AV 16 Entropy Title Ladder match: Alaina Sanders (c) vs. Valley Doll

As Alaina sat with her back arched she heard the footsteps. She knew she had to move, or do something. However as her thoughts began to translate to action she felt her head grabbed and pulled violently as her face rocketed forward smashing off the mat!

Alaina groaned as after the impact her head snapped back, and she laid on the mat flat on her back. Her arms craddled her head as she rolled to her side kicking the mat in pain! She was Valleys whipping girl right now, and if this kept up Alaina was going to be a former champion before she knew it!

That could not happen.

Alaina let out a scream of frustration as she rolled onto her stomach, trying to work her way tonher hands and knees as she glared at Valley. Any trace of her usual friendliness was gone, replace by intensity with a touch of frustration over her inability to keep pace with Valley thus far.

Valley landed the neck snap and rolled forward, popping back to her feet just in time to look over her shoulder and see Alaina rolling about, kicking her feet in a world of pain. The opening blitz was a little cheap, she could admit, but well within the rules. It sucked, but she wasn’t pulling any punches today. Or kicks.

Without another moment wasted, she dropped down and rolled out of the ring, then went for the nearest ladder she could find. Seven feet tall, fairly light, perfect for what she needed.

Eager to get at the belt as soon as possible, she picked it up and started to slide it in, hoping Alaina was still decently incapacitated.

Alaina began to stir as she heard noise outside the ring, she looked up and saw a ladder sliding into the ring as she was up on her hands and knees. The amazon knew that the slamazon was likely to be sliding into the ring shortly after.

Alaina would be ready.

Valley was about to find out the hard way that it took a lot to keep Alaina down. Jessica Wright found that out in their last woman standing match. Alaina readied herself with a grin on her face. As soon as Valley slid in Alaina was going to burst forward with everything she had and hammer the speedy woman with a powerful running lariat! If Valley wanted to try to kick Alaina's head off her shoulders, the amazon decided that her strikes should be strong enough to bulldoze the lighter Valley Doll into the ground!

While it had been a good minute since she’d participated in a ladder match, but she still remembered her mother’s advice from the first one she ever participated in. It was simple, really, when you got down to it - waste no time, get the ladder as much as you can. Don’t taunt, don’t showboat, just get it into position and scamper up fast.

Of course, to do that, you had to incapacitate your enemy, and Alaina was looking fairly incapacitated when Valley left the ring. When she came back inside with ladder, though? Not so much.

The lariat hit Valley with tremendous force and dropped her flat in an instant. Her legs flopped up for a second, before they too came down and left her sprawled out on the mat, barely able to remember what country she was in.

One move. That was all it took to change the entire complexion of the match.

Groaning, hurting, aching, Valley instinctively started to roll to the side, trying to escape the ring before Alaina could follow up, but it was a slow, sloppy move.

Alaina saw Valley rolling towards the edge of the ring, and immediately gave chase. "Oh no no.... hitting and running won't do my dear.... this is how its done!" Alaina said as she grabbed hold of Valley. She gave Valley a small taste of her power. Valley needed to feel more before she properly respected what Alaina brought to the table these days!

Alaina bent over, looking to pick Valley up in a deadlift from the mat. Alaina held her across her chest and turned with her back to the ladder inside the ring. With a loud grunt Alaina lift Valley up trying to power Valley over her with a fallaway slam! If Valley happened to land on top of the ladder laying in the ring, that would just be an added bonus for the amazon.

Did Valley really expect to get away from a clearly enraged Alaina? Not really. But it was worth a try, that much was certain. The other tip her Mom gave her was that, once metal got into the ring, you wanted to be in there as little as possible. Bad things were bound to happen.

So, when Alaina showed her might by lifting her up like a child and flinging her back, she could only hope that she’d miss the ladder that she’d brought into the ring. No such luck.

She hit in on her back and hit hard, screaming the second she made impact, the raw pain surging down her spine. Valley rolled off and came to a rest by the ropes on the opposite side of the ring, kicking about as she nursed her sore back. ”Damn it! Damn it!”

Alaina saw Valley near the ropes away from her and figured that the speedy woman seemed to be outside the ring or near the edge of it a lot so far. Maybe she wanted to be on the outside? Alaina was no stranger to fighting out there and decided that perhaps she could help Valley out?

The amazon ran towards the ropes away from Valley, rebounding and bolting as quickly as she could at Valley Doll! Sure she wasn't as fast as her opponent, but she could get her 160 pounds moving very well when she wanted to. As she drew close she slid down, looking to plow into the very center of Valley Dolls mass, hoping the impact of her baseball slide would knock her off the canvass and onto the floor outside the ring!

Get up.

Valley slammed her fist into the mat, more frustrated with herself than the woman slamming her around. Shouldn’t have given her that opening. Should’ve hammered her more when she had the chance. Should’ve slapped her in the figure four headlock and knocked her out.

Should’ve, should’ve, should’ve.

Now she was on the floor, struggling to just stand up, and judging by the way Alaina was storming towards her, she wasn’t coming over to help.

Alaina wasn’t the fastest on the roster, but when she got some decent momentum behind her, the woman could hit like a runaway Mack truck. That was the force that launched Valley under the rope and clear out of the ring, dumping her out on the floor like so much trash. She hit the barricade and flopped over to her chest, still reeling from the heavy blow.

Alaina hopped down to the floor, intent on pressing her advantage. She made her way over to Valley and yanked her up by her gorgeous hair. Alaina has the barricade right nearby, and planned on using the environment around her to her advantage. She pulled Valley's head back and looked to bring it crashing down on top of the barricade!

If once was great, twice would be even better. After one strong smashing of Valley's head off the top Alaina did it again, keeping hold of Valley's hair and tossing her away from the barricade after!

Valley had hoped that, in cutting her hair shorter, her opponent would use it less for a handhold, constantly tugging on her mane whenever they needed to lead her around.

Sadly, that seemed to not be the case. If anything, the tugging was worse with her short hair, as Alaina forced her to stand with hard jerks. And it only got worse from there.

Valley had the presence of mind to get her hands up and brace against the barricade, absorbing some of the impact from the smashing blow, but the problem was that the impact left her dazed. Too dazed to do anything about the second hit, which landed spot on, metal to bone, right on the forehead.

When Alaina tossed her back, Valley fell hard and nearly banged her head on the ring apron, landing with her upper body falling beneath the skirt. She wasn’t knocked out, but she was certainly going to be spending the next few moments in La La Land.
