Cecilia Lombard vs. Great Luvia

[CaptainL]

Cecilia had put everything she could into the surfboard hold, forcing Luvia's back to bent against the fulcrum that was her leg driving downward into her spine. She had wrenched back on the blonde's arms, drawing on them for traction in inflicting more pressure on her back. But Luvia's determination had won out, and even in the face of danger she refused to crack! Cecilia knew, then, that she would just need to hit her harder - but she had a plan, as she fell back, taking Luvia along with her, to lift her body into the air, proudly displayed in a ceiling hold!

A few of Luvia's fans gasped, wondering if this match was already over. Cecilia's eyes narrowed, looking up at her opponent with growing anticipation of when she would give in to the pressure. Yet, that moment never came. Even now, Luvia's willpower outstripped Cecilia's force - and even with her body forced skyward, with no room to move, she was staying defiant!

Cecilia cursed under her breath, growing frustrated with her opponent's determination. "Dammit...when are you going to give in!?" she muttered from beneath her shadow. She was doing her best to maintain the hold, but she was still being forced to support Luvia's weight, and the cracks were starting to form. The blonde could feel her fingers beginning to slip, and her grip eased; her knees buckled underneath her. If Luvia didn't tap soon, Cecilia feared that she could lose her grasp on her!

[Devastated]

Luviagelita was not willing to throw in the towel just yet, the surfboard hold was quite a draining and painful experience for her, one that had her body reeling and protesting in pain but it was far from over it seemed. Cecilia instead shifted her hold and pulled her up into the air! Holding her aloft in that cruel ceiling hold! The pain surged through her body as she was being put into a hold that caused most of the muscles in her body to tense and be strained through a near unbearable pain!

Though the Great Luvia wasn't about to throw in the towel, she clenched her teeth tight and stifled her cries for the first few moments, but soon that became too hard. "Aaaaah!~" She cried out in pain, shaking her head as she would try and trash and pull in whatever way she could, seeking to free herself.

The more she struggled though the more she could feel the hold weakening. She pulled upwards on her arms, and tried to flex her thighs, shifting and pulling on her legs as she felt little by little how Cecilia's hold was weakening. She sought to free herself, arms first as she aimed to pull them free from Cecilia's grip. She was going to fight until she could fight no more that was the Edelfelt way!

[CaptainL]

Cecilia grit her teeth, glaring up toward her opponent with narrowed eyes. Ordinarily, the cries of pain coming from Luvia, and the knowledge that she had her trapped and hopeless in front of so many eyes, would be worthy of her praise. Yet, Cecilia knew that things weren't quite over yet - and in the back of her mind, she couldn't shake a growing feeling of frustration.

If there was one thing she could bear to compliment Luvia on, it was that she was stubborn - annoyingly so. Cecilia was in this to beat her and break her - and now, despite all her efforts, despite the pain she was in, she was still holding on! The strain in her arms and legs was growing worse and worse as the blood began to rush back toward her core. If Luvia didn't tap out soon, Cecilia feared, she would have no choice but to let her down. And, when she was this determined to force her to submit, those were not odds she liked.

"Come...on! Tap already!" she hissed. But her grip was slipping away by the second, and Luvia had already begun to work against her hold. Little by little, she pulled herself free, until at last her arms were wrested from Cecilia's grasp. The brunette's arms fell limp and sore at her side, and, unable to keep her balance against the struggling Luvia, she teetered over to the side, bringing the two of them down!

[Devastated]

Luviagelita's body was suffering through an immense amount of pain, but the blonde was haughty and stubborn. Too full of herself to submit at this point and she was holding on solely with her pride. She continued to fight through the pain and struggle in the hold. Jostling and pulling on her arms to try and break free from Cecilia's hold....

Moments passed and slowly but surely she began to feel her arms slipping free, first her right and then finally her left! Her arms freed and Luviagelita let out a loud huff of relief! Then she was brought down, dumped onto her side as she was freed from Cecilia's painful hold. She whimpered in pain for a couple of seconds.

Then the blonde rolled, creating some distance between them as Luvia tried to get to the ropes and use them to slowly pull her pained frame up towards her feet.

[CaptainL]

If Cecilia was the type to show anything but contempt to her opponents, she would have to be impressed by how Luvia was holding on. She knew that many a lesser woman would have tapped out by now, yet Luvia was hanging in there, refusing to let the pain get to her! Her endurance was incredible, and so was her refusal to submit under any circumstances. But for Cecilia, that just made the thought of breaking her body and her pride all the more enticing.

But the effort of holding onto Luvia was putting just as much strain on Cecilia as it was on the blonde herself, and no matter how much she tried, she couldn't keep her grip forever. At last, Cecilia's grip slipped free, and her arms dropped at her side, bringing Luvia down with her. For a moment, she lay on her back, arms splayed around her, as she groaned under her breath to try and center herself.

Soon, though, Cecilia got her bearings. She rolled up onto her hands and knees, keeping an unblinking eye on Luvia all the while as she stared her down. As the Finnish woman picked herself up with the ropes, Cecilia lifted herself to her feet to follow. She cracked her neck from side to side in a taunt to her opponent, letting Luvia know that she was only getting started as she began to slowly strafe around her in a circle, waiting for the right moment to strike.

[Devastated]

Luviagelita couldn't say she was in the best condition right now. She was in pain...she was exhausted and she needed a moment or two to catch her breath. She would pull herself up with the help of the ropes and lean against them as she quickly tried to regain her bearings. As she did, she caught sight of Cecilia starting to strafe and circle her.

It seemed as if her opponent was no fool, she wasn't going to recklessly attack. Great Luvia knew that she would have to think of something. Some way to get back into this fight. Watching Cecilia stalk her her like a big cat trying to corner their prey. Luvia wasn't about to be made anyone's prey though! She would push back against the ropes and use them to suddenly launch herself forward! Bouncing off of them as she aimed to close the distance between them rather quickly!

The blonde heiress would try and lift her boot up and go for a surprise big boot right into the chest of Cecilia in an attempt to take the raven-haired fighter down.

[CaptainL]

This match was taking its toll on Cecilia, too. Much as she had talked down to her opponent, she was forced to concede that Luvia was a powerful and skilled wrestler, one who had challenged her abilities; even when Cecilia thought she had her under control, she was proving frustratingly persistent, and breaking her body and spirit was no easy task. As she rose off the canvas, Cecilia rubbed at her arms, her muscles aching with the strain of supporting Luvia's weight for so long, and she had to bend her back into an arc to work the kinks out of it, grimacing as she did. If she knew one thing, though, it was that she couldn't, under any circumstances, let Luvia believe the match was getting to her. She wanted to outwit her foe as much as she could outwrestle her, letting the Finnish girl know she never stood a chance - and just like that, Cecilia was back on her feet, training her eyes on her opponent as she circled around her as though nothing had happened.

If it worked, though, it wasn't going to slow Luvia down! Just as Cecilia looked like she was about to close in on Luvia, the blonde sprung back against the ropes, using them to hurl herself straight toward her foe! The moment she'd been waiting for, when Luvia moved and her guard went down, had come - and yet, Cecilia wasn't prepared for her to try something so daring; she had nothing to defend herself with! Luvia's foot rammed into Cecilia like a cannon ball, and she reeled backward with a sputtering cough, her head dipping low as she bent back in an arc. Thrown off her feet, she came crashing down onto her back, where she lay groaning and dizzied at Luvia's feet.

[Devastated]

Great Luvia surged forward with newfound vigor. She rushed right at Cecilia for this rather desperate attack, but at this point she knew that she had to go all in if she wanted to take down Cecilia! The Finnish wrestler raised her boot and smashed it right into the chest of the raven haired girl. Watching as Cecilia flew down onto her back, and coughed....Luvia stumbled forward a step or two after following through with that Big Boot. She leaned forward and placed her hands on her knees, panting out a bit as she tried to recover for a second or so.

She would turn around and reach down for Cecilia's head. Trying to grab it and start to guide her foe up towards her feet. She aimed to get them both up to a full stand, where she would try and pull Cecilia's head in under her armpit. She knew that she had to move fast, and not let Cecilia get much time to recover. So she would quickly try and hook that leg of Cecilia's and with it the blonde would try and heave her up and throw her backwards with a Fisherman's Suplex attempt! Looking to bridge and keep that leg hooked as she aimed to go for a pin attempt right after!

[CaptainL]

When Luvia charged straight ahead at her, she struck Cecilia with the full force of her momentum, and the American was pulled down by the force of gravity as her footing gave out and she dropped onto her back. For a moment she lay coughing and sputtering; her ribs had absorbed the impact as best they could, but she'd still had quite a bit of air knocked out of her lungs. And in the end, Luvia would be the first to make it back to her feet - something she was quick to use against her foe.

Cecilia was grabbed by the head and dragged to her feet. She let out a groan, folded over forward with her legs spread beneath her and her arms dangling low. As she started to shake the cobwebs out of her head, Cecilia tried reaching for Luvia's arms to pull them free of her, but it was too late. Luvia grabbed her by the leg, and in one swift motion she swung Cecilia over her head, slamming her into the ground like a hammer!

The crowd cheered for Luvia as Cecilia hit the mat with a thud, the canvas rumbling under the impact. As she hooked her leg, the referee was quick to drop to their side, starting the count. "One! Two!"

As the official raised her hand a third time, the crowd watched in a tense silence, waiting on the moment it would drop. It seemed as though Luvia was seconds away from putting her unscrupulous opponent in her place! Cecilia needed to think fast. She was starting to come to her senses, but she didn't think she'd be able to get her bearings in time to kick out. And yet...she was here to make a name for herself, and to prove she was a force to be reckoned with. She couldn't afford to lose!

Looking to bide her time, Cecilia reached out with her free hand, her fingers outstretched to latch onto Luvia's leotard. If that worked, she could give the material a firm yank upward, hoping to dig it into the blonde's groin - hopefully, that would keep her distracted enough to let the pin slip enough for Cecilia to escape!

[Devastated]

This was it! Luviagelita had just thrown Cecilia Lombard up and over and nailed her with a mighty Fisherman's Suplex! She had gotten in a good hit with that big boot and now she had managed to nail Cecilia hard into the canvas. The suplex had been pretty much picture perfect, a testament to Luviagelita's suplexing skills, she wasn't known as the Lady Forklift for nothing. The Great Luvia folded Cecilia up and went for that pin...

From the looks of it, Cecilia Lombard's stirring wasn't going to free her in time. The second count had come and gone and the referee's hand had reached the zenith. It was ready to come down any moment now. Though Luvia hadn't counted on Cecilia going for such underhanded actions as she did. The raven haired woman grabbed at her leotard and pulled! The outfit of Luviagelita dug upwards into her groin, a blush formed on her face and her grip of Cecilia pretty much crumbled completely, allowing Cecilia the freedom to escape as Luvia's hands began to move to cover her groin and pull her outfit out of places it shouldn't be riding up into!
