AV 15 Mongolian Horde Match!

Diabolica smiled widely as she quickly began neutralizing Etzlicoatl's advantage for comming late in the ring. She was sure that tide will turn around after few more throws like that and she could already smell the victory. But first she has to catch her opponent. At least Etzlicoatl couldn't run away unless she wanted to be eliminated. "It's a shame you can't run and take a break outside of the ring, isn't it?" She asked while start slowly approaching her.

It was bit weird that she got so close to the ropes, since she could be easily thrown or pushed out in position like that. Diabolica knew that she would most likely have advantage fighting there, but she still approached carefully. There was lot on the line and she didn't want to get eliminated by falling on some trick.

Once she got closer to her, Diabolica didn't go any further. She decided that the smartest thing is to weaken Etzlicoatl first and than mess around at the edge of the ring. Instead, she just waited for her opponent to take an action by standing close enough to prevent her easy way back to the ring.

Etzlicoatl, naturally, was on the back foot. She had retreated across the ring and was now skulking on the apron, trying to come up with a way to deal with this giant of an enemy. But there was no way back in without playing straight into Diabolica's hands, and if she fell off, she'd be eliminated...

"There is no retreat in the Sanguine Serpent!" she shouted, enraged. "You dare to insult my courage in battle? I would sooner offer my heart to the sun than to fall to the floor and be eliminated!"

"Actually," the ref girl corrected her, having slid into the ring, "with the last two of you in, it changes to standard match rules."

"Wait, really?"

"Really."

There was a half-second pause, and then Etzlicoatl immediately leapt back and dropped to the floor. She reached under the bottom rope, grabbing at Diabolica's ankle and pulling with all of her (admittedly small, cruiserweight-level) force to try and unbalance the giant.

"I'll be more than happy if you return so i can beat you up some more." Diabolica responded with more threats, but Referee corrected both of them afterward. "Wait what?" Diabolica was equally confused as Etzli; look like that in the heat of battle both forgot about that rule.

Etzlicoatl was the first to react. She jumped down and pull for Diabolica's legs. It wasn't enough to pull her out of the ring, but it was enough to make her fall. Diabolica lost balance and collapsed down with loud crash. "UGH!" She grunted after gravity and her own weight did an impact.

She looked toward her opponent and decided to not go after her. She was slowly getting up on her feet to do same as before. Just wait for Etzlicoatl to get straight in her hands or get counted out.

Although it'd led to a momentary advantage, the rule change was probably not a good thing for Etzlicoatl. She stood a much better chance of somehow getting the bigger Diabolica out of the ring than she did of beating her in a standard match. Really, even the idea of keeping the amazon down for three seconds seemed implausible.

"Hah! You were taken in by my cunning trap!"

Still, she'd managed to trip the other girl and now it was time to bring the pain. Etzli leapt back up to the apron, pulled back hard on the ropes, and launched over them, putting all of her momentum behind a crossbody. It was riskier than she thought - it might make a big impact, sure, but if Diabolica had managed to get to her feet, she'd be easy to catch on the way in...

Diabolica was just waiting for Etzlicoatl to return in ring so she can continue punishing her. And she choosed simmilar action than when entering the ring. Great, perfect oportunity that Diabolica catch her mid air and slam her down on canvas. But things didn't happen as she expected. Diabolica was already a little tired because of having two fights already and with combination of her being slow wrestler it created opportunity to Etzli.

They colided in crosbody maneuver and Diabolica lost balance again, causing to fall back with Etzlicoatl on top of her. At least she was light as a feather, so Mexican devil didn't have any problems with getting her off. It was also refreshing thing to know, since it will be very hard for Etzli to reach 3 count in pinfall attempt.

Diabolica got up on her feet and began marching her way toward Etzlicoatl she would swing with her arm and trying to land a punch in opponent's gut.

She almost got caught, but the endurance game worked in Etzlicoatl's favor, and despite Diabolica's best efforts they went crashing to the mat. Etzli grabbed a massive leg with both hands, heaving on it with all her body weight to hook it in place. "Count!" she shrieked.

The ref didn't even make it down to count one before Diabolica tossed her off.

Etzli fumed all the way back up to her feet. This was absurd. If the referees were derelict in their sworn duty, how could she be expected to accomplish anything? So be it! She would simply have to handle this herself, as soon as--

--THWOOMP.

She turned around right into a punch to the midsection that practically wrapped her around Diabolica's fist. Etzlicoatl doubled over, with an expression that can really only be described as "X_X", and wilted in place like a dead flower.

Although Diabolica was getting bit tired already and as consequence getting hit by her opponent, she could still pack a punch to do pretty nice damage to Etzli. Thinking how to end up today's match, she decided to try with submission hold. Due to her height and weight advantage Etzlicoatl will have pretty tough time getting away once she manage to catch her.

And with Etzlicoatl being doubled over she had perfect opportunity for headlock. "Now you'll see what a pain is." Saying that, Diabolica would try to wrap her meaty arm around smaller girl's neck in order to catch her in headlock.

This was a terrible situation. Not just because Etzlicoatl was looking ridiculous, but also because the headlock was kind of like a vice around her head and neck. Her eyes bulged comically as she squirmed in Diabolica's grasp, drawing the laughter of the crowd.

She didn't really have a comeback for the taunt, and if she did, she wouldn't be able to say it in her current state. Instead, she gripped her fellow Mexican around the legs and tried to lift her upwards for a backdrop suplex. No dice! Once again, the size difference was just too much. The Sanguine Serpent hissed in pained frustration - her specialties were suplexes and high-flying moves, and she couldn't do either in this predicament.

Instead, she backed them up against the ropes, then hauled forward, trying to send Diabolica off her and into the ropes on the opposite side of the ring. Time for some rebound-based strategies.

Diabolica cought Etzlicoatl in headlock and start instantly applying some preasure. She was convinced that this will be easy way to finish the match due to their height difference, but Etzlicoatl still had some fuel in the tank. She managed to move both of them closer to the ropes and perform a trick to get away. Diabolica was sent toward ropes on the other side of the ring and bounced back toward Etzli. Due to her mass she couldn't stop that easy, so instead she kept runing and using momentum to gain more speed. If Etzli didn't have any plan to follow up this action, Diabolica would extend her arm and try to land a running clothesline along her chest.

Having finally gotten the crushing grip of Diabolica's arms off her head, Etzlicoatl was prepared to take the offensive.  She couldn't exactly suplex the bigger girl, not without a whole lot of extra power that just wasn't coming her way at the moment.  That left her lucha training - which, fortunately, was considerable.

As Diabolica went dashing to the other side of the ring, Etzli turned in place, leaping onto the second rope.  She bounced all the way up to the top rope, sprung off, twisted in midair, and turned in place for a flipping springboard senton, aimed at knocking her enemy right off her feet--

--and, in midair, a she met the clothesline halfway.

The crowd roared with delight as Etzlicoatl was clotheslined out of the air - it was true that Diabolica was a bully and generally very unpleasant, but Etzli was something far worse, a coward and an opportunist, and they were relishing the opportunity to see her get knocked around.  And knocked around she was, as the force of the blow sent her flying out of the air and skipping across the ring like a thrown stone on a lake.  It was a ridiculous sight.
