Page 238 – Swerve
Swerve! I like to think that Amanda Breaker turning on Monica was a surprise to everyone, especially Monica. Poor Monica!! Once again, she’s laid out at the hands of Brooke, though Amanda really did most of the work. Well, her and the ring bell. However, the bag over the head was all Brooke’s idea. And in the end, it seems like Brooke has herself a new friend. What do you think her roommates will make of this?
Next update: TV Tournament match between Victoria Buckingham and Hell’s Belles member, Katherine Smith!

Yeesh. I’m sorry, but unless Monica gets to do SOMETHING to get her heat back, she seems to have become the designated girl to beat down. I mean — every single time she’s been out she’s been laid out by a cheap shot. Once evokes sympathy. Twice, you wince. Third time? She just begins to look pathetic. I’m not sure if that’s your intent, but if a wrestler gets beat down consistently, people will be justified in seeing them as members of the job-squad. That’s how it’s looking from this angle anyway.
Wow! Didn’t see THAT coming! Poor Monica, she deserved better. Now I’m pretty sure she’ll be pissed off by all these tricks because, in a real match, I think she can beat most of the girls… But she has to make friends to cover her back first!
Anyway, good job with the change of Breaker, that was unexpected 😉
damnit amanda! pick on someone your own size!! im sure theres a circus nearby that has a spare elephant or something.
Â
Lets get some more people down here on the meatballs side, turn this into a nice big brawl
lol, good revarsal of situation Albone, i didnt see that either. 😛
Aha! My guess is correct afterall. Well … half-correct actually, as it did end up with Amanda being knocked out cold AGAIN, but it was Amanda Breaker who did it not Aphrodite.
Love that “brown bag treatment”. Aphrodite & Amanda Breaker could be the Rival Angels version of TNA’s Beautiful People.
That’s just rude… And ditto the comments above. Tag team opportunity number 2: Amanda & Brooke versus Monica and Ultragirl.
Hey, any chance we could see Amanda pile drive Vincent?
Awesome. Aphrodite has a follower. Notice who is directing that traffic, after all. She played it perfectly too. Poor Monica Rattles. After as many blows to the head as she’s taken, something got to be loose in there by now. 😀
Good swerve with Amanda too. I approve, and great calls by the ref. He can’t call what he can’t see.
Now, two points of interest…. 1: I wonder if this will be like when Curt Henning blasted Nick Bockwinkle for the AWA title with a loaded fist, just before taking the name Mr. Perfect. If so, we can look forward to Monica getting even with something equally dicy and the ref calling in her favor this time because he didn’t see it.
2: Is anyone else amused that Brooke’s biggest fan in the early strips now seems to hate her, and the fellow that was most vocal about how she was nothing but boobs and wasted ink is now an Aphrodite supporter?
Oh and we won’t likely see and Ultra-Mini team, until there’s been a match between them. Monica still thinks Sabrina turned her back on the shrimp. Silly thing.
Well Grrrrrrr! And a double Hmmph too! If this is a partnership then there’s a load of trouble coming down the road for a lot of folk. I’m thinking it’s time to tip a couple of cows before they get some momentum going.
Well, that was different. ::sends Monica some ginger & clove cookies, they help with pain, sorta:: I may have to bump my estimate of Brooke’s intelligence up a notch. I knew she had some low cunning, but I didn’t expect her to have any foresight or planning ability. Granted, she’s still mainly low cunning, but maybe she’ll survive to see the tournament. I wonder if this alliance (which I’m going to call as very temporary right now) is going to affect Amanda’s chances of joining the Belles. On one hand, very much their kind of tactics on both Brooke and Amanda’s parts (particularly the bell-shot). On the other, Brooke was helping Sabrina taunt them earlier this evening. ::grabs the popcorn:: So, what’s next on the card?
Awesome, you realy surprised me with that one :P.
Page 234 last pannel: Remmeber the face Brook did when she saw Breaker appear…. thats mean that was totaly a fake to lure her ennemy AWESOME again 😀 Brook is a real machiavel and a great actress. She realy got a lot of kudo for that one 🙂
Very cool!
Woah, no MGC post? Â I hope he’s okay.Â
Great observation, Adon. Â It’s true. Â Monica HAS to do something and blaming all of this on Sabrina isn’t going to cut it. Â Monica is going to be at a crossroad. Â We might never see her again, or she’ll have to do something special to get her heat back.
Jul, I am glad that I was able to surprise you with the Breaker swerve! Â Yay. XD Â Monica actually IS a very good wrestler but like Sara Valentine, has had some rough luck. Â Maybe something to do with these Upstart girls?Â
Ha ha, T-M! Â More the merrier, eh? Â It’s a pretty big mismatch there, Amanda and Monica. Â Maybe that’s why they used to be friends? Â Opposites attract and all of that.Â
Hey Vanessa, glad the swerve was unexpected. Â I wonder what else I can surprise you with? Â Hmmmm….. 😉
ps2kid, and just like The Beautiful People, Brooke and Breaker have the potential to be unstoppable. Â You were one of the closest to guess what would happen with Monica, so mad points for you. XDÂ
LOL GhostEraser! Â It’d be pretty cool if Amanda piledrove Vincent. Â Look for his return in a few chapters. 😉 Â That’s a pretty good tag team match, made moreso because Monica and Sabrina aren’t really talking right now.Â
Hey Salazen! Â Glad you liked the events of late, means I’m doing something right. 😀 Â Good catch there too with Brooke running the floor. Â Kind of scary, eh? Â Breaker on this side, Michael on the other. Â Brooke might not be as braindead as once reported! Â Ah man! Â I remember the Bockwinkel/Henning stuff and the roll of quarters. Â That had to do with Zybesko too right?
Ha ha, Champ! Â That is hilarious! Â Brooke outdid herself with this one and they’ve got to be considered to be a force to be reckoned with. Â
Very nice of you Cookie Ogre, to spread the wealth on the hurt. Â Brooke can surprise you if you underestimate her. Â And, she’s just getting started with Amanda at her side and Michael backing her up. Â Next up: Victoria Buckingham vs Kat Smith and then the tag team match! Â What surprises are in store? Â O-o
Right you are, Svan. Â Brooke was feigning fear when Amanda first came out and played Monica from the get-go. Â You could say, that it all went according to plan.
Thanks Jamie!
You’re welcome.
Yes, it did. Bockwinkle saw the handshake where the roll of coins was passed, so he blamed Zybesko for his losing. He got a match against the Living Legend, and returned the favor. Laid him out. They had the same ref as the title match had had too. When Bockwinkle was picking up coins and dropping them in the KOed Zybesko’s face, the ref asked if Bockwinkle had used a loaded fist. Nick admitted to it and the ref repeated the ‘I can’t call it if I didn’t see it’ line and gave Nick the win.
Did not see that coming. I wonder how Brooke got Amanda Breaker to work for her. Does she have a lot of money stashed away, or what?
Raise your hand if you think that we need an 8 (wo)man elimination chamber here, put She-kong (Amanda), GoDDess Brooke, Meatball Monica, Ultra-brina, Def-Tech Krystin, Slu-erm… Sara, Super Sun and Need-i-say-more De Sade in an unescapable metal monstosity where you dont win, you simply try and survive. 8 women enter, maybe one will be able to walk out.
Â
It sells itself! Do it Al . . . you know that you want to . . . give in to your dark side. Dooooooooooooo iiiiiiiiiiiiit
I think I saw that coming…poor Monica Mayhem. If she the Rey Mysterio of Rival Angels?
M.G.C. is back…
damn! hotel wireless ! I almost missed update on Rival Angels..
(Beauty and beast) ‘GoDDess Aphorite’ Brooke Lennox and Amanda Breaker.. is Amanda already planned this out to betray ‘Mighty’ Monica Rumble? or Amanda Breaker don’t like Monica Rumble, like episode 235.. Amanda Breaker calling Monica Rumble ‘Shorty’?
A tag team that can stop Amanda Breaker and ‘Aphrodite’ Brooke Lennox are the Catgirls..
now since Brooke Lennox got backup.. I wonder Brooke and Amanda will challenge Sun and Sabrina?
What’s inside that bag? it gives me chills and bit scary if ‘GoDDess Aphrodite’ Brooke Lennox flex her muscle.. all it’s shows it’s boobs not muscle..
thanks T-M
for more Chloe De Sade.. I’ll raise hand.. in that 8 angels elimination, Chloe De Sade will be the winner on that match..
in an elimination chamber, I like to see.. ‘Celt Warrior’ Brenda Rua VS ‘White Queen’ Chloe De Sade, ‘Powergirl’ Katherine Smith VS Jennifer Needles VS Monica Rumble VS Shannon McCourt..
I like to see, Monica Rumble and Sabrina Mancini in a tag team.. maybe we’ll see that..heheeh
Why did Amanda Breaker betrayed Monica? is it because Monica said “People like Amanda and I” in which Amanda thought Monica saying Amanda is ‘Shorty’ (People like Amanda and I)?
Salazen, I knew it! Â That’s just about the time that I really got into pro wrestling. Â That’s hilarious that Bockwinkel confessed and still won. XDÂ
Ken, we will establish how Brooke got Amanda to work for her, but it definitely wasn’t money. Â 😉
Ah T-M, I like how you think. Â Elimination chamber!! Â I’m still toying around with whether or not I can do a proper cage if the opportunity presents itself, but its an awesome idea.Â
Prestwick, yeah, that’s a pretty good analogy. Â She’s probably the shortest angel around, though probably pretty close to Lil Alex. Â
Welcome back, MGC! Â It was all pre-planned from before Brooke went out for the open challenge. Â Nothing inside the bag, though it’d be pretty interesting to see if there was! Â Now that Brooke and Breaker are together, there’s no telling what they’re going to do. Â They’d make a pretty big splash in the tag team division, wouldn’t they?

hey MGC, where are you? why you are in an hotel??
wireless internet not best, specialy in hotel, but its nice to still have a connexion outside our home, remember me some army trip at ottawa i did last years 😉
The next match will be awesome, probably Katherine Smith will win, Hells Belles need a victory
@Svan
my current location is confidencial.. hehehhe!
I’m in the hotel, coz I’m waiting for the WWE tour.. next week.. heheheh
crowd signs ready! hahaah! but wireless connection here is good if it’s working. not like monday.. my laptop sucks.. piff..
If brooke didnt buy amandas help, is brooke like a tennis racket . . . swinging both ways?
Â
Weve already established that shell do anything to get ahead in the business, maybe shell do a bit of overtime with amanda to get someone even mmore powerful and more experienced on her side
Â
Also, Al if you blur the cage a bit when its in the background, like its out of focus or something, then i think it could work ok. Theres so much potential there, its got to be exploited, its just too good a match to pass off.
I smell some Hell Bellies behind this set up… Amanda and Brooke both want in, so they’re open to any little suggestion from De Sot. Smacking Monica upside the head (again) is another poke at Sabrina, putting her at odds with Brooke (again) and now Amanda Break-a-cake. I don’t think Brooke has the brains to pull this off by herself – including recruiting Amanda. Brooke just doesn’t have that kind of pull – unless Michael the marshmallow boy is pulling a few strings. If he is, you know that the Commissioner knows it, and may be laying her own trap, since he only got hired because he’s somebody’s nephew.
Or something like that…
Â
Someone should seriously drop Brooke on her head.
i remember this in WWE, putting bags on heads. and Aphrodite was channeling Rick Rude
I got the bags thing from the Beautiful People in Impact, but it’s such a fun bit regardless.
