Main Event - Astrid Ostberg (c) vs "Amazon" Alaina Sanders vs "Super Kitty"Kat Hart for the LAW Heavyweight Championship

[Highfly]

Kat came at Alaina first and sent some hard punches into the amazon! Alaina staggered back and stumbled before recovering as her torso took some hard shots that made her whole body spasm. She had some nasty damage there for sure but Alaina used the pain and let out a loud scream stepping back up and swinging back at Kat as hard as she could looking to relentlessly hammer into the woman! She knew she had a big bullseye, black and blue instead of red like a dart board, on her mid-section. However Alaina was here to show that she was still champion material even on a super roster at this age. "Just because I probably broke a rib or three and am almost 50 doesn't mean I will be pushed around like some afterthought even by wrestlers as good as the two of you!" Alaina shouted as her barrage of strikes returned fire. She was aiming for body shots of her own with fast jabs to the face mixed in and Alaina wanted to cap with an uppercut square to the jaw looking to lay out Kat. She knew that was a task easier said than done but she couldn't let herself lose this exchange even in her current state.

Also she knew that Astrid was right there. She didn't think Astrid would interrupt until the end but she had to account for the champion herself. Astrid was a beast of a woman and even if Alaina won this exchange the champion had a 47 year old challenger with a clearly screwed mid-section right in front of her...

Alaina was hurting, but at this point, each woman in this match had her fair share of wear and tear! Kat had forced herself up to try and contest Alaina. The two traded blows back and forth! Kat let out a battle cry at the same time that Alaina did! The two met each other blow for blow! But in much the same way that Kat was made to realize that she'd have a rough time working through Astrid's boundless endurance, she was made to realize that outboxing The Amazon, even at her age and at this point in her career, was no small feat!

"GUH!" Alaina managed to land a decisive blow to the body, jabbing the luchadora in her bare, exposed, chiseled abdomen to stun her!

Alaina had a gnarly bruised side. But in her current state after just having contended back and forth with Astrid, Kat was in no shape to target it even if she wanted to! Alaina's fist sank into the luchadora's core! Several more jabs followed, each one uncontested! Until Sanders finished it up by swinging her fist upwards to deck the masked contender in the jaw!

Kat's head would lift and jerk backward! She'd stagger back a couple of steps before losing her footing and going down in a heap! The crowd let out a mixture of cheers and shocked reactions as The Amazon found her way back into this match, making it a true triple threat again! And at Kat Hart's expense no less!

"Nghhhh...." Kat would lay there on her back near the center of the ring! She held her jaw with one hand. Hart had been laid out convincingly! And while Super Kitty fans were distraught, the tension in the arena surged when it became clear that Alaina was still a force to be reckoned with in this match!

[CaptainL]

Now that Alaina was back in the ring, all bets were off! Even if the Amazon showed the wear and tear she had put herself through in this match, her body marked with bruises and her shoulders slumping under the fatigue, no one could doubt that she still believed she was capable of taking home the title, and she was still going to shoot for just that with everything she had in her - that much was clear, as she and Kat thundered toward each other, frantically trading blows! With each punch Alaina and Kat got in on each other, one third of the arena burst into cheers - though soon enough, the punches were coming so quickly no one was able to tell who had landed more on who! All anyone could tell was that, despite whatever damage these women might have taken, and how much they might have hurt, the intensity of the match wasn't anywhere close to slowing down!

One person who wasn't so quick to jump into the fray, however, was Astrid. She knew that as long as Kat and Alaina were tied up with their scuffle, she would have time to catch her breath. Both of them were worse for wear, compared to herself - Alaina from going over the ropes, and Kat from nearly being pinned under the Norsewoman's weight. That meant that if one of them took the other out of the picture, they would still be left as easy pickings for Astrid to capitalize on! Until then, she had the chance to stand by, rolling the ache out of her shoulders and wiping some sweat off her brow. But she looked up then to see Kat eat a hard-hitting uppercut that flung her off her feet, sending her crashing down in the middle of the ring - and immediately, Astrid knew what she had to do!

She wasted no time before she came charging back toward Alaina, quickly closing into range - she wasn't giving the veteran a moment to recover! Astrid would fling her forearms and elbows left and right, looking to pepper Alaina with blows to steer her back toward the corner, and there, she would cap everything off with an uppercut of her own aimed right at Alaina's chin!

[Highfly]

Alaina had floored Kat but no sooner had that happened than Astrid came charging at her swinging away! Alaina blocked and tried to swing back as hard as she could but after having just been slugging it out with Kat this was proving less effective than the amazon had hoped! As she neared the corner Alaina tried to swing back harder again, not giving in even though this seemed like a losing battle. The amazon would be pressed back against the ropes and in a last ditch effort to salvage her situation she grabbed the top ropes and coiled her legs into her chest thrusting them right into Astrid hoping to get her to hit the mat or at least stumble back.

If successful Alaina would take a couple breaths before rushing right at Astrid, hoping that she was dazed enough for Alaina to outright run her over with a shoulder block to send her crashing down to he mat! However if this didn't work Alaina running at Astrid left her open quite a bit....

[CaptainL]

It was just as Astrid had anticipated - after just coming off from a pitched battle against Kat, Alaina wasn't ready to have to contend with the Norsewoman running in swinging right away! Alaina was still weary from the landing she had taken, and she was winded from the beating she'd taken at the luchadora's hands. But Astrid had been biding her time. She was fresher, she was ready - and she wasn't going to give Alaina a chance to catch her breath before she was thrust back into the action!

The blonde got a couple of well-placed blows off against her rival, each one sending Alaina cracking backward! Alaina was trying to keep up, holding her arms up to block and trying to trade Astrid back in turn - but when she was as winded as she was, Astrid found it a lot easier to weave around each incoming blow, dodging and ducking out of the way. Even the strikes that did hit didn't hit so hard, whether it was from Alaina's own fatigue, or the rising adrenaline rush pushing Astrid onward - either way, she wasn't slowing down! Astrid was sure victory was in sight, and she was ready to reach out and take it! Her heart was pounding faster, and a smirk crossed her face. She was sure Alaina was only moments from crumpling!

But just as Astrid drew her arm back to land another swift chop across Alaina's chest, suddenly, the Amazon grabbed hold of the ropes, pulling herself in. And then, at the very same moment Astrid let that chop fly, it came straight into the path of Alaina's lunge, bouncing right off of her legs as she kicked back in the champion's direction! Driven back from the force of the impact, Astrid had no choice but to go stumbling backward toward the center of the ring. Thanks to the timing of their strikes, her arm had taken the brunt of the hit, keeping Alaina's counter from hitting her as hard as it could have. She remained on her feet, but nevertheless, Astrid was steered backward; her knees buckled as she sank lower, and she rubbed at her arm to try and dull the aches that rippled along it from where Alaina's feet had struck, her teeth clenched in a grimace. And the crowd went up in a cheer at the sight of such a well-executed counter - it stood as proof that Alaina still had this in her!

Alaina wasn't about to stop there, either. She had Astrid staggered, and now, she was on the move, charging straight toward the Norwegian with her shoulder extended to ram into her! Astrid looked up to see Alaina hurtling closer, and she grew tense, her muscles locking up and her heels digging into the mat. With the spring of the ropes behind her, she was closing in at an incredible speed, especially given her fatigue. Astrid would need to act quickly. But...she was ready for that!

Suddenly, just as Alaina came closer, Astrid reached forward and grabbed her, halting her in mid-stride! If the fans were cheering for Alaina's comeback already, they would only cheer even louder when Astrid matched that with a counter of her own! Looking over at Alaina with a confident smile, the Norsewoman's fingers tightened around her opponent, holding her securely in place. "Almost got me there..." she huffed, "but...it's not over just yet!"

With that, Astrid bent at the knees, drawing on the momentum to hoist Alaina up into the air! If she was successful, Astrid would look to ram her straight downward as she dropped to one knee and kicked up the other one, trying to hit an over-the-knee backbreaker!

[Highfly]

Alaina was on the verge of taking Astrid down and building momentum but again as she charged Astrid grabbed hold and lift her up and brought the charging amazon crashing down on her bruised injured mid-section across her knee! "AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Alaina howled as she seemed to go limp and lifeless. The amazon flopped down onto the mat gasping for breath shaking her head.

Kat was down and Astrid was standing over her. Alaina shook her head and slapped the mat, letting out a guttural roar as she struggled, swaying and staggering as she pushed herself up to her feet! "Come on Astrid, COME ON!" Alaina shouted as she tried to swing some punches into Astrid's body and face to hopefully catch her off guard. Alaina had next to no success against Astrid in this match continuing the general trend of Alaina failing against this woman. She was going to try to scoop Astrid up and slam her down.... then deadlift her up and do a backbreaker of her own! Her torso was screaming at this point but Alaina knew if this match failed her whole comeback would be a failure. She knew she was the underdog and that if she lost this title shot in connection to her losing the final of the heavyweight title tournament years ago she would likely never be seen as a title threat for this championship again.

[CaptainL]

Astrid's fingers clenched tightly around Alaina, holding onto her with a defiant grip. Her teeth grit together in a snarl as the muscles in her arms popped and bulged. While Kat and Astrid were new to each other, Astrid had known Alaina a long time. She had looked up to her in her childhood, and the Amazon had been her inspiration for becoming the champion she was today. She still had plenty of respect for her opponent in how she had paved the way for women to secure their rightful place in the wrestling world, and in the effort and determination she put into her work even in her age. But she knew that Alaina had been a close rival to her as well - at every turn, she had been after Astrid's title, and her place of power in the company and the business as a whole. Alaina, no doubt, was all the more motivated to take Astrid's title away from her right now; she was closer than she ever was before to achieving her dream. Which meant that Astrid had to go the extra mile to keep her down!

Throwing her head back to belt out a battle cry, Astrid slammed her opponent right into the path of her raised knee! When Alaina dropped straight down onto the backbreaker, the sound of a crack rang out, enough to make several fans in the crowd wince at the thought of how hard such a blow must have hit. Astrid wasted no time in shoving Alaina off, then leaned in closer, prepared to drop down on top of her and move in for the pin. She was all but convinced that Alaina would have been taken out by this. She was already softened up from the assault she'd endured, and Astrid's backbreaker would surely be enough to do just about anyone in. But before Astrid could even throw herself off her feet, Alaina threw a few punches back her way!

Caught off guard, the Norsewoman gasped, stumbling back up to her feet as she raised her arms in an attempt to shield herself from the incoming blows. Alaina might not have been at her peak power right now, but Astrid had been taken by surprise by the swiftness of her comeback, and more to the point, she was all the more emboldened to strike back when the title hung in the balance! A few of her strikes did reach the Norsewoman, battering her left and right, but she still remained on her feet. But even if she did, that was good enough for Alaina. It meant that Astrid was in position for her to close in - and to grab her for a scoop slam!

The canvas rumbled as Astrid touched down, coughing and sputtering as the air was driven from her lungs. But Alaina still wasn't done - just after that, she picked Astrid right back up to land a backbreaker of her own! This time, Astrid came down atop her knee with the sound of a crunch, and her head reeled back as she let out a scream, her back erupting in pain. Once again, there were those who winced at the pain Astrid must have endured. But just as many were cheering Alaina on - she was making a comeback, fighting through unbelievable odds!

Astrid panted for breath, taking in a few hoarse gasps to try and refill her lungs. Her eyes were narrowed in a piercing glare, aimed back up at Alaina. Now, the Amazon was giving her a run for her money. But...Astrid wouldn't have expected any less from her, either! She knew how tough Alaina could be; now, the motivation she needed to win was in front of her more than ever, and it was bringing her best efforts out! Astrid would truly have a challenge ahead of her. But, moments later, she smiled. This was the sort of match she'd always dreamed of! This was Alaina at her best - and to share the ring with such an Alaina was an honor!

"There's that spirit in you..." she said with a nod. "You're really playing for keeps! Then if that's what you want...give it to me! I'll take it!"

Alaina might have been making a promising comeback, but Astrid wasn't about to go down easy, either. She saw that Alaina had raised the bar, and she too would rise to meet it! She knew that with Alaina so driven, it would be too dangerous to lay around open and vulnerable. No matter how much her back hurt, or how much she hissed and snarled from the pressure, Astrid had to get away. She went to roll backward away from her opponent, looking to get a safe distance away before she would try and push herself up from the mat. As she did, she would keep a close eye on Alaina, watching her for any sudden moves.

[Highfly]

Astrid was back up and Alaina moved in, not wanting to waste time. Kat was down, taken by surprise by Alaina moments ago. She had to use this window of opportunity to get to Astrid. What she wanted to do was return the favor earlier and military press the blonde bombshell sending her crashing to the mat but no way that would work now with Astrid too able to reverse it as she is at the moment. She had more to do.

Alaina was the old lady with a dark colors mid-section from that landing, and her movements were a bit labored no matter how hard she fought through the pain. The constant twisted look of pain on her face said it all. She had to try to catch Astrid by surprise. Alaina had an idea that was either going to pay off and send Astrid to the mat or it would leave her wide open to face more devastating offense.

With a loud shout Alaina moved in, swinging her body around and leg up aiming a roundhouse kick right at Astrid's head! She planned on Astrid ducking or grabbing the kick. If Astrid ducked Alaina was going to carry her momentum through aiming a second spinning roundhouse kick at Astrids head hoping that it would connect! If Astrid grabbed it, then Alaina would jump and twist hitting an enziguri instead! She hopped her putting all her strength into this and kicking the side of Astrid's head would send her collapsing to the canvas. However if Astrid blocked or dodged the second follow up attack then the amazon would find herself in an incredibly compromised position!

[CaptainL]

Alaina had been out of this match long enough. She had let Kat and Astrid take center stage, both of them trading blows and both of them scoring a few close calls on one another. But she was going to make a point to prove that she was far from finished - and when she came back in, she came in swinging! No matter if she might have been past her prime compared to her two younger competitors, no matter if she was still fighting off the aches in her midsection...Alaina had her eyes on the prize. She was closer than ever to taking home the championship she had been aiming for since the very inception of LAW as a company! That motivation was all she needed to light a fire beneath her, awakening her deepest desires to go the extra mile, and secure her triumph - and it was Astrid who was now left to contend with that fury in Alaina!

The Norsewoman would have to stay on her toes. No matter how much Alaina seemed less favored to win in comparison to herself or Kat, no matter how much the match seemed stacked against her, Astrid didn't underestimate what the Amazon was capable for even a minute. She knew Alaina well - well enough to know how strong she truly was, especially when she was putting her heart into the match as much as she was now! Indeed, no sooner had she looked up from the ground that Astrid saw Alaina's leg coming sweeping toward her, aimed right for her head! She let out a gasp, her eyes going wide as a shudder ran through her body just anticipating the force behind such a blow. Astrid wouldn't have time to get back up - she needed to save herself!

Thinking quickly, the blonde's hands shot up to protect herself, blocking Alaina's leg before it could hit its mark. Her fingers flexed, grasping the veteran's well-toned calf. Sucking in a breath and gritting her teeth, Astrid pushed up on Alaina's leg at the same time as she pushed her feet off the mat. In this way, she would attempt to force her way to her feet, and hopefully, the same motion with which she moved would sweep Alaina off her footing and send her crashing down as their center of balance was reversed. The muscles in Astrid's arm bulged as she pushed at Alaina's leg with all her might...but, little did she know, she wasn't making headway against her foe at all. In fact, Alaina was expecting this!

Just then, the Amazon kicked off the ground, spinning herself around in an arc - and driving her other leg into the back of Astrid's head! It landed with a crack, sending the champion reeling as her grip on Alaina's leg slipped and her back buckled inward. Crying out in pain, Astrid fell forward, crashing into the canvas with enough force to send it shaking! She rolled from side to side, clutching at her temples in a desperate attempt to dull the aches pounding at her skull. The crowd sent out a cheer - it was incredible that Alaina could move like this. But with the offer of the title looming over her head, she was all the more encouraged to reach for the stars!

[Highfly]

Alaina sent Astrid down to the mat and pumped a fist and shouted. "Yeah! Nothing is stopping the amazon!" Alaina said as she stood over Astrid. Kat was still down and even though Alaina was hurt she needed to demonstrate that she wasn't out of it or making some last-ditch run before collapsing. The amazon bent down, grabbing hold of Astrid. Alaina screamed and shouted as she exerted herself deadlifting Astrid off the canvas and up into the air, shaking and trembling as she lift her entirely overhead locking out her arms straight up! Alaina pressed up and down a couple times to show off before tossing Astrid up as high as she could sending the champion crashing down to the mat with a deadlift gorilla press slam! That impact would echo and Alaina flexed her biceps as she was the only one standing at the moment in the ring!

She could feel the adrenaline and now wanted to keep it up against Astrid. She again wanted to show off while putting Astrid through some serious agony. Alaina pulled her up by the hair, bending down and lifting Astrid up across her shoulders. She wanted to lock in a painful torture rack on the Norwegian champion, applying all the pressure she could while bouncing around, showing off as Astrid was up at her mercy!
