Chapter 133: Angelic Justice
RAW was in Birmingham, Alabama and John was teaming up with a partner of Vickie Guerrero's choice against the Miz and the Big Show.
Buffy was alone in the Angels' locker room checking herself out in the mirror wearing her Miss Wrestlemania crown and sash when…….
"Looking good, mamacita," Eddie Guerrero said.
"Thanks, Eddie," Buffy said. "Thanks, Eddie?"
Then Buffy turned around to see Eddie Guerrero and she screamed as she went to the corner.
"Get away from me!" Buffy shouted.
"Whoa, whoa, I'm not gonna hurt you," Eddie said. "I haven't put my hands on you, come here."
"No, you're dead, don't come any closer."
"Buffy, Buffy, relax; I'm not gonna hurt you, come here."
Then Buffy slowly walked towards Eddie and then Eddie took her head."
"See?" Eddie said. "I told you I wasn't gonna hurt you."
"This is a dream, right?" Buffy said. "This has to be a dream; no, it's not because I remembered something. You've been checking up on the other Angels lately, haven't you?"
"Yes, I have; I hate to see them so depressed so I have to come here and encourage them; you, you probably don't need any encouragement. I mean, you're Miss Wrestlemania and you'll probably have to defend that title after Extreme Rules."
"Against who? 'Santina Marella?'"
"Maybe, of course we all know it's Santino Marella dressed in drag."
"Yeah, apparently embarrassing to him, but him standing up to Vickie Guerrero and calling her a pig, we'll let him get away with that.
"Hey, I got another idea; why don't you pass this along to the Angels for the Hog Pen match at Extreme Rules?"
Then Eddie whispered in Buffy's ear and Buffy smiled.
"Oh, that is a great idea," Buffy said.
"Maybe that oughta teach my wife a lesson," Eddie said.
Then Eddie laughed as he went through the mirror as he disappeared.
"Bye, Eddie," Buffy said, "and thanks. Oh, my God, this definitely wasn't a dream.
A little later, RAW was on and Cody Rhodes was inside the steel cage because Dave was set to face one of Randy Orton's fellow members of Legacy and to determine who would take on Dave, Randy flipped a coin between Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase and it was Cody who won the toss.
Dave's entrance theme played and he came out from the curtain with Rochelle following him.
Rochelle was wearing a lavender mini strapless dress with a black shoulder overset, black boots, and her hair curled. Dave did his thing with the pyro with Rochelle kneeling in front of him and the two walked down the ramp and Dave got inside the cage and then the referee called for the bell.
Cody backed into the corner as Dave smiled and Cody immediately kicked Dave in the midsection and Cody went to hit Dave's head on the cage wall but Dave blocked and shoved Cody down and Cody tried to climb the wall to get out, but Batista yanked him back down to the mat and Dave was chasing Cody all over the ring and Cody kicked Dave in the midsection and went for a DDT but Dave blocked and Cody rolled onto the ring apron and Dave went after him and Cody raked Dave in the eyes and went to hit Dave on the cage wall again but Dave pounded Cody's back on the cage wall three times.
Dave then got a foot choke and Dave got some shoulderblocks and whipped Cody to the ropes and Cody kicked Dave in the face and bounced off the ropes and Dave darted Cody on the cage wall and Dave bounced off the ropes and he landed a spear and then Randy Orton slowly made his way down to ringside and Dave looked at him as he grabbed Cody and landed a spine buster and Dave looked at Randy as Cody tried to take advantage of Randy's distraction to escape by climbing out but Dave grabbed him and got Cody on his shoulders as Cody held onto the cage wall and Dave delivered a Batista Bomb out of the corner for the win.
Then Dave stared down at Randy with a smile and then Dave got on the turnbuckle and climbed to the top of the cage and raised his arms in the air before he got back down and then his arms were raised by the referee as Dave stared at Randy as RAW went to a commercial break.
A little later, it was for the Divas' Tag Team match which was Mickie James and Kelly Kelly versus Maryse and Beth Phoenix.
Every Diva made their way to the ring when Lillian Garcia made this announcement.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the special guest referee for this match, the Divas' Champion, Brittany Swanson."
Brittany's entrance theme played and she came out from the curtain and she was wearing a referee uniform which was the top with the bottom tied, black boy shorts, black net stockings, black hand warmers, and her hair curled. Brittany walked down the ramp slapping the hands of the fans and got into the ring and Maryse was hand gestures as Brittany smiled.
Mickie was chasing Maryse out of the ring and Maryse grabbed Mickie's hat and tossed it away as she smiled and Mickie went behind Beth in a waistlock and got Beth in a side headlock and climbed the top turnbuckle and went for a bulldog slam and Beth countered and went for a clothesline but Mickie ducked and got a dropkick to Beth's leg and bounced off the ropes and got a dropkick to the face for a two count. Then Mickie twisted Beth's arm and made the tag to Kelly and Beth shoved Mickie as she and Kelly had a staredown as Beth kicked Kelly in the midsection and lifted her over her head and Kelly escaped and Beth charged at her in the corner but Kelly moved and got a head scissors takedown for a two count and Kelly bounced off the ropes and Beth got a backbreaker for a two count and Beth hit Kelly's head on the turnbuckle as she made the tag to Maryse.
Beth held onto Kelly as Maryse kicked Kelly in the midsection and got a forearm before she slammed Kelly's face down on the mat. Maryse applied a came clutch and Kelly escaped and Maryse held onto her leg and Kelly got an enzuguri for the cover but Beth broke the count stomping on Kelly as Mickie leaped off the top turnbuckle with a Thesz press and Beth rolled out of the ring apron. Rosa was on the ring apron as Beth pulled Mickie off and Brittany landed a hard forearm sending Rosa to the floor and Kelly got a baseball slide on Beth and Maryse kicked Kelly in the midsection and Maryse went for a DDT but Brittany grabbed her hair and kicked her in the midsection and landed the Twist of Fate and pulled Kelly on top of Maryse for the pin .
Then Brittany looked down at Maryse and back at Beth and Rosa as Mickie got into the ring and helped Kelly Kelly up and then Brittany raised the two Divas' arms in the air as Beth and Rosa walked away. Then Brittany and Mickie tossed Maryse out of the ring and Maryse got upset as she just simply walked away and Brittany smiled as RAW went to a commercial break.
A little later, Ric Flair was in the parking lot walking around by himself.
After the coin toss by Randy Orton, Ric made an appearance and wanted to face Randy to a "Fight to the Finish" in the parking lot, a challenge which Randy readily accepted.
Then Dave and Rochelle walked towards Ric.
"Don't," Ric said. "Don't say a word. Instead of looking at me like that, you should be saying 'Thank you, Ric,' because I'm going to be Randy Orton's brains out tonight before he even gets to Extreme Rules."
"I don't get it, man," Dave said, "you don't have anything to prove to anyone."
"You don't get it, do you? That's exactly why I have to do it. I have a lot to prove; Dave, people have forgotten. I said I'd never retire, I had to retire, it happened. But I missed what I've loved so much my entire life, 35 years, I went to the ring knowing I was the best there was. There are already days I go to bed and every morning I wake up wanting to be Ric Flair one more time. It's nothing to laugh about."
"You're the man, you're the man……."
"You tell me I'm the man one more time, I'm going to vomit. A lot of people forgotten what I used to be, I need to prove it to myself and I need you to understand something, okay? I want you to let Ric Flair be himself one more time, please? Don't worry about me getting beat up. I've been beat up before, okay? I'm going to get some licks in tonight and I promise you I'm gonna wear Orton out, okay? I'm promise you I'm gonna make you proud. I promise you that I need you right now, look at me, I need you not be my hero, okay? Not my running mate, I need you to be my friend, I need you to believe that Ric Flair can go out and do this like he used to. That's what I need, a friend that believes in the Nature Boy."
"Ric, you're my friend, you're my mentor, and I love you. I have and I will always believe in you."
Then Dave and Ric hugged each other.
"Thanks, man, that's what I need, a friend," Ric said. "That's all I needed."
Then Dave and Ric slapped each other's hand.
"See ya," Dave
"I'll make you proud," Ric said.
"Be careful," Rochelle said.
Then Dave and Rochelle walked away.
A little later, John and Nicole were walking down the hallway for John's tag team match.
Earlier, Vickie Guerrero consulted with Chavo Guerrero and the Big Show in her office and decided to pit the Big Show and the Miz against John and a randomly selected superstar. Though the Big Show was reluctant to team up with the Miz, the tables turned in his favor when John's partner was revealed to be none other than Chavo.
Then John and Nicole stopped short to see Chavo Guerrero
"Hey, partner," Chavo said as John sneered in his direction. "What?"
Then Nicole spooked Chavo as she and John walked away.
"Don't be like that, man," Chavo said. "Where you going? John, I got your back. I guaranteed you we're going to win."
Back at the arena, the Miz's entrance theme played and he came out from the curtain with a microphone in his hand and he posed raising his arms in the air and he said,
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, this is a golden age in the WWE because the Miz is 6-0 against the corporate, sell-out, brown-noser John Cena. Cena has captured the hearts of millions of 9-year-old kids…..," Then the Miz got in the ring. "…….but he'll never capture back his self-respect. You see, these little kiddies love John like the Jonas Brothers and Spongebob Squarepants. So congratulations John, you made it, you're in the same category as Hannah Montana. Well, the Miz is in a category all by myself. I want you all to look to the person on their left and now look at the person on your right, now look at the person who stands before you in this ring because this is what a winner looks like. I plan on going 7-0 because he's the Miz and I'm awesome."
Then the other competitors made their way down to the ring and the referee was holding everyone back and the Miz said he wanted to face John to start, but the Big Show grabbed the Miz and told him to stand on the ring apron and stay out of his way. Then Nicole warned Chavo as the two got out of the ring and the referee called for the bell.
Big Show went for a right hand but John ducked and landed some right hands and he bounced off the ropes and Big Show got a side slam and was stalking John as he punched him in the midsection and clubbed him in the back and got a scoop slam before he head butted John and stalked John for a submission hold, but John squirmed underneath Big Show and went for the STF but couldn't apply it and Big Show flung him to the outside.
Big Show distracted the referee and then the Miz punched John on the floor and Big Show saw what happened as he ran after Miz and Miz flew off the ring apron and Big Show told him not to touch John and John slowly made his way back into the ring and then Big Show got another head butt and he whipped John to the corner and he tried to counter a splash with a scoop slam, but Big Show fell on top of John for a two count.
Then Big Show got a couple of knees to the head and bounced off the ropes as Miz then blind-tagged himself and Big Show turned around and looked at Miz as he got a legdrop and he went after Miz as he tried to sneak in a pin but John kicked out and then Miz looked at the Big Show as John went to the corner and Miz was unloading on John as the referee pulled him back and Miz looked at Big Show and got a clothesline in the corner before landing some right hands and kicks on John for another two count.
Miz again was looking at Big Show and went for a right hand but John blocked and fought back with right hands then John bounced off the ropes and landed two shoulder tackles and got a sideslam and did the "You can't see me" and bounced off the ropes to land the Five Knuckle Shuffle. Then John went for the Attitude Adjuster but Big Show blind-tagged himself and the referee didn't see the blind tag as John landed the Attitude Adjuster and Big Show grabbed John by the throat and landed the choke slam.
The referee disallowed Big Show's involvement and Big Show dragged Miz to the corner for him to tag him in but Miz wanted no part of a tag. Miz turned around and Big Show blasted him with a big right hand and then Chavo blind-tagged himself in for his first involvement in the match and covered Miz for the pin and the win.
Nicole put her hands on her hips as Chavo jumped up and down celebrating and the referee raised his arm in the air and Chavo continued celebrating and then John landed the Attitude Adjuster on Chavo and Big Show licked his lips eager to go after John and he got into the ring and John landed some rights & lefts and Big Show shoved John to the corner and charged into both feet and John climbed the top turnbuckle and leaped into a big right hand.
Then the Big Show stalked John for a submission hold and the Big Show put John's lifeless body in the Camel Clutch and Nicole was begging the Big Show to stop as he released the hold and the Big Show got up and stood over John's body as he left the ring and Nicole got into the ring and checked on John as RAW went to a commercial break.
Later, Santino Marella was in the locker room with ice on his neck and wrapped in a towel.
Earlier in an intergender match, Santino Marella faced off against Vickie Guerrero and though Vickie was initially reluctant to face Santino, she was convinced by Matt Hardy and William Regal that their plan would pay off in spades. After Vickie came to the ring with two buckets of slop (a reference to her and 'Santina's' impending Hog Pen Match), Santino retrieved one and began to threaten Vickie with it. Then William Regal and Matt Hardy rushed to Vickie's aid, storming the ring with ill intention, but as they crept up behind Santino, Santino whirled around dousing William in the slop. Enraged, William and Matt attacked Santino giving Vickie an opportunity to cover him with the contents of the second slop bucket.
Then "Eddie's Angels" walked inside and stood around Santino.
"What?" Santino said.
"Are you just gonna sit there and let Vickie Guerrero punk you like that?" Amanda said.
"If I were you," Rochelle said, "I'd do something about it but I'm sure your 'twin sister' will."
"But you……you're going to be lumberjacks," Santino said. "I'm sure my sister will handle the job……just fine."
"And don't worry about Regal and Matt Hardy," Brittany said, "they're already in enough trouble as it is and they're banned from the match."
"Thank you, thank you very much."
"No problem," Buffy said.
Then the Angels left the locker room
Several minutes later, Randy Orton was slowly walking around the parking lot looking for Ric Flair and there was some noise in the background as Randy paced around he hopped over a guardrail near a row of cars and Randy continued to hear some noise.
"Flair!" Randy shouted.
Then Ric Flair then snuck up behind Randy and pushed him into a metal garage door and stomped on Randy as he ripped open his t-shirt and landed a couple of chops and a right hand and Randy kicked Ric and stumbled near a car as Ric came after him and Randy kicked him again as Ric landed another chop to the chest and ran Randy into the guardrail. Then Ric stomped on Randy and stepped on his head and Randy got a knee to the midsection and clubbed Ric in the head and ran into some boxes and Randy grabbed Ric and Ric punched him in the midsection and then Ric then put Randy on a portable trunk with wheels and wheeled him into a wall. Ric got another chop to the chest and hit his head on the table and Randy was stumbling into the curtains as Ric followed him.
Ric and Randy were in the equipment area and the beating continued as Randy put Flair in a headlock before taking him to the floor area near the stage and Randy got a couple of right hands to the head and kicks to the midsection and Randy stomped on Ric's forehead before landing a round of punches. Then Randy flung Ric onto the stage and stood over Ric's prone body before stomping him all over and he was punching away at Ric and Randy finally took off ripped shirt. Then Randy went to throw Flair off the stage but Ric got a back elbow and landed a mule kick to the groin and Ric started kicking and stomping on Randy and Flair chopped him in the chest and Randy rolled down the entrance ramp before Ric stomping on his hands.
Then Ric tried to rearrange his face and landed some right hands and landed a chop before he ran Randy into the cage wall and Ric again landed a chop to the chest and got a right hand and hit his head on the ring steps and Ric grabbed Randy by his face and nearly chopped him over the guardrail into the front row as Randy bled from the chest from all of the chops. Ric got another right hand and darted Randy into the cage wall and Flair cleared the announce desk before chopping Randy onto the table and Ric landed more right hand blows to the forehead, then he climbed on the desk. Ric measured Randy and stomped him right between the legs and stomped on his leg before slapping on the figure four on the announce desk.
Suddenly, Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes jumped Ric and assaulted him from behind and they rammed Ric into the cage wall before whipping him into the guardrail and took Ric inside the cage and Ted & Cody beat up Ric inside the cage before they executed a double-team suplex as Randy shouted from ringside to keep pounding on Ric and Randy entered the cage and told Ted and Cody to leave the cage and lock it up. Ted and Cody left the ring and Cody struggled to lock the door.
Then Dave and Rochelle suddenly stormed ringside and chased off Ted & Cody and Rochelle tried to get the cage door open and neither could Dave and Dave tried ripping the lock off but to no avail. Randy was stalking Ric as Dave started climbing the cage and Randy nailed the RKO as Dave got off and Dave was getting enraged and frustrated as he and Rochelle called out to Ric and Randy stared down at Dave. Dave vowed to break Randy in half and Randy lightly kicked Ric to check for life as Dave screamed out to Randy and Randy slowly backed away from Ric and Dave & Rochelle saw what was coming as they called out to Ric again and Randy bounced and bounced around before landing the vicious punt on Ric.
Rochelle covered her mouth as Dave could only grip the cage wall from the outside as Randy stared back at him and Dave shouted "I'm gonna tear you apart!" as RAW came to a close.
Several minutes later, the entire RAW roster were watching EMTs rolling Ric Flair on a stretcher with Dave and Rochelle following him and the two looked on as the EMTs wheeled Ric to an ambulance and drove away.
"I should've done something," Dave said. "I should've done something, but Ric said 'I need you not be my hero, okay? Not my running mate, I need you to be my friend, I need you to believe that Ric Flair can go out and do this like he used to."
"Dave, it's not your fault," Rochelle said. "There was something Ric said he would do: wear Orton out so you can finish the job. You are gonna be the one to finish Orton and I will be there."
Then Rochelle walked away and she walked down the hallway until she reached the Angels' locker room.
Rochelle went into her bag and pulled out a nightstick and looked at it with rage wanting to beat up Randy herself and didn't notice that Eddie Guerrero was standing behind her.
"You know what you and Dave gotta do," Eddie said.
"Oh, yeah, we're both gonna beat the shit out of Orton together," Rochelle said.
