Reiko Hinomoto vs Tina Armstrong

[TheManVan]

It was a while before Reiko began moving, rolling over onto her side as she tried to push herself back up. BUt instead she flopped right back down on the mat, gasping out as the count reach five. Reiko knew that she had to get back into the ring, the count was getting close to a ten as she stretched out her hand.

But that was as far as she got before she slumped back down on the mat, the ref's count continuing until... "TEN! Ring the bell!" the ref girl shouted as she ended the match, via count out!

It was rather crushing for Reiko, she could've accepted a loss by Tina beating her, but a draw had a special place for her meaning that she could've won if things played out a little differently. Clenching her fist, she chose to lay there a bit and tried to gather back her wind. But that didn't mean she was bitter towards Tina, it was a hard fought battle that ended on a little note.

Tina groaned and laid there as she heard the ten count. She stayed on her back looking over at Reiko. "You all right? I know I'm in a ton of pain but good all things considered." Tina said with a small, weak laugh.

She knew draws sucked. However she gave it her all and Reiko took everything Tina there at her. This wasn't the last time the two would face off, of that Tina was sure.

Anger at herself mostly was running through Reiko's body, just disappointment and frustration at herself for not being the wrestler she wanted to be. Feeling like she wasn't making any progress against all of these talented women. She was taken out of her stupor when she heard Tina's laugh as she looked up from staring at the mat.

She started to laugh with her opponent as she got to her knees. "Yeah...how are you doing?"

[Highfly]

"I am all right I think..." Tina answered back as she laid there trying weakly to roll over into her stomach. Tina groaned as she pushed off to get on her hands and knees crawling towards the ring apron. Tina reached up and pulled using it to slowly rose to her feet, trying not to look weak.

She was still a bit embarrassed that Reiko was able to storm back in and nearly win after Tina had taken the fight to her.

Reiko panted out as she managed to get back to her feet, beginning to make her way back to the entrance. It was a hard hit with the count out loss, "Next time, let's finish it in the ring...Don't think I'll be too proud with a count out draw to stop a rematch." she nervously chuckled as her hand gripped on the back of her head.
