Clash of Titans: Iron vs. Rising - Best 2 out of 3 - Alexios, "The Titan of the Sea" vs Rekka

[Weonna]

Rekka barely had time to react. Still dazed and aching from the backbreaker that earned Alexios the first fall, he turned toward his opponent just in time to see a wall of muscle flying at him.

WHAM!

Alexios crashed into him full-force with a corner splash, his arms spread wide as he squished Rekka into the turnbuckles. The air was driven out of Rekka’s lungs with a wheeze, his body jarring against the pads as his back screamed in protest.

*****

Christina jumped to her feet, fists clenched in excitement.

"YES!! That’s it, baby! Finish him off now!"

she shouted, beaming with adrenaline.

“Put him in a body bag!!!”

*****

Rekka slumped forward, arms limp over the top ropes as he sagged into the corner. His chest heaved, and his legs trembled beneath him. The pain from the backbreaker still lingered, and the corner splash only reignited the firestorm in his spine. He was still standing—but only just.

Despite it all, behind that mask, his eyes still burned with flickers of resistance. He wasn’t finished yet… but Alexios was dangerously close to proving otherwise.

[ScylliasExoter]

Alexios felt the end was near. With Rekka slumped against the ropes, he delivered a savage knife edged chop to Rekka’s chest. The Greek then dragged the luchador into the center of the ring. He shoved Rekka’s head in between his legs and wrapped his arms around his torso. Hoisting a dazed Rekka up, Alexios had a perfect powerbomb set up on a silver platter.
***
Helen watched in horror as her hope for Rekka (and winning the bet) were fading fast. She sighed and scooted over to Christina. Without a word, she pressed her back into Christina’s chest and stomach in preparation for losing the fall and her consciousness, per their bet. She grimaced as she watched Rekka being hoisted up by her ex-boyfriend (and now Christina’s boyfriend).
”Might as well get comfortable.”

[Weonna]

In the ring, Alexios shifted his stance, ready to bring Rekka crashing down with another thunderous powerbomb—

—but suddenly, Rekka’s body came alive.

Like a spark reigniting an engine, the luchador snapped out of his daze mid-air. With a flash of agility, he twisted his weight forward, slipping down Alexios’ back.

Rekka landed behind him and, in one fluid motion, rolled through Alexios' legs, hooking his arms and legs for a sudden—

SUNSET FLIP!

Spoiler

He yanked Alexios down into a tight roll-up pin, sitting back and stacking his opponent’s legs over his shoulders.

The ref dove into position.

ONE!

TWO!

The crowd screamed in shock.

[ScylliasExoter]

Alexios felt he had it won. He was one move away from victory. Then Rekka sprung to life and Alexios lost his balance. The Greek suddenly found himself flipped over onto his back, the wind knocked out of him. The ref counted and before Alexios knew it, he heard the crowd shout:
THREEEEEEEE!

The crowd was stunned at the sudden reversal. The bell rang and the announcer’s voice rant out.
”The winner of they second fall by pinfall: REKKAAAAAAAAA!”
****
Helen was just getting comfortable to be put in a sleeper when the reversal happened. She only half saw it. But both women were stunned. Helen then screamed at the bell ringing.
”Oh what was that?! What was our bet about the NEXT fall?!”

[Weonna]

Christina stared at the screen, wide-eyed, lips parted in shock. Then she slowly turned her gaze toward Helen, recovering her composure with a smug little smirk.

“Okay… okay, fine,”

she said, crossing her arms.

“Let’s up the stakes.”

Christina leaned forward, her voice dropping into that smug, teasing tone.

“Whoever wins the final fall… gets the loser as their personal teddy bear for a week. Hugs, cuddles, naps, full ownership rights! What do ya say? You up for it?”

****

Back in the ring, Rekka was riding a wave of adrenaline. Alexios was on the mat again, trying to catch his breath from the shock of being pinned. But Rekka wasn’t about to let up.

He grabbed Alexios by the head and pulled him to his feet, the crowd roaring as they saw the familiar rhythm begin again. Rekka had did the three amigos earlier and now he is about to do it again!

With his arm locked around Alexios’ neck, Rekka popped his hips and snapped him into the first suplex of the Three Amigos.

The crowd shouted: “UNO!”

Without breaking grip, Rekka rolled through, stood up again, and delivered the second vertical suplex with a shout of effort.

“DOS!”

Rekka twirled his finger in the air as he stood. The crowd rose to their feet.

Then—with all the fire left in his body—Rekka lifted Alexios once more to attempt the for the third and final suplex!

[ScylliasExoter]

Helen answered without hesitation.
”Deal, but I’m still taking the prize for this fall.”
She turned around, now frontally embracing Christina. Helen wrapped her right arm around the back of her neck and placed her left on Christina’s throat. Clasping them together, she locked in an Ezekiel choke. While Christina normally knew the counter, she was honor bound to take it. Helen squeezed tightly, sensually choking the Filipina woman as their bodies were pressed together.
”Shhhhh. I’ll wake you when it’s done, agapi mou.”
****
Alexios was stunned that he lost a fall. How could this happen?! He had no time to analyze things as he was quickly grabbed and hooked. Rekka lifted him into the air and brought him down. The Three Amigos sequence started again and Alexios was forced to meet them. Three suplexes in a row and Alexios was laid out on the mat again.

[Weonna]

Before Christina could even reply, Helen turned around and frontally embraced her, their bodies pressed flush together. In one fluid, practiced motion, Helen wrapped her right arm behind Christina’s neck and brought her left hand gently against Christina’s throat, clasping her hands together to lock in a tight, perfect Ezekiel choke.

Christina, who normally would’ve countered the move in an instant, knew she was honor bound by their bet. She inhaled sharply, feeling the pressure tighten around her neck as Helen squeezed, applying firm, sensual pressure.

Their faces were close, their bodies pressed tight, the warmth between them rising. Christina’s breath came in shallow gasps against Helen’s cheek, her arms reflexively gripping Helen’s sides but not struggling—submitting to the moment.

Helen's words, tender and mocking all at once, sent a shiver down Christina’s spine. Her legs grew weaker by the second, her vision blurring slightly as Helen kept the choke firm yet almost affectionate, rocking her gently as the Filipina woman slowly, sensually, began to drift off in Helen’s arms.

Meanwhile, back in the ring, Rekka wasn’t wasting time.

After stunning Alexios with the second round of Three Amigos, Rekka dropped onto the exhausted Greek wrestler, hooking his leg tightly for the cover.

The referee dove into position as the crowd counted along—

ONE!

TWO!

The whole arena was on their feet, screaming—

Would this be the end?!

[ScylliasExoter]

For a moment, it looked like Alexios was out from Rekka’s onslaught. But almost on instinct, the Greek man forced his right shoulder and arm up when the ref’s hands was millimeters from hitting the mat for a third time. The crowd was on their feet as both men laid there, with Alexios still stunned.
*******
Helen felt pure bliss as Christina went limp in her embrace. Helen gently rocked Christina side to side in the choke. She took off the pressure but nonetheless kept Christina ensnared. It was rare that she got to make Christina her teddy bear, so Helen was gonna make the most of it. She didn’t even notice the third fall resuming and Alexios kicking out. Her heart raced as she hugged Christina tight. She eventually turned around and sat with an unconscious Christina snuggled up against her to watch the rest of the match.

[Weonna]

Rekka lay beside Alexios, chest heaving, sweat dripping from his masked brow. He couldn’t believe Alexios kicked out of that—again. But the match wasn’t over, and Rekka knew he needed to end it now.

Groaning, he pushed himself to his knees… then slowly to his feet. The crowd roared with anticipation as the luchador dragged himself to the corner, glancing back to make sure Alexios was still down. He took a deep breath, steadying his legs as he climbed to the top turnbuckle.

Rekka perched like a hawk, arms out, his figure silhouetted against the lights.

He positioned himself for his finishe4, Inferno Descent, the crowd holding its breath—
He leapt.

There was just enough time—just enough space—for Alexios to move or counter...

Meanwhile, Christina was a vision of peace in Helen’s arms. The Filipino fighter, so fierce and fiery in the ring, now lay completely limp in Helen’s lap. Her dark lashes fluttered against flushed cheeks, her breathing slow and even.

Helen hugged her tighter, one hand brushing a few strands of hair from her face. Christina's lips were parted slightly, her head tilted softly against Helen’s chest. Despite being choked unconscious, she looked… content.

A warm weight in Helen’s arms.
Her own personal teddy bear.
And Helen wasn’t letting go.

[ScylliasExoter]

It looked like Alexios was done. After Rekka’s stunning offense, the Greek was laid out in a supine position. Rekka climbed up to the top rope do deliver his finish. The luchador leapt and soared in the air, but when he came down, there was nothing there. In a burst of instinctive movement, Alexios rolled to the side to dodge the Inferno Decent. He then grabbed Rekka’s ankle and, in a blink-and-you-miss-it moment, wrapped it up in an ankle lock!
