Apex Qualifier Match
Rosie Knuckles vs. Aphrodite
Match Type: Standard Match
Rules: The winner must pin, submit, or knock out her opponent to win.

Skulls by Halestorm hit as the arena went dark. Rosie Knuckles came out as the spotlight shone on her to a loud reaction of cheers and boos. The cute, pinkette brawler stood in her typical attire, holding up a fist with a mean look on her face as she soaked in the reaction before throwing her fist forward and pounding her chest, letting out a loud roar to amp up the crowd further. She didn't care whether they loved her or hated her; Rosie just wanted to hear them get loud for her.

She then walked down the ramp with her fist held high, ready for another Apex Qualifier match where she got to tear apart another opponent. She was rough, hardcore, and it certainly contrasted her rather adorable appearance with a single glare. Walking to the steps, Rosie would then pound on them a few times before throwing her arms in the air to get another loud reaction from the audience. Then, she would jog up them until stepping through the ropes and walking towards the opposite corner. There, she would ascend to the middle rope throw her arm up in the air once more and start shouting at the crowd again.

Finally, Knuckles would hop down off the turnbuckle and then begin some last minute stretches as she waited for her opponent to come out. She was absolutely ready to get out there and fight--easily seen by the big smirk on her face, ready to get right to the action.

After failing in her previous Apex Qualifier match against a certain fatty bee (though she protested her to be some sort of wasp), having taken a bit to recover from such a horrific ending during that match. This time however, she would win, there could be no way that she could lose a second time, the supposed goddess of love would rip her opponent to shreds and take a victory after so long a struggle. That struggle would pay off, she knew it had to as she got out from the gorilla position to the stage, letting the lights shine upon her body as she stood, having adjusted herself her white elbow and knee pads before she got out of the locker room to be ready.

She'd pose for the crowd as she stood center stage, a very provocative looking display as her attire, a revealing bikini that showed off her body. Aphrodite would soon find herself walking down the ramp in a strut as they announced her name, white toeless socks padded to protect them against the hard surface of what she walked over towards the ring. She could spot Roxie waiting for her in the ring, a rough looking figure that would no doubt make things difficult, but she expected herself to triumph over such a barbaric figure. Why not? Her beauty could triumph over such foolish opponents.

"Roxie I presume?" she says as she dips into the ring, slowly. She was taking her time building up the crowd, liking the more positive reaction she was getting. The fight against Honie may have been a loss, but it still brought her some publicity for the attempt at the larger wrestler. She was checked over by the referee, rolling her neck as she waited for them to begin.

Rosie Knuckles watched Aphrodite come to the ring and then began pacing the length of the ring as she stretched. She got the gist of who she was with a simple glance and didn't need to see anymore. So she stretched those muscles and rolled those limbs to keep them limber before she settled back to her corner as her opponent got into the ring.

Then, Aphrodite had called her Roxie, and Rosie's eye twitched at she stared at her and her gaze narrowed. Letting out a soft groan, she began to walk towards the middle of the ring... and then kept walking as the referee was checking in with Aphrodite. And when the Pink-Haired Pugilist got to the pair of women, she grabbed hold of the referee and shoved her away and then threw a hard right fist directly towards her would-be opponent's face, aiming to crack her with a sucker punch before the match even began!

Who knew that Aphrodite, who had only assumed that Rosie's name was Roxie, would soon trigger a chain of events that the fans could only watch with utter shock as the blonde watched her opponent approach, "Hey loser, why don't you wait while the referee does their work. I have plenty of time to... hey, what are you..." she says before suddenly finding a fist smashing into her face, right across the nose and making her fall backwards, legs turning to jelly as she was surprised by her punch. Aphrodite would fall back against the ropes, as holding to her face as she cried out.

"You bitch!" she spoke, still shaking herself off as she hobbled back to her feet, a slight nasally sound in her voice as she wasn't prepared to take such a strong hit. She was mad now, not stopping to do her whole goddess schtick, "You want to go, well bring it on!"

[Dubski]

Rosie's well-practiced fist found Aphrodite's nose immediately and she saw her fall back. The referee came back, yelling at Knuckles as she just glowered at the poor official and said, "Just ring the fucking bell." The referee complied, signaling the start of this match up as Rosie put her attention back on her blonde opponent, who was getting back to a solid footing and telling Rosie to bring it on.

The cute brawler rolled her eyes and her head in an exaggerated manner and the moment she stopped talking, Rosie was back on the attack again. She didn't need to reply yet; she let her fists do any retorting. Coming in with a left uppercut, she would follow up by ducking down and throwing a right jab towards Aphrodite's stomach, then rise with two more right hooks towards her face and then left haymaker for good measure. Rosie didn't know if she'd hit everything, but she wanted to at the very least put the fear in this girl early on, since the first blow clearly didn't give her enough of an attitude check.

"You want a fight you disgusting ruffian than have at you! Aprhodite cursed her out in a mild way as the bell actually rung, her nose still nasally from being struck. She was already seething with anger after being struck, still upset over the punch and not knowing the actual cause being her saying her name wrong. She still mistakenly believed her opponent's name was indeed Roxie, likely something that would be an even worse element of contention between the match would go underway, Aphrodite coming at her foe as a kickboxer would, hands up and raised but a slight wrestling element as the two met.

She dove back from the uppercut, feeling the air between the two be altered by the strong fist before having to quickly block low with an arm. One would be blocked while the other would meet flesh, knocking her back before she had to then block the last two strikes. This girl was a brawler and likely could take strikes like this and dish them out all day, it was up to Aphrodite to stop that, watching as the haymaker came at her. This was time to show what a goddess like herself could do, moving aside before sending a kick straight to the right leg with her own left in hopes to hobble her enough for what she was to do next. If she could get close enough in, she bet she could grapple this girl down to nothing and so quickly would attempt to pull her into a clinch if she managed to get in.

Rosie Knuckles went forward with her combination attack, managing to hit Aphrodite in her stomach. It looked like her opponent had some talent in boxing. The Pink-Haired Pugilist could sense the girl's style was more akin to a kickboxer's. It was definitely not her first time encountering kickboxers. It just made things a little more different. For instance, Aphrodite had managed to kick her on the inside of her leg, sending her kneeling to one knee with a grunt.

And then she felt Aphrodite grab her in a clinch, which Rosie also mimed from her lowered position, groaning loudly. "Ruffian? Disgusting? Ruffian? Stop giving me reasons to want to kick your ass!" shouted Rosie, shooting herself up with a burst of anger from what she considered lame insults as she threw a knee towards Aphrodite's midsection once more, focusing on the one spot she had already hit her before and figuring she could follow up on that damage.

[SimplyMoon]

"I'll call you whatever you want!" she calls out at her, the match getting fierce as the crowd watched on with their close quarter slug fest, striking each other ruthlessly to do as much damage as possible. The leg kick was enough to hobble the goddess's opponent, but the knee strike that she would then suffer in turn was enough to knock the air out of her lungs as the two were in the clinch. Aphrodite would fall forward against Rosie, gritting her teeth as she tried to push her up against the ropes. If Rosie wanted to play this game, whom she still though was named Roxie, she'd pay back in response.

Bringing her head back, she'd deliver a judgment of Olympus upon her, attempting to smash her own head against Rosie in a headbutt. Of course, it was a dangerous move to perform, a desperate attack or one for more powerful and larger wrestler, but Aphrodite was doing it out of pure anger. This was for getting punched earlier before the match had even begun.

Rosie's knee had hit Aphrodite hard in her gut, forcing the blonde to stumble right into her. Knuckles was ready to shove her away and send a fist into her face right there, but her opponent used that momentum to grab her and start pushing her back into the ropes. Rosie growled and tried to push back, but she was caught off guard and backed away! "Call me whatever you want so long as it's from this century, freakshow!" exclaimed Rosie.

She was responded to with a headbutt, making Knuckles sling her arm over the top rope as her legs went out from under her. She gripped on the top rope to keep her from tumbling down entirely as she held her skull. Rosie was certainly no stranger to headbutts, and was known to regularly apply them herself in match ups, but that didn't make it hurt any less. She did scowl though, making her displeasure known as she held onto the rope to keep from falling over, momentarily stunned from that sudden shot.

[SimplyMoon]

The strike was quick and deliberate, a move of which that could easily take both of them out for a spell, left stunned after Aphrodite had gone near nuclear and slammed her forehead down upon her opponent's own with a headbutt. It would hurt like Hell, though mostly for her opponent as the supposed goddess stumbled back and away from Rosie, holding to her sore noggin'. This had become serious as distaste between them had grown far from the normal and rather quickly. This was war now and Aphrodite was willing to take steps to win at all costs. She wouldn't lose again.

With a quick a motion, the goddess would turn around towards the ropes oppose that Rosie was holding on to and dash towards them. She'd rebound off them, turning around before dashing right at her opponent. With a tremendous leap and turn, she'd try to strike Rosie while she was recovering with a hip attack aimed square at the face, showing off her amazing acrobatic ability. She was gonna show this brute she was more than just a pretty face and give her a taste of her behind.
