SmackDown Filming: October 20, 2009
"I'm the Queen of Chaos. I'm the biggest star in the entire Divas division right now. I will crush her in the ring tonight." I tell Randy.
"Have fun with that." Randy responds as he watches me put my makeup on.
"Oh, Randy, I will make sure to make this fun tonight."
"Of course you will."
"I can beat Natalya. I'm not worried about her in the slightest."
"Wasn't she the one you used my Punt Kick on when you formed the Divas of Domination?"
"Yes, hope you don't mind what I did, babe." I wink at Randy.
"I think we moved past that quite some time ago, but on the topic of you doing things people could have issue with, maybe don't beat up another commentator tonight."
"I make no promises when it comes to Michael Cole. I'm not a big fan of the guy. I'll leave anyone else be unless provoked, but I make no promises when it comes to Michael Cole. I need to stretch. My match is really soon."
"I'll help."
"I don't need it." I start with a butterfly stretch.
"You sure you don't?"
"Yeah, I'm good. Did you hear about this NXT thing that's planned to start in February?"
"Yeah, I actually got an offer to be one of the pros for it."
"Did you say yes?"
"No, I got Ted and Cody to mentor right now."
"Good point, but it sounds kind of cool. The Divas of Domination could be broken up soon. If they do one with Divas and I'm not busy with my girls, they should let me be one of the pros."
"They'll have to find a rookie as crazy as you for that to work."
"I'm sure it's possible, plus I think they're using people from FCW as the rookies. I know a lot of the girls from FCW. Can you help me with this leg stretch?"
"I thought you didn't need my help." Randy crosses his arms. "Yes, I will help you."
I lay on the ground, and he pushes on my extended leg to help me stretch. "Thanks, Randy."
Randy helps me stretch the other leg. "No problem. I actually benefit from this. It gives me a nice view of your ass."
"Do you always have to be thinking about my boobs or ass?"
"Well, I love your body. I do it in a complementary way only. You know I mean well."
I roll my eyes. "I know."
"So what's up with Gail? I thought you weren't friends after the whole Diva faction war earlier this year."
"We're friends again. I was thinking about her earlier actually and how she said that I'd be successful in this company. Oh, how right she was."
"When did she tell you that?"
"When we met."
"Five years ago, when I brought you around?"
"Yes, five years ago."
Ted and Maryse walk into the locker-room.
"Rissa, you're next." Maryse tells me.
"Okay, I should go. Bye, guys." I exit the locker-room to go have my match.
I know I want that girl so bad
I lie awake at night
And think of all the things that I would do
With a girl like that…
"This is a Divas match scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, being accompanied to the ring by Eve Torres and Gail Kim, representing the Raw Divas, from Saint Louis, Missouri, the WWE Women's Champion, Marissa!"
("New Foundation" plays)
"And her opponent, being accompanied to the ring by Beth Phoenix and Michelle McCool, representing the SmackDown Divas, from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Natalya!"
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Natalya and I lock up. Natalya throws me across the ring. I landed on the ground near the ringpost. I get up. Natalya runs at me. I move out of the way, and she hits a turnbuckle. I throw Natalya outside of the ring. Michelle and Beth go to help her. I do a Suicide Dive on all three of them. I throw Natalya back in the ring and pin her.
1...2...kickout!
Natalya gets up and flips me onto the ground. Natalya locks me in a Sharpshooter.
"Tap!" Natalya yells at me. "Tap!"
I reach out and grab the ropes to force a rope break. Natalya lets me out of the submission. I kick her in the face when she tries to grab me. I get up and slap her across the face. Natalya runs at me, but I grab her and hit a Chaotic Ending. I pin her.
1...2...3!
"Here is your winner, Marissa!"
Eve and Gail enter the ring and raise my arms in celebration.
Michelle enters with a microphone. "You might've won tonight, Marissa, but you won't win this Sunday at Bragging Rights."
"You think you can beat me?" I question with arrogance. "Good luck with that. It's not gonna happen."
"Actually, I know I can beat you, Marissa. You'll see this Sunday."
"Prove it then. Michelle, if you know you can actually beat me like you claim, prove it right now."
Michelle attacks me. I fight back. We roll out of the ring. I throw her into the barricade. Michelle kicks me in the face. I grab my Women's Championship and hit her in the face with it. I look down at her with a smug look on my face.
I walk up the ramp. "Bragging Rights will belong to Raw!"
I look at the girls as we all sit together in the locker-room. "I don't know when it'll be yet, but I've gotten Stephanie to allow me to talk directly to Creative about them trying to split us up."
Michelle nods. "So what're you gonna tell Creative?"
"I'm not sure of the exact words yet, but I'm likely going to go in there with physical proof of our popularity and show them what a big mistake they're making."
"What if that doesn't get them to budge on the decision?" Eve questions.
"Then, I'm gonna lay into them. The Divas division hasn't had a popular act on this level since Trish and Lita both retired. I love this job and this division, but the Divas have been in a slump since they retired. It wasn't my purpose behind wanting us to be a faction, but we've got the popularity this division has been missing. I think the people behind the scenes don't like it, but I'm gonna fight for it. We need this. Our division needs this. It isn't even just about the four of us anymore. It's about our whole division, even the women we don't get along with. The Divas aren't supposed to be as popular as the Superstars. It's wrong. We forced them to do stuff for us, like give us merchandise and t-shirts. We draw ratings, and people are paying attention to our division. We need this for all of the Divas. It's benefiting everyone. I'm gonna fight for us, whether the people behind the scenes like it or not."
"Do you want us to go with you?" Maryse asks. "I'm more than willing to go with you for this."
I smile as Michelle and Eve nod in agreement. "I really appreciate it and know all three of you would go with me, but if things backfire, I don't want you to get heat for it. I gotta do this alone."
Michelle smiles at me. "I understand, but if you decide you've changed your mind, you know we're there."
"We all knew this was big for the Divas division when we decided we wanted this." Eve tells the rest of us. "I think we all were ready for the risks when we decided we were doing this thing. I regret nothing. We did something huge for our division right now. I don't know if there's ever been a faction of this many Divas before. We're unique, and I'm not sorry if some people don't like it."
Maryse nods. "We're in this together until the end of this. Marissa, we have your back. Keep us posted and do what you feel you need to."
