Chapter 9-Page-22-No Disqualification
Vince’s last statement…is he right? (what he said, not what he did.) Also, is Sabrina’s statement right? And where can we go from here? How can Sabrina or Kat salvage this match?

Called it
as they all say..
Male have always the advantage..
Vincent to Kat..
and yes..
Kat’s gonna feel in the morning..
but dq..
Big problem…
Remember no DQ.. Jennifer and Angel can now rush into the ring and help Kat.. that’s make it worse on Sabrina..
if Vincent wanna help Sabrina..
Do This..
1. This is now a one on one no interferance match with Vincent the referee,
2. just declare Sabrina the winner, due to Kat can’t continue..
Sabrina will reluctantly win via Vince’s dirty refereeing and everybody will hate her, and Vince will be killed post match.
Depending on the circumstances, I might not even take the win this way. I can’t imagine blondie will be up for it.
She may not have a say in the matter. He could enforce tough love by knocking her out and draping her lifeless body over Kat’s.
First off, I will admit, I was wrong. Wrong wrong-o ix-nay on the right part. I see two things here. First, like Callie I can’t see Sabrina accepting a win like this, but I CAN see her smacking him. And since Vince appears to be in a world where logic is an undesirable element, he might waffle her with the chair too.
Second… last I checked, a ref does not have the authority to change the rules. Promoters and management, yeah, it’s their schtick. But while a ref may give a rediculous amount of leeway, to the point of ignoring blatant cheating, they can’t announce ‘no DQ’ and expect it to stick.
Killed off-screen, of course. This isn’t that kind of webcomic, and televised death sports are still at least a hundred years from happening.
Sabrina would be wise to walk away from the match
That’s quite the insult he delivered to Sabrina in his penultimate sentence. He’s “evening the odds” by cracking a chair across Kat’s back.
I’d be pretty insulted by the last line too. “Us?” What “us” would that be? It’s just creepy.
This has gotten a tad out of hand.
Unprecedented, at least for Rival Angels.
So why hasn’t anyone stopped the match?
Marina is coming down per the VI. Maybe she will?
This is just getting all messed up! This match should be a no contest due to messed up referee.
Maybe that’s what’s coming by way of the VI?
I think both Sabrina and Kat would actually agree on this.
Ultraderp: I can fight my own battles!
That’s why she’s Ultraderp.
How can Sabrina or Kat salvage this match?
This has gone past MINUS! FIVE! STARS! Dixie should have just dumped the Russo thinking and booked Kat v. Ultrabrat v. Kenny for the title that hasn’t been held hostage. What a train wreck.
Like Mo Chen, called it. Either way, I’d have been right, really, but personally, I’m glad this isn’t a repeat of the starting point of the road to the Montreal Screwjob. Now, where’s this going to go, if not Vincent giving the slowest three-count imaginable to prolong the victory he may or may not have intended to help Katherine steal? I do wonder.
I’d be walking out if I was Sabrina. No way I’m taking a win like that. Count me out.
I think that’s a good choice, but a hard one.
I don’t think it’s even a hard choice. You don’t want to win like that, and if you’re good enough you’re always going to be able to earn another shot. Besides, even if you take the win there’s a fair chance management’s not going to let it stand anyway. At the very least Kat would be getting a rematch right?
Well, THAT escalated quickly!
And, it’s not over yet.
Okay, NOW Vincent’s in trouble. Because I never seen a ref do something like THAT to an opponent before. 🙁
Something also tells me that Michael’s in BIG trouble as well. 🙁
Even I hate to say it, but Sabrina should walk away now just to save her dignity. 🙁
I immediately wondered just how bad Michael would be getting roasted for his secret plan that’s led to crazy ref attacking the talent.
You could say that this is going to have long standing repercussions for the rest of the season. The meatgrinder is warming up.
The Question is Katherine knocked out?
can she continue?
I never seen Katherine in this situation…
True, she’s usually the one on the other side of the chair.
… Is it safe to say that Michael’s pitch for ratings just blew up in his face?
No matter how this hashes out, heads are going to roll in the morning.
It is safe to say that. All of that.
This. Is. UGLY.
And we’re not done yet. ‘Ugly’ happens at the end of the chapter.
I can hardly wait. NOT!
if i was sabrina i’d drape Kat over herself and force vincent to make the 3 count. also like the “they” considering he already kicked the rest of “they” out already.
somehow i also envision michael sitting in the luxury box with a proud smile on his face while gabby is sitting behind her at her desk facepalming.
I think we need a shot of Gabrielle and Michael and what they think of this shaking out. I think they’re backstage now…
Snickers* A ref can’t change the terms of a match. I don’t think a ref can take out a wrestler either, but that might have been done before. They certainly have screwed them over; maybe this is just a variation. That’s what the attorney is going to say anyway at the upcoming hearings.
Awesome art here!
Thanks, Champ!
Yeah, Vince has let the power go to his head. With the VI hint, do you think Marina is going to help Sabrina, Vince, or something else?
This is rapidly going from ‘agonizing’ to ‘unbearable.’
There’s really only one way out with dignity intact, Sabrina. Ultrakick him and walk out. I’m pretty sure the point where he’s attacking wrestlers with chairs is also the point where he loses the protection of the striped shirt.
From my experience, a striped shirt offers little protection.
I knocked an Official out last month.
…
Accidently!!
I read that match! XD
Silly ref shouldn’t have been standing in the way like that!
If I recall correctly, it wasn’t either the ref or Sammie’s fault. 😉
Ultrakicking someone is certainly an option.
*covers eyes with StrawBeary*
Is it over?
*peeks*
**********
Baby ‘Brina Watch!
Sabrina and I now have matching onesies for sleepy time.
It amuses me no end.
Imma sure, later in life, she will be mortified.
I will remind her.
*nod*
The Comments page lacking a Like button has never been more tragic. Plotting the future shame of infant children… priceless.
I concur and approve wholeheartedly. 🙂
Take pictures.
Seconded! There must be proof!
And I think we just saw the end of Vincent, and possibly Michael’s career right here. Smart thing to do for Brina would be to just walk out on the match. This has already turned into a trainwreck, and there’s no need to get caught up in the backlash. Not to mention it keeps her integrity intact and could gain her a good deal of respect
You can bet the locker room is watching this pretty intently.
Nice, Vincent. Go look for another career. You just bought your ticket out of the wrestling industry, no matter what happens next. Angel and Jennifer should rush the ring now. Payback needs to happen now to show that no one attacks the Belles like that.
I’m interested to see what Michael and Marina are going to do now. Michael needs a miracle to save his job now. This is the worst way to bring back Sabrina (a headliner), unless she is doing a Hulk Hogan NWO heel turn. If Sabrina doesn’t walk away, would he attempt to do a Russo and have Christina (No 1. Contender) go down there and knock her out?
Sabrina and Micheal are in quite a spot. Good luck escaping out of it.
They ARE in a spot! Let’s see what they do next. XD
The Xtina idea is interesting. 😉 It’s possible that she’s got an appearance coming up. With Marina coming to ringside (see VI) and a promised cameo of Dyna and Sammie, it’s going to get crowded soon. XD
While this’d be a brilliant way to turn Sabrina heel, it’s pretty clear she’s not on-board with that.
Also, thinking long-term, she’s just not heel material. Even if she were, it’d be a mistake here, as the fans don’t want to hate her.
He keeps saying “us.” Obsessive much? Oh Vincent. Sabrina should switch the match to be vs. him instead.
Michael shot down the Vince/Sabrina vs Hell’s Belles match. To Vince, this is the next best thing because he’s doing all of this for the ‘two of them.’
Us?
Yikes! Sabrina better watch out, or she’s gonna find a cooked rabbit in her kitchen crock pot.
Yeah, Vince is blurring the lines. Hell, they were never really distinct for him in the first place.
Wow, I think they need a second opinion. Or an impartial ref. This is turning into a grudge match between the ref and the wrestlers….
Sometimes these elements turn into an entertaining matches, but in this instance, train wreck. Let’s watch!
Sabrina can fight her own battles. Vince ruined the match.
Curious what Gabrielle thinks & what her actions will be after the match ;-).
I easily see Sabrina just walking away pissed off, however can’t feel sorry for kat she’s a cheating d bag so she deserves exactly what happened.
This match is a clusterf**k.
Loved the crowd reaction panel. It says it all.
Have a feeling Sabrina will just repudiate him and walk away from the ring. The bit is, though, this kind of soap opera is just what wrestling fans feed on. And even though the Boss Lady won’t like it, she may end up going with it to keep attention high, just as Vince McMahon played the Screwjob into ongoing dramas.
That is, if she doesn’t bop him with the chair herself…but I doubt she’ll do that.
I’ll toss in a late prediction of “Marina tries to call a halt to proceedings and Vince clatters HER with the chair.”
