Hiro Minamoto (D) vs. Tsume Ama

And as Tsume raised her shoulder up, the kick out went through as the referee was quick to stop her hand on a time as she held up two index fingers for Hiro and the crowd to see.

"Two! Shoulder up, shoulder up only two!"

Hiro sighed, really he didn't expect any competitor to be put away so quickly but didn't change that he was annoyed he couldn't do her in quickly when he had the edge. Still, this match had only began so Hiro needed to try and wear her down more as he'd work to try and pick Tsume up after he stood up. If Hiro was successful, the hulking muscle mass would aim to toss Tsume to the ropes clearly aiming for some follow up clothesline when he expected Tsume to bounce off the ropes to try and take her down again.

Tsume would be able to kick out as she heard the referee say that she was only able to count to two while holding up two fingers in the air. This would lead to Hiro getting off her as the Japanese wrestler thought she could use this to recover an little. However the musclebound wrestler would then pick her up as he threw her towards the ropes which would cause her to bounce off them as she stumbled towards him.

This would allow him to knock Tsume off her feet as Hiro was already running towards her with his arm extended as the Japanese wrestler twist her body in an 540 degrees as she ended up laid out on her back again.

The crowd seemed to pop somewhat as the clothesline sent Tsume end over end as Hiro's power was on display, showing some promise from the newcomer though as Hiro seemed prideful in his offensive he figured he had to keep the pressure up and decided to try something on the more "technical side"

He'd work to move by Tsume's legs, Hiro was...relative new to his wrestling transition, so a more complex submission was out the window. So he went for what seemed easiest as he'd work to try and flip Tsume over, and if he had been successful he'd grab her right leg and try to pull back going for a single leg Boston Crab.

After landing on the canvas with an loud thud as an result of the clothesline that Hiro just hit her with , Tsume just lay their in pain. As the strength that the other wrestler possessed was more then she expected as she would feel her opponent flip her over. Forcing the Japanese woman to lay on her chest as she felt Hiro grasp her right leg as she thought at first that the musclebound wrestler was going to attempt an figure four leglock.

Only to be proven wrong when he would crouch down as he pulled her right leg back putting pressure onto her lower back as he caught her in an single leg Boston Crab that had her attempting to reach the ropes so she could escape it.

As Hiro managed to lock in the single leg Boston Crab, the referee was quick to keep her eyes on Tsume as Hiro applied the submission; checking either for evidence she wanted to give up or if she would make it to the ropes. Hiro could already feel the fight from Tsume as she began to scratch and crawl underneath her to the ropes.

Naturally, Hiro attempt to try and apply more pressure pulling harder on Tsume's leg as he remained locked in place...for the most part. But he was forced ahead a few inches as Tsume stretched getting closer and closer to the ropes as Hiro was not sure he could keep her from reaching given the distance.

With the musclebound wrestler locking in an single leg Boston crab , Tsume knew she had only one way to break free. As she began to scratch and crawl her way towards the ropes in order to escape the hold. However just as she was getting close she would feel Hiro apply more pressure on her lower back as he would force her to stay put until she adjusted to the pain.

However once she did she would look at the ropes , and realize she was close as she just needed to get an inch or two closer as she tried to crawl towards it as she reached as far as she could with her right arm to touch it.

Hiro managed to sit and stop the momentum of Tsume, all while the referee checked to see if she'd show any signs of submission but Tsume seemed to have heart as she stretched for the ropes which thanks to her earlier clawing to them were quite close. So close in fact that despite Hiro trying to pull on the single leg crab with all he had he could not stop Tsume who managed to reach the ropes successfully.

"She's on the ropes, let go. One...!"

Hiro was naturally disappointed, but broke the hold at one as he moved to give Tsume space showing he was a fair competitor while she managed to earn a reprieve.

It took a lot of endurance , and willpower but Tsume manage to crawl towards the ropes despise the pain she was in. As she would grasp onto the ropes with her hand as the referee acted right away by telling Hiro to release her. Now he did not do it fast enough it seemed as the ref would begin to count , but after the ref had counted one he would release her.

The Japanese wrestler would first caress her foot to ease the pain , and then use the nearby ropes to pull herself to her feet.Once she was standing again she would turn around so she would face the muscle bounded man as she took an defensive stand as she tried to stay out of his reach for now.

And as Hiro waited for Tsume to stand and get in position, he saw her take a defensive stance as Hiro decided to try and advance upon her position. His aim seemed simple enough, try to corner her against the ropes or the corner and use his power to get into a grapple to try and regain the advantage once more.

Tsume would slowly be boxed in by her opponent as she was forced backwards as she soon felt the cornerpost against her back.With nowhere left to go the Japanese wrestler only had one other option as she would attempt to leap forward , and hopefully tackle the musclebound wrestler down the canvas if she could catch him by surprise.
