April 2, 2006: At
WrestleMania, Edge and Lita come out wearing adorable matching outfits. Edge still has the baseball bat Mick Foley gave him the
prior week on RAW and seems ready for the match. Foley soon comes out, and it is a bloody and brutal contest as Edge delivers a
Spear very early on. He writhes in pain, and it is revealed that Foley wrapped barbed wire around his torso, leaving Edge with
a bloody arm. Foley bleeds from the face first as Edge uses Barbie against him. Mick rebounds with Socko, shoving it and a strip
of barbed wire into Edge's, and then Lita's, mouth. The match ends as Edge Spears Foley through the ropes onto a flaming table
on the arena floor below. Edge gets the pinfall and the win.
April 3, 2006: RAW starts with John Cena and
Triple H in the ring, with Triple H demanding a rematch for the WWE Championship after his loss at WrestleMania. Edge's voice then
interrupts, and he and Lita make their way to the ring. Edge tells "The Game" that he thinks he owns this place and can give himself
title shot after title shot, but that he tapped out and therefore goes to the back of the line. He, meanwhile, was victorious at
WrestleMania. The three end up setting a match for the main event, where Edge would team with Triple H to face Cena in a handicap
match.
During the match, Edge does all the work while Triple H lounges on the turnbuckle. There is a mishap when the Rated R Superstar
accidentally nails Triple H with a Spear meant for Cena. He shrugs it off and the champ hits punches on him in the corner. Triple H
gets back up, shoves Cena out of the way and beats on Edge himself. Cena tries to go for the 5 Knuckle Shuffle, but Triple H gets him
in the Pedigree and pins him for the three. Afterward, Edge stares after him with anger.
April 10, 2006: It is announced that at
Backlash, there will be a triple threat match for the WWE Championship. As for RAW, for the second week in a row, Edge, John Cena and
Triple H are involved in a handicap match together - only this time, Cena and Triple H team up to take on Edge. Lita serves as a good
asset at ringside as she distracts Triple H. Edge beats him up outside the ring and throws him into the steel steps. At the end, Triple
H pulls Edge off of Cena's shoulders as the champ was preparing for an FU and Pedigrees him. Cena picks up Triple H and gives him the
FU instead, then slaps the STFU on Edge, who quickly taps out.
April 17, 2006: Early in the
night, Triple H encounters WWE Chairman Vince McMahon backstage as he is leaving the arena. An angry Vince verbally recalls that last
week, "The Game" called him "the old man." For that, he was punishing Triple H by making him face both Edge and John Cena in a handicap
match in the main event.
Later, backstage before the match, Triple H approaches Edge and Lita and tells Edge that he can blame Mick Foley all he wants, but it
was Cena who beat him for the title. And in the match, it is Edge who gets the last laugh - the referee gets knocked out, Triple H retrieves
his sledgehammer and uses it on Cena, but Edge is too quick and delivers a Spear for the three-count and the win. He and Lita laugh as they
look back toward the ring, where Cena still lays out cold and Triple H stares angrily after them.
April 24, 2006: For the second week
in a row, Edge and Lita outsmart John Cena and Triple H (well, maybe not Cena so much as Triple H) as Edge speaks privately with Cena and
Lita talks with "The Game." It's mentioned that Edge and the other two competitors have got to stay on the same page for their evening's
handicap tag team match against The Spirit Squad. Edge actually starts off the contest for his team but ends up walking away with Lita
as Cena and Triple H are fighting it out in the ring together against their opponents. The couple laugh it up on the ramp, with Edge
perfectly happy to do so instead of fight alongside his two nemeses and foes for the WWE Championship.
April 30, 2006: Edge faces
John Cena and Triple H in a no DQ triple threat match for the WWE Championship at Backlash. He gets put in Cena's STFU, delivers an
Edgecution to Triple H on the Spanish announce table and gets bashed in the head with a chair by Triple H but still stays strong
throughout it all. Lita gets involved in the bout by grabbing the top rope as Cena is preparing for the 5 Knuckle Shuffle and then
later brings a chair into the ring to hit Triple H, only to fall victim to a Spinebuster (complete with the chair falling from her hands
to hit her on the head). Unfortunately, although Edge doesn't win the match and the title along with it, it is Triple H who actually loses.
