Charlotte Ravel' Vs. Gabriella Guerrero - Apex Qualifier Cage Match!

[Devastated]

Gabriella groaned as she laid on the canvas on her front, her mind swimming a bit after having had her forehead smashed into the mat so many times. She slowly rolled over onto her side as she brought a hand up to nurse her now aching head. She would not have much time to rest though as she felt her wrist and elbow being grabbed by the Sand Lizard who pulled her up towards her feet.

The Hispanic beauty would release a groan as she was sent running by Charlotte! Forced to run straight to the corner turnbuckle! Stumbling to turn at the final moment so her back hit the corner instead! Thinking she'd have a moment to catch her breath before Charlotte was upon her again turned out to be a grave mistake on Gabriella's part, as her eyes widened upon seeing Charlotte had already closed the distance she made with the Irish-whip!

The foot of Charlotte came crashing straight into the head of Gabriella! Her head snapping backwards as she was forced to arch her back and straighten for a second....if Charlotte stepp back away from her then the purple haired woman would slowly slide down right onto her butt in the corner, slumping with her head leaning forward....dazed and seeing stars for the moment.

Charlotte usually preferred a slightly less straightforward approach, but at that moment her only goal was to cause her opponent as much pain as possible. And there was hardly anything better for this purpose than a kick in the face. When Gabriella reached the corner, she probably expected to take at least one deep breath, but the Sand Lizard did not give her such an opportunity, because the next second her foot crashed into the purple-haired woman's face.

The upper body of the Mexican woman leaned back so much that she partially rested on the top turnbuckle. However, Charlotte felt Gabriella's body go limp. As soon as the Frenchwoman stopped pressing her opponent to the corner, Gabriella's legs buckled and she was ready to fall on her butt.

“Not so fast...” she said quietly.

Instead of letting this happen, Charlotte took a step forward, wrapping her right arm around Gabriella's waist and her left arm around Gabriella's right thigh. Gritting her teeth, the Sand Lizard intended to lift the Mexican woman into the air for a moment, and then put her on the top turnbuckle.

While holding the purple-haired woman in place, the martial arts master intended to climb onto the middle ropes, and then raise her right fist above her head, thereby encouraging the audience to create as much noise as possible. Charlotte intended to wrap her arms around Gabriella's waist, and then abruptly lean back, while turning in the opposite direction to drive her opponent's body into the mat with the help of a top rope belly-to-belly suplex!

[Devastated]

Gabriella's senses were rocked by that big boot, and as she was starting to slump in the corner she felt the arm of Charlotte wrap around her waist, she released a soft groan as she leaned against the French-woman for support right now. Though it looked as if Charlotte wasn't exactly looking for a hug, instead she began to lift the Mexican woman, moving her up onto the top turnbuckle.

The Hispanic beauty would blink, trying to gather her senses as she was plopped down onto the top turnbuckle, she shook her head slowly as she could only make out an outline of Charlotte at the moment, seeing the Sand Lizard start to climb up onto the middle rope in front of her. Those arms of Charlotte's then came up and wrapped around her waist once more!

She had enough of a wherewithal right now to realize that whatever was coming next it was going to hurt! She was jerked off the top turnbuckle as she felt the gust of air against her back that came with her rapid descent before she was met with the canvas! Her back hit hard, the impact forcing her back to arch up from the canvas! She released a pained cry, "Aagh!" before she slumped onto her side…

Charlotte's move clearly impressed the audience as the arena was filled with a deafening roar, and a moment later the entire ring shook as Gabriella's body crashed hard into the mat. Letting out a painful cry, the Mexican woman convulsed several times before going limp under Charlotte.

The Sand Lizard was breathing heavily, but she knew exactly what she should do. This move was new to her, but the fact that her opponent had taken a lot of damage couldn't be questioned. Therefore, her further actions were predictable, but still fair.

Charlotte shifted slightly to lie across the purple-haired woman. She intended to put her left arm on Gabriella's shoulders and at the same time reach for the Mexican woman's far leg. She was going to hook this leg with her right hand and pull it up, thereby securely pressing her opponent's body to the mat.

The last thing she was going to do was use her flexibility to throw her right leg at the Mexican woman's near leg to strengthen the pin. The referee did not hesitate and after a moment lay down next to the fighters, slapping the mat for the first time.

“ONE!”
