Saint Louis Boys must Stick Together

Chapter 4: First Day on Raw

Evan's Point of View

I was finally on raw and it was my first day I was excited and hoped I'd make some good friends. I already seemed to have one with Randy Orton but I wasn't going rely on that. I was going to try to make friends with as many people as possible. I quickly took my bag out of the boot of my car and head to the building, and am headed off by Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibiase.

"So you're the new boy here." Ted Dibiase said coldly.

"Yeah, I am." I replied worried about where this was going and hoping someone would come to my aid.

"Well I guess it's our job to put you into line." Cody Rhodes said as he struck me hard in the stomach. I doubled over in pain as the two members of Priceless kept beating me up.

"Get the fuck away from him you two" came the very familiar voice of my fellow Saint Louis native. He was pissed off by the sounds of it. The two bullies must have took Orton's tone as a warning because they took off as fast as they could.

"Evan, are you ok?" Randy asked kneeling down beside me.

"I'm a little sore is all. You scared them." I replied happy to have made a friend who people seemed to be scared of.

"I meant to scare those two. They need to learn they don't own this place, and they are walking on thin ice with me. Plus it's fun to make them squirm. Now let's get inside before they wonder where we are." Randy responded, standing back up then helping me up. We entered the building and headed to where everyone else where going over the scripts for the show that night. As soon as we entered the room stared at me. I looked around the room worried of what they thought of me. Randy seemed to pick up on my nervousness.

"Don't worry about what they think of you. You are here because you're a talented wrestler. You are worthy of being here and that's why your first match on Raw is going to be against me." Randy whispered in my ear.

I was happy Randy seemed to be trying to help me settle in. But I was anxious about that match. It was my first match and I was facing the WWE Champion. The reason I was part of Raw. Obviously Randy saw something in me that I just couldn't see myself. He said I was a talented wrestler but I didn't really believe him. I knew I must have some talent or I wouldn't be here but I knew I was nowhere near as good as Randy even if I wanted to be. I was too far in my own world to notice that John Cena was trying to talk to me.

"Hey Kid. What's with you seemingly sticking around Orton? What's in it for you?" John asked quite rudely.

"Randy is the first person actually to be nice to me, in case you didn't know I had no friends on ECW so it's good to have someone actually give me any of their time. What's it to you?" I replied wanting to know why Cena was asking.

"Sheesh kid, I was just asking. I just don't want people using Randy as means of getting ahead in this business then stabbing him in the back once they have finished with him again. Randy and I may not be friends but I hated what Dibiase and Rhodes did to Randy when the Legacy days. I'm just looking out for him so it doesn't happen again." John replied.

"Oh. Glad to see that you actually are trying to protect Randy but have you by any chance been warning people to keep their distance from him as well?" I replied.

"I warned a few people I knew were going to try to use him like Primo and Santino but other than the obvious users no I haven't. Orton just doesn't seem to make friends easily and has sort distanced himself from most of the locker room since Evolution then when he started to open up and trust people again the whole Legacy thing happened and he didn't know who to trust and thus shut out everybody." John replied with a sad smile.

"Have you ever tried to be his friend, John? I was talking to him before we had our match against Christian and Dreamer and he said that he was the loner of Raw and that he just wanted a friend." I replied.

"Not really but me and Randy never really got on that well but hearing you say that I think I might try." John replied, "I believe that you are not trying to use Randy. Good luck with your match tonight kid."

I smiled at Cena and said goodbye before leaving for my new locker room to prepare for my match tonight. I was glad Cena seemed to be looking out for his rival not wanting him to be treated the way he had been again. It seemed most of his career he had not known who to trust and when he did trust someone they stabbed him in the back. I felt bad for Randy and realized I probably had it better when I was on ECW than he has with all the fakes that just wanted to use him to further their careers.

It was now time for my match and I was extremely nervous. This was my first match on Raw and I knew I had to impress some people. I heard my music start and headed out to the ring. I made it to the ring and waited for Randy. Finally 'Voices' started and Randy came out looking as confident as ever. The fans started cheering him. Wow that's unusual, Randy was supposed to a heel and normally they would be booing him. I guess it could be the fact he stepped up and tagged with me on ECW, but I really didn't know. I felt like I was out of my league in this match and hoped I could make it through the match without make either myself or Randy look bad. The match started and I locked up for the first time ever. Randy seemed to be working so both of us looked good out there. I had Randy down and was about to hit him with my finisher move, The Airbourne when Randy managed to get up and catch me with an RKO and just like that the match was over. Randy did his little victory celebration and the fans were going crazy for him. I had watched Raw every week, and I hadn't seen even Cena get that sort of reaction from the WWE Universe. It looked like Randy replaced Cena as the face of Raw. Looking at Randy standing on the turnbuckle I could see he was just soaking in the cheers. Thinking about it, I realized it must feel real good to be cheered after only ever being booed for the last 5-6 years.

Randy's Point of View

This was weird, the fans were cheering me. I climbed up on the turnbuckle and did the pose I used when I was known as the Legend Killer, but rarely used when I became the Viper. I stood there for a few moments just sucking in the crowd's cheers. It had been a very good match and Evan had shown he was a worthy competitor in the ring. And was planning on telling him when we got backstage. I had just climbed down from the turnbuckle when 'Just Close Your Eyes' started playing. What the hell, why was Christian here. He wasn't supposed to be here. Well Evan had gotten up and was watching at the ECW Champion with a look of distain on his face. I quickly got myself a mic and went and stood by Evan.

"What are you doing here, Christian cause I know for a fact you're not supposed to be here, this is Monday Night Raw If you're confused." I said trying to insinuate that Christian was stupid.

"Yes I know this is Monday Night Raw, Randal Keith Orton. I'm here to get my pay back for you embarrassing me on ECW." Christian yelled into his mic.

" Christian, I've been talking to the World Heavyweight Champion, The Undertaker and asked for his assistance if you were to show up here tonight." I told Christian not even bluffing.

"Whatever… like that matters. He doesn't like you and I'm not afraid of him. I am the ECW Champion and am the most talented guy in this arena." Christian said arrogantly.

"He doesn't like you either and I managed to convince him I wasn't there to cause problems more deal with a problem we both have. But I think The Deadman can tell you how he feels about The ECW Champion." I replied confidently. The Undertaker's music came through the arena and the lights went out. When they came back up the Undertaker was in the ring with a mic in his hand.

The Undertaker's Point of View

I quickly took in Randy Orton's reaction, he seemed emotionless on the outside, but I could tell he was enjoying this. He wanted Christian to squirm as did I. On hearing Christian say he was the most talented guy in the arena, I had felt my blood boil. The guy was a disrespectful git. I knew who I saw as the most talented in this arena and I was afraid to admit it was the young Orton standing in the ring right now. I could see Christian was freaking out under his so-called confident look.

I decided to give Orton an ego boost even if he didn't need one just to spite Christian. "Christian, you sound so sure of the fact of you being the most talent one here. Well the only person in this arena I believe can say that here and now and not be a liar is Mr. Orton right here." I said calmly indicating the Viper standing slightly behind me. I saw Orton looked a bit stunned at my statement.

"You just gave one of the most arrogant superstars who think it is ok to walk on to another champion's brand and embarrass them an ego boost." Christian shouted back at me.

"You see I went through the right steps to get on ECW last week and if anyone embarrassed you it would be yourself." Orton said confidently watching both myself and Christian. So he didn't trust me fully, not that I blamed him. He had been turned on every time he trusted anyone completely.

"Christian, Orton has been more respectful to other champions than you have been. You are the exception to his rule of he must show the other champions a little respect because he sees no point in being respectful towards someone who won't respectful back." I said telling Christian a little home truth. If he wanted us to respect him, he was going to have to respect us.

"Christian, you are a bully who has no perception of the mess he has gotten himself into. Randy told me the same thing Undertaker just said last week on ECW. As for that punt to the head you received last week from Randy, you totally deserved it." Bourne said glaring at his former bully. I was proud of what Orton had done getting Bourne off of Christian and doing something that Christian could remove from his mind.

"Wow, Evvy. You believe Randy did the right thing by punting me in the head last week? The guy is a psychopath; he is an evil, twisted snake who enjoys kicking people in the side of the head for fun." Christian said almost matter-of-factly. He was correct in a way, Orton was all those things but he was also more thoughtful than Christian in a way. He planned things out before he did things.

"Christian, when it comes to bullies, you are worse than Orton 'cause no-one sees it coming with you. People see you as friendly and cool but your true colours are starting to show. You have made it seem like you were the nice guy. Orton has made his bullying behaviors quite clear. People know of Orton's bullying nature and try to work around it. And I would head back to where you came from unless you want to test our dislike of 'Captain Charisma'." I told Christian and watched him slink backstage with his tail between his legs before turning to the two Saint Louis natives that were sharing his ring with him and bidding them a good night.
