I Will Be A Loser No More (for Highfly)

[Underdoggo]

Makie's heart leapt as the former heavyweight champion encouraged her. Up until now, she had relied a lot on Kyo for her training. And before Kyo, well, she had trained a bit under her dad...and that was it. Kyo had done his best, but Makie was now noticing just how different it was to be trained by another woman, and someone who wasn't family. The expectations felt different, and she felt like she had a lot less to prove. Honestly, Makie was feeling a LOT more at ease.

"Oh...okay!" she replied. "Well, I mean, I have a few light submission holds here and there-- camel clutches, armbars, that sort of thing...but I do have one that I've practiced a few times to use on bigger opponents." She glanced at Tina and blushed. "Tina knows what I'm talking about, I...kinda used it on her." She glanced back at Alaina. "Um...if you could get on your front please Alaina? We'll say I managed to stun you, somehow," she said, thinking already of trying her Giant Slayer legbar submission on Alaina.

[Highfly]

Alaina nodded and moved into position. "All right, I am ready show me what you have." Alaina said ready to be put into a hold. She wasn't sure what was coming so the surprise would be genuine for Alaina however she was going to do all she could to escape it in turn. She wasn't going to make it easy although if this was made for larger women Alaina knew she may be in trouble...

[Underdoggo]

Makie watched as Alaina moved into position. Taking a deep breath, she sat down next to Alaina and grabbed at the heel of her boot, before locking her own legs around Alaina's leg. Huffing, Makie would lean back, pulling slightly at Alaina's leg-- not hard, as she had no intention of actually hurting the Amazon-- but enough to keep her leg nicely trapped.

"Okay," she breathed, "so in this position I just start stretching away at your leg, pulling at your hamstrings, all that good stuff. How would you escape this?"

[Highfly]

Alaina was down and had her leg trapped and she was looking back at Makie. "I can't really kick to effectively at you normally if I have a free leg that is my first reaction. It would land but not at a great angle. If there was a match that allowed for rope breaks are you able to prevent me from giving it everything I have to roll to the side?" Alaina asked.

[Underdoggo]

Makie thought about that as she held onto Alaina's leg, and slowly shook her head. "No," she admitted. "I'd be able to put a hurt on you, but someone as big and powerful as you would still be able to crawl to the ropes." She glanced at Tina. "I used this on you in our match, remember? And you crawled to the ropes without any real difficulty. I could do literally nothing to stop you."

She released Alaina's leg and sat back a little. "So...do any of you have good suggestions on a submission hold that a girl my size might use against someone like either of you?"

[Highfly]

Tina scratched her head. "Air supply, go for that. Wrap up an arm at an odd angle too. I mean a big lady may power out and pry your grip off with one hand but you'll get damage in ya know?" Tina said. "I hate that about the biggest, strongest opponents. You can be technically perfect and they just say nope to all of it. It is why I like strikes as much as you. A shot to the head can lay out anyone no matter how big and bad they are."

"A cross face or STF variation perhaps?" Alaina suggested before looking over at Makie. "Now do you want to get practice throwing around a big old amazon now?" She asked with a smile on her face.

[Underdoggo]

Makie perked up at Tina's mention of air supply. "Like a choke hold? Yeah, I think in our match I had you in a guillotine choke at one point?" She scratched the back of her head. "I mean I wasn't thinking and used that move out of desperation more than anything else, but...yeah, if you think that works?"

At that point, Alaina asked if she wanted to throw her around. Makie blinked in surprise. "Are...are you serious?" she asked. "Me, someone...well, my size, throw around someone your size?"

[Highfly]

Tina nodded her head. "Yeah, just like that. I think that'd be a good move to go to just be wary of some she hulk really powering out." Tina said with a wink.

Alaina stepped up and nodded. "Yes, that is exactly it. A lot of moves mean you can use your whole body to lift. not just arms or anything." Alaina said. "you being small means thet if someone like me is open or out of position a samoan drop is a great go-to. You nudge yours shoulder into me and then lift. Use her arms to hold me in position, keep your back straight and your legs generate most of the lift." Alaina said. "Give it a try." She added as she stepped up allowing Makie to attempt to set up the move.

[Underdoggo]

Makie was still surprised she was hearing something like this. Throughout her wrestling career, she had always assumed that her lighter size meant that throwing bigger girls would always be a bad idea. Sure, maybe she could do something like a suplex, or a stunner from the top rope, but...something like a Samoan drop, which actually had her lifting the other girl across her shoulders, was something she had never dreamed of using.

And yet, here Alaina was, proposing that she give it a try. And by the look of things, the Amazon was absolutely serious.

"Oh...okay," Makie said as she stepped up opposite Alaina. Taking a deep breath, she rushed forward and dropped low, aiming to grab the back of Alaina's head with one hand and the back of her thigh with another. Moving as fast as she could, she gave a sharp cry of exertion as she tried to lift Alaina up across her shoulders, before dropping backwards, trying to nail her with the Samoan drop!

[Highfly]

Alaina felt herself being lift up and held before falling back hard to the mat! Her big body crashing down echoed as she grit her teeth and laid there a moment before rising to her feet. "Good, I felt that one." She said as she rubbed her back and hobbled a bit. "Okay now if ya want I can show ya how to just pick up and slam someone old fashioned, same as I like to do." The amazon said as she stretched out her back. "Same principle operates for duplexes too." She added as she limbered up trying to shake off the painful samoan drop landing.
