The Blue Stonewall

Tessa was clenched in a solid position, her legs braced for a push, and her arms ready for a twist, so when that heave to the side came, she was ready, adapting her posture accordingly so that she was simply moved around Stonewall.

She let out a small smile-it was now a definite fact that this match would be against someone with not just power, but brains. Tessa brought her legs back slowly, as she crept back towards the ropes, aiming to press her back against them to force a rope break, and change the pacing of the match somewhat rather than continue with a test neither had gained ground in.

Stonewall was again impressed with the way Tessa was handling this. She held her ground in spite of the sudden twist and she was backing away towards the ropes. Once she touched them, Stonewall would release her and say, "Not bad. You're actually one of the first few people who was able to survive that part." She returned to her fighting stance as she was doing so.

Then Stonewall would try to grab Tessa by the arm and fling her over to the ropes to make her bounce back to her. "Now, let's see you deal with this!"

Smiling at her foe's compliment, Tessa kept focused, her wrist quickly gripped. She opted to go with the pull, rather than fight it, the young girl would be thrown across the ring, bouncing off the ropes and coming back.

She had every intention of turning this to her favour, as she ran back towards Stonewall, eager to look to counter whatever she tried to throw at her.

Stonewall bounced on her boots a little as she watched Tessa run to the ropes and lean against them before propulsion. She knew that she had a few seconds to think about what her attack should be since she sees the Irish whip as an open canvas to get some easy damage in. But at the same time, the opponent can reverse the attack to turn the match in their favor.

So, Stonewall waited a little for Tessa to get closer and once she did, she would take a few quick running steps forward. Then, she would attempt to go low, grab Tessa's body, and quickly toss her into the air and make her land on her back.

Tessa raised her arms as she flew back towards Stonewall, she expected fully to catch her strong foe the moment she'd try to grapple her. Except this grapple, game alot lower than she was hoping for.

Her lower waist grappled, Tessa would respond far too late as she was hoisted up and over her foe, grunting as she landed on her lower back and ass. Rubbing said back, she'd quickly try to pull herself standing, hopefully before Stonewall pursued.

Now that Tessa was on the ground, Stonewall felt like she had a chance to take advantage of the position her opponent was in. But of course since this was early in the match, she wouldn't have long to act out on her next move. So, Stonewall would try to rush over to Tessa quickly to grab at the other arm that wasn't rubbing her back.

If she can do so, she would also try to pin her legs across Tessa's body and work that arm in an armbar.

Eyes elsewhere, Tessa reacted far too late to prevent her arm been grappled. But where she was in a bad spot, she was determined to put her foe in the same.

Stonewall's legs scaling across her body, Tessa would use her free arm to hook the closest to her head. From there, she'd try to tuck it under her arm, before bending it, in an improvised leg lock, hopefully before Stonewall began to tear her arm off too much.

Stonewall was able to get Tessa in her armbar and would now try to apply as much pressure as she could on that arm. Early pain inflicted to the opponent could earn you the lead as long as they don't try to escape. But Tessa used her position to an advantage as she went to grab the leg closest to her head. From there, Tessa would try to tuck it under her arm in an improvised leglock.

Stonewall would feel this and start to grunt a bit from the pain. She would try to keep applying pressure for a few more moments before releasing that arm. And if she can, she would also try to kick her other leg at Tessa to make her let go.

Groaning as her own arm was yanked, Tessa applied the hold simply to try and convince Stonewall to release her own, rather than actually cause lasting damage that she could later capitalise on.

Surely enough, Stonewall would quickly release, the girl releasing her own leg lock as she did so, choosing not to try and fight to keep the lock on, especially with the girl kicking like a mule.

Rolling backwards, she girl would quickly get back to her own feet, holding that hurt arm, trying to soothe some of the ache away.

Stonewall herself would rub her leg a bit after that countermove. It was pretty impressive, she gives her that, but there's more to come than just one submission. After a few more seconds, she would get back into her fighting stance and walked back over to Tessa. When she was close enough, she would attempt to give two punches to the face and a knee to the gut.

If this worked, Stonewall would also try to grab her head and run with her before jumping and slamming her head and frontside to the mat for a running bulldog.
