The match had taken an unexpected turn for Cathy as her opponent surprised and locked her into a signature move that quickly had the blonde wrestler gasping and going red in the face as Karin worked the leg hard enough on her trapped neck to turn it effectively into a sleeper hold. In a regular match that might have led to the Japanese wrestler gaining a submission fall but as this was a special rules match, Cathy kept struggling until she had to go limp and then she felt the smaller woman struggling to raise her on her shoulders and carry her into the pen.
Cathy was dropped heavily and lay on her back in the mud where she had fallen, seeing stars in front of her eyes. But as the count started the tough Montana wrestler was on her feet again quickly and starting to climb out, wondering why she'd agreed to such a novelty match for her LAW debut. Oh yes, to keep the sponsors happy

. Angry at almost having given the match away in a momentary lapse of concentration, Cathy looked round for her opponent: it was soon gonna be payback time!
