Angela by brooksie brooksie@pacificcoast.net Angela dominates Bill in their second match. Bill felt his level of excitement rise as he passed the city limits sign. His first match with Angela had turned out to be a wonderful surprise. He'd met her through his friend Betty, with whom he'd wrestled many times. Betty was a former gymnast and had been athletically inclined all her life. She was an outreach worker in the Social Services Department, working mainly with street youth. Bill had done some volunteering for the agency and he and Betty had become friends. He'd always admired her athletic look and strong, muscular legs. One day, while having coffee at Bill's, they got into a discussion of which sports they liked. Bill mentioned wrestling and was surprised to hear Betty say she'd done some in high school and had really liked it. He asked if she knew that there were dozens, maybe hundreds of companies making wrestling videos showing both female matches and mixed ones. Betty did not know this and sounded intrigued. So far, so good, thought Bill and asked if she'd like to see one. She said sure, so he slid in a tape from a company called Silver Sun Productions featuring a mixed match between two wrestlers named Michelle and Zack. It took place in a ring, with a referee. It was mostly pins and a few submissions. Although Zack managed to pin Michelle a couple of times, she was the overwhelming winner. At the end of the contest Zack looked totally spent while Michelle strutted proudly around the ring, arms flexed. Hitting the rewind button, Bill looked over at Betty. She smiled and commented "That was very interesting. She's a good wrestler." "Uh huh." said Bill. He purposely stayed silent, letting Betty lead the conversation. "That looked pretty real, it didn't seem like he was faking." she continued. "Yeah," Bill agreed "he seemed to be tryind his best." More silence. "How does that make you feel, to see a woman beat a man in something as physical as wrestling?" she asked. "I take it you're not embarassed, otherwise you wouldn't have shown me the tape." "No, it doesn't embarass me. I admire her strength and skill. Personally, I'd have no problem with a woman defeating me in a wrestling contest," Bill responded. After pausing for effect he added "If she could, that is." "I see," mused Betty. "So is that a challenge?" "What do you mean?' he asked coyly. "I mean, you obviously had an ulterior motive in showing me this tape. You wanted to see how I'd react, right?" She smiled smugly. Bill knew he'd been busted, but he really didn't care. Betty seemed to be playing right along so he confessed. "Betty, I would love to try wrestling with a woman as muscular and athletic as you." "Ok Bill, you're on. But be ready to have your ass whipped "cause I'm going to take your down, just like Michelle did to Zack," she laughed. They agreed to wrestle each other the following evening and eagerly set about discussing the rules and restrictions. Betty turned out to be very adept, strong and possessed of an instinctive sense of how to use weight and leverage. Her short, compact build was much better suited for grappling than Bill's tall, lanky one. She seemed to be able to capture one of his limbs easily and once she had a hold locked on, he was rarely able to escape it. She used her speed and agility to win the vast majority of the matches she and Bill had over the next few months. Because Betty had a steady boyfriend, the wrestling matches were their little secret. Neither of them mentioned it to anyone. Wrestling was something they both enjoyed and it might have gone on for a long time had it not ended as suddenly as it had had begun. Betty was involved in a serious car accident that left her with an injured neck. At first, it was thought to be a severe case of whiplash but physical therapy, massage, accupunture nor any other form of treatment proved effective. In fact, as time went along her condition worsened, with pain extending down the right side of her back and throughout her right arm as far as her fingertips. A catscan was inconclusive but an MRI finally revealed a badly damaged disc in her cervical spine. The disc had tried to regenerate, resulting in nerve damage caused by calcuium deposits that formed on it. A date was set for an operation to remove the damaged disc. Between the time of the accident and the operation, nearly four months had passed. Betty was facing another several months of convalesence and wasn't sure if she'd ever be able to wrestle again, as it does tend to take a toll on the neck. She and Bill regretfully concluded that secret aspect of their friendship was likely over. Soon after that, Bill took a new job in another city. He and Betty spoke on the phone but those calls became less and less frequent and when Bill got home one day to find a message on his machine from Betty, he realized it had been months since they'd talked. The message said she was back at her old job and to call her at work. She was very explicit not to call her at home. He returned the call the next day and discovered why. Betty's boyfriend Dan had moved in with her and she didn't want him to overhear the conversation. "Why not?" asked Bill. He'd often spoke with Betty while Dan was in the room. "Because it's about wrestling." she explained. "You want to wrestle again?" asked Bill, surprised. "No." she said sadly. "I mean, I'd love to but my neck's too fragile. But there is someone I know who's really interested." Betty said she'd been working with a girl named Angela, who'd been living on the street. She'd had lots of problems at home, school, with the police and authority in general. Betty had been working with her and helped her get into social housing, back into a program to finish high school and, most importantly, off drugs. Angela had gotten a subsidized membership at the "Y" and had really taken to weight training, boxing and martial arts classes. "She's a smart kid and has a lot of potential. I told her about the wrestling matches we used to have and she got really excited. She wanted to know if you were still into it and I said I'd ask. You must miss it, Bill. I know I do." he admitted he did. Betty asked it he'd like to come over for a visit and she could set up a match with Angela. "Dan is out of town, not this weekend but next. We could do it here. Can you make it then?" Bill readily agreed to make the five-hour round trip and he hadn't been disappointed. Angela was a tall redhead with wide shoulders and very strong legs. She weighed about 140, only 35 lbs. lighter than Bill and they both stood 5' 10". Betty had shown her some holds and taught what she knew about wrestling. Angela was tentative at first, feeling Bill out, and he won the first fall with a cradle pin. The second fall was a lot longer and harder fought. Bill thought he had her with a bodyscissors/half nelson combination but the tough street kid in her refused to give up and she eventually fought her way out. Finally, she got Bill in a headlock and, with Betty calling out instructions, she bridged with her legs and used her weight to hold him down. The struggle to free himself eventually wore him down and Angela pinned his shoulders to even the match. The victory, which they all knew had been won, not given, had a powerfully energizing effect on Angela and she came on even stronger as the locked up to begin the third fall. As the two combatants struggled on their feet, she managed to trip him onto his back. Without a moment's hestiation she dropped on him and twined her long legs around his in a grapevine hold. It turned out to be unbreakable. Bill had been in this hold before but no one had ever made it hurt the way Angela did. His legs were completely immobilized and she just kept cranking up the pressure on his knees and ankles. Without even pinning his arms she forced a submission in a matter of seconds. Angela released him and lept up, elated. Betty gave her a big hug and complemented her on the "grapevine" and added, "With those long legs, that's going to be a killer hold for you. I've never seen Bill give up so fast." Bill got to his feet on still-shaky legs and congratulated Angela on her victory. "Anytime you want to try again, you just let me know." she laughed, flexing her arm. He had agreed to take them out to dinner if she won, so they all went out to eat. After the meal, Bill returned home, promising Angela a re-match in a couple of months. Now that encounter was about to take place. Betty's boyfriend was around, so that ruled out her place but Angela had a friend named Samantha who she'd told about her wrestling triumph and was fascinated. Sam was eager to see Angela take on Bill and had offered her place as a venue. Bill found the address and knocked on the door. A short, cute blonde girl opened it and invited him in. "Hi, I'm Sam." she said "You must be Bill." Sam's apartment wasn't huge but all the furniture except for a large couch had been cleared from the living room and two futon mattresses placed on the floor. Betty was there already and Angela was set to arrive shortly. Bill asked Betty about her neck and was glad to hear she was doing a lot better. "Who knows" she smiled "maybe I'll even be able to wrestle you again someday." Sam offered them soft drinks and snacks and spoke enthusiastically about the wrestling match. "I can't wait to see this" she said excitedly. "Angela's been practicing like crazy and she's been hitting the weights every da You should see her muscles." Then she laughed at her own words, adding "Well, I guess you will." They sat around chatting for another few minutes until they heard a knock on the door. Sam jumped up to let Angela in and she entered the room confidently, dressed in a loose-fitting track suit. Bill went into the bathroom to change into his wrestling shorts. When he came back, Angela was out of the track suit and stood facing him wearing a tight pair of spandex running shorts and a t-back workout top. She did look more muscular than before, especially her arms and shoulders and seemed fired with energy as she rubbed her hands together in inticipation. They had agreed to a best four out of seven falls this time as Angela had complained the last one was over with too quick. Sam was really getting into it as she made both wrestlers stand in opposite corners while she played ring announcer. "Ladies and gentlemen" she intoned, "this contest will be decided when one wrestler wins four falls, either by pin or submission. In this corner, weighing 175, the challenger, Big Bad Bill. And in this corner, weighing in at 145, the current mixed wrestling champion, Angela the Anhilator!" Bill noted she had gained five pounds since their first match, and it was clearly all muscle. Sam waved them forward and had them shake hands. then she stepped to the side and called out "Ready...Wrestle!" and scampered over to the couch to join Betty. Bill and Angela faced each other. He had their last bout on his mind and was very concerned with avoiding her killer grapevine. He bent low and, leading with his shoulder, got his arms around Angela's waist in a bearhug. He tried to use the grip to get her off balance and throw her to the floor but she had her legs flexed and planted and was holding fast. He tried again to upend her but she responded by leaning forward an putting a reverse headlock on him. She forced his head down and put all her weight on his back, causing them both to fall to their knees. Angela twisted him sideways in the headlock. He couldn't reach her locked fingers and had no way to break the hold. She got him turned on his side and, releasing the headlock slammed her upper body into his chest, forcing him over onto his back. She slid her legs down and locked in the grapevine before Bill even had time to think about avoiding it. In desperation he put his hands on her shoulders, hoping to push the tall rehead off him but she simply grabbed his wrists and after a brief struggle, pinned his arms. "I think his shoulders are down." said Sam and began to count. With a mighty effort, Bill managed to force his arms up and lift one of his shoulders enough so the count was stopped. "Don't want to be pinned, Billy-boy?" Angela smiled down at him. "How about I just make you submit." She stretched her legs out even further and Bill felt a strange sensation in his knees he knew he couldn't take much more of. "You want more?" she taunted, giving him another stretch. "Noooo, I give, I give!" he cried. Sam let out a whoop and ran over to give Angela a big congratulatory hug. Betty looked over at Bill who was slowly getting to his feet. "You ok, Bill?" she asked. He flexed his knees and rotated his ankles. They felt a little stiff but otherwise alright. They took a one minute rest and Bill used it to walk off the effects of her domineering hold. He returned to the mat and got ready to face Angela again. She was smiling broadly as she stepped forward. "That didn't take long. You better figure out how to stay away from my grapevines or this is going to be over quick." Thanks, thought Bill, now tell me something I don't know. They circled and made a couple of feints toward each other. Bill was extremely cautious, looking for an opportunity to get a secure grip on his adversary so he could control those legs once they were on the mat. She lunged at him trying for a headlock but he sidestepped and caught her wrist, wrenching her arm behind her. He quickly secured a half-nelson on her other arm. With the hammerlock/half nelson combination he was able to bend her forward and take her to the mat. Bill was working hard to control the fiercly struggling redhead. He still had her in the half nelson but the hammerlock was slipping. Both wrestlers were on their knees and Sam was yelling at her friend to keep fighting, "Come on Angela, you can get out of this." Bill wasn't able to apply any real pressure to the hammerlock so he let it go and concentrated on using the half nelson to try and turn his opponent on her back. Just as he went to take hold of one of her legs to flip her over, she shot her legs out in front of her in a sort of sit-out move. Bill tried to turn the half nelson into a full nelson, but Angela kept her arm tucked in tight against her chest. Planting her feet, she thrust up with her powerful legs and knocked Bill over onto his back. She kept moving backwards until she was lying on her back on his chest. Somehow whe was able to wrap her legs around his in a reverse grapevine. Bill's feet were off the floor and his legs were, again, hopelessly locked. With Angela's weight resting on his stomach, he was pinned underneath her. His arms were free and he used them to try and push her off to the side, but she easily clamped her hands around his wrists and slammed them to the mat. He was able to raise his shoulders up enough to keep from being pinned but he couldn't escape the hold he was in. Sam could see this and started shouting encouragement to Angela "Come on girl, you got him. Stretch his legs out. Make him quit." Angela spread Bill's legs wide apart and he began to groan. "Want to give, Bill?" she inquired. "Come on, you know you're beat. Give up!" She began flexing her legs, sending sharp jolts of pain down the back of his thighs. He was absloutely helpless and yelled out his submission. Angela untangled their legs and stood to receive another congratulatory hug from Sam, who raved "Wow, nice hold. That was great. Two zip already!" She had Angela flex and was delightedly feeling her muscles and pointing out how big and hard they were. Meanwhile a bewildered Bill lay on his back wondering what the hell happened. One second he was about to turn her on her back for the pin and the next she had him in an another inescapable grapevine, the likes of which he'd never seen before. He got to his feet wondering what he had to do to beat this girl. "That was some hold" Betty whispered, "I didn't show her that." "You mean she improvised it?" asked Bill, amazed. "I think so." she answered. He couldn't believe it! Could she be that creative? It seemed so and he was more circumspect than ever, as Angela bounced back onto the mat, ready for the next round. She was pumped up, bouncing up and down on her toes. "What's wrong, Bill?" she teased "Can't figure out how to beat me? That's because you can't. I'm too quick and strong. I've really gotten a lot better since last time, don't you think? Come on, let's wrestle!" She rushed forward and they locked hands. They were fairly equal as they jostled for control of each other's limbs but her advantage in leg strength soon showed as she moved him steadily backwards. Unbalancing him, she was able to twist Bill's body to the mat and quickly pounced on him. He squirmed onto his stomach and they grappled for several minutes. Neither gained a clear advantage but Angela was the aggressor. She attempted several holds while he was occupied just trying to escape her. She finally wound up perched on his chest again and tried to apply her indominitable grapevine but Bill kept moving his legs around and she wasn't able to lock the hold in. In a sudden, lightning fast move she spun right around so she was facing his feet and shot her legs forward, cinching them around his head in a reverse headscissors. Sam squealed with delight as Angela locked her ankles and squeezed. Bill's jaw ached and he began to feel woozy as she squeezed any fight he had left out of him. His hands were resting on the back of her thighs, vainly attempting to seperate them. They felt like steel. Bill moaned and instinctively slid his hands forward, cupping her rock-hard glutes. Bill was no longer fully conscious. He wasn't thinking about wrestling, only the the beautiful, hard, muscular female body holding him captive. Angela asked if he surrendered by he couldn't hear anything with he thighs around his ears. He lay still, breathing heavily, fantasizing about caressing, stroking and rubbing those powerful muscles... The next thing Bill knew, Betty was bending over him asking if he was alright. His eyes slowly came into focus and he saw her concerned-looking expression as she peered down at him. "Are you Ok, Bill? How do you feel?" "What happened?" he mumbled groggily. "She put you out, that's what happened." Sam giggled, "out like a light." "Do you want to quit, Bill?" Betty suggested, "She's ahead 3 - 0, maybe you should forfeit. I think you might be in over your head." Bill sat up, waiting for his head to clear. He didn't feel in any particular pain. Sam brought him a glass of water and proposed they take a break and he could see how he felt after a few minutes. She ran over to Angela, showering her with praise for her strength and wrestling ability. "You are just awesome. This is even better than I imagined." she gushed. They went into the kitchen as Betty helped Bill to his feet and sat him down on the couch. He looked over at her. "Her legs are unbelievable. I've never felt a scissors like that before. How long was I out?" "Only for a minute, but you were really out." Betty replied, "How are you feeling?" "A little fuzzy, but ok." he answered. "You want to stop?" "No, I can keep going." "You sure?" "Yeah." Betty went to tell Sam and Angela that Bill would continue. "Alright!" cried Sam, "Go get him, muscle girl." Angela went to the centre of the mat and waited. Bill got off the couch and slowly moved to face her again. He glanced over at Betty who gave him a look that seemed to say "oh well, just do your best." She obviously thought this would be the last fall. "Ready" called out Sam, "Wrestle!". Angela looked almost casual as she danced around Bill, feinting moves. Bill wasn't doing anything aggressive, just holding back protecting himself. She taunted him by standing still with her arms wide open. "Come on Bill, come get me." she invited. He threw his arms around her but she easily disengaged herself and put him in a headlock, bending him forward and flipping him to the mat. Bill landed on his back and rolled over onto his stomach. Angela fell on top of him and tried for a full nelson. She was unsuccessful but stayed on top by straddling his back. As he pushed up with his arms she reached under his right arm with her left and turned over so they were back to back. Then she similarly entrappped his left arm with her right. She completed the hold by snaring his legs in yet another version of the grapevine, this time with his knees against the mat and hers pointing up. It was completely unexpected and Sam clapped her hands in appreciation. "That's it gorgeous. Make him say uncle," she encouraged. Angela wasn't applying crushing force yet. She wanted to take her time. "How's it feel to know you can't beat me?" she gloated. "You want to give or should I make it hurt some more?" No response. She gave it more pressure. Give yet?" Still Bill said nothing. "Ok, you asked for it, Billy-boy" she growled, stretching Bill's legs as far apart as they would go. He screamed his submission but it wasn't enough for her. "Who's the champion? Who's stronger?" she demanded. "You! You win, you're the best Angela." Sam was showing a somewhat sadistic bent, telling her to make him beg and plead for mercy but Betty came to his defence. "He's had enough Angela. Let him go." "Yeah, ok." she agreed, unlocking her legs and letting his arms go. Sam ran at her, throwing herself into Angela's strong arms. She reached up and held onto her neck, kissing her deeply, fondling her arms and shoulders and rubbing her hands over her taut abdomen and down to her iron-hard thighs. Betty helped Bill to his feet and Sam pulled Angela over to where he stood, clasping them both by the wrists. "The winner, in four falls straight, the undisputed champion, the invincible Angela!" she sang out. She raised Angela's arm high in the air as Bill headed for the shower. When he emerged a few minutes later, Betty was sitting by herself on the couch. "Where's Sam and Angela?" he asked. Betty smiled and nodded towards the closed door of the bedroom. "Come on, let's go," she said, standing up, "I'll buy you dinner."
