Hikaru Sawazaki Vs. Mighty Yukiko

The running dropkick seemed to have worked perfectly as she drove her boots into Hikaru's chest and sent the woman down onto her back. From there, Yukiko would try and quickly push up to her feet and go running towards the right side of the ring, running at full speed to try and get a decent amount of speed, before she would then try and jump up and land on the middle ropes with her feet.

Looking to jump up off of those ropes, bounce into the air and to a flip backwards in the air, as she aimed to try and come down and hit Hikaru with a Lionsault, trying to land right on top of Hikaru's downed frame!

If Hikaru thought her torso hurt after the dropkick she was mistaken. As she lied on the mat she looked up and saw Yukiko plummeting towards her and it was far too late for her to move out of the way. "Arrrgghhhh!" Hikaru shouted as she was laid out flat on her back after Yukiko successfully came crashing down right on top of her! Hikaru groaned and laid motionless, clearly out of it from taking more punishment at Yukiko's hands. The rookie tried to move but couldn't, stuck on her back underneath Yukiko.

Bouncing up off of the ropes the Mighty One plummeted back down and landed right on top of Hikaru, flattening her opponent against the canvas as she hit her with that lionsault. She landed on top of Hikaru and would let out a huff of air from the impact as they crashed front against front.

The pink haired veteran would in turn try and pin her fellow pink haired veteran of an opponent, looking to try and hook that leg of Hikaru's and try and go for a pin attempt while she had her flat on the canvas.

Hikaru moaned weakly but was still motionless underneath Yukiko as she was flattened against the mat. The count began and Hikaru still didn't move.

"ONE! TWO! THREE!"

Hikaru let out a sigh of pain as the count reached three, the rookie too hurt to even try to kick out. She had no idea Yukiko could bounce back from punishment the way she did, move as quickly as she did, and was as strong as she was. It really was amazing to see although facing off against her in the ring was an eye opener for Hikaru. She waited for Yukiko to get off of her before she even thought to try to roll over, still laying face down on the mat.

The referee slipped in next to them and started their pin count and it didn't take too long before the third count came, Yukiko looked up a bit surprised at first and then let out a sigh of relief.

She would roll over Hikaru's body and start to pull herself up to her knees. She would look at the referee and then get her hand raised by them, shortly after the little celebration and the cheers of the crowd would Mighty Yukiko turn and look at Hikaru, walking up to the downed fighter she would offer her a handshake. " Thank you for a good match, Hikaru-chan." Mighty Yukiko spoke out with a sincere and friendly smile on her face.

Hikaru was laid out and still hurting as Yukiko spoke to her. She groaned and sat up, and accepted the help up by Yukiko, shaking her hand once she was up on her wobbly legs. Hikaru smiled as she gasped for breath, trying to reply. "Anytime.... y-you are really good...... whew....." Hikaru said before stumbling over to the ropes, nearly collapsing as she grabbed onto the top rope, needing time to recover. She knew she needed a minute or two before she could walk back up the ramp without falling over so she nodded to Yukiko and decided to stay to the side and let Yukiko have her moment in the spotlight.

Yukiko would smile towards Hikaru as she heard the words of the fellow Wrestle Angel Veteran. Yukiko would nod her head to Hikaru, " Thanks, though you really gave me a run for my money. Hahaha!" Mighty Yukiko let out with a boisterous laugh.

She would watch Hikaru stumble towards the ropes and then lean on them, Yukiko would look over at her former opponent and then get her arm raised by the referee, taking a moment to bask in the victory before she would move to Hikaru's side, " Want some help getting to your locker room?" Mighty Yukiko would ask as she offered to help the fellow pink haired wrestler.

Hikaru smiled and nodded to Yukiko. Any help was appreciated. "Yes of course, and thank you." Hikaru said with a slight bow to Yukiko. She accepted the help, and the two women began to make their way up the ramp towards the back. "I still am amazed at not only your speed but your strength as well as durability. I've never seen anyone so good at all facets of wrestling before...." Hikaru added, half talking to Yukiko but also half talking out loud as she went over everything that happened in the match in her mind.

Helping Hikaru out of the ring as they would start to walk up the ramp, Yukiko would laugh out a little nervously as she was being praised by Hikaru. It felt kinda weird to be praised by someone who she had just faced off against. " Hah, t-thanks! You were pretty darn tough yourself there, Hikaru." The Perfect Ace spoke out as she would smile towards the woman.

" I'm glad I got the chance to face you." The pink haired fighter said as she would help Hikaru up the ramp and to the backstage area as the crowd cheered for the sign of sportsmanship between the two veterans of the ring.

Winner via pinfall: Mighty Yukiko
