Mikuma felt BEYOND nervous. Another week, another match to try and build some notoriety for herself. The young, up-and-coming Joshi-wrestler was riddled with a typical case of stage fright. She had issues going out in front of a crowd and performing. What would people think? What would they say? Was her outfit alright? Did she have any issues? Was she feeling alright? Did she remember any of her moves? The bear-themed wrestler felt her world spiraling out of control, but eventually, the inevitable arrived as she was called up to enter first for her upcoming match against Raquel Masters...Mikuma didn't know who that was, but from the sound of her name, she sounded tough and well-regarded. She grimaced for a second, thinking about that name...It couldn't hurt to look up who she was...right? This was a TERRIBLE thing to do last minute, but-...Mikuma pulled up her phone and typed in her name, finding out about her profile, record, and skills...this woman was a practical prodigy...Mikuma started to feel more and more nervous. Oh gosh!!! She was going to die tonight, wasn't she? The match coordinators just signed her up for this match in order to feed her to Raquel, didn't they!? The young Japanese woman felt another panic attack coming along. This was just terrible!!!

Eventually, the crew members gave her a cue time, leaving her with just sixty seconds left to deliberate and get her fears under wraps. Her heart was pounding, her mind was spinning, and her body was shaking...but after a few deep breaths, Mikuma slapped both of her cheeks and looked at herself in the mirror, trying to encourage herself through the use of affirmations and positive feedback, something her friend Jiyuu trained her how to do in order to combat her pre-match nerves...by becoming her own number one cheerleader!!! "You can do this!!! You're Mikuma 'KUMA' Sato!!! You've trained your freaking BUTT off for this!!! If anyone can do this, it's you!!! You've got so much to prove and the skills to back it up...You've done it before, and you can do it again. It's like riding a bike...It'll all come to you naturally...Deep breaths-...Deep...breaths-..." She sighs, calming herself down before turning to the locker room exit. She walks through the halls, making her entrance as her theme song kicks up...

Spoiler

Mikuma enters the fray and walks down the ramp. Nervous at first, she goes to strike a pose of confidence, letting out a great, big, cutesy roar to hype the crowd up...She paused for a moment, worried that they might've not enjoyed that...but then a ROAR of applause and cheer echoed all around her, filling the young, plump-bodied girl with hope as she began to take more confident strides toward the ring before rolling inside and making her way toward her designated corner.

Raquel was wrestling some newer woman who she had never heard of before. Raquel had been wrestling well as a whole but her recent Apex loss had left her in a bad spot. She needed to get back on track. The lean lightweight was going to go up against a much bigger woman and Raquel was determined to show that the smaller women of the roster could stack up against anyone else regardless of size.

Her music played and Raquel came out all smiles as she jumped around, blowing kisses to the crowd. Clad in her turquoise and pink attire she was full of energy and saw her opponent. Raquel bolted towards the ring jumping from the floor to the apron in one bound, then over the ropes in a second leap to enter the ring. She flexed her biceps and pat her defined abs before strutting about giving her backside a smack as she swayed her hips. "I know you got some meat on your bones girl but don't think I can't take the fight to you. I've picked up and slammed bigger women who had more... ahhh. firmness than that." Raquel said with a smile strutting out to the center of the ring to wait for the opening bell.

"F-Firmness? That's..." Mikuma was beginning to feel nervous and scared again, but then she let out a deep huff, patting her cheeks and shaking her head. No, no, no, no, no!!!!! She PROMISED Jiyuu that she would always try her best and NEVER look back with regret. The bear-themed wrestler calmed herself down and took a few deep breaths, trying to keep her composure before looking back at her small but intimidating opponent. "You...don't scare me!!! And let me tell you why!!! I'm THE biggest, STRONGEST rookie to ever hit the stage here...My name may be small now, but one day, it'll shake the heavens!!! I'm building a legacy for myself...and it begins here and now, starting with ME beating YOU!!! So give me ALL you've got and THEN SOME, because that's the ONLY way you're gonna be able to take down Mikuma 'KUMA' Sato!!!" She said, stomping forward and striking a strong, dominant pose, trying to intimidate Raquel as the audience cheers her on, spurring the young woman on and encouraging her...she decides to let out another roar...and this time...it comes across as a genuine WAR CRY, shaking the audience to their core!!!

"ORRRYYYYAHHHH!!!!!!." She yells!!!

"Ok then big girl, bring it on! Just because I am a lightweight doesn't mean you can just show up and have your way with me in the ring." Raquel shot back. As the bell rang Raquel ran at Mikuma and would duck low to roll by her before continuing to run to the ropes. Raquel bounced off and jumped up aiming a dropkick as high as she could at Mikuma's upper chest or even her face trying to open up the match by striking hard!

The bell rings, and the match kicks off!!! The crowd erupts with a burst of cheers and applause for both Mikuma and Raquel, eager to see these two drastically different wrestlers collide and clash within the squared circle. Mikuma gets her hands up and approaches Raquel with caution. The bear-themed wrestler attempts to go for an opening grapple, but her smaller opponent rolls around her, surprising her from behind with a sudden Dropkick as Raquel hops up and pumps her legs out, planting her boots firmly against Mikuma's chest. The young woman gives a stern grunt before backing up a couple of steps, letting out a sharp wince but keeping her balance before attempting to return fire at Raquel with a Forearm Smash at her chest once she stood back up.

To say that Raquel was disappointed that her opponent didn't drop after the dropkick was a gross understatement. She got up and was smashed hard by a forearm to the chest sending her stumbling back into the ropes barely after to stay up herself after such a simple hit! Raquel used the ropes bounce to run back at Mikuma and ran at her as quickly as she could, leaping into her shoulder first looking to strike the same spot where the dropkick had just landed!

Mikuma SLAMMED her forearm across Raquel's chest, knocking the lightweight woman back a few steps. However, the bear-themed Joshi only served to help Raquel with this attack as the more experienced wrestler used the impact to her advantage. She ricochets off the ropes and returns fire with a HARD-HITTING Shoulder Tackle right against Mikuma. The young Japanese wrestler grunts from the tackle, stumbling back a step and hitting the ropes just like Raquel, but she still manages to stay on her feet. No matter what the lightweight tossed at her, the heavyweight just wasn't going down. Mikuma attempted to use this information to her advantage, trying to maintain her balance and toss her weight around so that Raquel couldn't knock her over. If Raquel hadn't moved after the previous tackle, Mikuma would have walked up to her and picked her up, aiming to muscle the lightweight woman onto her arms and SLAM her down back-first across the canvas via a Scoop Slam!!!

Raquel was on the move when Mikuma grabbed her and lift. Raquel smiled and as she was lift up she pushed off using the momentum of the lift to try to fall behind Mikuma! She smiled and swung her leg up spinning around and aiming a kick at Mikuma again but this time it was high flying right at the head of her opponent! She could be big and bad all she wanted to a hard shot to the head was the same for anyone and this is when Raquel expected to send Mikuma crashing to the mat in a heap having plans in mind for after to really seize the momentum.

Mikuma raised Raquel off the canvas, using her strength to muscle her up with ease...However, the quick-thinking lightweight was prepared! With a quick pivot and push, Raquel maneuvered herself out of harm's way, escaping Mikuma's grip and landing on her feet behind the young rookie. Mikuma gasps in shock once Raquel falls behind her, and she foolishly turns around without defending herself first, being met with a kick to the head that nails her right upside the cheek and temple, causing her to stumble back a few steps before tripping over and falling onto her back in a daze, groaning as her vision became blurry.

Raquel stepped forward and stomped down hard on Mikuma twice before yanking her up to her feet by her hair. Raquel smiled and turned looking to snapmare Mikuma over her shoulder once.... then a second time.... then a third! "Come on if you want to wrestle oldschool I can do that too!" Raquel said as she pulled Mikuma up to her feet again!

Raquel tensed up her body grabbing Mikuma between the legs and over the shoulder. She grunted and yelled as she lift Mikuma off her feet scooping her up and lifting! Raquel held her high and stumbled a few steps but still held Mikuma up and steady before stepping forward to slam Mikuma down to the mat with shocking power! The lean muscular lightweight would strut about and flex, nodding to the crowd for a second before attempting to pin Mikuma!
