Gai Tendo vs. Jaguar

Jaguar shook his head as Gai groaned and rolled around on the mat, weakly insulting his mother as some sort of comeback. Well if the hotshot was feeling good enough to throw some insults, he was feeling good enough to get his head pounded in again.

Jaguar stalked over and roughly grabbed Gai's head of hair, yanking him up onto his knees. He worked at getting the man's head between his thighs and tried to hook both of Gai's arms onto his back. He'd then hop up and use a facebuster to drive Gai's head back into the mat again.

Sensing a shot a win, he quickly flipped Gai onto his back and laid across his chest. He hooked both of the redhead's legs and held on for dear life, thinking to himself that the ref could stand to be a little quicker to react.

"ONE!"

The facebuster forced another curse out of Gai, the redheads hands going to his nose, making sure it wasn't broken, even as he was rolled over to his back. With the throbbing in his face and head, he barely noticed he was being pinned at first, not until the first count.

"TWO!"

As the second count was called, the referee's hand hitting the mat, Gai took a deep breath,his legs too locked up by Jaguar to kick out. Instead, as the ref's hand came down for a third time, he forced his arm up, getting his shoulder off the mat and breaking the pin!

Counts one and two came quickly enough and Jaguar figured it would be all over. Stubborn Gai had other plans, he defied "death" and threw his shoulder up just before the third. Jaguar scowled as he released Gai's knee and rolled to kneel beside him. If Gai was still feeling perky enough to resist a pin, then he was feeling perky enough to suffer through a submission hold.

He grabbed Gai's arms and legs and flipped him over onto his chest. He stood at Gai's lower back and grabbed the grappler's legs and bent them, placing Gai's left ankle and folding it behind his right knee to form a triangle and then placed his foot inside. Jaguar then locked Gai's ankle behind his leg and leaned back, catching himself on his hands to form a bridge. The muta lock was completed when Jaguar's hands wrapped under Gai's chin and he pulled up!

"Just tap and save yourself embarrassment you clown"

As if the last submission hold hadn't sucked and been painful enough, the goddamn kitty kat had put him in yet another damn submission hold!

"GAH! YOU FUCKING PUSSY! GET THE HELL OFF OF ME!"

Gai screamed, pounding his gloved fist on the mat before starting to try and use his arms to pull himself towards the ropes, slowly, but impressively, dragging the two of them, bit by bit, towards the ropes.

Jaguars eyes widened beneath his mask as the redhead incredulously began to drag both himself and Jaguar's dead weight stop him toward the ropes! Was it strength, or just pig-headedness that fueled this idiot? Jagaur arched his back further, extending his abdomen higher into the air as he increased the tension on Gai's legs and neck.

No real results there, Gai still made stubborn progress towards the ropes. "Are you stupid, or just a masochist?" Jaguar growled as he flexed his core to maintain the muta lock. If Gai wanted a rope break, Jaguar was gonna make him suffer for every single ducking inch.

Grrr...U-Ususai! Baka yarou!"

Gai yelled, the pain and contortion driving him to curse Jaguar out in his native language. The tightening of the hold stopped his progress, the redhead's arms flailing about as he tried to not panic.

Realizing just how close Jaguar's head was though, and having an idea of how important masks were to masked fighters, Gai reached back, grabbing at Jaguars mask and tugging at it as much as he could, taking a chance that Jaguar would rather break the hold than have his face fully exposed!

Jaguars eyes went wide when Gai dispassionately clawed at his mask, curling his fingers into the eyeholes and trying to tear any part he could get his grubby little mitts on. Immediately Jaguar released Gai's chin as he tried to fight the man's arms off, digging his fingers into the man's wrists to get him to release. That strategy was easier said than done when you were fighting someone behind you, so Jaguar was forced to give in to the cowardly tactic. He drove a sharp elbow into Gai's spine and then swiftly rolled away from him.

His hands quickly patted at and along the surface of the mask, checking for damages. A quick sigh of relief escaped his lips when he found that the fabric had only been stretched out some, the right eyehole made larger. He could still see out of it, which meant he could still fight, and none of the laces were disturbed, which meant he could still focus fully on the match.

Jaguar pressed up to a crouch, resting one knuckle on the mat while he stared Gai down. "So you're a coward on top of a being a puto, good to know" he growled as he jumped to his feet. He wasn't gonna let Gai rest after insulting him like that. He ran forward and jumped, moving horizontally so that he could drive a hard elbow drop across his shoulders.

While Jaguar was busy checking on his mask, Gai was rubbing his sore neck, groaning loudly and cursing Jaguar. Where the hell did a luchador learn one of the most famous Japanese submission holds anyway?

By the time Jaguar attempted his elbow drop, Gai had recovered enough to roll away, avoiding the blow and not stopping till he rolled outside of the ring, on the far side, near the announcers tables, landing on his feet, one hand rubbing the back of his neck.

Frustrated and fed up, the former Buriki-One champ had decided he had frankly had enough of this shit and, shaking his head, starting walking around the ring, using the guard rail to keep him upright as he made his limping walk around the ring, intending to get counted out and end this damn match, Jaguar proving a bigger pain in the ass than he wanted to deal with.

"Why you running, puto? Cant handle a real luchador?" Jaguar shouted at Gai as the man slipped his tail between his legs and ran. He stood up and raced over to the ropes, continuing his taunts as he tried to rally the crowd to his side. Gai was limping along the guard rail dividers, constantly on the move like an animal who knew it was being hunted.

This sense of dominance and superiority emboldened Jaguar, and secured his decision to go after him. Jaguar quickly ascended the nearest turnbuckle and crouched, a sign any of his followers would know meant he was prepping a signature move of some kind. But Jaguar wasn't looking for fancy, he was looking for damage, he wanted Gai hurt. With a snarl he worked his legs to the max and hurled himself from the turnbuckle, aiming to take Gai's face down with a harsh and pointed knee!

A cheer from the crowd, similar too before, was all the warning Gai needed to know something was coming for him, looking up to see Jaguar leaping off of the turnbuckle, firing himself like a bullet at Gai, aiming to crash upon him and drop him down with his hard knee...

At least, that's what Jaguar WANTED to happen, but Gai, having the warning, was able to leap over the guard rail, landing and knocking over several fans, leaving the outside of the ring empty and without a target for Jaguar to land on except the hard ground!
