Sabrina’s got to fight and win first, eh? The girls are happy and optimistic so maybe it’s good that Sabrina’s keeping it loose. We’ll be seeing how the Belles are doing in just a couple of updates so you can compare and contrast.
Next update: The Yorks vs Brandy and Vanessa comes to a close!
Voting Incentive!
If you’d like to get a sneak peek at Wednesday’s update, give a click over here.
Some nice bonding and attempt tackling time for the rookies lol. Why the celebration is a lot premature, prepping for a fight is a big part mental as well. Go in thinking you are going to lose its over and overconfident the same. At least Sabrina got some info from the Def Tech on how to handle power house fighters. I am guessing the mood in the Belles locker-room is not as pleasant, De Sade i guessing is not the best motivating speaker lol.
….I thought Sabrina’s arm is suppose to be injured and they are horsing around like that? How follish.
*puts on the monocle and stares disapprovingly*
Well, it could be that a few weeks of rehab along with a good diet helped Sabrina to heal from that injury–oh, who am I kidding!
Botchamania has the answer. She is the Reiko of this comic, after all. Of course she can no-sell an arm injury. It doesn’t mean she’s going to win every time, right? Right?
This is what the Canadian Ninjas would call “the Gameplan.”
Also, DefTech is apparently master of the Finger Poke of Doom.
Panel 1-2: That is why… SUn couldn’t beat Sabrina in a one on one match.
this chapter..
Krystin teaching Sabrina.. I really go for Brooke teaching Sabrina.. about Power wrestler..
Krystin teaching Sabrina could be the key.. because Katherine Smith weakness is tecnical wrestler.. Katherine loss to Brenda Rua and Xtina Carpenter..
this is crunch time.. and they’re having fun..
Bad Omen
Note to “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini (hope albone could deliver it)
don’t play around in the ring, this game time.. show off are your moves, I do mean moves do some unique moves..
I do suggest more moonsault.. and target ‘Powergirl’ Katherine Smith’s head and abdominal area.. so the Ultrasplash will be a critical point for Katherine Smith to lose..
Powerbomb, can be countered to a hurricanrana pin, or a roll up then seated dropkick onto Katherine’s face..
lastly don’t expect me to you cheer you ‘Ultragirl’
end note..
wooo some one was listening to my serums on stratgey hooray go and bring hom the gold Sabrina show those cowradly parisians what it means to be a real fighter
Wouldn’t it be something if all the Upstarts won their matches? Would that be a record or something for Rival Angels having their rookies all win in a PPV? Or do they keep track of those types of stats?
Besides, if Sabrina could win both matches that would be awesome! As for the Tag Team match happening I think that the York sisters will be licking their wounds from a loss, call it a guy feeling.
Panel 1: Sun looks like Psylocke..
hmmm.. kinda kinda
I love this one boss. It really feels fun, exciting. Good work!
Krystin with the “Fingerpoke of Doom!” LOL! Hogan & Nash must be very proud of her.
“BY GAWD KANG! THE UPSTARTS ARE TRIPLE TEAMING ULTRA-GIRL!!!” but i guess Brina’s used to that by now with the Belles and all…
Nice to see all the Upstarts bonding again. i mean Sun and brooke are actually smiling in the same panel at the same time. my brain can’t handle so many shocks like this dammit!
Good to see Brina actually has been picking the brains of Krystin and actually has a plan of attack it would seem- though it also seems she’s not really paying too much attention at the end there wrapped up in the happy happy joy joy ness vibe in the locker room.
meanwhile in the Belles lockeroom <a circular hole has been paced in the carpeting as Chloe paces impateiently stopping in front of Kat every time she reaches her and starts screaming “YOU HAVE TO BEAT THAT ROOKIE MANCINI!!!!!!” then returns to pacing until she comes abck around to Kat- wash rinse repeat.> Meanwhile Jen’s hiding in one of the lockers so no one realizes she’s there despite her suspension. maybe Chloe can buy her a front row ticket or something to “get a good view of the match” wink wink nudge nudge
things don;t look good for Brandy and Vanessa in the VI i’m thinking something dastardly in a switcheroo-like manner is about to take place.
Myself, I think the switcheroo that’s about to take place is that when one Yorkie comes in for the Charlie Brown punt, the cowgirl will put the other Yorkie in front of that foot. Nothing says sisterly love like a boot to the head! ::sound-effect!:: And another one for Shelly and the wimp! ::two more sound-effects!::
So, I’m also looking at putting the rest of the Upstarts in the background of this cake diorama. Any volunteers to help me sculpt Brooke? 😉
Haha this is a very cute page, it’s always nice to see the girls getting on.
I’m glad that a lot of you liked the lightness of the page, considering the impending drama/doom. I always like to switch it up a little bit to keep things lively. 😀
jabberwocky, I think De Sade could be a good motivational speaker under the right circumstances, like kicking the survival instinct into gear on a sinking ship. I’d be more afraid of her than the ship sinking. XD You can bet that the Belles locker room atmosphere is not at friendly as this one currently is.
BBD, you are right to monoclize the situation. They should be a little more focused and careful of Sabrina’s arm but sometimes there’s no reasoning with these rookies! But if Sabrina can’t take a small bump like this to her arm, she really shouldn’t be wrestling.
Hey JSN, that is a hilarious video you found from botchmaina. I always enjoy their work. Like I wrote to BBD, if Sabrina can’t take a little bump like this, there’s no way she can expect to do anything in the ring with it. ” CENA mode.” LMAO! What about the fingerpoke of doom this update?! XD
Chris, I think we both know that Krystin can Fingerpoke of Doom almost better than anybody. Those Canadian Ninjas are very crafty.
MGC, it could be a bad omen for our Upstart Girls. Brooke’s the only one to win so she’s really the only one that can afford to be keep it loose. But, girls just want to have fun. I’ll make sure that Sabrina gets the note. 😉
LOL Comichero! Well said.
Kurt, it would be downright amazing and since Brooke already got her win, the odds are a lot better of that happening. O_o I definitely think that would be a record and stat worthy of mention if that were to happen. I know you and a lot of other readers are pulling for a Sabrina sweep of the evening, so it should make for a dramatic PPV. I think we’re going to get a better feel for the tag team match coming up next update and we’ll see how close you might be on that ‘feeling.’ XD
Thanks Champ! We don’t get to see the Upstart girls laugh together enough.
LOL PS2kid! I think that Hogan and Nash would approve of Krystin carrying on the tradition, with a small nod to Brooke for the assist. XD
jpiv, I think the triple teaming is something that Sabrina would love to not have to deal with, but these pesky Upstart girls are relentless! Definitely a few shockers here with certain girls getting along. Sabrina is feeling pretty good but expect Sabrina to get some last minute instructions and pointers before she goes out there. 😉 I do think you’re right about the mood of the Belles locker room and I do believe we’ll be seeing them shortly. Both Chloe’s demeanor and Jen’s fate will be revealed. You know those trixy York sisters. If they’re not cheating, they’re not trying! But will it be enough to get the win?
Cookie Ogre, I expect a small stampede to help you out with the sculpting. lol Ah yes, the double team backfire with the Yorks! They came close to laying each other out before when they faced Victoria in the TV tournament so things could easily go worse here, especially with something like dodging the incoming blow.
Thanks Stygimoloch! The girls aren’t always so nice to each other so I think it’s good to see it when things are going well.
Gameplan? Sounds interesting. Gonna’ be more tricky keeping Kat at bay while watching over her shoulder for Chloe…
Of course many generals know how well plans survive contact with an enemy. But, if Katherine has any real weakness its may be that she assumes she can bulldoze over any defense and absorb any offense before crushing her opposition.
I don’t think we need to see Chloe pep talk much. I’m guessing her attitude is win or lose, Kat needs to put Sabby in the pain house – so the cage match will be a breeze for her.
I don’t think Chloe will be much help on Katherine.. coz Chloe has her own plans for the match..
Chloe might interfere and make Sabrina win, but injure Sabrina more.. maybe fives shot of steel chair on Sabrina.. as Katherine just watch..
and ‘Powergirl’ Katherine Smith do have a weak spot.. submission moves..
Katherine loss to Xtina.. and to Brenda Rua..
I love this page ALBONE!
Sabrina in my honest opinion does have something to be confident about. In the past she has faced down all three of the hell’s Belles and walked away from it. Not once but at least three times.
‘Brina has shown overwhelming resilience several times in past matches. so for her arm to not be hurting her now. I could see that It was a tendon pull and she did give it time to heal up. I doubt it’s 100 percent and I don’t think it needs to beto bring home the title.
Everybody seems to be leaving out Jen “EL Mustaschio” Needles from the mix. Bad mistake. Since when did CHloe ever care about rules or suspensions? The Belles do what they want isn’t that what they always say? I honestly expect her to not only be involved but land more than a few cheap shots. Hell, I am looking forward to it! XD
Winning always seems to revolve around who wants it the most,and I am sure ‘Brina is gonna prove she wants it more, That’s why the Upstart girls are firing her up,and that’s why she will win.
DynaMo, I think it’s fair to say that no matter the pre-match ritual, both sides have a gameplan. That’s the thing with Hell’s Belles; it’s never really one on one but I almost think that an opponent can’t be naive enough to think otherwise. That’s a fair take on Kat’s wrestling style. Whether it be Monica or Victoria, she usually successfully tries to plow through her opponents. But, neither of them were as quick as Sabrina. Chloe is counting on Kat softening up Sabrina for the cage match….and bring home the TV belt.
Hey Wokinshadoze! Glad you enjoyed the update. Lots of great points and comments, especially about our lil Ultragirl. She’s a scrapper and always is in the match and loves to entertain the fans. Her arm isn’t 100% but she knows what she’s getting into. There’s a lot at stake!! Jen’s availability should be apparent shortly. 😉
Give her hell, Sabrina! However, if champ buys drinks, I have a funny feeling these friends of yours are going to order top-shelf….so be sure to request a pay raise with that championship belt. 😉
Oh man, optimism is so infrequently rewarded in the RA world. I am concerned.
Trevor, that is a very pragmatic point! Once someone else is buying booze, then it’s all Jameson and coke instead of Admiral Nelson. XD
Hey Amanda! Man, do you ever know how Karma works around these parts. lol
Well, it’s going to be at least a couple of updates until we see Brina in the ring, so we have some time to wait. Wait, wait, wait.
I DON’T WANNA WAIT!
It will be a few updates before Brina’s in the ring, Darkmark, but it’s coming soon!! XD
