Though Susana tried to get a hold of Astrid's arm before she could get her hold locked in, the Norsewoman was too deeply in the zone to notice or care. She was putting all her energy into this one, and she couldn't hold back, latching onto Sue with all the force she could muster. Wincing, Astrid strained to keep on the pressure, clenching as hard as she could. She started to reel back, her teeth clenched tightly, never letting up for even a minute. This was her chance, and it was now or never.
At last, it happened. Susana tapped out on her arm, her submission signaling the end of the match and the ring of the bell. On cue, Astrid let her go, her arm dropping away from her throat. All the while, the crowd erupted in applause - not just for Astrid, but also for her opponent, who had gone the distance the whole way through and put up a valiant defense. She was just as worthy of recognition as the victor.
It seemed that Astrid herself agreed, as she looked back down to Sue, panting hard, her face red and streaked with sweat. She extended a thumbs-up to her, as she sank back on her knees, her back settling against the ropes. She might have held out as best she could through the match - but now, she only had fumes to carry her. Still...she had had the time of her life. "Good...good match..."
