Halloween Costume Title Match! "Amazon" Alaina Sanders (C) vs Panther Risako

Alaina took Risako down with the dropkick and she wanted to pounce, landing some impactful offense. She had to take advantage of every opportunity against a woman like Risako who had enjoyed a great deal of success against the amazon.

Alaina got to her feet and made her way over to Risako bending down to grab hold of her on the mat. Alaina grunted and strained as she attempted to lift Risako up quickly with explosive force, flipping her over and sending her back to the mat with a deadlift gut wrench suplex!

Risako was still huffing for breath as she lay on her side, clutching the area where Alaina had so viciously kicked her. Even then, Alaina was stomping towards her. Of course, Risako knew, Alaina wouldn't waste any opportunity against her: both women respected one another too much at this point to go easy on each other.

As soon as Alaina grabbed her by the waist, Risako huffed, and tried to shoot an elbow back, hoping to stun Alaina before she completed the move. If she failed, however, then she would be slammed back in the deadlift suplex, and left lying stunned and battered on the mat!

Alaina was lifting Risako up when the elbow smashed her face! Herded snapped back and she let go, stumbling back a few steps. The amazon knew she was behind the 8 ball in this title defense and had to change that though. Alaina lunged back at Risako looking to hammer her opponent with a clothesline to the chest to try to make up for her previous lost opportunity!

Risako was back on her feet, having been freed from Alaina's grip after elbowing the Wonder Woman sharply in the face. Not wasting any time, she spun around to face Alaina, just in time to see the Amazon lunging straight at her. Reacting quickly, Risako tried to duck low to avoid the clothesline: if she managed that then she would run to the opposite ropes and come bouncing back, aiming to rebound and launch a kick up into Alaina's chest, aiming to maintain momentum and snap an enziguri kick into her opponent's face!

Alaina went for a swing... and a miss. She rebounded off the ropes and ran right into an enziguri kick by Risako! Alaina's head snapped back and she crashed down to the mat on her back in a heap. Her arms covered her face as she kicked the mat in pain, the challenger had been running roughshod over the champion thus far and the Wonderwoman clad Alaina appeared to be down and out on the canvas.

Risako grinned as her boot slammed against Alaina's head, flooring the Amazon with a mighty crash. Circling her downed opponent as she clutched at her face, Risako mimed a cat licking the back of its paw, playing up to the whole 'Cheetah' persona. The audience was both cheering and booing her: hopefully they realized after that Risako was just being in character, she hadn't gone full heel.

Speaking of heels...

Leaning down, Risako grabbed for one of Alaina's boots, and twisted at it, stepping over her leg to roll Alaina onto her front. If she managed that, she would sit on Alaina's back and lean back, pulling the trapped limb under her armpit and stretching at it as she locked in a boston crab!

Alaina felt herself being twisted and suddenly her back exploded with pain as Risako was locking in a submission hold! Alaina was stuck in the Boston crab and well aware that she was really behind the 8 ball at this juncture, gritting her teeth while stifling shouts of agony. Alaina spread her hands out and put them flat on the mat as she tried to assert herself by powering her way out, attempting to straighten her legs to flip Risako over onto her back.

Risako gritted her teeth as she stretched away at the trapped limb, really trying to make Alaina feel that boston crab. It was never going to be easy to keep her bigger opponent down, however, and Alaina quickly demonstrated that by kicking out hard, flipping Risako off of her and sending her thudding to the mat. Groaning, Risako attempted to roll, hoping to whirl up again to face her amazonian opponent...

Alaina made it back up to her feet seeing Risako rising at the same time. The two women locked eyes as Alaina moved in looking again for a grapple! This time Alaina would try to maneuver herself to wrap an arm around Risako's head for a side headlock before flipping Risako down to the canvas while keeping her arm around Risako's head squeezing and trying to sap some of the fight out of her tough opponent.

"Tch...." Risako quickly rolled to her feet again just as Alaina came in for a grapple. She clenched her teeth as the bigger woman forced her back a few steps, before she was suddenly caught in a side headlock! The next thing Risako knew, she was taken to the ground in that headlock, her skull being slowly crushed between Alaina's biceps and her side. Breathing through flared nostrils, Risako rotated her lower body and kicked her legs up, trying to latch them around Alaina's throat in a head scissor, hoping to pry the Amazon off of her....
