So, it's the moment of truth! How do you all think that Eve will do during in-ring competition? Do you guys think the ring rust will be too much?
CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN
"The following is a six-woman tag team match scheduled for one fall!"
She looks good to me, she's got everything I want, everything I need!
"Introducing first, representing the Diva's Army, the team of AJ, Natalya, and Eve Torres!"
The three girls, dressed in their paramilitary camouflage and DIVAS ARMY tank tops, with Natalya having her hair in a bandana holding it slicked back, walked out onto the stage. They had slowly gotten more popular with the crowd, and with these three Divas, the crowd knew they could expect a good match no matter who DEAR put out for them.
AJ slid into the ring and smiled as she looked between Natalya and Eve. "Let's go, let's go!" she sang, earning a laugh from the other two girls as their theme song faded out, and DEAR's began to play.
Victoria, Maria, and Mickie James walked out dressed to compete, all of them in their normal attires, while Trish and Candice Michelle followed behind them. AJ looked a bit worried, then, because it was five to three, but it didn't bother her too badly. She knew she could take them with the help of her friends-besides, what was an army without backup plans?
"Keep this match a clean fight. I don't want to see any hair pulling, no eye gouging, and no weapons. Ring the bell."
AJ started the match off against Maria, easily keeping up with the unnatural redhead for a few. She managed to overtake Maria, and decided to allow Eve into the match. However, Maria slipped away from AJ and tagged in a fresh opponent for her, Mickie James. Mickie dove in, taking her down with a classic clothesline before pounding her face as hard as she could until the ref told her to move or risk disqualification.
Mickie stepped back into her corner and felt her shoulder be tapped. She was legitimately shocked as she turned around and Victoria had tagged herself into the match. "I just got in."
"No, Mickie. I just got in."
Trish and Candice snickered as Victoria got into the ring, and Mickie waved her hand for them to shut up while Victoria continued the beatings. Eve took these for a while, before getting a second-long chance to dive and tag in Natalya.
Natalya was fresh and hadn't been into the match, yet, so while Eve rolled down to ringside to lean against the apron and watch while she caught herself… Natalya was cleaning house against Victoria, who'd worn herself out a bit hurting Eve.
After a moment, Victoria got the better of Natalya once again, tearing her down until she could barely stand. She stood a few feet from the ropes, waiting, while Natalya slowly got to her feet, and then ran in to bounce off of them. Eve slid a hand across the mat, and Victoria fell to it, her face bouncing off of it.
It didn't take much more than that one slip-up to get Natalya a bit recovered. Nattie put Victoria into an inside cradle from there, winning the match, though Victoria moved out just after three. Natalya couldn't get out of the ring before Victoria, screaming, grabbed her by the hair and picked her up.
Eve and AJ were without words as they stood next to the commentary table, watching Victoria lift Natalya up and scream yet again, before dropping down and leaving her in the ring. DEAR had left the exits to the ramp blocked, and Victoria pointed at Eve. "Bring her to me!" she shouted as she rolled out of the ring, pulling the aprons off of it and revealing everything underneath it.
Seconds later, she was ripping off the padding from ringside, leaving only the concrete floors where it once was.
"Victoria, don't do it!"
"You've got to think better of this!"
"Run, AJ!"
The commentary table was up in arms, screaming for DEAR to rethink their actions, and for the last remaining woman of the Diva's Army to leave. Natalya had been rolled out of the ring while Victoria was working the padding, so instead of leaving, AJ was tending to her friend and teammate, watching in horror at what happened next.
Victoria grabbed Eve by the hair and punched her square across the face while Trish and Mickie held her back. She went a bit more limp, and then the two girls holding her hoisted her up while Candice and Maria kept a watchful eye on AJ and Natalya, mere feet away.
The commentary table began to scream bloody murder once Eve hit the floor from the first triple power bomb. But, they were screaming even louder, yelling for the medics, and security, and everything possible, while Eve went down for a third.
Candice and Maria were working on AJ and Natalya at this point, so that they couldn't go help Eve, but down the ramp came the Diva's Army, running around or through the ring to get in the way and stop it from happening a third time as they tore into Candice, Maria, and Mickie. Victoria and Trish had been smart enough to leave, but once the Diva's Army began to focus on their friends, the three other girls of DEAR managed to escape through the audience as well.
Victoria was laughing as Trish pulled her through, the other girls running to catch up, as Alicia began to cry out.
"Medic! We need a medic!"
Kaitlyn held her arms over her head in an "X" while referees, medics, and security ran down. An ambulance was backed up so that it was next to the stage, and a stretcher was brought down to ringside. Alicia was sobbing as the medics picked up Eve, bleeding from the mouth and unconscious, and put her on the stretcher to take her out.
"Please don't hurt her!" Alicia sobbed, as Tamina put her arms around her and held her close. Jerry Lawler stood up, shaking his head, and stepped into the fray. Everyone expected a perverted comment or two, but instead, he spoke quietly.
"Take Alicia out of here, and take Natalya and AJ with her. The rest of you, help me fix this…" He kneeled down slowly, and began to move the padding back into place, while the plan was executed the rest of the way.
"Thank you, Jerry." Kaitlyn said after the other girls had been taken away, and the padding was put back. "I owe you a favor. But not the kind you're thinking of." Kaitlyn then turned around and headed with the other leftover girls to the stage, where the Diva's Army had gathered to watch Eve be loaded into the ambulance. "Let's get out of here, guys…"
Let's be honest: no one was expecting that. I'm sure that some of you expected failure or a let-down, or at least some violence after that little bout on Twitter, but a vicious attack like that? Do you think that Eve will be okay? Or will she be out of in-ring action permanently? Also, DEAR runs away from a challenge with the Diva's Army, escaping through the crowd. What do you think's going to happen next? Let me know with a review or a message!
