Olympic Mashup - Carmen Rodriguez vs. Themis (D)

[TickTock]

Standard Match
Match may be won via pinfall or submission

Diana wasn’t sure if this was a very good decision for her PR; pro wrestling was a very mixed bag, where so many styles and personalities existed, and while it was regulated to an extent, it could very easily delve beyond what’s written in the rules. Especially in LAW, where lewdness and extremities often joined hands.

Yet she signed anyway. She was a fan, and knew of the talent that resided here, and knew she had to give it a chance. And already, she knew she was going to enjoy herself.

Diana’s gold medal was often listed in her accolades, but in her time since fighting and wrestling, she didn’t encounter anyone on such a caliber—until now. Carmen Rodriguez was her first opponent, and aside from her pro wrestling skill, she was also an Olympic-level boxer who won the silver medal and came very close to gold.

And while she had her experience with training bags and the occasional spar, Diana had never fought a boxer before, let alone one of such skill. While others may find it daunting, she personally found it exciting and it only reinforced her decision to sign on.

Making her entrance first, Diana took one deep breath before stepping through the curtain, becoming…

Themis, the Wonder Woman!

Spoiler

The crowd roared as red, blue, and yellow spotlights shown on the entranceway, stars littered the titantron with video of Themis’s photoshoot in her attire. “Wonder Woman” was a nickname given to her by fans and the media of her philanthropism, and thus she only found it fitting to embrace the nickname and make an attire fitting for it too. Flashy and somewhat revealing, but Themis enjoyed it, walking down the ring, high-fiving fans and flashing a smile.

Eventually reaching the ring, and walking up the steps before jumping over the top rope, Themis waved to her adoring public, and stood in the center of the ring with her bracelets crossed. Letting the cameras flash to capture the sight, before stepping back and looking towards the stage to witness her opponent coming out.

An Olympic medalist fighting a Greek woman. Someone on the booking committee thought they were being clever.

It didn’t make much difference to Carmen, really - Greece, Italy, Russia, who cared, she had fought women on every continent, every race. That alone didn’t pique her interest. She was more interested in the woman herself.

Themis. ‘Wonder Woman’.

It was quite a name to go by, she would give her that, and one that her fans seemed to relish in giving her. She’d heard nothing but good things about the woman, her philanthropy, her charity, and she seemed good…almost too good. In Carmen’s experience people like that were always trying to hide something.

She supposed it didn't matter, but it made for an interesting thought. One of many.

Carmen’s own

played a moment later and the woman herself promptly came through the curtain, dressed in her wrestling outfit - her

, dug out of the closet for this occasion. The crowd was receptive, as usual, but noticeably not quite as much as they had been when Diana came through - it was clear to see who was the favorite here. She wasn’t going to let that break her stride, wrestling wasn’t a popular contest despite what some people seemed to think. But it was worth noting.

She made her way down the ramp, up the stairs, and promptly brought her attention to the woman herself - tall, muscular, fit, perfect frame. If she had to guess, the two of them were about the same height and weight - maybe they’d put their muscle towards different things, but they’d both gotten amazing results.

Most importantly, though, was that look in her eyes. That was the look of a woman who was ready.

Carmen wasn’t much for overt displays of sportsmanship, but this time, she was feeling an exception. She made her way to the center of the ring and extended her fist. ”Let’s have a good match.”
