Ryan and Lucy vs Daisuke and Lita. (For Maxy.)

John was hoping that Sion wasn't going to be up to anything, if he did then John of course wouldn't hesitate to intervene. Although something told the master of creation that it'd only be a matter of time before the shit hit the fan and things imploded. Call it artist's intuition, still John would just stand where he was for the time being. Keeping a close eye on the in ring action, that's where the events were after all.

Meanwhile in the ring Lucy was trying to keep Lita down, she was just as persistent as Ms Grange. While that was an admirable trait, the British girl wished it wasn't towards her. Funny how that turned out, but Lucy just had to try and brace against the storm. In fact the idea of tagging in Britain's paragon seemed more appealing, but Ryan needed to try and lessen the pain to his legs. But Lucy was sure he'd be able to go, Mr Knight was the bulwark of the UK Elite after all. While Ms Grange kept the hold applied to Lita she took a brief glance at the British paragon. And it seemed that Lita was taking advantage of this, Ms Grange winced loudly as her opponent drove elbow shots into her gut.

Still the British girl was going to try and maintain this hold, while at the same time trying to move closer to the corner of the UK Elite. That was what Lucy decided was her best bet, it'd keep things in the favour of them after all, but Ms Grange knew that it'd only be a matter of time before Lita wormed her way out of this one. It was just a case of trying to do what she could while she could.

Just as Lucy was wanting to hold on, so was Lita wanted to get out of it.  Lita had a height advantage to work with, which meant nothing in her current position, but she was trying to change that as she began to stand back up.  As she felt herself raising up and hopefully taking Lucy with her she would fire a few elbow shots to Lucy's mid-section, hoping to break free.  If she managed to escape Lucy's grasp she would then quickly grab hold of Lucy and attempt to drop her with a reverse sto.

If that connected Lita would be back down as well, trying to get some of her breath back.

Who knows? In another time and place Lucy might have respected Lita's grit, but here and right now? It was more of a pain for Ms Grange than anything else, made winning the match that much harder. Although Lucy or her Brother weren't ones to shrink away from hard work, they rolled their sleeves and got shit done. It was how they were raised.

Which was why Lucy kept the headlock cinched in, even when Lita was wailing on her. But still there was a fine line between brave and stubborn, and Ms Grange didn't really know that one to be honest. And now she was going to pay for it, Lita's persistence would pay off for her. The close proximity of the two girls meant that with Lucy reeling from those elbow shots it was all too easy for Lita to cinch in a reverse sto, Lucy barely had time to blink before she got smacked down hard.

Although that was followed by a groan from her mouth, Ryan had slapped the turnbuckle and said "LUCY! Come on!" Lucy lifted her head. It felt like a Sunday morning, when all Ms Grange wanted to do was lie down and neglect her training for a couple of hours. But no luck there, so after taking a couple of deep breaths and shooting one last glare at Lita the British girl would make an effort to crawl towards the corner where Mr Knight resided.

While Lita was able to get out trouble for the time being she wasn't able to follow up. Daisuke knew Lita was a tough one and could handle more, but giving the situation she could tell it would be best if Lita got out of there as she had a strong feeling that it would only be a matter of seconds before Ryan got back in there. Lita did not notice Lucy's glare as she was was more concerned on getting to Daisuke as she too had the same feeling that her partner was feeling at the moment.

Lina and Sion kept and eye on Ryan, and would call out once Ryan got the tag, in the event of if Lita still didn't make the tag on her end and alert her that Ryan was coming. While nothing was heard yet Lita was getting close to her corner and actually pulled herself to a kneeing position before making a slight dive towards the corner. Daisuke already had her mind made up for when she would get in there. She guessed Ryan might be running in, and if he did she would be ready for it, but not to think too far ahead too soon she did wait for the tag and when she got the tag she hopped over the ropes and into the ring.

John kept silent, biting his lower lip out of stress. Lucy looked like she had something going for her, but Lita's tenacity helped stop that. Much to the general dismay of the UK Elite, if only all their matches could just have the opponent lie down and just get pinned. But no, it was never that easy. The artist remained where he was, Ryan had given explicit orders not to interfere. If he was attacked then he'd be allowed to defend himself, but that was it.

Lucy dug down deep, for a little thing like her she had a lot of grit. And stubbornness, most guys in her high school usually avoided her. Spitfire was the name that was given to her there, but Lucy knew that she needed to get Ryan in. The UK Elite's tank, get him in there and start dishing out some punishment. Mr Knight was leaning forward, hand outstretched with a look in his eye like a dog desperate to escape it's leash. Ms Grange got on hands and knees, rushing forth in a mad crawl.

The British girl quickly slapped the hand of Ryan, and the young man entered the ring like a bat out of hell. Mr Knight hadn't forgotten the attacks that had been done to him earlier, and he would make no hesitation in his moves aside from a slight limp. But Britain's paragon would make to charge right at Daisuke and attempt to fire a knee right into her gut.

Daisuke looked like she was going to run in as well when she landed but then remembered her planned but made it look like a slight fake, though she did move a bit closer to Ryan.  The guess she made on the apron was right as Ryan ran towards her, and when his knee came up she would dodge to a side and turn to go behind him with a waist lock.  She would then run in the direction of which ever side of ropes were closest to her while holding on, hoping to push him against it so the recoil from it would cause him to pull him back and over for a quick roll up pin.

Mr Knight was a guy who for the most part kept his moves simple in-ring, simple but effective. Well it worked most of the time, but here it seemed that Daisuke caught onto what he was doing. Rushing in blindly swinging about didn't always work, more often than not it did but it didn't here. Daisuke was nimble and managed to wriggle herself around the young man, applying a waistlock onto Ryan.

Ryan grunted as he was pushed forward to the nearest ropes, he was no fool though. Mr Knight had an idea of what was coming next, but he botched the timing. If he had managed to grab onto the ropes then he might have just let Daisuke roll backwards on her own, but the length of this match meant his ability had been worn down.

Daisuke would get the roll up pin applied to Ryan, with the ref girl getting into position.

"ONE!"

"TWO!"

Ryan got himself free of the pin, using his considerable strength to move himself out of the dangerous situation. But Mr Knight wasn't going to retreat, not when he had his opponent now close to him. The way he preferred it, with that in mind Ryan would get to his knees. And try to wrap his arms around Daisuke while standing up to attempt a swift belly to belly suplex, putting his highly toned upper limbs to good use.

While it was close it wasn’t enough to get the win on that exchange. Daisuke knew there was no time to question anything or think differently at the moment, and when Ryan kicked out she knew she had to keep her foot on the gas pedal as they say. She was going to try to follow up somehow but felt Ryan grabbing hold of her and taking her down with the belly to belly suplex. While she let out a grunt upon impact she did not feel that she was beaten, in fact something was telling her that things were about to get more interesting.

She wouldn’t resist if Ryan picked her up for something, but Daisuke did have some tricks up her sleeve that she was plotting on to catch Ryan off guard if the opportunity presented itself. She knew Ryan wasn’t dumb, but she knew what could be done in situations like this, like if say someone went wanted to pull her up off the ground, something simple as not resisting then at the last possible second sneak in a small packing, or getting crafty and getting out of different types of suplexs. She had a number of ways of staying with Ryan, but she too had to be careful as if she was hoping for one thing and something else happened that wouldn’t be good. As for this currently moment , after the impact she took a moment to a get a breath and if Ryan didn’t pull her up she would go to get back up on her own.

As for the crew on the outside, they were feeling mixed with what went down. Daisuke almost pulling the win out did have a good feeling, but how Ryan turned the tables just as quickly not so much. They did have a feeling though that things just kicked up a notch and anything could happen at this point.

Ryan had slammed Daisuke down with authority, more out of payback from her pin attempt than anything else. It had been quite a while since he busted out that move, but it took advantage of his tremendous upper body strength. Being the leader of the UK Elite Ryan was the central powerhouse, the big guy even if he was only two or three inches taller than John. The artist nodded outside the ring and gave a smile, he knew that it was best if he kept his mouth shut right now.

Lucy was kneeling on the apron right now, trying to take a moment to relax. The back and forth battles between her and Lita had worn down Ms Grange quite a bit, but still she liked to believe that Lita had come out worse on the exchange. Lita might have gotten in more hits, but Lucy was thinking quality over quantity.

After slamming Daisuke down with the belly to belly suplex Ryan was intent on attempting to press the advantage, he'd gotten the shot in. Now it was time to try and improve on this, taking a couple of moments to take a deep breath Ryan would do so as he stood up. Britain's paragon would attempt to grab Daisuke by the arm and "Help" her up, only to try and hoist her up onto his shoulders for a Argentine backbreaker submission attempt.

As Daisuke got lifted up, Sion had a feeling he knew where this was going, having seen a set up like this before. Even though it could have been one of a few things he was pretty much on the mark for what Ryan was plotting, though Sion couldn't do anything about it other than watch.

Lina also knew that this wasn't something anyone should be in be for long, and she didn't like Daisuke's chances of surviving as she was in a position to just be bounced around like a rag doll, though one thing did come to mind after seeing Dai in it for a few seconds. She called out to Dai to keep swinging. While she didn't say anything more specific, not wanting to make Dai think too hard, Daisuke flailed her arms for a moment. She felt one of them getting nothing but air at a weird angle, but felt the other make very light contact with the upper part of Ryan's chest. Lina then called out "Higher! Higher!"

With out even giving it thought Daisuke tried to control her swings with the arm that was closest to Ryan's face, which was difficult due to the angle he was holding her at, but if Daisuke could get her aim right she would attempt to smack Ryan in the nose." If she managed to make contact once Lina would called out "Harder! Harder!" wanting Daisuke to bust up Ryan's nose.
