Maverick's Bliss (A WWE Fanfiction)

6

It was Monday Night Raw. The night after TLC.
I was in my locker room watching monday night raw.
Kurt Angle is opening the show. He stands in the ring, mic in hand. After his theme stops playing and the crowd calms down, he begins to speak.

"As you know, we are officially headed to Survivor Series. The one night were Raw and Smackdown go heat to head".
The crowd cheers and he waits for them to calm down.
"Now that being said. It is my Job as your Raw General Manager to make sure the Raw Men's team is the best team that night".
The crowd cheers knowing some sort of big announcement is coming.
"In order to do that, we need a team captain that will lead team raw to victory. So tonight we will find that man. Because tonight's main event will be The Miz,Somoa Joe and Maverick. In a triple threat match and the winner will be team raw's captain. Oh its true, Its damm true!".
The crowd goes wild. There is definitely pressure on the Raw roster.

I hit the Miz with my signature superkick and quickly go for the cover.
1....
2....
Samoa Joe breaks hits me thus breaking the pin. I roll off the miz and Joe grabs my head and hits me with an elbow to the back of my head.
Joe then proceeds to pick up the miz and lock him in his signature submission.
I realized that joe has him in the middle of the ring and the miz has nowhere to go. I forced myself to crawl towards them and just as the miz is about to tap, I make a desperate jump and nail Joe. Forcing him to let the miz go.

Now all three of us are down on the mat. Its been a hell of a match so far and long. Im tired too but the match is not over yet.
I need to move. I can't stay down.
Somoa Joe begins moving first. He slowly begins getting up and I forced myself to begin moving too. Soon were both on our feet and he throws the first punch. I managed to keep my balanced and then I threw a punch at him. He goes for another punch but I blocked it with my arm and throw another punch at him.
Suddenly the Miz comes from behind Joe. He grabs his arms and nails him with his signature move. Skull Crushing Finale.
I take advantage and quickly toss the miz out the ring and pin Somoa Joe.
1....

2....

3....!
The winner of this match and Raw's Team Captain...Maverick!

My music hits and The crowd goes wild. I noticed the Miz's shocked expression as he sits on the outside.
I smile as I get up on the turbuckle and do my signature pose.

I walked thru the curtain and find the raw gm waiting for me.
"Congratulations on winning your match" kurt says with a smile.
"Thanks".
"Listen" he says.
"Your the Raw Team Captain. So I giving you completely responsibility of the team. Which means its your Job to bring together the best 5 man team to beat Team Smackdown".
He finishes and looks at me, waiting for my answer.
"Well thank you. I won't let you down" I tell him.
"Good" he says and pats me on my shoulder before walking thru the curtain.

Talk about pressure. It feels like the pressure to beat Smackdown just gets bigger.

I begin walking down the hallway heading towards my locker room. I turn the corner just as renee comes with a camera behind her.
"Maverick, could you please tell us what your plans are as Raw's Team Captain".
She leans the mic towards me.

"Well Renee, First and foremost its to garuanteed Raw's Victory. In order to do that I have to put together the best 5 man team. One of those men being me. That being said smackdown better come prepare....".
I am not allowed to finished as a dozen or more superstars, that I don't recognized, suddenly interrupt us.
I noticed their blue shirts with the smackdown live logo.
This is clearly bad news. Renee runs away and I know I should probably run but thats just not who I am.
They suddenly charge at me. I try to fight back but there are too many of them. They overpowered me and soon Im on the floor trying to cover myself with my hands. I hear someone say something about raw being undersiege. They eventually stop attacking me and walk away. I am left there daze wondering what just happen.

Kurt Angle walks into my locker room.
"How are you?" He asks.
"Are you okay?".
I sit with an Ice pack on my shoulder. Its been one heck of a night.
"Im fine kurt" I tell him slightly irritated.

"Listen, I just want to apologize..." he begins.

"Save your apologies" I interrupted him. He Just stares at me with a serious look as I stand up.

I continued. "I dont't need your apologies. After all none of this was your fault".

"Exactly" he says.

"If you want to help. Instead of saying Im sorry. How about you join Team Raw and together we can teach smackdown a lesson" I finished and he simply stares at me suprised.

"As much as I would like to its been 11 years since I last step foot in a wwe ring" he tells me.

"I don't care. I know you been waiting around for one reason. One good reason to finally get back into that ring. Well tonight Smackdown gave you that reason. They came in and tried to bring raw down. Raw..Your show. What are you going to do about it?"

I strae at him and he looks away. He begins to nod after a few seconds of thinking.

"Ok" he says. "You got yourself a deal. Count me in".

I smiled and shake his hand.

"Good to have you as part of the team".

I walk out of my locker room after what has been a long night. I walk down the hallway,luggage ind hand. Ready to get on the road and head to our next destination.

I turn the corner just in time to see Alexa talking to a guy that I don't recognize. Ive haven't seen him around here yet. Somehow they don't notice me.
"What do you want" she asks him
"I want you" he admits.
She stares at him with a blank expression.
"what did you say?" She asks him.
"Exactly what you heard alexa. I want you back" he admits to her.
She looks at him speechless. Quite honestly, Im also speechless.
"I shouldn't have treated you the way I did. I want you to please give me another chance alexa" he tells her.
"Murphy" she slowly begins speaking.
So his name is Murphy.

"Please" he begs her.
She remains silent and thats when I see it.
I can see it in her eyes. She feels sorry for him. Thats when I feel it. The sting. For some reason it bothers me to see her looking at him like that. Its almost as if she is thinking of giving him another chance.
"Murphy, Lets not talk here please" she tells him.
"We don't have to. How about we go get some food and we talk about it".
She sighs but agrees.
I quickly turn and go back around the corner as they turn around.
I hear them walk away.
