[Mister Mirage]

Shoot to Thrill

The main lights dimmed as the music played over the PA. A blue crosshair spotlight immediately came to life, rotating it's sights over the fan throughout the arena. Then a barrage of lights shimmered over the stage.



Finally, a figure stepped out onto the stage, the blue lights raining down over it. Suddenly a pair of LED glasses came to life along with a similar looking emblem coming over the titantron. Luca Leone stepped further out onto the stage as the words Huntress flashed across the titantron and over the emblem. The Lioness held up both hands up, pointing at either side of the audience, holding her fingers up like guns as series of fireworks went off on stage.


"Introducing first, the challenger! Weighing in at 120 pounds, residing in Mexico City, the Azure Huntress, Luca Leone!"

Luca stepped off the stage as the crowd erupted with cheers from the explosive entrance. She walked down the ramp, crossing from each side of the ramp to give high fives and handshakes to a few of front row audience members. The Lioness slowly made her way down to the ring, giving her fans as much attention she could spare. As soon as she approached the ring, she immediately ducked under the bottom rope and rolled in.

Bouncing back to her feet, Luca paused, lifting a hand to her forehead; she turned and gazed out to all the cheering fans in the arena.

 

[Drako Damone]

Ain't About the Money begins to play as the lights dim down. As the beat kicks in, blue and white lights begin to flash while a thin layer of smoke comes across the stage and down the ramp. Flames spring up along the set, a new addition.

"Making his way to the ring, from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing in at 200 pounds, he is the WWFG World Heavyweight champion, Drako!!!!"

An opening appears in the stage, and slowly the champion rises up on a platform, dressed in black with a hood covering his head. Black pants covered by a black hooded, sleeveless trenchcoat, and with matching gloves but shirtless underneath as always. The World championship belt is clutched in hand as looks down to the ring for a few moments before he finally begins to walk down the ramp, throwing the championship over his shoulder.

Drako stops at the end of the extremely long ramp and looks around the arena for a few more moments before he turns and walks up the stairs and into the ring, taking the championship back in hand as he does. He walks across the ring and steps onto the bottom rope, one foot on the second rope as he raises the title to the cheering fans. He steps down and walks to the opposite side to do the same.

Finally he steps down and hands the belt off as he removes the coat and looks to his opponent for the evening  

[Mister Mirage]

The Lioness removed her jacket and began warming up as the champion made his way down to the ring. At their last meeting, Drako seemed to take a disinterest in a match with youngest of the Leone siblings, but Luca was ecstatic to finally be getting a match for the big one. Not only that, but they were about to be duking it out at the freaking Rumble!

Lifting the LED glasses from her eyes, Luca approached her opponent. "See, looks like you made it to the match, kneecaps and all."

 

[Drako Damone]

Drako brushes his hair back from his face and checks his gloves for security. He didn't miss the challenger's comment either.

"Wasn't worried about it. Now, let's get down to the business at hand, shall we?"  

[Mister Mirage]

"Pfft, yeah ok!" The Blue Blossom took a few steps back before tossing her LED glasses into the crowd. The ever so gloomy Drako Damone; he struck her as the type of guy who enjoyed tolerated plain sugar-free vanilla ice cream on the stalest cone available.

"Alrighty then." Luca held her hands up and wiggled her fingers, motioning for some kind of lock-up. "Let's go!"

 

[Drako Damone]

Drako could be all fun and games any other time, but tonight the title is on the line. And he's going to take Luca as seriously as he took Bison because it only took one off night to no longer be the champion.....or a money in the bank cash in after wrestling for an hour but thankfully that's not an issue tonight.

The champion looks to go into the offered lock up with the challenger, but would quickly attempt to twist around behind her and lift her up with a waistlock takedown  

[Mister Mirage]

Ready for a lock-up, Luca certainly hadn't anticipated Drako attempting a hold from behind. The Lioness flailed as she was beginning to be lifted up, and quickly attempted to shift her weight forward to try a keep her feet on the canvas. Attempting to keep the struggle vertical, The Lioness kept one foot planted in front of her while swiftly placing the other behind Drako's leg.

 

[Drako Damone]

Drako frowns as he's unable to take Luca down. However, he's far from done here. Shifting his aim, he attempts to move his hold from her waist to around her arms and shoulders, quickly attempting to switch to a full nelson hold instead  

[Drako Damone]

(auto)

Drako's transition works out in his benefit, as he now has Luca in a full nelson submission hold. Not one he frequently uses because he's normally the smaller competitor. Not that it matters to him, he'll keep the hold or make Luca work to get out of it  

[Mister Mirage]

It was certainly an awkward sight for a girl her size to be on the receiving end of a full nelson. Reaching back, the Huntress would look to pry the champion's grip just enough to gain control over a single finger. Luca would then wrench the single joint back to pull apart the hold.

 

[Drako Damone]

Drako could go many routes here, but his point had probably been proven. As Luca attempts to pry his hold loose, the champion instead aims to simply shove her forward and release her. This was a demonstration of what the challenger could be in for on this night  

[Mister Mirage]

The Huntress quickly spun around after she was shoved away. She continued to shoot a grin at the champion. "Alright, round 2, let's go!" Luca raised her hands up motioning for another lock up, she stepped in before suddenly diving, looking to rush Drako to mat with a single leg takedown!

 

[Drako Damone]

the element of surprise works to the favor of the Huntress in this one. Still, the champion is in his element, and as she shoots in to take him down, he attempts to gain control again by catching her in a front facelock as they go down
