El Matador y la Muerte: Arturo Hernandez vs Skullface

[Underdoggo]

Ryuji grinned as his follow up attack sent Arturo sprawling. With his opponent now facedown on the ring, Ryuji wasted no time in snatching his hidden nunchucks from under the ring. Giving them a casual twirl as he followed after Arturo, Ryuji shoved the other man over onto his back with his foot, and brought the nunchaku down--

Wait, when the hell did Arturo get a steel pipe?

That was the question that rang through Ryuji's mind just before the pipe slammed hard into his side, even as the blunt ends of the nunchaku slammed down against Arturo's chest. Grunting from the blow, Ryuji was sent staggering sideways, sprawling against the metal barrier and breathing hard as he clutched his side stunned by Arturo's sneaky counter attack. "G...gah...w-what the fuck..."

[ScylliasExoter]

Arturo gritted his teeth in pain as the nunchucks slammed into his chest. But his steel pipe did the trick and staggered Ryuji to the barricade. Arturo got up and swaggered over to him. With his right hand he raised Ryuji’s chin up, wound his arm up, and delivered a stinging knife edge chop to Ryuji’s chest. After milking it for the crowd, Arturo delivered a few more chops. He then grabbed Arturo off the barricade and attempted to Irish whip him into the ring steps.

[Underdoggo]

Ryuji was breathing hard after taking that steel pipe to the chest. Thankfully, as far as he was aware, nothing was broken, but it didn't change that that had freaking hurt. He honestly hadn't expected a handsome, dashing hero type like Arturo to go for a cheap move like that: he was starting to like the Spaniard a lot more already.

His like for him diminished a little again, however, as Arturo reared up and deliver a stinging knife edge blow to Ryuji's chest, sending him further against the barricade. Ryuji gasped a hiss of pain with each stinging chop, and then suddenly his arm was grabbed, and Ryuji went flying. The ring steps came to meet him, and he went tumbling over them before sprawling in a heap on the ring floor, groaning.

[ScylliasExoter]

Arturo throughly enjoyed punishing Ryuji outside the ring. Fortunately for Skull, he couldn’t win there. However Arturo wasn’t done softening up his foe. He grabbed Ryuji’s arm and pulled him to his feet. Arturo then wrapped his arms around Ryuji’s torso and brought him in chest to chest for a hug. Arturo wasted no time in winding up and then attempting to launch Ryuji with a belly to belly suplex!

[Underdoggo]

Skullface was severely on the defensive now, clutching his hurting midsection after he had collided, all too bodily, with the ring steps. The impact left him moaning as he rolled on the ring floor, and Arturo approaching him, looking to punish him some more.

Very quickly, Skullface found himself being levered back up to his feet. In an instant, he felt Arturo's arms enclosing around his waist, pressing him in tightly. Hot, Ryuji thought, though he remained focused on the match: he knew Arturo was going to go for a belly to back suplex, so he would attempt to thwart it by pressing a palm against Arturo's face, sneakily trying to gouge a thumb into Arturo's eye to make him let go. If he succeeded, then he would waste no time in grabbing the back of Arturo's head and slamming him face-first against the side of the ring.

Of course, if he failed, then he would simply end up eating that suplex and be left groaning even more...

[ScylliasExoter]

Arturo was sure he had Ryuji, but the crafty phantom thief had other plans. Arturo had him wrapped up for the suplex, but a quick thumb to the eye broke the hold. Arturo didn’t have time to react as Ryuji grabbed the back of his head and slammed it into the ring apron. Arruro cried out in pain and was momentarily stunned.

[Underdoggo]

The crowd boo'd as Ryuji gouged at Arturo's eye. He let them boo, content to be the bad guy as he rammed Arturo head-first into the side of the ring. As the Spaniard was left stunned, Ryuji remained conscious that the two of them were still being counted out. Without wasting any time, he grabbed for Arturo's wrist and the edge of his tights, and rolled him into the ring, before rolling in after him.

Rolling back in, Skullface would cup his hands together and bring them slamming down across Arturo's back with an axe handle blow, before vindictively stomping on his back as he stood up. He wanted to keep Arturo down while he devised something more more mean to do to him next...

[ScylliasExoter]

Arturo found himself rolling into the ring. Unfortunately the previous few moments to breath were taken away by Ryuji's relentless assault. An axe handle blow on Arturo's back forced him prone. Skull then stomped Arturo mercilessly in the back. After the barrage, Arturo clutched his lower back and groaned in pain, unable to get up.

[Underdoggo]

The ref was getting in Ryuji's skull-clad face at this point, telling him to stop with the stomping. "What? Ref, my foot just slipped, that's all!" Ryuji protested. Trying to keep the ref's eyes on him, Ryuji would continue to protest. "Ref, seriously, I wasn't stomping him! And if I was, I swear, it was a total accident!"

All the while, of course, Ryuji would be pressing his booted foot down against Arturo's throat while the ref was distracted, slowly choking the life out of the handsome matador.

[ScylliasExoter]

”Joder! ¡¿Por que el lucha como yo?!” Arturo thought to himself as Ryuji was choking him with his boot. Arturo kicked and stomped to no avail as the oblivious ref argued with Skull. It was strange that the crowd was pulling for Arturo. Not that it mattered. His vision darkened around the edges until he suddenly blacked out. Fortunately for him, the ref didn’t see it, but he was briefly incapacitated and helpless against whatever Ryuji had next.
