Trini "Starshine" Carazo vs. Ayane "Empress" Yamamoto

During her years modeling, live and on tape, Trini had become known, above all else, for the incredible tone of her abs, which had been likened to those of a Greek goddess made out of chiseled marble. But anyone who watched her videos would know that she didn't slack off on any part of her body—not even her rear end. As she bashed her butt into Ayane's tummy, flexing her glutes to really dig deep into that torso, she was sure that the Empress, who had never watched her videos, was learning a lesson in a very hard way.

As Trini finished her spin, the Empress, gasping for breath, managed to grab her and twist her around, and the American woman let out a yelp as she was smashed into the ropes...and took a brutal knee to her belly. "Ooough!"

Their positions reversed, Trini sucked in a deep breath, defiantly tightened her abs, and thrust them forward, pressing them into Ayane's and daring the woman to try to flatten her against the ropes!

The switch happened quickly, giving Trini no time to prepare or stop it, the only thing she had time for was the knee to her belly and even then Ayane still stuck her right before she was ready. She heard the american gasp for air in surprise and wanted to press her knee in deeper, before she felt Trini tighten her abs and then shove them forward. This new challenge was unorthodox, why was Trini so confident in her abs? Ayane had another question for herself when she quickly shoved her own abs right back at Trini's.

"The nerve of you!" Ayane growled. She wasn't sure why. She was a submission specialist, her abs were always strong but something about the way Trini challenged them tested her patience unlike anything else. She shoved herself into Trini to force their abs in close combat while the rest of them were stuck together against the ropes.

Trini's move was practical, protecting her abs by shoving them so tightly against her opponent that the woman could not maneuver enough to throw any more attacks into them. But it was more than that, and Trini was not the sort of girl who would lie to herself about her motivations. She had been an icon of fitness for a long time. Her abs had won awards, and she had dedicated whole video tapes to sharing some of her training secrets with aspiring young women across the country. They wouldn't break that easily, and she wanted Ayane to feel the radiant warmth of their power for herself.

If the Empress happened to be embarrassed when her own abs got crushed, Trini wouldn't feel too bad about it. She would mend fences with the hotheaded Japanese woman later, when the time was right!

"It's not my nerves you gotta worry about, flower," Though she was still in a bit of pain, Trini managed a smile right in Ayane's face and even gave her a kiss on the cheek as she tried to power forward, using her legs and arms to try to roll Ayane to the side and once again flip their positions so that the Empress was against the ropes, her abs being grinded down by Trini's!

Trini was getting cheeky again, mocking her with her challenges as if the two of them were in the same league. Ayane wouldn't stand for that insult to live, she had to crush it and win this match, even more so when Trini leaned in and kissed her cheek. This was a title match not a game! Ayane was getting angrier, and then Trini added to that by pushing them over to try and put her against the ropes, still rubbing her abs against hers. Ayane tightened them in preparation of this and kept pushing back against Trini, the mutual ab grinding being the main means of fighting now.

"It isn't that jello stomach." Ayane snarled. She was too proud of her belly to let Trini get the better of her, she kept pushing against the blonde to try and force her abs to retreat, pushing more and more until she could grab around Trini's waist and turn her around to switch them again. She wanted to surprise the blonde and force her to be the one on the ropes where she wanted to grind her to dust before she could do anything.

"Mmm, Mama used to make a mean Jell-O salad, but there isn't anything jiggly about these abdominals, Ayane," Trini taunted, managing to use the power of her abs and legs to shove Ayane off to the side and then flip her around, smashing her back into the ropes, grinding down on those pale abs in a way which seemed to just drive the Japanese woman crazy.

To her credit, Ayane didn't give up. She immediately did exactly as Trini did, shoving forward with her abs into the grind to try to flip the Californian over. Trini managed to resist for a few seconds, grunting as she tried to grind down hard on Ayane and pin her without any leverage, but she wasn't able to maintain the position against her opponent's ferocious assault, and once again she found herself flung into the ropes, bending backwards as Ayane grinded down on her.

"Mm...your belly feels so nice...like mochi," Trini said, refusing to back down, even firing off that little jab of her own at her opponent. And then she surged forward again, leading with her abs but also using her arms to shove and guide Ayane backwards into the ropes. She wasn't going to let the Empress think her abs could win this fight, and so if Ayane wanted to keep rolling and grinding on the ropes, Trini was ready for it!
