Marlee Jackson vs Lu Sahgurl

[arktriumph]

With Marlee's full weight behind the elbow drop, the unfortunate Lu was plastered flat into the canvas, her frame jolting briefly before she slumped in a limp heap, flat on her front. Marlee pushed up onto her knees, huffing a breath and sweeping stray loops of hair back behind her ears as she looked down on Lu.

"Alright, Lu Lul, let's just get this round over with, shall we?" she muttered, a little annoyed by the resistance Lu had attempted to put up, even though it was pretty clear to all that she didn't stand a chance against the New Zealander.

Not wasting more time, Marlee rolled the other wrestler onto her back draped herself across the lightweight, her bust pressing down heavily on Lu's chest to pin her in place while she hooked one of Lu's legs up tight against her body. The ref slithered into place and started the count!

"ONE!"

"TWO!"

...

[Kreydos]

With Lu's back shrieking in agony, she did nothing except wince when Marlee went for the pin. Lucy got flipped onto her back before she felt the crushing weight of her heavier opponent squash her upper body down to the ground. Shaking her head, she tried to buck her hips for a kick out but to no avail. Instead, her legs just weakly kicked about randomly. As such, the pin went by virtually uncontested.

"Three!"
The ref finished the three count, giving the second fall of the match to Marlee. "No..." Lu whimpered in a low tone. Ceasing her struggles, her legs fell listlessly to the canvas while she awaited for the other woman to get up. From there, she would spend a short moment lying down recovering.

[arktriumph]

Unsurprisingly given the state Lu was in, Marlee secured the pinfall, and her second point of the match without much trouble. The exhausted lightweight made only token struggles as the curvy Kiwi pinned her down for the 3-count.

"And that's 2-0!" Marlee chirped brightly as she pushed herself up off of Lu with a smirk. Despite the resistance from her opponent, Marlee was feeling good. One more fall was all it would take to clock up the much needed win she was chasing. Standing and stepping back to her corner, she adjusted her tight singlet and tugged her gloves and boots up tighter, watching and waiting for Lu to gather what strength she had left for the last fall.

[Kreydos]

Lu couldn't help gnashing her teeth as she laid flat on her back, staring up at the lights. Such a sight and situation was becoming increasingly familiar to her, much to her chagrin. Her hands balled into fist, her heart ablaze with a surge of determination. She peeled herself off the canvas and briskly worked her way back onto her feet. It didn't even register to her how quickly albeit unsteadily she recovered.

Taking advantage of this much appreciated second wind, she threw caution to the mind and broke into a sprint the moment the bell for the third round rung. She bounded across the ring before she leapt into the air at Marlee's direction, fist poised to strike. Mustering all of her newfound strength, Lucy fired a strong hook at her opponent's face in mid-air for a superman punch.

[arktriumph]

Marlee watched and waited patiently, keeping a wary eye on Lu as the lightweight picked herself up off the canvas with surprising quickness. Lu might have been 2-0 down, but if the match had taught her anything it was to not write the plucky lightweight off until the final bell was rung. The curvy Kiwi kept a wary eye on her opponent, easing down into her fighting stance as the bell to begin the third round rang out across the ring.

And in an instant Lu was charging towards her.

Marlee's caution once more proved to be a saving grace as she was able to react in time to the lightweight's sudden charge, ducking beneath the wild flying punch aimed at her face. Using Lu's waist as an anchor, Marlee attempted to neatly swing herself around behind the lightweight, using Lu's momentum against her. If she managed to get into position she would instantly snake both arms up around Lu's head in a sleeper hold, yanking her foe backwards up against her and squeezing tight.

"Easy there, Lu Lu," Marlee said through gritted teeth as she locked in the hold. "I think you've been in this ring long enough for one day!"

[Kreydos]

Lu's superman punch struck nothing but air. Before she knew it, her opponent slipped behind her and cleanly cinched in a sleeper hold. "Grk!.." She gasped in abject horror of what just transpired, her eyes widening as Marlee's suffocating embraced tightened. "N-no... C-come on..." Somehow, Lucy managed to speak some choked words but that did little to improve her situation. Thinking quickly, she grabbed her right hand with her other hand and hammered away at her captor's ribs via repeated side elbows, hoping to cause her to loosen her hold.

[arktriumph]

Marlee's swift counter worked like a charm as she neatly sidestepped the vicious punch aimed at her head, and slipped around behind Lu, yanking her into the sleeper hold. With the smaller woman stuck tight, Marlee cranked up the pressure.

"Agh, hey! Jeez, girl give it up!" she blurted in annoyance as a couple of Lu's wild strikes at her ribs connected, not hard enough to dislodge the New Zealander's hold, but enough to annoy her.

Scowling, Marlee wasn't about to give the tenacious lightweight any more chances to sneak back into this match. Gritting her teeth, she squeezed the sleeper as hard as she could, at the same time leaning backwards in an attempt to heave Lu clean off the canvas and leave her draped over Marlee's body, trapped in the sleeper hold with nowhere to go.

"Go. To. Sleep." she ordered, officially at the end of her tether with Lu's resistance!

[Kreydos]

"N-nrglk... n-never!" Lu snarled defiantly, although her grimacing expression turning more and more desperate by the second. Unfortunately, Marlee retaliated promptly; she clenched the chokehold tighter and leaned back, lifting Lucy's feet up off the floor. "Grk?! Grklg..." With panicked gurgles, she ceased throwing elbows and grasped onto her opponent's arms.

At the same time, her legs kicked about wildly in an effort to loosen Marlee's vice grip. Tears welled up in the corners of Lu's eyes while her cheeks blushed and her chest heaved heavy breaths. As much as she hated it, she unwillingly complied with the soon-to-be victorious heavyweight's request. Over the course of the sleeperhold, the trapped lightweight's vision blurred and her body grew heavy.

Slowly but surely, her frantic struggles grounded to a halt until she was little more than a limp ragdoll hanging in Marlee's arms. Even then, Lu vainly hung onto consciousness, her eyes fluttering and her mouth dangling open. "Nrlg... nhhhh..." Soon enough, she let out a defeated sigh as her eyes finally drifted shut and she fell asleep in her foe's grasp.

[arktriumph]

Marlee frowned, more out of annoyance than actual worry as Lu continued to struggle. Heaving the lightweight back off her feet seemed to take the fight out of her though as Lu was left clawing at Marlee's arms, her legs flapping about aimlessly with nothing to gain purchase on. Rolling her eyes, Marlee clung on tight, and sure enough the effects of the sleeper soon took hold.

Little by little Lu's struggles lessened until eventually the plucky lightweight sagged limp in Marlee's grip, her body draped over the front of the curvy Kiwi and on display for all the cameras to capture. A final sigh slipped from Lu's lips, signalling her descent into unconsciousness.

"About time," Marlee muttered, shaking her head and releasing the hold, allowing Lu's body to crumple into a heap on the floor. She beckoned the referee to come and confirm what she already knew.

Sure enough, three times Lu's arm flopped limp to the canvas, confirming the third and final fall in Marlee's 3-0 wipe of the other woman. Puffing out her chest in triumph, she eased Lu's body onto her back and planted a boot on the side of her sleeping foe's face to cement her dominance, as the referee raised her hand in triumph.

"Better luck next time, Lu Lu," Marlee chided gently as she stepped off of the defeated opponent. "Maybe piuck on someone your own size."

And with that, with a much needed win under her belt, Marlee strutted triumphantly from the ring, cameras flashing and fans cheering, leaving Lu's unconscious form alone in the ring for the medical team to deal with!

WINNER: MARLEE JACKSON 3-0
