AZUMI vs. Lucy Stone

"Guuuuuuh...." Azumi groaned out as Lucy's arm tightened around her head, making it difficult for the H.E.AT Championess to breathe as she felt the knee being pushed into her spine. Being forced to bend backwards along with the arm trying to rip her head off of her shoulder, Azumi's hands continued to grip on the arm, now being forced to bend backwards she planted her feet into the mat to arch herself up.

If she was able to fight herself to a standing position, she wouldn't be able to get too far from Lucy with that arm around her neck as she tried to push into the red head and twist herself to switch the sleeper into a side headlock, and remove the threat of blacking out from her list of worries.

Azumi struggled and fought, pushing herself up towards her feet and into a stand...something which Lucy without a doubt hated...she was going to have to find a different strategy, and as she started to feel Azumi shift her way out of the sleeperhold and into a side-headlock instead....

The Chicago girl would attempt to kick up one of her legs, trying to ram it into the Azumi's belly to stun the raven haired newcomer. Only to proceed to try and keep that side headlock locked in and attempt to run off. Looking to jump up into the air and then try and drive the woman's face into the mat with a running bulldog.

Azumi managed to turn around into the side head lock, the threat of blacking out due to a lack of air was momentarily avoided as she coughed out. There was still the crushing pressure around her head that did her no favors. Just like the knee to the stomach. That did even worse favors for her. Coughing and gagging for air as Lucy with a single blow stopped all of her momentum in trying to break out, Azumi could do nothing but force to follow Lucy as she was pulled forward.

The red head jumped up into the bulldog, Azumi's head forced to follow with her as she crashed front first into the mat. Her face smashed into the mat as she immediately shot her hands to her nose, shooting up to her knees as she leaned forward. Luckily nothing was broken, but it didn't help much when her world was currently shaky.

Lucy with a hold of Azumi's head in that side headlock soon took off running and jumped up, driving the pretty face of Azumi hard into the mat! Smashing her face in a manner that got the crowd to wince out in sympathy for the H.E.A.T wrestler. Lucy would remain seated for a second and grab a handful of black hair nonchalantly.

" Bet you wish you didn't act so cocky now huh, goddamn shitty upstart thinking she can act tough here in AFW. Give me a fucking break." Lucy let out as she would try and rub Azumi's face down against the mat in a painful manner. As she would move up to her knees and then try and yank Azumi's head up off of the mat before simply attempting to smash her face back down into the mat!

Azumi groaned as Lucy stood over, she didn't seem to happy about Azumi's presence in AFW. Not that it was surprising, Azumi always seemed to have that effect on people as she started to push herself up on her fours, trying to shake life back into her head and eliminate the cobwebs that set up shop there. But Lucy was not going to have any of that, looking to punish Azumi even more as she got another handful of her hair.

Groaning out as she gripped on to the wrists, Azumi was once again shoved face first into the mat, her hands shooting to her nose again to make sure it was set right on her face. Lucy seemed to be taking her taunting from earlier a little too seriously, Azumi could help but let out a chuckle. "Wow... I didn't think you were going to take that so seriously..." she let out as she slowly began pushing herself off of the mat again.

Slamming Azumi's face down hard against the mat, she had hoped it would shut up Azumi for a bit but soon enough the woman moved up towards her hands and knees and started chuckling out. Lucy would crank her neck and attempt to back up a bit. She didn't care what Azumi said or her chuckling, she was going to teach this bitch a lesson.

Looking to back up enough so she could get enough momentum up for a run at her foe, looking to shot her leg up and go in for a running bit boot to the rising Azumi, trying to smack her in the face with the sole of her boot.

Azumi began rising to her feet as Lucy went off rushing towards the ropes, the riled up red head proved to be a contender that she couldn't continue taking lightly. The flurry she suffered was a good indicator of that as Azumi got to her knee, panting as Lucy came rushing back with a big boot that was aimed to the face. Instead of rolling out of the way, Azumi was ready to take back the momentum of the match as she brought her hands up to catch the foot by the heel and sole, stomping most of the impact from crushing Azumi's face.

Her foot and knee dug into the mat, trying to stop all that power was not an easy task as Azumi gritted her teeth as she raised up to her foot, she would look at Lucy and give her another smirk before wrapping her arm around the ankle of Lucy, before twisting inwards to try and Dragon Screw leg whip her opponent down to the mat!

Lucy came running in at her opponent, looking to drive that sole of hers right into the black haired woman's face! Yet it seemed as if Lucy was getting a bit ahead of herself, as she came running in...Azumi managed to grab a hold of her foot and ankle and put a stop to the Chicago girl's rush! 

The redhead eyed Azumi's face for a bit as the girl then got up to her feet and took a firm hold of her leg. Before she could do anything else, Azumi flung Lucy around with a painful dragon screw, taking Lucy off of her standing foot and sending her tumbling and twisting in the air to crash down hard into the mat with a loud thud. " Augh!" 

Twisting and dropping to the mat, contorting her opponent's knee being the main focus, Azumi kept her arms wrapped around the leg as she got up to her feet. She was pinpointed on the leg, keeping Lucy down would not only help her keep Lucy under control, but it would set up for later when Azumi looked to seal the deal with a Shining Wizard.

Holding Lucy's ankle, she would raise her arm before swinging it in to smack her bicep into the back of the knee with a quick European Uppercut before attempting to spin again, looking for another dragon screw to force the knee to smash into the mat for more damage on the leg.

Lucy groaned out as she was down on her front and soon rolled over onto her back, she shook her head and looked up on at Azumi...the woman was quick and she hit hard...not only that she soon enough came at the redhead with more attacks as she drove her arm up into the back of Lucy's knee. " Ah!" the redhead yelped out in pain.

Her leg was then used again as she was twisted around at high speed and her knee smacked into the canvas. Her body flopping over onto her front as she would bring her hands down towards her knee. " Gah...d-dammit!"
