Tournament Bracket

[SwordSavior1]

Jessica entered this tourney to prove that she was the best in brains, beauty and brawn. Maybe if she had the time, the crimson haired woman could use this opportunity to humiliate her victims in front of hundreds. She already made a strong impression by destroying Micaiah Wilson at the PPV. Even if there wasn't a trophy or belt waiting at the tunnel, she at least could get the recognition and possibly a push. "Your first opponent is just a stepping stone for the ring queen" giving herself a pep talk through the use of a mirror

Being given her call, she left the locker room and was set to make her entrance. Wearing her new white and red bikini, the heel strutted down the aisle looking confident as ever. The crowd gave a mixed reaction because of their stance on Jessica's personality and how enjoyable their matches were. "Don't take any pictures boys and girls yet. You will be seeing plenty of me!" she couldn't sound anymore arrogant while addressing the crowd. Rolling beneath the bottom rope, the heel walked to the corner and rested her back against the corner. If she was dealing with a tricky foe then the heel could always rely on aiming below the belt. She was more than ready to start her tournament run, but is her opponent?

Amy finished tying up her new bikini. It was red... very red. A stark contrast to her usual blue. It was also much smaller than her usual ring gear too. The blonde wasn’t afraid to show too much skin. Her normal gear should have made that quite obvious. Yet she still felt uneasy in this. Wrestling gear had fastens and other safety measures to keep it from coming off. Swimsuits, on the other hand, weren’t very... wrestling-friendly. Amy didn’t exactly want to become an exhibitionist any time soon, so she was going to have to be careful in this match.

Speaking of the match, Amy wasn’t completely sure why she was even here. She had just kind of been thrown into it by one of the higher ups as some kind of “emergency replacement.” She was all for participating in tournaments and all, but even this was a little bit too much for her. Nevertheless, it was too late now to turn back.

Last time Amy wrestled in a tournament was back on the indies. She managed to win it against all odds, and was hoping to do the same here.

As her music began playing, she burst out from behind the curtain and raised her hand up to rally the crowd. She knew she wasn’t going to be massively popular with nothing but a loss and a win on her record, but she was pleasantly surprised by the reaction she did get.

She quickly made her way to the ring, slapping any hands that were outstretched to her, before hoping into the ring and facing her opponent.

A quick observation of the redhead reminded her of Junko. Hopefully this woman was nothing like her.

With both girls ready to go, the bell rang, and the match began.

DING! DING! DING!

[SwordSavior1]

If Jessie were to lose a top or bottom, she would have only have qualms if it was her opponent trying to attain dominance. This wasn't primarily a sexual bout but both wrestlers were given the opportunity to play as they pleased if given the opportunity. Apparently there weren't a lot of volunteers for the tournament, despite its appealing premise although that was just a rumour the ex-convict heard.

Her opponent didn't leave a massive impression upon first sight. Just some blonde trash who was about to swept aside. In terms of size things look even at first, although she was a few inches taller. Maybe she could focus more on intimidation. Bark being just as important as bite. Jessica felt a bit bitter that the other wrestler had a louder reception.

"So not much of a talker are you?" calling out from the opposite side of the ring. No pre-match banter or trashtalking. She wasn't sure what that meant in the grand scheme. Shortly after the bell rang signalling the beginning of this tourney bout. The crimson haired wrestler stepped out from the corner and raised her arms in a defensive chance. Circling around Amy, she tried finding a weak point to exploit. "Cmon! Show me what you got!"

[FinyBoy]

As the bell rang, Amy too came out of her corner and began to circle her opponent. She wasn't the biggest girl in the world by a long shot, but she definitely wasn't small either. She hoped that their similarity in size would allow for a more even and competitive match.

"I prefer to let my actions speak for themselves!"

With that, Amy would attempt to lunge forward and lock up with her foe in a traditional collar and elbow tie-up. She had no idea what to expect from the red-haired girl. Looks and demeanor could only tell so much. Amy was pretty confident in her own strength, so she hoped to take advantaged of that, sooner, rather than later.

[SwordSavior1]

"Oh finally you talked great!" replying in a rather sarcastic tone. One of those serious no nonsense types? Then what is she doing here in this sort of contest. Perhaps through her actions, Jessica can make the blonde beg for mercy or at least that squeal.

The two were locked in the centre for a simple strength contest. Jessica exerted her upper body strength and tried forcing Amy to fall down to her knees. However her opponent proved to be no weakling with how they were pulling back and forth at first. From the get go, the crimson haired woman needed to pull out one of her tricks. "Take this!" maybe warning her opponent in advance wasn't the best idea but she did it anyway. She threw her headbutt hoping it would make the blonde stagger a little.

[FinyBoy]

With the tie-up at a bit of a stalemate right now, Amy needed a plan of action to break it. Unfortunately, her opponent was the first to react. As a result, the blonde received a solid headbutt to the forehead, causing her to waiver for a moment. "ARGH!" It hurt like hell.

But along with strength, Amy was also known for her tenacity. In fact, those two were her selling traits, along with being overly cheerful and competitive. Assuming Jessica didn't go for an immediate follow-through, Amy would quickly shake it off and return the favor with a headbutt of her own!

[SwordSavior1]

Jessica landed the first strike and expected everything to be smooth sailings from this point. She held onto Amy's shoulder and neck as if ready to toss her into the mat. "Is that all you got?" she taunted although this may be the factor that provoked the blonde to fighting back.

Not going for the follow through right away, Amy was willing to act as she pleased by retaliating. "AGHHHHHHHH!" the poisonous woman cried out upon receiving a headbutt, one with more force than the previous one. Feeling a little dizzy from the unexpected strike, Jessica was only barely hanging on, allowing her opponent to proceed with the next stage.

[FinyBoy]

With her head still smarting a bit from both wrestler's headbutts, Amy seized the opportunity to take the early advantage.

Another headbutt was in order. Amy sent a second one straight to the spot where she hit the first one. She hoped that would loosen Jessica's hold on her.

Then, Amy released the grapple she was locked in, pushing Jessica backwards. From there, Amy would rush forwards and attempt to hit the woman with a solid clothesline to the neck! Assuming it hit, the blonde was hoping that it would be enough to take the red-head down to the mat!

[SwordSavior1]

"Alright wise girl. Enough playing aro-AHHHHHH" She was about to focus on grappling once again until, Amy interrupted her mid-sentence with another headbutt. Outside of gently massaging the blonde's shoulders, Jessica had no hold over her opponent as proof she was at a current disadvantage.

As she was pushed away, all the heel would do is massage her forehead while Amy prepared a followup attack. With Jessica's vision blinded by the placements of her hands, she had no mean to evade or block the oncoming clothesline. Coughing up some saliva from the arm cutting into her throat, the crimson haired woman flew a bit before dropping onto her back.
