Candi by Joniar F/f wrestling GOOD EVENING LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, AND WELCOME TO ANOTHER 2 OUT OF 3 FALL CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING BOUT. TONIGHT WE FEATURE THE CURRENT CHAMPION, MISTY BLUE SIMMES, AGAINST FORMER CHAMPION AND WRESTLING GREAT, CANDI DIVINE. THESE TWO HAVE MET BEFORE IN THE RING AND WERE BOTH COUNTED OUT AT RINGSIDE, BUT SINCE THEN MISTY'S CAREER HAS SOARED WHILE CANDI'S HAS SOURED. CANDI DIVINE IS A THREE TIME AWA CHAMPION AND HAS HELD NUMEROUS OTHER TITLES OVER HER LONG AND ILLUSTRIOUS CAREER. SHE IS A SKILLED AND POWERFUL WRESTLER WHO IN HER HEYDAY WAS ONE OF THE TOUGHEST WOMEN AROUND. NEVERTHELESS, THE LAST FEW YEARS HAVE BEEN A BIT TOUGH ON HER, AND SHE HAS BEEN A STEPPING STONE ON THE PATHS OF MANY AN UPCOMING WRESTLER. LOSSES TO TERRY POWER, REGGIE BENNET, HEIDI LEE MORGAN, AND BAMBI HAVE LOWERED HER IN RANK. RECENTLY, HOWEVER, SHE AVENGED TWO TOUGH LOSES TO BAMBI BY KNOCKING HER OUT AND PINNING HER IN THE CENTER OF THE RING. SHE LUCKED INTO THIS CHAMPIONSHIP THREE DAYS AGO WHEN TERRY POWER, THE ORIGINAL CONTENDER, WAS INJURED WHILE TRAINING. MISTY BLUE'S STAR HAS BEEN SHINING ON HER LATELY. SINCE BECOMING THE CHAMPION,SHE'S FOUGHT OFF ALL COMERS SURVIVING TWO ESPECIALLY BRUTAL MATCHES WITH THE MAGNIFICENT MIMI AND THE FABULOUS DIAMOND. ( SEE RELATED STORIES). LET'S GO TO THE RING ANNOUNCER. "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. THIS IS THE MAIN EVENT. THIS IS A 2 OUT OF 3 FALL BOUT WITH A ONE HOUR TIME LIMIT FOR THE LADIES CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE WORLD. NOW APPROACHING THE RING, FORMER THREE TIME AWA LADIES CHAMPION, CAN-DI DI-VIIINE!" THE CROWD CHEERS FOR CANDI. DESPITE HER UPS AND DOWNS, SHE HAS MANAGED TO REMAIN POPULAR WITH THE FANS, ALBEIT NOT ALWAYS DESERVEDLY SO. " AND NOW, FROM GLENS FALLS, NY, THE REIGNING LADIES CHAMPION OF THE WORLD, MISTY...BLUE...SIMMESSS!!!" THE CROWD GOES WILD. THEY LOVE MISTY BLUE AND JUSTIFIABLY SO. SHE'S BEEN A GREAT CONTENDER THROUGHOUT HER ILLUSTRIOUS CAREER, AND SHE HAS BEEN A CONSUMMATE CHAMPION. MISTY IS LOOKING SIMPLY FABULOUS TONIGHT. SHE IS IN THE BEST SHAPE OF HER LIFE. CANDI, ALTHOUGH PAST HER PRIME, IS ALSO LOOKING QUITE TOUGH TONIGHT. THE COMMON SENTIMENT ABOUT TONIGHT'S FIGHT IS THAT WHILE YOU CAN NEVER TAKE SOMEONE WITH CANDI DIVINE'S PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS LIGHTLY, SHE WILL NOT POSE A TREMENDOUS CHALLENGE TO MISTY. MOST ANALYSTS DO NOT EXPECT THIS FIGHT TO GO TO A THIRD FALL. ONE HAS TO GIVE CREDIT TO CANDI FOR TAKING THIS FIGHT ON SUCH SHORT NOTICE THOUGH. MANY OTHER FIGHTERS WERE NOT WILLING TO RISK THEIR CHANCE AT THE TITLE ON SUCH SHORT NOTICE, ESPECIALLY AGAINST SOMEONE OF MISTY BLUE'S CALIBER. CANDI, ON THE OTHER HAND DOESN'T REALLY HAVE MUCH TO LOSE HERE. SHE WAS NOT REALLY IN LINE FOR A TITLE SHOT ANYTIME SOON. BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, A CRUSHING DEFEAT HERE MIGHT SPELL THE END OF HER LONG AND ILLUSTRIOUS CAREER. WE'LL HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS PRETTY SOON AS THE FIGHT IS ABOUT TO BEGIN. THE BELL RINGS. BOTH FIGHTERS APPROACH THE CENTER OF THE RING AND LOCK ARMS. CANDY PULLS OUT AND PLACES MISTY IN A HAMMER LOCK. MISTY TWISTS OUT AND REVERSES THE HOLD . CANDI USES HER FREE HAND AND YANKS MISTY OVER HER SHOULDER. MISTY ROLLS OVER AND LEAPS TO HER FEET AND LANDS A DROP KICK. CANDI FALLS TO THE CANVAS. MISTY LIFTS HER AND IRISH WHIPS HER INTO THE ROPES CATCHING HER WITH A VICIOUS CLOTHESLINE AS SHE COMES OFF THE ROPES. CANDI GOES DOWN . MISTY LIFTS HER OFF THE CANVAS AND SLAMS HER BACK DOWN. SHE FOLLOWS UP WITH A CRASHING ELBOW SMASH ACROSS CANDI'S NECK MAKING HER ENTIRE BODY JERK AN INCH OFF THE FLOOR. MISTY GRABS HER AND IRISH WHIPS HER AGAIN CATCHING HER WITH A FLYING DROP KICK RIGHT TO THE FACE. CANDI IS DOWN ON THE MAT AND SHE IS HURT! SHE'S ROLLING AROUND CLUTCHING HER FACE IN PAIN. MISTY LIFTS HER TO HER FEET AND SETS HER UP FOR A SUPLEX. CANDI COMES CRASHING DOWN BACK FIRST TO THE CANVAS. SHE IS IN TROUBLE. MISTY LIFTS HER UP BY THE HAIR AND SMASHES HER HEAD INTO THE TURNBUCKLE. SHE DRAGS HER TO THE NEXT CORNER,SMASHES HER AGAIN, AND REPEATS THE FAVOR IN THE THIRD CORNER. CANDI'S NEARLY OUT OF IT. SHE'S BEING DRAGGED ON WOBBLY LEGS TO THE FOURTH CORNER WHERE MISTY SLAMS HER HEAD INTO THE FOURTH TURNBUCKLE. AND AGAIN. AND AGAIN. THE CROWD BEGINS TO COUNT"6,7,8." MISTY DOESN'T LET UP. "9,10." SHE WHIPS A DAZED CANDI INTO THE ROPES AND CATCHES HER IN A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX. CANDI IS IN SERIOUS TROUBLE. MISTY IS CLIMBING UP TO THE THIRD ROPE. THIS IS ONE OF MISTY'S FAVORITE FINISHING MOVES, AND WRESTLING HISTORIANS WILL RECALL THAT THIS WAS THE WAY SHERRY MARTEL BEAT CANDI THE FIRST TIME FOR THE AWA CHAMPIONSHIP. CANDI IS NOT MOVING. MISTY COMES FLYING OFF THE ROPES. OH NO! CANDI MOVES AWAY AT THE LAST SECOND AND MISTY LANDS HARD! I'VE NEVER SEEN HER MISS ONE OF THOSE BEFORE. SHE IS IN DEEP TROUBLE ! CANDI ROLLS HER ON HER BACK AND CRASHES AN ELBOW INTO MISTY'S ALREADY DAMAGED MIDSECTION. SHE LIFTS HER TO HER FEET AND IRISH WHIPS HER INTO THE ROPES CATCHING HER WITH A SHARP SHOT TO THE MIDSECTION AS SHE CAME FLYING OFF THE ROPES. SHE LIFTS MISTY UP AND SLAMS HER TO THE MAT. SHE FOLLOWS THAT WITH ANOTHER ELBOW SMASH TO THE MIDSECTION. MISTY IS SERIOUSLY HURT. CANDI LIFTS HER AGAIN AND CLOTHESLINES HER OFF THE ROPES. CANDI'S NOT GIVING MISTY ANY TIME TO RECOVER. SHE LIFTS HER AND FLINGS HER BACK FIRST INTO THE CORNER POST. CANDI GOES TO THE OPPOSITE CORNER, CHARGES MISTY AND CRASHES ON HER WITH A FULL BODY SPLASH. CANDI STEPS BACK AS MISTY FALLS FACE FIRST TO THE CANVAS. I THINK SHE'S OUT OF IT. CANDI ROLLS HER OVER, BACKS INTO THE ROPES AND COMES OFF IN A FLYING LEG DROP ACROSS MISTY'S NECK. MISTY'S IN TERRIBLE SHAPE. CANDI GOES FOR THE PIN. "ONE..TWO" MISTY GETS A SHOULDER UP. CANDI FLINGS HER INTO THE CORNER POST AGAIN, CLIMBS ON THE SECOND ROPE AND BEGINS PUMMELING A DEFENSELESS MISTY. THE CROWD'S COUNTING. "5,6,7." CANDI KEEPS GOING. SHE IS VERY, VERY STRONG. MISTY'S LEGS ARE RUBBERY, HER ARMS ARE BY HER SIDE, HER SHOULDERS ARE SLUMPED, AND HER HEAD IS DOWN. "8,9,10." CANDI PULLS MISTY TO THE CENTER OF THE RING. SHE'S SETTING HER UP FOR A PILEDRIVER. CANDI'S DONE HER HOMEWORK. MISTY HAS ALWAYS BEEN ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE TO THE PILEDRIVER. SHE'S UPSIDE DOWN WITH HER LEGS IN THE AIR AS CANDI COMES CRASHING DOWN DRIVING HER HEAD STRAIGHT INTO THE CANVAS. SHE GOES FOR THE COVER. "ONE..TWO...THREE!" MISTY HAS BEEN PINNED! CANDI IS JUMPING AROUND THE RING AS MISTY LAYS THERE SPREAD EAGLE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING UNABLE TO MOVE. SHE TOOK A BEATING AND SHE IS HURT. LET'S GO TO THE RING ANNOUNCER. " THE FIRST FALL GOES TO CANDI....DIVINE." THE CROWD'S REACTION IS ONE OF CONFUSION AND DISMAY. NO ONE REALLY EXPECTED CANDI TO BE MUCH OF A CHALLENGE TONIGHT. NOT TO TAKE ANYTHING AWAY FROM HER, IT'S JUST THAT MISTY HAS BEEN SO DOMINANT LATELY. MISTY IS STRUGGLING TO GET TO HER FEET. THAT PILEDRIVER REALLY TOOK A LOT OUT OF HER. SHE SLIDES OVER TO THE CORNER AND GRABS THE BOTTOM ROPE. SHE'S PULLING HERSELF UP BY THE ROPES DESPERATELY TRYING TO GET UP BEFORE THE BELL RINGS. THE CHAMPIONSHIP IS AT STAKE HERE. MISTY'S HOLDING ON TO THE ROPES AS THE BELL FOR THE SECOND FALL RINGS. CANDI COMES RUSHING TOWARDS HER HOPING TO FINISH HER OFF. MISTY LIFTS HER KNEE CRASHING INTO CANDI'S MIDSECTION. BARELY ABLE TO HOLD HERSELF UP, MISTY KNEES CANDI AGAIN, GRABS HER AROUND THE NECK AND..OH NO! DDT! AN OFF GUARD CANDI WAS CAUGHT WITH MISTY'S DREADED DDT! CANDI'S KNOCKED OUT! MISTY IS DESPERATELY TRYING TO GET OVER AND PIN CANDI, BUT SHE CAN'T MUSTER THE STRENGTH TO MOVE. SHE STILL FEELING THE EFFECTS OF THE FIRST FALL. THIS IS INCREDIBLE. BOTH FIGHTERS ARE ON THE CANVAS, NEITHER BEING ABLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE OTHERS PREDICAMENT. MISTY IS CLUTCHING DESPERATELY AT THE BOTTOM ROPE, TRYING TO GET HERSELF TO HER FEET AND OVER TO THE FALLEN CANDI DIVINE WHO IS LYING FACE FIRST ON THE CANVAS NOT MOVING. SHE NOW BEGINS TO SHAKE HER HEAD. SHE TRIES TO LIFT HERSELF UP, BUT HER ONCE POWERFUL ARMS GIVE OUT, AND SHE FALLS BACK TO THE CANVAS. MISTY GETS TO HER FEET AND WALKS OVER TOWARDS CANDI, WHO BY NOW HAS GOTTEN TO HER KNEES. MISTY APPROACHES AND CANDI SHOOTS OUT A SHARP JAB WHICH LANDS IN MISTY'S MIDSECTION AND KNOCKS THE AIR OUT OF HER LUNGS. SOME SAY EXPERIENCE IS EVERYTHING, AND CANDI IS DEFINITELY EXPERIENCED. CANDI GETS UP AND LANDS ANOTHER JAB, AND ANOTHER. MISTY COUNTERS WITH A FOREARM TO THE HEAD. CANDI JABS TO THE MIDSECTION. MISTY FOREARMS TO THE HEAD. AND SHE LANDS ANOTHER. CANDI IS STUNNED! MISTY LANDS ANOTHER FOREARM TO THE FACE, LIFTS CANDI AND SLAMS HER TO THE MAT. SHE QUICKLY LIFTS HER AND SLAMS HER AGAIN. THE RINGS IS SHAKING FROM THE POWER OF THAT LAST SLAM. MISTY KEEPS UP THE PRESSURE BY WHIPPING CANDI INTO THE ROPES AND CATCHING HER WITH A FLYING CLOTHESLINE. CANDI LANDS HARD. MISTY WHIPS HER INTO THE ROPES AGAIN, SCOOPS HER UP AND POWERSLAMS HER TO THE MAT IN ONE SMOOTH MOTION. CANDI MAY BE RIPE FOR THE PIN. MISTY GOES FOR THE COVER. "ONE, TWO. THR" CANDI KICKS OUT.MISTY LIFTS HER AND SLAMS HER TO THE MAT AGAIN. MISTY FALLS TO THE MAT AND APPLIES THE LEG SCISSORS TO CANDI'S MIDSECTION. CANDI THRASHES ABOUT WILDLY AS SHE FEELS THE EFFECT OF MISTY'S POWERFUL LEGS TIGHTENING AROUND HER WAIST. MISTY RAISES HER BUTT TO GET MORE LEVERAGE ON THE HOLD. CANDI BENDS TO THE WAIST IN AN ATTEMPT TO PRY LOOSE MISTY'S MUSCULAR LEGS, BUT MISTY SENDS HER BACK TO THE CANVAS WITH A FOREARM SMASH. CANDI IS NOT MOVING. THE REF COMES OVER AND LIFTS CANDI'S ARM. IT FALLS BACK TO THE CANVAS. HE LIFTS IT AGAIN ONLY TO HAVE IT FALL LIMPLY TO THE CANVAS. THE TENSION IS BUILDING. WILL THIS BE THE EQUALIZER? THE REF LIFTS CANDI'S ARM UP FOR THE THIRD AND FINAL TIME. IT BEGINS TO FALL BACK, BUT SUDDENLY SHE LUNGES FORWARD AND BRINGS HER ELBOW DOWN IN THE CENTER OF MISTY'S THIGH. OW!! TALK ABOUT A CHARLIE HORSE. MISTY'S LEGS IMMEDIATELY COME APART AND CANDY ROLL OUT. SHE GETS UP AND DROPS AN ELBOW SMASH ON MISTY'S DAMAGED LEG. MISTY ROLLS OUT AND CANDI LANDS HARD ON HER ELBOW. MISTY LIFTS CANDI TO HER FEET AND LANDS A FOREARM SMASH TO HER HEAD . SHE FOLLOWS UP WITH ANOTHER AND ANOTHER. CANDI IS BACKING UP. MISTY CONTINUES TO POUND HER AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN. SUDDENLY CANDI STOPS BACKING UP AND HER BODY GOES RIGID. MISTY CONTINUES TO POUND HER, BUT NOW HER BLOWS ARE HAVING NO EFFECT ON CANDI. SHE'S JUST STANDING THERE AND TAKING IT. NOW SHE COUNTERS WITH A SHOT OF HER OWN. AND ANOTHER. AND ANOTHER. NOW MISTY IS STUNNED AND SHE'S BACKING UP. IT'S CANDI'S TURN TO DO THE POUNDING NOW AND SHE IS NAILING MISTY WITH ONE FOREARM AFTER ANOTHER. MISTY CONTINUES TO BACK UP. SHE'S DEFENSELESS. SHE IN THE CORNER, AND CANDI IS NOT LETTING UP. HER FOREARM SMASHES WERE EFFECTIVE BEFORE AND THEY ARE EFFECTIVE NOW. SHE MUST HAVE LANDED 15 CONSECUTIVE BLOWS. MISTY IS BEING PUMMELED IN THE CORNER AND SHE'S UNABLE TO STOP IT. CANDI KEEPS ON HITTING AND HITTING HER. HER LEGS ARE WOBBLY. HER KNEES ARE BENT. SHE'S SLUMPING TO THE CORNER AS CANDI CONTINUES TO POUND HER. CANDI STEPS BACK AND OBSERVES A BARELY CONSCIOUS MISTY SLUMPED IN THE CORNER BEFORE GOING AFTER HER AGAIN. SHE LIFTS HER TO HER FEET AND PUNCHES HER RIGHT IN THE FACE. MISTY GOES DOWN HARD. CANDI LIFTS HER UP, GRABS HER NECK, TWISTS AROUND, AND COMES CRASHING DOWN WITH A NECKBREAKER THAT DOES A LOT OF DAMAGE. MISTY'S IN BAD SHAPE. CANDI CRASHES DOWN ON HER PRONE BODY WITH AN ELBOW SMASH. MISTY'S WHOLE BODY JERKS UP AND DOWN. SHE LIFTS HER OFF THE CANVAS AND SUPLEXES HER BACK DOWN. NOT GIVING HER AN INSTANT TO RECOVER, CANDI FLINGS MISTY INTO THE ROPES AND CATCHES HER IN A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX AS SHE COMES OFF THE ROPES. MISTY DEFINITELY DIDN'T NEED THAT. CANDI GOES FOR THE PIN. "ONE,TWO, THRE" MISTY KICKS OUT AT THE LAST INSTANT. CANDI GRABS HER AND SENDS HER FLYING HEAD FIRST INTO THE TURNBUCKLE. MISTY'S BODY JERKS BACKWARDS UPON THE IMPACT AND FALLS BACK TO THE CANVAS. CANDI LIFTS HER, GRABS HER BY THE NECK AND STARTS RUNNING ACROSS THE RING WITH HER. OH NO! BULLDOG! THE TITLE'S ON THE LINE HERE! CANDI ROLLS OVER MISTY'S DEVASTATED BODY AND GOES FOR THE PIN. " ONE, TWO, THRE.." MISTY PUTS HER LEG ON THE ROPE AND BREAKS THE COUNT. CANDI LIFTS A BARELY CONSCIOUS MISTY BLUE AND IRISH WHIPS HER INTO THE ROPES. MISTY'S LEGS CAN BARELY HOLD HER UP. CANDI GRABS HER OFF THE ROPES AND APPLIES A FRONTAL BEARHUG. CANDI IS SQUEEZING WITH ALL SHE'S GOT AS MISTY STRUGGLES VAINLY TO GET FREE OF THIS CRUSHING HOLD. THE STRUGGLE GIVES WAY TO A TWITCH AS CANDI CONTINUES TO SQUEEZE THE LIFE OUT OF MISTY. MISTY'S HEAD IS DOWN. HER ARMS ARE BY HER SIDE. SHE'S NOT MOVING. THE REF MOVES IN TO LIFT MISTY'S ARM TO SEE IF SHE CAN CONTINUE, BUT CANDI SPINS AROUND AWAY FROM HIM. MISTY'S ARMS HANG LIFELESSLY AS CANDI CONTINUES TO TWIRL AWAY FROM THE REF ALL THE WHILE CANDI CONTINUES TO APPLY THIS DESTRUCTIVE HOLD. SHE FINALLY LETS GO AND MISTY'S LIMP BODY CRASHES TO THE CANVAS. THE CHAMPION IS OUT ON HER BACK. SHE IS NOT MOVING. SHE'S BEEN OVERWHELMED. CANDI IS CLIMBING TO THE THIRD ROPE. THIS IS NOT A GOOD IDEA. EVEN THROUGH MISTY HAS TAKEN A COLOSSAL BEATING, YOU CAN'T EVER TAKE HER LIGHTLY. AFTER ALL, SHE IS THE CHAMPION. CANDI COMES FLYING OFF THE ROPES, AND LANDS SQUARELY ON MISTY'S SPENT BODY. THE REF COUNTS. " ONE. TWO THREE!!" I DON'T BELIEVE IT! I DON'T BELIEVE IT! WHAT AN UPSET! CANDI DIVINE IS THE NEW LADIES CHAMPION! SHE BEAT THE AMAZING MISTY BLUE SIMMES IN TWO STRAIGHT FALLS, AND SHE WASN'T EVEN SUPPOSED TO GET THE TITLE SHOT! SHE IS JUMPING AROUND THE RING IN JOY, AS MISTY LAYS THERE IN THE CENTER OF THE RING, HER ONCE POWERFUL BODY RACKED WITH PAIN. SHE TOOK A TREMENDOUS BEATING HERE TONIGHT. SHE IS DEVASTATED. LET'S GO TO THE RING ANNOUNCER. " THE WINNER OF THE SECOND FALL..AND NNNNEW LADIES CHAMPION IS CAN-DI DI-VIIINE!!!!" THE CROWD IS STUNNED AT THE OUTCOME, BUT CHEER OUT OF RESPECT TO CANDI DIVINE WHO CERTAINLY DESERVES IT TONIGHT. THE RING ATTENDANTS ARE HELPING A BADLY DAMAGED MISTY TO HER FEET. ON HER FACE IS THE UNFAMILIAR AGONY OF DEFEAT. SHE RARELY EVER LOSES. BUT SHE WAS BESTED TONIGHT AND WE HAVE A NEW WORLD CHAMPION IN CANDI DIVINE! MISTY COMPOSES HERSELF, AND LIKE THE TRUE CHAMPION THAT SHE IS, GOES OVER AND CONGRATULATES THE NEW CHAMPION. MISTY SUFFERED A TERRIBLE DEFEAT TONIGHT, BUT I AM SURE THAT SHE'LL HAVE MANY MORE BRIGHT DAYS AHEAD OF HER. SHE'LL DEFINITELY BOUNCE BACK. AS FOR CANDI DIVINE, HER CAREER HAS BEEN REVITALIZED AND SHE IS NOW THE WORLD CHAMPION AGAIN. WE'LL HAVE TO SEE HOW SHE WILL WEATHER THE CHALLENGES WHICH WILL SURELY FACE HER. GOOD NIGHT FOLKS!!
