Valley Doll vs. Chris Morgan - No Blonde Jokes

And down she went, once again. That seemed to be the key to taking on Morgan. Use her own momentum against her, make her do the work and hurt herself, then take advantage while she recovered. A slow, methodical approach, but effective. So far.

Valley made her way up to one knee and grabbed Chris' head from behind, pulling her back with a hard tug and wrapping her arms around the blonde bruiser's neck for a tight sleeperhold. She tried to get her legendary legs in the action, too, wrapping tight around Chris' waist and giving a nice, long squeeze. "Feel like tapping now, maybe?"

"Unngh!" Chris groaned out as Valley Doll applied a sleeper hold.
However, when she pulled back, the larger blonde grabbed the second rope on with each hand, keeping the Slamazon from toppling her to laying position. The last thing Chris needed was for Valerie to get her completely off of her vertical base while applying a sleeper hold from behind. Already she could feel herself starting to feel a bit dizzy as the hold began to wear away at her.

Using the ropes, Chris began to rise to her feet. Even when the long, tanned legs of her foe caught her around the middle, the bigger blond continued to rise back to a standing position, red faced from both effort and the effects of the sleeper. The crowd roared it's disapproval, a "Choke her out!" chant starting up.

Grimly Chris brought her hands to Valley's wrists and began to pull, looking to use raw force to pry the other wrestler's hold off of her. While doing this, the Wrestle Angel refugee turned, putting her back and it's not-so-precious at the moment cargo to it. Then she would leap backwards, looking to smash Valley Doll between herself and the corner.

Oh. Crap.

Staying in this corner was starting to look like a tremendously bad idea for both of them. Valley hadn't anticipated Morgan using the ropes to keep herself from falling over - a smart move, she had to admit,and one that allowed her to not only stay up, but start rising to her feet, with Valley still holding on for dear life. The crowd's chanting didn't really help matters either - like she wasn't trying to choke her opponent out. This wasn't a loving embrace, she was squeezing Morgan for all her worth, with every fiber she could muster. It just wasn't enough.

Valley tried to use her superior position to keep her hands around Chris' neck, but the giant's strength was just too much. The hold was forced back, little by little, and to make matters worse, the struggle distracted her from realizing that Chris had turned. Distracted her right till the last second, when it was far too late and the turnbuckle was closing in. "No, no, no-"

She crashed hard into it and immediately fell to the ground, letting out a shriek as she rubbed her back. Desperate, she tried to roll out of the ring, hoping it would do for an escape route.

Chris felt a surge of relief as she managed to smash Valley back into the corner, the crowd giving a sympathetic 'Ohhhhh!' Quickly she turned, and saw her opponent rolling for the edge of the ring, apparently looking to make an escape.
*Oh no you don't!* she thought.

Knowing she needed to keep the pressure on her smaller blonde counterpart, Chris leaned out from between the second and third ropes as Valley rolled out under the bottom one. Reaching out with her right hand, the heavenly titan tried to grab onto Valley Doll's flowing blond hair, hoping to catch her before she could retreat out of range.
"Going so soon?" she'd ask if she caught her, in the same tone you would ask a visitor who just announced they were about to leave while trying to use the hold to tug on the luxurious locks and make Valley climb back onto the ring's apron.

Just a little bit more. If she could get on the floor, finish the retreat, she would still be in a ton of pain, sure, but at least she'd be on the road to recovery...

That thought was crushed when she started to feel some giant fingers intertwining with her heavenly hair, pulling at her scalp. She groaned, forced to rise up to a knee on the ring apron as she was pulled. "Come on, not the hair, not the hair!"

Running out of option, she tried to make a guess where Chris' kneecaps were behind her and swung her elbow out, looking to give her a solid hit right on the bone.

"You're the one trying to run away!" Chris called back.
The ref, for her part, was admonishing the bigger girl about using Valley's hair as a handhold, but Chris turned her loose once she got Valley back up onto the apron to begin trying to put on an inverted face lock, which usually began moves like the dragon sleeper, looking to bring her smaller opponent back into the ring with that controlling hold.

Valley Doll, however, insisted she had to go.

Chris let out a startled yell as the elbow caught her on the knee. With Valley's awkward angle there wasn't a lot of power behind it, but still the placement of the sharp elbow against the bone still hurt enough for Chris to release her fellow Californian and step towards the middle of the ring. Maybe that was for the best, for if Valley was recovering outside of the ring, that meant that Chris would be doing the same thing inside.
Drawing herself up to her full height, Chris gave a toss of her hair and crossed her arms under the swell of her breasts to settle herself in to wait for Valley to return to the ring.

It was a desperate sort of hit, bone cracking against bone, and it honestly wasn't that pleasant for Valley, either. She jarred her funny bone with it, sending that weird sort of pain all up her arm as it vibrated. Hardly debilitating, but an irritating sort of pain, all the same.

Still, it made Chris let go of her, and Valley fell to the floor and had a few second to recover, catching her breath. The referee went to the ropes and started the slow count, getting all the way to three before Valley noticed that Chris was just waiting for her in the middle, not following up, not the least bit worried.

"So it's like that, huh?" Valley eyed her from the apron, before grabbing the bottom rope and pulling herself in. She was still feeling those earlier hits, but she had enough energy to fight now, at least. She moved back into a grappling position and started to circle Chris. "Ready for round 2?"

"Hey, I learned early not to go chasing people and leave the ring." Chris shrugged as she answered the tanned blonde's comment. "You have good hair though, really soft."

When asked if she was ready, Chris smiled and uncrossed her arms, spreading her legs wide and assuming a stance of her own.
"Whenever you are." she replied.

Coming forward, trying to get within range, Chris remained wary for any of the Doll's startlingly powerful kicks. Once she got close, she tried a gambit of her own, faking a grab at Valley's head and shoulders, only to lunge lower, trying to get her arms around her waist and pull her lighter opponent into one of her powerful bear hugs...

"Why, thank you." Valley took a moment to toss her hair about, giving it a quick flip to poke a little fun. "Hard to keep it up, sometimes. You know how it is."

A compliment was a compliment. She'd take it.

She readied herself as the giant closed, and when Chris went high, Valley went low, looking to duck under her grasp and come out behind her...that plan was squashed, though, when Chris reached down and scooped her up in a bearhug, crushing Valley against her powerful frame. Valley cried out and wiggled in the mighty maiden's powerful grasp, gritting her teeth as her ribs were pulped and pumped.

Eager to get out as soon as possible, she tried to rear back and punch Chris right in the face.

"Unngh!" Chris took the hit to the face with low grunt.
*Another hit to the face...really need to repay that debt before the match ends.* she reminded herself.

Turning the pain into anger, she snarled and bore down harder with arms, increasing the pressure around the former Slamazon's middle. She also rested her face against Valley's belly, just under the curve of her breasts, a defensive move to try and present a less vulnerable target against anymore of Valley's counter punches.
The crowd roared it's support to Valley Doll, trying to rally their fan favorite....
