Let’s say you’re Drake Maverick. Your wedding day went down in flames after R-Truth relieved you of the 24/7 Championship; your marriage similarly immolated until you accepted your wife’s offer to go on a honeymoon (over the protests of EC3, one might add); and now you’re faced with the ultimate choice: Your bride or the “love of your life.” What do you do? If you’re Drake, you try to do both, and you succeed.
The 205 Live General Manager brought his bride, Renee, to Raw as a stopover before their trip that seemed as though it would be a thinly-veiled, last-ditch effort to win back the title. When Renee told Drake he’d have to choose between her or the championship, Truth was more than happy to rub salt in the wound by taunting Maverick with his continued reign. To his credit, Maverick stood strong, even refusing to budge from his ringside seat when the usual suspects chased Truth through a planned No Way Jose vs. Cesaro match that never materialized thanks to the shenanigans. But in Raw’s waning moments, Drake made his move, hitting Truth in the back with a suitcase and pinning him in the backstage area to win the title before getting out of dodge with his wife, who was too stunned to register everything that had just happened. Sometimes, you really can have it all.
