Ryu Hiroshi vs Misaki Toyoda

[Teenwrestler]

Having learned his lesson from their previous encounter, Ryu was out to prove that he was better than Misaki and this time he was not going to underestimate her at all. The male wrestler continued his strong start to this Apex match, trapping her in a dragon sleeper and body scissor combo. Ryu gritted his teeth, pulling her body backwards to stretch her while squeezing as tightly as he could. However, the Ace would refuse to give in and stay silent but clearly was in trouble and was struggling to escape the submission.

"It seems I need to do more to make you submit, Misaki-san" he said seriously. Ryu would shift the position of his arm to have his armpit press up against her face to smother her in a humiliating modified dragon sleeper dubbed the Dragon Smother. He would smother her while his legs continued to squeeze her in this rather humiliating submission.

"Misaki san o teishutsu shimasu ka? {Misaki-san, do you submit?}" he asked again.

[Arjuna]

Due to Misaki's refusal to submit, Ryu then went to put her into a more humiliating variation of the move, smothering her face under his arm. She squirmed as she tried her best to escape, though at the moment, all she could do was endure the hold and hope that her opponent would not be able to maintain it for long as she continued her struggling.

"MMGHHHH!!"

She tried rocking herself side to side, hoping to weaken her opponent's hold on her. She needed to escape this as she was unable to breathe due to her being smothered in the hold.

[Teenwrestler]

Really taking the fight to Misaki, the Dragon would switch the traditional dragon sleeper into a more humiliating and suffocating variant to smother the Ace with the use of his under arm. Misaki would gasp in surprise, struggling to breathe while trapped in the Dragon smother submission. She would begin to rock herself side to side and continue her struggling which caused the male wrestler to grit his teeth out in frustration. She would struggle harder and harder, forcing him to release the body scissor as he had to shift up onto his knees to get better control.

"Can you still breathe? You can submit anytime Misaki-san" he would say now having her trapped in just the smother while holding her firmly against him. Ryu was starting to sweat but was impressed that Misaki was able to survive trapped in his submissions for so long, she was tenacious if nothing else.

"I respect you but I have to prove I am the best" he said proudly.

[Arjuna]

Thanks to her struggling, Misaki was released from the scissor, though she was still trapped in that smother. Having no other way to get herself out of this, Misaki drove her elbow back, looking to hit Ryu right at his body. She would do so multiple times, hoping to make him loosen his hold on her so that she could escape.

If she was able to escape, she would try to scamper away from Ryu, moving towards the ropes to lean against them. The move had drained her quite significantly, and she would need to catch her breath and regain her bearing to get back into actions.

[Teenwrestler]

The struggling had managed to free Misaki from the crushing body scissors but the Ace was still trapped in the smother. She would continue to struggle but it was clear that pure struggling was not going to let the Dragon release his submission. She was losing breath fast and not to mention the submission hold was quite humiliating one to be in. In the end, she decided to force her way out by driving her elbow back into his midsection a couple of times to really lay it into the male wrestler.

Ryu groaned, his groans grew louder after each successful strike until finally he was forced to let her go. He would slump down onto his side and roll away from her, clutching his mid-section in pain as he took a moment to recover from the stiff strikes.

[Arjuna]

Finally freed from the hold, Misaki gasped for air as she crawled away from Ryu. Shaking her head, she would try to use this opportunity to recover and regain her breath, pushing herself back up onto her feet and almost buckling under her weight. She would stagger towards the ropes before she leaned against them so that she could steady herself and regain her bearing. For the time being, she would do nothing as she would recover her lost strength at the ropes as she kept her eyes on Ryu.

[Teenwrestler]

Managing to free herself from the rather humiliating submission by forcing Ryu to break out thanks to a couple of still elbow strikes to his waist, The Ace would crawl away from the Dragon and gasp for breath from the smother and body scissor submission. Eventually she would push up onto her feet and stagger to the ring ropes, leaning onto then for support. Ryu on the other hand knew that he was overwhelming the champion of Berserk and he had to stay on her. He got back up to his feet and chased after her, grabbing her head as he grappled her to pull her away from the ring ropes and drag her back to the middle of the ring.

If successful, he would attempt to trap her in a double underhook which would leave her arms trapped and her hunched over infront of him. If everything went according to plan the Dragon would use his grip to lift her up over him and slam her down hard onto her back for a double underhook suplex and go for a quick pinfall attempt!

[Arjuna]

Misaki was grabbed by Ryu who pulled her back to the center of the ring. Still in the midst of recovery, Misaki flailed her arms in her effort to break free, but was unable to do so as Ryu put her into a double underhook. Grimacing, Misaki had no choice but to brace herself as her opponent then lifted her up and slammed her down into the mat with a double underhook suplex!

"AAAHHHH!!"

Crashing into the mat, Misaki was gasping in pain. Ryu took this opportunity to go for a quick pin, and Misaki was pinned underneath the man's body. The referee came over to count for the pin.

"ONE!"

"TWO!"

After the count of two, Misaki kicked out, breaking the pin. Despite being weakened, it seemed that Misaki hadn't lost her will to fight yet. She still could continue the match despite her current condition. She struggled to push Ryu away to give herself enough room to breathe and recover.

[Teenwrestler]

Being a single fall match unlike their first encounter, Ryu knew that he didn't have to take it slow as it was not a test of endurance. He was going all out and after weakening her in a rather humiliating submission hold, he would pull her up and drive her back down to the ring mat in a double underhook suplex to show off his impressive skill and strength. He expertly performed the move and drove the Ace hard before quickly going in for the pin only for Misaki to break out at the count of two!

Ryu would look at the referee in shock, passing his hands through his damp hair in disbelief as he shook his head. He knew he had to do alot more if he was going to take her down in a high stakes match. "Fine then, you leave me no choice Misaki-san" he said grabbing her by the arms and pulling her up while behind her.

The Dragon attempted to pass his arms under her armpit and bring his palms to the back of her neck, looking to lock in a full nelson submission hold to crank up the pressure on her neck while ragdolling her body left and right. "Give up! Defeating you will be one of my greatest achievements Misaki-san. I consider it an honor to defeat a champion like you" he said.

[Arjuna]

Despite her successfully kicking out of the pinfall attempt, Misaki wasn't out of danger just yet. Ryu decided to put her into a full nelson hold, which put her in quite a predicament. She tried her best to endure the hold. When she heard his words, she couldn't help but let out a laugh despite the pain. "Nnghhhh... y-you should... h-have a much... b-bigger aspiration!"

Despite her achievements, Misaki didn't think that she was much better than many big names here in LAW. To think of herself being above them would be overconfidence. While she was surely also a big name here, she knew that she needed a lot of works to do before she could consider herself to be the best among the best.

For the time being, Misaki would endure the hold, refusing to submit. The hold had weakened her quite considerably, but the Ace refused to tap out, at least not yet.
