Here We Go!
Brotherly Hate-Chapter Thirty Two-Success, or Failure?
Jason was pumped up from the moment he woke up on Sunday, No Mercy was just a few short hours away and the teen had a chance to win his first title aged just seventeen. John was pumped as well, he wanted a win over MNM as much as anyone else, their actions against his brother and Mara had him practically shaking with anger every time he thought about it. They had home-field advantage over the champs, they had woke up in their own beds in their own home and had the chance to relax during the build up to the event, John doubted there'd be one person who wouldn't want them to bring home the gold tonight, he looked out the kitchen window at Jason, the kid was out in the back yard playing with a soccer ball, Mara sat in a chair watching him. "Tonight's the night Jason" he thought. "Tonight we bring the tag titles home!"
In the locker room later that night both brothers sat in silence, Jason could feel the nerves building once again, he could only compare the feeling he had to three other occasions, his match with JBL, he won. His first ever title match against Samoa Joe, lost in five minutes. And the time he went into the final match of a best of five series tied two-each with Chris Sabin, time limit draw. Tonight was the biggest night of his career so far, he wasn't gonna let it slip. The minutes slowly ticked away, it would soon be time for the match, Josh Mathews, sporting a black eye after his confrontation with MNM, approached.
"Jason, John, any chance of an interview before you go out there?"
Jason shrugged and looked at John, he nodded and followed Josh out of the room with Jason.
"Jason Cena, John Cena, we are just moments away from your match with MNM for the WWE tag team titles, now you have the home advantage tonight, but do you think that will be enough to take the belts off of MNM?"
John spoke first. "Josh, tonight is a big night for us, I have a chance to become a tag team champion for the very first time, my brother has a chance to hold his very first title, personally I don't think either of us could ask for a better partner than each other, we know every move that the other is gonna do, whether we have the home advantage or not doesn't matter, what does is that we, the Cena brothers are gonna be the NEW WWE tag team champions!"
Josh moved the mic over to Jason. "Jason, any thoughts?"
"Just one, Johnny Nitro, two days ago you tried to take me out! But you couldn't get the job done, eleven stitches? I can accept that, what I cannot accept is you hitting my girlfriend round the head with a steel chair, Nitro tonight I was gonna take your title, but now, I'm gonna take your professional career as well! And if you ain't down with that, then I got two words for ya… new champions!"
Josh finished off. "Well you've heard from both Cena's and they are just aching to get their hands on MNM, the WWE tag team titles are on the line, next".
As soon as the camera stopped rolling Josh grabbed Jason. "Jason, can you do me a favour tonight?"
"Sure Josh, what is it?"
"Kick Johnny Nitro's ass!"
Jason laughed. "Oh I intend to Josh, he's gonna be lucky if he's even walking after tonight!"
To the thunderous cheers of about thirty thousand members of the Boston public, Jason, Mara and John made their way to the ring, everywhere they looked it seemed the people were on their feet, instead of getting into the ring the Cena's stopped at the bottom of the aisleway and waited for MNM to come out. As soon as the champ's music hit they sprinted back up the aisle and met them as they came through the curtain, Jason took Nitro and John fought with Mercury, Jason brought Nitro back down to ringside and slammed his head into the steel ringpost, John threw Mercury into the ring and began to hammer him down. Jason went to whip Nitro into the steps but it was reversed sending him into them instead, he smashed into them with such force that they flew off their hinges; Nitro came over and dropped Jason with a DDT onto the bottom layer of the steps, as his head hit them Jason felt something tear in his head, he reached up and felt under the plaster and felt blood oozing over his fingers.
Back in the ring John continued to beat on Mercury, he whipped him and caught him with an elbow followed by a clothesline, he went to pick him up but Nitro came in, John ducked an attempted clothesline and gave Nitro a backdrop, he turned to Mercury but was met with a neckbreaker. MNM went for the snapshot early but John slipped out and knocked both men down before throwing Nitro out of the ring, Jason came in and the brothers hit a double spinebuster on Mercury. Nitro came back again but John caught him and went for his spinout powerbomb with Jason adding a neckbreaker for extra impact, John covered but Mercury broke it up.
John held the advantage over Nitro, he whipped him and hit a powerslam followed by a suplex for a two-count, he tagged in Jason and the two hit a double elbow followed by a double elbow drop, Jason hit a slam and went to the top-rope, he waited for Nitro to stand before coming down with a cross-body for a two-count, he tagged John back in and they hit a double DDT for another two-count, John went to hit the ropes but Mercury nailed him in the back of the head, John spun round and nailed him back but walked into a leg-lariat from Nitro for a two-count. Nitro tagged Mercury and the two hit John with a double suplex followed a leg drop by Mercury for another two-count. He picked John up and hit a northern-lights suplex for another two.
Melina began her screaming routine as Mercury tagged in Nitro, he came in and hit John with a backbreaker for a two-count, he then slammed John then charged across the ring and nailed Jason, the teen came into the ring but was stopped by the referee, as the two argued Mercury and Nitro put the boots into John before Nitro slipped out, Mercury hit DDT for another two-count and tagged Nitro back in, he hit a slam and put John in a sleeper, John tried to break free but soon dropped to the mat. Nitro increased the pressure by putting his feet on the ropes while the referee checked John, his hand fell twice but on the third he kept it up and began fighting to free himself, he elbowed out of it, knocked down Mercury and whipped Nitro, it was reversed and Nitro tried to put on a sleeper as he came off the ropes but John countered into a spinout powerbomb!
Both men were down and their partners began calling for tags, John started to crawl across the ring, just as he was about to tag in Jason Mercury distracted the referee, John made the tag and Jason jumped over the ropes to get in but the referee stopped him, the two began arguing again allowing MNM to double team John. Nitro tagged in Mercury and the two whipped John, they went for a double clothesline but John ducked and took them both out, he crawled to the corner and finally managed to tag in Jason! The teen came in and opened up on Mercury and Nitro, he sent Nitro outside and hit Mercury with a powerslam for a two-count, Nitro came back and got a reverse DDT, Jason then hit Mercury with a shining wizard for another two, Nitro came back again and received an impaler while Mercury got a neckbreaker for yet another two.
Jason was feeding off the crowds energy as the blood continued to flow down his face, he gave Mercury a slam and went up top, he came down looking for a frog splash but Mercury moved, Jason however popped a forward roll on landing and gave Mercury a superkick, Nitro came back again but received a slam, Jason then hit the ropes and set up for the five-knuckle-shuffle, he paused, looked at both men, made the DX sign and hit it on both of them! He called for the F-U and waited for Mercury to get up, Nitro got up first however, but Jason clotheslined him over the top, Mercury was now up and he charged Jason, but the teen ducked and lifted him up, he walked out to the centre of the ring and landed the F-U! He covered but Melina had the referee distracted, Nitro came in and nailed Jason in the back of the head with one of the title belts and rolled Mercury on top, he disposed of the evidence as the referee returned, he counted, but Jason kicked out!
Mercury rolled to his corner and tagged in Nitro, he came in and dropped a leg over Jason's neck, he covered but the teen kicked out, Nitro then ripped the plaster off and drove his knuckles into the cut to open it up more, after a while he stopped and began ripping at it instead, he then dropped a knee across Jason's head and tagged in Mercury. The two hit a double clothesline then Mercury dropped an elbow over the cut, he covered but Jason again kicked out, Mercury tagged Nitro back in, the two whipped Jason but he ducked an elbow and gave them a double reverse DDT! He crawled to the corner and tagged John back in.
The older Cena came in and went on a tear, he knocked both members of MNM down and gave Nitro a suplex for a two-count, he got up and clotheslined Mercury before slamming Nitro, he hit the ropes and landed the five-knuckle-shuffle, he lifted Nitro up for the F-U but Nitro slipped behind him and pushed him into Jason causing the two to clash heads, Jason fell to the ground and John spun round and walked right into the snapshot! Nitro covered… but John kicked out! MNM looked shocked but quickly recovered and went for another snapshot; John managed to escape and knocked them both down, he hit the ropes but Melina grabbed his foot, he spun round and pulled her up to the apron by her hair, before he could do anything Mercury nailed him in the back of the head, he dropped Melina and spun round to be met by a superkick from Nitro, Jason came back to the ring but was met by MNM, they pounded him into a corner and whipped him across the ring, they both followed but were met with boots, the teen then jumped to the top-rope and came down with a moonsault to both men.
All four men were down and Melina had seen enough, she grabbed one of the title belts and got into the ring, she prepared to nail John but Mara came in to intercept, Melina swung for her head but she ducked and gave Melina with an F-U! She kicked the title belt out of the ring and turned round to be met with a clothesline by Nitro, Mercury was up and Nitro called for the snapshot on Mara, he lifted her up but Jason charged across the ring and speared him taking the three of them out of the ring, the teen felt his back slam into the ground then the air be driven out of him as Mara landed on him. Back in the ring John was getting up, Nitro noticed and charged him but he ducked and lifted him up to his shoulders before driving him down with the F-U, he covered, the referee counted, and the Cena's had the tag team titles!
Jason and Mara were both up to their knees when they heard the three count being made, there was a moment of silence before John's music hit and Tony Chimel make the announcement to the Boston crowd.
"Here are your winners and the NEW WWE tag team champions, the Cena brothers!"
The next thing they knew they were hugging each other as the crowd went nuts, John rolled out of the ring and joined in the hug screaming.
"We did it kid! We fucking did it!"
The referee came round with the titles and handed them to the brothers, Jason looked at his and felt a tear come to his eyes, he quickly wiped it away and hugged Mara again, they rolled back into the ring and held up the belts for the crowd, John had a huge grin on his face as the adulation washed over them, Jason came up next to him and he slapped him on the shoulder.
"Worth the wait bro'"
Jason smiled. "Worth every damn day of it".
"The hardest part's yet to come you know".
"Don't worry, I didn't go through that match just to lose them in less than a month".
"Cool, c'mon let's go celebrate with the chain gang".
"Lead the way".
The brothers and Mara exited through the crowd, the new WWE tag team champions.
