Page 399 – Indefinitely
Jul16
You can’t have thunder without the lighting and this is the thing that Chloe and Hell’s Belles were fearing when they fled from the alleyway. Jen and Chloe suspended and Sabrina laid up is not good for anyone.
399 pages in a row with no missed updates!! Can I get a ‘hell yeah?’ XD What have been some of your favorite moments? What have been the biggest surprises? What are you looking forward to next?

Discussion (34) ¬
Today lesson for the Belles, you cross the Big Boss and you can kiss your career and visas goodbye. Glad to see some of my guessing was right that Kate was stripped of her title shot, could a Dragon and certain Canadian dynamite be good replacements for that fight?
I had to laugh at the last panel Chloe looks like she going to snap and attack someone, knowing her its possible, but it looks like the Belles finally got an over due reality check. It will be interesting to see how Chloe reacts in private with Jen and Kate after this. If she snaps on either one that could mark the being of the end of the stable, cause I think we know who Kat or Jen will side with if they have to pick sides.
HELL YEAH! Congrats, boss. You’re the real champ here. That’s quite a record, and I really don’t know how you do it. But I’m sure glad you do.
It’s good to see the Belles get theirs. I loved the deportation thing best of all. That’s putting them in their place hehee
Edit due to mind gap: I was wrong in Kat being stripped of her title shot and misread who was suspended, besides that I was right lol. Oh well, grats on the perfect streak and maybe I get one detail about Monday’s update right lol >.<
Hell yeah, Boney!
But I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Don’t threaten, do. I’m sure I’m not the only fan who would thank Gabrielle for deporting Chloe, just to drive home the fact that she’s seriously pissed about their actions.
Ah, good, I was half-expecting a swerve to happen as I mentioned on Wednesday but it didn’t and I’m happy about that. I think I’ve been watching too much TNA, hehe.
But yeah, that backfired a little bit on the Belles and I’m definitely interested on what the reactions to this will be.
Also, as per your request, “Hell yeah,” hehe.
The amount of updates in your streak is amazing. Kudos on the work, Al!
Chloe won’t be deported, yet. She still gets butts in the seats but she needs to remember her place and that is exactly what Gabrielle is reminding Chloe of at this juncture.
You do not screw with the buy rates.
Wa! I admit I was totally shock to hear the boss say that. And why only suspend TWO of the Belles? I’m guess is because of PPV contract, or do she have something else in mind?
Woohoo
I agree with what’s been said already. Yes, Sabrina needed to be taken down a notch or two. But 1. Rookies kinda need to be a little cocky to be going anywhere in their career, and 2. The helles belle’s were definitely NOT the ones to do it.
I am curious as to why Kat managed to avoid the ban-hammer. IS it because all she really did was throw a punch, and jen and chloe were the ones who did the face-to-pavement and arm-to-dumpster brutallity? Or did those camera’s have sound recording, and they caught her trying to end it?
Either way. Very interesting developement.
First PPV in this comic where the main characters will participate in two matches, and before it’s able to be realized, it’s gone! Wow. Is Russo co-write the story ?
Oh and for the 399 continuous update ………. HELL YEAH!!!
Hell Yeah! Indeed.
Nice to see a commissioner with cajones, ironic though that metaphor is in the circumstances. Probably my favourite part so far was the Sabrina/Xtina match which was enjoyably intense 🙂
Well it is great to see that someone will get punished. I am in favor to each of them having to fight alone against us Catgirls. I’m sure we could meet out a nice punishment for them.
<cues the Mr. Perfect theme for Albone’s streak> hmm favorite parts? TSUNAMI comes to mind. Krystin’s development has been interesting as we’ve finally seen behind the mask of “I’m def tech and i’m better than you!” with her family on the phone and Gabby in recent updates. Gabby’s evil plotting behind the scenes (well we think it’s evil…mostly…). Darth Yvonne ;P
you know Chloe knows she’s screwed in panel 2 when she can;t meet Gabby eye to eye, even Jen’s a bit surprised about that. You’d think with jen around Chloe would have a better idea of the firey temper redheads are known for. though Jen’s pretty mousey compared to Chloe and Kat i have to say.
i’m guessing Kat gets off the hook because she was the only one of the three actually saying “enough” in the alley (assuming some survailance footage has been viewed between that night and this meeting). Chloe and jen were were the ones trying to keep it going. either that or Gabby’s telling Kat she got off the hook because she needed some part of the main event to stay up and running.
Sun to replace Brina in the finals as part of Gabby’s payback. Or Xtina being the one Brina beat to get to the finals. given the tensions between the two at the part a Xtina win sets up the perfect feud when Brina’s healed- seeing how they still don;t get along. “You only won Xtina because i couldn’t compete, because if you recall when we fought in the semis. I BEAT YOU!”
Hell Yeah!
Chloe and the Belles should be glad they’re not up on assault charges, given that their attack was ‘real’ and not kayfabe. The commish is justified in being as ticked off as she is, but probably should have been keeping better tabs on what was going on with her employees.
Can’t say too many webcomics have done that. Don’t think I have seen any guest strips for a week either.
This is realistically what would happen. However, as this is wrestling I fully expect to see Sabrina come back and say she still wants the match, and for Gabrielle to grant it thinking of PPV buyrates.
Panel 4: Kat VS Jennifer.. I would pay to see that… remember Katherine said “I know your weak spot”
Kat said “Jennifer is a championship material.”
I really like to know if it’s true…
but I think it would be like DX. Shawn Michael VS Triple H. as Shawn Michaels acted like he loss and just laid down.. for the pin.
panel 5: revoking Chloe’s work visa..
Chloe had a penthouse, but she’s not an american citizen..
voting incentives.. Jennifer Needles, crying..
I would say big mistake on Gabrielle.. Heaven and Hell will be in Paris, France.. then no Chloe De Sade.. that will booo Rival Angels.. think of it like european football. it will cause a riot… and surely Gabrielle will be booo’ed out, Gabrielle and Sabrina..
here’s one Q..
I would like to know Chloe’s backstage power at works…
and surely i will be disappointed.. for a years.. I really like to see Chloe wrestle.. then Gabrielle suspending Chloe.. Booooo!!
Heck Yeah! ::offers up a sacrifice of peanut butter daisies (w/dark chocolate) as a sacrifice::
Favorite moments? Gads, it’s hard to pick. Every appearance of Gabrielle? What I’ve liked best about this comic, Albone, is that it’s opened up the world of wrestling for me in a way I can both enjoy and relate to. It’s still a bit cheesy and suffering from testosterone poisoning, but the wrestlers are much more entertaining to watch. 😉
Now then… ::clears his throat:: STRAPPY BOOO-OOOTS, HEY! STRAPPY BOOTS! STRAPPY BOOOO-OOOTS, HEY! These boots were made for ownage, that’s what they’re gonna do! Boot To The Head, nyah nyah, Boot To The Head, nyah nyah! Oh yes, I’ve been waiting for this. 🙂
The deportation WAS a nice touch, but I also agree with the “don’t threaten, do” line. Or……to save on postage – no wait, wrong evil scheme. Why not give MGC and Chloe a compromise? Give Chloe the option of taking a punishment match at Heaven and Hell. Set her up a 2-on-1 hardcore match against the Catgirls, with the warning that if she doesn’t put on a good show without crossing over the line again, she gets left behind in Paris when RA goes home again. Jennifer and Kat, of course, will be handcuffed to their seats for the duration. ::evil grin:: The French get their hometown girl to root for, Gabby still gets something to fill out Heaven and Hell with, and the Catgirls get carte blanche to make Chloe suffer. What do you think, Snowy?
I really like to see.
Chloe applied a sweet agony on Gabrielle Reni, as Jennifer and Katherine mocked Gabrielle..
just for fun..
🙂
HELLZ YEAH!!!
At least there are unrehearsed matches, not like real professional wrestling.
wait a minute…
Hell’s Belles.. still got Angel Soprano in it.. even Jennifer Needles suspended.. CHloe could used Angel Soprano..
to make i more dangerous… since Heaven and Hell in France.. there’s a possibility of Heaven and Hell being cancel.. since Chloe might pulled some strings in France.. she’s not in the main event.. so might as well no Heaven and Hell..
Gabrielle’s authority now being challenge..
wow!!!
400! 400! 400! 400! 400! 400!
Hell Yeah!
jabberwocky, thanks on the streak and yeah, Kat’s fate has not been determined yet. The Voting Incentive might shed a little light on it though. Yes, Chloe does want to snap on someone but she knows it’s that kind of thinking that got her into trouble in the first place. I think you’ll find the next update interesting. 😉
Thanks Champ! I have a lot of good supporters. 😉 Chloe’s here on visa so it’s definitely a solid threat by Gabrielle. The boss has finally laid the smack down.
Tarrasque, I know that Gabrielle is *this* close from deporting De Sade but she’s expecting indefinite suspension will cure what ails. As a whole Rival Angels is a pretty lenient place but action had to be taken against the Belles.
Hey Chris! Heh, you never know when a swerve will creep up on ya. 😉 I’ve heard that TNA is all sorts of crazy right now at least from the reports I read. Yay for RVD as champ though.
Thanks Picky! Y’know that’s putting it perfectly, ‘don’t screw with the buyrates.’ Hopefully something like this will get across to the Belles that there is a line that shouldn’t be crossed. I wonder how the rest of the locker room will react to what the Belles did to Sabrina and their punishment.
DynaMoChen, good question on why Gabrielle hasn’t suspended Kat. I promise we will find out very, very shortly. 😉
Hey Adder! Kat’s fate will be sorted out very shortly, along with Gabrielle’s reasons. Like Gabrielle said, she keeps them around because they’re wolves but their behavior lately has been like dogs.
PS2kid, we always seem to be at cross opinions. I really liked some of Russo’s booking like making Booker T champ. XD Ah, but still time before the PPV for…well, you’ll see. 😉
Majere, I’m glad you enjoyed Gabrielle’s ‘stones’ as well as the Xtina/Sabrina match. That was pretty intense.
Snowy, putting them in a 2 on 1 individually against the Catgirls would be cruel and unusual punishment, so obviously Gabrielle would like it. XD
jpiv, love the music. LOL Thanks for sharing some of your favorite moments. 🙂 Gabrielle is going to explain her reasons for what she’s got in mind for Kat. I think it’s going to reinforce the perception we have of Gabrielle, especially for what she has in mind for the PPV. We’ve seen Chloe beg off and run away but this is the first time we’ve seen without an outlet to vent her rage. I like the Xtina/Sabrina scenario you laid out. 😉
Hey Zodo! Gabrielle wanted to handle this ‘in-house’ and she’s banking on this punishment sending the right message to the rest of the roster, especially the Belles.
Ken, no guest strips yet, but I think sometime they’ll appear. Eventually. XD We know Sabrina is a gamer but we’ll see what she has to say after the doctor’s prognosis. You’re not so far off the mark with Gabrielle. 😉
Ah MGC, I knew this would be a rollercoaster of emotions for you. Sabrina hospitalized by the Belles and then the Belles serving suspensions. Chloe’s got a similar situation as Shamus and Drew McIntyre. As for Chloe’s backstage power, you’re seeing it. Chloe and Jen have been suspended but you have to think there still going to be around. Maybe even working to get reinstated and in Gabrielle’s good graces? The PPV is still on as there’s still some great matches. It just looks like Chloe’s going to miss headlining in her home city. I know Angel would love to be in Hell’s Belles but they’re not returning her calls.
Yay Cookie Ogre and the treats! lol Thanks too for sharing your fav moments and your love of Gabrielle. You should be happy that she’s going to be seen a bit more around here. Is there any question that she’s the boss after this? XD Gabrielle knows that the threat of deportation is enough to keep Chloe in line. After all, Chloe is quite popular. I think anytime you involve the Catgirls you’re going to see something special. XD And as far as Chloe’s hometown popularity, it’s there, but only because she’s not physically there. XD
Thanks AJ! Glad you’re digging Rival Angels. 🙂
W00t James!! XD
Rival Angels for the Win! Hell Yeah! Great job on 399 pages so far!
Favorite parts: I still like the four way upstart head basher ball best, there was a lot of back and forth and you never knew which way it was going to go. Sabrina’s last match was great. Sun saving Sabrina was also a classic. I love the stealth ninja butt-kicking Sun unleashed. And today’s page – Gabrielle yelling so load she’s practically spitting.
But my best favorite part are the other folks leaving comments: M.G.C., Cookie Ogre, The Champ, Snowy, and all. I like the talking back and forth and the advent of the exclusive Ogrino-Mist.
One more for the road: Hell Yeah!!!
Wow, though Hell’s belle will get away with. They got what they deserve but Sabrina still injured, Hope she get well and recovered quickly.
Thanks GhostEraser, here’s hoping I make it to page 400. XD Thanks for sharing the high with us. It especially helps me know what’s working. I also agree with one of the most favorite parts is our little community here. We don’t always agree but I think that’s part of the fun.
Adam, lots has happened in just a few pages and a lot more is about to happen. Dig it.
excellant comic guys and gals wi dont know whom is drawing and adn writing this gold up but Kudos to you goo folks and thanks for shareing just got cuaght up to day and cant wait for more you have your self a fan
I’d make those three wrestle every stupid wet & messy gimmick match that I could think of if I was a commissioner….
“Do we have enough frat boys?”
Hey Comichero! Nice gravatar pic. I’m so happy that you are enjoying the comic, and it’s mostly me but I get help from my buddy Justin on the plotting and editing. I hope to see you some more in the comments. 🙂
Coel, I bet there’s a few readers what would definitely love that idea. I could think of a few sticky gimmick matches…
Surprised I didn’t write something before this. 399 is a satisfying page. Glad the boss gave the Belles hell. I’m wondering what you have in store for 400. Thanks for the great and consistent work.
Can’t wait for Monday, Mr. Alan! Mo Chen has been poking into the forums some. Is great stuff out there… and Brenda, you invitation for a little practice match with Mo Chen sounds great.
I am curious as to why your world title is not in the main event and have your rookie wrestle 2 matches. That is a ridiculous push in the way of The Undertaker and most recently Sheamus. Suspensions were alright I guess. But I agree with what other people have said, why would you take the city favorite out of the PPV? Sabrina can not already be that ridiculously over already.
Anyway, cant wait for Monday. I have been enjoying this comic I happened to stumble upon since a week or 2 back. keep up the good work.
Darkmark, I am glad that you are pleased with the update. 🙂 Thanks for reading.
DynaMoChen, I think Monday’s update is going to give us a larger, more detailed picture of Gabrielle. I’m happy that you are enjoying the boards. That’s what they’re there for!
Thanks BBD! Well, Sabrina’s not in the main event anymore. XD But seriously, it was always meant to be a co-main event. Like you said, the hometown De Sade would summon quite the crowd. But Chloe had to pay for her actions, at least in Gabrielle’s mind. “Chloe screwed Chloe.” Sabrina’s definitely not over quite yet at least in main eventing PPV’s on her own. It’s why she’s not been seen running with the major players like Brenda, Black Widow, Black and Blue, Victoria Buckingham or the rest.
