Middleweight Championship Match: Lillian Byrne vs. "Tigress" Tina Armstrong (c)

[Highfly]

After pulling off the counter the aching Tina stumbled back up to her feet, glaring at Lillian. She made her way over and grabbed Lillian by the head, moving her away from the cage a small distance. Tina tried to put her in position for a double undertook suplex but she wasn't aiming Lillian towards the center of the ring. Instead Tina was hell bent on trying to lift Lillian up and take a page out of Lillian's playbook.... smashing Lillian into the cage with the double undertook suplex! "Okay bitch, this will teach you to sneak attack me with your little friends! This will teach you to start crap backstage with soccer moms!" Tina shouted, trying to exact revenge each time she inflicted pain on Lillian inside this cage.

After having her attempt at a powerbomb turned against her, Lillian was in quite a daze, stumbling away from Tina to try and clear her head, though she wasn't able to do so before the Tigress recovered, approaching from behind and quickly hooking both of Lillian's arms! And from there, Tina would yank Lillian over towards the cage wall, before flinging the brunette woman up and over, sending her smashing into the steel cell that surrounded the ring with a brutal move!

"AUGH! Fuck... you fuckin bitch... I never needed those losers, and I never needed to go after your geriatric partner... I've always been better than you..." Lillian hissed after collapsing to the mat, in a bad position, but not about to let the pain her body stop her from throwing venom filled words at Tina, doing her best to piss the champion off!

[Highfly]

Tina heard enough. Even though Lillian was down the tigress wanted to keep her there! Tina pulled Lillian by the hair, yanking her up into a seated position with her head resting against the cage. After backing off a few steps Tina screamed as she rushed forward, trying to leap knee first to smash Lillian in the face while her head rest against the cage!

After being slammed against the steel cage, Lillian was left floored as her vision swam, Tina having left her rocked on the mat, something that the brunette was none too happy about, though she couldn't do anything from her current position. Still, it didn't stop her from running her mouth, perhaps to her detriment, as she flung vicious insults at Tina and her mentor from the floor, something that really pissed the Tigress off, with Tina reaching down to yank her up to a seated position against the cage!

"Nnnngh... you fu- NNGH!" Lillian cried out, about to fling another insult Tina's way when the champion suddenly executed her next move, charging forwards and throwing a knee right into Lillian's head! The brutal strike caught Lillian, and with nowhere for her to move with her head against the steel cage on the other side, Lillian took the knee flush, immediately slumping to the mat, looking completely limp!

[Highfly]

Tina put everything she had crushing Lillian's skull. When the bigger woman went limp Tina grabbed her ankles and dragged her away from the ropes before quickly going for a cover! "Come on ref, I took the garbage out lets get this over with!" Tina screamed as she slapped the mat in anger, waiting for the referee to get in to place. Tina was laying across Lillian's chest with a leg hooked, confident that she knocked the woman out.

"ONE!"

The count began and Tina nodded with it, hoping that she was on her way to a solid dominant showing inside a cage against a ruthless woman like Lillian!

[ADarlingDucky]

Flopping to the mat with a grunt, Lillian was damn near motionless after Tina had nailed her with a knee to the head up against the cage, things beginning to look like the challenger had been abruptly stopped by the absolutely ruthless strike! And it would further that belief in the fans when Tina grabbed hold of Lillian's limp frame and yanked her away from the cage wall and out to the middle of the ring, laying across Lillian and hooking a leg as the ref counted one, quickly moving on!

"TWO!"

However, right as it looked like Tina was about to take the victory...

"THR- NO!"

"GAH!" Lillian gave a sudden jerk as the ref's hand was about to come down for a final count, jolting to life and shoving hard on instinct to push Tina off her, staying in the match even though it looked like she was knocked clean out!

[Highfly]

Tina felt herself roll off Lillian, a look of total shock on her face! "No way! No!" Tina said as she shook her head, getting back up to her feet. She tried to grab hold of Lillian again, intent on ending the woman right now. She shoved Lillian's head between her legs and grabbed her by hooking her arms. "Time to put her down for good!" Tina shouted as she grit her teeth, clearly putting Lillian in position for a tiger bomb! Tina was hell bent on crushing this woman, having a more personal reason for winning this title defense than any other match she had ever been in! Lillian attacked her, attacked Alaina and had to be shown that being brutal never made up for being smart or skilled! Tina just had to win. If she blew it now she wasn't sure she could look at herself in the mirror afterward.

[ADarlingDucky]

While she had indeed managed to kick out of Tina's pin, Lillian was still far from okay at the current moment, her vision swimming as she tried to roll over and get to her hands and knees after forcing the tigress off of her, with Tina in shock that she even kicked out! However, her surprise didn't keep her from acting, and soon enough she would reach down and grab hold of Lillian by the head, yanking the brunette girl up to her feet before tugging her head between the champ's thighs, reaching down to snag Lillian's arms and lock them behind her back, setting up for her finisher!

The brunette gave a low groan as she was shifted into position, but while Tina began to lock her arms behind her back, Lillian was feeling that she was being put into a dangerous position, which she wanted no part of! So with a sudden growl, Lillian would summon whatever strength she still had despite the daze she felt in order to suddenly straighten up, aiming to lift and flip Tina over her for a back body drop!

[Highfly]

Tina felt Lillian lift and struggled to keep her hold although her feet were lift off the ground! This proved to be a huge mistake as Tina was flipped over Lillian but at a different angle resulting in her landing hard right on her head and neck! Tina let out a loud groan as she crashed to the mat, crumpling and rolling to her side. She cradled her head in her arms, kicking the mat in pain as the back body drop coupled with the awkward landing left her totally dazed! Pain shot down her neck while her head throbbed from the impact. She would be fine soon but she doubted that Lillian would be generous enough to give her the time to recover!

[ADarlingDucky]

Realizing the danger that she was in, Lillian mustered all the strength that she currently had in order to stand straight up and lift Tina overhead, dropping the champion behind her back and right onto her head and neck, flooring the tigress and saving herself from eating a finisher! With Tina down, Lillian had a moment to herself, and the challenger would put her hands on her knees and take a few ragged breaths, shaking her head slightly to try and get rid of the haze that clouded her vision, a ringing in her ears, but finding herself slowly recovering!

Turning her head slighly, she took a look at the sprawled out champion, glaring down at her as she cleared her head, already thinking of all the different things she wanted to do to the champion!

"What's wrong? Not so mouthy now... are ya?" Lillian growled, ready to pay Tina back for each and every thing that the tigress had said and done to her so far! And the challenger would start to do so as she approached the downed Tina, leaping up before aiming to come down and drive her elbow right into the champ's chest for a quick elbow drop!
