Edge couldn't help smiling to himself as he sat in the locker room and prepared for his match.
He and Christian had demanded a rematch for the Tag Team championships from Lieutenant Commissioner Debra after overhearing the busty blonde giving Road Dogg and K-Kwik another shot. If they hadn't overheard the woman making the unfair match - because, as he'd pointed out to Debra, the two reekazoids had accomplished a great big pile of nothing - they'd have lost their chance. Commissioner Foley had said he and Christian were to get no more title shots against the Hardy Boyz - but Matt and Jeff were no longer the champions - Right to Censor were. And that, of course, was all due to them.
At the very moment, none of this was really concerning Edge. Instead, he was reflecting on the previous night, when he and Lita had had their little talk. He was practically bursting with excitement. The redhead had really surprised him in agreeing to tape the two of them having sex. God, she was awesome... Despite what Christian thought of Lita, the divas definitely reeked of awesomeness.
Edge's smile stayed intact as he thought about how much he loved Lita. The tape would be for them, for just the two of them to enjoy. He couldn't wait to make the video...
His thoughts were interrupted as Christian suddenly returned to the locker room. Behind him, Stephanie, glancing around back into the hallway, stepped in as well.
The blond man came to stand before Edge, his hands clapping in front of him as he spoke.
"Well, tonight's match will be the stepping stone for us getting back our tag team champ-" He halted his speech as he peered at his friend. "What'd you do to your hair?"
The taller blond Canadian reached up to touch his golden locks.
"Oh, this..." He chuckled. "I just braided my hair a little to make fun of those dorkchops."
"Oh..." Christian let out a small laugh as Stephanie sidled up to him, the brunette linking her arm into her boyfriend's. "Well, I can't wait. Those two are so going down!"
"That's right!" Stephanie chimed in. "You two are so much more deserving than those wannabe rappers!"
"That's for sure..." The moment the words left Christian's mouth, his blue eyes shifted to the television monitor.
The Dudley Boyz, oddly enough, dressed like the members of Right to Censor, began to make their way down the ramp to the ring - where the Hardyz were in the ring for their title rematch against the Goodfather and Bull Buchanon of the RTC.
Edge squinted in confusion. He and Christian had nothing to do with this weird turn of events. He wondered what the hell was up.
As the three of them watched, Bubba Ray and D-Von interfered, costing the Hardyz the match.
"All right!" Christian exclaimed, reaching out to give the taller man a high-five. Whatever the Dudleys had in mind, it definitely worked in the Canadians' favor.
But what Edge took a much greater interest in happened five minutes later. The Hardyz were shown in their locker room, with none other than Lita. His gaze softened as he took in the diva's appearance. She looked lovely as ever, and he couldn't wait to get her alone after RAW.
As Stephanie and Christian conversed on the other side of the room, the tall blond man continued eyeing the TV. And he grew angry as Dean Malenko suddenly appeared at the Hardyz's locker room.
Edge's hands clenched into fists, his jaw setting angrily as well as the Radical offered his girlfriend a bouquet of daisies and asked her to think about going out with him.
"Thought about it - no!" the redhead snapped, then hit Malenko over the head with the flowers. Matt slammed the door behind the man, and for once, Edge was glad for the Hardy Boyz. Who knew what Dean would be capable of if he and Lita were alone?
Little did he know that his girlfriend's problems with the Radical were only just beginning...
