Tag Team Title match! Imperial Order (c) vs Pride Queens! [FWC]

Akiha managed to get a punch in, sending her opponent back a bit. Yet it seemed that Kyoko would return the favor and hit her right back in the face. The crimson hair wrestler would take a step back, reeling from the punch. She would then get ready to send another punch back. She would swing her first forward but at the last second, she would open her hand to make a claw-like shape and slightly alter the trajectory of her attack, so that instead of a punch it would end up being a face rake. Akiha was hoping this would result in her opponent letting go of her hair and being vulnerable for a bit.

If her plan worked, the Japanese wrestler would then rush towards her tag partner and attempt to tag her in. After all, Gwendolyn had her arm extended, ready to get into the action and Akiha could use a moment of rest to gather up her energy. After all being in a punch to punch contest with Kyoko probably wasn't going to end too well.

Amy by this point had mostly recovered enough to walk get to her corner. Her head still hurt but that wasn't going to keep her laid out for this big match. Looking out to the ring she saw Kyoko in control seemingly before Akiha reached out and clawed at her eyes. Moving over to there corner she would try to get up and be ready if Kyoko needed back-up.

"Arrngh!" Kyoko screamed as the redhead resorted to the eye rakes to keep her from stopping her from breaking away and resorting to going to her teammate to tag her out. Standing up and rubbing her eyes backed up and looked towards where Akiha ran off to tag in Gwen.

As per her enlightened prediction, Akiha was indeed losing ground and in dire sraits from her ill-advised attempt at engaging in fisticuffs with a known brawler. Taking part in such an uncouth brouhaha was absolutely below Gwendoyn's noble pedigree, and while Akiha somehow seemed comfortable with sullying her hands with an uncivilized donnybrook, the heiress always preferred a more dynamic approach to her elegant offense.

A tactic she would eagerly demonstrate upon feeling the liberating slap against her palm, the heiress internally taking back some of her earlier criticism of Akiha's brutish tactics once they were wisely utilized in blinding Kyoko and rendering her temporarily sightless.

Rather than hop over the top rope, Gwen would steadily climb the nearby ringpost until she was perched high atop the turnbuckle. The heiress balanced herself by clinging onto the top ropes at her side before gradually rising back up and propelling herself forward in an attempted flying knee strike to the visually impaired Pride Queen.

Kyoko was trying to keep herself focused after the abrupt move as her eye felt like it wasn't going to open for a little bit, taking a second to rub it and her vision started to return to her. Looking up at her she saw Gwen moving up and jumping off the ropes to try and take her down with a knee.

"Nggh!" She groaned as her head reeled back and she fell to the floor and landed on her back. Amy grumbled as she watched from the outside wondering why the hell she didn't just move out of the way?

Performing a tumbling roll immediately after her flying knee strike connected beautifully, the regal aristocrat came to sudden stop a few feet away before propping herself up on her knees. The sight of a practically comatose Kyoko brought a delighted smirk to her face as she crawled to her seemingly kayoed opponent.

Settling her back atop Kyoko's chest, Gwen's pinning attempt would have her hooking one of Kyoko's legs high in the air with her other forearm shoved into her opponent's cheek. Disrespectfully twisting Kyoko's face to the side while the referee initiated the three count that would have the pompous aristocrats rightfully retain their illustrious titles.

"ONE!"

Knocked to the floor by the kick to the face Kyoko was floored for a few seconds. Groaning as she laid there she shook her head while Amy stood on the ropes hitting the corner as if trying to rile Kyoko to get back up to her feet. Though Gwen was still in charge of the whole situation and laid on Kyoko to start a pinning attempt. The ref came and started the count.

"TWO!"

The first count came pretty quickly but Kyoko was already stirring a bit at the second and shortly after that pushed her shoulder up to stop the pin halfway through the third count. Rolling to her side she tried to stay there to avoid getting another pin attempt on her.

On the cusp of rightfully reigning triumphant over the woeful challengers, Gwendolyn craned herself into the leveraged pin while mentally preparing her post-match victory speech until her pretentious thoughts and the pin count would both be interrupted by Kyoko's arm rocketing into the sky. The heiress scoffing in irritation as she shot the referee a piercing glance. Still seated beside Kyoko as the audience collectively breathed a sigh of relief from not having to hear that speech...yet.

"Tch..." Refusing to allow Kyoko the slightest reprieve, Gwen crawled back towards Kyoko and efficiently applied a clenching sleeperhold while draping herself atop the weary Pride Queen from behind. A pompous smirk on Gwen's face as she purposefully positioned Kyoko to be facing her energetic tag partner who could do little to help her, the heiress' way of adding that extra dash of hopelessness to Kyoko's situation.

Kyoko broke out of the pin but that didn't end her problems. Gwen was still right on top of her and was going right back on the attack as she laid on her and tried to wrap her arms around her neck in a sleeperhold. Kyoko let out a gasp as her air was abruptly cut off and she started to fight back, grabbing around Gwens fingers to try and pry them off.

She wasn't going to be going anywhere anytime soon in this hold, trying to push herself closer to the ropes wouldn't work like that so as she tried to move it was mostly to shift her position and get some freedom from Gwen in the hold, desperately fighting to break away from the not so noblewoman.

An inherent benefit to playing the inelegantly sounding role of the "anchor" on her tag-team was that by the time Gwen was called upon to take part in the match, their was a good chance she was facing an opponent who was depleted, exhausted, and a prime target for Gwen to take advantage of.

The heiress having no reservation with swooping in to take direct credit for their win by being the one to have the defining pin or submission, which she presumed was minutes away from happening considering the weary state of her opponent. Gwen wrenching in her sleeperhold until Kyoko's incessant shuffling made it apparent she wasn't quite fatigued enough to succumb just yet.

Gwen therefore guided Kyoko back to her feet while still wrapped in her clutches, only than abandoning her hold to wrap her arms around Kyoko's waist while slotting her golden curled under her opponent's left arm. By bridging back and bucking Kyoko overhead, Gwen would attempt a release backdrop suplex onto the hapless Pride Queen.

Kyoko continued to fight in the hold, not wanting to let Gwen choke her out and be the one to lose this match for her team when things were just starting Amy was itching to get in for once but couldn't do anything from her position in the back like that. Though finally Kyoko was let go of only for Gwen to focus on something else. Grabbing around her waist

Groaning Kyoko felt her trying to lift her up and hooked her legs around Gwens to stop her from doing so properly. Continuing to fight she would drive her arm onto Gwens head a few times to stun her before wrapping her arms around her head. "I don't think so!" She screamed as she attempted to go for a bulldog if she could successfully stop the suplex.
