There are now three entrants remaining in the Ryona Rumble. The crowd was treated to almost eighty minutes of nonstop action from the strongest females on the planet. Throughout the match, the people saw their favorite fighters enter the ring and kick a lot of ass, before they were thrown over the top rope.
After the most recent elimination, Sakura Hagiwara, Awesome Kong and Beth Phoenix are the only ones left.
Because she had entered the match at #1, Sakura has been on the receiving end of over a hundred different kinds of attacks, throws and holds. While the fans of the teenage idol continued to cheer for the seventeen year old girl, many of audience members were amazed that she was able to last this long. And after enduring all of that punishment and humiliation, it surprised everyone that Sakura Hagiwara is still in the ring.
But with a couple more of the strongest female wrestlers to deal with, winning seemed all but impossible.
One of the remaining competitors was Awesome Kong, who is the freshest entrant out of the three women in the ring. The African American woman easily overpowered the seventeen year old girl. Even if Sakura Hagiwara could fight back, there's no way she could ever toss this decorated veteran out of the ring.
Secondly, Beth Phoenix is also a tough out. Despite the fact that she entered at #6, the Glamazon has proven why she is the dominant woman in the WWE.
There's also the fact that Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong are still a team.
"This is bad! Sakura Hagiwara's defenseless! This is going to be a two-on-one assault!"
"I like the strategy Awesome Kong and Beth Phoenix are about to implement! Focus on the much smaller woman, Sakura Hagiwara! Try to wear her down so they can eliminate her from the competition!"
"Wear her down? Ray, she's been destroyed and decimated for almost eighty minutes! You don't think they've done enough damage already?"
"That's precisely what the sellout crowd came to see! They want to see carnage! They want to see destruction! They want to see some of the world's hottest females beat the crap out of each other! And if it's all in Sakura's suspense, then so be it!"
As the powerhouse duo approached the injured Sakura Hagiwara, Beth Phoenix kept her eyes on her partner.
On the outside, she looked ready to finally get rid of the Japanese wrestler once and for all. But on the inside, the Glamazon was trying to think of ways on how to eliminate her own partner. Once when Sakura Hagiwara is out of the ring, then the two of them will square off one-on-one to determine who the winner of the Ryona Rumble will be. Regardless of her reputation of being the strongest Diva in the WWE, a part of her believes that Awesome Kong may be too much for her to handle.
The Glamazon quietly formulated a plan to effectively eliminate the biggest threat of the match.
Moments later, the thirtieth entrant had reached the Japanese wrestler, who was lying flat on her stomach.
Awesome Kong grabbed Sakura Hagiwara by the hair and pulled her up to her knees.
Everyone in the arena could see that the seventeen year old girl was out like a light.
She was not responding to any of Awesome Kong's moves, nor showing signs of any life. If the African American wrestler tossed Hagiwara out of the ring right now, Sakura probably wouldn't save herself.
But then, Awesome Kong felt someone tapping on her shoulder. When the thirtieth entrant turned toward the Glamazon, she was expecting for her partner to turn on her and try to eliminate her.
Instead, Beth Phoenix smiled and shook her head from side to side, wordlessly telling the African American wrestler that there's going to be a change of plan.
Awesome Kong gazed at the former WWE Diva with confusion as the Glamazon made her way toward the edge of the ring and requested for a microphone.
Finally, Beth Phoenix stood in the middle of the ring and faced the African American wrestler with her microphone in hand.
"NOW, HOLD ON A MINUTE, KONG! THESE PEOPLE CAME TO SEE A DEMOLITION! THEY'VE SPENT THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY TO WATCH US DESTROY THE OTHER COMPETITORS!"
"YEAAAAAAAAAAH!" The audience agreed, which made Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong smirk.
"I SAY WE GIVE THE CROWD WHAT THEY PAID FOR! HOW ABOUT YOU AND I PUT ON A LITTLE CLINIC FOR THE PEOPLE!"
The Glamazon's proposition made the African American wrestler raise her eyebrow with interest. The sixth entrant knew she had her partner's attention, which was exactly what she wanted.
"HOW ABOUT IT, KONG? WHY DON'T YOU AND I HAVE A LITTLE CONTEST? LET'S SHOWCASE SOME OF OUR BEST MOVES TO THE AUDIENCE AND WE'LL LET THEM DECIDE WHO IS BETTER! AND WE'LL USE HER AS OUR ASSISTANT!"
Some of the fans booed when the former WWE Diva pointed toward the nearly lifeless Sakura Hagiwara.
Too bad they were drowned out by the cheers of the rest of the crowd.
"AFTER WE HAVE OUR FUN, THEN YOU AND I CAN GET DOWN TO BUSINESS, TO DETERMINE WHICH OF US IS SUPERIOR! WHAT DO YOU SAY?"
After hearing the proposition, the African American wrestler nodded with a huge smirk on her face. To her, it not only sounded like a great plan, but a fun one too. Awesome Kong has nothing to lose, rather than a little bit of her humanity after she has disposed of Sakura Hagiwara. She and the Glamazon grinned at one another.
With the shape the poor Japanese wrestler is in, she cannot fight back when the two of them began their showcase for the crowd.
But When Beth Phoenix saw her partner grinning and nodding, she knew that Awesome Kong had took the bait. Now, it's only a matter of time before she springs the trap. Once when the thirtieth entrant has lowered her guard, the former WWE Divas will send her over the top rope without her even knowing. But with that being said, the Glamazon must be patient, especially with a talented and decorated wrestler like Awesome Kong as her opponent. When the time is right, Beth Phoenix will make her move.
Until then, she'll just focus on entertaining the sellout crowd by making Sakura Hagiwara's life a living hell.
"Did you hear that, Ray? It looks like Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong are not only going to continue with their alliance, but they're also putting the match on hold so that they can destroy Sakura Hagiwara!"
"This is huge, Al! We get to see a two of the best female wrestlers on the planet put on a show for us! It's rare to see Awesome Kong and Beth Phoenix in the same ring! Now, they're going to showcase a bunch of moves in their arsenal in front of the sellout crowd of over fifty thousand! What a treat!"
"Treat? Are you serious? They're going to dish out all kinds of punishment on Sakura Hagiwara who can't even walk, let alone stand up! This is ridiculous! God dammit! What the hell is this? Sakura's done already! She has no chance to win the Ryona Rumble! She's going to need lots of medical attention when this match is over! And now, Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong are going to decimate and devastate her even more! You think they're going to end Hagiwara's wrestling career? They'll probably end her life before this match is over!"
"Nice to know how you really feel, Al! I told you before that Sakura Hagiwara knew what she was signing up for the moment she stepped into this match! There's going to be pain! There's going to be humiliation! There's going to be plenty of opportunities where everything will be on the line! That's what this sport is all about! Sure, Sakura is going to be put through hell in the next few moments! But who's going to stop Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong? They can do whatever they want to Sakura! Unless the young wrestler can do something about, she better be prepared to have her career ended, their life ended, a small injury, a serious injury, or being paralyzed!"
Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong decided to start off slow. The Glamazon first helped the Japanese wrestler back to her feet and put her in a full nelson hold.
The audience could see how helpless Sakura Hagiwara was in the position she was in.
Awesome Kong relished the sight over the teenage idol's helplessness.
The African American woman then lightly slapped the seventeen year old girl's face to get her to wake up.
A few moments later, mild groans escaped out of Hagiwara's mouth.
Finally, Sakura opened her eyes and realized that she was trapped
She also saw the thirtieth entrant giving her a smirk filled with malicious intent.
Before the Japanese wrestler could figure out that she was trapped, Awesome Kong went right to work on Sakura's exposed belly with multiple punches and kicks to her exposed midsection.
Hagiwara moaned in pain and gasped for breath each time the thirtieth entrant struck her stomach.
The large woman showed the poor woman no mercy.
Unfortunately, the teenage idol could not protect herself, since the Glamazon has both of her arms locked.
Awesome Kong kept attacking her opponent's midsection with more punches and kicks.
Sakura grunted every time her poor belly got hit by her opponent.
The Japanese wrestler could only endure the agony for so long.
Finally, Sakura was down on her knees, almost out of breath.
Beth Phoenix released the hold on the Japanese wrestler, which made Hagiwara fall to the mat.
Her arms clenched around her injured stomach, showing her fans the pain she's in.
Too bad the teenage idol wasn't given any reprieve.
Now, it's Awesome Kong's turn to hold up the nearly breathless Japanese wrestler, while Beth Phoenix took some shots into her opponent's stomach.
The thirtieth entrant brought Hagiwara back to her feet and.
Like her partner, she put the seventeen year old girl in a full nelson hold.
Before going back on the attack, Beth Phoenix would slap the gently slap the young woman's face to make sure that she was wide awake to feel the oncoming onslaught.
Moments later, the Japanese wrestler was wide awake for the next onslaught.
Not wanting to waste any more time, the Glamazon pulled back and released a flurry of punches to the gut of Sakura Hagiwara.
She tenderized her belly like a pound of meat.
Beth Phoenix also added some kicks and knee strikes to further damage Sakura's ribs.
The poor Japanese wrestler was in a lot of trouble.
Again, she could not defend herself from the powerful strikes and shots delivered by the three-time WWE Women's Champion.
Hagiwara felt like she was going to throw up.
She could hardly stand and was having one of the worst stomach aches of her life.
"This has suddenly turned into a belly devastation! Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong are pounding the living hell out of Sakura's stomach!"
"It's like a game! They're trying to see who can land the most hits on Hagiwara's midsection before she passes out!"
"This is ridiculous! Sakura Hagiwara is a talented, young woman who has so much to look forward to in her career as a wrestler! It's a shame to see her in this position where she can't even protect herself!"
After a while, Sakura Hagiwara couldn't stand up anymore.
Awesome Kong released the full nelson hold on the beaten, young woman.
Beth Phoenix stepped away from the winded Hagiwara.
The teenage idol crashes on the canvas.
She clutched her belly and coughed profusely for air.
Thanks to the two-on-one assault, her body couldn't take anymore punishment.
The way her opponent's head hung down made the Japanese wrestler look helpless.
Her chest heaved with each breath she took.
Many figure that Sakura could not fight any more after enduring all of that punishment.
Sadly, her torture was only beginning.
With another contest in mind, Beth Phoenix brought the dazed Hagiwara to a vertical base.
The Glamazon reached between her opponent's legs with one arm and reached around the teenage idol's back from the same side with her other arm.
The sixth entrant then lifted the Japanese wrestler up so they are horizontal across her body.
Beth Phoenix effortlessly walked toward the edge of the ring with an evil smirk on her face.
She even gave her partner a smug grin, showing off her power to the African American wrestler.
Even Awesome Kong was impressed.
Finally, the Glamazon walked toward the edge of the ring.
She fell backward, hoisting Hagiwara over her head.
Thanks to her raw power, she sent the poor girl flying.
Hagiwara slammed down to the mat back-first.
Sakura bounced on the canvas and arched her back, feeling the entire impact of that Fallaway Slam.
The Japanese wrestler writhed in excruciating agony.
Beth Phoenix then stood on the spot where the Japanese wrestler had landed.
She gazed back at her partner and smiled.
"LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN THROW FURTHER THAN THAT!" The Glamazon challenged.
Awesome Kong shrugged before giving it a go.
She helped the teenage idol back to a vertical base.
Just like her partner, the thirtieth entrant brought the injured young woman to the same position Beth Phoenix had her in.
It didn't take much effort to have Sakura Hagiwara's body horizontal across hers.
The African American wrestler made her way toward the edge of the ring.
She easily carried the Japanese teenage like a sack of potatoes.
Before finishing her power move, Awesome Kong glanced behind her to see the spot where Beth Phoenix had chucked Hagiwara.
Knowing that she could do better, the African American wrestler bent down to gain some momentum.
With her massive strength, she threw her opponent over her body.
Awesome Kong fell down to add more power to her throw, sending the Japanese wrestler flying across the ring.
Beth Phoenix watched in amazement as her partner chucked Sakura a little more than halfway across the ring.
Finally, Sakura Hagiwara crashed on to the mat.
The Japanese wrestler was in a lot of pain.
After taking two Fallaway Slams in a row, it's a miracle that she's still alive and in this match.
The young woman rolled on her stomach and nearly lost consciousness.
"Oh, dear Lord! That's two consecutive Fallaway Slams on Sakura Hagiwara! You can only imagine the pain her back is in after that impact!"
"The Glamazon wanted to see if Awesome Kong could throw her opponent as far as she did! Looks like you got your answer, Beth Phoenix! It looks like that Awesome Kong has won this little contest!"
The thirtieth entrant flexed her muscles at the sixth entrant, showing her superior strength.
But the Glamazon shook her head like she wasn't that impressed.
Even though she lost the first showcase, there's plenty more left to come.
Beth Phoenix politely stepped back and allowed Awesome Kong to do more damage on the beaten Sakura Hagiwara.
With that, the African American woman already has something planned for her opponent.
She brought the injured Japanese wrestler to a vertical base. The large wrestler has another way of showing her amazing power to the fans, as well as her partner.
Awesome Kong draped Hagiwara's arm over her shoulder and lifted her up in the air.
Obviously, the thirtieth entrant was going for another vertical suplex.
However, Awesome Kong decided to add some theatrics to the mix. While holding on to her opponent, the thirtieth entrant performed a squat, which excited the crowd.
Awesome Kong effortless performed another squat to show off her strength and power.
Meanwhile, Sakura Hagiwara could feel the blood rushing into her head.
She was becoming dizzier with each passing moment.
After about a fifteen second delay, Awesome Kong returned to her regular positon and fell backwards.
Using all of her power, she slammed her opponent down hard on the canvas.
Sakura rolled over on her side with one hand barely massaging her spine.
The poor teenage idol has suffered an enormous amount throughout the entire match.
Most of the crowd couldn't see the anguished look on her face because her hair had concealed it.
But whatever Awesome Kong can do, Beth Phoenix can do better.
The Glamazon again brought Sakura Hagiwara back to her feet.
The sixth entrant couldn't wait to outperform her partner.
She draped Sakura's arm over the back of her neck and lifted her opponent up, going for a delayed vertical suplex.
To show off her power, Beth Phoenix did some squats while holding the Japanese wrestler in midair.
The crowd cheered for the former WWE Divas, while some of the fans knew that the Glamazon was capable of doing such a thing.
But from the look on the blonde's face, she knew that she needed to do more to outperform her partner.
Finally, the blonde turned and spotted an unoccupied turnbuckle.
While still having the groggy Japanese wrestler up off of the ground, Beth Phoenix walked toward the corner.
The thirtieth entrant gave the Glamazon a strange look, wondering what she's planning to do to the injured Sakura Hagiwara.
Before long, Beth Phoenix began to climb to the second rope of the turnbuckle by only using her legs.
The audience took pictures and recorded on their phones the amazing strength of the three-time WWE Women's Champion, as she reached the top with the seventeen year old girl hanging helplessly in the air.
They were very impressed when the Glamazon reached the top, using just her lower body strength.
Once the blonde had reached the top rope, she fell backwards toward the mat.
Beth Phoenix delivered an impacting Sky High Superplex to Sakura.
Hagiwara's back crashed hard into the canvas.
she sat up from her spot while massaging her already injured spine.
But the pain was too much.
Her eyes rolled into the back of her head and the Japanese wrestler fell back on the mat with her four limbs spread out wide.
"No way! Are you serious? Did you see that?"
"I sure did! A pair of delayed vertical suplexes with different theatrics from each wrestler! I can't tell which is more impressive, Al! What do you think? Would you go with Awesome Kong and the way she held Sakura up in the air with one arm? Or would you go with Beth Phoenix and how she climbed the turnbuckle with Sakura in her grasp to deliver one of the most devastating suplexes we've ever seen!"
"Both are impressive, Ray! But what doesn't impress me is the fact that they are manhandling Sakura Hagiwara without any remorse! They could've eliminated her a long time ago! Instead, they're going to destroy her and her future as a professional wrestler! This may be remarkable display of power and technique by Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong! But I can't stand the monstrosity these two competitors are showing to a defenseless young woman!"
Judging from how loud of a crowd reaction the Glamazon had received, the thirtieth entrant had a feeling that her partner had one the last round.
But she shrugged it off and kept her smile. After all, she still has tons of bring more pain and suffering to the teenage idol.
Awesome Kong motioned the former WWE Diva to come closer so that she can tell her partner what their next plan of action should be.
Beth Phoenix's face lit up when she heard the large woman's idea.
Still wanting to demolish Sakura Hagiwara even more, the Glamazon helped the injured wrestler back to a vertical base.
Again, the blonde lightly slapped the teenage idol's face a few times to wake her up.
It took Beth Phoenix a while to awaken the Japanese wrestler because of how much damage she had took throughout the whole match.
But sure enough, Hagiwara opened her eyes and allowed a subtle moan of agony escape her lips.
Suddenly, Beth Phoenix scooped her opponent horizontally and held her up for several moments.
The Glamazon then walked around the ring so that the sellout crowd to show off her unmatched power.
The crowd could see the scared look on Sakura's face.
Beth Phoenix also gazed at her partner, determined to impress the large woman with this next move.
After a while, the Glamazon was ready to go right back to work.
The former WWE Diva dropped down to one knee, slamming the Japanese wrestler's back on her other knee.
"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Sakura screamed out in fiery agony.
The discs in her back popped, like one would crack a knuckle joint.
But that one backbreaker was only a sample of what her opponents had in store.
Now, it was Awesome Kong's turn to do some damage.
With her hands underneath Hagiwara's back and leg, the thirtieth entrant deadlifted the teenage idol off of the Glamazon's knee, holding her horizontally.
But then, the African American woman flipped the Japanese wrestler over so that she was facing the canvas.
Awesome Kong dropped down to one knee, slamming Sakura's stomach on her other knee.
"GUH... UGH!" The seventeen year old girl moaned out.
It felt as if wind was being pumped out of her.
After the devastating gutbuster, the pattern continued.
Back and forth, Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong went.
They took turns doing damage to Sakura Hagiwara's beaten body.
The Glamazon would lift the Japanese wrestler off of the African American woman's knee and deliver another huge Backbreaker.
This would make the teenage idol cry out in pain.
But right after that, Awesome Kong would lift the teenage idol off of Beth Phoenix's knee and slam poor Sakura Hagiwara stomach first onto her knee.
The gut buster made the nearly breathless girl cough and moan in agony.
"OOH!" The audience sang when the former WWE Diva gave the Japanese wrestler another Backbreaker.
"AAH!" Again the crowd chanted when the large woman gave Hagiwara another Gutbuster.
But no one can comprehend exactly how Sakura was feeling, going through this kind of torture.
Her mouth remained open, yet not a single sound escaped out of her lips.
Her body spasmed in pain each time her Beth Phoenix gave her a Backbreaker.
Unfortunately, it was the same thing when Awesome Kong gave her a Gutbuster. She couldn't do anything to stop her tormentors, as they clearly have the strength to pick her up and do whatever they wanted to.
The pain was too much for her to bear, she should've passed out a while ago.
But every time her back and/or her stomach collided against her tormentors' knee, the agony would bring the injured young woman back to reality.
White hot tears streamed down the poor girl's face.
She could not handle any more punishment.
She wished that the torture would end right now so that she could get out of here with her life.
After the tenth backbreaker and the tenth gutbuster, the pair of powerhouses dropped the Japanese wrestler to the canvas. The pain in her spine and her ribs were immense. Her arms and fingers twitched in agony, showing to the crowd that she has had enough.
Miraculously, neither her spine nor her ribs were actually broken. But the damage has clearly and certainly been done.
Awesome Kong and Beth Phoenix struck their signature pose toward the crowd.
"A remarkable display of dominance by the Glamazon and her partner! I have never seen such devastation on one person in my whole life!"
"Neither have I, Ray! I got to be honest here! I'm trying to be as professional as I can and call the match as it is! But this isn't even a match anymore! This has turned into a destructive fest for Sakura Hagiwara! I can guarantee you that our medical personnel will rush her to the nearest hospital once this is over!"
Unfortunately for the teenage idol, her torture was far from over. The two powerhouse wrestlers already have the next set of moves planned for Sakura.
This time, Beth Phoenix decided to go first. She started off by wrapping one hand around Hagiwara's neck.
Poor Sakura could barely breathe and endure the excruciating agony in her body at the same time.
Effortless, the former WWE Diva lifted her back to a standing position.
Subconsciously, the seventeen year old girl tried to remove the Glamazon's grip off of her throat. Sadly, she was too weak to fight back. Mild gags came out of her mouth as the former WWE Diva tightened her grip.
Next, the sixth entrant placed her opponent's arm around the back of her neck.
She lifted the young woman off of the ground, using her raw strength.
Before Hagiwara could figure out what's going on, Beth Phoenix threw the Japanese wrestler down to the mat.
The Japanese wrestler slammed hard back first on the unforgiving canvas.
The Chokeslam knocked out the teenage idol upon impact, forcing all four of her limbs to spread out.
Once she had completed her throw, the Glamazon glanced back at the African American wrestler to see if what she's got.
Needless to say that Awesome Kong had already accepted the challenge.
The large woman then brought the Japanese wrestler to a standing position with ease by picking her up by the hair.
Sure enough, that was enough to get the injured young woman to open her eyes.
From there, her troubles continued.
Just like her partner, the thirtieth entrant wrapped her ginormous hand around the throat of Sakura Hagiwara.
This made the teenage idol gasp for air.
But then, Awesome Kong placed her breathless opponent's arm around the back of her shoulder.
She effortlessly lifted her opponent high off of the ground, getting more elevation than her partner.
Finally, the African American wrestler slammed the teenage idol down on the canvas, causing her body to bounce on the mat.
The force of the chokeslam made Sakura Hagiwara flip on her stomach.
She lost consciousness shortly after.
"ONE MORE TIME! ONE MORE TIME!" The audience chanted in unison.
Apparently, they want to see more damage done to Sakura.
Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong complied with the peoples' wishes.
They both grabbed the Japanese wrestler by the hair and yanked her back to a vertical base.
Once when Sakura was wide awake once again, the sixth and thirtieth entrant both wrapped their hands around Hagiwara's throat.
Next, they placed both of the teenage idol's arms around the back of their shoulders.
The powerhouse pair then lifted their opponent high in the air.
They held the poor, young woman up for several moments, prolonging her suffering.
Finally, Awesome Kong and Beth Phoenix slammed Hagiwara down hard with a vicious and devastating Double Chokeslam.
"Oh God! For the love of God! This has gone too far! Sakura can't take any more! Why can't Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong do the right thing and just end it already?"
"They'll eliminate Sakura when they feel like it! They're in control! They can do whatever they want!"
The next set of moves the powerhouse pair decided to do on nearly lifeless Japanese wrestler involved their finishers. Awesome Kong was the first to start.
After yanking the teenage idol by the hair to wake her up, the African American woman kicked Hagiwara in the gut to make her bend over.
She then put the seventeen year old girl's head in between her thighs.
Awesome Kong hooked each of the opponent's arms behind her back.
Poor Sakura was at the mercy of her opponent.
The large wrestler pulled back on the young woman's arms, lifting her up so Sakura was held upside down facing in the same direction as Awesome Kong.
The thirtieth entrant held the helpless Japanese wrestler upside-down for a long period of time.
While some of the audience members thought that the thirtieth entrant was going for a double underhook piledriver, everyone else knew what was coming.
Too bad there was nothing Sakura could do to stop her opponent. She was in a bad and dangerous position.
Finally, Awesome Kong fells forward.
The large woman successfully planted her opponent's body into the mat.
The audience roared after she completed her Implant Buster.
But that power move had enough force to knock out Hagiwara.
But that was the Glamazon's cue to do even more damage to the beaten Japanese woman.
She grabbed Sakura by the hair and pulled her to her feet.
The Glamazon slapped her opponent's face a few times to wake her up.
It only took a few slaps to get the injured, young woman to open her eyes.
But the Glamazon was not in the mood to show her opponent any mercy.
Beth Phoenix first turned her opponent around.
She then put her opponent in a double chicken wing hold.
There was nowhere for poor Sakura to go.
Next, the three-time WWE Women's Champion lifted the Japanese wrestler off of the canvas.
She held the teenage idol there for the whole audience to see.
From there, it appeared as if Sakura is being crucified. The fans of the teenage idol could see the pain written in her face and the fear in her eyes. Regardless of the large number of bumps she had endured throughout the entire match, the Japanese wrestler knew the next move will hurt just as much as the last one.
Moments later, Beth Phoenix dropped to a seated position for extra impact.
She completed the most powerful Glam Slam she's ever delivered.
Poor Sakura crashed hard on the canvas.
The crowd audibly gasped as Sakura's face and body bounced off of the mat.
After delivering both of their finishing moves, one would believe that the powerhouse pair would be finished with the teenage idol. But the fans got a big surprise when they had another move up their sleeve.
Awesome Kong brought the nearly lifeless Sakura back to a vertical base.
She kicked her opponent in the gut, forcing her to bend over.
The African American woman placed Hagiwara's head in between her legs.
As expected, she hooked her opponent's arms behind her back.
It seemed as if Awesome Kong was going for another Implant Buster.
But then, Beth Phoenix joined in the assault.
She grabbed both of the Japanese wrestler's legs and held her opponent in a wheelbarrow clutch, which was the position the Glamazon normally transitions into when she's about to deliver her Glam Slam.
There was a brief moment when the sixth and the thirtieth entrant had eye contact with each other. To them, that was their signal to execute their finishing moves at the same time.
Moments later, Awesome Kong dropped to her knees, while Beth Phoenix transitioned to a seated position.
As a result, the powerhouse pair had delivered a double team move no one has ever seen before.
The Double Underhook/Sitout Facebuster did the most damage to the poor teenage idol.
And that got the crowd screaming and cheering with excitement and exhilaration.
"UGH!" Sakura moaned when her gorgeous face and slender body slammed mercilessly on the canvas.
Sure enough, the double team move of Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong knocked her out cold again.
The powerhouse pair stood up and struck their signature poses in front of the crowd, which increased the intensity and volume of the cheers.
"NO WAY! NO FREAKING WAY WE JUST SAW THAT! AN IMPLANT BUSTER AND A GLAM SLAM ALL AT THE SAME TIME! HOW UNREAL IS THAT?"
"Very unreal! I believe this is the first time we have ever seen the Implant Buster and the Glam Slam put together to form one of the most powerful double team moves in the history of this sport! If I were to name it, I would call it the 'Glam Buster!'"
"Again, folks, allow me to recap what's happened so far! Ever since Reiko Hinomoto has been eliminated, Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong have been systematically destroying Sakura Hagiwara! Instead of eliminating her, they have been entertaining the crowd with a showcase of their most powerful moves on Sakura!"
"That's right! Here's the list of what they've done: 2 Fallaway Slams, 2 Delayed Vertical Suplexes with different theatrics, 10 Backbreakers and 10 Gutbusters alternatingly, 2 Chokeslams, a Double Chokeslam, an Awesome Bomb, a Glam Slam, and a Glam Buster!"
"That's thirty moves in succession, partner! Sakura's not getting up after that! There's no way she can... HEY! WAIT A MINUTE! BETH PHOENIX!"
Awesome Kong was so busy soaking in the crowd reaction, she had no idea that the Glamazon was positioned behind her, ready to make her move. This showcase has gone on long enough and Beth Phoenix has decided that now would be a good time to spring her trap. Plus, with her 'partner' distracted with the fans screaming and chanting her name, she wouldn't see the double-cross coming, until it's too late. She did the same thing to Tara almost an hour ago, so this shouldn't be any different.
When the African American wrestler stood at in front of the ring ropes, Beth Phoenix charged in and grabbed Awesome Kong by the leg.
The Glamazon pushed with all of her might, trying to lift the thirtieth entrant over the top rope.
Out of instincts, the large woman grabbed on to the top rope and hung on like her life depended on it.
Sure enough, she had reacted just in time. With leverage on her side, Beth Phoenix was not able to throw Awesome Kong out of the ring.
The thirtieth entrant retaliated by kicking the Glamazon in the chest, which made her stumbled backwards to the center of the ring.
By the time the sixth entrant recovered, her former partner was already back in the squared circle.
The former WWE Dive knew that she had angered the African American wrestler. And from the look on her face, Awesome Kong was not happy with what Beth Phoenix tried to pull off.
"Uh-oh! You shouldn't have done that, Beth Phoenix! Now, you're really going to get it!"
"The Glamazon tried to eliminate Awesome Kong, the same way she tried to do with Tara a back near the beginning of the Ryona Rumble match! But this time, she bit off a little more than she could chew! I guess it's safe to say that this alliance is over!"
"Don't forget that it is every woman for herself! This match won't end, until there's only one standing in the middle of the ring!"
"That's true! And it looks like that we're going to get the dream matchup we've been waiting for! Awesome Kong vs. Beth Phoenix! Here we go! And may the best woman win!"
Realizing that there's no way for her to get the thirtieth entrant back on her side, Beth Phoenix shrugged and decided to continue the match and eliminate the African American wrestler by using the old fashion way.
Awesome Kong had no intention to go easy on the former WWE Diva. By eliminating the Glamazon, she can prove to everyone in the world that she is the greatest female wrestler of all time.
Both women met in the center of the ring.
The two of them exchanged attacks. The Glamazon hit the large woman with hard forearms the sternum.
Awesome Kong counters with kicks the blonde's midsection.
It started off as a standoff. However, Beth Phoenix eventually got the edge.
She unleashed flurry of elbow strikes to the African American woman's temple, forcing her opponent backwards.
The fans of the three-time Women's Champion cheered with all of their might. They want nothing more than for the Glamazon to defeat TNA's best female wrestler.
The large woman stumbled back into the ropes.
This gave the Glamazon an opportunity to finish off her opponent.
But when Beth Phoenix reached the ropes, Awesome Kong started to make her comeback. She blocked the blonde's elbow strike.
She wrapped her hands around her opponent's head and unleashed huge headbutt.
Skulls collided with one another, with the Glamazon taking the worst of it.
Seizing the opportunity, the thirtieth entrant unleashed another devastating headbutt to her former partner.
The blonde stumbled back to the center of the ring.
Again, Awesome Kong showed Beth Phoenix no mercy.
She delivered another vicious headbutt to her opponent.
Her attacks stunned the Glamazon
Not only that, it made Beth Phoenix stumble back against the ropes.
Awesome Kong had her former partner right where she wanted her.
She bounced off of the ropes and dashed toward her opponent to pick up some momentum.
She extended her arm out, ready to clothesline the former WWE Diva out of the ring.
But once she was in range, Beth Phoenix raised her right leg up and delivered a Big Boot to Awesome Kong's face.
The African American wrestler rubbed her jaw, checking to see if she had any teeth knocked out.
This made the large woman turn her back toward her former partner.
The Glamazon charged toward the thirtieth entrant and dove for her legs.
Awesome Kong fell down on one knee.
Next, Beth Phoenix got behind the thirtieth entrant.
She wrapped her arms around her opponent's neck and put the two hundred plus pound woman in a sleeper hold.
Awesome Kong tried remove the Glamazon off of her.
But the former WWE Diva hopped on the large wrestler's back and wrapped her legs around her body for a better grip.
Realizing that she doesn't have much options, Awesome Kong ran backwards toward the corner.
She collided against one of the turnbuckle, crushing Beth Phoenix at the same time.
That was enough to get the Glamazon to break the hold and fall off of her body.
The thirtieth entrant collapsed in the middle of the ring, trying to catch her breath.
All three entrants laid in the ring, either exhausted or too hurt to stand up.
But even with a temporary stop in the action, the sellout crowd of over fifty thousand showed their appreciation by cheering for the remaining entrants.
"What a match! This is incredible! Unbelievable! I got goosebumps already!"
"You got three of the greatest athletes, the strongest fighters giving it their all to win the Ryona Rumble! Sakura Hagiwara, Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong are laying it all on the line, just to be crowned the champion!"
Not surprisingly, the sixth and thirtieth entrant were back on to a vertical base, ready to resume their fight.
As for Sakura Hagiwara, she continued to lay motionlessly in the middle of the ring. After taking all of those powerful throws from Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong, no one knows when her consciousness will return again.
The Glamazon and the African American met each other again in the middle of the ring, again locked in another collar-and-elbow tie up.
The test of strength only lasted for a few moments.
Awesome Kong gave her opponent a knee to the gut to force the three time WWE Women's Champion on her knees.
The large wrestler followed up with a clubbing blow to the Glamazon's back.
Next, Awesome Kong got Beth Phoenix to a standing position and draped one of her opponent's arms over the back of her neck.
She lifted her opponent off of the ground.
The African American wrestler fell backwards, completing the vertical suplex.
Not only she did a decent amount of damage to the blonde, but she also made her moan in pain.
But before Beth Phoenix could figure out what's going on, Awesome Kong kicked her legs and rolled over her opponent to go for a second suplex.
Again, she effortlessly lifted the sixth entrant up.
And again she slammed her opponent on her back.
That move did more damage to the blonde, making her grimace in pain.
The thirtieth entrant rotated her body and rolled her opponent over.
Awesome Kong was about to deliver a third suplex.
However, the Glamazon found some life and responded with a couple of elbows to Awesome Kong's exposed temple.
This made the African American wrestler loosen up her hold on the former WWE Diva.
Beth Phoenix countered with hard front kicks to her opponent's stomach.
This made Awesome Kong gasp for air and causing her to bend over.
Then, Beth Phoenix draped one of her opponent's arm over her shoulder and pointed to the crowd, wordlessly commanding them to get excited.
"YEEAAAHHHH!" ||| "DO IT! DO IT!" ||| "SUPLEX HER ASS!"
"She's not going to do this! Beth Phoenix can't do this!"
"Is she attempting what I think she's attempting?"
"There's no way she can suplex Awesome Kong! Is she kidding me? There hasn't been a single wrestler that has ever suplexed Awesome Kong! She weighs over two hundred pounds! How in the world can she..."
But the commentators were quickly proven wrong. Beth Phoenix grabbed the edge of Awesome Kong's outfit and used every ounce of energy within her body to lift the thirtieth entrant off of the ground.
The whole arena exploded when the Glamazon fell backwards and, for the first time in her career, successfully delivered vertical suplex to the two hundred plus pound woman.
Awesome Kong groaned in agony when her back hit the canvas.
Figuring that she could do it again, the Glamazon kicked her feet and rolled over to get herself and her opponent back to a vertical base.
Once again, the blonde hoisted the thirtieth entrant off of her feet.
Beth Phoenix successfully delivered another suplex to Awesome Kong.
The African American woman grunted when her back hit the mat.
And just like last time, the Glamazon rolled herself over.
She managed to get her opponent back to a vertical base. Again, Beth Phoenix tried to lift the large wrestler off of the canvas.
But this time, Awesome Kong hooked one of her legs around the Glamazon's so that she wouldn't be able to execute the suplex. With leverage on her side, the thirtieth entrant was able to keep herself on the ground.
From there, Awesome Kong got into the same position as Beth Phoenix and duel had begun.
The African American tried to deliver another vertical suplex to her opponent.
But when Awesome Kong had her opponent in the air, the former WWE Diva kicked her legs about, which shifted the balance against the thirtieth entrant.
This made the large wrestler drop the sixth entrant back to her feet.
And then, Beth Phoenix tried her luck and attempted to suplex Awesome Kong. Surprisingly, she was able to get her opponent off the mat.
But the African American woman's weight was too much for her.
This forced Beth Phoenix put the large wrestler back on the ground.
Awesome Kong broke the hold and grabbed the Glamazon's throat with both of her hands.
The large wrestler applied as much pressure as she could, choking out her opponent.
Beth Phoenix fell to one knee as her opponent cut off her oxygen supply. She tried to throw some punches to the thirtieth entrant. Unfortunately, her attacks did not have enough power in them to do any damage.
The large wrestler lifted her opponent off of the ground, seemingly going for a two-handed choke bomb.
But from the expression on her face, Awesome Kong was through playing with games.
It is time to get rid of this woman and be one step closer to win the Ryona Rumble.
So, the thirtieth entrant walked toward an unoccupied turnbuckle.
She placed the nearly conscious opponent on top.
Beth Phoenix remained seated on the corner, in danger of being thrown out of the ring.
Awesome Kong took a few steps backwards, ready to eliminate the Glamazon.
The thirtieth entrant gain a burst of speed and rushed toward the sitting Beth Phoenix.
Out of instincts, the sixth entrant lifted her leg up.
This made Awesome Kong run into the former WWE Diva's boot.
The large wrestler stumbled to the middle of the ring.
Finally, Beth Phoenix stood on top of the turnbuckle.
She jumped off and planted her feet into her opponent's chest.
This sent Awesome Kong tumbling toward the edge of the ring.
She landed hard on her back.
Beth Phoenix quickly got back to a standing position.
She waited for the large wrestler to stand and turn around.
The Glamazon then ran toward her opponent.
She extended her arm in attempt to clothesline Awesome Kong over the top rope and out of the ring.
The good news is that she was able to hit her opponent in the chest.
Unfortunately, her attack wasn't strong enough to send the thirtieth entrant out of the ring.
This meant that the Glamazon has to try another tactic.
The three-time WWE Women's Champion brought her opponent out of the ropes.
Next, she placed the large wrestler's near arm over the back of her neck.
The crowd thought that the Glamazon was going for another vertical suplex, which would be crazy. However, it turns out that the audience was only half right. Beth Phoenix against lifted her opponent off of the ground.
But instead falling backwards, the former WWE Diva tossed Awesome Kong over the top rope.
The large wrestler's feet landed on the apron.
"Oh my! Could this be it? Are we about to see another elimination?"
"Awesome Kong is in trouble! That's right, folks! I never thought those words would come out of my mouth! But she's hanging on the apron! If she falls off, then Awesome Kong would be eliminated!"
"Can Beth Phoenix do it? Can she somehow get Awesome Kong, who is arguably the greatest female wrestlers of all time, out of the Ryona Rumble? We're about to find out!"
With Awesome Kong on the apron, Beth Phoenix tried many ways to get that final push to eliminate her opponent.
She grabbed her opponent by the head and dropped to her knees, hanging the thirtieth entrant's throat on the ropes.
But Awesome Kong was able to save herself by hanging one of her arms around the top rope.
Beth Phoenix delivered a couple of hard elbow shots to her opponent.
Again, the Glamazon almost knocked the thirtieth entrant out of the ring.
Next, she hit Awesome Kong with a dropkick to the chest.
Again, the large wrestler held on.
Beth Phoenix quickly got back to a vertical base.
She immediately noticed that her opponent was still hanging on the apron.
People can tell that the Glamazon was getting frustrated. She was pulling out hair out in anger, as well as kicking the bottom ropes. She's so close to winning this competition.
All she has to do is get this large woman off of the apron. But she's tried everything, from throws to strikes. And yet, Awesome Kong is still hanging on. She was now having trouble figuring out how she's going to get that one last push.
Finally, Beth Phoenix approached her former partner.
She brought her opponent back to her feet and draped her arm over the back of her neck, going for a front suplex off of the apron. The Glamazon's objective is to get Awesome Kong's feet off of the apron.
If she's able to do that, then all she needed to do was release the hold to get her the large wrestler off of the apron and onto the arena floor. And even if she doesn't do that, it'll at least get her off balance so that she can come in for the kill.
But it turns out that Beth Phoenix had fallen into Awesome Kong's trap.
The thirtieth entrant was waiting for her opponent to get in position for a front suplex. Once when the Glamazon had one arm around the back of her neck, that's when she made her move.
Awesome Kong grabbed a hold of her opponent's tights and lifted her off of the ground.
The crowd watched as the large wrestler hoisted the former WWE Diva over the top rope, while still standing on to the apron.
The thirtieth entrant showcased her superior strength to the crowd, letting everyone in the arena know who is the strongest wrestler.
Finally, Awesome Kong rotated her body and released her opponent outside of the ring.
Beth Phoenix fell a long way toward the arena floor.
Finally, the Glamazon crashed hard on the ground.
The suplex to the outside was one of the most impacting ad devastating moves the people has seen.
"OH MY GOD! YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! BETH PHOENIX HAS BEEN ELIMINATED BY AWESOME KONG! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT? THE GLAMAZON IS GONE!"
"What a counter by Awesome Kong! That's got to be one of the biggest suplexes of her career!"
"She had Beth Phoenix set up! She was waiting for her opponent to get in position, to sucker her into going for another front suplex to the outside! And when she had Beth Phoenix right where she wanted her, 'BAM!' Just like that, Beth Phoenix is gone!"
"Talk about making a statement! We have been wondering which of those them is the best! And after some time, we finally have our answer! Awesome Kong won today, folks! She not only proved that she's better than Beth Phoenix, but that she's also the most dominant female wrestler of all time!"
"You're absolutely right, Ray! We are now down to the last two competitors: Awesome Kong and..."
"HUH? WAIT A MINUTE! GET THE CAMERA BACK IN THE RING! DAMMIT GET IN THE CAMERA BACK IN THE RING! LOOK AT THIS!"
"UH-OH! SAKURA HAGIWARA! WHAT IS SHE..."
Little did Awesome Kong know that the #1 entrant was crawling toward the edge of the ring where the large wrestler.
The agony in her body was so immense and so painful, poor teenage idol wasn't sure if she could continue anymore.
However, the beaten and battered Sakura Hagiwara fought through the pain and somehow managed to get into a squat. The muscles in her body felt like they were on fire when she was in this position.
But the Japanese wrestler endured as best as she could.
She waited patiently for her opponent to get in position.
Suplexing Beth Phoenix to the outside nearly took a lot out of the thirtieth entrant. However, regardless of the toll on her body, the large wrestler couldn't help but smile.
She had just eliminated the biggest threat in the ring, as of now. With that, there is only one more person left to eliminate. Once when she throws Sakura Hagiwara out of the ring, she will be crowned the winner of the Ryona Rumble.
Unfortunately for Awesome Kong, that never happened.
By the time the thirtieth entrant stood back up on the apron, the Japanese wrestler has made, what many would call, the biggest move of her young wrestling career.
Hagiwara performed a small backflip with her feet hitting the opponent's jaws one shortly after the other.
Unfortunately, Sakura didn't get enough on her rotation.
Instead of a smooth touchdown on her feet, her body slammed on to the canvas.
As a result, this further damaged her already injured ribs.
But nothing could compare to what happened next.
Her double kicks sent the large wrestler flying off of the apron.
Awesome Kong landed back first across the supine Beth Phoenix's stomach.
Both wrestlers laid on the arena floor. The pain in their bodies was immense. But that was nothing compared to the humiliation they felt being so close to winning the match and coming up short.
The referees on the outside hustled as fast as they could to the spot where a couple of bodies were.
The officials saw that Beth Phoenix and Awesome Kong had both went over the top rope and had both of their feet on the arena floor.
They immediately called for the bell to signal the end of the match.
*DING, DING, DING*
*Insert Song: Sakura Victory*
And at that point, the world record for the loudest crowd roar at a sports stadium was shattered. Approximately 150 dbA was achieved right when Awesome Kong had hit the floor and the referee called for the bell. It was pandemonium all over the arena. Over ninety thousand fans were jumping up and down and screaming their vocal cords off. Food and beer were flying all over the place because they were so excited. Without a doubt, the Ryona Rumble was the match of the year.
The sound of the crowd going crazy captured Sakura Hagiwara's attention. She looked around the arena. Never before had she seen or felt such energy in one place. As a member of Sweet Diva, she's used to receiving thunderous ovations. Even when she wrestled with the Berserk Wrestlers, the cheering of the crowd almost made her deaf.
However, this was by far the loudest ovation she had ever received. Thousands were screaming and chanting her name. And the best part is that all of their cheers were directed towards her, no one else.
"OH MY GOD! THAT'S IT! IT'S OVER! I DON'T BELIEVE IT! SHE DID IT! SHE DID IT!"
The announcer's voice was almost drowned out by the roar of the crowd. But she managed to make the announcement to celebrate the moment.
"HERE IS YOUR WINNER OF THE RYONA RUMBLE... SAKURAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAGIWARAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" She dropped the mic to cover his ears as the decibel levels soared.
A huge smile appeared on the young woman's face. She couldn't believe that she had pulled off, what many have considered, the biggest upset in all of sports entertainment. Sakura Hagiwara realized that she had just won the biggest match of her entire life.
She had endured over an hour of punishment, torture and humiliation. And in the end, she scored the final elimination to become the last one standing. Despite the unimaginable agony surging throughout her ribs and back, the sweet feeling of victory and the support of her fans took away most of the pain.
"SAKURA HAS DONE IT, FOLKS! SAKURA HAGIWARA HAS WON THE RYONA RUMBLE! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! WHAT A SHOCKER!"
"THERE'S JUST NO WAY THAT HAPPENED! OH MAN! AL, I... WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE WHAT WE 'RE WITNESSING!"
"WHAT A MATCH! I CANNOT BELIEVE IT! THIS IS, NO DOUBT IN MY MIND, THE BEST MATCH OF THE YEAR... HELL, OF ALL TIME!"
The beaten, yet still gorgeous Sakura Hagiwara collapsed on her butt, trying to drink in the emotion and the energy flowing throughout the arena. The people can tell that the seventeen year old girl was exhausted and incredibly sore, after being in the ring for over sixty minutes. Not a single person in the crowd could imagine what the teenage idol had been through, being slammed, tortured and humiliated throughout the whole match. But it's all over now. All of the pain Sakura had endured was all worth it, just to enjoy this wonderful, long-lasting moment.
An official stepped into the ring to present the belt to the winner of the Ryona Rumble. The gold plating in the center of the championship had a crown with diamonds embedded along the base. Below the crown is a small, golden image of the world. It had the letters 'RR' etched into it. Stuck on to the world's finest silk for the belt, this prestige of this title is definitely worthy for the one rightfully called the 'Champion'.
Sakura was at a loss for words when she held the gold for the first time. She nearly burst into tears on the spot. The young woman brought the belt to her face to give it a kiss, closing her eyes shut, not wanting to wake up from this dream. This will go down as the biggest win of her life.
This victory of hers far surpassed her first win against Rio Kazama when she just a rookie. She had outlasted twenty-nine other competitors to win this match. Sakura's not forgetting this moment anytime soon.
The referee then offered to the injured young woman up to her feet. However, Sakura politely declined, deciding that she wanted to get up on her own power. It took some time, since her body took a lot of abuse during the match. But the feeling of victory and loud cheers from her beloved fans were all she needed to regain her strength. The support from the sellout crowd gave her energy and happiness.
With one hand holding the belt, Sakura raised her high in the air, while clutching her injured midsection and leaning against the ropes.
Thousands of cameras from every conceivable direction went off as the Japanese wrestler showed the whole world that she won the brutal match. Her smile alone was even brighter than the flashing lights going on throughout the arena. Her flawless body was illuminated by the arena lights reflecting off the beads of sweat on her skin. Sakura's loose dark hairs clung to her flesh and her white bikini. She might not have been in perfect condition, but there was no question in anyone's mind that she was the greatest wrestler on the planet.
"I can't believe! This is just not possible! There's no wat that Sakura Hagiwara had won!"
"It is, partner! We are all witnesses! Sakura Hagiwara went to hell, and has survived!"
"How crazy is this? Get this, folks! Sakura Hagiwara had only recorded 'one' elimination in this whole match! One!"
"Indeed, Ray! She may have only one elimination on record, but that elimination was the most important one of the match! And Sakura has done it!"
"Unbelievable! Take pictures! Record videos! We are witnessing history in the making!"
"What a fighter! What a competitor! Sakura Hagiwara is known for having heart! And she showed a lot of heart tonight!"
The Japanese wrestler then hobbled toward one of the corners. She did her best to climb to the second rope so that everyone could see her.
The flashing lights of the cameras going off almost blinded the seventeen year old girl. However, she has lived her whole life in stages as big and bright as this one. Whether she's dancing with her fellow idols or performing tough matches in the ring, Sakura Hagiwara loves it when all of the attention is on her.
Finally, the winner of the Ryona Rumble raised her championship belt toward the sky.
Tons of white fireworks sparkled from the rafters, on the stage and around the ring as well. Not only that, tons of confetti fell from the ceiling. At this point in time, Sakura Hagiwara has not looked more beautiful in her entire life. The shower of flashing cameras, combined with the thunderous cheering from the crowd made the teenage wrestler the most attractive young woman in all of the world. Despite the bruises and scratches all throughout her body, she still looked lovely nonetheless.
"She has done the impossible! Sakura Hagiwara overcame the odds, endured everything thrown at her, and still manages to find a way to win!"
"I had my doubts before, Al! We said it before that she came into the match at #1! The numbers weren't in her favor! And it got worse with each new entrant! Sakura has been on the receiving end of over a hundred moves throughout the match! All this time, I thought she was going to be the next one to be thrown out! But she hung in there until the very end! Give Sakura credit!"
"Many people will say that Sakura has done nothing to deserve this win! They'll argue that all she did was get beat down, while the other competitors eliminated each other; that the other twenty-nine competitors only wanted to hurt and humiliate Sakura instead of eliminating her! And you know what? To hell with that! She has been through hell to win this match! She deserves the moment! She deserves the win! She deserves the belt! Congratulations Sakura Hagiwara!"
Holding her title high was a statement to everyone that she is the Greatest Champion of the World. It's only a matter of time before someone knocks her off of the top of the mountain, but the seventeen year old didn't care. She has worked very hard, trained day and night and has endured the brutalist of punishment and the most painful humiliations to be in the spot where she is right now.
"AND THERE SHE IS, FOLKS! YOUR WINNER OF THE RYONA RUMBLE: SAKURA HAGIWARA!"
At long last, Ryona Rumble has ended and what ride it was! I for one loved every bit of this story and felt truly happy for young Sakura at the end. She really did go through hell and came out a winner and I commend her for it. Thank you CodeRed for this, you spent over a year of hard work and writing and I would say it all paid off in the end to make it one of if not the best pieces of ryona fiction out there. I look forward to anything else you have planned for the future.
Well done Code Red not only did you pull off one of the biggest upsets in ficional sports history but you kept the action hot and the excitment level high and made Sakura's SWEET victory beileveable.
Well done I was right in saying that your story was the BEST Ryona story I have read so far given the weel paced and detailed action as well as the depth of personalty for each of the fighters as well as a good blance of humor and action.
I look forward to reading your next story, needless to say you have set a high standrd for yourself as well as others as well as being and insperation not only to myself but hopeful others who have writen a Ryo story or those considering writing a Ryo story.
I have to agree with the others. This is, by fa, the BEST Ryona story of all time, definitely on this site. I'm talking in terms of quantity and quality. You provided a ton of ryona opportunities for every character, especially for poor Sakura Hagiwara. But that's not all. You gave us well-detailed scenes of each character getting thrashed. Of course, it seemed like Sakura was getting the most treatment. I was wondering why. But now I know. All of this was setting up to give her the victory. And a well-deserve victory it was for Sakura.
With that being said, I absolutely love this chapter. With only three women remaining, all of the ryona opportunities in first 2/3s of the story were all going to Sakura. Let's review what Beth and Kong did to her. A pair of belly devastation, 2 fallaway slams, 2 delayed vertical suplexes, 10 backbreakers and gutbusters, 3 chokeslams, their finishers and a combo of their finishers. God, they're so focused on destroying her, they didn't care if they ended her career or her life. So cruel, yet so wonderful.
But the ending truly was the best. Beth and Kong fought each other and wore each other down. Kong finally got the upper hand and eliminated Beth. But after doing so, an injured and beaten Sakura delivered her own finisher to get the ONLY elimination of the match. That was tremendous. And the celebration scene was spectacular. You really captured the emotions of the crowd and the winner. It's a moment that Sakura Hagiwara will remember for the rest of her life. The biggest win of her career so far. Congratulations Sakura.
I like the table you put at the end to give us all a clear visual of the overall summary of the whole match. Now when I say that, two things stuck me.
1. Sakura Hagiwara has a total of 1 elimination, which was Awesome Kong. That's it? Wow, her only elimination she got happened to be the one that counts the most.
2. On the very right of the table, it says that Sakura has been in the match for a total of one hour, thirty minutes and seven seconds. She's been in the match for that long? God dammit.
Hooray! Sakura has won the whole match! Man, she had to earn it. Everyone was beating the crap out of her and throwing her all over the ring like a broken rag doll. But despite all that, especially what Kong and Beth Phoenix did, she got the last elimination and emerge as the undisputed champion! That one elimination led to what many will call the upset of the century and the match of the millennium. Congratulations to Sakura for a hard fought win. Oh and a huge thanks to Sakura for taking all that punishment for us ryona fans. :D

1. That's right. I wasn't even aware of that until I checked the table. Sakura Hagiwara's only elimination came at the very end of the match. Shocker.
2. She was in the match for over 90 minutes huh? Oh man. I can't remember a wrestler who's been in a match over 90 minutes long.

1. Awesome Kong is the only woman she eliminated from the match and it came at the very end. Awesome Kong, the heaviest and favorite to win the match got eliminated by Sakrua Hagiwara, the youngest and the one with the lowest odds to win... WTF?
2. Not just that. 90 minutes of pain, torture and humiliation. Damn. Poor Sakura. There's no way she should be standing or be alive after that match.

1. You sound surprised CaptainDandruff. This is a battle royal. It doesn't matter how many competitors you eliminate. The only thing that matters is getting the final elimination. And that's what precisely what Sakura did.
2. That's true. 90 minutes of getting suplexed and thrown around all over the ring would send someone to the hospital. But as CodeRed described, the thrill of winning took away most of the pain Sakura is feeling.

1. Hmm, good point. The last elimination is the most important. And Sakura did get it. One cannot argue how she did it.
2. That makes sense. When one wins the championship, all of that hard work and sacrifice on their body is all worth it.

1. Absolutely. A win is a win, regardless. Sakura is the one with the gold around her waist. She is the one being showered with confetti.
2. Still, Sakura's going to need to get herself checked out. Even though she won, it's possible that she has suffered a ton of injuries to do so.
You're right. One does not walk away from a 90 minute match without having some kind of injury. I can't imagine how hurt Sakura is, being slammed and stretched for that long.

By almost all of the competitors. Almost everyone one that entered the Ryona Rumble had an opportunity to do some damage to poor Sakura, whether it's by a strike, a throw or a submission hold.

You know something? I did remember saying that. Thanks for reminding me, CaptainDandruff. I'll reread the story and make a list of all of the moves done to Sakura, starting at the first chapter. This is going to involve a lot of work, but it'll be fun along the way. Hopefully I'll come up with the correct number. I'll ask Code Red for confirmation if I'm right.
Yes indeed. I just finished the first two chapters last night. I didn't continue today, but I plan to pick off where I left off tomorrow. And as of chapter 2, I have recorded a total of four moves done to Sakura. Good start so far.
That's what I call dedication kirakuya1101. Good luck in finding all of the moves on Sakura. But hey. Four moves in the first two minutes of the match. Now I'm even more interested to see the final number of throws done to poor Sakura.
Same here. I'm also curious how many moves were done to Sakura throughout the whole match. I wasn't keeping track when I was reading the story, but I damn know for sure that it's going to be a high, unreal number.

I won't be surprised if the number kirakuya1101 gets is over 100. But if the number gets over 200, I'm going to mark out like crazy. Can you imagine that? Taking 200+ moves in one match? Well that's what Sakura Hagiwara did throughout the whole story. Poor girl. Now that I think about it, I feel sorry for her going through so much pain. But what the hell? I really enjoyed it nevertheless. Her pain = our pleasure.
