Belinda Northman Vs. Tina Armstrong - Apex Qualifier

[Devastated]

Belinda struggled and rolled them up, locking her hands together and pushed Tina down onto her shoulders. Pinning her down against the canvas and going for that pinfall attempt. She got all the way up to a two count before Tina broke the hold and kicked her away.

The Swedish-American would roll away and clutch her arm as she did. Trying to make her way up to her feet as she fixed her gaze at Tina. Watching the short haired girl for a second or two. The next thing Belinda would do is go on the offensive! Rushing right at Tina as it seemed like she was going to go in for a tackle or the like.

However! Belinda would instead try and go in for a slide at the last second. Trying to go in for a sliding dropkick and hit Tina right on her shins! Trying to drop her onto the canvas.

Tina saw Belindaa coming and was readying herself to stop Belinda, however the sudden low dropkick took Tina down hard! "UGH!"

Tina groaned and went down hitting the mat and rubbing her now throbbing shins as Belinda succeeded in taking the fight back to Tina.

[Devastated]

The low dropkick hit square upon target! Right at Tina's shins and dropping Tina down hard onto the canvas! Letting out a light sigh of relief as she managed to catch Tina off guard. Belinda was going to keep the momentum up if she could. Rolling up onto her knees, she would quickly try and take a hold of Tina by her head and pull her right up into a seated position.

For the moment Belinda was going to try and keep this fast-paced! As she would run towards the ropes and bounce off of them. Coming straight for Tina's back as she sought to go in for a running shootkick straight into the back of Tina! Looking to soften the Tigress up a bit!

[Highfly]

To say that Tina's hot start had cooled off was as understatement! The stunned tigress was sat up only to be kicked hard right on the spine!

Tina groaned and flopped back down to the mat in a heap, grunting in pain on the canvas.

[Devastated]

Smashing her leg into Tina's back worked out rather well! Belinda watched as the fellow blonde dropped down onto the canvas. Pumping her fist a bit in excitement that it had worked. Belinda would try and reach down for Tina's legs and try to drag her towards the center of the ring. Trying to get her away from an easy rope break, before she would try and tuck those legs in under her armpits.

She would aim to then turn Tina over and began to arch that lower back as she sought to put Tina in a Boston Crab submission hold. Backing up a few micro steps before lowering herself down to be seated on Tina's back. Trying to wrench and up the pressure on those hips of the Tigress.

[Highfly]

Tina howled in pain as Belinda locked in the Boston crab! She clawed at the mat and thrashed her head about, realizing the ropes were far away.

Tina tried to exert herself using the power in her legs to tey to straighten them out and flip Belinda over onto the mat to escape. This was going to be tough but the tigress was giving it her all to escape this painful hold.

[Devastated]

Belinda would look over her shoulder as she had locked in this tight Boston Crab. Checking in on Tina as she began to bend her back little by little with each passing second. More and more painful the longer Tina was trapped in it. " You holding out okay? Wanna tap?" Belinda jokingly exclaimed as she looked over her shoulder. She was pretty sure Tina wasn't going to give in...but didn't hurt to joke about it.

Suddenly though Tina with a show of force pushed up and then straightened out her legs. Sending Belinda off of her back and flying forward. The young blonde just barely had time enough to go into a roll by tucking her shoulder. She rolled away a bit and quickly scrambled up onto her knees facing Tina. "Phew...not bad at all."

[Highfly]

Tina got up and looked up at Belinda staring right through her. "What did you expect?" Tina said before moving in. Leaping toward Belinds and swinging her knee up to try to crash knee first into the chest of her opponent!

[Devastated]

Belinda rolled away and got up to her knees, turning around to face Tina and as she saw her foe had already made herself up to a standing point, Belinda hurried to rise to her feet. Though Tina closed the distance to her and came in with that knee, smashing it right into her chest which caused Belinda to stagger back a step. Coughing out as she brought her hands up to cover it to try and avoid Tina nailing her there again.

[Highfly]

Tina struck again and reached out, trying to reach Belinda. The tigress was trying to wrap an arm around Belinda's head as she attempted to fall back in an effort to spike Belinda's head to the mat with a DDT!
