Having been caught looking by Sabrina’s aerialism myself, I know it’s easier to say Sun should just move than it is for her to do it, but Sabrina’s taking an awfully big risk there that Sun won’t just move out of the way.
I’ve never done a Shooting Star Flying Punch before, if that’s what she’s trying, but I doubt the physics of it would make it very effective. She’s clearly too angry to mount an effective offense right now.
Actually, taking a closer look at the trajectory, (and possibly the VI <_<) it's looking like Sabrina might be landing on her feet in front of Sun.
If that's the case, I'm going to laugh my arse off that a monumentally pissed off Sabrina ("Sabrina…you've got the crazy eyes") en route to attacking her friend for perceived betrayal will still make sure to do a springboard backflip on the way…for literally no reason at all.
Sun is running to the ring full steam and by the looks of it is still running. Not easy to just move out of the way when running in a straight line.
And there is no Perception about it. Sun sold out her best friend and is stabbing her in the back.
It was a crazy move and unless Sun is too stunned to counter or move Sabrina could get hurt. While Sabrina might land on her feet I think she will need to grab Sun or fall on her to avoid landing on her face.
Sun’s quicker on her feet than you are. It’s flat-out crazy. You just have to crash and burn on a move like that more often than not when they can see you coming.
‘course crazy catches people by surprise pretty good sometimes too.
Is Sabrina flipping forwards or backwards? If you’re trying to punch or clothesline someone on the way down like it looks like she’s trying to do it makes sense to flip forwards like you would for a 450 splash rather than backwards like you would for a Shooting Star press, right?
This is definitely Shooting Star, but because it’s Sabrina, this didn’t necessarily have to be a Press, but she could also use a kick because, you know, her finisher and all. She’s kicky. Then, how cool would a punch be?
So True story: I had no idea even while drawing this what Sabrina was going for, so you’ll just have to wait to see what happens next update. XD
Scuffles – as resident punching-stuff-guy, I’ve got to say, yes, leading into a punch with a backflip is extremely sub-optimal for force output. Your upper body is moving up and back in that motion, which is opposite the direction you want to apply force, and you can’t plant your back foot to correct for that, because your feet aren’t on the ground. Flipping forward would at least counter the latter disadvantage by starting with lots of momentum down and forward. And looking at the body mechanics, Sabrina does look to be backflipping.
On the other hand, optimal force output might not be desired here. With a diving punch from the top rope to the outside, the backflip could change the technique into “effective statement to begin the match” from “sharing a hospital room and waiting for X-rays.”
A forearm at that speed is more than enough.
No doubt. Beyond a certain point, the question changes from “how do I hurt them more” to “how do I hurt me less.” That point is well after you get enough force to cause injury, if you’re serious about it, but when when you’re leaping a few yards, it’s kinda a big deal.
All Sun has to do is move, just like Loretta did during her match with Sabrina. I hate to say this, but COME ON SUN!!!! lol
COME ON SABRINA!!!!!
Sabrina has to win so that gives her more motivation than Sun but still Sun shouldn’t be a push over either.
Sabrina will still have a job if Sun wins, REMEMBER Yvonne & Sabrina backstage? Also, Sabrina is good for business, just like Daniel Bryan is. But again, GO SUN!!!!
This rocks :)!
Albone built this league
To show case his people
So rock on
I hope you still feel that way by the end. 😉
Well, okay! But, y’know, couldn’t she wait at least till Sun got in the ring?? 😉 I mean, she’s making the ref walk all the way over there and…
Why wait? Attack before Sun can react.
I think the ref is still coming out. XD You know Sabrina. She’s all in.
To quote a certain three diamond backed pony…It is ON! 🙂
However, even I don’t think that leap was possible to do. 🙁
On is good, right?
Rarity is AWESOME and gets respect in the Evans household. Also, it’s who Brooke would be in MLP. XD
Brohoof, Boney? /)
Hokay… this actually surprise Mo Chen… cuz even though I was hoping Sabby would do this – I no think she’d go for it. But, if she’s got no way out, then Brina’s goin’ ‘balls’ to the wall. Much respect!
There are few things that can rile Sabrina up like this. It’s like she forgot her time over in Japan…!
If Japan taught her anything its that you can’t expect anyone to have your back when it’s against the wall.
Which is interesting, since I remember that one of those times when her back was against the wall, I seem to recall a certain someone who DID have her back…
Not so much in Japan after Cocoa turned on her.
You mean when Sun had already left the country?
WOOOOOOOO!
That’s my ‘Brina Girl!!
Kick her Ass!!!
*fist pump*

Baby ‘Brina Watch!
Turns out that babies are not fond of Fireworks. My poor little Baby Girl was in need of considerable comfort and cuddles during the early hours of 2014.
She is considerably more content about the new year now.

Go Go Gadget Kick To Face!!
aww, yeah. Despite how pretty and colorful fireworks are, Babies just don’t seem to enjoy them as much. That’s why we’re going to try and watch them this fourth of July on TV with the neice. That way, there’s volume control
Babies and the loud, sharp sounds don’t agree, yeah. Poor thing.
Babies rule, fireworks drool. Okay, I guess some babies do that too, but it’s cute.
Sabrina is looking to take your advice.
I THOUGHT Sabrina looked ready to fight at the end of Wednesday’s update, but WOW. This is one crazy move. Not sure how the physics pan out for impact, or how smart it is at this stage, but she’s definitely committed to taking the fight to her buddy, and that’s huge in a fight like this.
She IS leaving herself a little open, isn’t she? Committing all out like that? Sun’s no dummy either but Sabrina is as they say, motivated.
And a little wild-eyed too. Sadly, I concur with CM Punk on the subject of crazy chicks…
TRUTH in Punk’s words!
This is awesome!
Let’s hope the look on Sun’s face is deer-in-the-headlights otherwise we might need R Kipling to immortalize Brina’s charge. And I think he’s otherwise occupied
Yeah, I don’t he can make it. XD Sun IS surprised but is it enough for Sabrina to take advantage?
I can do a decent Tennyson:
Half the ring, half the ring
Half the ring onward
All in the valley of Death
Flew the crazed blonde
‘Forward, the Ultragirl!
Charge for the Sun!’ she said
Into the valley of Death
Flew the crazed blonde
Oh, that’s good.
I’d do Lanny Poffo’s gimmick, but Sandow beat me to it 😉
I don’t think anyone has taken the Frisbee bit from that act. XD
There’s a reason for that 😛
Whooo! No better way to start a match than with a springboard 450 Plancha. I doubt Sun expected anything like this level aggression from Brina. She probably thought her bestie would try and talk her out of it first before the bell rang, leaving her time to get the first shot in, but nope, Ultra Girl on the offensive!
Yeah, that idea left the station as soon as Sabrina made her move. This fight is starting outside so who knows what’ll happen.
good thing Brina’s not fighting El Matadores this match cause OLE! would pretty much wreck her. also erin id debating whetehr she should call gimmick infringement for brina’s stealing her Viking Hammer (ok so erin uses a forearm not a fist) …or did she teach it to Brina off screen? dun! dun! dun!
I think Erin and Brina would’ve taught each other a few things. They’re buddies. XD
Epico and Primo have bigger problems than an irate Ultragirl. XD
course brina being extra flippy has to do the shooting star in the middle of it, Erin’s is more like the AJ Styles top rope springboard except from the corner.
and hey Tortino isn;t THAT big 🙂
I’m sorry but I cannot support this anymore. why force this drama down people’s throats? the whole “friends becoming rivals” trope is so cliche and we know what’s gonna happen. Sabrina will win and they’ll hate each other for about 15 pages before coming back together. why is Sun so willing to throw away her friendships all the time? The ONLY time Sun has stuck up for Sabrina was when Sabrina got her arm broken. this isn’t the first time Sun has stabbed Sabrina in the back so why this storyline is being repeated is anyone’s guess. you lost a reader because I’m officially done with this “story”
We’ll miss you, whoever you are.
David, I can see that this current storyline isn’t for you, but you might want to see it through, at least til the end of this chapter, if nothing else so you can feel vindicated in your decision.
It’s been almost a year, 100 pages since Sun walked out of Sabrina’s Tokyo apartment. Time to wrap it up, eh?
Just gotta note here that Sun came to the blonde’s rescue during the Belles’ beatdown that ended with everyone on stage and Sun nearly fell off, and speaking of Tokyo, she interceded against the Syndicate. I’m not entirely sure I ever remember Sabrina coming to Sun’s aid like that, though it must be said that Sun is probably less apt to get herself INTO those situations, so it might be fair to note that Sabrina might have saved Sun had Sun ever needed to.
add to Callie: plus Sun was right about Cocoa ;-).
David, believe me when I say I’ve been where you are. The thing keeping me here is that I THINK (not so arrogant to presume I’m definitely right, but I’m reasonably sure enough to wager on it) that there is more going on than the obvious. I don’t like playing coy, but I don’t want to spoil if I’m right. I’ll just say this — there are several personalities at play here, both in the ring and out. One of those personalities has a signature characteristic — they are always thinking several steps ahead, and is very good at concealing plans until they’re sprung.
But yeah, it looks pretty bleak now, but remember that the obvious isn’t always the full truth.
There’s probably more going on than we think. Remember, Sun was willing to get into Damage, Inc. and mixed it up with Sabrina earlier, even though they got over it. She tends to be the hard wall of reality Sabrina’s idealism keeps butting up against.
Looks like Sabrina’s not gonna wait for Sun and is starting on a high note!
Has the bell even rung yet? Jeez.
Nope. That darned Sabrina’s cheating again!
I’ll make a note. “Callow disapproves of fighting before the bell.” Surely, that will prove to be demonstrated in your actions at all times.
Well A) make sure you spell my name right.
B) After all the moralist posturing about how horrid Gabs was for asking Sabrina to finish the match with Kat after Vince went rogue, I see all the usual suspects, righteous and true defenders of the One True Ultragirl, cheering Sabrina on as she attacks her opponent before the bell.
At some point you lot need to take a hard look at yourselves and realise you don’t occupy any moral high ground, you just like Sabrina better.
Match fixing and trying to get a head start are different levels of foul play if you ask me. I disapprove of both of course because I’m all sweet and innocent and stuff, but the match fixing is still far worse.
I’ma thinking this match is going to be pretty fierce the whole way through. Sun’s never been shy about shortcuts and Sabrina certainly looks like she’s a teeny bit mad so who knows what she might be willing to do… Maybe Gabrielle should have made it no-DQ!
Autocorrect called you “callow.” Funny old thing, autocorrect. Seldom gets you to the destination you expected, but sometimes it surprises you by taking you where you really needed to be.
Explaining things to you is like setting a post in the bog, isn’t it, Callie? Or is it that there’s none so blind as those who will not see? Either way, if you’re that determined to pucker up for Gabby’s backside, I’d invest in some Chap-Stick.
Oops. Meant that to reply to Callie, but the page was doing funny things as I typed again.
Probably in self-defence.
I think one of the most important questions is where has Monica Rumble gone?
She might actually be out there, the camera just isn’t aimed low enough…
“Small Girls Rule!” as she likes to say. No worries, she’s scheduled on the next card. 😉
I think Monica could vs Ashley could be a good match.
🙂 well it was the first time around, would love to teach the little munchkin a lesson.
I do hope we see Monica come back. She needs a friend. Poor Monica always having to fight alone, usually against big girls with friends.
Yeah, kick her ass, sea-bass!
In which case, Sabrina will unleash the incredible Bass-O-Matic!
