Chapter 10-Page-7-Big Shot
This conversation certainly took an interesting turn. Maybe Krystin doesn’t know Gabrielle as well as she thinks? The good thing about lines drawn in the sand is that they can blown away. Make no mistake about it, Gabrielle will let them know when she wants to let them know.

Krystin is being nicer face-to-face than I would have expected. Pleasantly surprised.
I love how she preens and poses, bragging about being the big shot, talking about it being her company, and then has to call the office phone like everybody else. Guess that’s the difference between a minor title and the REAL title, huh?
Rival Angels sells cell phone cases? Interesting.
Wow, I really do have my bosses personal phone number, to bad I don’t have a cell phone….have to do it the old fashion way and use a land line. But still she will find out if she is important by how long it takes to connect up to the big cheese.
Yes, they do have cell phone covers though the Hello Catgirls cover is much nicer.
The Catgirls cellphone cover is da bomb.
It has a lot to do with the person and the amount of time as champion. Ricky Steamboat said something to that effect that being a two week champion is different than being a six-month champion, or something like that.
I’m sure we’ll find out what Gabrielle really thinks soon. 😉
I have a feeling Krystin won’t be getting what she wants and her under-the-counter “medication” will play a factor in that.
I think you’re right 🙁 .
I do understand why though. She worked hard to get where she is and fears that if her hand doesn’t heal quickly she will be pushed in to Sabrina’s shadow again.
She could just.. ya’know.. heal up and then keep winning?
It doesn’t matter if she’s super popular. If you can beat her then you can be TV champion. Or in this case if you can beat Kat then you can be TV champion.
You want to be a big shot? Just go win.
Scuffles, you’re right too :D!
I don’t think Krystin quite realizes that the Powers That Be in Rival Angels are going to sit up and take notice if she seems to be healing from her injury more rapidly than expected. I would think that the Medical staff in a wrestling promotion are QUITE familiar with the average recovery times from various “standard-issue” injuries that happen to their talent, and are ALSO aware of what may just so happen to accelerate said recovery. Based on how strict Wellness Policies tend to be in various promotions, I would expect them to have that shite down to a SCIENCE.
Hell, I wouldn’t be surprised if she’d need to take drug tests ANYWAY, just for being injured! Even if they don’t suspect a thing, I’ve had more than one job where it was company policy to get a drug test order if you had ANY injury that required a session with a doctor/ER.
I’ll note that it IS wrestling. Cena got a video package honouring his coming back from injury more early. That said, Krystin isn’t Cena…
I think the powers to be will overlook her quick healing abilities and she will have the title for a little bit while they figure out their next move. They made the mistake of trying to set up the fight and failed and the fans are pissed so they need to tread lightly for a bit.
Well, she’s a Big something all right. 😀
Not sure about big but am sure she has a confidence issue.
Just like that, Kenny has been exposed. Winning the TV Title was just a happy accident, as with any match won by the dreaded roll-up of doom. I bet Dixie didn’t even show up to put the title on her. And look who shows up out of the blue to give the wake up call that Kenny is not what’s hot on the streets. Combine that with the roids and Kenny’s career is as good as dea–over. Yeah, over.
And all to remind us who the real top dog is in Rival Angels:Ultrayandere Sabrina Mancini.
Krystin can talk big all she wants, it’s only going to lead her into more Trouble in the end, with a capital T.
At least she acknowledge that Sabrina’s choice would’ve been a dirty move.
Yes it does but it also shows she would take a dirty move to win the title. What I don’t understand is why would anyone think that they will get treated fairly in the league after that?
We might have to check in and see how Kat is doing for taking the belt. !!
*ponders*
I don’t think Krystin understands Title Hierarchy.
Everyone knows the Lightweight Division is where its at.
*nod*

Baby ‘Brina Watch!
Sabrina-Ripley is startled by her own tiny sneezes.
Very startled.
She is in need of immediate huggies.
*hugs*

YouTube of the Day!

Giant Robots!
ok, now she’s revealed her weakness to you so when she uses her “flailing fists of adorable fury” technique against you, inhale some pepper and the resulting sneeze might catch her off guard long enough for the roll-up to keep your titles…for now… 🙂
Hmmmm…
That seems awfully underhanded, that sounds like something Cromwell would do…
Sneaky…
Baby Brina is adorableness.
That’s just what she wants you to think.
She’s a terror…a terror who won’t let me sleep!!
Hee hee. Baby sneezes are just so cute. I guess she can’t understand the big noise came out of her
She makes plenty of other big noises so she should be used to it XP
…
My Lori has just informed me that Baby ‘Brina takes after me in that regard. How rude!
Sneezing is scary when you first do it, I bet! Your body just sort of jerks and your lungs empty themselves forcefully, and it’s really uncomfortable, and it’s not really clear why it’s happening! Poor baby! I think I’d need hugs too.
There are hugs to go around!
Midcard champion, and Krystin’s the bigshot. Riiiight. And I’m the rightful WWE Champion.
Congrats on being the champion of the Wicked Women Exposed show.
A big cheese in a fix league sounds as good as a mouse saying the got the first bite of cheese in trap.
Even still, I think Krystin had a certain perception of what Sabrina was in the company before she left for BRA, and that she has replaced Sabrina. Hence, she is now that certain perception.
last panel: Brina is unimpressed by Krystin’s “closeness” with Gabrielle.
also why do i see a flashback coming where Gabby is telling Larry: “Listen Moline keeps bugging me for every little thing. so i changed my cell phone number and if she calls again tell her i’m not here. and do NOT give her this number…ever.”
VI- Gabby breaks the news that Krystin has to fight Kat to keep her TV title. Krystin being the technical epxert that she is instantly realizes the only person she knows who has beaten Kat is in the room right there with her.
(Krystin- fake smiley face) “SABRINA! WELCOME BACK! I KNOW LET’S GRAB SOMETHING TO EAT AND YOU CAN TELL ME ALL ABOUT JAPAN! oh and what was it like fighting Kat again, Vincent is such a tool. WHJat move did you say Kat was real weak against again? why? oh no reason.””
Alternate theory: Someone remembered her roommate’s rugby history, and sees a potential recruit for that flag handegg match against the MMA folks.
Agreed. I will be surprised if Sabrina refuses, seeing how stir-crazy she is at the house.
Also, Krystin have nothing to gain by being rude to Sabrina’s face. After all, if Sabrina stays around, you still have to live in the same house as her. Topher isn’t Michael (Brooke’s Sugardaddy). Where is Sun staying at the moment? Kyra?
I do believe this will be coming into play. Maybe. Probably. XD
I never considered Sabrina the “Big Star” of Rival Angels. Sabrina is the Rob Van Dam or Chris Jericho of Rival Angels sure. As she’s entertaining to watch and people cheer for her.
Rival Angels the comic or Rival Angels the wrestling company that exists in that comic? In the latter, you’re correct, but for the former, she’s definitely the main protagonist.
Sabrina’s not the big star, but she was Gabby’s best hope for a new star.
Callie to the rescue!
So much for being the big shot. If Sabby whips out the cell number and starts calling, this thing is going to get real. I mean, like they are going to throw down and trash that freshly cleaned apartment, real.
Yes, but WE will be the true winners in that one. XD
You can almost hear the “Wah wah Waaaaaaaaaah” when Krystin got the boss’s secretary. Sucked ALL the wind out of her argument
Larry is an excellent buffer for Gabrielle. XD
Panel 1: Excellent! Love that shot. Really great work there.
Panel 3: You broke the 180-degree rule! I mean, I don’t actually care, but you KNOW you’ve been wondering if someone was going to point that out.
I’m okay with it. I’m Ike Turner when it comes to the 180 rule. XD
The teaser looks promising :).
Cool, I liked it too. lol
It’s going to be tough, and I’m sure Krystin will get a push. But I think the Powers That Be will recognize Sabrina’s star power and fan base and get behind her soon…because we know Gabrielle wants Sun to kick her ass!
I don’t think I’m letting anything slip by saying that yes, I do believe that Gabrielle would like to see that too.
My my, not only is Krystin egocentric, cheap, and a total slob, but delusional as well. She really thinks that she’s just going to get handed the title back as soon as she get’s healed up? Not that easy, no matter how many back door meads you take. Though It looks like her world view is about to be rocked.
Per her speechifying…it IS her company now. XD I’m sure others like the Champ have other ideas on that.
