Entry #11
First, there was the loud sound of a two swords clanging sharply against one another. Next came the entrance music that most TNA fans love to hear. The audience turned their attention toward the stage and waited for arguably the most decorated TNA Knockout ever. A few seconds later, a thirty-seven year old, Korean wrestler appeared in the middle of the stage.
She was pointing toward the sky and then toward all of her faithful fans.This sexy, beautiful and powerful veteran had silky, long black hair that dangled past her shoulders. She wore a light purple bra with a matching short shorts. If one were to look carefully, they could see a small belly piercing underneath her navel. The TNA Knockouts also had blackish kneepads and black boots. But what made everyone in the arena super excited was that this woman had a championship belt around her waist.
"Oh yes! Entering at #11, the current TNA Knockouts Champion! Gail Kim is ready to make to make a statement in the Ryona Rumble!"
"Probably the most successful Knockout in TNA! A four-time Knockouts Champion! A former Tag Team Knockouts Champion! She was the Knockout of the Year in 2007 and the Queen of TNA in 2013! And get this, Al! Pro Wrestling Illustrated had ranked this lovely competitor the best female singles wrestler in 2012!"
"Truly an accomplished individual! She will go down as one of the greatest, if not the greatest, Knockouts of all time! But oh man, just think about how winning the Ryona Rumble would add to her legacy!"
"Well she is the freshest competitor right now! So her chances are very high at the moment!"
As Gail Kim skipped down the ramp, one of the remaining competitors had a surprised look on her face. Beth Phoenix was shocked to see one of her old rivals again.
She remembered some of the matches they had fought back in the WWE. But there is a difference between then and now. Gail Kim now has a championship belt around her waist, while she was just coming out of retirement.
The thirty-seven year old competitor dropped her TNA Knockouts Championship belt and climbed on the apron.
She saw the #6 entrant coming her way.
Gail Kim countered by thrusting her shoulders into the gut of the former WWE Diva.
Beth Phoenix clenched her stomach and backed up a couple of steps.
This gave the current TNA Knockouts Champion a chance to strike while her opponent was winded.
Gail Kim climbed on top of the adjacent turnbuckle and waited for the right opportunity.
Once she saw Beth Phoenix was coming to, she sprang off of the corner and planted both soles of her feet into her opponent's chest.
The TNA Knockout connected with a beautifully executed missile dropkick that sent the blonde tumbling on her back.
Gail Kim quickly returned to a standing position and pointed toward the sky once more.
"YEAAAAAAAAAAAH!" The crowd roared.
With momentum on her side, the Korean wrestler kept the pace going. She grabbed Beth Phoenix by the hair and helped her back to a standing position.
Gail Kim then locked hands with her opponent and gave it a little twist, making sure that the former WWE Diva wasn't going anywhere.
Next, she trotted toward the nearest turnbuckle and climbed all the way to the top rope.
Just to be sure she wouldn't get eliminated, the TNA Knockouts Champion leaped back into the ring and rolled on the mat, executing an arm drag at the same time.
She flipped Beth Phoenix on her back and forced her to roll on the opposite corner.
"Oh my God! Did you see that? Gail Kim has been lighting it up ever since she's entered the matchup!"
"Well, let's not forget that she is the freshest competitor right now, Al! While the other women in the ring have been wearing each other out, the next entrant can come pick up the pieces and take advantage!"
Now that one of her opponents was out of the way, Gail Kim could focus on the second wrestler in the ring.
She turned and noticed Sakura Hagiwara once again using the ropes to assist her back to a vertical base. On the other hand, she had one of her arms clutched around her waist, signifying how much pain her ribs was in. Even the cringed look on her face told the Korean that she wouldn't last long.
But when Gail Kim approached the Japanese teenage and grabbed her by the hair, the former idol broke the hold and started to fight back.
She caught the TNA Knockouts Champion by surprise by delivering a few quick forearm strikes to the face.
Sakura had the eleventh entrant reeling, forcing her back to the ropes.
Hagiwara followed up with some roundkicks to Gail Kim's gut, which made her opponent double over.
Next, Sakura Irish Whipped the #11 entrant to the opposite side of the ring.
The TNA Knockouts Champion bounced off the ropes and dashed toward the seventeen year old girl.
Hagiwara had her arm extended, ready to give Gail Kim a huge clothesline. But the veteran ducked underneath the attack and ricocheted off of the opposite ropes.
When she charged toward the #1 entrant once more, she wrapped her arms around her opponent's waist and brought her body parallel to the ground as she drove her shoulder into Sakura's midsection.
Both bodies landed hard on the canvas.
However, it was the teenage idol that suffered the most damage. The powerful spear delivered by Gail Kim almost folded the poor girl in half.
Once again, her stomach took the full force of the takedown. Hagiwara cringed in agony and clutched her midsection with both arms. Her legs kicked about, showing the entire audience how much pain she was in.
"WOW! WHAT A SPEAR BY GAIL KIM! SHE ALMOST BROKE SAKURA HAGIWARA IN HALF!"
"And it looks like the champ isn't through with her opponent just yet!"
Gail Kim grabbed Sakura's long, dark hair and helped the groggy teenage back to her feet.
The Korean wrestler then grabbed both of the former idol's arms and twisted the young woman around so that she has her opponent in a straitjacket hold.
Gail Kim looked around and noticed that the crowd was on their feet, anticipating what's about to happen next.
Finally, the TNA Knockouts Champion dropped down to the mat to complete the straitjacket neckbreaker.
Sakura laid flat on her back with her limbs spread out wide.
"Man, Gail Kim is on fire, folks! Just look at her go!"
"Regaining the prestigious TNA Knockouts Championship has given this woman confidence! It doesn't matter who's in the ring! Gail Kim competes on a very high level day in and day out!"
"You said it, partner! Remember back in the old days when she had all of those brutal matches against Awesome Kong, one of the most dominant competitors in women's wrestling?"
"Gail Kim has made her mark in this sport by defeating Awesome Kong and becoming a five time TNA Knockouts Champion! As a matter of fact, many have consider her to be one of the favorite for winning the Ryona Rumble matchup!"
The Korean wrestler turned around and saw Beth Phoenix on one knee.
But when Gail Kim got too close, the sixth entrant caught her opponent by surprise by delivering a right punch to her gut.
The Glamazon's attack forced Gail Kim to bend over and cover her midsection.
Beth Phoenix then Irish Whipped the eleventh entrant toward the ropes.
The Glamazon then picked Gail Kim off of the ground.
Next, Beth Phoenix dropped her opponent on top of her knee.
The TNA Knockouts Champion arched her spine and moaned in pain.
The blonde displayed her dominance by performing her signature taunt to all of the Gail Kim fans.
Beth Phoenix then locked the latest entrant up in a chicken wing hold and got her back to a standing position.
From the sly grin on the Glamazon's face, it looked as if she's ready to give the TNA Knockouts Champion a powerful Glam Slam. But just when she was about to lift her opponent up, Gail Kim countered with a back elbow shot to Beth Phoenix's face.
The second elbow from the eleventh entrant forced the Glamazon to release the hold.
Once the champion was free, Gail Kim grabbed her opponent's arm and Irish Whipped her to the other side of the ring.
But instead of releasing the Glamazon's arm, the Korean wrestler grabbed her own arm with her other hand for leverage.
Next, she placed a foot on Beth Phoenix's face and fell backwards.
The inverted stomp facebreaker made the Glamazon collapse in the middle of the ring with a dazed look on her face.
"What a counter by the five time Knockouts Champion! An Eat Defeat has knocked out Beth Phoenix!"
"The best WWE Diva went up against the best TNA Knockout! And this time, Gail Kim came out on top!"
The Korean refocused her attention on her other opponent, who was lying by the ropes.
First, Gail Kim stomped on Sakura's belly a couple of times.
After wearing Hagiwara down, she got her back to a vertical base.
Gail Kim then lifted the teenage idol on her shoulder.
The Korean wrestler rushed toward the ropes and tried to toss her opponent out of the ring.
But Hagiwara woke up at the last second and quickly grabbed on to the ropes just before the TNA Knockout could throw her out.
Again, Gail Kim tried to toss her opponent out of the ring and eliminate her, but Sakura refused to give up. She held on to the ropes tight like her life depended on it. No matter what the Korean tried, Hagiwara would not let go.
Since there's still some fight in her, Gail Kim brought her back in the ring to do some more damage.
After a few forearm shots to the face, the champion Irish Whipped the Japanese girl toward the opposite side of the ring.
But when Sakura ricocheted off of the ropes, she was in position to take back control of the match.
Hagiwara sprang off of her feet and connected with her signature dropkick, knocking Gail Kim to the floor.
Of course, Sakura landed on her midsection, which further damaged her injured ribs.
But this small sign of life brought all of her fans off of their seat and into a cheering frenzy. The #1 entrant used their support as energy to keep herself going in the match. She may have took a lot of punishment the pass twenty minutes or so, but she vowed to win no matter what.
Sakura helped Gail Kim back to her feet and draped one of her arms over her shoulder.
When the young woman hoisted her opponent up, she tried to go for a vertical suplex.
On the other hand, Gail Kim countered by rotating her body at the apex of the throw.
As the TNA Knockout completed the rotation, she placed both of her knees against Sakura's back.
Gail Kim may have landed hard on her own back, but it was worth the cost in order to give Hagiwara a bone chilling Back Stabber.
"Oh God! Listen to Sakura howling in pain! I sure felt that Back Stabber from here!"
"Gail Kim has been impressive ever since she's been in the ring! She's shown a lot of moves even I have never seen before! Remember, the only way to eliminate your opponent is to throw them over the top rope and have their feet touch the floor!"
All of the competitors were on the mat. Sakura was flipping around the ring and writhing in severe agony.
Meanwhile, Beth Phoenix was crawling toward one of the turnbuckles. While she was still feeling the effects of Gail Kim's finisher, she was able to reach the corner.
As for the latest entrant, that last attack she did on Sakura came with a price. Gail Kim arched her back into a C, showing everyone the physical toll her entire movesets has on her own body.
As the three competitors recovered, numbers appeared on the titantron. The countdown for the next entrant to appear was underway.
"Who's going to enter at #12?"
"We're about to find out! Here we go!"
