The three women never expected to find themselves together for another tag match after being chosen to represent LAW in a cross-promotional tag challenge against three of XCW's women's division - but here they were. The crowd had been so impressed with their skill and talent in working together that they had been booked for an encore, pitting their prowess now against a team closer to home - the Jaeger Sisters, now with the appearance of their mother Audrey.
Astrid Ostberg flexed with a confident grin on her face as she prepared herself backstage.
"Audrey Hunter, hrm?" she said.
"Sounds like I'll have a real veteran to go against. I hope she can put forth the power to live up to her legacy."
"Are...you sure this is going to work? I mean, we're not a real team, or anything..." Marzia asked her would-be teammates.
"Can't they...get someone else?"
"Hey, it worked fine last time," Michiko said, giving her a wink and a friendly slap on the back.
"Just do what you did then, and you'll do great!"
Marzia gulped at that, knowing that the last time the three of them had taken part in a six-woman tag their match was fraught with twists, turns, and interference, with the strife between the XCW women playing a part in contributing to their victory when their opponents turned on one another. But this was different. This time, they were against a family, one close enough to join in the ring. They wouldn't break as easily. Could they still pull through?
In any case, the call would soon come for the three to make their way to the ring.
Astrid walked proudly down the entrance ramp, holding one arm up and flexing it to show off her build to the crowd, while Michiko hopped along at her side, raising her own fist to help build the cheers from the fans. Marzia, meanwhile, came up behind, huffing to herself as she glanced around nervously. It seemed that the entrance of the team drew a positive reception from those who had seen their last match, as the cheers grew louder when they arrived on the scene. As they took their places around the ring, Marzia just hoped it'd be enough.
