Yuki Onna vs. Ami Takeuchi - Snowmaker

Standard Match
Victory Conditions: Gained by either pin, KO, or submission from the opponent.
Normal rules apply.

Yuki Onna wasn't having the best of time here in AFW. After her humiliating defeat at the hands of Gwendolyn DuPont Bettencourt, she suffered another humiliating defeat at the hands of Manami Kuroda. It almost convinced her to just give up and stop wrestling, but after some encouragements from her family and friends, she steeled her resolve and worked hard to improve herself as a wrestler. She had been spending a lot of times training not only at AFW gym, but also at her family dojo. She had been learning a few new moves that were more suitable for her frame than her previous ones, and after weeks of training, it's about time to see the result.

Already putting on her wrestling attire, Yuki then stepped out into the arena once her entrance music was played. This time, she looked determined as she stepped down the ramp, heading over to the ring. She was greeted by the crowd with a decent pop. Some of them were expecting her to lose against her opponent, who herself was quite a big name here in AFW. Still, there was no time to falter, because she knew that she could use her new moves against such opponent.

Yuki Onna:

Once she finally reached the ring, she calmly climbed up the steel steps before entering the ring. She acknowledged the crowd with a nod before she removed her oversized sleeves to allow greater mobility during the match. She was thinking that she should be designing a new outfit for herself to match her new moves. But for the time being, she would make do with what she had at the moment.

After handing her detached sleeves to the ringside crew, the blue-haired martial-artist would then head over to her corner, leaning against it in order to wait for her opponent to show up. Her opponent tonight would be Ami Takeuchi, who was not only a well-known wrestler here in AFW, but was also a second-generation wrestler. No matter what, Yuki would not take her lightly, or else she would have to suffer another defeat.

Waiting for Ami to show up, Yuki tapped her boots on the canvas, draping her arms over the top ropes connected to the turnbuckle. Her crimson eyes were looking at the direction of the entrance as she waited for her opponent's appearance. Her entrance music had faded some time ago, and would be replaced with her opponent's. Making sure to hide her anxiousness, she kept putting on her calm, stoic face while looking at the entrance.

After having left her full time modelling career for a part time bit in the wrestling career and part time gig in the models word, the supermodel in the end narrowed her career path down to only being a pro wrestler as she left the model word completely. This meant she was free to accept more matches from Tension and even extended her approach to the Friction ring more often than she previously has. Luckily for her, it would seem as if she would be given an easy opponent- the supermodel would never say no to a match against someone who is on a bit of a rough patch in their careers as it would mean a sure win for the supermodel and she would rack up her career win records.

Standard attire:

Backstage, she changed into her usual red wrestling top with a matching ruby-red wrestling shorts and black wrestling boots. Her hair hung loose as she did some standard stretching in the locker room before moving out towards the gorilla position. She would wait for her opponent's entrance song to cut before her own theme would cue, whereby the supermodel would then walk past the curtains and head out to the arena. The supermodel was a Former Tension World Champion, she was confident about herself and that was evident with her arrogant walk to the ring.

She would walk past most of the Friction fans to ignore their presence and make her way into the ring. She would enter the ring and yawn while stretching one of her hand, "So I hear you are thinking to quit pro wrestling?
Not a surprise there hehehe" she would giggle as a mean taunt.

Yuki was aware of the fact that she was about to face the former Tension World Champion. This wouldn't be an easy fight, but she kept her focus as she watched her opponent, whose blue hair was much darker than hers, made her way to the ring. And then, she heard her taunt, and Yuki had to suppress a flinch as she was reminded of all of her failures. She clenched her fists and hardened her expression, not going to give Ami the satisfaction of seeing her faltering.

"No..." Yuki said firmly as she replied to Ami. She had been talking a lot in the ring lately, which was something that the audience noticed. "I'm not quitting. Not now, not ever..." she said, locking her gaze on the red-clad wrestler before her. "If you think I'm an easy opponent for you, you're wrong..." she added, stepping away from the corner in order to meet her foe head on. She retained her cool head even though she was actually feeling very nervous. She was aware of how dangerous her opponent was, and there was no time for her to hesitate against her.

Making sure that both wrestlers didn't do anything drastic, the referee got between them as she began a short briefing of the rules of the match. Yuki nodded along the way, still staring at Ami before the referee was finally done. Yuki prepared herself for the match, getting into her stance before the referee called for the bell, starting the match.

With the match was on session, Yuki kept her distance, trying to gauge her opponent. She knew that she was no match to her in grappling, despite her improvement. So, Yuki would circle around Ami for a few seconds before she finally made her move, rushing over to the blue-haired wrestler in her attempt to deliver a shin kick to the side of her body.

Ami would raise her eyebrow at her opponent's prompt response as she simply denied her statement. Her simple No followed by another set of determined words and sentences as she refused to be intimidated by her blue haired opponent nor get her words to psyche her out before the match even begun. True enough, Ami was a former champion but Yuki was not going to let that fact to intimidate her from giving everything she has against the supermodel.

Ami brought her right finger and began to bite her fingernails as she leaned back slightly, not impressed by her opponent's speech at all as she waved her other hand off to disregard whatever Yuki would proclaim. The referee would step in between them before things would boil over before the match even began.

As the bell rang, the supermodel would bring her hands out in front of and approach Yuki, however it seemed she had riled up her opponent real good and Yuki would land the first blow by rushing over to Ami and striking the side of her body with a shin kick! Ami would wince in pain and stagger forward, favoring the leg on which her shin was kicked.

Yuki had successfully landed her hit on her opponent, and she looked to find a chance to follow up with another attack. Seeing that Ami was staggering forward due to her kick, Yuki would shimmy to the side, eyes quickly scanning for an angle where to attack from. Deciding to move to the left side of her opponent, Yuki would close in again, preparing to launch another attack. This time, she would try to grab Ami's arm by her wrist, planning to forcefully pull her arm and bring her closer to her.

From there, Yuki would attempt to bring up her knee as she would yank Ami closer to her, aiming to drive her padded knee right onto her side, hoping that the momentum of her pulling the red-clad blue-haired wrestler closer to her and the force of her knee strike could deal a significant damage on her. Yuki was planning to execute fast-paced strikes and attacks to weaken her opponent even further, and thanks to her training herself this whole time, she already had a couple of moves to use. Now, the only one thing left to do was to look for the right moments to perform those moves.

The supermodel was caught off guard by her opponent, a kick in the shin was always an annoying tactic when you are the one on the receiving end as Ami was feeling that pain around her delicate shin area. She would favour her leg while wincing in pain, completely forgetting about her opponent. That was a mistake the supermodel would soon learn to regret as her opponent would move in to grab her arm and pull at it, bring Ami closer to her while raising her knee up high to smack the side of her side with her knee strike.

Ami let out a loud girlish grunt in pain as that really rocked her world, her head felt like she was hit with a truck as she staggered back, clutching the side of her head as she was left groggy after being hit by that knee strike.

So far, Yuki was doing good, and she couldn't help but smile a little. And the crowd seemed to be cheering for her, making her more pumped up to continue her momentum. So, she would rush over to Ami, who was staggering back from her blow earlier and try to grab her by her wrist, and with a ferocious yell, Yuki would try to send her towards the nearest corner with an Irish whip.

Hoping that she managed to send Ami crashing into the turnbuckle, Yuki would take a few steps back, going for a running start before dashing towards her opponent, her blue hair fluttering back as she would leap towards Ami, attempting to deliver a running bicycle knee right onto her face. It was a new move that she had learned recently, and she named this move Heavy Snow.

After getting nailed by that sudden and vicious knee strike, the groggy supermodel was caught by the wrist and whipped across the ring in a classic Irish whip move. Her back hit the corner turnbuckle and Ami settled in the corner, clutching her head and moaning in pain.

Ami attempted to play off her injury worse than it actually felt. Covering her face with her hands but leaving some room between her fingers to have a watchful eye on her opponent. When Yuki ran towards her Ami and attempted a bicycle kick, the supermodel would duck down at the last moment to avoid her extended leg. After ducking down low, Ami would attempt to shoulder tackle Yuki's trailing leg in an attempt to dis-balance her opponent in a really awkward and painful way.

Yuki clicked her tongue when Ami managed to duck under her bicycle knee, misreading her opponent after seeing her playing off her injury worse than it actually was. With her knee hitting the turnbuckle, Yuki tried to pull back and continue with her attack, but before she could do that, the other blue-haired wrestler suddenly went for a shoulder tackle on her other leg, and the attack caused an intense pain in her leg as she lost her balance.

"Aughh!!"

Flailing her arms desperately in order to retain her balance, she still ended up falling down. Grimacing as she brought her hands to her aching leg, she immediately tried to put herself in a defensive position, not wanting to give her opponent any chance to take advantage of her stunned state.

With a little bit of sly tactics and play acting, the supermodel had managed to tempt her opponent into charging at her, only for Ami to bait Yuki to the corner. The supermodel would duck down under her opponent's leg and shoulder tackle Yuki's trailing leg, taking her down in an awkward manner.

Ami would grin in satisfaction, brushing her hair back with a devilish grin she would crawl at Yuki on all fours, looking to target that leg. The supermodel would rise back up on her feet, looking to stomp down at her opponent's injured leg before attempting to leap up high and drop her knee down right against the calf of Yuki's leg!
