A Red Storm in Southern Lands - Ashley VS Tasha.

[Afterhoursclub]

Still reeling from the hard slam against the turnbuckle, Ashley remained hanging from the corner, arms draped over the top ropes at her sides, chest pressed against the corner's padding, her head down... still trying to catch her breath back.

"Gosh... damn..." It was almost too fast; one moment, she had the advantage in what was honestly a pretty easy squash match for her, and the next, she was dazed and with a growing headache.

Ashley attempted to push herself away from the corner, turning around to get back into the fight, but before she could make any progress...

-SMACK!-

"Ouughh!" A hard kick slammed against her lower back, shoving her right onto the corner once more. And with this one came another, and then another, and another...

The Redhead's body spasmed against the turnbuckle as she was being hit relentlessly by the southern gal. A myriad of kicks all find home on Ashley's back. She clenched her teeth, holding firmly to the ropes while trying to endure as best as she could, but by the time Tasha was done, Ashley was evidently having trouble even standing upright.

Things only got worse when Tasha came running at full speed, slamming herself violently against Ashley and flattening her against the ringpost.

"Ooofff!" A hollow wheeze escaped the Brit's lips as the air was forced out of her lungs. Hitting the mat back-first the very next moment.

Ashley had managed to prove Tasha why she was called the Red Menace in the beginning stages of the match, but now Tasha was getting good progress with proving the Brit why it was dangerous to be under a tornado warning! Once the Southern Twister had gotten the control now, she was relentless with punishing the redhead's body, hopefully just as fiercely as Ashely had been punishing hers! The cornered Brit's back was now getting to pay a hefty price for it... Along with the rest of her upper body once the Alabaman splashed her own body against hers, resulting in the redhead promptly collapsing back-first into the mat.

Straightening her body up, Tasha took a few steps standing tall beside Ashley's downed form, observing her opponent's condition. And while she was pretty happy with what she saw, there was still no reason to give heel any reprieve at all. After a few more steps, the Alabaman proceeded to give a few more brutal stomps on the redhead's body, this time onto her abs and close to her chest, wanting to prevent any retrieval of air into her lungs, while giving one particularly snarky comment as well. "Ha! I'm sure you'd be one to kick a girl when she's down!"

But even if this was a brief, enjoyable moment, Tasha was still longing for something more. And now that Ashley seemed exhausted, it appeared to be a good time to see if she could actually manage to ragdoll the Red Menace... Thus, the Southern Twister reached down for the Brit's other arm, trying to force her back upright again by pulling from it. But Tasha's real intention was never to have the redhead establishing a proper composure back onto her two feet... But instead, right as she would have her foe upright enough, the sweeter girl would want to wrap her arms around the redhead's waist, and throw her back into the mat with a German Suplex!

Ashley was down, in the blink of an eye, all the momentum gathered from the beginning of the encounter had completely disappeared. Taken away by Tasha, who was starting to look strong with her sudden comeback, managing to topple the Red Menace, leaving her gasping for air.

Ashley held her back with both hands, still reeling from the onslaught of kicks received mere moments ago. She was fuming... as soon as she managed to get back on her feet, the redhead was going to-

-HURK!-

The Brit's thoughts were stopped abruptly by a heavy stomp on her gut, forcing the air out of her lungs again. Then, another came... and another...

Ashley was forced to try to protect herself with both arms crossed in front of her chest, but it was impossible to cover every strike, as a few more stomps hit her hard on various parts of her anatomy. Soon, the thudding noise of Tasha's boots bouncing on the canvas and Ashley's ragged grunts filled the air inside the ring.

Suddenly, the southern gal changed tactics, grabbing Ashley's arm and pulling her to her feet. This provoked an angry growl from the hurt woman. The very next second, Tasha's arms coiled around Ashley's waist, holding her firmly before attempting to smack her back to the canvas with a hefty German Suplex...

However, Ashley was done with being tossed around.

"You... get the fuck off!" she yelled.

Ashley let Tasha lift her to begin the arc needed to accomplish the suplex, but then she raised her legs and pointed them forward in an attempt to shift all of her weight to the front, making it impossible for the Alabaman to complete the rotation. Instead, the Red Menace wrapped one arm around Tasha's head, and with their combined weight, she looked to drive her face-first onto the mat with a Bulldog Style DDT.

The heart-shaped openings on Tasha's attire certainly looked like a bad mismatch with her in-ring behavior now as the crowds would get to see the Alabaman continuing to brutally stomp on the helpless Ashley's body on the mat. The Red Menace was looking increasingly like simply a Red Mess, with the momentum seemingly shifting ever so decisively onto the Southern Twister's favor. In fact, decisively enough for Tasha to get confident enough with try throwing the Brit around some more...

Sure, the first part turned out to go fine. The redhead got pulled upright, and placed perfectly in Tasha's grasp for the launch of the German Suplex! The Southern gal even got to let out a spiteful "HA!" in response to the Brit's yell, as she began lifting her body up... But then, something happened.

Tasha's strength suddenly fell short, as Ashley got to prove once again why she was such a dangerous force to reckon with inside the ring! Before the Alabaman could even realize what was happening, the weight and momentum suddenly shifted forward... And her face got brutally driven into the mat! "AAAGGHHH!!!"

The Southern Airways flight suffered a painful crash landing as the passengers weren't interested in staying onboard this time... And as the disoriented Tasha's body flopped over from the impact, she could only hope that the redhead wasn't ready to get back up again first... Or at least, not before Tasha herself would have gotten her head oriented again enough to try rolling over a bit, so that she could try snapping Ashley's beaten midsection into a bodyscissor hold!

[Afterhoursclub]

Ashley had to admit, among all the opponents she had faced before, the ones who actually managed to pummel her in this fashion were quite a select few... Was Tasha.... actually any good, or had she been simply underestimating her opponent all this time, letting her guard down and not taking things as seriously as she should have?

Whatever the reason was... the heelish redhead could not care less; she had managed to turn the tide by grabbing Tasha's head and completely foiling her attempt at a German Suplex. Slamming the Alabaman face-first onto the canvas with a vicious Bulldog DDT that was sure to leave her reeling for a while.

Ashley wasn't going to be left unscathed, though- She hit the mat with her rear with just as much force as Tasha... definitely not a pleasant sensation. But if that were the price of getting even with her obnoxious foe, she would gladly take it.

"Guhh" the redhead grunted, taking a moment to catch her breath before turning back... just in time to witness Tasha already on the move again, unexpectedly going back into offense as if nothing had happened.

"What?!" Ashley was taken by surprise, but she managed to react, putting one arm down to stop the girl from closing the bodyscissor entirely. Still, she had to deal with the other leg coming from the side. It was an awkward position... one that didn't look pretty at all... and it wasn't clear who was in control-

"The Fuck... are you doing?!" Ashley yelled. Struggling to unwrap herself from the half-closed hold while turning to face Tasha.

[Jaystar]

Tasha's crash landing had certainly been a painful one, but luckily Ashley hadn't escaped its effects either, earning the Southern Twister precious few moments to get herself a bit more oriented once again. And even if she would have ultimately needed more time to reel still, her mind was already getting filled with one vital thought...

"Don't... Let... Her... Slip... Away...!!!"

There was a real danger here that Ashley would manage to turn the tide once again, and Tasha could not afford that! Thus, the Alabaman did the only thing that appeared the most effective, and more importantly, the easiest to do at this point... Trying to snatch the Brit's body between her thick legs! And the good news were, the Brit wasn't quite making it out of the line of fire!

There were some bad news as well though... Namely, that Ashley managed to prevent Tasha from closing the bodyscissor hold as tightly and completely as she would have wished for. Instead of applying a dominant hold, Tasha was now engaged in a struggle... With neither wrestler seemingly having proper control at first. For Tasha though, this appeared the only thing she could do for now, before her head would still recover enough from the surprise DDT... And before she could dream of getting back up again for a more advantageous position.

"Putting you in your place!" was the Southern Twister's defiant answer to Ashley's yell, one that she managed to shout out amidst her grunts of effort, trying to keep the redhead's struggles in check. But soon enough Tasha realized that the failed German Suplex attempt had also just consumed quite a bit of her leg strength, and her position on the mat was more disadvantageous compared to Ashley's... And despite her best efforts, it began feeling increasingly likely that the Red Menace was soon going to overpower her leg strength, and become once more unleashed...

[Afterhoursclub]

Out of all the annoying and obnoxious opponents, Tasha was quickly finding herself at the top of Ashley's list.

"Get... the fuck... off me!" The Red Menace yelled, still battling the southern gal's attempt at a body scissor, but Ashley's was not going to let that happen... Not in a million years! Ashley was done being ridiculed. Slightly in a better position than her foe, the redhead grabbed one of Tasha's legs and held it firmly with both hands; quickly, she dropped herself to the side, making sure to wrap her own legs around the Alabamian's lower limb while still holding it tightly.

She had captured Tasha's leg, and with a swift rotating motion, the Brit began to twist and bend the yellow gal's foot in a sudden ankle lock, punishing the woman for attempting such a bold submission on her.

"You are going to miss being able to walk, hon!" The redhead shouted out loud before turning and twisting Tasha's leg even more.
