The United Kingdom Elite (C) vs Juniper Nayle and Nick Solem

Ryan was expecting Nick to press the advantage given to him, maybe try and start applying submissions on the opponent. Only that wasn't the case, Nick seemed to be bailing out and letting Juniper take over. John could tell this wasn't looking good, his partner was open for attack here. If Juniper had come out while Nick was in the ring then the artist would have speared her out her skin, but right now all he could do was bite his lower lip and glare daggers at the opponent. One chance, that was all he needed.

Mr Knight knew what was going on, and was making to get to his feet as quick as he could. Only for Juniper to do it for him, and deliver a headbutt. What resulted was a loud grunt of pain from the British man, followed by hiss from him. "Tch! Hang in there boss!" John shouted from the ropes, the sounds being heard from the ears of the British paragon.

The attack had resulted in Ryan becoming disoriented, a numbing pain in his skull. But Juniper was close, Ryan could tell that. And he wasn't going to just lie down and take this without putting up some sort of fight, with one hand reaching out on instinct to cover his forehead he'd try to fire out a close range punch at Juniper chest or head. Ryan wasn't really aiming at this point as he'd just been headbutted, but he could still hit hard with a meaty upper limb.

Juniper grabbed Ryan, showing her impressive strength to everyone by lifting the heavy man clear off of the floor and headbutting him, hard. She giggled while he was pained, like it hadn't even phased her. It surely did, she didn't want to show it however...

"You sit there and groan. Take care of that headache, youre--UGH!" She had to stop, Ryan hitting her with a good shot. The woman growls. She didnt like it....She absolutely HATED when someone interrupted her. Back home, a simple hit would solve it. But here...

"GrrrraaaaAAAHH!" She begins to walk towards the corner Ryan and John came from. She carried the heavy body to the corner as fast as she could. Hopefully, John was being attentive or else this wouldn't work. She pushes Ryan hard into the corner and barks at John. "You! Tag this interrupting idiot and get in here, now!"

Ryan was stunned for the moment, Juniper had delivered the first attack. And seemed intent on displaying her strength, by driving the paragon of Britain straight towards his corner. If Mr Knight hadn't been headbutted then he'd most likely would have been able to outlift the redhead, but as he was right now the young man was forced to go along with the ride. But she was moving forward, into the corner of the UK Elite.

John was curious about this, but knew what Juniper had in mind. Ryan quickly grabbed hold of the ropes and braced himself against them, it was time to get the artist in here. But the British paragon wasn't going to forget this, such an assault could not go unanswered.

And speaking of that John didn't bother saying anything to Juniper, and he quickly slapped Ryan on the right shoulder. But Juniper was right in the corner of the enemy, and in tag team rules that was the last place you wanted to be. The artist would suddenly grab hold of the redhead by the head and leap back, intent on slamming her neck right into the top rope. In John's mind she was begging for that "Boss I got this!" John would yell out. Ryan would say nothing, merely making sure to get onto the ring apron.

Honestly, Juniper didn't know if she could push Ryan into the corner without messing him up like that. He would have fought back much harder. But anyway, she pushed the big man into the corner and told John to get in the ring so that she could fight him. Quickly, he showed her that he was ready and attentive.

"Guahh!" She cries out as John grabbed her head and slam the front of her neck into the ropes. He got her quick. She had to get out of the way, at least tried to get away. She tries to back up, coughing a bit. "Good...Good...Come to me..." She rubbed her neck and puts her hands up.

Ryan had managed to get himself to the apron, time to rest up. He knew that Nick was fresher than he was, that was not good. Still one thing was for certain, that Mr Knight could certainly outpower Juniper's tag partner. Ryan had hoped that John would be able to mark and deal with Nick, but plans change. Besides Juniper had moved things right into the deep end for herself, which the British paragon found perplexing.

But regardless John was now the legal man for the UK Elite, and he delivered a spiteful welcoming gift to the redhead. That was just a taste of what could come, the artist was just as capable in the squared circle as his boss was. In a different way that is, skilful submissions. One could say that John had honed it to a literal art form, if he was contemplating that.

John slid under the bottom rope, intent on moving right at his opponent. He wasn't going to try and let the opponent get away, not when the chance was present. And the master of creation kept to being on all fours as he neared Juniper, hoping to try and grab the closest leg of the redhead in the hope of applying a kneebar. Juniper was a bit of a big girl, what better place to try and start wearing her down than the lower limbs of her.

Nick hadn't much say in her actions. Sure, he was her legal guardian but, she was too free a spirit for him to even attempt to tame. He watches Juniper push Ryan into the ring and force the two to switch. All because sue didn't like how Ryan interrupted her. He already knew that she was in trouble...Hopefully she could handle it.

Juniper coughed, holding her neck and taking some well needed steps back. When she finally felt better, which was quickly, John was already crawling on all fours to come at her legs. She gasps, falling hard like a tree that was just cut. Her back slams into the floor and John quickly worked on her leg. A good idea would have been to get to Nick as quickly as possible.

But, sue loved to take the hard way out. She grins wildly at John while he worked he leg. "G-Go on. Work all ya like! My legs are like concrete!" She laughs, though her voice showed strain. Sue let him do what he pleased while forming an idea.

John had the enemy right where he wanted them, close to his corner and down on the ground. Being the submission expert that he was it made perfect sense, and Juniper had literally handed the chance to him on a big sliver platter. How could he refuse such a kind offer?

So with that in mind he'd locked in a really effective move in the form of the kneebar, rather intensive a move for this time in the match. But Juniper had sorta ticked off John, and this was a title defence. No quarter given and all that jazz, so the artist was eager to give the redhead some taste of what could lay in store for her and Nick.

Juniper's boast however made Mr Carnaby lift an eyebrow in response. "Masochist?" he asked her. John wasn't really surprised, after all those who covet injury would find it in no short supply in the squared circle. But the artist didn't really give a crap right now, all he wanted to do was milk the kneebar for all it was worth. He'd keep at it too, Juniper might want to consider trying for the ropes or doing something. After all her legs might be good, but John knew ways to make them useless.

She didn't lie, her legs were pretty strong. However, John's submission was still doing a number on Juniper, and she had to find some way to get out of this or show John well....Something! Her leg would be screwed if this went on for too long.

And then John used a word that she didn't like. A word that sparked the breaking of a new wall of anger. "What did you say?" She says, a tinge of laughter in her voice. She attempted to once again display her strength by lifting her caught leg, and John, off of the floor and slam them both back down. "Tell me what you said!"

John was focusing on one thing only, wearing down Juniper. This move would hurt her, and she was going to know that. The damage he'd already done on this lower limb was going to affect Juniper for the rest of the match, which was exactly how the artist wanted it. Get the opponent whittled down from the bottom up, meant they could be more on the ground. Which was exactly where John wanted em, just the way he liked it.

Still Juniper seemed intent on trying to put up as much of a fight as possible, only in a way that John didn't expect. The redhead was trying to lift her legs up, and attempting to take John with it. The artist was taken aback by this sudden display of strength in an unorthodox manner, and was briefly held up alongside Juniper's legs.

But the master of creation let go and as Juniper attempted to slam them back down John would slide back, on his hands and knees. He winced slightly at the sudden friction with the squared circle's mat, and then Mr Carnaby was in a kneeling posture. "Oh, a masochist and a hellion. What a delightful combination eh John?" Ryan said from the corner. John said nothing and merely gave a small roll of the eyes at the comment of his boss. He then slowly stood up and would try to near Juniper again, she'd gotten out of that hold though. The one thing John didn't want, best to try and slowly near her and try something else.

She had gotten him to let go at last. And to boot, she gave John a bit of a shock in showing him that she still had plenty of strength. She had one of those smirks. One that Ryan might recognize as an 'I'll show you' type of smirks that a girl he knows may have given him before.

Juniper rose to het feet, though one leg noticeably shook a bit due to John's submission. But, she went on and backed away. By this point Ryan has repeated John's remark. "Both of you are in some trouble, champions or not..." She laughs. Juniper wanted John to come to het, out of his corner and away from Ryan. Just a bit further...
