Sparring and Training Session

[Weonna]

Christina had the Anaconda Vice on perfectly as she held Momoi down. It would be a brutal submission to escape since Christina was well placed and heavier than her coach. When she felt the tap, she immediately let go of Momoi and was on her knees awaiting further instructions. So far, this training exercise was enjoyable for Christina as she liked this hands-on approach.

When it was time to review more footage from her debut match, there were glimpses of Christina's defense abilities as she stopped Fuko's German Suplex. The ankle lock was a move that she didn't get to use that much, and even she recognized her mistake as she was applying it while her body was behind both legs making it easy for Fuko to kick her.

"Yikes yeah, your right...That's my bad...was in the moment there should've been paying attention to my placement."

And now we get to the most significant mistake Christina made. And also, her most crucial flaw is her striking defense.. and striking in general but primarily exceptional Defense, as she got kicked to the ropes and just stated there clenching her face in pain.

Momoi suggested Christina should keep her front facing towards the opponent at all times to which Christina nodded in agreement. The pinkinette also explained a relatively new thing to Christina, which was ring rebounding off the ropes. This piqued Christina's interest more as she had all ears on this one for the next match she would be in. With her ears locked in Momoi's instructions, it was time for a demonstration to which Christina had to kick Momoi, and the Pink haired woman would try to attack off the defensive rebound she was talking about. All Christina had to do was counterattack as the dark-haired wrestler was ready. "OK, couch...don't worry, I won't hurt that pretty face of yours~" she smirked as she lightly raised and front kicked Momoi while pushing her bare feet to force the Pinkett to the ropes. She made sure that the kick wasn't that hard as she awaited Momoi's next move.

Momoi had braced herself for the kick, but she could tell Christina held back once it actually connected. She did more of a push than an actual kick. It didn't really matter though, it got the job done. Momoi had little trouble keeping her balance, and even ending up taking a step into the ropes to generate some extra momentum.

Momoi followed her own instructions, getting her back to the ropes and bouncing off at high speeds towards Christina. She raised her fist up for a running punch at Christina's head, but it was a feint. Momoi instead ducked down to the side and swung around Christina's back. Once she did, Momoi would grab Christina around her waist and use her momentum to pull Christina back and slam her with a German Suplex.

Momoi could've continued, and tried to either hold her for a pin or follow up with a submission. But since this was training, she simply released Christina and let her fall to the floor. "See what I mean Christina? The ropes are a powerful tool for someone who knows how to use them."

"Now it's your turn," said Momoi. Once they were in position she would kick Christina, and then wait to she what she had in store for her.

[Weonna]

Christina was ready for a counter once her kick hit Momoi. She observed how Mompi used the ropes for momentum after getting hit and would bounce off the ropes with great speed. The dark-haired woman would fall for the Pinkettes fake as she was ready to grab the arm and use it to toss her to the canvas, but the more petite girl would quickly wrap her arms around Christina's waist as Momoi got behind her and lifted her for a German Suplex.

"Ahh!"

THUD

Tho the impact wasn't that serious, it amazed Christina how the more petite girl was able to lift her like that as she felt pretty embarrassed. When Momoi let go, Christina would roll and be on her knees, rubbing the back of her head.

"Damn...didn't know you could lift me like that..." Christina would slowly get back up and await instructions from Momoi. Now it was her turn to give the rebound a try as the two would switch places. Waiting for Momoi to kick her face, Christina had plotted a move she wanted to use.

When the eventual kick came in, Christina followed what Momoi instructed her to do, getting her back to the ropes and using it to bounce off to gain momentum. While running at Momoi, the BJJ expert would instinctively go for a power double leg Takedown. However, unknowingly to Christina, she would use the speed from the ropes, and her power double leg would change to a Spear as she attempted to shoulder tackle Momoi's midsection to the canvas.

"Heh, you'll be amazed what a strong head of steam can do for you," said Momoi after hearing Christina's reaction to getting slammed onto the mat. "Can't say I'm exactly looking forward to you doing it back to me, but it's not like I've never taken a hit from a bigger wrestler before."

After Momoi kicked Christina and she came back off of the ropes, the middleweight looked like she didn't know what to do with the speed she had. And that speed was coming straight at Momoi. To her credit, Christina was able to get herself under control well enough to run straight through Momoi's gut with a spear.

"Urgh! Ah!" Momoi grunted as she was blasted in the stomach, and then had her back planted into the mat by Christina. "Ugh," groaned Momoi. "See what I meant about what momentum can do?" The trainer stood up. Her stomach stung, but she was alright.

"Well, that was the last point from the match that I was wanting to go over, so I think this is a good point to take a short break," said Momoi.

[Weonna]

Christina was worried a bit as she got on her knees to see if her Trainer was alright. Luckily Momoi wasn't that hurt by it as she got up.

Momoi wanted a small break, to which Christina got up and Stretched. "Alright, coach! Can't wait to see what else you got in store for me."

Christina still had a lot of energy. The new year was coming, and she made a New year Resolution to improve. While there was a break, Christina wanted to try out some new moves she had been working on to add into her arsenal. She decided to use the break time to continue training as she grabbed a leather training dummy for her to use.

The first move she was working on was a DDT. She grabbed the Dummy and began to repeatedly slam the dummy face into the canvas over and over again till she felt satisfied with the technique of the move.

DDT

"Hmmm...that one move I did to Momoi...I think I could also utilize that as well~" Christina was talking to herself as she was referring to the Spear she hit Momoi with. It was an easy move to replicate; Christina was trying to find a way where the Spear would be quick and efficient for her. She aimed to get opponents to the canvas, so her Spear version wasn't necessarily going to finish her opponents. It was there for her to get on the mats with them as when she attempted her new Spear move, she would quickly move to side control.

Fast Spear Takedown

Spoiler

While in Side control, Christina decided to test out positions as she could get to the mounted Crucifix quickly. As she was moving into another place. She got to top mount and decided to give it some good old-fashioned ground and pound. She gave the Dummy a few good elbows. As the Dark-haired woman was pounding away, she looked at Momoi. "Hey, this is legal, right?" She would ask her trainer while she was delivering elbows at the Dummy.

Savagery

[deezcastforms]

Though Momoi wanted to use her break to rest, Christina decided to use it to practice a few of her moves. Momoi figured that she may as well watch as she did so. The trainer certainly had something to say about the form on the DDT that she was performing. Then Christina began raining down elbows on the training dummy, before asking if that was actually allowed.

"There are some rulesets that ban the use of downward elbow strikes to the skull for fighter safety, but at least by LAW standards, what you're doing is perfectly legal," replied Momoi. "What I'm more concerned about is your DDT. Cut out the leg kick, it's only purpose is for spectacle. It looks like you're charging up to make it hurt more, but all you're really doing is giving you're opponent a window to sweep your other leg and reverse you. Just go straight down with it," the trainer instructed.

Christina's weakness that was the focus of the first part of training was her lackluster defensive technique. And now that she had succeeded in practicing that, Momoi would let the next part of training focus on her strengths. Her lethal offense, specifically her submissions. "I'm feeling ready to go again. Are there any other moves you have that you want me to take a look at?

[Weonna]

Christina stopped ground and pounding when she heard her coach's advice on her DDT. "Cut the leg part off? Well...ok...I'll try~" as she got up, she dusted and wiped the sweat off. Momoi wanted to know if she had any Moves she wanted her to look at as Christina nodded.

"Actually, yeah, I do...I've been working on this new spear Takedown move, and I was wondering if it is any good?" Christina referred to her Quick Spear Takedown she had been working on a few moments ago.

[deezcastforms]

"You mean the move you just put straight into my stomach? If that's what you're talking about, then I can already attest that you're doing it right Christina," said Momoi with a laugh. "And from when I saw you do it to the training dummy as well, I can say for sure that you the spear down pat."

"Your background is in BJJ, and your a submissions specialist," said Momoi. "I was thinking of something more along those lines. I know what most submission holds are supposed to look and feel like, so I can certainly help you grind out any issues you might be struggling with on that end."

[Weonna]

Christina was glad to hear that her newly acquired Spear Technique was approved by her coach, which made her smile a bit.

When Momoi started to talk about her background in BJJ and told her that she could grind out her issues, this caused Christina to raise an eyebrow.

"Hmmm, are you trying to help me with my submissions? I thought my Technique in the ground is already mastered. Altho I'm open to hearing from you."
She crosses her arms as she approaches her Trainer.

[deezcastforms]

Momoi noticed that Christina seemed more skeptical about having her submissions critiqued, believing that she had already gotten them to the level of mastery. Though to Momoi's delight, Christina was willing to be receptive towards Momoi, a sure sign that the pinkette had earned her trust as a wrestling trainer.

"Well, the only submission I've seen from you was the ankle lock in your match that you got kicked out of. So I can only assume that other holds that you believe you have down could have similar flaws that you haven't discovered yet, explained Momoi. "Tell you what Christina, I'll put my money where my mouth is. Put me in whatever hold you want, and I won't tap until I find something wrong with it to correct."
