Whoa I'll never give in

Whoa I'll never give up

Whoa I'll never give in

And I just wanna be, wanna be loved…

"The following is a SmackDown versus Raw Divas Elimination Tag Team match! Introducing first, representing Raw, Eve Torres, Gail Kim, and, the Raw team captain, the WWE Women's Champion, Marissa!"

So you think you can shoot your mouth off,

Well you better watch your aim

There's nothing left for you to figure out

You're going down, You're going down!...

"And their opponents, representing SmackDown, the team of Natalya, Beth Phoenix, and the SmackDown team captain, Michelle McCool!"

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Michelle and Gail start the match off. They both repeatedly unload Right Hands on each other until Gail hits an Eat Defeat on Michelle and goes for a pin.

1...2…

Beth and Natalya break up the pin. Beth hits Gail with a Glam Slam. I run in and chase them off and out of the ring. Michelle pins Gail.

1...2...3!

"Gail Kim has been eliminated."

Eve steps in the ring. Michelle tags in Natalya. Natalya hits a Thesz Press on Eve. Eve catches Natalya with a headbutt. Eve then hits a DDT on Natalya. Eve then goes up to the top turnbuckle and hits a Moonsault. She pins Natalya.

"Natalya has been eliminated."

Beth steps in and hits Eve with a Clothesline. Beth harshly hits Eve with a Glam Slam and pins her.

Eve kicks out and tags me in. Beth tags Michelle in at the same time.

I hit Michelle with a Thesz Press and continue to punch her. The referee pulls me off. I hit Michelle with a Clothesline and then pull her up by her hair before I hit her with a Powerbomb. I pin her.

1...2...kickout!

I decided to tag in Eve. Eve runs in to catch Michelle with a Clothesline, but Eve gets hit with a Big Boot. Michelle pins her.

1...2...3!

"Eve has been eliminated."

I slowly step into the ring. Michelle tags in Beth.

Beth slaps me and picks me up for a Glam Slam, but I counter it into a RKO. I go for a pin.

Michelle breaks the pin. Beth picks me up and hits a successful Glam Slam and goes for a pin.

1...2...kickout!

I get up and hit Beth with a Chaotic Ending. I knock Michelle off the apron before pinning Beth.

1...2...3!

"Beth Phoenix has been eliminated."

Michelle gets in the ring, and we have a staredown. I avoid her Clothesline and hit her with a Dropkick. She gets back up and tackles me to the ground. I am hit with numerous punches before the referee pulls Michelle off of me. When the referee lets go of her, I hit her with a Chick Kick. I go for a pin.

1...2...kickout!

Michelle gets up and hits me with a Faithbreaker. She pins me.

I get up and Irish Whip Michelle into a corner. I lifted her up onto the top turnbuckle and hit a Superplex. When she's on the ground, I lock in a Sharpshooter. Michelle reaches the ropes, forcing me to release.

We hit each other with Right Hands. Michelle then goes for a Faithbreaker, but I fight back and counter it into a DDT. I pin her.

1...2...kickout!

Michelle hits me with a Clothesline before picking me up. She hits another Faithbreaker and pins me.

1...2...3!

"Here are your winners, the SmackDown Divas!"

I wasn't even mad. This will be a good beginning to a rivalry if it still happens.

The girls, Cody, Ted, and I watch backstage as John and Randy make their way down to the ring for their Anything Goes Ironman match for the WWE Championship.

"We should predict who will win." Ted tells the rest of us. "I say Randy."

"I agree." I responded. "I'm pretty sure I can't bet against my boyfriend anyway."

"I also think Randy wins." Eve adds.

"I think John." Michelle tells everyone. "Like Marissa, I can't go against my significant other."

"I also believe it will be John." Cody agrees.

"Same here. I'm also on John's side." Maryse says.

"I mean at the end of the day though, it's fine for us no matter who wins." I comment.

"So what do you think is next after these two have this match tonight?" Michelle asks me.

"Well, one of them will be going on as WWE Champion and defending the WWE Championship for a while. Not sure about the other though? I mean I guess if Randy does lose to John, maybe he'll focus on taking care of Kane once and for all and getting that finished. If Randy wins though, what does John do? Whatever storyline he gets probably?"

"That's what I would assume. Do you think Kane might even go after the WWE Championship again if Randy does win tonight?"

"Possibly, Kane is fixated on Randy and by extension, me. He probably would go after the WWE Championship again if Randy has it."

"Do you want Randy to fight Kane again?"

I sigh. "Not really honestly. I know there's a big chance that Randy could get hurt. That's the last thing I want to happen, but at the same time, I definitely agree with Randy that this needs to stop. Randy fighting Kane again might be the only way to stop it."

Everyone goes silent and just watches John and Randy's Ironman match. When the time runs out, John has six points while Randy only has five points..

"Here is your winner and the NEW WWE Champion, John Cena!"

I wasn't upset with John winning. Randy wouldn't be either, and the pair had just put on an amazing match. I was just worried because I knew this left Randy free to focus entirely on Kane now. I agreed this needed to be finished, but I couldn't help myself from worrying about Randy's well-being.

I tense up as Kane goes after Randy as he's still recovering on the ground from the end of the match with John. Kane lifts up Randy and hits him with a Chokeslam. Randy goes to roll out of the ring to protect himself from further harm, but Kane stops Randy by grabbing him again and hitting a Tombstone Piledriver.

Kane grabs a microphone. "This isn't over Randy. You took away what I care about. Now, I'm gonna continue to go after you and go after what you care about."

Everyone in the room glances over at me.

I look over at Ted and Cody. "Why didn't you guys go out there to help Randy? That's what you usually do."

Ted and Cody exchange a look and don't respond to me.

I narrow my eyes. "Cody?"

Cody sighs. "Randy specifically told us not to do anything if Kane came after him tonight. He wanted us to be here to protect you just in case instead. You were the only one in this room who didn't know Randy wanted that. He knew you'd want us to help him instead."

I shake my head. "Of course Randy asked you to do that. He would do that."
