Page 195 – Double Team
A Brooke sighting!! Her M.O. remains the same as ever, with her interests in the forefront and Sabrina’s discomfort being a close second.
And discomfort is putting it lightly! If Jennifer isn’t bending the rules, we have Kat out and out breaking them. That haymaker that Kat leveled on to Sabrina was definitely a knockout shot and with Jen pressing the advantage, its anyone’s guess if Sabrina can answer the count. Should Sabrina get pinned here, it would be disappointing but you can’t blame her. Sabrina’s plan, as it were, worked to an extent that Chloe isn’t at ringside but the combination of Kat and Jen is formidable.
Some big editing help here from Justin on this page. I won’t say for certain where he helped but a good guess would be a certain mean-spirited red head. XD
Don’t forget to check out part 2 of my Webcomics Weekend report! With pictures and everything.
Also, I was interviewed by Jason Sigler of Digital Strips, check out the mini-podcast here.  Short and safe for work. 😉
And here we have more proff. It took Kat for Jennifer to get a pin attempt. Note, attempt. Brina isn’t going out that easy. Not this match. Not with lurking Marquis, missing Upstarts, and Brooke distracting her toy… her boy… er… whatever. Way too much going on for Brina to be out yet.
I call this page: Fan Service. It’ll ger MGC frothing again, and then we’ll see the recovery, likely including Sabrina ducking a clothline and going airborn: on Kat. That should help even the odds a bit, and if she can keep the pace high, she’ll catch a pin before the Marquis can get there.
Panel 1: That is one funny scene.. “GoDDess Aphrodite” Brooke Lennox really owned Michael. “Get on the floor” ah? and do what? kiss “GoDDess Aphrodite” Brooke Lennox feet? or ah “roll over” ah? I don’t know.. nice panel..
Â
Panel 2: This panel is also great.. I really like zoom.. and Jennifer Needles said it’s true..
Â
Panel 3: Powerpunch! by “Powergirl” Katherine Smith.. another great panel, zoom..
Panel 4: “it wasn’t me!” Katherine said.. it’s kinda Katherine Smith did a shadow clone technique, and use the shadow clone, to punch Sabrina.
Panel 5: Jennifer Needles pinned Sabrina, 1….2…..
surely a kickout.. coz it’s not yet a finisher move..
again, why? my name is up on the comment again.. as if I’m in the comics. and surely we didn’t see what it’s comment “Sabrina ducking a clothesline and going airborn: on Kat.” when going airborn, she’ll hurt herself more, and it’s a waste of time..Â

M.G.C. battlecry: ROAR!!!JENNIFER…………..NEEDLES……………..ALL……FALL……TO……THE………HELL’S…….BELLES. ROAR!!!!RAAAA!!!!
Wait, is Needles wearing long boots or shoes with stocking the same colour?
Ahhh, Brooke, what a twit… Can’t wait to see her face smeared on the canvas. Looks like Sabrina lost a few teeth thanks to PowerMouse Kat the cheat.  She might be out cold, and it’s possible that she’ll get pinned. Just because albone has all the background plots churning away doesn’t mean they’ll blossom right now.
Hey guys!
Salazen, you’re not too worried about Sabrina are you? There certainly IS a lot going. 😉
MGC, you’ll have to use your imagination for what Brooke has in mind for Michael. 😀 You don’t think Sabrina’s out of it either? Kat’s got a mean right hook.
Bd, yes that’s a matching boot/tight thing she’s got going on.
Ha ha, GhostEraser. Brooke really is lost in her own world. It’s very possible that this match is over, but we do know how the Belle’s like to roll post-match.
Once again, I’m agreeing with Salazen. XD I’m actually thinking that in one way, the two-on-one situation may backfire based on how Jennifer is behaving here. That is, she thinks that because Kat is running interference left and right, she’s got this in the bag… and therefore gets sloppy. That means that sooner or later (likely sooner, as we’ve seen very little evidence of any kind of cleverness from Jennifer) she’ll make a mistake that’ll cost her Kat’s aid for a bit (a missed bump, ferinstance), the match, or both.
And yeah, for the record I find it doubtful that this’ll be the end of the match here. It was a good solid punch, butI don’t think that’s a match-ender right there (unless she’s got punches that are sold as lethal, a la Stan Hansen’s lariat or Aja Kong’s uraken, which they haven’t been).
i am waiting for my favorite ninja to appear…i hope she comes soon and beats some ginger child butt.
That reminds me… it is definitely possible that Chloe has outsmarted herself here. She has decided to sit back to ambush the cavalry that she is CERTAIN is coming… a cavalry that isn’t likely to appear. That means she’ll be out of position to help if Sabrina turns the tide. And we have Brooke to thank for that — if she hadn’t gotten Chloe on that thinking tangent, there might have been three Hell’s Belles at the ring right now instead of two.
I hope the ref will disqualify Needle hehe 😛
Brooke is playing with fire and Sabrina is rolling the dice that Chloe will overthink herself (which she has). I have a feeling all those times Needles gets help will backfire in the end.
Definitely a kickout will happen. This is the main event, there’s no way the match could end this early.
I’m not worried about ‘Brina either. Besides, High fliers wouldn’t be high fliers if they were counted out in the first few minutes of the match, they usually stick around to soak up double the punishment other wrestlers normally get first 😉
Hey Adon, Salazen knows his stuff. Too well sometimes. 😛 It’s hard not to notice how Jennifer is counting on Kat’s help here. Like Dawn says, its a virtual two-on-one. The more they do it, they may get closer to beating Sabrina (like right now) but if they’re not careful, it could backfire. The thing with Chloe, she’s SO sure that the Upstarts are coming. Let’s say that the Upstarts don’t show up, what sort of light will that put Brooke in the eyes of Chloe? O_o And yeah, Sabrina’s plan through Brooke is working. Sabrina only has to deal with two foes instead of three. Can you imagine what De sade would be up to if she were at ringside? *shudder* Ha ha! Stan Hansen’s lariet was incredible. Kong’s backfist is legendary too. Kat’s punch isn’t up there yet, but maybe like Kane? These days when he socks somebody, they’re left holding their jaw.
Kieran, technically speaking, Sun is the only who didn’t promise to show up at ringside. 😉
Svan, the ref is basically at his last warning with Jennifer. He won’t have any patience should he find Kat guilty of any shenanigans.
Great observations Picky. Brooke like playing with fire, LOL! One of her bosses, who happens to be engaged. Oh yeah, definite open flame. Sabrina was in a bad spot from the beginning so it was always going to involved some luck. Chloe is a schemer, perhaps she’s overthinking things?
ps2Kid, hopefully the match will continue!
Ha ha Prestwick, it’s true about high fliers. Plus, we do know that Sabrina is a tough cookie. We’ll find out very shortly if this match continues. 😉
I’ve always been impressed by those simple finishers. Yeah, I go wow at things like the Ultrasplash like anybody, but there is something to be said for that basic move that is done so well and so convincingly that nobody bats an eye when it’s called a finisher. Hansen? His lariat looked like it could take your head clean off. Kong’s backfist? Watch some of her matches on Youtube, and you can see why it’s held with reverence.
I’ve seen Kong’s backfist live and in color at the SHIMMER shows. Â She nailed this one gal pretty good and it looked like Kong was genuinely concerned. Â Lorali Lee I believe was the poor gal’s name and I think she was crying after the match. Â Hansen….geez, between the chew or the lariat, it’s a bad time either way.Â
Hansen was so stiff because he was pretty much blind and felt like he had to hit harder to make it look better. Hansen’s lariat is the stuff of legends. So many “oh man, is he dead” moments have come from the Unsinkable Battleship.
Another notoriously stiff hitter was Vader in his prime… there are numerous stories about the bruises and aching from when he hammered someone in the corner. And interestingly, one of the better stories involves both Hansen and Vader… in a match between them, Hansen’s lariat hit so hard it knocked Vader’s eye loose from its socket. And the match*continued*, with Vader’s right eye horribly swollen. That match itself was infamously brutal, with two amazingly tough men giving and receiving an amazing amount of abuse. It went to a double countout, with both fighting on the floor well after the bell.
