Hye Choi-Jeong Vs. Artemis Michelle Armstrong - Natural Disaster Imminent

Groaning and grunting as she was forced through the painful hold that was the nasty camel clutch that the mighty Artemis was putting her through, the blue haired Korean would suffer through it as her body was bent backwards more and more with each passing moment....however, she soon found a limit to how far her body could bend backwards.

Moving her hands down to the canvas, as she'd try and shift her knees underneath her, as she would try and push upwards! Trying to lift Hye up along with her as she tried to push up towards a stand, looking to lift the blonde up on her back before shed' try and reach back over her head and grab at Artemis by the back of hers.

With a powerful yank the blue haired wonder would try and swing Artemis over her head and down onto the canvas in front of her.

This was working pretty well. Artemis knew that Hye would be a little too stubborn to make a submission work here, but her hope was to get her nice and weary. That big body wouldn’t move half as well when it was sapped of all that youthful energy. All that muscle mass became a big disadvantage without the will to move it. Took one to know one.

Problem she had here was just the technical ability. She may have been putting a lot of strength into the hold, but maybe it was a little stupid to think she could properly lock Hye down with power alone. It wasn’t until she felt the Korean shuffling underneath her that she even noticed something was wrong. By the time she thought to do something about it, Hye had risen from the floor and a pair of hands suddenly at her shoulders threw Artemis clear over the blue-haired wrestler.

Her back hit the ground with a splash, shaking the ropes at all ends. The actress wasn’t remotely pretending when she let out a breathless shriek as her back arched and a hand immediately came behind to soothe it. Her foot stomped into the floor with a long hiss between her teeth. Not a fun time, not at all.

The rise up to her feet had been a rather arduous journey but Choi-Jeong would rise to the occasion as she took to a stand and then threw Artemis down onto her back, the ring ropes shaking quite a bit from the impact of the muscular woman. The Korean would back away a step and groan as she had been worked over a fair bit....though now she thought it would be time to fire back with a few painful holds and slams of her own!

Looking to reach down for Artemis head and arm and guide her up towards her feet, the Tsunami would try and shove that head of the blond's in between her well trained muscular thighs and wrap her arms around that waist of hers next. With a mighty heave, Choi-Jeong would try and haul Artemis up onto her shoulders!

Keeping her seated on them for a few seconds as she wanted the realization of what was happening to sink in, before she'd try and swing her down with godly force!! Looking to slam Artemis with a mighty powerbomb into the dead center of the ring!

Yaaaaayyyy, this was going fantastic.

Fucking not.

Artemis wasn’t even really sure anymore how this fight got away from her so quickly. Her and Hye had been going back and forth for some time. It had seemed like a pretty even bout as far as the audience was concerned and it definitely felt that way for the American between the ropes. It was like fighting her double. A double obsessed with blue and that traded in the years of stardom for a few extra wrestling classes and a pro career. She was impressive but it wasn’t like there was anyone that could outmatch her in terms of Armstrong strength.

Yeah, that was about half right. Hye had her almost matched for raw power, but the difference was that she knew how to use it. Her entire moveset seemed to make the most of that massive frame to deliver as much stopping power as possible. The empty pair of lungs that Artemis found herself struggling to move with and the bits of bone that were supposed to be her spine attested to that fact pretty well. She could hardly lift a finger let alone bring herself upright.

Thankfully their mutual Korean friend was there to give her a hand, maybe the last one of the night. Only halfway up and Artemis found her head shoved between a muscular pair of thighs. When she found the hands wrapped around her waist, she braced herself for what she knew was coming next. And it didn’t help at all.

Her hair whipped in the wind as Hye threw the Artemis up onto her shoulders. After what felt like a small eternity, the next moments came in slow motion as the Hollywood icon found herself plummeting like a meteorite with an equally resounding force. The ring didn’t so much as quake as it did splash against the impact, sending a current that burst that shook the corner posts at the foundation and rattled the ropes to the breaking point. On the opposite side of the ring, each rung snapped free from its post, sending metal rings and bolts flying out from the ring and out into the crowd before one of the posts broke finally broke free from its wobbly foundation and clattered to the floor. At the center of it all, Artemis laid still as the last few tremors tapered away from the slight crater left in the middle of the ring.

Rolling the heavyweight blonde up onto her shoulders, Hye kept her there for only a second or two as she let the crowd see her on a short display up in the air....then suddenly Hye brought Artemis down with that brutal powerbomb of hers, slamming the Hollywood star like that of a meteor crashing down into the very center of the ring!

The impact of the strong woman sent a shockwave through the ring and with it collapsed the structure, the strain of the heavyweight frame hitting the canvas by the slam of the strong Hye's powerbomb caused the corner posts to fall and the ring to collapse to the surprise of the crowd and the referee.

The ref who had fallen over onto her butt as the ring collapses scrambled to get up and ready as she would see Hye try and go for a pin. The blue haired woman would try and roll her blonde foe up in half, folding that body of hers and go for a pin.

Tonight could have gone better, she had to admit for once.

Artemis didn’t kick off this match expecting an easy ride to the victory seat. Even without all the muscle, Hye had that determined look in her eye of a woman that wouldn't go down easily for anything. The two of them were matched for strength, stature, endurance; there wasn't anything that should have given the Korean a clear advantage over her. Except skill.

Even in her barely conscious state, Artemis was realizing just how thoroughly fucked up she was. Breathless, agonizing silence weighed down on her like two tons of human steel. She wasn't looking forward to seeing the gifs on Twitter tonight.

Hye was better than her, plain and simple. The results spoke for themselves when the dust finally cleared from the center of the destruction and revealed Artemis Armstrong splayed out on the floor with two legs high in the air. Not so much a twinge of resistance came from underneath the Korean’s massive body. Spent, hurt, and all but broken internally, there wasn’t much her mind could think to do except listen to the countdown like an unconscious metronome in her shell shocked noggin.

“ONE!”

“TWO!”

Hye huffed a bit after the mighty slam and as she had rolled the woman up she leaned against her. While she found herself superior in terms of skill, Artemis strength and endurance was a new challenge for her. She had very seldom come up against women who could match her in terms of physicality and as such she had found herself struggling quite a bit at times.

Yet in the end she now had Artemis down for the count and from the look of it she wasn't going anywhere. Letting out a loud huffing sigh as the count began. It was almost a relief for the blue haired Korean. Despite the ring now looking as if a literal Tsunami had washed through the arena....things could have gone a lot worse.

" Three!" The referee brought her hand down for the third time and with that the crowd cheered out loudly, the referee stumbled up onto unsteady feet and called for the bell and Hye would slowly release the frame of Artemis. Shoving her to the side so that she herself could rise up. Forcing herself to stand on steady feet despite that taking a tremendous amount of effort out of her, she waited for the referee to come in and raise her arm up in victory. Stoic she stood with a facial expression to match.

What could Artemis even compare this to?

There was that time the balcony collapsed underneath her for Sword of Dawn and the twenty foot fall that came right after that. She could still feel some of that in her lower back. Or maybe that dud explosion from Tomorrow Never Ends? Hye’s powerbombs were honestly a little too close to the real-life ones for her comfort.

Maybe this was just a bit of well-deserved humility on her part. She had constructed a global career on the simple concept of throwing around people half her size. It was only right some of that negative energy found its way back to her with a vengeance. Although never in a million years did Artemis think she could be facing a blue-haired doppelganger outside of a script reading. Japan was just a country full of unexpected surprises, wasn’t it?

Artemis closed her eyes and groaned, pinching the middle of her forehead in a vain attempt to keep the ceiling straight above her. It didn’t work. After a moment, she could just make out the hazy blue silhouette of Hye’s figure with its hand being raised high in the air. The American could connect the dots, chuckling silently to herself. She let her have her moment, but Artemis wasn’t going to stay in the background for too long. The actress slowly pushed her way up to two unsteady feet before turning around to face her better half. Her eyes looked her up and down, looking all strong and proud, before a smirk upturned at one corner.

“No chance you can chalk that up to luck, huh?” She asked half-seriously, working out a kink in her neck.

With her arm raised up by the referee and standing towering over the downed frame of Artemis in front of her, seeing her former foe starting to come too and soon enough she saw the blonde start to push herself up towards her feet, standing on those wobbly legs of hers as she then saw her looking at her.

The head of Hye tilted a bit to the side as she waited for Artemis to say her piece. What she heard was not what she expected, it caused Hye to crack a faint smile. " Afraid not." She spoke as she returned to her serious expression and stoic mannerisms came back nearly as fast as they had faded. Hye would take a step towards Artemis and offer her a handshake.

"You fought well though." Hye let out as she would close her eyes and nod her head at Artemis.

"Yeah didn't think so." Artemis chuckled. “I was looking for a bit better than ‘well’, but hey.”

The American grabbed the hand offered to her and gave it a firm shake. And honestly, it was a weird feeling. She'd had a pretty large handful of matches and not all of them turned out with her hand in the air. The American had spent so much of her career in the spotlight, on and off the set, losing it all to someone else just like that didn't come natural to her.

This pill wasn't so hard to swallow. For some reason, despite the fatigue and her muscles feeling like they were going to kill her, each breath that Artemis took carried an earnest calm from her chest. In the remains of this shattered and broken ring, the former actress held the Korean's hand and looked into the infinite blue of her irises. Within them she caught the slightest glimpse of something in that gaze. Something familiar.

A smile overtook her lips. "I'll return the favor next time, Blue. And then we'll talk stylists."

Artemis slapped her on the shoulder as she let their hands fall away and carefully - damn carefully - tiptoed her way down the slipshod remains of the ring to the foot of the ramp. From there she made the long walk to the backstage, leaving the mighty Korean warrior to soak in the last bits of limelight.
