to meet Rochelle's long-lost half brother, Taylor, for the first time.
When Nicole and Delancey arrived at Dave and Rochelle's hotel room, Delancey knocked on the door and a minute later, Rochelle opened the door.
"Hey, ladies," Rochelle said. "Come in."
Then Nicole and Delancey walked inside and saw Dave, Taylor, and Janet having a conversation with each other.
"Hey, ladies," Dave said.
"Hey, Dave," Delancey said.
"Hi, Nicole, Delancey," Janet said.
"Hi, Janet," Nicole said. "It's good to see you again."
"You too."
"Oh, I got something for you." Nicole takes out a wedding invitation out of her purse. "Here you go."
"Thank you, Nicole."
"You're welcome."
"Nicole, this is my long-lost half brother, Taylor," Rochelle said as Taylor got up from the chair.
"So this must be the infamous Nicole Mitchell," Taylor said extending his hand to Nicole. "It's nice to meet you."
"It's nice to meet you too," Nicole said. "Rochelle told me a lot about you. You must be lucky that your half sister is a WWE Diva."
"Yeah, well, I don't follow wrestling but after knowing about Rochelle, I've been following her and what she's been doing."
"That's great. Where are you from?"
"West Palm Beach, Florida."
"Wow, another Florida native in the Kennedy family. How original. Well, Taylor, if you want, I would like to invite you to my wedding in December. I'm marrying John Cena and Rochelle is one of my bridesmaids. Of course, she's getting married as well to Dave in April."
"Yeah, Rochelle told me everything. Sure, I would love to come your wedding."
"Cool."
Nicole takes out a wedding invitation out of her purse and gives it to Taylor.
"Thank you," Taylor said.
"You're welcome," Nicole said.
"Well, we probably should get going," Rochelle said. "I'll see you later at the arena."
"Alright," Dave said as Rochelle kissed him. "Let's go, mom."
"It was nice meeting you, Taylor," Nicole said.
"You too," Taylor said.
Then Nicole, Delancey, Rochelle, and Janet left the hotel room.
A few minutes later, the women were at a bridal store shopping for their dresses for Rochelle's wedding.
"All right, ladies," Rochelle said. "Come out so I can see." Nicole and Delancey came out of the dressing room in pink iridescent chiffon tea-length dressed with side draping and cascade. "So, what do you think?"
"I love it," Nicole said. "This looks beautiful."
"Yeah, it sure does," Delancey said. "Oh, yeah, you definitely picked a good color for your wedding."
"Well, that's the way I wanted my wedding to be. Alright, let's get changed so I can put on my wedding dress."
"Alright," Nicole said.
Several minutes later, Nicole, Rochelle, and Delancey were in the dressing room and Nicole and Delancey was helping Rochelle into her wedding gown. Then Rochelle came out of the dressing room in her white spaghetti strap empire gown with beaded detail under the bustline and low back.
"So, mom," Rochelle said, "what do you think?"
"Oh, my God, Rochelle," Janet said covering her mouth with both hands. "You look beautiful."
"You sure do, Rochelle," Nicole said. "We gotta add some touches on you so you'll look perfect for your wedding day."
"Thanks, Nicole," Rochelle said. "I just hope with everything that's going on, Dave and I will be able to get married."
"You will, Rochelle," Janet said. "You will."
"Don't worry, Rochelle," Delancey said. "We got a wedding that is two months away and after that, you're next."
"Yeah."
After the girls finished shopping for their dresses, Janet went back to the hotel and Nicole, Delancey, and Rochelle went to the arena.
Nicole was passing out wedding invitations to some of the RAW and Smackdown superstars and then she came across Vito, who was wearing a dress.
"Miss Nicole, how are you?" Vito said as he kissed Nicole's hand.
"Vito, hi," Nicole said.
"What are you doing?"
"Well, I'm passing out wedding invitations."
"Oh, yes, you're marrying John Cena. The wedding will be the most talked about one of the year."
"I'll bet. Um, Vito, could I ask you a question?"
"Shoot."
"If you were to get married, would you wear a wedding dress?"
"Of course, I would. I'm the toughest man to wear a dress and I've been undefeated since I started wearing a dress."
"Yeah, I mean, most guys would jump off a building for wearing a dress, but you, you got guts. I admire that. I'll see you around.
"See ya."
Then Nicole walked away shaking her head and smiling.
A little later, RAW was on and Nicole, Tina, and Brittany were walking towards the arena until they came across Randy Orton and Edge. Then the girls started cracking up because earlier, Randy Orton and Edge were dressing up as D-Generation X and acting like them. Then D-Generation X came out and embarrassed Randy and Edge with near nude photos which led to a main event between Triple H and Randy.
"What the hell was that out there?" Nicole said as she continued laughing. "I mean, Randy, I've never seen you wearing chaps before and you acting like Shawn Michaels, that's something new."
"Randy and Edge, come on," Brittany said. "D-Generation X is gonna kick your ass tonight and embarrass you even more." Edge stared at Brittany even more. "What? Come on, Edge, don't tell me you're still angry because you lost your chance to become the three-time WWE Champion. You deserved it after everything you've done. Believe me."
"Let's go, ladies," Tina said. "This train wreck is getting old."
Then the girls walked away still cracking up.
Then it was time for the first ever Battle of the L.A. Divas match between Tina and Melina. Johnny Nitro's entrance theme played and Melina came out from the curtain.
"The following is a Battle of L.A. Divas match is scheduled for one fall," Lillian Garcia announced. "Making her way to the ring, Melina."
Melina walked down to the ring with photographers taking pictures of her. She did her ring entrance and started prancing around. She stood waiting for Tina to come out. Tina's entrance theme played and she came out from the curtain with Nicole and Brittany following her.
"And her opponent being accompanied to the ring by Brittany Swanson and the WWE Women's Champion, Nicole Mitchell, Tina Alexander," Lillian announced.
Nicole was wearing a long orange tank top with lace at the top, black miniskirt, black boots, a long black rosary with a cross, and her hair curled. Tina was wearing a pink spaghetti strap tank top, pink shorts, and her hair curled. Brittany was wearing a pink neckline halter top with pink polka dots and pink bow, black miniskirt, black boots, and her hair straight. The three girls walked down the ramp and went into the ring. Tina got on one of the turnbuckles and raised her arms in the air. Then she got back down and waved at her family and boyfriend, Robbie, who were sitting with the crowd. Nicole and Brittany left the ring as the referee called for the bell.
Tina and Melina locked up and Tina got a side headlock. Melina pulled Tina down by the arm and then she speared her and pinned her for a two count. Tina whipped Melina off the ropes and Melina came back with a sunset flip for a two count. Tina then got Melina in a slingshot into the second rope and then she pinned Melina for a two count. Tina gave Melina a body slam and Melina rolled Tina up in a pin for a two count and then Melina knocked Tina down with a series of clotheslines. Melina whipped Tina off the ropes and she gave her a flap jack and then she pinned Tina for a two count.
Melina gave Tina a number of right hands down on the mat and then she backed her into the corner. Melina whipped Tina to the other corner and gave her a clothesline. Melina whipped Tina to the other corner and Tina kicked Melina in the chest to knock her down. Tina then went to the second rope for an elbow drop, but Melina was able to avoid it. Melina then went to the top rope and Tina got up and knocked her down to the outside of the ring. Then Melina got up but Tina gave Melina a baseball slide and Nicole and Brittany picked Melina up and put her back in the ring and Tina kicked Melina in the gut and flips into a headscissors. Tina pops up sitting on Melina's shoulders and hits the Santa Monica Flipper, the kip-up hurricanrana, for the win.
"Here is your winner, Tina Alexander," Todd announced.
Nicole and Brittany got into the ring and raised Tina's arm in the air with the referee. The three girls hugged each other and Tina continued celebrating as she went up on the turnbuckles and blew kisses to the crowd as RAW went to a commercial break.
Later, Johnny Nitro's entrance theme played and he and Melina came out from the curtain and walked down the ramp. Melina did her infamous ring entrance and Johnny slid through her legs. Johnny asked for a microphone and said,
"Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, we have a very special guest. The man is an A-lister; the man is one of the biggest stars in Hollywood. He is an actor, he is a rapper, and he's a very close personal friend of Johnny Nitro and Melina. Please welcome Kevin Federline."
Then Kevin Federline's music played and he came out from the curtain. He walked down the ramp and got into the ring as Johnny gave him a microphone.
"I wanna say thank you to Johnny and Melina," Kevin said. "It's real good to be here. Actually, it's not so good to be here. You people need to stop booing Nitro and Melina and start treating them and me with some respect."
"K-Fed, listen to them, man," Johnny said. "These people are ignorant."
"It's okay. The same people booing are the same people that are buying magazines with my face on it every week. You all know it. You know, I think you're just a bunch of L.A. superficial posers. Oh, snap."
"That's right," Melina said. "Oh, my God. Kevin, now that was so profound. You know, Kevin, since you're here, why don't you us the honor and debut a new song off of your new album."
"Y'all wanna hear me rap?" The fans screamed, "No!" "Y'all wanna hear me rap? Y'all wanna hear me rap, then you can wait until October 31st. 'Playing with Fire' is out on Halloween. Pick the album up."
"Guess what?" Johnny said. "We already heard it. Let's get the hell up outta here. Let's go."
Then John's entrance theme played and he came out from the curtain with Nicole, Tina, and Brittany following him. Tina was wearing a white tube blouse with black polka dots, black miniskirt, and black boots. The four walked down the ramp and they got into the ring. Then John asked for a microphone and said,
"Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Now I can't have you waltz down here and then promise some elaborate hip-hop performance and then waltz out. I don't care how you feel about these people, man, but that's just wrong. I don't wanna get them cheated. But I can understand you, your album's out October 31st, so you know what? I ain't done this in a long time. I may be a little bit rusty, nowhere near the quality or performance of a Kevin Federline but maybe tonight the old veteran dust off the mic hand."
John then cleared his throat and started to rap.
The album's called "Playing with Fire," hold up, I got a better line
Let's call it, "The World's Biggest Scumbag"
Here he is, Kevin Federline
The only reason these people know you is because your fame and fortune's built in
He's got like John Cena's street cred and less talented Paris Hilton
You wanna knock on these people, K-Fed? You must be dreaming
You see, they hang with a Marine, you're with a dude who likes semen
You mad, Johnny Nitro? You ain't got the nuts to hit me
And if K-Fed wasn't around, I'd be spearing Britney
Kevin tried to get at John but Johnny was holding him back and Nicole, Tina, and Brittany were holding John back. Then Nicole took the microphone from John and said,
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Kevin, please forgive John for the last line. I love Britney Spears, no doubt. But Kevin, why would you hang out with a couple of clowns like Johnny Nitro and Melina? I mean, they're nothing but trouble. And speaking of trouble, Melina, you almost ended up in hot water because if things got worse at No Mercy between Batista and Rochelle Kennedy or later, Rochelle would come to RAW and make your life a living hell. I mean, after all, Batista did forfeit the World Heavyweight Title because of you falsely accusing him of sexual harassment and having Mark Henry to injure him. If I were you, I'd watch my back and try not to get in trouble again."
Then Johnny took off his fur coat and shirt and he went to attack John but John decked Johnny then cleared him to the outside and Melina and Kevin bailed.
Then the Big Show, King Booker, Queen Sharmell, and WWE Chairman Vince McMahon came out from the curtain, walked down the ramp, and got into the ring.
"Imagine this," Vince said onto the microphone. "We have all three champions in the ring, all at the same time. That's something pretty special which is exactly what's gonna happen November 5th at Cyber Sunday. However, on that special occasion, the three of you will actually be competing. On that occasion, in that triple threat match, we will determine just which one of these three will be the Champion of Champions. But quite frankly, that's not all will be at stake. Not only will your pride be at stake, something else will as well. One of you would actually be defending your championship on that night. Which one? Well, I could easily make that decision. Quite frankly, in the interest of making Cyber Sunday interactive, I think that everyone should make that decision. All you have to do is log on to the WWE website and cast your vote and by the way, voting begins right now. Let's go, gentlemen."
Then Vince, King Booker, Queen Sharmell, and the Big Show left while John, Nicole, Tina, and Brittany stood in the ring with no expressions on their face. The fans chanted "Cena!" and then John turned his attention to Kevin Federline, who was still on the outside.
"Hey, K-Fed's still here," John said onto the microphone. "I'll tell you what, Mr. Trendsetter. You know, everything you do, you claim everybody else copies you, and voting for the Champion of Champions match has officially started now. I'll tell you what. Come on in here. Come on in here, it's all right." Then Kevin got into the ring. "Now we're gonna start something because, however, he votes, according to him, everyone else is gonna vote the same. So right now, you're gonna get the exclusive scoop on which title will be defended at Cyber Sunday. Kevin Federline, whose title would you like to see defended at Cyber Sunday?"
"Yours," Kevin said.
"Why's that?"
"I wanna see you get your ass kicked up and down this ring."
John paused and dropped the microphone and his title belt. John took a deep breath and picked up his title belt. Then he feigned a handshake then picked up Kevin for the FU. He dropped him on his back and Nicole, Tina, and Brittany laughed as they and John got out of the ring. Some referees ran to the ring to check on Kevin and John and the girls did the Marine salute. Then they walked up the ramp and went to the back.
"You are so gonna get in so much trouble for this," Nicole said, "but Kevin Federline was hanging with the wrong people and gave you the wrong answer."
"Man, I wonder what Britney Spears is gonna feel about this," Brittany said.
"Hey, I love Britney Spears, no doubt. Hell, I would be surprised if this made national headlines."
"Nah, I don't think so," Tina said. "But what about the triple threat match at Cyber Sunday? I mean, three champions in one ring but one championship has to be defended."
"You know what would be really cool? If John was still the WWE Champion and the new World Heavyweight Champion."
"Oh, my God, that would be so awesome," Brittany said.
"Yeah," Tina said.
"Yeah, the WWE Champion and the World Heavyweight Champion," John said. "That would be awesome."
A little later, it was time for the last first round match of the 8-Diva tournament for the Women's Championship and Nicole and Tina were in the Women's Locker Room while Brittany was getting ready.
"Are you sure you don't want us to join you at ringside, Brittany?" Tina said.
"No," Brittany said. "Maria's not bad and besides, I've been waiting for this my entire life even though I might be facing you, Nicole."
"Well, don't be feeling so lucky yet," Nicole said. "You've got another round to get through after you beat Maria."
"Yeah, I know. Well, I'm off."
"Alright, break a leg," Tina said.
"Thank you."
Then Brittany left the Women's Locker Room.
Back at the arena, Maria's entrance theme played and she came out from the curtain.
"The following is the final first round match of this 8-Diva tournament for the Women's Championship," Lillian Garcia announced. "Introducing first from Chicago, Illinois, Maria."
Maria blew kisses to the crowd and she walked down the ramp and got into the ring. Then she stood waiting for Brittany to come out. Then Brittany's entrance theme played and she came out from the curtain.
"And her opponent from Manhattan, New York, Brittany Swanson," Lillian announced.
Brittany was wearing a hot pink tank top which lined at the bust and the rest of it was see-through lace, denim baggy jeans, and black hand warmers. Brittany walked down the ramp and went into the ring. Brittany got on one of the turnbuckles and raised her arms in the air. She got back down and the referee called for the bell.
Brittany and Maria locked up and Maria gets a kick and European uppercut and Brittany goes down. Maria shoves Brittany to the corner and hits some shoulders to Brittany in the corner. Maria gets some kicks and a choke in the corner and then she tosses Brittany by her hair. Maria hits a forearm for a two count and Maria tries for a slam but Brittany gets out of the hold. Brittany sends Maria into the ropes and Brittany hits a series of forearms to the lower back.
Brittany gets an abdominal stretch into a rollup for a two count and Brittany hits a single leg trip and then she puts Maria in a Boston Crab. Maria gets to the ropes get Brittany to release the hold and Brittany gets a kick followed by an Irish whip and a monkey flip. Brittany hits some forearms and Brittany hits a cross body but the momentum puts Maria on top and she gets the three count.
"Here is your winner, Maria," Lillian announced.
Brittany was on the mat a little disappointed and shocked and Maria helped Brittany up. Then the two shook hands and raised each other's arm in the air.
"Oh, well, Maria won," Nicole said. "That's a surprise."
"She must've had some extra training for this," Tina said. "But Brittany, at least she's lucky she's not facing you for the Women's Title."
"Yeah."
Later, Smackdown was on and John and Nicole would be at ringside watching the World Heavyweight Championship later tonight between Batista and King Booker.
Nicole was walking down the hallway when she saw Rey Mysterio, Delancey, and Rochelle.
"Hey, you guys," Nicole said.
"Hey, Nicole, what's up?" Rey said.
"Well, I'm still here because John and I are gonna be at ringside to watch the World Heavyweight Championship match and I'm just gonna be watching the 'I Quit' match from here."
"Oh, awesome."
"Alright, ladies, be careful and keep an eye on Vickie."
"We will," Rochelle said.
"See you in a bit," Delancey said as she, Rey, and Rochelle walked away.
Later it was time for the 'I Quit' match between Rey Mysterio and Chavo Guerrero.
Chavo's entrance theme played and Vickie came out from the curtain followed by Chavo. Then the two walked down the ramp and got into the ring. Rey's entrance theme played and he jumped out from the ramp. Rey came down and joined Delancey and Rochelle who came out from the curtain. Delancey was wearing a red tube mini dress, black boots, and red plaid arm warmers. Rochelle was wearing a blue wide belt halter top and blue wide belt miniskirt. The three walked down the ramp and got into the ring. Rey got on the turnbuckles and raised his arm in the air. Then he took off his shirt and threw it in the crowd. He got back down and Delancey, Rochelle, and Vickie left the ring as the referee called for the bell.
The fans chanted "Eddie" chant and Rey and Chavo locked up in the middle of the ring but Chavo gets the kick to the midsection of Rey gets in charge early. Rey tries to fight back but Chavo unloads with a huge uppercut then offloads some boots into the head of Rey. Chavo hits another uppercut and a kick to the head of Rey and Chavo picks up Rey and whips him across the ring. Rey ducks the clotheslines, jumps on the top rope and then launches a flying body press into Chavo and lays the punches in as they hit the canvas. Rey and Chavo both get up and Rey kicks into the hamstring of Chavo knocking him to the ground.
Rey gets Chavo into the corner punching him though Chavo fights back and Chavo whips Rey into the opposite corner and follows up but Rey lifts himself up and catches Chavo with a spinning headscissors through the middle rope and onto the canvas. Rey measures Chavo and comes over the ropes with a flying whipping seated senton! Rey kicks into the chest of Chavo on the concrete floor and Rey picks up Chavo and rams him into the barricades. Rey hits another kick to the gut and then Rey slams Chavo back first into the steel steps. The referee with the microphone sees if Chavo is going to quit but Chavo has nothing to do with it! Rey picks up Chavo and slams his head 1, 2, 3, 4 times into the steel steps and Chavo is down.
Rey grabs the microphone from the referee and asks Chavo if he quits yet before kicking into the back of him a number of times. Rey picks up Chavo again and whips him shoulder first into the ring post. Rey grabs a chair and enters the ring where Chavo has rolled into. Rey tells Vickie something before he rams the chair into the midsection of Chavo and them slams it twice into his back before telling the referee to see if he's quitting. Chavo says he's not quitting and he rolls into the corner. Rey comes at him with boot to the face before sticking the chair over the body of Chavo. Rey walks away and then comes in with a dropkick slamming the chair into the head of Chavo!
Chavo staggers to his feet only to receive the chair over his head slamming him into the middle ropes and Rey connects with the 619. Rey tries to climb the ropes to splash Chavo but Vickie holds onto the ropes shaking them making it impossible for Rey to climb them. Then Delancey and Rochelle go after Vickie going around both sides of the ring and Vickie gets under the ring to escape. Then Chavo grab the chair and throws it into the face of Rey stunning him as he falls into the ring. Chavo is limping a little but manages to sink the boots into Rey. He grabs his leg and kicks into the knee of Rey trying to hurt him. Rey tries to get away but Chavo stalks him kicking into the back of the knee taking down Rey twice.
Chavo grabs the chair and slams into the left leg of Rey. Chavo gets the referee to check on Rey but Rey says he's not quitting in Spanish and Chavo goes back on the offensive, kicking into the leg of Rey and then ramming the chair into his leg as well. Chavo gets Rey into a half Boston crab further working on hurting the leg and then lets go. He grabs the chair again and slams it once again into the leg of Rey! Chavo locks the leg of Rey in the chair and then exits the ring to climb to the top rope. Chavo launches himself from the top rope and splashes the leg of Rey, chair and all! As Chavo rolls around the ring in pain as well, he gets the referee to ask Rey if he is going to quit.
Nope, not this time! Chavo grabs Rey and throws him under the bottom rope onto the floor. Chavo follows out of the ring with the chair in hand and kicks into the knee of Rey sending him staggering up the rampway. Chavo gets another slam into the knee with the chair and he is in total control of this match at the moment! Chavo kicks into Rey as Rey tries to stagger up the rampway holding the injured left leg of his. Chavo grabs Rey by the mask and in desperation, Rey tries to fight back but Chavo gains advantage again. Chavo tries to suplex Rey off the rampway but is blocked by Rey who in pain manages a desperation move in suplexing Chavo on the rampway. Rey and Chavo are both down and they slowly get to their feet. Rey manages to kick into the midsection of Chavo and then another one which knocks him from the rampway and onto the floor to the side of that!
Rey goes to the top of the stage and just as Chavo gets to his feet, Rey, injured leg and all, launches himself off and lands a seated senton onto Chavo on the floor below! Rey has gotten to his feet, picks up Chavo, and rams him back first into the side of the rampway! Rey grabs Chavo in almost a crossface hold, pulling back on the head of Chavo trying to get him to say "I quit" but Chavo once again is not saying it. Rey picks up Chavo off of the floor and then gives an almighty kick into the back of the knee of Chavo and he is in pain. Rey grabs a chair and slams it into the back of Chavo!
Rey flips Chavo onto his back and then tries to choke him with the chair but Chavo is not quitting still. Chavo manages to kick Rey to break the choke hold and he manages to get to his feet and beat into Rey, gives him a huge uppercut, slams Rey onto some covered steel containers, uncovers them, hits into Rey and then almost manages to ram one of the containers into the injured leg of Rey who manages to move his leg out of the way just in time! Rey kicks out at Chavo and them manages to spear Chavo into the steel lighting scaffolding! Rey tries to jump into Chavo who pushes Rey off onto the lighting structure which Rey tries to climb, lashing out with his boot and catching Chavo. Chavo comes back at him as he is climbing the scaffolding and manages to pull Rey down by the waist, locking his legs in the structure and Rey is hanging upside down and can't get out.
Chavo makes sure the legs of Rey are locked in the scaffolding and then comes around and hits into the chest of Rey who is hurting now. Chavo grabs the chair and rams it into the leg of Rey and Rey can't do anything about it! He does it again and gets the referee to ask if he quits! Rey says no! Chavo slams the chair against his leg again, again, and again! Rey can't take any more of this and with the referee holding the microphone at his face and Rey says he quits.
Both Delancey and Rochelle were disappointed and Rochelle dropped down on her knees covering her face. Vickie hugs Chavo and celebrates her win with him as the referee calls for the medical staff to come and untangle Rey from the lighting scaffolding and Rey is in a lot of pain. Vickie has taken Chavo into the ring and is raising his hand. Delancey and Rochelle were checking on Rey as he was writhing on the ground in pain and the stretcher was being brought out. Chavo and Vickie were continuing their celebration in the ring as EMTs helped Rey onto the stretcher. As they carried him away with Delancey and Rochelle following them, Chavo and Vickie back in the ring were waving bye-bye to Rey.
Nicole, backstage, was disappointed as well looking at what happened after the match and the EMTs appeared with Rey on the stretcher and Delancey and Rochelle standing close by. Nicole then walked over to them.
"Wait, wait," Rochelle said as the EMTs stopped.
"Rochelle, mi mejor amiga," Rey said. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry I let you down."
"You didn't let me down. You had no choice and I could've stopped Chavo when I had the chance. Now...I don't think...I don't think this will be the same without you."
"Rochelle, remember, I'm with you in spirit. And Delancey, please look after her."
"I will," Delancey said.
"Hey, Nicole, I might see you on RAW."
"Yeah, you might," Nicole said.
"Adios, Rochelle and Delancey."
"Good-bye, Rey," Rochelle said as Delancey waved.
Then the EMTs carried Rey away.
"Rochelle, Delancey, I am so sorry," Nicole said.
"Yeah, me too," Delancey said.
"Rochelle, are you okay?"
"Yes and no," Rochelle said. "You know, this would've ended differently if Randy Orton hadn't gotten in Chavo's head and gotten Chavo to act like a complete asshole. You see, that's why Randy is not the World Heavyweight Champion and that's why he lost tonight. I am so...I need to be alone."
Then Rochelle walked away.
"You know, when Rey gets in situations like this," Nicole said, "he's always coming out on top. But now..."
"I know," Delancey said. "Who knows how worse this could be and what Rochelle is gonna do."
"Yeah."
"Well, I'm gonna try and calm down and I'll see you later."
"Okay, if you see Rochelle, make sure she doesn't do anything stupid."
"Yeah."
Then Delancey walked away and after she was out of sight, Nicole started walking slowly. Then a song popped in her head and she started to sing not knowing that Delancey and Rochelle would sing along. It happened to be "It's Over" by the Cheetah Girls.
(Nicole)
Four voices perfectly blending right from the start.
Oh, I'm afraid that it's ending, and my world is falling apart.
It's over, and I feel so alone
This is a sadness I've never known
How did I let the sweetest of dreams slip away?
And I'm afraid the hurt is here to stay
(Rochelle)
Promises made, not meant to be broken from a long time ago
Oh, so many words still unspoken, tell me how I was to know
It's over, (it's over) never thought it would be
Why in the world did this happen to me?
How could I let the sweetest of dreams slip away?
And I'm afraid the hurt is here to stay
(Delancey)
I go round and round and round in my head
Wanting to take back whatever I said (whatever I said)
No one was right, (no one was right)
We all made mistakes, (We all made mistakes,)
I'm ready to do whatever it takes
Please, don't let it be
Over, no, this is not how it ends
I need my sisters, my family, my friends
Don't wanna let the sweetest of dreams slip away, (The dreams slip away)
Don't cause if it's over, then the hurt is here to say
Don't let it be over
Please don't let it be over
Please don't let it be over
Later, it was time for the World Heavyweight Championship match between Batista and King Booker.
The Big Show's entrance theme played and he came out from the curtain. He walked down the ramp and got around the ring and stood next to the announcers' table. Then John's entrance theme played and he came out from the curtain with Nicole following him. Nicole was wearing a blue midriff football jersey in a tight women's size, denim jeans, and her hair curled with part of it in a ponytail in the back with the rest hanging down. The two walked down the ramp and got around the ring and stood next to the announcers' table on the other side.
Dave's entrance theme played and he came out from the curtain with Rochelle following him. Dave did his thing with the pyro and Rochelle kneeled in front of him. Rochelle stood back up and she and Dave walked down the ramp and got into the ring. Dave got on one of turnbuckles and raised his arms in the air. He got back down and King Booker's entrance theme played and he came out from the curtain with Queen Sharmell following him. The two walked down the ramp and got into the ring. Sharmell took off Booker's robe and crown and she and Rochelle left the ring as the referee raised the World Heavyweight Title belt in the air and called for the bell.
Dave and Booker locked up in the middle of the ring and Dave forces Booker into the corner but breaks clean. Dave and Booker locked up again and Booker gets Dave into a headlock. Dave gets out of it by whipping Booker into the ropes and both men shoulder to shoulder in a stand off as they glare at each other. Dave and Booker locked up again in the middle of the ring and Dave gets Booker into a headlock. Booker breaks it by punching into the midsection of Dave and then pressing him against the ropes where he whips across the ring but is felled by a shoulder block in return. Dave picks Booker up and slams his head into the turnbuckle a couple of times.
Dave elbows Booker a number of times in the corner and hits the big shoulder block but when his attention is taken away by the count of the referee, Booker thumbs him in the eye. Booker has Dave against the ropes and chops at Dave a couple of times then the same in the corner as Dave staggers there. Booker takes Dave out of the corner and against the ropes and whips him across the ring. Dave ducks under the attempted high kick and then clotheslines Booker out of the ring over the top rope. Dave follows Booker outside of the ring and tosses him back in. Queen Sharmell is on the apron and as the referee's attention is taken by her trying to get her out of the ring while Rochelle goes after her, Dave is blindsided by Finlay appearing out of nowhere clotheslining him!
Finlay tosses Dave back into the ring then runs off. Back in the ring, Booker has had a chance to get his act together and gives Dave a bookend and the cover for two before he manages to kick out. Booker covers again and then Booker straddles Dave with a number of eight punches to the side of the head. Booker gives Dave a high kick then goes for the cover again but only for a two count. Booker drags Dave to the side of the ring and half drags him out under the bottom rope. Booker exits the ring and from the floor, he gives Dave two big right arms against the throat and then the scissor kick and Dave just slides out of the ring. Booker tosses Dave back into the ring and follows him in as the referee had counted to 7.
Booker sizes up Dave and then gives him a kick to the jaw and covers him again for a near fall and then locks up the left arm of Dave in a submission hold. Dave manages to get to his feet but can't take any real advantage as he is kneed in the midsection. Booker whips Dave into the ropes but is met by a short clothesline as Dave comes out of the corner. Dave gives him another clothesline and then whips Booker into the corner and follows up with another clothesline for good measure. Dave gives Booker a power slam in the middle of the ring. Dave picks Booker up but is given a thumb in the eye again. Booker comes from the ropes but right into a slam by Dave who goes for the cover but only for a two count.

The Big Show is taken out by the weight of Booker and Dave collapsing on him! Dave tosses Booker back into the ring and is met with a kick to the midsection. Booker whips Dave across the ring and he ducks the attempted clothesline and bounces back with another spear on Booker. Dave goes to suplex Booker but he just manages to do it before the Big Show comes into the ring and headbutts Dave and the referee signals for the bell!
The Big Show clotheslines Dave as Sharmell from the outside of the ring is trying to get Booker to get out of the ring. John comes into the ring hitting Booker and then hitting into the Big Show and John runs into the opposite corner elbows Booker and then against across the ring doing the same to Big Show then another to Booker and another to Big Show as Dave is finally to his feet and beating up on Booker. John continues to hit the Big Show and finally gets him to his knee. Dave knocks Booker out of the ring and goes to follow but is called back into the ring by John and the two of them off the ropes shoulder tackle the Big Show to the canvas and he rolls out of the ring. Nicole and Rochelle join in with John and Dave and John takes off his "Chain Gang: Assault Battalion" t-shirt and throws it to the crowd. Then Smackdown General Manager Theodore Long's entrance theme played and he comes out from the curtain.
"Well, hold on there a minute, players," Theodore said onto the microphone. "Now, I don't know whether I can do this or not, but if I had my way, I would invite all four of you players to come back next week on Smackdown and then, we would have ourselves a hell of a main event. It will be the World Champion King Booker teaming up with the ECW World Champion the Big Show to take on the former champion Batista and Batista to team up with the WWE Champion John Cena."
Dave and John hugged each other and so did Nicole and Rochelle. They made fun of King Booker and the Big Show and the Big Show was pissed off. Then John and Dave raised their arms in the air along with Nicole and Rochelle and King Booker, Queen Sharmell, and the Big Show went to the back. Then John, Dave, Nicole, and Rochelle left the ring and walked up the ramp to the back.
"Okay, I feel a little bit better now that my fiancé is teaming up with yours," Rochelle said.
"Oh, yeah, it's going to be very exciting," Nicole said.
"And hey, Nicole, do you know where Smackdown is gonna be next week?" Dave asked.
"Oh, my God, St. Louis, Missouri. I'm going home next week."
"Hey, that's gonna be good for you," John said.
"Yeah."
"I'll bet it'll be even better for you when your St. Louis, Cardinals get into the World Series," Rochelle said.
"Oh, yeah, that will be even better for me. If that happens, I will wear something with their logo and something else red."
"Like?" John said.
"I don't know, either I'll pick something out or I'll design it."
"I wonder how the Big Show and King Booker will get along for the tag team next week," Rochelle said.
"Who cares?" Dave said. "I mean, Booker's got his backup and everything."
"Backup?" Nicole said. "The only backup he has now is Sharmell and you know the Chain Gang Divas and I are gonna take care of her."
"Speaking of taking care of somebody," Rochelle said, "Nicole, if you want, maybe you could take of a certain Guerrero for me. Now that Rey is gone, I feel that I don't have any energy to kick her ass myself."
"I'll do what I have to do for you and Rey. Somebody's gotta stop Chavo and Vickie because I have a feeling it's gonna get worse."
"Well, Rey is one of my best friends and if I had the chance, I'll kick Chavo Guerrero's ass myself because apparently, he's making an ass of himself for the pride of Eddie," Dave said.
"Yeah," John said, "one of these days, Chavo and Vickie will get what's coming to them."
