*before the show*

Everyone is seen preparing for the show to begin while the wrestlers are worried about Michael. Last night, Michael went through two matches at Survivor Series, literally surviving two opponents, Daniel Bryan, and Roman Reigns for the United States Championship and World Heavyweight Championship.

The last match put everyone on edge as Michael was stumbling and look to pass out throughout the match, yet he managed to make it out to the planned finished. Despite the match was put to have Roman win, Joe and everyone else thought Michael should've won the match with his performance alone.

Soon, Michael had to be helped by Mercedes, Tamina, and Trinity as it was clear he was going to pass out, and he did just as he entered through the curtain. Luckily, he was okay, just very tired and worn down from going through a Five Star Match and a 4 Star Match with Daniel and Roman.

Soon, they see Paul and Stephanie's van arriving and they come out. They opened the back passenger door and Michael comes out. His hair was disheveled, he was wearing clothes he wore at the last minute and it looked ragged while wearing sunglasses.

Paul: Gently, Mike.

Michael nods as he steps on the floor and slowly walks, though was shown he was limping a bit. He grunts before mustering the pain of the soreness and approaches the others. He sees them and gives a tired yet cheerful smile.

Michael: Hey, guys. Good mornin-

Ashley (Charlotte) immediately ran to him and hugs him, nearly causing Michael fall. If that was enough, Mercedes, Rebecca, and a visiting Pamela (Bayley) ran and hugged him too. The sudden hug made Michael drop his glasses, revealing his tired eyes he partially closes them due to the brightness.

Michael: Jesus. I'm okay, girls.

Rebecca: You're kiddin? You passed out in front of us last night.

Mercedes: Everyone was worried.

Ashley: Don't scare us like that, okay?

Pamela: The last thing we need is seeing you collapsing.

Michael: *sighs* Sorry. I promise not to worry you guys again. Just lessen the hug, okay? I'm about to pass out again.

They quickly release him as they help him sit on a chair and Michael sighs. Soon, Joe approaches him.

Joe: It's weird seeing you like this, Mike. You don't usually appear this tired, but what can I say? You went through two matches in one night.

Michael: Yeah. I haven't felt this tired since my match with Lita.

Paul: You're getting older, son. Back then, you had a lot of energy because you were a kid. But now that you're becoming an adult, it's gonna slow you down.

Michael: Yeah. Guess I won't do two matches in one night again. Specifically two one on one. I could do one on one and tag team matches.

Stephanie: Sounds about right. Do you plan on appearing tonight?

Michael: I mean, yeah. I won't have a match, though. Just a segment and that's it.

Paul: Good. We were planning on that, anyway. Just get yourself some rest and do some exercises to remove the soften the soreness.

Michael nods as his parents leave to prepare the show.

Glenn: That was crazy out there, Mike. You really pulled out all the stops in those matches.

Michael: Thanks, Glenn. *gets a energy drink from Mercedes and drinks it* Honestly, I felt like I was back in 06 in that match with Lita. I was tired, in pain, but yet I still managed to go through it without any problems. Last night with Joe felt like that.

Joe: And you did great, man. *pats him on the shoulder* I was worried when I saw you stumble and nearly falling into unconsciousness. Yet you still stood up and finished the match as planned. And that match was one of best I had.

Jon: Indeed. You literally put over Joe when you're nearly out.

Michael smiles as he stretches out and finishes the energy drink. Soon, Kevin Steen spoke.

Kevin: So what next? Continue as US Champ? With these matches, you're bound to have a longer reign.

Michael: Yeah. But, we'll see. Dad told me there's some big plans for me, but who knows what they'll be. I'll just go with the flow. But...I got something in mind later on.

Everyone is intrigued as Michael looks at Pam and winks, as she was confused by this.

*RAW, November 23, 2015*

Raw begins with Roman Reigns appearing with the World Heavyweight Championship. He, however, began to show respect to Michael, the man that had two Championship Matches last night pulled through, despite his body slowing down due to fatigue.

He spoke about how his family, the Anoa'i's came to love Michael as they're own. Michael was always there when they need some advice or someone to speak to, and even helped in the younger generation's careers, either wrestling or any other sport.

That is why he's a honorary member and will always be seen as a brother, cousin, son, nephew, and uncle to their family. And after last night, Roman's appreciation for Michael grew even more.

The crowd cheered at that. Suddenly, Stephanie and Triple H arrived and started to praise Roman and then attempt to have him be their top guy since Seth is gone due to injury. Roman see their fasad, and refused.

He then spoke about how they're not acknowledging their son's achievements and hard work, stating that, even though he love Michael, they don't love what he does for the Company and to the fans.

He spoke about how as a young kid, in first appearance, Michael established himself as someone who is no afraid to stand against those older than him. His debut against Vince, Stephanie, and Linda to defend Jim Ross showed the dynamic they try to hide for years:

They're afraid of Michael. And still are to this day.

He spoke about how they should be proud of their son, who at an early age, faced controversy because of them, and yet became the most beloved person backstage and no one will say a bad thing a Michael, even if they had bad blood with them.

Triple H got angry and denies not being proud of Michael. He's proud he's a Champion, he's proud to be the youngest US Champion, he's proud that so many people around the world love him for his charities, appearances, and giving support to everyone.

But, he doesn't like how Michael is managing his career. He's the complete opposite of Seth Rollins, relying on himself without them to help. He's makes sure their plans were foiled and stop them from doing what they please because of his morals and just wanting to be petty.

Roman calls him out, as that is the main thing why Michael is beloved. He puts in the work. He doesn't need his family's support, taking a shot at Triple H's Reign of Terror as World Heavyweight, and how Michael's a person that can never the buried, and will bury the person who tries to do that.

Then...

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

The crowd pops as everyone turns to the stage. Soon, Michael comes out and the crowd was happy to see him after going through two matches and the news of him passing out.

His hair looks messy but, he's able to walk smoothly. He enters the ring and poses with his US Title up. He steps down as he asks for a mic. His theme fades as he looks around with a smile.

The crowd cheers for him as he grins. He goes to speak, but was cut off by the amount of cheers from the WWE Universe. Michael laughs as he lets them cheer and chant his name.

They started chanting "You're a Fighter!" as it made him smile. This gives him flashback to the night after Cyber Sunday as he planned to leave WWE. Now, he's here to stay and the crowd still loved him.

Soon, they died down as Michael began to speak.

Michael: Man...what a night it has been at Survivor Series.

The crowd cheers as Roman smiles.

Michael: I had two great matches with the best in the business, and I managed to stay in the game despite having to go through a lot in getting tired and nearly collapsing in the ring. However, it's something I will never do again, as it was risky for me to do that for myself and to Joe, and I apologize for scaring you guys last night and getting worried.

The crowd gave a cheer and an aww as they chanted "Don't say sorry!" as Michael smiled. Roman was surprised that Michael said his real name, but understood as what he said was true.

Roman: They're right, Mike. You shouldn't apologize for that. They're just more amazed at inspired by you going through our match and still be the winner despite me winning.

The crowd cheers in agreement.

Michael: Thanks, Roman. *looks at his parents* Oh forgot you're even here.

The crowd laughed that he didn't acknowledge his parents.

Michael: Now... to be fair... I would be upset that my son wouldn't accept any help in his career...but... people who latched onto the aid of a parent wouldn't be successful.

The crowd oohs and cheered as Triple H stares at his son with seriousness.

Michael: So... mom and dad... *unhooks his US Title and holds it up* I'm proud to carry this thing a beauty as my first Championship and had some amazing matches. Like No-B+ Player, Daniel Bryan.

The crowd cheers in agreement.

Michael: And I pulled every single adrenaline rush in my body to face Roman for the World Heavyweight Championship. Even if I wasn't 100%, I managed to put Roman through the wringer.

The crowd cheers as Roman nods.

Michael: So... I've been doing very well on my own since I returned. While you were cuddling Seth Rollins while destroying the Authority slowly, I've had the best US Title Run, facing several Superstars at the main event of each RAW, giving more attention to this overlooked title than the World Title itself.

The crowd cheers in agreement as both Steph and Hunter were having none of this.

Hunter: Are you done-

Michael: No, I am not done. And if you speak over me again, I will make what I did to you at Mania a morsel.

The crowd oohs as Michael pulls out his glasses and smirks.

Michael: So... I got an announcement to make. As you know, I am not 100% tonight and cannot compete tonight so...

The crowd boos in disappointment as Michael nods to them.

Michael: Yeah, I know. Excuse the fact that I am not 9 years old and gonna be in my 20s. 2006 me would whip my ass, no doubt.

The crowd laughs as Michael chuckles.

Michael: But that's not the announcement. So...I want to be a surprise, so I'm gonna be off Raw to do some Michael stuff.

The crowd then booed loudly as they were upset Michael's leaving.

Michael: Woah, woah. Chill, chill. Ladies, chill...don't know why I said ladies as there's men here to, unless I'll calling them ladies as a insult to the guys in the arena, but let's no go there.

The crowd then laughed as Roman tries to not break character. Even Hunter and Steph cracked a smile and a chuckle. Michael wanted to lighten the mood in situations like this.

Michael: Listen...I'm not leaving like I did years ago. Just...trust me. Okay. It's a surprise I've been planning and figured some new environment would advance my career. Plus... It would be cool to have great matches. I love the main roster... but it gets repetitive facing the same guy every night. So...this is something interesting.

The crowd acknowledged that as Michael nods.

Michael: So...I'll be off. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and see you on January.

The crowd cheered as Michael shook hands with Roman and hugged him. He then goes to parents and gave a nod and hugged him. Soon, he walks out of the ring as his theme plays. Now, everyone is wondering what are his plans for December.

*much later*

NXT
November 25, 2015

NXT begins as the show is coming closer to Takeover: London as the crowd is excited for tonight's show. The contract signing between Samoa Joe and NXT Champion Finn Balor, Bayley Vs. Eva Marie with Nia Jax at her side, and the news that Sami Zayn is coming back after his injury and attack from Kevin Owens and a special new member of the roster and he'll face Apollo Crews.

Soon, Apollo is ready for him match as the crowd are waiting for this new wrestler to appear...Soon...

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

The crowd:

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Corey: What?!

Rick: No way?!

Bryon: He's here?! On NXT?!

Apollo was shocked to see this as Michael appears and poses with his US Championship as he makes his NXT debut. People notice he's wearing a white unbuttoned shirt with details and black wrestling pants.

Rick: He's here!

Byron: Michael's here on NXT!

Corey: What a surprise! The United States Champion is here on NXT!

The crowd cheers as Apollo was amazed to see the Most Popular Superstar in WWE in NXT.

Soon, Michael makes his way to the ring as he gives high fives and share selfies with the people of Florida. He enters the ring as he nods at Crews before climbing up the top rope and poses with his Title. The crowd cheers as Michael soon climbs down and turns to Apollo.

His theme fades but the crowd started chanting "Welcome Michael!" as he nods and smiles. He asks for a mic and is given one.

Michael: I told y'all I'll be given a surprise.

The crowd cheered as Michael laughs.

Michael: I've been watching NXT for years, from when it was a stupid reality show where we hear Michael Cole gushing over Miz or the Anonymous RAW GM to a show that treats their wrestlers with respect and dignity, something the late great Hall of Famer, Dusty Rhodes, valued for years.

The crowd cheered as Michael gives a prayer to the American Dream as he looks up, showing how much he misses Dusty.

Michael: Now...as I said on RAW... I'll be here on NXT as a temporary member to its roster until January...so I can open up challenges for my United States Championship. Doesn't matter what people will say, I'm open to competition, and eager to show how I can fit in to the amazing talents here. You'll be damn sure I'll learn more here before I go back to RAW.

The crowd cheers loudly as Apollo nods.

Michael: Now...*looks at Apollo* Since you're here, Apollo, would you accept my challenge?

The crowd as they chanted for Apollo gives a nod, getting a pop. Michael smiles as he passes his title to the Ref and takes off his coat and gets ready for the match. The ref shows the title to Crews before raising it in front of the NXT crowd then passes it the timekeeper.

This will be the first time a Main Roster Title will be defended in a show like NXT, and the crowd is loving it.

The referee signals for the bell and the match begins.

How's the chapter?

What do you think of Michael joining NXT?

Yes, Cliffhanger for next chapter.
