Monday night again. But tonight is the first Raw of the new year. Time to start things off on a good note. We're all in our rooms getting ready for the show. Aly's in the bathroom finishing up with everything while Mike waits for her. She puts her jewelry on and steps out of the bathroom to go get her shoes.
"Well look at you." Mike says, staring at her.
"What?"
She sits on the bed and put her shoes on.
"Just admiring the beauty that is you."
She blushes.
"And as I always say, you're cute when you blush." He says, leaning down and kissing her cheek.
Her cheeks then get redder.
"Okay, cut it out Casanova."
He smiles, and leans back up so he's back so standing upright. She fixes the remaining buckle of her shoes and stands up. He grabs both his and her jacket, handing hers to her before putting his own on. She slides her on and they step out into the hallway after grabbing their bags. I in the meantime, am finishing up myself. I walk out, putting my shoes on as I walk over to my bag to put my things in it. Alex whistles at me jokingly.
"Looking hot." He says.
"Only you." I laugh.
"You know you love me."
"You're right about that." I smile, grabbing my jacket.
Alex puts his on and kisses me briefly.
"As I love you." He adds.
"And you always will." I smile.
He nods firmly as I grab my bag.
"Well at least Mike gets his match over with early tonight." I say, as we walk to the door.
"Yeah, instead of having to wait the whole night." Alex agrees.
"It'll be such a relief when it's done and over with." I add, as we walk out.
"What is?" Aly asks.
"Mike's match."
"Oh yeah." She agrees.
"But it's too bad John's not going to be at the show tonight because of his hip injury."
"Yeah, hopefully he'll recover quick."
"Flipping Wade, why can't he leave John alone?" I say, as we head into the elevator.
"I don't know." Aly shrugs.
When we reach the arena, Mike goes right to the locker room to change while the three of us
head into the room and wait for the show to start. Aly sits on the other couch, leaning against the corner and twisting her ring around her finger.
"It's too bad Mike has his match first, because otherwise we could walk around and find all our stalkers and rub it in their faces we're engaged."
"Yeah." Aly laughs.
After a while, Mike comes back dressed in his gold attire.
"You really like gold don't you?" Aly teases.
"Maybe." He chuckles.
"I like that kind of 'gold' better though." He add, pointing at her ring.
"Then you should have attire with that kind of gold color."
"Haha very funny." Mike says amusedly.
He sits down next to her and we watch as the show comes on. Starting with what happened with John, Nexus and CM Punk last Monday.
"Ugh, ass."
"A hypocrite is more like it."
"I know! That made me soooo mad. After I got ambushed by them he was all 'they went too far, putting their hands on a diva' and what not. And yet here he is, joining them and being their leader!"
The camera comes on, revealing Micheal Cole.
"Ladies and gentlemen in all likelyhood, John Cena will not be a part of our broadcast this
evening due to the injuries sustained last week on Monday Night Raw. And further exasperated in a one on one match with Wade Barrett in Pennsylvania. What physical toll have these incidents had on John Cena? Ladies and gentlemen we hope to find out later on tonight. Also we know that CM Punk is a part of Nexus. But who is the leader of the most dominant group in WWE history? We hope to have all these questions answered on Monday Night Raw. Plus it is extremely rare that the WWE Championship is defended on Monday Night Raw. But it will happen tonight in an inaugural match of 2011. It is falls count anywhere in the building. The WWE Champion The Miz vs the number one contender John Morrison for the WWE title. It is live, and it is next on Monday Night Raw." Cole says and the screen goes to the intro.
"Here we go." Aly mumbles.
"Guess we should be getting out there by the curtain now huh?"
"Yeah." Mike says.
We all get up and head that way. On our way to the curtain, we happen to bump into Morrison. Immediately aly drops back behind Mike a little, glaring at Morrison.
"Get ready to lose out there tonight." He says to Mike
"In your dreams." Aly snorts, then he turns to look at her.
"And you...when I do take the title away from Miz, you're the next thing...well person I'm coming after."
"I don't think so." She smirks.
"Really? And what's going to stop me?"
She unlaces her left hand from Mike's right and holds it up, wiggling her fingers so her ring catches the light.
"Yeah so? It's a ring."
"Oh but what finger is it on hmmm?"
"Wait...don't tell me..."
She just laughs as the realization dawns on him.
"This goof proposed to you and you said yes?"
"He may be a goof, but he's mine and I wouldn't be wearing this ring if I said no." She states and laces her fingers with Mike's again.
"Now if you don't mind we have to go out there, so Mike can beat your sorry ass and prove you wrong again, like he's always done."
Mike's music hits and we all walk past Morrison and out onto the ramp. We walk down the ramp with them and as they get into the ring, we walk around and head over to the commentator's table where Cole and Josh are. They both stand up and greet us as we sit down and put the headsets on. After we sit, Cole does the usual and introduces himself, Josh and then us to the people sitting at home watching. We look at each other amusedly.
"It's great to be here Cole, thank you." Aly says after he thanks us for being there ringside with them and everything.
"Its been a while since we've done this so its a fun experience." I add.
"We're always happy to have you here doing commentary with us. But if I may recall something big happened over this past weekend and it's involving you two." Cole comments.
"Yes it did." Aly says and we both giggle.
"Everyone watching at home, if you haven't already heard...these two lovely WWE divas are now engaged. I am so happy for you two."
"Thanks." I laugh.
"I am just extremely happy about this. This is truely awesome."
We both laugh when he says 'awesome'.
"Now you have to tell me all the details. How'd they do it?"
"We were in Times Square for New Years and they waited until right after the ball dropped to ask us." She replies.
"What a great way to start off the new year." He comments.
We both agree with a nod. We then go to watching the match. After taking control instantly Morrison tries for the first pin of the night.
"Really? He's going to try to pin him this early? Really?"
"I guess he's trying to catch Miz offguard but it isn't going to work."
Then after getting Miz at the top of the ramp on the stage, he hits him against the thing that says 'Raw' on it and then goes for the pin again.
"Not going to work." Aly says.
"He's going to have to try harder than that." I add.
Then Alex goes to help, and Morrison is occupied with him. But he's not even giving him a chance to fight back. He then brings him over to the giant WWE logo sign thing and just rams his head down onto the steel part, I cringe hearing the impact.
"Oh ouch." Aly winces.
Once he had both Miz and Alex down in front of the WWE logo sign, he runs around to the back of it and starts climbing up to the top.
"Oh jeez."
"Oh this can't be good."
"Come on move...move..."
Both of us cringe heavily when Morrison jumps off and collides with Miz and Alex.
"I so want to run up there and smack him, no wait knock him out."
Aly nods in agreement, watching Mike with concern. Morrison goes for another pin, but Mike kicks out at 2.
"Oh thank god." Aly sighs in relief.
"Come on Miz." I mumble while also keeping an eye on Alex.
But Morrison gets up and drags him to the ring, throwing him in. But that's where Mike get some momentum and knocks Morrison down, going for the pin.
"There you go!" Aly yells.
"Come on!" Aly yells again as Morrison kicks out.
Aly scowls and slumps back into her seat. Mike rams John into the corner, and then picks him up and placing him on the ringpost. He punches him for good measure and steps up onto the ropes himself and wraps his arm round John's neck. He goes to lift him up, but John stops him and keeps punching him, knocking him down to the apron. John stands on the top rope and missle dropkicks Mike, going for the pin.
"No...come on..."
"Come on kick out..." Aly hisses and we're clutching each other's hand under the table.
Mike kicks out at 2 and a half, John getting a little bit frustrated. He goes right after Mike as soon as he gets up. He wails on him in the corner and then throws him into the opposite one. He lifts him up and drops him face first, then does some funky move to try to pin him again.
"Pshhh, not going to work."
"Morrison can keep trying but Miz will just keep kicking out." Aly shakes her head.
Mike kicks out at 2 again and John is even more frustrated. He goes to do something to Mike, but he counters and goes to hit him, but John counters too. He jumps onto the ropes and does a spin kick to the jaw, and we saw on the little tv screens at the table the dazed look on Mike's face after that spin kick.
"Ohh.." Aly winces.
As soon as Mike sits up, John goes against the ropes and knees Mike in the jaw like he did to Alex last week.
"Are you kidding me?"
He goes for the pin, but Alex comes quickly and pulls Morrison out of the ring.
"Ha! That's right!" I yell.
"Thank you Alex." Aly sighs.
"There's no way you're winning! There's no way!" He yells at Morrison.
But Morrison of course goes after him and continues the attack on him, gving Mike the chance to recover. He sits him ontop of the barrier and continues to go after him. He backs up, then runs at him and knees him in the face, making him fall to the floor.
"Alright, that's it..." I say getting up, taking the headset off.
Aly jumps up too, tossing her headset on the table. We start to storm over and she nudges me, motioning to the chairs sitting nearby. I smirk and we grab each chair and walk over, sneaking up behind Morrison as he's preoccupied with yelling at Alex. When Morrison stands back up and turns around I hit him in the gut with the chair and Aly hits him across the back. We drop the chairs and then pick Morrison up and throw him back into the ring. We turn around and see the trainers around Alex to see if he's alright.
"Okay, you stay here for the match. I'm sure the trainers are going to take Alex backstage, and I'm going to go with them." I say to Aly.
"Alright, we'll be back there as soon as this is over." She nods, turning to watch Miz and Morrison.
"Be careful." She adds.
"I will." I say, walking over to the trainers who have now helped Alex up.
Me, the trainers, and Alex disappear backstage and Aly carefully walks near the ring. Mike took control of the match during the commercial break. When the match came back on, he was placing a steel fence thing against the corner of the stage...setting it up to land Morrison on. Aly watches warily, hoping that Mike doesn't end up hitting it himself. Mike goes for the supplex, but Morrison stops it. He counters Mike's move and spins around, getting him in a position to make him land on it. But Mike fought out of it and went for a clothesline, and missed. When John ran at him, Mike lifted him up and flipped him over making him land on the steel fence.
"Yes." Aly cheers quietly.
He goes for the pin, but John kicks out and Mike has a look of disbelief on his face. He picks him up and brings him over to the stage and lifts him up, so he's laying on it. He then lifts him up and slams him onto the edge of the stage and he cried out in pain.
"Serves you right." Aly mutters.
Mike backs up, then runs and knees him in the face, making him now roll away. He jumps up onto the stage and goes for the pin, but when John kicks out he gets really mad.
"Ahhhh! Come on!" He yells in frustration.
"Oh my god how long is this going to go on..." Aly sighs in frustration.
He picks him up by the hair and then just throws him onto the steel ramp and he cries out in pain again. Again he goes for the pin but John kicks out.
"Come on!" He yells again, breathing heavy and getting more frustrated.
He picks him up and drags him over to the barrier and hits him against it. He takes an object or whatever it was and hits John with it, going for the pin again. But of course John kicks out.
"Come on." He says to the ref.
Aly growls and angrily twists her ring in frustration while pacing. He takes John and throws him into the ring, crawling in himself. He starts kicking John in the face and yelling things like 'You're not better than me' and etc. Mike grabs him and yells at him more, but John pushes his arms away and retaliates with a punch to the head. Punches and kicks were thrown, and they were back and forth. John knocks him down like 3 times in a row and goes for the pin. But of course Mike kicks out.
"Come on babe." Aly whispers to herself.
John throws him into the corner and does a side russian leg sweep. Then he heads for the turnbuckle to go for Starship Pain. He sets up for it and goes to do it but Mike rolls out of the way. Mike grabs him and does one his signature moves and goes for the pin. Again, John kicks out.
"What do I have to do? What do I have to do?" Mike asks himself in disbelief.
"Ugh! This is nuts!"
He gets up and stands behind Morrison as he starts to get up. He stares him down and when he's standing up completely, Mike goes for the Skull Crushing Finale. But John gets out of it and counters. Mike then runs towards John who's now in the corner, but he moves and Mike lands shoulder first into the steel ring post. Aly cringes. John pulls him away, and he's now laying on the mat. He goes up again for Starship Pain and successfully executes it. The crowd goes crazy and John goes for the pin. But at the last second Mike kicks out.
"Yes!" Aly screams.
"Thank god."
John holds Mike's legs and then stomps on his chest. John then goes again for the knee to the chin, but Mike ducks and rolls up John going for the pin and as usual John kicks out. Mike elbows John as he comes near him, but he retailiates and kicks backwards, hitting Mike in the face and making him roll out of the ring. John rolls out of the ring and picks Mike up and puts him onto the table that's set up outside the ring. He climbs up onto the side of the ring so that he'll send Mike through the table when he lands on him.
"No no no no...move babe, move!"
John jumps up and goes for the Starship Pain again. Mike ends up rolling out of the way just in time, and John went right through the table.
"Yes!"
Mike then inches over to cover John for the pin to win. Once he covers him, the ref counts, but John kicks out.
"How the hell can he kick out from that?"
John slowly inches away, and Mike walks over to him. He picks him up and gets him in the position for the Skull Crushing Finale. He executes the finisher and he goes for the pin. The ref counts 1 2 3 and he wins, retaining the title.
"Yes!" Aly exclaims, bolting over.
She rushes over to him and hugs him all happy like.
"You did it!" She squeals, clinging and kissing his cheek.
"Like I said, he'll never be better than me."
"Never." Aly agrees.
They walk up the ramp and they stop at the stage. He stares down at Morrison and Morrison stares back.
"You leave my fiancee alone." He says to John.
Aly and Mike head backstage as a commercial break happens, Alex and I meet them about halfway.
"Hey DC, feeling alright?" Aly asks.
"A little sore, but I'll live."
"Good."
We were then told that Mike had to do a little interview after the commercial break due to him retaining the title. So we walk over to where most of the interviews happen and wait there for the commercial break to end. Once it does, the interviewer guys starts talking.
"Alright guys, my guest at this time...WW Champion The Miz. Now Miz you just successfully defended the WWE title against John Morrison, in what happened to be the very first Monday Night Raw matchup here in 2011. And you just..."
"Do you know what that proves? Do you know what that proved? That I am still WWE Champion. Do you get that? Does everyone get that? The Miz is still WWE Champion!"
Aly bites her lip, trying really hard not to giggle at seeing Mike get angry.
"And what else? What's the word I'm looking for? That I'm awesome. And my championship reign will go down with me as the best technical wrestler, the most rugged brawler. The most popular, the most charismatic, the most must see WWE Champion in this history of this company! Because I'm the Miz...and I'm..." He trails off looking at Alex and motioning him on.
"Awwwesoooommmme!" Alex yells.
We look at each other while trying to hide our amusement. We walk away after that and start walking towards the room, so that we could go get our stuff to change for our match with Natalya against Melina, Alicia and Maryse.
"Saying awesome like he does now?" I ask Alex, trying not to laugh as much and Alex smirks.
"Well we got to get ready for our match next." Aly points out.
"Right." I agree and we head that way.
Once we get there, we walk in and start getting ready. That's when the door opens and in walks Maryse. Aly just rolls her eyes but doesn't say anything as she laces up her boots.
"Just so you know, I do plan on beating you out there. And once Mike sees how pathetic you are, he's going to be coming back to me." She just randomly says.
"Oh really Frenchie?" Aly scoffs, and pulls on her elbow pads.
"Really."
She stands up.
"I'm pathetic huh? You think he's going to go back to you huh?" She asks.
"Did I stutter? Or are you too dumb to get what I just said?" She retorts.
"Just clarifying your stupidity." She says nonchalantly.
"Because um...if I'm so pathetic that he'll leave me for you..then why do I have this?" She continues, showing Maryse her left hand and she stares at it for a while.
"So he asked you to marry him eh? He just did that because he feels sorry for you."
"Really? Then why would he do it in the middle of Times Square where we could be caught on tv?"
For once she doesn't have a comeback, and I snicker.
"Oh, nothing to say to that huh?" Aly taunts, smirking.
She just smiles and then slaps her across the face.
"Oh that's it." Aly growls and tackles her, wailing on her.
During that, she manages to pull out one hair extension for now.
"Oh would you look at that...I knew your hair wasn't real." She laughs.
She gets pissed off and starts to retaliate with slaps and punches. But Aly retaliates by pulling even more extensions out, but getting scratched by her in the meantime as well. They roll around, fighting but Aly gets the upperhand and manages to beat her pretty good. She motions for me to open the door. I open it and she kicks her right out and she lands outside, by the feet of Alex and Mike. Aly throws a fistful of extensions at her.
"Try and mess with me again damn it." She snaps, breathing heavily.
"Just you wait 'till the match." She says, before talking in french as she walks away.
"Ooooh she pisses me off." Aly growls, gingerly touching her face where Maryse clawed her.
"Are you okay?" Mike asks, walking over to her.
"Other than her scratching me, I'm fine. Pissed off...but fine."
"What'd she even do?" Alex asks.
"She randomly started saying that I was pathetic and that Mike was going to come back to her and all this stupid stuff. I said some things in return and showed her my ring, we went back and forth again and then she slapped me. I tackled her and...yeah."
"She really must be desperate...looks like the relationship with rich boy isn't what she thought it would be." I comment.
"Apparently not." Alex says.
"But it is that time to start heading out. Ha, you get to beat up on her even more when we go out there." I say to her.
"Can't wait." Aly grumbles while still touching her cheek.
"But I think it's wise to give the rings to you guys because I don't think we want to risk losing them or ruining them." I say to Mike and Alex.
"Good idea." They agree.
We both slide off our rings and give them to the guys. Then Natalya appears in the doorway.
"You girls ready?"
"Yeah." I say.
"Alright, we'll see you two after the match." Aly says to Mike and Alex.
"Be careful." Mike says after they kiss us.
"Oh I can handle Frenchie, believe me but I will be careful." Aly replies.
Then we leave with Natalya for the ramp. Once Melina, Alicia and Maryse walk out and down the ramp, then we do and get into the ring. We all decide that since Maryse is starting out, that Aly will go against her. Aly snickers since Maryse had to go get her hair fixed before coming out and the result is her hair being much shorter than before. Once the bell rings, she immediately attacks her. That then results in them both rolling around on the mat as Maryse rolls outside the ropes and she's pulling at her hair again. She holds her nose and checks it as Aly's sitting there. But then she rolls out and chases her around the ring and then back into the ring. After a while, Maryse gets the upperhand just for a brief moment when she throws Aly out of the ring. Maryse climbs out and grabs her, throwing her back in the ring. But Aly retaliates after Maryse picks her back up and drops her face first to the apron. She goes for the pin, but Alicia butts in and stops the pin, then backing out of the ring.
She crawls over to me and Natalya and Maryse crawls over to Alicia and Melina. Aly tags in Natalya, and Maryse tags in Alicia. Natalya just dominates her turn in the match from the beginning. Natalya goes for the sharpshooter and Melina comes in and she stops immediately as Natalya sees her. She crawls out and when Natalya is over by the ropes, Melina holds her foot and Alicia gets one shot at her. Natalya gains control back and gets a hold of Alicia and supplexes her. Melina is on the side of the ring and she's fighting with Natalya until she drops her onto the top rope. Alicia tags in Melina and she storms right over to Natalya. But Natalys spins and drops Melina where she stands. Natalya quickly rolls over to me and she tags me in. I rush in and get Melina when she's dazed and deliver a neckbreaker, going for the pin. The ref counts to 3 and we win the match.
"Yeahhh!" Aly grins, Natalya and her climbing in to celebrate with me.
After the other three leave, we all climb out of the ring and head back up the ramp and backstage ourselves.
"Man that felt good." Aly says as the three of us walk back to change out of our gear.
"Indeed it did. They never had a chance haha."
"Especially Maryse. I wonder what happened to her hair?" Natalya comments.
"Ohhh she just got on my bad side..." Aly snickers.
"You did that?" She asks incredulously.
"Yup. We exchanged some words and she slapped me so I kicked her ass." Aly says nonchalantly.
"Ripped those extensions right out of her hair. Funniest thing ever." I comment.
"I bet it was." Natalya laughs.
"But ooh you should have seen her face when she found out where Mike proposed. Priceless!"
"She had no comeback. She went all quiet."
Natalya laughs harder. After we changed we said bye to Natalya and walked back to the room. We get into the room and Mike is laughing.
"Her hair looked ridiculous!" He says to Alex, speaking of Maryse.
"You have me to thank for that." Aly says as we walk in.
"I know." Mike laughs.
"I love youuuuuuu."
"I love you too." She laughs.
"Can I have my ring back now?"
"Yes you can." He says getting up and handing it back to her.
Aly slides it back on, smiling softly. Alex hands me my ring as well.
"Well I'm pretty thirsty, I'm going to go get something from catering." Aly says.
"I'll go too." I agree.
"We'll be back." Aly says, as we head out the door.
"Hey! Forgetting something again?" Alex calls after us.
We stop in our tracks and shake our heads amusedly before stepping back into the room.
"Really?" Aly asks amusedly and they just nod.
"You two are impossible." We laugh.
"But you love us."
"That is true." We agree and kiss them.
"Happy now?" We ask, after pulling away.
"Yup." They nod.
"For now." Mike adds.
"We won't be long don't worry." Aly giggles.
He chuckles and we walk out of the room again. As we're walking, we spot Nexus.
"Oh joy." I roll my eyes.
"Oh god." Aly sighs.
They just had to approach us.
"Carly...Sadie." Wade addresses.
"Monkey Boy." We address back.
"Can we help you?" Aly says, folding her arms over her chest.
"I was just greeting Carly here because I haven't seen her in weeks."
"Yeah how well I know. How were the 23 steel chairs?" I smirk.
"Bet that felt good." Aly adds, snickering.
"And how do you feel since CM Punk is the new leader of Nexus? Bet that's not fitting with you at all."
The rest of Nexus is watching quietly as Wade starts to get mad.
"Because if I recall from last week a certain David Otunga told John that Nexus is under new management."
"I'll have you know that that is wrong. I am still the rightful leader of Nexus." Wade growls.
"Oooh touchy are we?" Aly says amusedly.
"But anyway, since you're here...we have news for you and Gabriel."
"We just wanted to let you know that its probably in your best interest to leave us alone because...well..." Aly continues and then we exchange a look before doing John's 'You can't see me' motion with our left hands.
"Uh Wade, are you seeing what finger those rings are on?" Heath mutters from behind him.
"Holy crap." Otunga says.
"Wade what do we do now? They're engaged." Gabriel mutters to him.
"We'll figure something out." Wade growls.
"Those are very nice. We'll be seeing you around. Let's go." Wade says, motioning for Nexus to follow him.
"Asses." Aly mutters, not caring if they hear her.
"Did you see their reactions? They were shocked."
"Yeah." She laughs a little as we finish our walk to catering.
"Carly." I hear from behind me.
"Oh no..." I say knowing who it is.
"What are you doing here Cody? Don't you belong on Smackdown?" I ask, turning around.
"In your little room with your girly beauty tips?" Aly adds, snickering.
"No. I do that on Smackdown." He retorts.
We both laugh because he just admitted he did girly beauty tips.
"MANLY grooming tips that is." He adds.
"Too late, you admitted they were girly." Aly cracks up.
"Why don't you go back to Smackdown. You don't own a title so you can't come to Raw whenever you feel like it." I comment.
"Del Rio doesn't either." Cody points out.
"Yeah but he actually has a match, you didn't."
"Are you stalking me?" I ask, beginning to be creeped out.
"Where'd you follow me from?" I add.
"I'm not going to say." He says.
"Well either way, you really should cut it out because there's no way in hell she's going to be with you, not with this." Aly tells him and she lifts up my left hand to show him my ring.
"Where'd that come from?"
"Who do you think it came from you idiot." She rolls her eyes.
"I'm engaged to Alex. So word of advice if you don't want to get that pretty little face of yours ruined by him...LEAVE ME ALONE."
He steps back and lets out a growl before storming off.
"And stay away!" I yell after him.
"Yeesh, it's Night of Stalkers again." Aly comments.
"He just doesn't get a clue about leaving you alone does he?" I hear another voice say from behind me and I sigh.
"Oh my god, can't they all just go away?" I mutter.
"You need to control your damn girlfriend Richie Rich." Aly spins around.
"You did that to her...should've known."
"She says things about Mike again and I'll do more than rip her extensions out." Aly threatens.
"Yeah well, whatever. I'm here to talk to Carly not you."
"Well why don't you talk to the hand because I don't want to." I say, purposely sticking my left hand out and in his face so he can clearly see the ring.
He stares at it with wide eyes.
"You know what this means don't you?"
"When did that happen?" He asks.
"Like it's any of your business...but I'll just tell you for the hell of it...New Years." I answer his question about the ring.
He goes to say something bu Aly interrupts and starts to push him back down the hall.
"Okay we're done talking to you. Shut up. I don't care what you want to say. Leave us the hell
alone before I kick your ass." Aly says in one smooth sentence as she pushes him.
"God, it's like they're all spying on us right now." I say, as he walks away.
"I know, yeesh."
I look ever her shoulder and shake my head.
"Yep, they're definately spying on us. You have a visitor." I say, pointing behind her and she
scowls.
"Now what do you want?" She asks, turning around to face Drew.
"To speak with my lovely lady." He says, smirking at her.
"YOUR lovely lady? Excuse you? I don't think so." She scoffs.
"Plus you don't have the right to speak with me."
"Yes I do beacuse I will be making you my wife." Drew says smugly.
"Your wife? Hah, in your dreams. And my name may change before the end of 2011 but it wont be McIntyre...it will be Mizanin." She smirks, holding up her left hand.
"You're kidding."
"Nope."
"And you be sure to make it awfully clear to Cody even though he already knows...that my name is going to be changing to Riley." I say, walking up beside her.
"So keep dreaming because you'll never win." She states.
"I think he's already lost. Since well the first day he bothered you." I say to her, snickering.
"True." She laughs.
"Nobody had a chance after I met Mike that first time."
"Now go away." I say, pushing him down the hall.
"Hopefully we can get to catering and back to the room without any other interruptions." Aly sighs.
"Well those were all the stalkers I think we're good."
"Yeah but that doesn't mean other people won't stop us and gush over the engagements." She points out.
"Well then, let's hurry to catering and then hurry back to the room."
She nods in agreement. We hurry to catering, and when we got what we needed, we hurried back to the room. But when we were heading back we saw CM Punk walking to the curtain.
"Oh great, we're going to have to hear him blab on about god knows what."
"That's just great." Aly scowls.
"You know, never thought I'd say this but I hope Wade beats his ass."
"I hope John comes back and beats the crap out of both of them"
"Even better." I say as we walk back into the room.
"So what'd we miss?" I ask.
"Nothing really. Just Santino and Kozlov beating the Usos."
"Ah, boring." She shrugs and sits down on Mike's lap, leaning into him.
"So any stalker run ins?" Mike asks.
"Every single one of them."
"But they all backed off as soon as they saw the rings."
"None of them laid hands on you did they?" Alex asks us.
"Nope, not at all."
"Good. Otherwise I'd have to go kick some ass."
"You both would."
Alex agrees.
The commercial break ends and Punk's music plays and he walks out all confident like and
gets into the ring, grabbing a mic. As soon as his music faded he waited as people just booed.
"Thank you...thank you. I want to start off by saying how much I love being in Pheonix. You know I've already had a very busy day. I spent the better part of it searching the backstage area for John Cena. I looked in the locker rooms, I even looked in the parking lot. And the funny thing of it is...I can't see John Cena." He says, imitating John's 'You can't see me' motion.
"Ass!" I yell at the tv.
Aly just glares at it and grumbles under her breath.
"I can't see John Cena because John Cena is not here tonight. John Cena is not here
tonight, because of me. Check it out, last week before we went off the air I promised the world a huge surprise...and I delivered. I delivered in spades, because that's what I do! I am a man of my word. I am also a 3-time World Heavyweight Champion."
"And that proves what? Oh, nothing." I mutter.
"Exactly. How long has it been? Obviously a while since I don't remember." Aly adds.
"Which makes me a leader of men. Which I'd imagine is exactly like Nexus came to me and begged me to be their new leader. So last week...I led them." He motions to the screen and the footage from last week plays.
"Hustle, loyalty and respect! Hustle, loyalty and respect, three words that I live my life by." He says and the crowd chants 'Cena'.
"Cena Cena Cena...hustle, loyalty and respect to John Cena is just a phony catchphrase."
"Maybe to you." I say.
"Hustle, loyalty and respect is what I expect out of myself. It is what I expect from the members of Nexus. And John Cena I know you're at home, I know you're listening. What I expect from you is to stay at home. This is a fight that John Cena cannot win. I'm taking over Nexus, and I'm taking over Monday Night Raw." Punk finishes and the Nexus theme song plays, out walks Wade.
"Aw here we go."
Aly rolls her eyes and snuggles closer to Mike, playing with her ring while hummming quietly.
"Punk. Allow me to correct you on two things. Number one, the reason John Cena isn't here tonight has nothing to do with you. John Cena isn't here because I destroyed him in our match this past week in Pennsylvania."
"Still not cool." I mutter.
We both flip off the tv, which causes Mike and Alex to chuckle.
"Now number two. You're not the leader of The Nexus...I am."
"Wade, Wade Wade..I can understand you being confused. I mean John Cena bounced what...23 chairs off your head at TLC? Wake up Wade, Nexus NEEDS new management."
"No what they need to do is go away."
"And make sure to leave us the HELL ALONE."
"Punk...I see you as a hypocritical, manipulative, waste of skin. Now under my leadership, the Nexus has dominated Raw, it's changed the face of this show. You're not a leader, you're a liar. You lie about your lifestyle, you lie about being straight edge and you lie to all these John Cena flag waving morons."
"They aren't morons, you're just an idiotic asshole.
"I'm a liar? I'm a liar? You're going to stand here and tell me that I'm the one who's lieing. Let's find out, in front of the whole world who's the liar and who's telling the truth. But why don't we ask the members of Nexus Wade?"
"Yeah, that's probably the best idea you've had in a long time. Nexus, get down here."
Aly sighs, deciding to hide her face in Mike's neck.
The music plays again and the rest of them walk out, getting into the ring.
"Now look Punk...Wade, with all due respect you both make good points." Otunga says, and
the GM ding rings out.
"Oh boy."
"I'm going to fall asleep, this is retarded."
"Can I have your attention please? I've just receieved an email from the anonymous Raw
general manager. And I quote. Before things get out of hand, there will be three participants in a number one contender's steel cage match tonight. The winner of that match will face The Miz for the WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble."
"Watch one of them be Randy." Aly mumbles.
"Wouldn't doubt it." I comment.
"The three participants will be Wade Barrett or CM Punk, vs Sheamus vs Randy Orton!"
"So called it."
"Well as leader of Nexus I will be the man taking the final spot in the steel cage match."
"Okay Wade. Go ahead, the spot's yours. You know I defended you when John Cena brutalized you, I'm not about to brutalize you myself. Me...I'm a talker, I want to talk things out, so I don't want to fight you. And if I got to fight you to get the number one contender spot, I...you know what frankly take it. I tell you what...if you win the cage match congratulations. Not only are you the number one contender, but you will prove to me that you are the rightful leader of Nexus. I'll work for you Wade. However, let's say you lose...okay? You lose, and you're out. You're out of Nexus, which leaves me to lead Nexus."
"Oooh." I say, looking semi-interested.
"So Wade, what do you say? Do we have a uh...a gentlemen's agreement?" Punk says holding out his hand and Wade shakes it.
"It's a deal."
The music plays and the camera pans out showing the cage, then going to a commercial. Aly yawns a little.
"I'm predicting Randy to win."
"Well it's kind of a dead giveaway because they would want the rivalry to keep going."
"It's pretty pointless to even watch this match because it's so obvious." Aly nods.
After coming back from the commercial, and they replay the footage from Mike's match. Then of course showing in slow motion what Morrison did to Alex, making him unable to help in the match later. Then they show what happened with the table, and finally showing Mike pinning him to retain the title after the Skull Crushing Finale.
"Ass."
"You know I'm just glad you're okay. It looked more serious than it actually was." I say to Alex.
"I know." He says kissing my cheek.
"I'm surprised they didn't show what we did to Morrison." Aly says to me.
"Well there's only so much they can replay before getting onto other things."
"True."
After the replay, Del Rio's music plays and he comes out in the usual expensive car and his ring announcer introduces him in spanish.
"English amigo..english." I shake my head.
"Retarded muffin top and his just as retarded sidekick." Aly rolls her eyes.
"My name...my name is Alberto Del Rio! But you...you already know that. With my rich
Mexican heritage. My destiny is to be the World Heavyweight Champion." He says getting into the ring.
"My destiny is to destroy every single person in Smackdown. And from here...from Raw! The name Alberto Del Rio will be emblazoned in the heart and the mind of the WWE Universe. My destiny is to win the Royal Rumble, and main event Wrestlemania."
"Pffft, never going to happen."
"Nope because the main event for Wrestlemania is sitting right here." Aly says, poking Mike.
"That is if Creative doesn't mess anything up and make me lose the title before then." He comments.
"They better not and if they do you better get it back."
"You people...you people...you got no destiny."
Then Truth's music plays and he comes out singing to his song, before getting into the ring to face Del Rio.
"I'll tell you what's up. Your only destiny is to go back where you came from."
"Let's hope so." I agree.
"Truth is...I'm just the man to send you there. Now let's go."
The match was boring, especially since Del Rio won. Another commercial comes on and when we come back the ninnies are in the locker room.
"Look guys...I'm sure you'll all agree that I'm the true leader of the Nexus. I mean...I've made stars out of David Otunga, Heath Slater, and Justin Gabriel."
"And Wade, we've always had your back man." Gabriel comments.
"And you did help up win the tag team titles." Slater adds.
"Pffftt which you lost." Aly mumbles, having almost fallen asleep against Mike until they came on.
"Yeah I did. I made you two champions. And I can make each and every one of you champions. Even the guys I drafted recently."
"Wade, come on man. Can't you and Punk just work things out?" Otunga asks.
"Listen...CM Punk is just selfish. He's in it for himself okay? He's going to use all of you for his own personal gain."
"Ahem. Wade, were you just describing yourself? Listen...I can sum this all up and I think I can speak for the rest of Nexus that we're pulling for you tonight and wish you the best of luck."
"Yeah Wade."
"Go get 'em." Punk says, before shaking the hands of each member of Nexus.
"Punk is up to something." I comment.
Then the camera switches to Randy backstage staring off.
"Randy Orton...in 2010 you defeated both Sheamus and Wade Barrett, but this is a new year and tonight..."
"Last year...last year meant nothing...to me. The only thing I took from last year was The Miz cashing in his Money In The Bank contract and taking the WWE title from me. The problem with last year for me is that I was too...I was too nice. Every now and then I let my guard down and I actually showed human compassion. Last year I actually hesitated before kicking Chris Jericho in the skull. Now it's a new year and I am resolved to the fact that nice guys...finish last."
The camera changes again to the ring where they're lowering the cage, and we go to another commercial.
"Do we have to stick around for this? Or can we leave?"
"I think we can leave. We all know Orton will win and Lyssa fell asleep." Mike says.
"You can carry her out to the car, I'll carry the stuff."
He nods and we all get ready to leave.
