A/N: I have not updated in FOREVER! Well this isn't much of one, but it is something. I was gonna go longer with this, but I really wanted to give something to the people who have been waiting for so long.
Now I need to do some shoutouts.
UnbelievinglyRandom-The person I am writing with on the AJPunk story, 'Think Twice'. Great writer and great person.
Red Foxy-Loyal reviewer and another amazing person that I have met on this site.
Punk hadn't seen AJ since they split on Tuesday afternoon. She had meetings to go to and he had appearances to make.
Now it was Monday and they were back on Raw. AJ's first night as General Manager. He was mildly amused from the fire that started only minutes before Raw was set to go live. Most of the roster and tech weren't surprised that it had occurred, he being one of those many.
He wanted to talk with her. But neither had the time. He groaned as he prepared to go out to the ring and cut the promo. This was gonna be his worst heel turn ever, if it could even be called that. He wondered what creative was thinking when they came up with this new change. It was probably off of his attack on The Rock.
Now it was not that he didn't feel slightly disrespected during his title reign. He never had thought much of it before. His die hard fans were much more adamant about him being the main event, that he should be and his matches were better than many that were. He already admitted before that he didn't care. That no matter when he wrestled whether first, 3rd, 7th, or even the precious last that he was ALWAYS the main event.
One thing did make him more willing to go with this. That was the words of Jerry Lawler, believing Punk had turned his back on WWE Universe. They still made his blood boil. He never turned his back on his fans. Yes, he did not give autographs or pictures to those who would shove things in his face and be rude. That was only about common courtesy, if they were polite then so was he. So what if he attacked the 'People's Champ' the man was after the championship that he had held for a continuous 9 months, and it wasn't ending there.
The cue of the music and he was out on display as he stepped through the curtain. Seeing the crowd as they cheered around him. Apparently the negative reaction he received at the end of Raw 1000 didn't last as some fans chanted his name while other merely let out incoherent screams of excitement.
He tried to smile since he was suppose to be serious. He stepped to the ring got a mic and everything. And maybe this wasn't apart of it, but it felt better to him. Slipping out of the ring he stepped to the announce table sitting crossed legged and quite uncomfortable on the uneven surface, but he didn't let it show as he spoke his mind.
Of course Big Show came. Punk rolled his eyes as he went into the ring with the man. Punk didn't blame Show for getting that iron clad contract, even if it cause big Johnny to stick around for a few more weeks. He had put a lot of himself into this business and had been under appreciated. Still Punk didn't see the giant as unstoppable. Even if the much larger man could throw him around like a rag doll like most of the roster.
Punk watched the spit fly from the angered giant's mouth as he spoke. Glad he was a save distance away. He tried to be too amused at the crowd's chants. But he was slightly nervous seeing the scowl of the giant man. Punk could only hope he wasn't in range of WMD or at least would have the reflexes to dodge the blow.
John came out not long after. Originally the plan had been for Punk and John to talk. John would become the number one contender, big surprise. And they would have a match at Summer Slam. But it looked like John was still on sore terms with a man they both had trusted as he went on the attack.
Punk stepped back wearing a bored expression as he walked the two. The familiar sounding of their new general manager's music came and it died down. All eyes going to AJ who had traded her usual attire for a pants suit, still wearing converse though. A bright smile on her face as she announced the main event, John Cena versus the Big Show to decide number 1 contender.
Punk wasn't jumping for joy at the prospects of having to go against Show. It fact he wasn't jumping for joy at all. Right after the segment ended he had near ran to catch the elusive diva, who had been skipping around the arena most of the night.
Finally he gave up. Returning to the locker he watched Daniel get escorted from the ring. AJ even calling Goat face mentally unstable. He didn't even bother holding in his laughter like many of the other superstars watching.
The show continued on not much different than any other. But he could feel himself getting more annoyed with each match. He didn't even have a match apparently. All of it was mildly disturbing for the champion. He feelings beginning to fester and grow until the title for the Number 1 contenders match.
He came out to do commentary. To watch the match like everyone else. He was bitter now. Any comment he made was crude and crass. But he mostly just tried to watch the match. He could be facing either of these men at Summer Slam. He wasn't interested in facing either.
The moment when John's body was hurled over the announce table. Punk was finally fed up.
"Screw this." He muttered under his breath. Climbing into the ring he kicked John's back as Big Show was hoisted on his shoulders. Both of them falling to the ring. When Big Show tried to get up Punk kicked his head for the effort.
People were shocked, but he didn't care. He was just pissed off. He gestured for a mic, snatching it out of the techs hands. "The winner of this match...is nobody." He announced panting slightly as he spoke. He dropped the mic walking away from the scene.
He was still a little ticked when he passed AJ as he went backstage only sparing a minor glance to the woman he had wanted to speak with all night.
Reaching the back the sound of her voice stopped him...
"CM Punk is wrong. They aren't losers, they're winners." She cheered with a large smile over her lips. "And CM Punk will defend his championship at Summer Slam. Against the Big Show...And John Cena!"
Punk whirled around going right back out. Glaring down at her. He didn't even know what he was saying. He sounded like a kid who didn't get a cookie. Either his brain had been fried from the building rage. Or that just looking at her made his mind go jumbled.
He knew now Raw had gone off air, but he was still letting out the fumes. All argument stopped as she blew him a kiss and left. His jaw dropping with shock. He looked to John and Big Show who were recovering.
John, who had seen the blown kiss, was smirking with amusement. His shoulders shaking slightly in a chuckle. Even giving a salute, which might have been respectful, but Punk could only think he was being mocked.
Punk just rolled his eyes at the self profess 'Champ'. A small growl in his throat. He walked backstage.
A/N: Sucks doesn't it?
I'm REALLY sorry for the lack and the long wait for the chapter. But inspiration has kinda been sucked out of me...Well maybe not inspiration, but motivation. I have the ideas, I just can seem to get to actually typing them up.
