Noah vs Tina: Tune-Up Match

[Faeron]

"Agh!" Noah groaned under the pain as he kept clawing his way towards the ropes and eventually got to sanctuary. He held on as the ref started to count Tina for the rope break.

[Highfly]

Tina was well aware of the rope break, letting go immediately as soon as she heard the announcement from the referee. She rolled backwards, rising to her feet and crouching at the ready. She was prepared to go again, but she wanted to fully honor the rope break to allow Noah to rise back to his feet, giving him a chance to rest before continuing the match. Tina was feeling more and more confident. She was not used to taking on men in the ring, but it was no different than women. Just step in and do your best. From here on out she was determined to maintain control of the match to dictate the tempo.

Once he did rise however she was going to rush forward and lunge as if she wanted to grapple with him, maneuvering herself to move to his side, wrapping an arm around him to place him in a side headlock.

[Faeron]

Noah was grateful for the quick submission break, shaking some feeling back into his legs. He wasn't so sore to not get back to his feet quickly, but Tina was just as quick and pulled Noah into a side headlock. Noah sucked in some air between his teeth, feeling Tina's bicep flexing against the side of his face. With a huff, he attempted to push Tina towards the ropes and off of him.

[Highfly]

Tina felt Noah push and instead of fighting it she worked with it to use the momentum! Tina ran to the ropes, bouncing off and rocketing back at Noah full speed! She knew he was bigger but she had many ways to hurt an opponent! Tina jumped up trying to wrap up her legs around Noah's head, swinging around to flip him over with a hurricanrana!

[Faeron]

Noah was successful in pushing Tina off of him, gaining only a moment's reprieve before she was suddenly leaping towards him. Her muscular legs wrapped around Noah's neck and the momentum of the run gave Tina what she needed to execute the hurricanrana perfectly. Noah was sent flung towards the ropes, the rookie wrestler taking the time to slid underneath to give himself a bit of space.

[Highfly]

The hurricanrana sent Noah flying, but Tina watch with initial dismay as he slid underneath the ropes to the outside to get away. Was he really trying to run from her? Tina's mind quickly saw the landscape and her initial dismay turned to hope. She was given a golden opportunity! Noah was standing up right by the apron and she had a straight shot at him. Tina took off running as quickly as she could building up as much speed as she could. As she got close to the ropes she dropped down and aimed a hard feet-first baseball slide right at Noah's jaw!

[Faeron]

Noah needed some time to rethink, recuperate. Unfortunately, Tina had adopted Noah's strategy of "ruthless aggression" as he turned just in time to see Tina slid in and slam her boots against the side of his jaw. The force of the impact sent Noah careening towards the barricade where he impacted hard against the steel railing, the fans cheering as the action was now closer to them then ever before.

[Highfly]

Tina knew she was now fully in control as she felt the slide connect with the added bonus of Noah flying into the barricade! She was also outside the ring and near the fans, winking and flexing an arm at them before shaking her hips a bit. After her little taunt to fire up the crowd she went back to business, reaching out to grab hold of Noah and hold him by the hair with her left hand, sending a couple hard shots to the side of his face with her right fist! Tina was trying to soften him up with those strikes before shoving his head between her legs. The tigress was about to take a page out of the amazon's playbook, attempting to lift Noah up and power bomb him hard onto the unforgiving ground outside the ring!

[Faeron]

Noah was reeling from the baseball slide and the two stiff rights didn't help matters. It took a brief moment before survival instincts kicked in and Noah realized that he was being set up for pain. He held on to Tina's legs to resist the lift, feeling the strength of her arms before lifting his torso up in an attempt to counter with a back body drop.

[Highfly]

The tigress got cocky, her lifting attempted blocked by Noah! Before she could react he straightened up sending the middleweight champion flipping over his back landing hard on her own back! The ground was unforgiving leaving Tina groaning in pain as she looked up at the arena lights! She felt the momentum beginning to swing back in Noah's favor which is something she didn't want given his size advantage. He was capable of putting a hurting on her quite quickly, and she was only all too well aware of this fact!
