Smackdown emanated on Friday night from the University of Tennessee, it was good to be back in the USA. Tasha and Colby sat in the locker room with Jon watching as Michael Cole started off the show by announcing the arrival of Triple H. The boss was less than happy to be a part of this interview, he was still smarting from the AA he took from John Cena through a table on Monday.
At Triple H's request Team Cena minus the man himself came out onto the stage, Siren standing in the middle of the massive men.
"So, gentlemen and lady, as Triple H eluded to I had the opportunity to interview your captain, John Cena, this past Wednesday on , I'm sure you've seen the interview. But I do want to play one part of it back and this is where I asked John Cena, "Do you feel responsible for what happens to your teammates at Survivor Series?"
The group of five turns to look up at the big screen behind them as the interview with John plays.
"As far as my teammates, I have given that a lot of thought and I'm asking them to make a leap of faith. I understand that. I'm asking them to make an unpopular decision. I'm asking them in essence to put their livelihood on the line. I know that Stephanie McMahon and Triple H will know each person that stands by my side and hold that with vengeance. That's why we got to win."
The video stops playing and the group turns back to the ring where Triple H is laughing. "Wow. John Cena feels responsible for you. That's very nice of John. He feels responsible and he is asking you to take a leap of faith, to put it all on the line. Here's the thing, you better hope that John Cena's feelings are gonna cover all of that, because you wanna know what happens on Monday when at Survivor's Series you lose, and trust me, you will lose. On Monday, every single one of you, especially you Siren, are fired."
The group of five glances at one another, they were sure they had this match in the bag, but now they were beginning to doubt themselves.
Siren and Dolph shake off Triple H's announcement as they head down to the ring for his match against Rusev. It was clear throughout the match that Rusev was under orders to make sure that Dolph didn't make it to Sunday. Siren and Lana were hurling insults at one another in Romanian, across the ring as they both cheered on their men.
Rusev manages to counter Dolph finishing move, turning it into a super kick which puts Dolph down for the count, giving the win to Rusev.
Siren didn't have a chance to go back to the locker room as she had to accompany Dean to the ring for his promo. He was going to show the world his survival kit for his match against Bray Wyatt at Survivor Series.
Siren smiled as she walked to the ring beside Dean, despite her concern for Sunday, it was hard not to be happy when she was with Dean. He was a lunatic and her partner in crime, people said that they had way too much fun together.
"I'm obviously not your average run of the mill WWE Superstar to walk down that isle. They say I have quirks and eccentricities, and they'll try to tell you that I got screws in the head or something and that's fine. You can say whatever you want about me, I don't care. Because if I've proven anything, it's that I'm a survivor and I will continue to survive and thrive in WWE no matter who or what stands in my way.
Let me tell you a little story. A story about when I was a young boy. My mother hands me a $20 bill. She says, "Walk down to the store, get me a pack of cigarettes and some scratch-off lottery tickets." So, I'm walking down the street and I ran into a group of older guys. They want to know what I got on me. And they rough me up pretty good and they take my $20 bill. I go home to my mom empty-handed. I tell her what happened. She opens up a drawer, she pulls out a pair of brass knuckles, she hands them to me and she says, "Well, don't ever let it happen again."
These brass knuckles are your survival kit and I carry a survival kit with me wherever I go to this day. My hands, my feet, my knees, my elbow, my head, my teeth, I'm a walking talking survival kit and I will bite, scratch, claw, punch and kick whatever it takes at Survivor Series. I'm gonna break Bray Wyatt's nose and his teeth. He's never gonna wanna open his mouth again. I'm gonna take this fist and I'm gonna bounce it off his skull over and over and over, and I'm not gonna stop until his eyes are swollen shut and my knuckles are bleeding. If Bray Wyatt wants to survive, all he needs in his survival kit is the ability to run, run and hide, hide in the shadows. Run, back to the woods or wherever it is you say you came from. Bray Wyatt said a lot of things about me, about my dad, about my past, and a lot of it's true, so what? Yeah, he got under my skin just a little bit and that's only bad for him because Bray Wyatt, you're not talking to some scared lonely child, you're talking to a grown man. And now I am the hunter and you are the prey at Survivor Series. You will be stalked, tormented, and ultimately you will be put down."
The lights go out and Bray shows up on the big screen in what looks like a prison cell. "Let me ask you a question, Dean. Is this what it was like? Is this how you remember him? Locked inside a cage like an animal? And when you look at me right now, are you reminded of him? Hi, Dean, it's dad. Remember me? I'm the one who gave you life and then left you alone to rot in it. And I came here, Dean, today behind these bars to remind you that the apple does not fall far from the tree. This, this is your future, forever trapped inside a prison of your own desire, raging against these bars, begging for freedom that you'll not receive, praying to a deity that does not exist, so that you may save yourself as the walls of your subconscious close in ever so slowly. But it didn't have to be like this, Dean. It could've been different, man. You and I, we could've ruled the world. But you changed all that. So, instead, I am going to leave this cell, and then I'm going to leave you drowning inside a pool of your own filth just like daddy did. And in here, Dean, it can never end, it will never end in here, Dean. It never ends. It never ends."
Siren and Dean walk backstage and both of them burst out in laughter as they see AJ coming toward them, she's set for her match against Nikki Bella next. Last week Nikki had Brie dress up as AJ and then compete against her, to prove that Nikki could beat the Divas Champion. So it appeared that this week AJ was the one having the last laugh as she dressed up as Nikki. As she bounced past her two friends she winked, heading out to Nikki's theme song. Behind her Siren laughed out loud at the butt pads that AJ had in her shorts giving her a bubble butt like Nikki, and Siren could see Brie in the ring laughing as well, much to Nikki's annoyance.
There was a good note for Team Cena as Erick Rowan won his match against Cesaro, they needed this if they were going to have a unified team on Sunday.
Siren finally had a moment to go back to the locker room to see Seth, he gave her a sorrow filled gaze as she entered, sitting down on the couch beside him.
"I had no idea what he was going to do. I'm so sorry. I won't let him fire you, baby." Seth told her as he held her hands.
To his shock she smiled, "Cole, relax. I'm not going anywhere. We both know that Hunter will never fire me. He's just using it to stir John and the other guys up. I quit when you quit. Neither of us are going anywhere. Promise."
"Don't make promises you can't keep." He said with a small smile.
"I never do." She said as she kissed his lips. "You will never lose me again, and that's a promise I can keep."
Backstage Siren stood alongside Team Cena as Renee interviewed them about what Triple H said earlier on in the night.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, Siren, The Big Show, Ryback, Dolph Ziggler and Erick Rowan. What's your reaction to Triple H's declaration that come Survivor Series should you guys lose, every member of Team Cena except for John Cena will be fired?"
Show took it upon himself to answer for the group, "Now it's true what Triple H said made all of us think pretty hard. We could lose our jobs. And just like Stephanie McMahon and Triple H, now that we can lose our jobs, they can lose their jobs as well. Now triple H's tactics didn't have the intended effect. You think we're cowering from that? There's nothing more that we want than to rid the WWE of The Authority. Once and for all, we are committed to this. We're not gonna back down. We're not gonna run and hide. We're in this far, you can bet your boots, we are gonna finish it."
"Actions have consequences." Ryback says. "I knew when I joined Team Cena, my job would be on the line. Well that just makes the big guy hungrier. And tonight, the big guy and the Big Show, we're gonna feed on Kane and Seth Rollins. And come Sunday, The Authority's empire is gonna come crumbling down at the feet of Team Cena and Team Ryback."
Renee moves the mic over to Dolph who sighs, "Renee, The Authority has put me through the ringer week after week. And Monday, I lost the Intercontinental Championship on RAW. The reason that title meant so much to me was, it wasn't just mine. I shared that title with the entire WWE Universe. So, you ask me, am I afraid of losing my job for being on Team Cena? It's simple, Renee, there's nothing to fear when you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. We have a chance to put the Authority out of power and I'm sure as hell not gonna back down now."
Siren smiles as Renee turns the mic towards her, "Renee, this isn't the first time that I have opposed The Authority, and it won't be the first time that I've been fired for standing up for myself and my friends. I'm not worried, I have faith in my team, I know we are all fighting for the good of this business. When Team Authority loses on Sunday, and I have no doubts that they will, then my former brother Seth Rollins better prepare himself for war. I told him months ago that I would destroy him if it was the last thing I ever did, and at Survivor Series it may just be. But no matter what happens on Sunday, I will live with the decisions that I have made. And if Monday night does turn out to be my last night in WWE, well then you can all bet, I'm not leaving without a fight."
Renee holds out the mic to Erick who is playing with a Rubik cube, "Erick, do you have something to say?"
Erick removes his sheep mask, "Freedom."
The guys all repeat the word as they put their fists out together in solidarity, yes Survivor Series, they would win.
Seth Rollins made his way out to the ring first, flanked by J&J Security, climbing the turnbuckle and holding up his briefcase with pride. Kane followed him out next, the demon looking ready to cause some destruction that night.
Rollins glowered as Siren came out first, her words from moments earlier ringing in his head. He had no doubt that if The Authority lost, that she would make his life a living hell. She was followed next by The Big Show and then Ryback, Seth swallowing thickly as both large men glared at him.
Siren smirked as she caught Seth's worried gaze, he was the smallest man in this match, but she knew that meant he was the fastest. Jojo then made an announcement that both Dolph Ziggler and Erick Rowan were banned from ringside, but not surprisingly none of The Authority members were banned.
The match was by far the most physical she had seen in a while, and despite Seth's size disadvantage, he put up a hell of a fight against the big men. She cringed but wore a smile as Big Show quieted the crowd, before landing a huge open palmed slap to Rollins' chest for the second time. She could see the large red welt on Seth's chest, she knew that he had to be hurting. But seconds later her amusement turned to fear as she watched Ryback lift Rollins up over his shoulders and throw him out of the ring. Seth fell a good ten feet unobstructed to the floor, missing Kane, who should have caught him, by at least two feet.
She kept her game face on, but her eyes shifted worriedly to Seth as he writhed in pain on the floor. At that time Triple H's music came on and the man himself came out onto the stage, followed of course by the rest of Team Authority.
The match continued with Siren standing on the side of the ring at the base of the ramp, she was keeping her distance from Team Authority as much as she could. As Ryback took the final fight to Rollins, slamming him repeatedly onto the mat, Siren knew that Team Authority was going to interfere to ensure that Ryback and Big Show got the beating that they deserved.
And of course the men outside started the melee as they took the fight to Big Show, in the ring Ryback was dealing with Rollins and J&J. Dolph ran down to back up his teammates only to be attacked by Harper. But then their saving grace came in the form of the big red monster Erick Rowan who went toe to toe with his former friend Harper.
It turned into an 8 on 4 attack until Big Show, whom they thought they had taken out got back into the ring. The entire Authority rushed him trying to knock the big man back down, but using his brute strength took out the Authority men one by one. Until of course Triple H evened the playing field with a steel chair, which he used to attack every member of Team Cena.
Siren stood outside of the ring, she wanted to help her team, but she knew the look in Triple H's eyes, and she would end up in the hospital if she got into that ring. But as the beating continued she fought with herself to stay out of it, and only a stern cautioning look from Rollins kept her on the outside.
Triple H finished off Ryback with a Pedigree, after repeatedly attacking him with a steel chair. As Smackdown went off the air, Siren stood outside the ring staring down Triple H amid the carnage of her team.
After helping her team members backstage Tasha went back to the locker room to change and gather her things up. Colby was already in there changing, she smiled as she noticed that he had already packed up her things for her. Giving him a thank you kiss she took her clothes into the bathroom and rinsed off, then got dressed and joined Colby once more. The two picked up their bags before they headed out to the rig where Daryl greeted them with a smile.
After Renee and Dean had joined them Daryl started the journey down to St. Louis, Missouri where Survivor Series was being held. The five chatted about their trip overseas and what Daryl did with his wife on his vacation.
Because they only had a day to get there and Daryl could only drive so far before he had to rest, he and Tasha traded off on driving. It was nice to be behind the wheel of her rig, it reminded her of her childhood, riding to the motocross races with her family. If someone had told Tasha when she was a kid that she would grow up to be an actress and a professional wrestler instead of a professional racer, she would have laughed. But yet, here she was, and she wouldn't change it for the world.
But even though she wasn't a racer anymore, it was still in her blood, she still lived and breathed it. Which was why you could usually find her on a Saturday night watching the current Supercross or Outdoor Motocross race on TV or her computer, while on the phone with her family as they were watching it too. She was friends with quite a few of the racers, having raced against them when she was younger. She was hoping now that her schedule was lightening up a little bit, that she may get a chance to attend a few races and see her friends again.
When they finally got to St. Louis, Tasha pulled the rig into the arena parking lot, the attendants showing her where she could park. John, Renee and Daryl took a rental car to the hotel, while Colby and Tasha stayed in the rig. They kept telling themselves that they would be together in public soon, so for now they chose to stay where they could be together.
Sunday morning Tasha joined Renee for a relaxing massage and facial at a local spa, the two women feeling instantly better when they returned to the arena that afternoon. Tasha made it a point to call her mother and wish her a happy birthday, her birthday was Saturday but being as Tasha was driving she couldn't call her then.
As they attended the usual meeting alongside Jon and Colby, the four of them were shocked to find out that the traditional Survivor Series match was not predetermined. This was the first time in Tasha's career that she could remember that happening. According to Hunter and Stephanie, it had been Vince's doing, he believed that the stakes were so high, that it was only fair to see how it really played out.
Tasha and Renee smiled as they rode the SOA Dyna's into the building, parking them on a square of red carpet near the front doors. The techs had hung up a banner behind the bikes with the SOA Reaper on it.
As the girls were polishing up the bikes Mikaze walked up with a box in his arms, setting it down on the floor at his feet. "Those look great, ladies."
"Thanks." Tasha said smiling as she stood up. "Are those the vests?"
"That they are." He smiled as he opened the boxes and lifted two vests out handing them to her.
"Oh, these look great, Kaze. Thank you so much." She admired the work on the vests, it was impeccable.
"I even made a few for the kids." He said as he held up two small kids' vests.
"Oh, they're so adorable." Renee said as both women gushed over the little vests.
"Hey, Siren." One of the PA's said garnering her attention. "You're up."
"Awesome." Tasha said with a smile.
She followed the PA to the front doors where fans were gathering to enter, there were already well over 10,000 and there were still 2 hours to go before doors opened. Tasha edged out of the doors behind the security guards that were blocking her from the fans. She stepped up onto a small stage they had set up before hand, taking the microphone from the PA amid the loud cheers of the fans that had finally noticed her presence.
"Hey everyone!" Tasha said waving to the fans. "How's everyone doing? Are you ready for Survivor Series?" The crowd's response was almost deafening as they screamed. "Okay, well, I have a special treat for you all today. As you know I filmed the final episode for Sons of Anarchy a couple weeks ago. Kurt Sutter was nice enough to let me keep both of the bikes that I rode during the course of the show. Now with the permission of Vince McMahon, I have them set up inside for all of you. I want all of you to check them out, sit on them, and take pictures. We have custom SOA vests as well for you to put on while you take the pictures. All I ask is that you please be respectful, those bikes mean a great deal to me. Have fun and be sure to tag myself and WWE in the pictures when you post them. I'll see you inside for the show!"
The crowd cheered as Tasha climbed back down and made her way back into the building.
The group had a nice lunch together while chatting with their other co-workers, after which they all dispersed to their locker rooms to get ready for the show. Tasha and Colby both sat on the couch as they heard the pyros go off, signaling the start of the show.
Colby glanced over at his woman, "No matter what happens tonight, we walk out of here together. I promise."
Tasha smiled, "You and me. Always, Cole."
Mr. McMahon headed to the ring to kick off Survivor Series, strutting to the ring to make yet another monumental announcement.
"Welcome everyone to Survivor Series! The word epic is thrown around a lot these days, but this Survivor Series will truly be epic. Matter of fact, I will guaran-damn-tee you that this will be a Survivor Series you will never ever forget. Here's one of the reasons why. Please welcome my beautiful daughter, Stephanie, and my son-in-law Triple H, The Authority."
Stephanie and Hunter made their way to the ring to Triple H's theme, both of them smirking as if they had the match tonight on lockdown.
"Dad."
Immediately the WWE Universe tells Stephanie how they feel about her with resounding loud boos.
"Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for such a warm welcome. I feel the love. And especially my love for you, dad. I have to say that you have given us this incredible opportunity here tonight and uh, we're not gonna let you down. We've worked so much and tonight we're going to make you proud. I have no doubt."
Hunter smiles, "Before I get to that I just want to say, ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Vince McMahon, the reason we are all here!"
"That's a bunch of crap! Let's get on with this, please." Vince says as Stephanie tries to get the fans to chant Vince's name. "With that in mind, please welcome the captains of Team Cena, John Cena and Siren!"
John and Siren walk out onto the stage together, forgoing their normal salute they make their way to the ring and climb inside staring Hunter and Stephanie down. Vince kindly hands the both of them microphones before he gets down to business.
"Alright John, Siren, you know the stakes. If Team Authority wins—Team Authority wins that means that you are personally responsible for the termination of contracts of your ex-wife and teammates. They will have no job come tomorrow night on RAW."
John turns to his side and looks at Siren, she gives him a smile and a nod, she's thought it over and has decided just like the others in the back, that it's all worth it. They'll never know if they can win, if they don't at least try. John nods back to her as Vince turns to Stephanie and Hunter.
"Likewise, if Team Authority loses, your team wins, then you two will no longer be in power."
"I got a question." John asks stepping forward. "If Team Authority does lose tonight, are you gonna be nice and walk out under your own accord, or are we gonna have to throw y'all out?"
"You're not gonna have a very good holiday, John. Let me just state that right now. You are going to be personally responsible for four men, men with families, men with kids, men with responsibilities, bills. Four men are gonna lose their livelihoods because of you. And Siren, your best friend, your ex-wife, the woman you used to love and cherish. She's gonna lose the one thing she loves most in this world, and that's gonna be on you.
That's gonna be hanging over your head, John. How's that gonna feel? You gonna—you gonna be happy about that, is that gonna bother you, or are you what I thought you were? Which is really just the guy that's just interested in John Cena? Because let me tell you what's gonna happen when you lose and you will lose. Tomorrow night those guys are going to come on their hands and knees begging and pleading to keep their jobs and they're gonna get fired anyway. And after they get fired they're gonna be ignored and once they're ignored, John, they're gonna be completely forgotten about. So, the fact is your teammates and Siren, are the ones with everything to lose."
Siren lifts her mic, her eyes burning holes into Stephanie and Hunter. "Give it a rest, Hunter. Yeah, I love wrestling, I love this business and I love each and every one of these fans. But you and I both know, that's not the one thing I love most in this world. And everyone in this ring and backstage knows, I may lose my job, but I'll never… lose… him."
The crowd cheers, not that they know who she means, but a lot of them could take a guess and they'd probably be right. Siren sees both Hunter and Vince give her a tiny wink, telling her she was right to say that, she was playing off the hidden storyline they had given her, making the WWE Universe want to know more.
Stephanie steps forward grinning, "That is a lot of responsibility and you know it to be true. These people, they'll drop somebody as fast as they possibly can as soon as they're gone, they're forgotten because they don't really care, you know that to be the truth, John. And it'll all be on you. But when it comes to The Authority, if by some miracle your team happens to win, then sure, we won't be directly here in charge of RAW and Smackdown every week, but we will be calling the shots from global headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut. Even if you can't see us here, we'll still be running the show. Isn't that right, Dad?"
Siren however smirks back at Stephanie, she knows by the look on Vince's face that he hadn't explained all of the terms and conditions to his daughter.
"That's not exactly what I had in mind." Vince says to the cheers of the fans. "I mean, you see, if Team Cena wins then that means obviously you're no longer in power. But what I mean by no longer in power is that you'll still have your desk jobs, you'll still be in charge of finance, marketing, maybe even legal, but in no way at all will you ever have any influence over the careers or over the personal lives of any WWE Superstar."
Both Siren and John smile wide as the crowd cheers, Siren reaches up and fingers her necklace with Seth's initials, much to the annoyance of Stephanie.
"Furthermore, I have so much confidence—so much confidence in you two that I've arranged in the contract the fact that there's only one man who could ever bring you back to authority, to power."
"And dad, you know we have the utmost respect for you. You know that we love you more than anything. We're spending the holidays together with our grandchildren and we know that you have the bigger picture in mind, always. You have the bigger vision and we know that you'll do what's best for business." Stephanie says thinking that her father means himself.
"I always do what's best for business. I have so much confidence, so much confidence in the two of you being victorious tonight that the only person in the world that could bring you back to power, should you lose tonight, is John Cena."
Both Siren and John laugh out loud as they high-five one another, the crowd meanwhile is chanting, "Yes!" Siren sees Vince slowly but not stealthily sneaking his way behind his daughter and son-in-law, he shoots her a wink over their shoulder and she smiles.
"That's how much faith I have in you two, how much confidence I have. All I can say is you're a McMahon damnit, you married a McMahon, don't let me down."
"You can wipe that smug smile off your face, or I'll do it for you." Stephanie says getting up in John's face.
Siren inserts herself in between the two, putting her nose-to-nose with Stephanie. "And then I can punch you in the mouth again, just like I did on Monday Night, Princess."
Stephanie backs up with a smirk, "You know what? I love this. I love it. It gives us even more incentive to beat Team Cena and put your entire team out of work. I'm a McMahon, like my father said. Adversity only makes me stronger!"
John leans over Siren's left shoulder, "Well, we're glad you feel that way. I'll spare you the details. You will lose tonight. And after you do, you will be out of power, with one man who has the ability to bring you back and that man is me, so your chances of ever, ever, coming back to work for the WWE— well, I'll steal a line from Mr. McMahon— there is no chance in hell!"
John drops the mic as he and Siren roll out of the ring and make their way to the back.
The two smile as they meet up with their teammates, all of the men nodding, they're all in and nothing is going to stop them from winning tonight.
Siren went back to the locker room to get ready for Dean's match which was third on the card. She smiled at Seth as she put Dean's shirt on, "Hey you okay?"
He nodded, "Yeah. Is it bad that I'm actually hoping we lose tonight?"
Siren was taken aback, "Why would you think that way?"
"Cause, at least with Stephanie out of here, we have a better chance of being together."
"True, but nothing says creative is gonna let that happen."
"Well, I can still hope." He said smiling, leaning up he kissed her lips. "Tell Jon to be careful. I'll see you when you get back. Be careful."
"Always." She winked before walking out of the room and meeting up with Dean.
Siren led Dean out onto the stage, the two knocking fists before they walked down and slid into the ring. They stood there as the lights went out and Bray made his way down to the ring, taking a seat in his rocking chair. A moment later he stood up and got into the ring as Siren climbed out, taking her place at ringside as the match got started.
The match was brutally physical, with both men beating one another in and out of the ring. Several times Dean had Bray on the mat with a clothesline and each time Bray managed to power out. Likewise Bray had Dean dead to rights multiple times with power-slams and suplex', but he didn't count on Dean having the will to kick out.
By the end of the mat Dean was running out of ideas as he managed to hit Bray with a clothesline and a quick elbow from the top rope, but still the man kicked out. Bray growing irritated took Dean outside of the ring and slammed him back first onto the steel steps, but as he shoved him back into the ring, Dean still had the guts to kick out of the cover. Bray sat up in the corner, to Siren and everyone else it looked as though he was about to cry in frustration.
He then rolled out of the ring and grabbed a microphone, tapping the end of it on his head as he rolled back into the ring. "Why? Why are you doing this, man? It didn't have to be like this, Dean! Me and you, we could have ruled the world together, man. There's nothing anyone back there can do to touch us, Dean! Me and you, we're special, Dean! Can't you see that? I'm sorry, man, but you chose your path."
Bray drops the mic, then he drops Dean back to the canvas with a left hand. Siren moves around the ring as Bray gets out of it, she stops over beside Dean, trying to will him back to his feet. She sees Bray pull two steel chairs out from under the ring and slide them inside. The ref takes one and tosses it outside, but the other Dean picks up. The ref yells at Ambrose not to hit Bray or he'll have to disqualify him, but Bray however is laughing, he wants Dean to hit him.
Dean is conflicted as he hears the ref yelling at him, so he turns his attention to his manager. Siren grins and nods giving Dean her permission to do whatever he wants. Nodding Dean slams the chair into Bray's gut, then brings it down on to his back. Neither Dean nor Siren care about the disqualification, this was just something that needed to be done. Dean then throws the chair down and delivers "Dirty Deeds" to Bray on top of the chair.
Dean climbs down out of the ring, he's already been disqualified so he didn't care. He pulled a table out and shoved it into the ring, getting inside he set the table up. Picking up Bray he laid him down on the table, before climbing up to the top rope and delivering a huge elbow to Bray snapping the table in half. But Dean wasn't done by a long shot, he again pulled another table into the ring laying it over the top of Bray, then slamming down on it with the steel chair. Dean again rolled back out of the ring and tossed several more steel chairs into the ring, piling them on top of Bray's body.
Ambrose then rolled out of the ring looking like he was leaving, but as he turned back the Universe realized that he wasn't done with Wyatt yet. He looked under the ring apron until he found what he wanted, pulling out a ladder much to the joy of the crowd. Shoving the ladder into the ring Dean got inside and set the ladder up, he looked over at Siren who was only concerned for his safety.
She watched in fear as Dean climbed up the ladder, but instead of jumping off, he just leaned on the top and smiled as his music played. Clearly Dean was looking ahead to their next pay-per-view, TLC.
Siren stood in the locker room watching the promo with The Authority, and she couldn't help but shake her head when Triple H reminded Seth that if The Authority lost, whoever took over would assure that he would never become champion.
She then settled into watch Roman's interview with Michael Cole, JBL and Jerry Lawler via satellite. She couldn't help but notice how good he looked, and not just in a healthy way. He had his hair down, a white shirt on and a black leather jacket.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome our guest at this time, joining us live, Roman Reigns!" Cole announced as Roman showed up on the big screen. "Roman, thank you so much for joining us at the event, Survivor Series, which has been very important to your career. Two years ago you debuted here and last year you tied a record for causing the most eliminations in a traditional Survivor Series tag team match with four, but tonight you're not competing. You're actually recording from an injury suffered a couple of months ago. How is the recovery coming along?"
"I got a lot of love for Survivor Series. I got a lot of history there as you said. Recovery's going good. I'm getting stronger every single day and I'm getting better, but I'd feel a whole lot better if I was there with you guys tonight in the Lou, Saint Louis. And if I was there, you want to know what I'd do? I said, do you want to know what I would do? I would cock this fist and I would make it rain in that bitch."
The crowd cheers as Roman sits back with a smile.
"Well, the point is, Roman, you're not here." JBL says. "And Seth Rollins, who was the leader of The Shield, is here. And how are you going to feel tonight while you're at home on vacation while Seth Rollins and The Authority could become victorious tonight and their power exponentially increase?"
"JBL, that's your question?" Roman says with a chuckle. "That's your question? Because that's a stupid question. How would I feel? I threw a cinder block at his head. I think the whole world knows how I feel about that slime ball, back stabbing, Seth Rollins. But what happens tonight, it doesn't matter who's in power to me. In a month's time Team Cena might be out. The Authority might be out. But I won't be. Around this time next month, Roman Reigns is back! And you can believe… that."
The camera cuts to the locker room where Siren is standing with Team Cena, Dolph is voicing his concern to Ryback and Big Show, while Erick sits behind them playing with his Rubik's cube.
"It's a big night for us big guy."
"Biggest night of our careers." Ryback agrees with him.
"Yeah, careers. That word, careers. Our careers are on the line. That's why we need to step up. Tonight is the night."
"We're taking advantage of it." Ryback says.
John walks in his face etched with worry as he pauses beside Siren. "I know tonight is the biggest night of your careers in the WWE. I—I… I'm going to do everything I can out there to make sure it's not your last."
"Come on, John." Dolph says with a sigh. "You and me, for some reason, have been on the same page since day one. You know why? Because we're fighting for what's right. I'm going to do everything I can for this team. Every last breath in my body to make sure I survive."
"John, we all know what we signed up for." Show tells his captain. "We all know what's at stake. We believe this is the right thing to do. Big guy."
"Tonight, it's feeding time and the big guy is hungry."
John smiles as he puts his hat on, "Good. There's only one thing left to do."
Behind Siren, Erick stands up, normally he would creep her out, but right now she only felt pride that he was on their team. He pushes the mask up off of his face and looks down at her, "Win."
All of them start laughing and shouting, "win!"
Siren stood backstage with her team when The Authority walked up, there were icy glares passed between all members, before Team Authority headed out one-by-one to the ring. Because they had been kept away from one another for most of the night, Seth shot Siren a wink before he passed through the curtain.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the co-captain of Team Cena, Siren!"
Siren smirked waving to the fans as she walked down the ramp and stopped at the bottom to await her team, she gave Lilian Garcia a smile at her warm introduction which the woman returned.
"And now, introducing Team Cena. First, from Hollywood, Florida, weighing in at 213 pounds, Dolph Ziggler!"
Dolph stopped at the bottom of the ramp, smiling as he stood next to Siren.
"Standing at 7 feet tall, weighing in at 425 pounds, he is the world's largest athlete, the Big Show!"
Show joined the two of them at the bottom, knocking fists with Dolph and Siren.
"Weighing in at 315 pounds, Erick Rowan!"
Erick paused in his stride to remove his mask, staring down his former brother in the ring.
"From Las Vegas, weighing in at 291 pounds, Ryback!"
The big guy looked hungry as he strode to the bottom of the ramp and paused by his teammates.
"And from West Newbury, Massachusetts, weighing in at 251 pounds, John Cena!"
John saluted the fans before he ran down the ramp, slapping hands with his team before the all climbed into the ring, each team member staring one another down.
Siren climbed out of the ring and stood by the apron as her team decided who would start out. The two men decided for both teams were Big Show and Mark Henry, who stood there talking shit to Show. After getting a pep talk from Triple H, Henry ran at Show and got a knockout punch to the face. Henry hit the canvas and Show covered him for the count, eliminating him within the first 30 seconds of the match. Show stood up his arms wide as he stared Triple H down.
Siren cheered along with the fans and her team, this was starting out in their favor, and she only hoped it stayed that way. But it was just the boost of confidence that her team needed, now they were jazzed up, bouncing on the ring apron itching to get this match over with.
While Big Show was distracted by Harper on the outside, Rollins tried a sneak attack from behind, but he was quickly thwarted and thrown into the corner by Show. The big man lifted his hand and Siren cringed as he brought it down on Seth's chest, she could hear the audible slap from across the ring.
Realizing he was no match for the big man, Rollins tagged in Kane, but Show instead shoved him to the corner and tagged in Cena. John immediately went after Kane, until the demon managed to get to his corner, tagging in Harper. But with a smirk, John tagged in Erick, knowing the man wanted a piece of his former brother. However as John and Siren started a "Rowan" chant to pump the man up, Rollins tagged himself in. Which Siren had to admit was a smart move on his part, better to keep the outside personal rivalries out of the match.
But it proved to be a bad move on Rollins' part as Rowan slammed him around the ring like a ragdoll. He then threw Seth into the corner and tagged in Ryback, who proceeded to unload on Rollins, practically dissecting him in the ring. It was then that Harper tagged himself in, but then realized he was no match so he tagged in Kane. After taking a beating from Ryback, Kane tagged in Rusev.
The two men exchanged blows in the middle of the ring, but Ryback was the victor as he planted Rusev on the mat with a spine-buster. He followed that up with a meat-hook clothesline, but as he went for his finisher Kane inserted himself into the ring.
Siren watched with wide eyes as members of both teams got into the ring, it was an old fashion melee as the men were fighting in and out of the ring. But it wasn't just them as Siren got into the fold as well, landing elbows and super-kicks to Noble and Mercury who were double-teaming John. She turned in time to witness Rollins delivering a curb stomp to Ryback in the ring, the official too concerned with what was going on outside the ring, never saw it.
Rusev took advantage and delivered a super-kick to Ryback, pinning him and eliminating him from the match. The two teams were once again even with four members as Big Show got into the ring to replace Ryback.
For the majority of the match Siren stood by John in the corner, she was trying to keep a strong face on for the fans, but inside she was a ball of nerves. As much as she said she didn't care about losing her job, she really loved the WWE. And the worst part about being fired would be leaving Colby, she didn't want to spend her days without him.
Dolph was fired up every time he got into the ring to fight, Siren was sure that if anyone was going to win this match for them, it would be Ziggler.
At one point towards the mid portion of the match Rusev had a beaten down Dolph laid out on the Spanish announcer's table, but as he went for a splash on top of him, Dolph rolled off of the table, Rusev was already midair by this point and planted himself, breaking the table into pieces. Aa the referee started the count Noble and Mercury struggled to get Rusev back into the ring. When the ref reached seven Dolph managed to roll himself back in and as the count hit ten, Rusev was counted out eliminating him. Siren yelped in joy as she praised Dolph, her team was now up on Team Authority.
The match reached the half hour mark and thanks to Rollins' distraction and his damn curb stomp, Rowan was eliminated evening the teams out again. However the biggest blow of the night came as Big Show stood in the ring next to John, staring down Team Authority. Without any reason whatsoever Big Show turned and knocked out Cena. Rollins quickly eliminated him as Show walked over and shook hands with Triple H.
"You cowardly, backstabbing, traitorous, sonofabitch!" Siren screamed as Show walked past her and headed back up the ramp.
So it came down to Dolph, taking on Team Authority alone. Siren however was livid as Stephanie rounded the ring and proceeded to talk shit to John. Feeling the fire in her raging, Siren walked around behind Stephanie, waiting for the woman to turn around. When she did, Siren slugged her full force in the mouth, sending the billion dollar princess straight to her ass.
Siren forced herself to stay calm as she stood in the empty corner and cheered Dolph on, she knew that he could do this. "Come on, Dolph! You got this! You can do this!"
With a super-kick to the face Dolph eliminated Kane, before he took a big boot to the face from Harper that knocked Dolph out of the ring. Harper grabbed him and threw him back inside looking for another super-kick which he delivered, but everyone was shocked as Dolph kicked out of the cover. Harper then delivered a power-bomb, but much to Team Authority's chagrin, Dolph kicked out of that too. As Harper went to grab Dolph, the Showoff managed to roll Harper up into a small package and eliminate him.
Siren screamed in happiness, throwing her hands up in the air, it had now come down to Ziggler and Rollins. She was loving the horrified looks on the faces of Stephanie and Hunter, the two were growing more anxious as the match went on. They realized they had underestimated Dolph and he was now the only thing standing in the way of them being gone.
Rollins stood on the apron with his hands in his hair, he couldn't believe that Dolph had eliminated three of his teammates in less than ten minutes. It was now up to him to bring this home for The Authority, but there was a small part of him that was worried he couldn't do it.
Seth got into the ring and immediately went on the attack of Dolph, throwing him out of the ring and slamming him repeatedly into the barricade. He got Dolph back into the ring and went for the cover, but Dolph managed to kick out.
The two went back and forth beating the hell out of one another, both of them going for covers on one another, but each of them managed to kick out. Triple H was beside himself outside the ring, berating Noble and Mercury until the two got up on the ring apron to try and distract Dolph. But the distraction only proved fatal for Rollins as Dolph managed to hit the "Zig-Zig" on him. But as Dolph went for the pin that would win the match, Triple H asserted himself by dragging the ref out of the ring and slugging him in the face.
With the ref down Noble and Mercury got into the ring and attacked Dolph, which was a mistake as Siren rolled into the ring and nailed Noble with a super-kick. She then turned her attention to Mercury who was holding Dolph in front of him. With a quick jerk of her head telling Dolph to move, she slammed her heel into Mercury's face which sent him falling back against the ropes, subsequently knocking Stephanie off of the ring apron, and sending her crashing into her husband.
In the ring Dolph managed to avoid Rollins' curb stomp, instead hitting another "Zig-Zag" on the team captain. Another ref ran down quickly and started the count, but just as his hand was coming down for the three count, Triple H slid into the ring and attacked the poor man. Triple H then threw the ref out of the ring and ripped off his jacket, he was going to end this himself.
He started beating down on Dolph, before hitting him with a vicious clothesline that nearly turned Dolph inside out. He picked Dolph up and went for the Pedigree, then drug Rollins over the top of Dolph, effectively sealing Team Cena's fate. Triple H called for another ref, which turned out to be his buddy Scott Armstrong.
Siren was beside herself with what to do to help Dolph as Armstrong raised his hand to count. But as his arm came down for one, the lights in the arena dimmed low and a crow was heard throughout the arena. Siren knew that call, she turned to see a video flashing across the big screen, she wasn't sure if it was really him, but she prayed to whatever God was listening that it was.
Then as if her prayers were heard and answered the man himself walked out onto the stage, the crowd went crazy, the roof threatening to blow off of the arena with the sheer volume.
"Sting." She said with a relieved smile.
She stood her ground at the bottom of the ramp as the man walked down and stopped beside her. Giving her a nod and a wink, he slammed his fist into Armstrong's face as the ref rushed him, then his attention turned to Triple H who stood in the ring, his face a mixture of fear and anger at Sting's arrival.
She watched with baited breath as Sting slowly climbed the stairs and got into the ring with Hunter. The two men stood, staring one another down, daring the other to make the first move. And it was Triple H that threw the first blow, but Sting ducked under it catching Triple H with a kick to the stomach. Sting then grabbed Hunter and to the roar of the crowd planted Triple H with the "Stinger". He then rolled Rollins over and drug Dolph on top of him for the cover, before he simply got out of the ring and walked up the ramp.
Taking this as her cue, Siren ran around the ring and picked up the second ref that Triple H had attacked, practically shoving him into the ring. "Count it!"
The ref raised his hand and slowly made the count. One… Two… Three!
"Yes!" Siren screamed as she slid into the ring and practically tackled Dolph as he got to his feet. "You did it! Damnit, Dolph, you did it!" She hugged him tight before they rolled out of the ring, she held him up as they backed up the ramp his hand raised high in the air.
As they reached the top of the ramp John walked out to meet them, pulling Dolph into a hug, before both he and Siren raised Dolph's hands in the air to the tumultuous roar of the crowd. Then together the three of them walked to the back as The Authority started to rouse themselves from their stupor.
In the back Team Cena stood laughing, watching the monitor as Stephanie bawled in the ring, as the crowd started singing to them and then chanting "You got fired!" The show went off the air as Stephanie threw a temper tantrum in the middle of the ring.
Siren and the team stood proudly, smiling wide as Stephanie and Hunter sulked past them towards the doors. But it seemed as though the princess wasn't going to leave without saying her peace as she turned and got up in Siren's face.
"You can smile all you want, Siren. You may have won this battle, but you will lose the war." Stephanie made it a point to look over her shoulder where Seth had just walked through the curtains. "You will lose him. You have taken the one thing I care about in this world away from me. So, if it's the last thing I do, I will take him from you."
Despite Stephanie's threat, Siren smiled, "Wow, Steph, and here I thought your family was the one thing you cared about. You can make all of the threats that you want, but Colby and I will stay together. No matter what you do, you will never take him from me again. Bye Steph."
Siren turned and walked over to Seth, wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him deeply. He smiled as she pulled back from him, "I'm guessing she didn't have anything nice to say?"
"Does she ever when we're concerned?" Siren chuckled.
Seth shook his head, "Nope. But it doesn't matter." He wrapped his arms around her waist and locked his fingers behind her back. "No one will ever take you from me again."
Siren smiled before she heard a throat clear behind her, she turned to find Sting smiling at her. "Hey, stranger."
"Hello, pretty little one." He said as he gave her a hug. "So, this is the man that stole you from Cena?"
Siren smiled as she held Seth's hand and nodded, "Yes it is. Steve Borden, Colby Lopez."
"Nice to meet you." Sting said as he shook Seth's hand.
"Likewise." Seth said, before he glanced down at his girlfriend. "Do you know every legend?"
"I've been around WWE for a long time. I grew up here, these guys are my family. Surrogate dads, brothers and Uncles."
"So what that means, is if you break her heart, there's a line of guys waiting to kick your ass, kid."
"Steve." Siren admonished as she shook her head with a smile.
"Duly noted." Seth said with a nod.
"Well, I'll see you two around." Sting said with a smile as he hugged Siren.
"You coming back to action?" She asked curiously.
Sting shrugged, "Maybe for a little while. Cause some havoc."
"Sweet. Can't wait." Siren said as she waved goodbye to him. "You ready to get outta here?"
"More than ready." Seth said.
So the two of them went back to the locker room and gathered their things up, after changing they headed out to the rig with Jon and Renee. Daryl dropped them off at the airport, since RAW was being held in Indianapolis they didn't have enough time to drive there. So while they flew to Indiana, Daryl would drive the rig up there and meet up with them after the show.
