Summer Splash 2020: Rising Star Title: Mika Kaminashi(c) vs Mia Yukari Wilson

Being that one a title match, it was even more important for Mia to finally get a good match start going. It was some kind of weakness of her, taking a little bit to get used to the match rhythm and get attuned with the action, but it looked like with the exception of the initial chop, it was Mia the one with the initiative at that point. The challenger had decided to go all out from the very beginning, making a statement to her rival and to everyone looking. Of course people liked their heroes and rooting for their champions, but she was more than willing to get people on her side by showing she is also champion material.

And as far as the match was, it turned out really well. Not only Mia managed to get a good DDT going, now she was throwing a lariat at a momentum driven Mika. That would definitely help softening the champion. If only it had gone that way. Mika was now ready to start proving why she was the Rising Star Champion, and she was going to do it with the tactics she knew best. After using the ropes to gain momentum, she went at the surprised Mia with an unorthodox but flashy move using her butt as a weapon while crying the attack’s name. The champion had a taste for making a good show after all.

That doesn’t mean the hit was weaker because of that. In fact, Mia wasn’t expecting anything like that to happen, and caught by complete surprise the Mustang was hit in the head with her rival’s butt. “Wha-“ was the only thing Mia could muster as her eyes widened in surprise and she was sent face first on the mat, cupping her pained face and a little bit angry about how careless she was, all while the crowd cheered and clapped at the sudden reversal.

Justice can be swift, and Mika’s movements matched the term to the letter, suddenly showing off her blistering speed. It had taken a while for Mika to get there, regretting having gone with that chop to the chest. It was not something that has resembled the kind of offence she is known for. The Lightbringer eventually found the tempo she was looking for. Meticulous, graceful and slow-paced isn’t her style, but one that brings passion, excitement to the fans is what Mika seeks for her performances.

And the crowd was definitely excited once they saw the first showing of her Butt of Justice! Mika’s buttocks struck Mia’s face hard, coming at her like a boxer’s straight punch. The Mustang was definitely not expecting such a move, despite being the very thing Mika is known for. Or perhaps she was simply a deer in headlights. Either way, Mika’s butt hit its target, feeling the smack of flesh upon impact. The Avatar of Justice would land on her two feet while the Mustang fell face-first onto the mat. Mika knew that one had to hurt, but she wasn’t done just yet!

Soon as she landed on her toes, Mika was on the move yet again, making another dash to the ropes. Once she bounces off from them, Mika performs a cartwheel before flipping up in the air, performing a backflip that wouldn’t end with her landing on her feet. But instead, she sought to make a meteor landing with her butt onto the back of Mia!

Mika’s earlier slow tempo and apparent hesitation had definitely faded away at that moment. For some reason Mia couldn’t grasp the champion’s first strike had been very shy, but now she was proving that it had been just a shadow of what she was capable of. It was only logical coming from someone who was the Rising Star title belt current holder. What it wasn’t logical or expectable at all for the Mustang was the kind of attack she received. Yes, expecting some kind of reversal or counter was a wise course of action given the kind of match and the kind of rival she was facing, but Mikas… unorthodox ways caught Mia completely off guard.

But Mika’s first butt strike wouldn’t just be the end of it. From her downed position, face red from the impact and also some embarrassment, Mia could hear her rival running around, probably gaining momentum for whatever she was planning. The only input the Mustang could have at what the blonde was doing was the crowd suddenly breaking into amazed cries of excitement.

It is so interesting how instants like that which should go like a blur can be slowed in time to become longer. For Mia it felt like that since she knew a powerful hit was coming, her mind now getting ready for what was going to come. For the people sitting in the stands it was amazing seeing their champion perform a feat of strength of skill like that. No one but Mika would be able to say how it felt for her, but being in the middle of a backflip just about to slam your rival with your butt, the rush of adrenaline and excitement, must be incredible.

“Ooooof!!” Mia was suddenly squashed in between Mika’s butt and the mat, not being shy in her cries of pain and disgust at the most recent events. Not wanting to be caught in a rush of hits, the Mustang’s reaction would be trying to shove her rival off, releasing herself and trying to slowly crawl on her feet again.

With Mika on fire, there was very little that could stop her now, the momentum clearly on her side. While yes, her fist attack is considered lacklustre, the quick-fire appraisal from that moment wasn’t proof of how terrifying her offence can really be. Mia isn’t the first to be shocked and humiliated by finding out what makes the majority of the persona she plays up as and she would be far from the last. But there is no rest for the wicked and Mika wasn’t planning on giving this horsey a rest.

Mika found herself onto her feet after the atomic butt drop square on Mia’s back. Even with Mia’s attempts to shove her off, the Avatar of Justice wasn’t planning to rest on the Mustang’s back. Although there were options for Mika to choose from, she had to keep the momentum up, this was just the beginning to get the crowd excited!  

The Twin-Tailed Wonder would rush out from the ropes before climbing up onto the turnbuckle, the crowd going wild to see the Second Rising Star up so high this early into the match. But with how much she has been on a fiery hot trail, Mika couldn’t stop at all! She steadied herself, getting a gauge on her opponent who is getting up onto her two feet. Mika wasn’t as high up like the time she was on top of the titantron, but she was gonna take flight once more!

Mika would then leap off the turnbuckle, flying high in the air as the crowd watched in awe. The Avatar of Justice would perform a flip above the Mustang, before attempting to land right on top of Mia with a Shooting Star Press!

Mika was definitely on a roll. The champion had the momentum on her side, and stopping now wasn’t on her schedule as she only wanted to keep the pressure going and retain that title belt she proudly possessed. Mia of course had something to say about that, but the Mustang had been completely taken off guard by a decisive fact: of course the twin tailed champion was a force to reckon and Mia would never underestimate her opponent, but the Mustang was expecting her rival to come at her full force, never butt force!

As unorthodox as they were, Mia was having a really bad time trying to read or predict Mika’s butt based strikes and movements. When she was caught in the first unexpected and flashy butt strike, the follow up were a freebie for Mika since Mia was completely off guard and exposed, open and defenseless at anything the Warrior of Justice wanted to throw at her.

And there she was, a contestant completely taken aback by her rival’s surprising and unexpected tactics. Mia really wanted to regain some composure and try some comeback, but it would be extremely complicated if Mika didn’t give her a break with all those butt strikes. Mia made her best effort to slowly get on her feet, but not seeing Mika was a really bad omen, an omen that crushed her with a powerful shooting star press, sending the challenger flat on her butt, looking completely out of the match.

It wasn’t the first time someone is kept reeling from a butt bash like this, and it wouldn’t be the last. Mia wanted the champion, threw down the gauntlet, and now she was getting all that Mika could bring to the table. The onslaught that is her offence never let up, completely unrelenting to the Mustang who’s struggling to find a foothold in this match. There were few chances to recuperate after those hits, and she just kept coming and coming. Mika’s track days were brought an athletic body that can keep up with the fast pace offence she could bring. And the Mustang is struggling to handle all of it.

The shooting star press was, but part of her repertoire, her butt shining in the air as she flew in the air, the twin tails fluttering in motion as she leapt up high. The crowd watched with awe, seeing a move that wasn’t entirely butt related, but spectacular still. She was worried that move could be countered, but luckily Mia was still flustered after her Butt of Light techniques to bring a retort. She landed onto the woman with a grunt, using Mia as a landing mat to ease her fall. Much to the chagrin of the Mustang of course.

One could expect Mika to go straight for the pinfall after this, but the Avatar of Justice opted to go for something else. As impressive as this Shooting Star Press was, she wasn’t holding her breath that this would put her down for the count enough. No, she needed something more. Much more.

The Tokyo audience was pumped as Mika got up onto her two feet, bringing Mia up on hers along the way. It would take effort to do so, considering she wouldn’t be as compliant after a landing like this. “You good? Sorry, but I can’t go easy on you, love. You wanted this, gotta work for it.” Mika whispered to Mia as she attempted to get her on her two feet. Once she would do so, Mika would then get into the right position, bouncing on the balls of her feet to build up the suspense of what’s about to come next. “Butt of Justice…!” Soon, Mika would quickly pivot round, becoming a blur of blue and white as her hip came streaking around with the intent of clocking the Mustang in the jaw. A move that had the power of a right hook from a heavyweight boxer, they cried as the Avatar of Justice unleashed another divine technique: “HIP BULLET!!”

It was becoming a pretty negative and dangerous trend from Mia’s part to have a rough start to her matches. One wouldn’t able to say how much was about the nervousness and the thrill of being in a title belt match this time, but the Mustang was dangerously getting used to being handed over the first minutes of a match. It always happened the same way: Mia starting confidently and then being caught in several hits and throws that would end in a flashy and heavy hitting movement like a Shooting Star Press.

But that time was different. If the Mustang had been able to come back from other of her really bad starts, it didn’t look like it for this one. After all, she was fighting a very proficient rival, a champion, no less! And then there was that curious style of hers. Mia didn’t even want to think what would drive a woman and a wrestler to find out that her main weapon in a fight could be her butt, but against all odds it worked perfectly, offering a powerful hit and what ailed Mia more, an unexpected factor that threw her completely off guard. Used to fight with more orthodox moves, Mia didn’t know what to expect from Mika now.

Not like she had time to think about it though. The Mustang wailed in pain as she was hit by the powerful Shooting Star Press. The moment she was struck she knew it was time for a pinning attempt, no matter the result it was the most obvious course of action, but it never came. Instead, Mika dragged Mia on her feet. It was a weird decision but after all the title belt needed to be a good show, a champion has a status to defend and maybe going so quickly to attempt to put an end to the match could be seen as cowardice. What Mia wasn’t expecting at all was Mika to try and encourage her. “Don’t worry. I will be fine…” She wasn't going to lie, it was nice from her rival to check on her like that, showing true champion's attitude.

Even if Mia’s body was a little bit battered, her mind was as sharp as usual. When she noticed Mika charging a new attack her instincts activated and she managed to dodge to one side and avoid a powerful hip attack that would have got some damage done. The only problem was that in her haste to avoid being hit Mia didn’t have much time to think of a counter, so she went for a quick and simple headbutt. The Mustang still needed some time to get back in the match.

With her catching fire, it would be very abrupt if Mika was to stop this spectacular showing in favour of a pin. While a Shooting Star Press would have given the Twin-Tailed Wonder a chance to secure an early pinfall, this wasn’t the best time to go for it. The night is still young, and like past opponents, Mika can’t let her foot off the gas with the Mustang. That is what she wanted after all, and that is what she will get—no time for regrets.

The crowd wasn’t bored with such activity going on, the Avatar of Justice’s movements were dazzling, a feast for the eyes. And Mika went for something more spectacular, one that she has pulled out without fail. Of course, the moment of her pulling Mia up to her feet would slow the tempo down a bit, but it would be compared to like a drum roll. Preparing the crowd for something massive. This is but one of many moments Mika planned to make, and this would be no exception.

Mika showed patience, all the meanwhile making sure that things are okay. Just because most of her unorthodox methods can be demeaning and humiliating at worst, doesn’t mean that she had not sportsmanship. It did fill her mischievous side, but Mika Kaminashi was a paragon of light and virtue. There were standards she has to uphold. It did reassure the Brit that Mia was fine. Even after getting a taut butt striking her face hard like that…

The crowd was bringing anticipation to one of Mika’s devastating techniques, rousing with cheers. The suspense being brought to a high level. The Mustang was slowly getting up, but that was fine, Mia wasn’t going to stand for too long. Not when she was about to get lamped by Mika’s Butt of Justice that will level out anyone. Soon as the Twin-Tailed Wonder began to spin, the crowd awaited the inevitable impact of her butt, striking her face yet again. The Avatar of Justice twirled gracefully in the air as if in another life she was a ballet dancer herself, a stark contrast of what was about to happen.

However, the very Butt of Justice would find not Mia’s head. But the air itself around them. Usually, there would have been a familiar impact akin to a sturdy right hook. Instead of finding the momentum stopping after said impact, Mika carried on without anything to stop her. She returned to face Mia once more. And would get a headbutt in return. “Gaahh!” Mika yelped in pain as she was the one finding herself floored after that headbutt, the missed attempt of Hip Bullet had the blonde scrambling for stable footing. But that brief period is where the Mustang struck, sending Mika to the ground, rolling onto her side.

Mia was at some point she saw herself in between the sword and a wall. Being a decent strategist under normal circumstances, her current situation made her decide for a rushed and risky tactic as the headbutt was. The Mustang wasn’t known for taking very well-thought decisions when under extreme pressure, and she had to admit that Mika had the match on her pocket for some minutes now. Really anxious to change the tide, Mia went for some move that could also hurt her and give her a really bad time if added to what she was enduring. And just like that, the moment she proficiently dodged her rival’s hip attack, her forehead connected with Mika’s and sent the blonde to the mat.

Mia took some instants to recover, rubbing her head with her palm as she also got injured from the strike and was feeling a little bit dizzy after all the last development to the match. Seeing Mika on the ground trying to roll away the Mustang knew that if she was going to do something it had to be at that moment since the window of opportunity would close quickly based on how the Champion was doing her best to recover as fast as possible. Without even time to think about Mika’s strange methods of attack, Mia rushed forwards to break the distance separating her from the reigning champion.

Right at the moment there was a crucial difference in between both women’s reserves. While Mia was starting to feel winded up, Mika was as good as new since she didn’t get that hurt since the match started. Mia was definitely resolved to make that change and start softening her rival, and to do so the Mustang had thought of several strikes that would give the blonde a rougher time. It was damn about time to take the fight to her side, and Mia wanted her rival to stop moving and trying to get on her feet too quick, so she jumped in place and attempted to land elbow first on her rival’s midriff to make her lie there a little bit longer.

It was as if a trend was starting to emerge, every single time she would launch her devastating Hip Bullet technique. It wasn’t just Mia; however, the Mustang is not the first person to have dodged such a majestic manoeuvre. The last time she launched that move, she got suplexed for her troubles. And the time after that would find herself getting a blob of ink on her face. And the time even after that was just a reaction from getting sucker-punched from behind. Which is a shame because she liked that move. The way Mika’s form spinning round with such force that the twin ponytails swirled around her like a golden hurricane. The way the Avatar of Justice’s body twisting in a blur, the only thing that isn’t the colour blue, red, white or gold is the primary weapon that would bring about anyone’s downfall. It had worked well the last few times she used it back in the indie circuits, why isn’t it working now? The answer might be left scrambled after taking a full-on headbutt.

The Twin-Tailed Wonder was left crashing down to the earth after her feet left the ground. Writhing on her back, she clutched her forehead, massaging it with her fingers. This is gonna hurt in the morning, with the way things are going. But even the Second Rising Star knew that she couldn’t rest on her laurels and stay there for long. It may have hurt Mika, but Mia didn’t leave without any damage either. She just had to be the first to press on the attack. If only she wasn’t so slow, however as the Mustang is again on the charge.

Mia would be quick on the draw, drilling an elbow right onto the champion’s midriff, air forced out of Mika’s tightly pressed lips in a low hiss. The Second Rising Star would roll onto her side, coughing for air, her right arm draping over her stomach. That left a sore spot, especially as her fingers brushed on it, making her wince in pain!
