Michael Northman Vs. Kairi Kamiya

Michael was able to lock in the boston crab and with it he started to bend the body of Kairi back into a nice C-shape. The young blond's attention was turned to the ring side as Ryo yelled out loudly, then the feeling of Kairi crawling and dragging herself closer towards the ropes made Michael a bit frustrated.

The young Northman would shake his head, and attempt to release one of Kairi's legs, keeping a hold of her right leg as he would try and lean back even more and put a more painful bend onto that hip with just the focus of one leg!

Kairi had been oh so close to the ropes, just needing to drag herself another inch or two to reach them...until Michael switched his damn hold over to a single leg version, allowing her to bend her flexible leg further up her body!

It looked bad, nearly hopeless...but luckily for Kairi, Ryo was too the rescue, going behind Michaels and the Referees back to push the rope closer, just close enough, for Kairi to grab onto it and hold it tightly, before backing away as the referee, upon noticing the rope break, started insisting Michael break the hold!

Michael looked over his shoulder when the ref called out of the ropes break. He was certain that she would have needed to pull herself closer at first and with the way the rope were pulled closer towards Kairi the young Northman was a bit confused. 

Though, she had a rope break going and he wasn't about to keep Kairi locked into the hold any longer. The ref managed to get a "One!" count out before Michael released Kairi and stepped back from the woman. Keeping his eyes on the downed Kairi as he walked backwards to the center of the ring and raised his hands, waiting for Kairi to get ready and for them to throw down again.

Having assisted in the rope break behind the referee and Michael's back, Ryo had backed away before the referee turned around, looking innocent...or as innocent as one can look when one had a devious mind and was wearing just a speedo. Now, he moved back to the apron, slapping his palms on the apron in support of the cute Kamiya girl.

Motivated by the support, Kairi pulled her way back up to her feet using the ropes, looking over and seeing Michael waiting like a gentleman for her to be ready to fight again. Rubbing her leg, trying to soothe it a bit, Kairi limped over to Michael, getting her arms up, ready to lock up and start again!

Michael did wait for Kairi to start to get up towards her feet, even though he had his suspicions that something wasn't right with how she managed to get out of the submission hold. He would have to keep an eye out on things, but he wasn't sure if that was completly necessary, Kairi did seem like a nice girl....

The two of them soon stepped forward and locked up with each other. Michael would start to try and struggle with Kairi, trying to force the girl left and right as he tried to wrestle her straight down towards the mat and take back control in this match.
