Title: Things Need to Change
Show: Monday
Night Raw (1/2/2006)
Summary: While lounging in his office, Vince
McMahon finds himself faced with Triple H, who proposes two good
ideas to the boss.
Mr. McMahon enjoyed himself from the comfort of his office. He was not interviewing people for the General Manager's position tonight, because he felt like there was no point in doing that at the moment. It was about a month since he fired that meaningless waste Eric Bischoff. That Eric was famous for one reason and one reason only; he used to take crap from everyone else and kiss more ass than we could all count. But now, Vince was running the show again. Now, he was front and center. Now, he was able to personally see to it that Raw management doesn't take crap from anyone, since after all, he is Raw management for the while being. He got to see a very entertaining segment from Edge and Ric Flair, despite the fact that they just had to mention those other three guys that were involved in the rivalry, especially since two of them were part of TNA. But anyway, the fans seemed to react off it, and it was a great lead coming into their Intercontinental Championship match at New Year's Revolution. Not to mention coming out after Maria and Ashley's little problem with those three sly-spirited mean girls to name the bra & panties gauntlet match, along with everything else that already did and was about to go down tonight. Things were rolling fine. Suddenly, Vince's chilling was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Come in, and whoever it is, this better be good," Vince assured the person at the door, who then opened and entered his office. He then saw a man he knows all too well.
"Triple H," he acknowledged. "What can I do for you?"
"Hey, that was great what just happened out there with Ric Flair and Edge, right?" Trips asked in a bit of a cheerful laughing tone.
"Uh, yeah," Vince tentatively agreed. "But hey, you're the one who used to be his best friend. You should know well enough. Why are you asking me?"
"Vince, seriously. Did you see the look on Edge's face when Ric cut into that? And that entire scene was hilarious. He's talking about how he cares about himself and how he's on top of the world, and then yeah, he certainly proved it, at least the first part," Trips continued, still laughing. "Say, that reminds me. I got a couple of really great ideas. You do know about those two Diva matches you've got up your sleeve, right?"
"Yeah, you're talking about the bra & panties gauntlet match, and the Women's Championship match between Trish and Mickie, right?" Vince asked to make sure.
"Yeah," Trips said as his nods confirmed it. "I got a really good idea with that match. You see, I ran into a really hot woman the other day. Trust me, she's one of the most attractive things you've ever seen. Plus, I noticed something real good when I tried to come onto her. I was so unprepared for fighting she almost kicked my ass."
"Really?" Vince asked, his eyebrows lifting.
"Yeah. I was almost literally pinned by a woman," Trips joked half-wittingly.
"So let me get this straight; a chick catches you by surprise, and you think she's good enough for the big time. You think she's worth being here in the WWE," Vince summed it up.
"Yeah, I do. In fact, I'm sure of it. I think she should be a part of this company," Triple H continued, stubborn in his defense of this mystery woman. "However, she did have a stipulation."
"Yes?" Vince asked.
"She wants you to unify the gauntlet match with the Women's Title match, and put her in it" Trips revealed.
"Why should I do that for someone I don't even know?" Vince demanded. "I have no idea who this woman is, and she isn't even a part of this company. Yet she is making stipulations to me. No. I'm not doing it."
"You don't want TNA to make a big steal, do ya?" he asked. Vince immediately scowled at the thought of Total Nonstop Action making a noticeable coup, especially when it comes to hot women who can fight. So, he considered the mystery girl's offer a bit further before finally agreeing to it.
"Alright. I think we can work something out. Now, what the hell is in it for you?"
"Nothing at all," Trips answered, much to Vince's surprise, until the continuation. "Of course, that's putting aside the fact that I just found you a new WWE diva, and I feel that you should do something for me in return."
"And that would be…"
"My match with Big Show at the Revolution pay-per-view? Destroy that match, and put me in Carlito's place in the Elimination Chamber," Triple H said, with a more stern tone to it.
"Ah, so there was something in it for you after all. Well, I'll tell you what. Thank you for bringing me my new Diva. You may introduce her at New Year's Revolution. Good luck against Big Show. Have a nice day," Vince said, apparently trying to brush off the Cerebral Assassin.
"Wait a minute. I got you a new Diva. I won last year's Elimination Chamber match. I am the 10-time World Heavyweight Champion who basically led you to overtaking and destroying WCW. If it wasn't for my DX raid, Eric Bischoff would be ruling Monday nights. Also, putting me in that Elimination Chamber match is so much more worthwhile than placing me in the ring with an overinflated basketball player whose shooting hand is numb. I would absolutely destroy him in there. It's a no chance deal. And you mean to tell me everything I've done here does not merit a spot in this Elimination Chamber match?" Trips asked incredulously.
"No. I'm telling you that you had your chance to be in the Elimination Chamber already, but you screwed it up by toying around with the Big Show and giving him a reason to screw you. Now you two are in a match against each other. Go out there and deal with it. Thank you very much. Have a nice day," Vince stated with a bold tone. Back at the arena, fanatic reactions were at a high. "I told these people tonight that I'm not taking crap from anyone. And I absolutely meant that! Now, please! Get out of my office!"
"You know what, Vince? Things need to change around here. Such as me not getting my due credit for busting my ass off for this company. And I guarantee you one thing. Soon, things are gonna change," Trips promised the chairman of the board as he began to walk out of the room.
"Do you want to be put with Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels on my 'You're screwed' list?" Vince immediately asked the Game, stopping him in his tracks. The two then looked at each other intensely, before Triple H finally left without any words. But no sooner did he get out of Mr. McMahon's room than Triple H was met by the Big Show.
"So, what were you doing in Vince McMahon's office, Triple H?" Big Show asked. "Trying to slink your way out of that match with me?"
"Why would I need to slink out of a match with you, other than the fact that I could instead be inside the Elimination Chamber?" the Game asked.
"You tell me," answered the World's Largest Athlete. Triple H then gave him an insulting slap to the face, prompting Big Show to try to punch him with his right hand, which was covered in the most ridiculously large and dangerously strong cast ever created. Triple H ducked the impact, and the cast broke through the wall. Trips found a steel chair in the area and hit Show in the head with it, which stopped him a bit. The Game then proceeded to attack the crushed hand of the Angry Giant. Big Show was now releasing an outcry of pain.
"Stay the hell out of my business!" Trips yelled, before leaving the area. This, hopefully, taught Big Show an important lesson; you don't play the game, or you're letting the game play you.
