The Shining Jewel open challenge (featuring Lex)

[SubtleRoar]

"There, there~" *Noticing the efficacy of his submission beginning to overwhelm Nancy's indomitable will and refusal to succumb to his underhanded tactics, Cobra tightened the pressure against her midsection by crossing his legs together while re-securing his grip against the base of her throat to accelerate the eventual collapse of his prey!* "I promisssse it will be all over before you know it~"

*Meanwhile, Lex was taking his leisurely time recuperating from the pummeling he had been exposed to, shaking off the cobwebs upstairs while staggering back onto his feet.* "Jeez, took you long enough to initiate the plan! That crazy bitch nearly cracked my skull open." *Hearing the audience chide and ridicule them, Lex responded by elevating his two favorite fingers to broadcast how he felt towards them!*

[Knocked]

In one last hopeless but defiant showing, she thrashed around one more time in-between getting choked out and struggling to stay conscious, rolling around from left to right whilst throwing another array of flailing punches aimed at Trent. Seeing as she's going to stare at the lights soon, Nancy flipped the middle finger at Lex as her last action before her supply gets depleted completely, the girl slipping into a downed state just like the previous challenger she snuck up upon beforehand.

*As the duplicitous act of ambushing the unprepared rookie unfurled before their very eyes, the audience started to gradually turn on the masculine dyad, all the while Cobra's constricting embrace continued to sap Nancy of any and all energy she was potentially preserving! Hearing the incessant scolding and jeering from the crowd was enough to rile up The Silver Bullet, who proceeded to turn his attention towards the exacerbated audience!*

"What?!" *He gestured towards the semi-conscious female while flexing his right bicep.* "As if she could contend with crafted muscles like mine! All I did was expedite the inevitable!" *Only serving to tarnish his reputation with the spectators even further. Meanwhile, as the jade serpent felt the last vestige of vigor escape Nancy's figure, he dropped her lifeless body against the surface of the arena, slithering to his feet to join his compatriot in taunting the crowd!*

"Thisssssss is the beginning of a new era on law!" *The venomous viper declared, slithering alongside his pugilistic ally while listening to the choir of disdain from the live audience, knowing full well that their imminent victory would leave an indelible mark on the wrestling world!*

[Knocked]

The crowd continued to jeer and hurl expletives at the two, with a few having the bright idea of throwing their trash into the ring with a few unopened plastic bottles still full of their juices being the more dangerous ones to toss alongside the usual garbage, as the two challengers lay unconscious strewn in different locations of the ring, being at risk of getting hit with the items.

Nancy on the other hand seems to lay dormant for now, till she seems to show some subtle signs of movement, as if the burgeoning hopeful from MMA's slowly recovering from the sudden sneak attack.

[SubtleRoar]

*Despite a typhoon of dross and debris cluttering the ring, the triumphant dyad of Lex and Cobra couldn't be more ecstatic as they exited the arena and snatched The Gem's Haven belt, elevating it above their heads for the crowd to behold!* "If anyone wantssss a piece of this hardware, you know where to find ussss!" *trent boldly declared, Lex elevating and waving his favorite finger towards the riled up crowd to irritate them even further before the pair sauntered up the metal ramp, leaving Nancy to lick her wounds.*

*With their motives obvious and their intentions clear, Lex and Cobra seemed adamant on proving not only their own worth on the law circuit, but quelling the stereotype that men should be considered an afterthought on a female-centric league. The question isn't why, but when will their next attack transpire, and who do they have in their crosshairs? Only they know, and neither one of them plan on divulging their grandiose plan anytime soon.*

Winner- Cobra and Lex.
