Reiko Hinomoto vs. Ms. Spencer - Refresher Course

[BlackAkuma]

As strange as it might have seemed, Muriel was uniquely suited to a match like this, unlike Reiko. While she cared little for the inherent titillation of such a bout, it did favor her more grounded style of wrestling in many ways. Mud wrestling put an emphasis on hold and grapples, which she was a deft hand at, and submissions were harder to escape without the ropes for an easy out. Maintaining a grip was the real challenge, but if she could manage that, she was confident that victory would be well within her grasp.

Figuratively speaking, at least.

In practice, however, Reiko remained elusive, rolling over before Muriel could lock in the hold and weakening her position. Instead of trying to lock in a suboptimal hold, the disciplinarian decided to go for something a little more novel - she had good legs, why not use them.

Muriel unfurled her arms in full, only to open her legs, wrap them around the woman’s waist, and attempted to crush her midsection with a bodyscissor, grinding hard on the ribs.

Rolling onto her side and splashing throughout the mud, Reiko managed to escape from the sleeper hold as Ms. Spencer deemed it worth too much trouble, The Zero Fighter thought she had time to begin grappling back against the Canadian Teacher. However, Ms. Spencer was level headed and didn't release the sleeper without a follow up plan, snatching Reiko's waist before she got too far away!

"Uwaaaahh!" Reiko cried out, throwing her head up as now all the pressure was around her stomach! She gritted her teeth, unable to catch a breath of fresh air after escaping her opponent's arms and was now trapped by the long legs!

Grabbing on the legs, particularly on to the ankles, Reiko tried to break free of the bodyscissors as she was forced to roll back onto her butt, seated in front of Ms. Spencer amongst the muddy sea as she tried to break her opponent's grip on her while her stamina continued to be drained, taking heavy hits in being trapped in strong sapping holds like this!

‘Like a greased pig’.

That peculiar metaphor came to Muriel’s mind as she struggled to keep Reiko under control, eventually posting up on her palms for increased control. To say the woman was slippery would be an understatement, and she was sure that she’d have an easier time grappling with an eel. The woman writhed this way and that, and while she was confident enough in her position for the time being, there was little to be gained from the current situation. She was doing damage, but couldn't apply the full brunt of her power.

A change of tactics, then. Muriel kept her foe grounded for a few moments more, before she abruptly changed tactics, releasing Reiko after a final squeeze. She reached under the woman’s armpits, clasped her fingers behind her neck in an tight grip, and proceeded to stand with her foe in toe, forcing her up into a standing Full Nelson, the perfect move to transition back to a vertical base with.

Working to break out of the body scissors and protect her core, Reiko grabbed onto the ankle of the Teacher in an attempt to pry herself free. She did not make much progress, even with a semi decent grip there was no leverage for her to fight against the long and powerful legs of Ms. Spencer! Her fortunes began to change as she was finally freed from the body scissors, a breath of relief coming out of her as now she was able to breathe easy.

But it was not by her own efforts that she was freed from the hold, caught in another one sprung on her by her veteran opponent! "Nnnnngh!" she let out, her arms quickly being pulled up and pinching her shoulder blades together caught in a Full Nelson!

"Aaaaaugh!" she groaned out again, forced to follow Ms. Spencer to her feet with the increase of pressure being applied to spine and arms as the pair rose out of the mud, her barely covered chest on fully display with the coating of wet earth on it!

[BlackAkuma]

The Full Nelson was proving to be a bit more effective than the bodyscissor was at wearing Reiko down, and easier to maintain as well. While her foe proved extremely squirrely, Muriel was able to form a competent S-lock with her fingers and secure the move well enough that there was a low chance of her arms slipping free. Muriel had her.

Now, what was she going to do with her?

”A spirited effort, Ms. Hinamoto.” She gave the hold a good wrench, forcing Reiko into an uncomfortable angle, before she rapidly pulled her in the other direction, continually riding down her efforts, sapping her energy. ”But your cause is hopeless. Perhaps a submission is in your future?”

Of course, there was little chance of that happening - if Reiko was at all the woman she remembered, her determination was still legendary. But she felt obliged to at least throw the option before she resorted to more drastic measures.

[TheManVan]

Panting and gasping, The Canadian Teacher's hold on hre was doing it's work with exhausting and wearing down Reiko as she was strung up with her arms above her head and standing in the center of the mud pit. Her cheeks blushed underneath the coating of mud, feeling the large breasts of Ms. Spencer pressing into her back and adding more tension on her shoulder blades locked in the Full Nelson.

Things were not looking great for the Zero Fighter, even Ms. Spencer was hinting towards a submission finish at this state.

But she was instilled with the Japanese Fighting Spirit at a young age, she wasn't going to submit until the very end as she began to shake her head. "No...No...!" she gasped out, balling her fists and pushed back against Ms. Spencer's arms! "No!" she defiantly shouted out, willing herself back as she twisted and shook, stomping in the mud and tossing mud droplets off of her body as she struggled for freedom, bringing her arms up as high as she could before swatting them down to try and break free!

[BlackAkuma]

As always, Reiko proved to be an exceptionally spirited opponent, giving Muriel no small amount of trouble as she sought to make the most of the Full Nelson. Her arms were relatively dry, her technique was flawless, and this would’ve been enough to wring a submission from most foes. But against a will like this, even the best submissions would falter - there was simply no way to make this woman tap out. It was folly.

Sure enough, Reiko continued to fight and defy Muriel, raising up and putting her grip to the test. The teacher did her best to hold on, but it was like trying to wrestle a hurricane, and her efforts wound up being in vain. After an explosive burst of power, she broke free of the full nelson.

Muriel staggered back and regained her footing, but she refused to let her advantage dissipate so easily . Knowing the window was closing in short order, she surged forward, swung her arm long and wide, and attempted to nail Reiko in the face with a lariat, clean on the jaw.

[TheManVan]

Breaking free of the Full Nelson by swinging her arms down, Reiko managed to free herself as she staggered forward, splashing in the mud as her arms draped low, her shoulders were burning as she stumbled to turn back to her opponent, who was rushing at her with her arm outstretch and ready to bash her head in!

Reiko dipped forward, ducking underneath the arm of Ms. Spencer as she stretched out her own arm, wrapping around her waist to assist in spinning around to get behind Ms. Spencer!

Avoiding the dangerous lariat attempt, Reiko needed a big move to off set the momentum in her favor as she reached up with her muddy hands up and over Ms. Spencer's shoulders to grab at her chin! Pulling back, she soon dropped down into the mud pit on her butt to rip back Ms. Spencer down and slam her back first into the mud!

[BlackAkuma]

Truth be told, Muriel didn’t relish the thought of taking Reiko in such a manner. While it had been a while since they last tested each other, she remembered the woman as being, for want of better words, ‘well-rounded’, able to hold herself decently in most areas, but not excelling in any of them—a Jill of All Trades.

But the opportunity was there, and her choices were limited - she needed to strike while the iron was hot. In fairness, her lariat wasn’t lacking in technique or execution, but it was a move that Reiko was ready for, and she avoided it with annoying ease, letting it sail clear over her head.

Muriel tried to spin about and right herself, hoping to correct herself before Reiko could take advantage. Unfortunately, she was quicker on the draw this time, and her foe moved in to cease her from behind and slam her into the mud with a reverberating splash. While it was far from the most devastating move, it was enough to leave her stunned momentarily before she rolled over and tried to push her way up, losing precious time.

[TheManVan]

Pulling her talented and experienced opponent with a well placed counter, Reiko pulled them both down for a mat slam, sitting out as mud exploded around them. Droplets showered as mud dripped off of their bodies as Reiko tried to grab a hold of either of Ms. Spencer’s legs to try and go right for a pin, but the Canadian had enough wherewithal to put distance between them and stop Reiko’s pressure.

Reiko let out a frustrated growl as she pushed herself up with splashing more mud about. The mud rolled down her skin as she followed after Ms. Spencer who was trying to rise out of the mud.

Cutting off her opponent, Reiko wrapped an arm around her head and started to drag the taller woman up and out of the mud, keeping her arm locked around the muddy blonde head as Reiko took a second to catch her breath. Underneath the hot sun even with the mud covering her body was taking a toll on her and the mud itself weighing down her body, Reiko’s body was beginning to show the fatigue by this point in the match as she took one more breath before attempting another big move!

Slinging Ms. Spencer’s arm over her head, she reached down to lock up Ms. Spencer’s leg as she stomped into the mud and heaved her up into the air, attempting to twist Ms. Spencer around drop down again for a Fisherman’s Driver and dropping Ms. Spencer down between her legs!
