==========================

It's the first Smackdown after the Rumble and Logan's going to be getting a new challenger, no it's not Cody, not yet anyway, it's already confirmed with the guys in the back that Cody Rhodes will be at Wrestlemania 40 but it's still up in the air about who the Champion will be, so far, Logan's able to keep going, sure it's getting harder and harder and his gym sessions are getting smaller and smaller but this is his job, it's what he loves to do, also the WWE title is getting a remodel tonight, Logan's spent the last few weeks working with Hunter and the others, under the books, to design a brand new Undisputed title and they think they have it.

Nick: Ladies and gentleman, welcome to Friday Night Smackdown!

The crowd in Birmingham Alabama cheered for the General Manger of Friday Night Smackdown as the Englishman stood in the middle of the ring, a podium in the centre with it covered by a red cloth, the news broke out earlier in the week that there'd be a new title being unveiled this Friday but who's it is, that's unknow, a lot of people think it's a new Tag title for the blue brand since the Judgement Day don't come over here no more.

Nick: This past Sunday, we witnessed History being made, not only did someone win from the Number 1 Entrant inside the Royal Rumble... We also saw a returning Superstar...

Nick's talking about what Logan did on Sunday, if the fans knew how much that shit actually hurt him then they might have cheered a little more for that bit then they did, Alexis' return got a nice new pop, apparently the fans missed her, who'd have thought, Logan just hopes they know that Alexis isn't back to get into the ring, at least not for a match wise.

Nick: ... Our Undisputed WWE Champion walked into the 30-Man Royal Rumble to defend his title. Against all the odds he walked out as Champion too, which is why...

Nick walked towards the podium, placing his hand on top as the camera got the money shot, still the title is covered but their building suspense, building tension for what the new title will look like for the Undisputed WWE Champion, it's clear that's who it's for but fear not, the tag titles will be getting a new look very soon.

Nick: ... We have a very special gift for him. So, if the WWE Undisputed Champion would like to grace us with his presents...

Nick waited as did the rest of the fans, Logan put in a great performance, he broke the record for the longest time spent in a Men's Royal Rumble and got the most eliminations with 15 in total, he eliminated half the competitors himself, no man has ever done that before and that's what Hunter wanted for this guy...

... Everyone expected just Alexis to come out to this wild reaction, Alexis was a little overwhelmed but Logan figured screw it, her music is just as good as his, so they walked out together, hand in hand looking their absolute best...

... Logan walked out with Alexis holding his left hand and the title in his right, the crowd aren't too happy with him here for the way he won the Rumble, they blame him for Alexis distracting Blake and for Logan tossing Cody out, everyone wants to see Cody complete the dream, just not yet, he's going to have to wait his turn, which is going to be Wrestlemania 40 in Philadelphia.

It was nice as well seeing them both walking to the ring with Alexis' music, most the time the women come's out and her music will get cut by the main entrants but not this time, even as they walked down, waving and smiling like their king and queen, which they are of course, even Alexis stopped at a little girl who has her merch on, Logan smiled as she hugged the girl and took a quick photo, they didn't have long but they aren't on a timer either, Logan walked on a little, climbing up the steps and onto the apron, their he waited for Alexis to do the same before he pulled the ropes, making it easier for her to climb in, Logan wanted to show off a little though so he handed Alexis the title before clearing the ropes while using the top as leverage.

Alexis rolled her eyes a little as Logan just shrugged, Logan put his arm around Alexis while she took this all in, it's the first time she's officially been in a WWE ring since the 2023 Royal Rumble, it's been a great year but also a long one, one that has lead them to this moment.

Nick: First off congratulations, not only on retaining your title but also breaking the record for most Eliminations in a Royal Rumble match, of course not to mention the longest time spent in a Rumble match...

Logan smiled with honest pride, he knows that was his last Royal Rumble and the fact people are calling it the greatest Rumble ever, he can live with that, he doesn't think it is, there are at least 5 Rumbles out there that are better but he's going to take the compliment and smile as Alexis clapped with the crowd's cheers.

Nick: ... So with this all being said, as a token of all out gratitude for what you've accomplished since your return, we'd like to present you with this. A brand new title...

Logan played like he had no idea this was going to happen but he did, the Paul Leveque Era is starting soon and that mean's new titles and new Champions, this starting tonight, Paul wants Logan to at least hold the belt he helped design which is why their presenting it to him early, the other belts will get a re model later, so not wanting to waist even more time then they already have, Logan walked to the podium, Alexis still has the old belt but this one is going to be brand new...

... Logan pulled off the cloth as the camera man got the money shot again, Logan and the others wanted to bring an old school while also modern twist to the belt, the Golden Eagle making a return as well as the Modern WWE logo sat in the centre of the belt, giving the Eagle a nice perch to nestle on, Logan smiled as when the crowd cheered, even his side plates looked great on it, he was more happy that the fans seemed to love it just as much as he does while lifting the belt onto his right shoulder.

Logan took the mic from Nick about to address the Universe only before he could, someone decided to ruin this moment, Logan sighed as he looked down, Alexis moved to the other side of the ring and the podium was taken out the ring all while the focus is on the Entrance way waiting for someone to come out...

... Duncan walked out the curtain looking a little pissed off, you can understand why, imagine getting number 30 in the Royal Rumble, the only man left in the ring is number 1 and all you have to do is put him over the top rope and he would be the Undisputed WWE Champion, then for you to lose, it's not a fun thing to experience.

Duncan: Forgive my language but this right here. This is bullshit!

His music cut out as he continued to march to the ring, Alexis now behind Logan as he has the new Undisputed title over his shoulder, the other one was taken away with the podium while Nick Aldis remained in the ring, his job isn't quite done for today, Duncan is nowhere near done, since he get's to talk a little more shit.

Duncan: You and I both know, if she didn't get involved. I'd be standing there with that belt, not you.

Logan sighed as he shrugged the title more onto his shoulder, Alexis just smiled while Duncan got into the ring, the two have been friends for years but between the ropes, their enemies, nothing more and nothing less, Logan's been more successful then Duncan in his shorter time in the WWE, that's what all the rivalry started between them, Duncan wasn't happy Logan pretty much went straight to the top when he arrived, since then, he's been trying to take what Logan has, only Logan always finds a way to best the bigger Superstar.

Logan: Really? That's your excuse? Did I force you to lose focus? No. Did I tell you to make googly eyes at my fiancé? No... Then again, I don't blame you.

Logan looked to Alexis with a wink making her smile, he's not scripted so neither Alexis or Duncan know what he's going to say, he has a point though, no one forced Duncan to get distracted by Alexis coming out at the Royal Rumble, that was his doing and no one else's, that's the point Logan's making right now as the crowd loved seeing Alexis and Logan in the ring together, even with their long relationship, this is the first time they've actually been in the ring together, other then at house shows and what not.

Logan: So how about this, stop blaming others for your short comings and stand here, in front of YOUR Undisputed WWE Champion, pay me the respect I deserve for making you my bitch then beg me for another chance at this...

Logan dropped the mic, he's done, he didn't need to do more, he always seems to do his best work with Duncan and that was a good one, short, sweet, straight to the point, it made things worse for Duncan though when he called himself his Undisputed WWE Champion and hoisted the belt above them both, rubbing salt into the wounds that Logan won at the Rumble, not him, Alexis smiled as she sat back on the ropes, leaning while watching her soon to be husband cook.

Duncan: Or how about I slap you and take that title off your knocked out body?

Logan smirked as the two stepped toe to toe, Duncan's 5 inches taller then Logan but yet, you didn't think Logan was the weak link out of the two, Logan's beaten Duncan before and Duncan has some revenge to take, Logan's the reason he was injured in the first place, sure it was scripted so he and Pam could get married but the story is, Logan cost Duncan months of his career and while Duncan was out injured, Logan beat Roman Reigns for the Undisputed title.

Nick: Not here and not now. Not yet...

Nick push his arm between the two as both were shouting trash at each other, he managed to get them to step back on the other just enough so Nick can now be seen between them, his right arm keeping them apart as his left hand held the mic to his face, Alexis still watched and waited while Logan turned to her, his left hand going to her waist as he whispered into her ear.

Logan: You know how hot you are right now?

Alexis smiled as he stepped away from her, she heard him, no one else did and that's all she cares about, without being able to respond, she just looked him up and down as he turned back to the other two in the ring, this setting up a big part of the story going forward and leading into Wrestlemania 40.

Nick: ... As of right now, Logan doesn't have a challenger for the Undisputed Championship but there are others that want a shot, so tonight there will be a Fatal Four-Way between Duncan, Kevin Owens, LA Knight and Austin Theory...

The crowed cheered as Duncan smiled, he feels confident about that match later tonight, his arms feeling great and he's feeling great, the others guys won't stand a chance, Logan however didn't show any sing of worry or confidence, it's what he does best, of course he has a preference and it would be Theory, Logan's beaten Theory before and LA Knight but he technically has unfinished business with them all.

Nick: ... Next Week will be the same, feature "The Viper" Randy Orton, "The Phenomenal One" AJ Styles, Bobby Lashley and Karrion Kross. The Winners of both will face each other for the right to challenge, Logan at Elimination Chamber for the Undisputed WWE Championship.

Logan now did smile, he's confident he can beat al of those names, he's never faced Randy Orton, he's never faced Bobby Lashley, or even Karrion Kross, he has however faced the others and he's beaten them all, so the odds are looking good for him as he stepped back closer to Alexis who put her arm around his waist.

Nick: Now you have a match to get ready for.

It's the Main Event so they have a few hours to kill, Duncan nodded to Nick and then gave Logan one more death glare, however, Logan just gave him a small wave "Bye" while he climbed out the ring, Logan and Alexis would leave later but not just yet as Duncan continued to promise he'll be the one to face Logan in Perth for the WWE Undisputed Championship, so while Duncan has a match tonight, Alexis was wondering what they could get up to in the mean time together, maybe with others...
