Hey everybody! Two updates in one weekend? Someone's working overtime! Thank you to everyone who has reviewed the story so far. Last time Jason ended up laid out again, despite having a concussion he got revenge, a tactic that earned John's anger and showed that tensions still lurk under the surface in the Cena family, Boogeyman didn't appear, but I'll forgive myself. Anyway will tensions rise again? What will Jason, John, Christian, JBL and Shawn do in the final week before 'The Bash'? Read and find out.
Here We Go!
Brotherly Hate-Chapter TwelveJason had fully recovered by the time he, John and Mara arrived in Colorado the next week. During his recovery period he was able to catch up on all the sleep he had lost, even if the nerves and doubts remained. When he walked into the arena along with his brother and girlfriend the first person to greet him was the GM of Smackdown Theodore R. Long.
"Jason! How're ya doing playa?"
"I'm good Teddy, all things considering".
"You feeling up to competing tonight?"
"Of course".
"That's good playa, cause tonight you and your brother are gonna have your final warm up matches, John will face Masters in the match that should of taken place last week".
"Let's hope it doesn't get called off this time" said Jason.
"Oh, I don't think it will playa, anyway, your match tonight is gonna be the main event, and it will be a one-on-one match between you, and your brothers opponent at The Great American Bash, Christian!"
"Christian?" Said John.
"Yeah champ, I can't think of a better warm up match for either of them, so Jason, what do ya say?"
"I say all the better for John, the CLB might not even make it to 'The Bash'".
"That's the kind of confidence I like to see playa, good luck tonight, both of you".
Teddy turned to leave but was stopped by Jason.
"Teddy, has JBL arrived yet?"
"No playa, he and the cabinet are running late and aren't gonna make it until after the show starts. Why?"
"Just wondering".
Teddy left and Jason went to do the same but stopped when he saw John and Mara staring at him.
"What?"
"What are you planning kid?"
"Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies. Oh, and I may miss your match John".
"That's cool, provided you don't do anything stupid".
"Stupid's my middle name bro', you should know that".
"Do you want me to come with you?" Asked Mara.
"Nah, I can handle it, see ya both later".
Jason spent the next half hour looking around the backstage area, he eventually found his target.
"Josh! How are you man?"
Josh Mathews looked up from his magazine in surprise.
"I'm fine Jason, you?"
"I'm good, I'm good. Listen Joshua, I need a little favour…."
Halfway through the show JBL's limo finally pulled into the parking lot, the man himself and his cabinet stepped out to be met by Josh Mathews armed with microphone.
"JBL, I was wondering if I could get a quick interview?"
The cabinet leader thought for a second. "You know what? I'm in a good mood tonight so I'll give you your interview" he turned to the cabinet. "Guys, I got this one, go on ahead. So Josh what are your questions?"
"Well I only have one and it is what thoughts do you have now that we're only three days away from the Great American Bash where you and Jason Cena will finally go one-on-one?"
"Well Josh my thoughts are these, Jason Cena! I know you can hear me from where you're cowering in your locker room, but listen kid, don't be afraid, cause this Sunday I'll end your fear and your pathetic joke of a career as well! So you might as well go buy yourself a pine-box because no one follows the killer! I am A WRESTLING….GOD! Anymore questions Josh?"
"No I got all I need".
"Alright" JBL went to leave, but suddenly a blur came out of nowhere to tackle onto the hood of his limo. The blur, or Jason, began to pound on JBL before pushing him to the ground, he picked the cabinet leader up and slammed him against the driver window, he then proceeded to stomp the hell out of JBL until several security guards pulled him off.
"Who's scared now JBL! Who's scared now!" He screamed over and over again as security pulled him out of the parking lot.
Jason walked into his and John's locker room a few minutes later, John and Mara were watching the monitor.
"I was just about to come looking for you" said Mara. "But then we saw your little run in with JBL".
"I think it's nice to give people a warm welcome, don't you?"
"Well kid" began John. "It's good to see you back to your old self but shouldn't you be warming up for your match with Christian?"
"Yeah, yeah, warm up for CLB I got ya".
"Speaking of which look who's on the monitor".
Jason and John both turned the screen to see Christian finishing his promo.
"…tonight Jason, Sunday John, You are looking at the next WWE Champion, because THAT'S…HOW I ROLL!"
John and Jason looked at each other. "Do me a favour kid" said John. "Kick his ass tonight!"
A short while later Jason made his way to the ring accompanied by Mara, once again he had to smile at the reaction he was getting from the crowd, when he climbed the turnbuckle in the ring the cheers only got louder. He did a few poses as a joke and once again the cheers got louder.
The fun was ended as Christian's music hit and the CLB made his way to the ring with Tomko in tow. When they got to the ring Jason jumped Tomko, leaving himself open to be jumped by Christian, when the referee managed to restore order Jason and Christian were brawling in the ring.
The match itself was back-and-forth until Christians Problem Solver decided to get involved, Jason had climbed to the top-rope with Christian down, but the CLB grabbed the referee and pulled him in the way, Jason didn't jump so Tomko came along and pushed him off. From then on Christian held the advantage but Jason, as was usual it seemed, would not stay down. Christian's frustration came to a head when Jason managed to kick out of his signature reverse DDT, after arguing with the referee for several seconds Christian went to pick Jason up but was met with a superkick out of nowhere.
Jason started to press his advantage and threw everything at Christian including a powerslam, flying cross-body and an impaler but Christian managed to survive all this and stage a fight back of his own, Jason put an end to that by charging through him with a clothesline and hitting the five-knuckle-shuffle. He called for an F-U but Tomko came into the ring and attempted to lay out Jason with another big boot, Jason managed to avoid the contact and clothesline him to the outside, the big man landed on his feet and tried to climb back into the ring but was jumped from behind by John. The older Cena had crept down to ringside unseen and was now beating on the Problem Solver, their little brawl distracted both the referee and Jason allowing Christian to recover his feet. The CLB nailed Jason from behind and attempted the Unprettier, Jason countered and pushed Christian into the turnbuckle ribs first, spun him round and connected with the F-U! He covered but the referee was still distracted by the John-Tomko fight, he climbed back to his feet and yelled for the referee to turn round. Suddenly he became aware of JBL entering the ring, he turned to face him and was met with the Clothesline-From-Hell. JBL rolled Christian on top of Jason and left the ring just as the referee turned round to make the three count. As soon as the bell rang JBL rolled back into the ring and began stomping on Jason, John returned to the ring to make the save and began pounding on the cabinet leader, Tomko returned to try and help but John managed to give him the F-U, JBL then attempted to nail John but the champ dodged and went for another F-U but Christian came from behind with a low-blow and landed the Unprettier. The final Smackdown before the Great American Bash ended with JBL standing over Jason and Christian doing the same to John while holding the title. Michael Cole summed it up.
"Both Cena's laid out! Will this happen again Sunday? Will Christian become champion?"
Well we've finally made it to 'The Bash'. So many questions yet to be answered such as, will Jason win? Will Christian become champion? Where the hell was Shawn? Will Boogeyman ever turn up again? All these and more will be answered in due course. Enjoy Wrestlemania everybody!
