Maxine Rossi vs. E'isa [D]

[CaptainL]

Maxine had been leading the charge just a moment ago, laying into E'isa with a torrent of offense the Dominican could hardly keep up with - but when E'isa put up her knees, that was all she needed to turn the tide. When Maxine came crashing down on top of her, she landed right on top of those knees, and they drove the air right out of her lungs, causing her to sputter and gasp as she fell backward onto the canvas! Now, her head was spinning, and she let out a groan as she tried to shake herself out and adjust to the situation. Now, only time would tell if E'isa would take this opportunity to seize control.

Panting for breath, Maxine began to push herself back up, getting her hands against the canvas behind her and lifting herself to her feet. The first thing she noticed, raising an eyebrow curiously, was that E'isa wasn't pushing the momentum at all - she was staying back in the corner. It didn't take long, however, for Maxine to realize this was a testament to her success. She had left E'isa winded, preventing her from being able to make a recovery right away. Now, she could move in for the kill before she so much as had a chance to get back into the action!

"You snooze, you lose, hon..." Maxine teased, raising her hands and closing in on E'isa. If she could box her in the corner, she would be able to cut off her escape, and keep her right where she wanted her...

[XXVV]

E'isa finally getting some room to breathe would elect to hit the corner. Maxine had been in control following the Senton on the outside. E'isa was only able to play defense or try to, move after move to her back and constant attempts at smothering her to death. The pain she felt was unquestionable but the desire to win fueled her to keep going. The knees had left the Latina the opening to get some much-needed space from Maxine who wanted to continue her attempts to funnel E'isa's offense. Maxine was not in any condition to instantly get back up and pressure E'isa more. Sputtering and gasping, head spinning, trying to shake off landing onto the knees.

Another opportunity to get back into the match was present for E'isa. Now in the corner as Maxine would start to push herself back up. She'd noticed E'isa not pushing the momentum, to the contrary she was in the corner, looking as if she was trying to still catch her breath. Trying to regain her composure following the onslaught she'd just taken. Maxine realized she'd done more damage than she thought, leaving the Latina winded and needing time, not able to jump back into action immediately. Wanting to move in for the kill before E'isa could put the pieces back together and get back into the match.

Maxine would tease E'isa with words as she closed in. Looking to box her in the corner and cut her off, feeling like she still had the momentum. What she wouldn't realize was that E'isa did need to recover, but she had a plan in mind. Waiting for Maxine to try and push the momentum again, she'd wait for the right moment and then go for a move she didn't often pull out. But if there was ever a time for it, now was the time.

"patience.. patience.. pat.. NOW!"

Just as Maxine would look to be closing in, E'isa would grab the ropes, jumping up as she'd shoot her rear back using all the momentum her currently winded body could muster. Attempting to pop Maxine with a move she rarely used, the "Helmet Check".

Maxine hadn't quite fully recovered from the hard landing she had taken onto E'isa's knees. Even as she began to stalk toward the Latina, her shoulders were still slowly rising and falling as she drew the air back into her lungs. But that wouldn't stop her now - E'isa, she knew, was just as winded. She had to be, if she was shrinking back in the corner trying to stir herself back to her senses! The closer that Maxine drew, the more a wicked smile grew wider and wider across her face. Now, she had E'isa right where she needed her - and she wasn't going to let her slip through her fingers now!

At least, that was what she thought. Right at the last minute, E'isa would reveal she had another trick up her sleeve - when she hauled herself up onto the ropes, jumping off the mat and throwing her hips backward to nail Maxine in the face with a blow right to the head! It was such an unorthodox move, Maxine hadn't even seen it coming - but it was because of that that it was able to catch her off-guard! She fell back off her feet with a gasp, her legs kicking into the air as she dropped into a seated position and clutched her head. The crowd let out a cheer at the sight of such a cunning display from E'isa - the fact that she showed off her backside in doing so didn't hurt, of course!

[XXVV]

E'isa had been reeling for a bit now. Struggling to get herself back into the match, but now she had gotten back-to-back offense. The "Helmet Check" would connect and Maxine would gasp, caught off-guard, the move was something she wasn't expecting! Falling back as she fell with a gasp, legs kicking as she dropped into a seated position. Maxine clutched her head. E'isa would look back and see her move connect and feel like she was on the right track. The crowd backing the latina as it seemed she had a chance to flip the momentum again.

The move not only left Maxine reeling but got more fans in the crowd wanting to see more and more of her. A replay airing on the jumbotron as fans would see Maxine get popped with the rare showcase of E'isa's assets as a weapon? Liking the spectacle and unpredictability she continued to offer, never staying down, always fighting! The match was showcasing who she was to the fans and they loved what they saw so far! Excited to see what she'd do next, what she had up her sleeve. E'isa wanted to keep things going. Seeing an opening she'd elect to take advantage, feeling a bit better, able to catch her breath. Attempting to go for a sliding lariat on the seated, disorientated Maxine.

Maxine had been thrown completely for a loop. E'isa's offensive had hit her where she least expected it - not only had she struck when the former porn star had convinced herself her opponent would be vulnerable, and wide open for her tactics, she had done so in a way that Maxine could never have prepared for. And when Maxine had so convinced herself that she was invincible, that she had this match already won, she was even more alarmed when E'isa started fighting back! Before she had the chance to figure out what was happening to her, E'isa's hips were thrown backward into her face - and she, in turn, was thrown off balance, going down against the mat below!

The crowd began to cheer louder at the sight of E'isa making a hard-fought comeback, but she wasn't done yet! Maxine was still shaking herself out, gritting her teeth and hissing under her breath in frustration at how E'isa had outwitted her - but when she looked back up, she saw that the Latina was already on the move, charging straight at her! She let out a scream only seconds before E'isa came crashing into her, throwing her onto her back, as she went skidding a few inches backward - pushed down beneath E'isa's weight!

"Hell no-!" Maxine snapped - she wasn't about to go down without a fight! Even with E'isa on top of her, she would begin throwing punches, slaps, and elbows against her side to try and wear her down!

[XXVV]

Following the "Helmet Check" E'isa had gotten back into the match. The move threw Maxine off balance as she came crashing down. Those in attendance let themselves be heard as they'd cheer E'isa. She continued making a comeback after comeback, showcasing her resolve and pain tolerance. Not leaving Maxine time to breathe or get time to work out her situation. Coming in hot E'isa would come charging in! Maxine would let out a scream as the Latina came crashing into her, thrown on her back, and sent her skidding backward a bit. E'isa's weight pushed down onto Maxine's body, but to her surprise the lariat knocked her back but didn't shut her down.

Hearing a "Hell no-!" the Latina would look and see a flurry of punches and elbows flying upwards, taking a punch and slap to the side of the face. Snapping herself after the slap as she'd call back to Maxine.

"YOU.. BITCH!"

Responding with her own punches and slaps at the face of Maxine, a scuffle ensued as neither would stop throwing blows. The official looking to come in and try to separate them but finding little luck at first. But after a few seconds, they'd find luck pulling E'isa off with a warning for both if they disregarded the warnings next time. E'isa backed into the corner before looking to rush back to the middle and attempt a big boot to the face of Maxine!

[CaptainL]

Maxine had had her time to shine. She'd had plenty of opportunity to dominate E'isa and lord over her in the ring - but now, E'isa was about to strike back with a vengeance. Maxine couldn't hope to catch her in time before the Latina threw herself down on top of her, tackling her to her back beneath the sheer oncoming momentum of her charge! It was almost enough to drive the air out of Maxine's lungs as E'isa came down on her - but Maxine wasn't about to concede dominance that easily, and she was still going to put up a fight!

Looking to get a few blows in just to show E'isa she wouldn't crumple that easily, Maxine began to throw a volley of strikes and slaps back at her opponent. But for every hit Maxine landed, E'isa struck back with one of her own! The sounds of groans, screams, and the slap of skin against skin resounded as the two women descended into a wild brawl in the center of the mat. When E'isa threw a slap across Maxine's face, she would only look her dead in the eyes with a deathly scowl before grabbing for her hair with one hand and throwing a fist square at her face with the other. No one was going to show her that sort of disrespect on her watch!

Even as the referee tried to pull them apart, the two women barely paid any attention to it, consumed with bloodlust! Their deadlock would only be broken when E'isa was pulled away, causing Maxine to fall forward onto her knees, where she panted and groaned, rubbing at her face. Her head was pounding, and she hissed under her breath. When she looked up, though, she could see E'isa taking off toward her in a charge - and she knew she had to be ready!

At the last second, Maxine would look to swerve out of the way, trying to dodge E'isa's incoming kick so that her foot would only hit the air! If that worked, she'd grab for E'isa's outstretched leg and push up on it, attempting to force her center of balance backward so that E'isa would slip and fall onto her back. From there, Maxine would fall forward on top of her, hooking that leg - she was hoping she could roll into a pin before E'isa knew what had hit her!

[XXVV]

Control was an addicting feeling that E'isa couldn't get enough of. She wanted to feel the power of being in control and any second out of control felt off and didn't feel right to her. She wanted to always have control and always hold the momentum. Yet Maxine for a chunk of the match had taken it from her! Maxine had her moments in this match and showcased who she was in the ring. Her dynamic offense and strong, athletic physique gave her a lot of momentum and opportunity in the match. But E'isa after taking so much offense in the last couple minutes would look to get her payback.

The scuffle ensued as neither wanted to show weakness, E'isa replying to every strike she took and vice versa! A wild brawl would come from it and as E'isa landed a slap Maxine would reply with a hair grab and fist square in her lower jaw, a grunt coming from the Latina. But she wouldn't waver, replying back with her own punch to the nose of Maxine! The official looked to separate but had no luck, neither seemed bothered until E'isa who was on top would be pulled off. Maxine panting and groaned as she fell forward. Her head was pounding as was E'isa's, they'd both taken a handful of blows. E'isa was unhinged as she'd run back wanting to hit a boot clean on Maxine's jaw!

Before it would land though, at the last possible second, Maxine would catch E'isa off guard and swerve, getting a clean dodge off. Grabbing the Latina's outstretched leg and pushing upward on it, going for E'isa's center of balance. Caught in the heat of her anger, E'isa would slip and tumble back, Maxine falling on top as upon hooking the leg she'd find herself in a pinning position over her. E'isa rolled up into the pin, trying to wiggle out as Maxine made use of the leverage and held her down. E'isa struggling to get an ounce of momentum upwards to break the pin would get angry. The official coming down for the count, E'isa pinned down to the mat!

"ONE!"

"HEY! GET OFF ME, YOU.. RAT!"

Trying to build up any form of momentum as she tried to break the pin but still found no success.

"TWO!"

Panic set in as her back would still hurt and her breathing was still limited. Fans cheering for her to get up, wanting to see more out of her.

"COME ON!"

The referee came down looking for a final count, halfway down before E'isa would shoot up using her arms and back though limited to get enough upward movement to break the pin. Rolling onto her stomach afterward, reaching for her back as it still strained her, Maxine had done a number on her. Still in the match though, things were getting harder the longer the match went. Crawling to the ropes, wanting to get back to her feet and prevent more of Maxine's unpredictable offense.

[CaptainL]

Even after the two women were forcibly broken away from one another, Maxine wasn't going to let this slow her down. She still felt the lingering soreness in her face from E'isa's fists, and she still panted and groaned, her heart still racing from the excitement of the scuffle. But when her eyes met E'isa, they narrowed into a glare - Maxine knew that she wasn't going to let the Dominican get away with this. Sure enough, the moment E'isa lashed out with a kick, Maxine grabbed for it - and proceeded to throw her weight down on top of her foe as she shoved forward to roll E'isa to her back, looking to exploit the moment to go for a pin!

As the ref counted the one, and then the two, a satisfied smirk began to grow across Maxine's face. Finally, she thought, she had E'isa down, and she was only moments away from the end of the match - the moment that would proclaim once and for all who the better woman was! Just then, though, E'isa was able to prop her hands underneath her, and draw on enough force to yank her shoulders up from the ground, breaking the pin!

E'isa's fans let out a cheer, seeing her daring escape. Maxine, in turn, was thrown off of her opponent, going rolling to the side, where she rubbed at her shoulder. But she wasn't going to let this setback slow her down for long. As she looked back up, Maxine saw that E'isa was going for the ropes - but if she had any say in the matter, she wasn't going to get that far!

"Oh no you don't!" Maxine called back in defiance. With that, she threw herself forward, attempting to throw her weight down on top of E'isa to flatten her beneath her, hopefully halting her in her tracks. If that worked, Maxine would sit back up on the Latina's back, wrapping her legs around her arms before grabbing her chin and pulling it straight back to bend her spine with a camel clutch!

[XXVV]

Following the brawl and close call with the roll-up, E'isa would look for a moment to breathe, crawling for the ropes. The crowd cheered as she escaped again, accumulating new fans by the second. This type of resilience was a sight to see. No surrender in the Latina, wanting one thing, and that was a victory, letting out a grunt as her back ached. The damage was piling up as even just getting rolled up on her back and trying to escape took a lot and left her in pain. Looking back for a moment as she'd hear Maxine, eyeing her coming in hot, wanting to potentially throw her weight around again.

Although this time, she would see it coming. Trying to quickly react, she turned onto her back and threw her legs up, barely escaping another move targeted at her back. Legs still in the air, she'd attempt to use the failed attempt by Maxine against her. Leaning forward, she'd cross her right foot behind her left knee, placing it across the front of Maxine's neck before wrapping her arms around the back of her neck and clasping her hands together tightly. Trapping Maxine in her best emulation of Hell's gate, squeezing tightly, looking into the eyes of Maxine, calling for her to submit.

"TAP! YOU FRAUD!"
