Alice Gaster vs Lexi Morgan - Last Woman Standing!

[Vc0m]

With a combo of a hook across her jaw and a suplex dazing her, Lexi would take her time before her next attack on Alice, as she dragged her towards a corner, laying her next to the metal part of the post. For a second, Alice was confused why Lexi wasn't attacking... until she was grabbed by her arm and leg, with the post digging into her back as she was stretched across it!

"GYAAAAAAAAAAGH!!! FUCK!"

Alice screamed in agony as Lexi used her strength to work over Alice's back with the help of the corner post!

[Sigma Morgan]

Lexi remained quite with an expressionless look on her face as Alice's screams of agony filled her ears, she felt bad about doing something like this but she was going to have to do things like this in order to win. Letting up for a second Lexi then game both of her opponents limbs another pull once again stretching the woman against the post but even harder. Maintaining this for a few moments Lexi then let up and attempted to drag her opponent out of the ring and onto the ring floor. "Sorry" Lexi said quietly before reaching down and attempting to force Alice to her feet.

[Vc0m]

"MGGGGGGGGH!" Alice let out, as Lexi continued to viciously stretch the smaller woman against the post. Alice could tell that, while not a Heavyweight, Lexi had a lot of power in her arms. She was almost folding her into an O shape!

Alice would receive a momentary break before the Cowgirl pulled on her limbs again. Once finished, she finally let the Hardcore Brit out of the ring, with Alice falling to the ground, holding her hurting spine...as she heard a quiet apology from her rival.

"Heh... don't worry about it... or anything you'd do in the match", Alice would whisper back as she rose, and, once up, would try and lift her foot upwards to kick it into Lexi's gut!

If her foe doubled over, Alice would grab her head under her arm, before telling her: "No hard feelings!", before jumping to land on her back, wincing as it still hurt from the Cowgirl's stretch, but making sure Lexi got the worst of the fall with the DDT!

Lexi smiled slightly hearing Alice's response as well as dropping her guard slightly, a costly mistake as Alice was quick to kick the Texan in the gut on her way buck up to her feet, forcing the air from her lungs and causing Lexi to double over. Lexi then felt her opponent wrapping her arm around her head before feeling her head spiked into the unforgiving with a DDT!

Lexi rolled over onto her back in a daze staring up at the arena lights thinking about her opponent's remark before the move, so far for a last woman standing match it had been respectful, if not friendly oddly enough. Lexi then rolled onto her knee's trying to get up slowly.

[Vc0m]

The match was definitely friendly, though Alice knew that the brutality would come at some point. When she was younger, she was a menace. Quick to jump to the extremes, both literally and figuratively, damning the pain her body could experience. Turning 25, and especially after her match against Nerissa at APEX, made her realize that she didn't have finite amount of time in her career, especially not with her style of wrestling. So if there was an option to keep things steady, at least early on, the Hardcore Brit would take it.

Alice would rise quickly after the DDT, albeit still holding her hurting back, while Lexi rose up to a knee, slowly getting up. As Lexi got up, Alice would quickly turn, and try to launch her foot into her rival's jaw for a hard Superkick!

[Sigma Morgan]

This was not Lexi's first hardcore type of match, far from it, but she knew keeping things steady early on would only help her considering how much pain her and Alice were likely going to put each other through later. Lexi rested for a second when she got to a knee, a mistake that was about to prove costly as it just made her an easy target as Alice gave her a hard to the jaw causing her to cry out and fall to the floor. Lexi was left in a daze as she slowly crawled towards the steel steps and climbed slightly resting her head a top of them.

[Vc0m]

As Lexi crawled over onto the steel steps, trying to get herself up, Alice's mind flashed with a violent idea...and ultimately, as much as she liked Lexi, this was a hardcore match. Both of them knew the risks of signing up for this match, and what she had in mind wouldn't kill the cowgirl...

It would just really really hurt.

Alice would climb the ring apron, close to where Lexi tried to get up, before jumping upwards, aiming her foot for the cowgirl's head to stomp it down onto the steel steps!

[Sigma Morgan]

Lexi rested her head on top of the steel steps for a moment, a DDT was already enough to leave someone reeling, let alone one outside of the ring. Her opponent didn't seem to remain idle though deciding to capitalize on the Texan's current position. Lexi was slowly about to get to her feet right when Alice jumped off the ring apron and drove Lexi's head into the steel steps with her foot. "AH!" Lexi let out a pained cry as she slumped against the steps stunned burying her face in one of her arms.

[Vc0m]

Alice jumped, driving her foot atop Lexi's skull, crashing it against the steel steps, and likely giving her rival a concussion in the process. The Pale Rider hopped off the steel steps, referee looking on worried as Alice nodded towards the official in zebra striped shirt to give the cowgirl her count:

"No shame in quitting, you know...", Alice said with a smirk, as the ref lifted her arm into the air with a single raised finger on her hand:

"ONE!!!"

[Sigma Morgan]

Lexi's vision was a blur and it felt like she had a raging headache in the wake of her head being drilled into the steel steps by her opponents foot. Everything Lexi was feeling were clearly symptoms of a concussion, the referee sounding so drowned out as they counted.

TWO

THREE

Lexi glanced up at the crowd, the arena's lights seeming so incredibly bright to the point it was unbearable. Lexi shook her head from side to side trying to work through a now obvious concussion. Hearing the referee's count his five Lexi began to rise to her feet, using the steel steps for help and breaking the referee's count at six. Lexi then turned to face her opponent, her eyes a bit glazy and her legs shaky. "It's... going to take a lot more than that Alice. Lexi said getting into a weak fighting stance, trying to ready and will herself to continue.
