Kyoko Akan (c) vs W Y V E R N for the LAW Middleweight Championship

[Fairy Dragon]

The two acted at the same time with Kyoko's feint working like a charm, Wyvern is caught without any chance to block or counter it. Instead she takes a punch to the face that rocks her chin and sends her stepping back for Kyoko to push her attack. The Belly Queen knows a golden moment when she sees one and steps in again while Wyvern was back pedaling to throw a palm strike to the chest.

There was no need for words here, Kyoko said what she needed and now she needed to take the challenger down. Her mind focused on the attack Kyoko would grab Wyvern's arm and try to pull her in and pull her head down. Keeping her close so that Kyoko could then pull her in close and lift her up for a snap suplex to bring her down to the mat.

[Hills]

Satisfied that she got the last word, Wyvern feels no need to continue the conversation. Riling up an opponent had a time and place, but right now she wanted to focus on the fight. Or, more accurately, needed to. The flow of the match had firmly gotten away from her, putting her in a serious disadvantage against her opponent. Years of experience enable her to keep her guard together even after being hit, so she's able to block Kyoko's palm strike with minimal damage. Her unstable footing stops her from properly resisting Kyoko's following pull, however, dragging her forward and into the champion's grip. Lacking the leverage to counter from this position, she can only go limp as she's flung overhead, loosening her body to mitigate the damage from the hard impact. Rattled but rapidly recovering, the challenger sits up almost immediately but isn't able to act with the same speed.

[Fairy Dragon]

Kyoko was wearing Wyvern down even if she wasn't hitting everything. Wyvern could keep blocking her strikes even when she was stunned, but not every move was as easy to counter, and Kyoko was still able to drop Wyvern with the snap suplex. Wyvern tried to get back up despite slowing down, the damage done to her keeping her from toughing through everything and Kyoko was behind her already standing up. Kyoko ran up to Wyvern while she was still sitting and tried to throw her back down with a somersault cutter. If that did the trick Kyoko would stand back up with Wyvern still on the ground and run to the ropes.

Kyoko ran back at Wyvern and would jump for a senton. Aiming right for the center of Wyvern's chest and landing back first on her if she didn't get out of the way. She wanted to keep Wyvern down and put a stop to her efforts to keep standing up to give Kyoko all the freedom she wanted to keep punishing her, and start working on that stomach she'd been unable to touch so far because of how counter quick Wyvern had been.

[Hills]

Wyvern is only barely able to sit up before being spiked back down into the ground, this time by a somersault cutter. While Kyoko's mouth was big and her ego was bigger, she was certainly backing it up. The variety of her offense exceeds anything Wyvern has seen before, and once the champion was able to move the match away from a striking contest the Irish wrestler had been put completely on the back foot. This second attack finally seems to do the trick, too, as this time Wyvern doesn't try to get up, giving Kyoko a chance to hit the ropes for an even stronger impact.

Letting up for even a second proves to be a mistake, however. As soon as the Belly Queen leaves the ground, she curls upward, going for a reversal instead of trying to dodge. When Kyoko lands, her back doesn't fall onto Wyvern's chest, but rather her knees! Painful enough already, the challenger isn't done yet. The instant Kyoko impacts, Wyvern snaps her arms up, looking to grab Kyoko by the neck and ankle in order to turn the position into a bow-and-arrow submission!

[Fairy Dragon]

Kyoko rushes to the ropes as fast as her body allows her too, putting on the pressure that you could expect from a champion trying to crush a challenger early. She runs back up the ring and at Wyvern to jump for her senton to land back first on top of her only to find Wyvern's raised her knees right before they met, saving herself from the move while allowing Kyoko to end up landing right on them instead. "Aaggh!" Kyoko gasps from the fall, her body jumping of Wyvern's knee as the pain spreads across her back, only for Wyvern to grab her and pull her back over them to keep her laying on the knee and stretching her out with a bow and arrow hold.

"Aaagghh!" Kyoko moaned, getting slightly louder the more her back was stretched out. She tried to shake her way out, resisting the hold as by turning her body to redice the pain or pulling to get her leg away or turn and get her head loose. Wyvern wasn't giving up any of them easily, turning her attempts to escape into another struggle for the champion.

[Hills]

Having successfully trapped her opponent for the moment, Wyvern painfully digs her fingers into Kyoko's flesh before cranking the bow and arrow hold a few times to stack up damage from it. After a few seconds, the Irish wrestlers surprisingly chooses to release her grip, letting go of Kyoko's ankle and pushing up with her legs at the same time to try and flip the taller wrestler off of her and onto her belly. The decisions provokes calls of disapproval from the crowd, who see only one combatant voluntarily allowing another out of her distress. But where the crowd sees mercy, even Kyoko's scant minutes against the Irish wrestler have been enough to know that whatever her motives, this is anything but.

After her effort to throw Kyoko off, Wyvern rolls in the opposite direction, coming to her hands and feet in a sprinter's crouch. With only a moment's effort, she aligns her body for the best starting force she can get. As soon as Kyoko starts to get upright, Wyvern explodes forwards! Kicking off the ground, she tries to take the Champion's head off with a Busaiku Knee Kick!

[Fairy Dragon]

Kyoko's body continued to bend in the painful submission hold that Wyvern had snagged her in. She felt the pain racking up across her spine as she was going further back, trying to free her ankle or her head to put an end to it before it got worse. Despite the progress she was making and almost being able to slip her ankle out of the hold, she was suddenly freed faster than she expected when Wyvern let go of her leg and used her head to toss her back and down to the mat. She landed on her stomach and groaned, her back still hurting but already feeling better now that she was free, but her mind went to ask why she was released so quickly and started to feel worried. She tried to sit up, and soon was eye level with a crouched Wyvern who was waiting for her to rise so she could rush her, going for a knee to the face. Kyoko couldn't move fast enough with her hurting back slowing her down, her attempt too turn failing and preventing her from escaping the Busaiku knee.

"Gaaggh!" Kyoko screamed, the champs head was pushed back, making the rest follow as Kyoko was knocked back to the mat. Landing back first while her hands would reach for her face and roll to her side, trying to dull the pain and recover after nearly getting knocked out by the force of that knee.

[Hills]

As Kyoko is forced back by the devastating Busaiku kick, Wyvern's gears begin to turn in planning the next phase of her assault before her back even hits the ground. Quickly regaining her feet, the Irish wrestler pushes the attack again, swinging one foot forward in an effort to punt Kyoko in the stomach. If the attack succeeds, the impact is actually minimal, even without taking into account the armorlike density of the Champion's abs. The reason for this becomes clear almost immediately; now in position, Wyvern digs her foot under her opponent and shoves, intending to send Kyoko rolling under the bottom ropes and off the edge of the ring onto the outside.

If Kyoko isn't able to stop Wyvern at any phase of her plan, the Irishwoman takes a moment to survey the ring before running back, hurling herself into the far ropes to gain momentum. Springing forward with all of her strength, Wyvern leaps over the top rope with as much force as she can muster, gaining impressive clearance as she tries to flatten the champion with a suicide senton!

[Fairy Dragon]

Kyoko's on her back still recovering when she starts getting a boot to her stomach to push her forward. "Nggh." Kyoko groaned pushing back, her abs weren't pepared but the kick was more of a push that brings her to the ropes. There Wyvern pokes her more with her foot until Kyoko is forced out of the ring, slipping off with her arms still around her face until she lands on her side. Kyoko coughed and turned again, the landing uncomfortable and forcing her to get back up, looking for Wyvern while being wary about taking any more knees to her face. Wyvern rushed her and jumped over the ring while Kyoko tried to to protect her head, and instead of a knee Wyvern would go for a suicide senton to crash into Kyoko.

"Aaggghh!" Kyoko screamed. Kyoko's arms were able to catch Wyvern, whose's body weight brought her down to her back with another painful landing. Wyvern mainly landed on her chest and winded the Queen while providing Wyvern a safer landing. The match spilled outside where things could get dangerous given who the two wrestlers were, given that Wyvern seemed to have a plan already.

[Hills]

Wyvern had more than proved her prowess as a fighter over the last moments of the match, reversing a disadvantageous position into a furious offensive that had sent the champion careening out of the ring! Each move planned in advance and delivered to potent effect. Indeed, the senton capping off her sequence of moves at first seems to be a final link in the chain, setting the dangerous wrestler up to continue her vicious assault on the Belly Queen now that they were on the even more dangerous ground of the outside.

At first.

For the first time, Wyvern shows that, for all of her skill, her age and lack of experience are still hindrances to her. As she slams into Kyoko, even with the larger wrestler cushioning her fall the Irishwoman lands at the wrong angle, and she coughs up a sharp breath as the impact blasts the air out of her lungs. Unable to act without her air supply, she rolls off of Kyoko and begins gasping to recover herself, potentialy giving the champion a gap in which to seize control of the match once more!
