Page 247 – Grinding
Sun still can’t get close enough to Sabrina to make the tag. The Yorks keep heading Sun off at the pass. They’re too fast! Maybe too good? The Yorks ARE an experienced tag team so you can’t take anything away from them. Sun and Sabrina have lasted longer (much longer) than when Brooke and Krystin were a tag team but the end result might be the same. They need to do something fast.
The other side of the coin are the York sisters. They’ve been in control for a while. They almost scored the pin on an unsuspecting Sun and are going to keep grinding the littlest Upstart into the mat. Can sun recover?

Rival Angel Graphic Novel update
I should be getting the proof for the book sometime today and if it checks out, I will have the pre-order information up on Wednesday. (Yay!)
Theres a little law in wrestling that Sabrina needs to remember. Its called an eye for an eye.
So heres a little message for her
Â
GET YOUR ULTRA-LAZY BUTT IN THERE AND HELP SUN
Â
you have no idea how good that feels
Â
also, hi im back and with more spacing in my comments then ever 😛
Again!
Â
York Sisters got the advantage.. Yare Yare!
Â
good thing, I decided not to support Sun in this match. or else I be sad..
Â
I think, Sun became slow in this match.. or Sun isn’t in her game.. I’m compare to the fatal four way and against Sara Valentine..
Comapare Sun’s ability against Sara Valentine. Â Sun used trick in which for her advantage, thumb to the eye, then kick. moonsault landing kick. even when Sara got Sun, Sun still able to dominate. while here, Sun can apply those tricks to her advantage in which, I only saw the best offense Sun did is the asai moonsault, which give credit to ‘Ultragirl’ Sabrina Mancini for the suicide dive.
Â
Panel 1: Sun could used her speed.. maybe ‘Shunpo’ technique.. or maybe be roll and make a quick tag on Sabrina. Â after all she’s a ninja!
Panel 2: Â should I say.. nice art! Sun screamed ‘Brina!’
Panel 3: another great facial express on Sabrina..
Panel 5: I would say, to much of that kinda of double team, can really hurt for the York Sisters..
Â
now Francesca York applied a full nelson on Sun, then Josephine coming in for the double team. again, the referee will block Sabrina, to prevent Sabrina interfering.. but I can see Sun can counter it.. Sun puts her legs in between Josephine’s neck and then slam Josephine down. or Sun can dropkick Josephine, and used it to accelerated as Francesca slides back towards Sabrina. now Sun can tagged Sabrina easily.. another possibility that Sun can flip over Francesca, then Sun rolled to tagged Sabrina in.
Â
overall I’m impress on the York Sisters, even though still their not on my Top Ten favorite angels. I mean, York Sisters, are like shark that smells blood. York Sisters found the weak link, on the ‘Ultra-Dragon’.. Sun Wong is the weak link.. but I really like SUn to hide herself as the weak link, unfortunately she already reviled  that Sun Wong is the weak link..
Â
I’m kinda disappointed in ‘Shinobi’ ‘Lil Dragon’ Sun Wong.. she was my favorite, last year! and one who really like to see Sun and Sabrina in tag team.. but know I seen it, sorry!
LOVE THE VOTING INCENTIVE
‘POWER GIRL’ KATHERINE SMITH!
YEAH! GO! ‘POWER GIRL’ KATHERINE SMITH!
Are you the Alan Evans from P.V.?
Are you the Alan Evans from PV?
More great art, and wonderful suspense! I’m on the edge of my seat. Again!
I think it might be too late for Brina to help out. And what’s she gonna do? Seems to me it’s up to Sun. And she’s got options. She can kick Josephine and that might drive Francesca back into the safe corner. That would be fun to see! But if Sun’s a ninja she knows the escape from a full nelson. If she keeps her head she’ll use that and we’ll be seeinig Josephine take out her partner Yay!!!
Scissor head-lock take down. Sun will then use her momentum to flip the “Other York” over her back then a jumping tag to Brina who will start cleaning house. During the cluster-eff, Sun will jump in to take the Illegal York out allowing Sabrina to hit the US. 1-2-3. 3 more pages, tops.
T-M, that is the fundamental law in wrestling! Â Glad to have you back, spacing, comments and all. 😀
Hey MGC, glad you liked the Voting Incentive. 😀 Â Sun’s as fast as ever, she’s just been getting beaten up by the Yorks for a while. Â She’s showing some fight, but that last panel is sort of ominous. It’d be a mistake to take anything away from the ability of the Yorks, as just chalking it up to Sun not being good.
Hi, Jan. Â I don’t know what PV is. Â So, that might be a ‘no.’
Hey Champ! Â Glad you liked the update. Â I think its up to Sun too but its looking kind of rough for her in that last panel. Â I do like your options for Sun. Â It’s too bad you’re not in their corner! Â Ha ha! Â Can Sun escape? Â We’ll see on Wednesday.
Jamie, I like the counter you’re calling. Â I love how you’re calling the match and even ‘babe ruth-ing’ the finish! Â We should get a pool going. XD
::starts rustling up a big pan of ginger cookies:: Either way, Sun’s gonna need some TLC after this is over. And I agree with T-M, Sabrina, GET YOUR BUTT IN THERE! I’m a little hazy on the rules for tag-team, but if the Yorkies can double-team and get away with it, there’s obviously some timing window that should let Sabrina do it too. Or maybe the ref’s just lazy.
It’s what I do.
Yeah, ditto on the incentive! She’s a wicked drawrer. I think it could be a good $10 to have Jamie, Tammy and Owen done.
Sun just not having much luck in this match.Sabrina should have been in there breaking out that pin instead of having Sun use up energy kicking out herself.i beleive Sun can still pull her butt out of the fire and make that tag, love to see them start to bash those twin bandanas.
oops sorry for double post but meant banana >.>
Cookie Ogre, you got the right idea about the double teaming. Â Fight fire with fire! Â And the ref is lazy. 😛
Jamie, I highly recommend using Jenn for some bust commissions. Â You won’t be sorry.
Ha ha, Bananas! Â Jenn, Sabrina is still stuck on playing by the rules, but you have to think that this sort of encounter is opening her eyes to things. Â Hopefully she comes to the realization before its too late i.e. Sun getting creamed!
Heh. Bust.
Ah, the good old “isolate the smaller tag team partner” move. The York sisters, as an experienced heel tag team, are probably experts at that. Sun wanted the match though, so I can’t feel too bad for her. Probably see a the “hot tag” to Sabrina this week.
Anyone watch Dragonball Z? Every season was pretty much a build up as the good guys fought the overwhelming villain until they could get the hot tag to Goku. Seriously, Goku is Ricky Morton.
Anyway, I like panel 3 a lot, that is a difficult position to draw and you did it very well.
Â
Â
Â
Â
Jamie, it’s always a good bit. Â 😉
Ken, you’re knowledge of old school tag team wrestling is solid. Â Way to mix it in with Dragonball too! Â Glad you liked panel 3! Â Between you and I, I accidentally drew Fran with three legs. Â D’oh!
theres alot moves that someone of suns ability can pull off to avoid this situation. id like to see her use something like Rey Mysterios wheelbarrow bulldog (swing her legs down around frans waist for some momentum, the pull herself up to help break the grip on her arms then one-handed bulldog. it floors frannie and seats herself leaving josies seeming lariet kissing nothing but air and some awesomeness residue
I’m going to say that Sun will kick at the incoming York Sister and gouge at the eyes of the other holding her up… or maybe kick her shin to distract her… Possibly Sabrina will grab at the leg of the one holding Sun up… but I’ve lost the overall location of where Sabrina is in this match…
T-M, that’s a great sounding counter for Sun. She’s certainly able to pull that off, so we’ll see what happens tomorrow. 😉
Hey Kurt! Â Way to call the upcoming action! Â Definite possibilities there. Â Sabrina is about as far away as you can be and still be in the match. 😛
Noooo! You were supposed to make the tag! If the other banana (Josie) enters the ring without the official tag, Sabrina ought to cream her… Hopefully!
sabrina loves the rules too much to come in and help sun >_> i can see some tension coming up between the two of them if sun gets too much double team pounding without some ultra-help
Â
Personally, looking at the positions and considering how smaller and quicker wrestlers usually operate….
I see Sun using the Yorks against themselves this time.
Step one, use the hold she’s in for a balance point to kick Josie in the face.
Step two, use the kick to Josie’s face to push herself up and over, breaking the hold and dropping behind the other one.
Step three, hit the ropes so Frannie tries to back drop her and gets used as a stepladder for a big hit on Josie (or a springboard over her)Â Â and then a fast tag.
While there’s a lot of luchador styling in RA from what I’vce seen, there’s a huge amount of classic influences as well and it’s a classic thing that the hells who double team a ton get bitten for it part of the time, usually against the biggest fan favorites or the underestimated newcombers. This would be a heck of a place for it to go wrong for them since these two can fit both bills.
@T-M
Â
hmmm.. I wouldn’t blame ‘Ultragirl’ Sabrina Mancini here (Glass just shatter) ..
I kinda blame Sun here (another glass shatter)..
Â
‘Ultragirl’ Sabrina Mancini is just following their game plan, in which is quick tag and double team.. review 242-243.. Sabrina executed a shoulder block on “Frannie” Francesca York. then 243, Â Sabrina tagged Sun in, then the double team.. Sun just made a mistake, huge one.. ‘Ultragirl’ Sabrina Mancini tried to help, but more double team on Sun, made it worst..
Â
(Sample)
Let make it, into another sport like Basketball: X Team scores:45, Y Team scores: 30, subtitution made my the X team, while the Y team players remain the same. 3 minutes pass, now the score is tied. 45-45.. who would be blame, surely to blame the subtitute players..
Â
Panel 3: Sabrina didn’t help, coz she’s hesitated to help coz of what happen in episode 244.
just think if Sabrina interfere here..
(What if Sabrina interfere)
The referee stopped the count, and blocked Sabrina. then Josephine rushed into the ring. then York Sisters executed ‘flapjack cutter’ (A.KA. Dudley Death drop) on Sun. as Sabrina went back to her corner, now Josephine clothesline Sabrina from behind, as Sabrina crashed out to the ring. then  Francesca pinned Sun. 1…..2….3..
Â
@Albone
(sorry for the harsh comment on Sun)
T-M, you might be right about that, Sabrina’s rule following causing some tension, but probably not in the way that you might think. O_o
Ah Salazen, you always have a great grasp for what’s going on. I never really thought about it, but yeah, there’s definitely some good lucha action along with the old school. Â Some of my favorite stuff to watch!! Â Soon, we’ll find out just what’s going to happen next in this match.
Wow MGC, whooda thunk that you’d do a 180 here! Â That’s okay to fall in and out of love with characters as their actions dictate. Â Not a bad hypothesis for why Sabrina didn’t come break up the double team. Â More on that shortly.
