"Are you expecting someone?" Tyson whispered before he made his way to the door.
"No, Beth has a match right now, which I should be watching instead of arguing with you."
Finally the door was opened the rest of the way, and Tyson and Natalya were both surprised to see Punk standing there. When no one made a move to talk, Punk took his chance.
"Hey Nattie, can I talk to you for a second?"
Still nothing; her face seemed frozen in surprise. It was no secret that she had taken Beth's side when everything between her and Punk went down and that was something that he had liked about her; she never left her friend's side.
"Anything to have to talk to her about, you can say it in front of me." Tyson said with an overprotective tone set in his voice.
"Okay, Natalya, I had this strange idea that I'm getting ready to pitch to Vince right now. Instead of having the same old Punk vs. John Cena as the main event tonight, I was thinking about a mixed tag team match. I've already talked with Cena and he agreed, all that I have to do now is find a partner and then we all talk to Vince."
"So why are you bringing this up? She is a manager not a wrestler now."
"Is this true Natalya? That was why I came to you, I was going to ask you to be my partner, but if you are just strictly a manager now I've just wasted your time." Punk said as he turned to leave and counted to three.
"Wait! I would love to be your partner! When is the match?"
"That's great, and it's right after…"
"What? No, Natalya you have to walk Justin and me out to the ring next. You don't have time to do both since the main even is after our match."
"…the tag team tournament match that is after the Divas match." Punk finished.
"You know what Tyson; I am so overly sick and tired of you constantly putting me down. As my boyfriend of over ten years, you should be more supportive of me. I went through the same dungeon you did and it instilled a lot of confidence, as well as other things within me. It taught me not to take shit from anyone, anytime or anywhere."
"Where are you going with this Natalya?"
"See, there it is again! Here I am trying to express myself to you and you could care less." Natalya yelled right in Tyson's face, but took a step back to try to compose herself and so she wouldn't slap the ever living shit out of Tyson.
"Where I was going with all of this is, Tyson I am done with being your eye candy ringside. I am done with how you treat me when we are around other wrestlers. I am done with everything that has to do with you."
"What are you saying?" Tyson asked, completely oblivious to the situation.
"Dude, she's breaking up with you! How can you not see it?" Punk inserted as he faced Tyson. He couldn't help but to smirk at his pissed off expression.
"Punk is right, I'm sorry Tyson, but you left me with no choice. Punk, I would be more than happy to be your tag team partner." Natalya said after apologizing and confidence returning to her voice as she shoved past Tyson and stopped next to Punk on her way back to the Divas locker room.
"Thanks for this Punk. I really appreciate it." then she continued on.
After watching Natalya walk away, and he couldn't help but stare at her assets as she did so, he turned his attention back to Tyson. Seeing that his facial expression was mixed between pissed off and hurt, Punk just laughed in his face.
"Get the fuck out of my locker room Phil before I kick your ass!" Tyson yelled as he pointed out the door.
"Ha! I would like to see you try, but I have to go find the big boss man to get my match with your girlf-, er I mean your ex-girlfriend official. Good luck in your match tonight." Punk chuckled as he went to hunt Vince down.
"Phil that is a great idea! I've been looking for a creative outlet to get Natalie back in the spotlight, and I think this just may work out!" Vince bellowed with a chuckle.
"Really?! You usually hate my storyline ideas." Punk said with a confused look on his face as he scratched his head.
"You're right, I usually do, but this time it's great. Like I said, I've been itching to have Natalie back in the championship hunt, but creative has not been able to come up with anything. Plus you know as of late, the Divas division has sucked; I'm not going to lie. With Elizabeth on her way out at the end of October, we really have nothing."
"Have you been paying any attention to what people are saying on Twitter about Beth and Natalya?"
"No, what have they been saying?"
"They wanted, and still want to see Beth and Natalya face off. They wanted to see the two of them wrestle for the Divas championship at WrestleMania, but you didn't capitalize on it. Instead, you placed Beth in a tag team match with Eve going up against Kelly Kelly, who can't wrestle or run the ropes to save her life, and, pardon my French but, fucking Maria Menounos! Then to top everything off, you had Kelly pin Beth, the Divas Champion! That's why no one cares about the Divas."
"As much as I hate to say this, you are completely right. That's why for the SmackDown tapings tomorrow night, I'm going to pit Beth versus Natalya and then let the storyline of 'who attacked Kaitlyn' lead to the demise of their friendship. Ultimately what will happen is that for Beth's final match, it will be the two of them facing off in a 'loser leaves WWE' match. How does that sound to you?" Vince asked hopefully.
"Honestly, it's been done before. That's what you had written up for Michelle McCool when she left and it's not the way to let Beth go out."
"Okay, then how do you see her final match playing out?"
"With all past emotions and drama behind, I think that the best way to send Beth off is to have her announce her retirement on Smackdown the week before and then have her face Natalya with Beth coming out on top. Then just let the emotion from the two competitors out. In my opinion, that is the best way to give her the send-off she deserves."
"Phil, you have convinced me. I will have a meeting with Elizabeth and my creative team to crank out her retirement match against Natalie. Good luck in your match with Natalie tonight. This will only lead to better things for her all because of you."
"Thanks Vince, I appreciate your help with all of this. Natalya deserves it."
"That she does, now go on before I change my mind." Vince said as he went back to his usual uninterested demeanor and walked off with a bellowing laugh.
