Raw: Apr. 27, 2009
I was in a great mood, having won the WWE Women's Championship last night at Backlash and also having a plan worked out to dominate the Divas Division. I have formed a stable that consisted of me and three other Divas, and we were going to reveal ourselves tonight. And, hopefully, I won't have a run in with Randy Orton, for my own sake, or any member of Legacy in general, but I knew it was likely that I would see them at some point tonight. Hopefully, it would be after my faction's debut later on tonight.
Eve and Natalya were having a match in the ring at the moment. Eve was about to tap out to Natalya's Sharpshooter, and everyone in the arena knew it, but they didn't know what was going to happen after that.
Eve then tapped out.
"Here is your winner, Natalya!"
Natalya helped Eve up afterwards, and they shook hands. Then, Eve kicked Natalya in the gut. That was our queue.
The lights went out for a second, and then Michelle McCool, Maryse, the WWE Divas Champion, and I were in the ring with Natalya and Eve too. Michelle grabs Natalya, who hadn't noticed our presence, and hits her with a Faithbreaker. Maryse then grabbed Natalya and hit her with a French Kiss DDT. Eve then got on the top rope and gave Natalya a moonsault that she'll never forget. It looked painful to me.
I looked at the camera. "This is for you, Randy."
I hit Natalya with a Punt Kick. Michelle got a red Sharpie marker out and wrote DoD on Natalya's forehead.
The four of us, Michelle, Eve, Maryse, and I, then all posed in the ring before making our exit. As we made it to the stage, all four of us raised our arms in the air together, signifying that we were working together now.
I smile as I realize I did it. My plan was a success. My faction, The Divas of Domination, have sent a message to the entire Divas locker-room. I agreed to meet Michelle, Maryse, and Eve in the Divas locker-room in a little bit. However, I am on my way to Catering right now.
I see Mickie James and a few other Divas in her little posse look at me. I look directly at them. I know they're talking about what happened. I was hoping that they would.
Since I was looking at them, I didn't notice that Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase Jr. were right behind me. Turning around, I found myself staring at Ted and Cody.
"Randy needs to talk to you." Ted says, obviously in a bad mood about something.
"I'm busy. Tell him he needs to make an appointment." I reply.
"He wants to talk to you now."
Ted and Cody grab my arms and start taking me to Legacy's locker-room.
"Let me go!" I yell, thrashing around, trying to get out of their grasp.
They tighten their grasps on my arms, and the next thing I know, we're at their locker-room.
Ted opens the door and escorts me into the locker-room. The moment I'm in there I see Randy Orton, leader of Legacy. He was definitely mad. That meant he saw what I did. Hopefully, that's all he wants to talk about.
"Put her down, Ted." Randy says in an authoritative tone, "and leave. I want to speak to her alone."
Crap. This isn't going to end well. Ted leaves the room.
Randy's full attention is on me now.
"Do you know why we need to talk?" Randy asks me bitterly. "Or do I need to explain?"
I look up at him. His icy blue eyes staring right into my deep blue ones.
"I know," I reply, "but I know you. You're going to explain anyway."
"Aren't you a smart cookie. Now I want to talk about your actions earlier."
"I knew that."
"Why did you use my move then?" His anger getting worse.
"Payback...because of the RKO."
"Because of what RKO?"
"The RKO you gave me back in 2006. You know, the one that cost me my WWE Women's Championship last time I had it and seven months of my career. I think you mentioned it when I ran into you last night."
He bent down, so that he was at my eye level. "We gotta talk about other things too. Stephanie McMahon put us in a storyline together."
"What?! A storyline?!"
"Yeah…a storyline."
I walked back to the Divas locker-room with anger. I can't believe Stephanie put me in a storyline with Randy. She was like the older sister I never had. She knows Randy and I don't get along. So what are her motives?
I walked into the locker-room to see only Maryse, no Michelle or Eve.
"Where are Eve and Michelle?" I ask Maryse.
"I don't know where Eve is, but Michelle ran off with John Cena, so you know she'll be all over him for awhile. Are you okay?" She replies.
"No...I'm not. Maryse, I got put into a storyline with Randy."
"Stephanie put you in a storyline with Randy Orton? Why would she do that?"
"That's what we are going to find out."
"We?"
"Yes, we."
Ten minutes later, we were in front of Stephanie's office. I knocked on the door.
"It's open." Stephanie says from behind the door.
We walk in the office to see Stephanie McMahon in a mood that was better than her normal moods.
"Well, look who it is. The Divas Champion, Maryse, and the new Women's Champion, Marissa, one-half of my new favorite Diva faction. What brings you in here?"
"This new storyline I just got word about." I say, wanting to get straight to the point.
"Yes...that. Please take a seat, and we will talk about it."
Maryse and I took seats across from Stephanie.
"So," Stephanie asks, "how do you like this new storyline?"
"I don't like it, Steph. You know I can't stand Randy Orton."
"I know, but have you seen the popularity rankings lately?"
"No. I never look at those."
Stephanie pulls out her laptop and pulls up the page that has the popularity rankings on it.
"This is the last list that came out." She hands me the laptop. I look at the Top Three.
1. Randy Orton (Of course.)
2. John Cena (Is always in the Top 3 so it's no surprise.)
3. Marissa (Wait...What?!)
"What? How?" I practically yell.
"That's why I wanted to do the storyline."
I look at Stephanie. "Fine, I'll do it. But I'm doing it for you, not Randy Orton."
"Okay. Thank you."
"So you're doing a storyline with Randy Orton?" Michelle asks me as we sit in the Divas locker-room.
"Yep." I say, popping the p.
"Why?" Eve asks me.
The Divas of Domination were all in the locker-room. I had called a group meeting to tell Michelle and Eve what was going on.
"Because," I reply, "Stephanie wanted me too."
"You could have said no."
"No, I couldn't."
"Why not?"
"Because it's Stephanie."
"So?"
"She is like an older sister to me, Eve. She really wanted this storyline. I couldn't say no to her."
"Okay, but are you sure you wanna put up with Randy Orton?"
"I'll be fine, Eve."
"But-"
"Eve, don't worry about it. Stephanie would never ask Marissa to do something she couldn't handle." Michelle tells Eve.
I looked at Michelle and smiled. She and I are really close. We both started in the WWE as contestants in the 2004 Diva Search, with her placing seventh and me placing fourth. We both were signed as WWE Divas at the same time, so we got to know each other really well. She was my first friend here, outside of Randy and John. She was my first Diva friend.
After we finished discussing the topic of my new storyline, I went down to Catering because I didn't get to earlier. They had cookies for once, so I grabbed a couple of cookies, even though it wasn't good for my diet, and sat at an empty table. It wasn't much later when Randy Orton came heading over to the table I was sitting at.
"Mind if I sit here?" Randy asks me.
"Go ahead. Nobody else is probably gonna sit here." I tell him.
He sat down. "So Stephanie told me you agreed to do the storyline. Is it opposite day or did I hear her wrong?"
"Neither, I agreed to do it."
"Why?"
"Stephanie really wanted to do the storyline, and I wasn't going to disappoint her." I notice that he was holding his shoulder. "Is your shoulder okay?"
He looked at his shoulder. "It's fine. Dave Batista just botched a move during our match last night."
I looked at Randy with the most concern I have had for him in a few years. "Are you sure it's okay? Have you looked at it?"
"I haven't looked at it, but I can assure you it's fine."
"Randy, you should probably have it looked at. You just won the WWE Championship last night. You don't want to risk an injury."
"I'm not going to the trainer. If you're really that worried about it, look at it yourself."
I was concerned, so I rolled up the sleeve of his t-shirt and examined the shoulder. It was bruising. "Randy, you're going to want to put ice on it. It's already bruising."
He gave me a small smile. "Thanks. I should probably go do that. See you around." He got up from his seat and left.
After that, I got up and headed back to the Divas locker-room, so I could leave to the hotel with Maryse, but before I could, I ran into WWE's resident mean girl group which consisted of Mickie James, Melina, Rosa Mendes, and The Bella Twins.
"So first you manage to get a shot at me for the WWE Women's Championship and win. Now you're kissing up to Randy Orton and have a storyline with him. You must be kissing up to get a push. What kind of person does that?" Melina says, wanting to start a fight with me.
"Oh please," I say to Melina, "Only you would have to stoop that low."
"What did you say, Bitch? I'm gonna-"
"That bitch ain't worth it, Mel." One of the Bellas says.
"Don't listen to her, Melina. What are you gonna do?" I say to antagonize Melina.
"She's gonna cash in her rematch clause next week on Raw and beat you because your victory was only a fluke." the other Bella replies.
"Really? I don't think so. I beat her in less than a minute and I could beat you even quicker."
"You really think so?"
The Bella Twin and I are about to get into a cat fight when Maryse, my fellow team member, stands next to me.
"How about we solve this on SmackDown in a tag team match? Marissa and Me versus The Bella Twins."
"You're on, Bitch."
