“And here we go, the bell has rung and…“

Fiona’s grab attempt was on point, the younger wrestler able to grab onto Elina’s left wrist as the two closed in for what at first looked to be a straightforward grapple. Elina was clearly caught off guard, her eyes slightly widened. 

“And Fiona with a quick grab and…!” Dan Rich leaned forward as Fiona tried to execute the throw on Elina. Elina, however, quickly recovered from the initial surprise and as Fiona went for the throw Elina manage to wrench her arm free midway. Instead of being slammed down hard on her back Elina tumbled across the ring and came to a shaky stand.

“Fiona almost throwing Elina down flat on her back right after the bell rang but Elina managed to avoid the hard impact!” 

Elina immediately charged forward and with a low [i]thud[/i] of body-against-body she and Fiona were caught in a full grapple this time in the center of the ring, their arms locked around each other’s shoulders.

“And Fiona does not want to play this game,” Brent pointed out, “Elina is a technical mat wrestler through and through.”

“The two are locked up in another grapple, and…”

In a quick move Elina shoved both of Fiona’s arms off to her right side and grabbed Fiona around her midsection, preparing for a quick side slam.
