Night of Champions: September 18, 2011
Randy, Cody, and I made it over to the area by the ring. The company was wanting before and after pictures of the champions tonight here at Night of Champions. Since Cody is the Intercontinental Champion, Randy is the World Heavyweight Champion, and I'm the Divas Champion, we had to be there. Dolph Ziggler, Evan Bourne, Kofi Kingston, and Alberto Del Rio are also there for the picture.
As we are all in a position to take the picture, Alberto decided to make a comment. "Why is she front and center? I'm the WWE Champion. I'm the face of the company. Not her."
I turn to look back at Alberto. "Why are you here? None of us even like you."
Alberto rolls his eyes. "Orton, tell your wife to watch her tone."
Randy gives Alberto a dirty look. "My wife can do whatever she damn well pleases. If you don't stop being an ass, her tone will be the least of your worries."
Alberto glares at Randy. "Is that so?"
The photographer looks at us. "Picture, now."
We all pose for the photo to be taken. As soon as that's done, Alberto walks backstage.
Randy pulls me into his arms. "He's such an asshole."
"I most certainly agree." I reply. "Ya know we haven't pranked in a while."
"Are you suggesting what I think you are?"
"If you're game. I did it to him last year, and you got all mad about it. This way, it's a joint effort. Plus, you might fully forgive me for it finally."
Randy rolls his eyes. "I already forgave you. I think we should do it though. Let's prank him."
"Okay. We'll prank Alberto."
"I can't believe I forgot."
"Forgot what?"
"I never made John do anything after our deal last year that whoever made their significant other tell first could make the other one do them a favor."
Cody looks at us. "I smell a scheme. We still have a few days of all of us being together."
"I have no idea what I'm going to make him do."
"If you let me in on this, I'll help brainstorm. Let's embarrass him."
Randy smiles. "Deal. Will you take a pic of me and Rissa in front of the ring?"
Cody smiles. "Sure."
I put on my ring gear in our locker-room. "I heard we're in back-to-back spots on the match card."
Randy looks at me as he's stretching. "Which one of us is first?"
"I heard it was you."
"Oh. Just promise me you'll be in guerilla after it's all said and done. You're the first person I want to look at after my match against Mark Henry."
"Of course I will be. I'm supposed to be anyway, but even if that wasn't the case, I'd be there."
"Thanks."
"I know you already said that you have a plan, but please, be careful."
"I will be careful. I want to have a great night with you. I have to be able to do things."
I smile. "Okay, Randy."
I look at John as the majority of our friend group was watching Randy's match against Mark Henry. "I don't like this."
John looks at me. "Honestly, me either."
Chelle puts her arm around me. "This isn't looking good at all."
"It isn't." I say. "Are Eve and Ryse talking to each other?"
Chelle glances behind us. "Yes. That's good. I thought maybe they wouldn't be because of what Cody did during the Intercontinental Championship match between him and Ted to retain."
"Yeah. It wasn't right. Eve has also been so quiet lately. Hell, I'm surprised she's still willing to come to ringside tonight."
"She's being hard on herself for losing some matches. We've been there. She'll get through it."
"I hope so."
Mark lifts up Randy and hits him with a World's Strongest Slam. He pins Randy.
1…2…3!
"Here is your winner and the NEW World Heavyweight Champion, Mark Henry!"
"Oh no." I whisper before making my way close to the curtain.
Mark arrives backstage and looks at me. "Tell your man that if he tries to get this back, I'll do a lot worse to him than I did tonight."
I don't reply to Mark, but I watch him walk away. Randy makes his way backstage. I immediately find myself in his arms.
Randy holds me close. "I'm not injured. I was careful enough."
"I know. Mark said something to me when he came backstage."
Randy tenses up. "What did he say to you?"
I look at Randy. "He told me tell your man that if he tries to get this back, I'll do a lot worse to him than I did tonight."
Randy kisses my forehead. "I'm gonna kick his ass for talking to you like that. It should be a given that I'm going to try to get my World Heavyweight Championship back."
I smile. "I know."
Randy wraps his arms around my waist. "Stop worrying about what happened to me and worry about your own match tonight that's literally about to start right now."
("Glamazon" plays)
"The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the WWE Divas Championship! Introducing first, being accompanied by Natalya, from Buffalo, New York, The Glamazon, Beth Phoenix!"
Beth and Natalya make their way to the ring.
I kiss Randy's cheek. "Watch my match. Please be here in guerilla when I'm done."
Randy smiles. "Absolutely."
Eve walks into guerilla. "Let's do this."
I know I want that girl so bad
I lie awake at night
And think of all the things that I would do
With a girl like that…
"And her opponent, being accompanied to the ring by Eve, from Saint Louis, Missouri, she is the WWE Divas Champion, Marissa Orton!"
I make my entrance with Eve behind me. I watch Beth as I enter the ring. I hand the referee my Divas Championship. He shows it to both me and Beth before holding it up. He then passes it to Eve to hold.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Beth and I lock up. She gets me into a corner.
1!
2!
3!
4!
The referee forces her off of me. She grabs me and Irish Whips me into the opposite corner. I fall down to the mat. Beth lifts me up over her shoulders and drops me down in the middle of the ring. Beth pins me.
1…kickout!
Beth grabs me and throws me shoulder first into the ring post. I fell out of the ring.
Natalya was approaching me as I was starting to recover. Eve comes around to check up on me.
1!
2!
Natalya and Eve start arguing. Natalya shoves Eve over.
3!
4!
Eve and Natalya start fighting on the outside of the ring. I slide back in the ring as Beth and the referee are watching Eve and Natalya.
The referee glares at Eve and Natalya. "You two are out of here!"
Beth starts arguing with the referee over his decision to eject Natalya. I sneak up behind her and roll her into a pin.
1…2…kickout!
I quickly drop Beth with a Dropkick before hitting her with a DDT. I attempt to go for an Armbar, but Beth kicks me off. She takes me down with a Clothesline and pins me again.
1…kickout!
Beth grabs me by my hair and throws me across the ring. I grab onto the corner to get up. Beth runs at me and drives her shoulder into my gut. I groan in pain. Beth goes to grab me, but I elbow her in the gut and shove her out to the apron. I grab Beth by the hair and hit her head off of the ring post. I grab her and drag her back in by the ropes. I drop her with Randy's signature draping DDT and pin her.
1…2…
Beth gets her foot on the rope. I go to move her further away from the ropes. Beth rolls me into a pin.
1…kickout!
Beth hits me with a Clothesline. She then Irish Whips me into the corner. She runs at me, but I move out of the way. I grab her and move to the middle of the ring. She shoves me and goes to Clothesline me, but I duck. She runs at me, but I grab her and hit an Arm Drag. She gets up, and I kick her in the gut before hitting her with a Chaotic Ending. I pin Beth.
1…2…kickout!
I groan. I go to grab Beth, but she Headbutts me. I stumble back. Beth gets up. I attempt to Clothesline her, but she ducks and grabs my arm. Beth lifts me up and hits a Glam Slam. Beth pins me.
1…2…kickout!
I lay on the ground. Beth grabs me and gets in my face.
"I'm going to annihilate you just as bad as Randy was annihilated by Mark Henry." Beth says.
I headbutt Beth. She stumbles back. I Clothesline her. I stomp on her. I pull Beth towards the middle of the ring and lock in Michelle's Heel Hook. Beth and I struggle, but she makes it to the ropes. I break the submission.
Beth and I both get up. I use the ropes for momentum to run at her, but she grabs me and takes a page out of Mark Henry's book. She hits me with a World's Strongest Slam and pins me.
1…2…kickout!
I struggle to get up. Beth runs at me. I duck and kick her in the gut before I hit her with a Pedigree. I pin Beth.
1…2…kickout!
I slam my hands on the mat. Beth throws me into the corner. I run out of the corner and attempt to Clothesline her, but she grabs my arms and hits me with a Killswitch. Beth pins me.
1…2…kickout!
I plant Beth with a DDT before grabbing her and hitting her with Ted's Dream Street finisher. I pin Beth.
1…2…kickout!
Beth smirks at me as we both get up. I run at her, but she Clotheslines me. She then lifts me up and hits another Glam Slam before pinning me once more.
1…2…kickout!
I lay on the ground in pain. I honestly don't know how I kicked out. I slowly start getting up and, out of the corner of my eye, see Beth watching me and preparing for a move. From what I could tell, it looked like it was going to be a Spear. That I could counter. I act like I don't notice, so Beth will attempt to do the move. Beth goes for it, but, taking a page out of Randy's book, I catch her with an RKO and pin her.
1…2…3!
"Here is your winner and STILL the WWE Divas Champion, Marissa Orton!"
