Nadine Hawker vs Piper Sherwood(d) - No Excuses

The first to accomplish three of the five goals set forth for the match will be declared the winner: 1. Pinfall. 2. Submission. 3. Forcing the opponent to worship you. 4. Rendering the opponent unable to respond to a 10 count. 5. Touch all 4 corners of the ring without interference from your opponent. No fall can be achieved twice.

After Piper insulted her and then attacked her in the gym, Nadine had been looking forward to this match. The blonde arrogant bitch clearly thought she was better than Nadine, and now was going to find out how untrue that was now that she had to face Nadine in a real match. No cheap shots and no chance for an early lead. Nadine shadow boxed preparing to get her, imagining Piper's face in front of her. Sarah was with her this time, ready to step in if she suspected any foul play from Piper again. All of this made Nadi excited to get her revenge. "This will be great! Make sure you're watching Sarah, that bitch won't know what hit her." Nadi said before she would leave before Sarah could say anything.

Spoiler:

Nadi's music hit and the cute fighter came out smiling for the crowd, most of whom weren't aware of the reason these two were fighting or that they had any history. Nadine reached out and started to shake hands with the fans while jumping down the ring. Sarah stayed back, watching the match from a tv so Piper would think Nadi was alone here, she didn't think she would need to step in now that Nadi knew who she was up against. Nadi confidently posed in front of the ring, showing off and waiting for Piper to make her entrance so she could finally kick her ass.

In all honesty it seemed rather fitting that Piper's first official match in AFW was one that would settle some old business for herself. Particularly because she felt the need to exert her dominance over a rando in the gym it gave birth to not only a big time debut match, but one with quite the stipulation to it. Not that Piper was daunted by that at all, in fact she just saw it as a chance to make an even bigger impact and properly dominate Nadine this time. "No little bitch friend of yours is gonna save your ass this time..." Piper said softly to herself after making sure her outfit was secure and heading to the entrance curtain to head out as her music started up!

Spoiler:

Coming out from the back Piper would be graced by boos and jeers from the fans in spite of this being her first time before them. Apparently in the lead up to this match to hype it as more than a debut, AFW had released clips of security footage showing what Piper had done to Nadine when they thought no one was watching, and to say it very quickly got the fans against her was an understatement. Not that it bothered Piper at all as she posed and acted smugly, simply making her way down in her black, gold and green attire before hopping onto the apron and slipping between the ropes into the ring, looking rather arrogantly towards her opponent as she leaned back against her corner in preparation.

Spoiler:

Nadine glared at Piper the moment she arrived, she looked too pleased with herself. She clearly thought this was an extension of what she did last time, and while Sarah wasn't going to interfere like last time she was still going to pay because now she had no sneak attack to rely on. Nadine was itching to jump at the chance to knock her down a peg or two and finally wipe that smirk off her face, the only thing stopping her was the bell halting any attack.

"Hope you don't have anyone special watching, they might look away when I have you down 2 to nothing." Nadi said, staying in her corner while she watched Piper for any kind of cheap tricks. She would sit on the second rope while holding them and settling in until the bell told her to move.

Piper continued to smirk confidently after entering the ring, especially after hearing the comment from her opponent. Knowing full well that she would be out for blood after what the blonde did to her Piper still didn't seem as if she cared too much. No all she was focused on was how she would be beating the bitch black and blue again.

"Wow such confident talk from somebody who had to be saved like a damsel in distress from me before." Piper shot back, not willing to let Nadi have the last word as she bounced on her heels, waiting for the action to begin, hands already up in anticipation to lock up and throw down with the girl across from her!

Nadine was still seething waiting for her revenge. "We'll see if your still as confident when you actually have to fight not attack from behind!" Nadine said, growling in her corner until the bell rang and gave Nadine permission to finally move. When she did she would rush in right at Piper and would try to lock up.

At the same time she would start pushing as hard as she could, trying to force Piper back into her corner as an early show of strength, and to try and make Piper see she was dealing with a whole other animal.
