Chapter: Chapter 19 - The Big Night
Characters: Chloe De Sade, Gabrielle Reni, Jennifer Needles, Kat Smith, Maddie, Michael Welker, Sabrina Mancini
And here come Chloe to pick off the bones like a vulture. That giant hole that opened up underneath Sabrina has just gone a whole lot deeper. The new year has not started well for Sabrina.
Voting Incentive!
It’s the start of a new month and new year and you can help support Rival Angels by voting! By voting, you can also see what’s coming up on Wednesday, namely a moment between Chloe…and Kat.
Wa!!! Holy smoke!! Someone get in there and stop this! What is she doing!?! Attacking Sabrina now will only get Chloe disqualified before the match even starts!
And do I see a wake up moment for Kat? Is she gonna’ step in? Ai-ya! What a story this is turning into!!
hm….when it rains it pours. If this did not show how much of a rookie Sabrina is I do not know what does? Did she all of a sudden forget she had yet another match later this night against someone who would use such tactics? And I hope this answered everyone’s question…NO IT WAS NOT A DREAM! Thats what happens when you think you can do it alone…Sabrina you dumb ass baby face. Sorry Maddie but Ultra whore will still be around…hopefully with a better attitude.
And man does this further hurt Sabrina’s chances. I know she will not say I quit tonight, but she will lose by getting knocked unconscious…no plausible way in hell she can compete in a match long now after that beating in the match and after it. I do not blame Chloe….hey why not make sure your advantage sticks up towards your own match?
And I will not be folled by that preview. The Kat woman just wants her title which Chloe will give to her with no problems.
Man Sabrina’s luck starting this New Year is going like mine. Maddie needs a little dragon fire. Seriously, how insecure of a woman can you be that you revel in some poor womans suffering. Wow, the French like Chloe and even they seem to push she’s gone too far. Especially at the fight we watched. I really have to think Kat would get sick and tired of all this. I want a back story of why they stick together, cause it seems like Chloe is a loaded canon that brings nothing but trouble to Kat’s talent. I’m not saying she’d stop the heel, but she did prove her strength and talent. Chloe needs a good working over. I can’t wait till the match, but Sabrina needs as much rest as possible. The other thing it seems Chloe is quite trying to get herself kicked out of the match, We all saw the look in her face when Gabrielle annouced the fight back on between her and Sabrina. Chloe may also be working in on Kat’s win. Gabrielle really warned Kat of Chloe’s actions. On a side note, fantastic, your work is fantastic. The story has drawn us into it and gets a reaction. I was also looking through old and the art work has really grown, along with story telling. Is it Wednesday yet?
This is too over the top even for this storyline. I can’t see Sabrina getting out there for the second match, and I can’t see the Commish letting Chloe fight in that one. Which probably means you’ll do it, right?
Mo Chen will happily put on the boots!
Well De Sade has truly proved that she is a crazy and dumb witch, she just crossed the boss in a major way for a second time and they will be hell to pay. I really love to bearer of bad news for fans like BBD, but the Belles may have won the battle but their fate is sealed. Lets see division in the ranks, leader out of control, and a pissed of GM; bad omens for any stable.
If Sabrina does not get help soon things could get really bad fast, but I have a feeling that the GM will provide a nice equalizer for soon.
This is what a heel like Chloe is supposed to do. Always tilt the odds further in your favor. If people don’t remember classic stables like Devastation Inc., The Dangerous Alliance, The Hart Family (Jimmy not Calgary), Heenan’s Gang or The Four Horsemen and their opportunistic attacks you are forgetting a key part of what heel stables are about: putting the boots to any challengers.
The match will not be cancelled unless Sabrina is too far gone to compete. The crowd, which previously was nowhere near Sabrina’s corner, will be more inclined to root for the face now that Chloe has taken things this far.
Before I get into the whole Sabrina thing, let me say this again:
Episode 425
Episode 444
They are in Paris, France.
Chloe de Sade is from the mean streets of Paris, France.
Chloe de Sade has just come from nowhere to yank Katherine (who is not from Paris, France)’s title from her and whack Sabrina (who is also not from Paris, France) over the head with it. Sabrina has a match with Chloe later on.
They are booing Chloe de Sade.
Why are they booing Chloe de Sade?
Why are Rival Angels fans from Paris, France booing Chloe de Sade?
I understand that while Katherine Smith and Jennifer Needles are associated with Chloe de Sade, they are not Chloe de Sade. Yet the citizens of Paris, France are booing Chloe because they feel pity for Sabrina even though those same fans let her have it because she was facing their hometown hero.
So the power of Sabrina Mancini supersedes coming back to your hometown as a success. Are you sure this isn’t really Paris, Texas or New Paris, Indiana?
=====================
So, the long national nightmare is over. Sabrina Mancini has actually lost! Reading some of the comments, people are actually shocked by this. She’s Sabrina Mancini, not Mary Sue Mancini. That’s what happens when a high-flyer faces a power wrestler. It’s also what happens when a certain wrestler runs on odds; even them up and she is helpless. It’s no coincidence that Sabrina could overcome the odds by holding off all three Belles, yet was unable to handle one Belle in a normal match.
Huh, I see there are cracks forming in Hell’s Belles. Now all we need is Jen to interfere in Chloe’s match and everything will be complete.
BBD, to be fair to Sabrina, it’s not like she had much chance to do anything after the match. This is her only just getting up now after taking a serious bump to the back of the head.
JSN, I guess the Parisians aren’t very proud of having De Sade represent them? We saw Jen and Kat trying to help Chloe’s image in France, and Chloe didn’t bother turning up. I’ll bet she lost a lot of friends that way. Also power vs speed? Don’t get me started! In a REAL fight with no rules, power is nothing. Speed is everything. Guess you’ve bought into Vince McMahon’s ridiculous big man fetish.
Taxil Necrobane, maybe the money Chloe’s antics bring in are worth it to the Commish.
Some thoughts at 3 am:
Maddy….you and Michael deserve each other. Truly. Take your boy and ho, I mean go. (Freudian slip, yay!)
Chloe, your tights are riding up and not in a good way. Also, you just showed your alleged hometown (still not believing it) what a cheap punk you are once and for all, and I think they finally got the memo.
Gabby…one word: Gendarmes.
Kat – I actually feel for you here. You won fair and square, and here comes Miss Psycho-Diva to steal your moment. Look on this as an opportunity to score some professionalism props by tossing her wedgie’d butt out of YOUR ring.
Phillippe the Grocery Delivery Man – I really owe you, monsieur. That last bag of powdered sugar arrived just in the nick of time.
I don’t see why the hate for Maddie, she suspects that her guy has wondering eyes and instead of blaming him she blames the girl, only it’s the wrong girl. I’m sure once it’s all revealed she might be a nice torn in the side/wake up call for Brooke.
Ah it sucks to have your moment stolen. Kat won and proved that she was championship material, something Chloe hasn’t proven yet despite having pointed out who wasn’t, only to have Chloe come in and use the belt like it’s hers. Will she be going around acting like she’s a champ by proxy? This could be the start of some turbulence within a stable and the usual nasty turning on a teammate.
But she did do a smart move, taking a big risk like that. She has to get in enough crippling shots between now and when security comes to really soften Sabrina up so that their match is a proverbial walk in the part for her.
This is not good at all. Calling for security? Gads I’d kick my team mate butt if she wasn’t all ready down in the ring to do back up.
Geez, you’d think De Sade would have learned after the boss damn near fired her for her stunt in the alley. She’s certainly overstepping herself here, and that’s never a good thing. Also, she’s letting this rivalry cost her everything, her home town support, possibly her job, and by the looks of Kat in that last panel, this might even be the end of the Hell’s Belles. Kat looks like she’s actually surprised by Chloe’s sadism. (Ha HA! a pun)
I’m not a big fan of the sport, but i do like this comic. (also first time poster in here)
i have to say one thing as a owner operator of my own company. If i had a employee like chloe, i would fire her on the spot for what she is doing. After the ally incident, her back side would be on the $^&* list with me till she made up for it. If De sade kept all of her Heel antics in the ring, i would have more tolerance for it. But what her and her team did to Sabrina in the Ally is ALSO a crime that could slap her with a serious jail sentence and a felony. I would love to see serious repercusion heaped on De Sade for this. Rival Angels is a BUSINESS, and it’s “employees” are serious investments of time and money. No company is just going to let their investments get wrecked because someone has an ego problem.
The Commish was kind enough to give De Sade and her gang a warning last time, this time, she would be a fool to let them off with another warning.
Grrrrr Let me at the boy-butt-biotch, boss!
This is probably the best chapter of the comic thus far…you’ve managed to convincingly balance a couple tropes of the pro wrestling (the cheap shot; backstage drama; teasing the face turn for Kat) with the premise that it’s all real. That’s why you’re getting such strong reactions for this one.
I’m glad to see Mancini’s streak come to an end…She’s not Goldberg, and even Goldberg didn’t live up to being Goldberg.
My only criticism is that Maddie’s cold blooded reaction seriously undermines any sympathy I had for her… or maybe, as another poster mentioned, you intended to show that she and Michael are both screwed up.
Anyway, great comic, great series.
Why Chloe attack Sabrina? after the match?
answer 1: simple.. Heel!! reputation.. ‘premiere heel stable’
answer 2: humiliation!! ‘Ultragirl’ Sabrina Mancini got some nerve attacking Hell’s Belles.. 226-229.. that’s a declaration of war..
Panel 3: hahaha! love Maddie..
another think… ‘Ultragirl’ Sabrina Mancini fault too..
Sabrina challenge Chloe.. for a steel cage I quit match.. it’s Sabrina’s fault..
Voting incentives..
ahhh!! shades of ‘Evolution’!!
Love this episode..
“Hell’s Belles are haters of the universe. They have no friends.”
hmmm!! I’m a Hell’s Belles fan. also BBD.
so could be a wrong quote?
hehehe
damn Chloe must have gone plaid the moment the bell rang to get to the ring, snag the belt and clock Brina that fast. (meanwhile in the back you see Jen turning to face Chloe and get out a “Kat w..” before looking around and seeing nothing but a few scraps of paper fluttering around where Chloe used to be standing) but hey- other than the whack-er i did get this part right 🙂
also appears by the VI that Kat is a bit upset of Chloe stealing her moment. almost looks like Chloe’s about to try to pull a “you’re a Belle, i lead the Belles, therefore your belt is my belt.” line on Kat. Does Kat take it? i don’t see her stepping in for Brina’s sake after all- i think she just wants her belt.
Now new scenario just popping into my head. could it be that Chloe wanted Kat to join in days past, but Kat wouldn’t? Then Chloe destroys Jen in a match and threatened to cripple her unless Kat gave in and joined up (with jen coming along to seal the deal since Kat wouldn’t abandon her). would explain why Chloe holds Jen in so much contempt since she never wanted her in the Belles anyway but is necessary baggage to bring Kat into the fold.
but now the wrath of Gabby must be faced. i’m at the point where i think SHE pulls Brina out of the match now to spite Chloe (who would then have no match at the PPV and in front of the two or three fans she hasn’t ticked off completely yet) and the buy rates be damned (cause they’ve already been bought after all so it doesn’t affect the bottom line anymore). suspensions don’t seem to work- Gabby could fire her and then Chloe shows up every week in the crowd to interfere anyway /Cenaoff. or does Marina try to step in and avenge her protege in her place? (and get destroyed by Chloe cause she is the Big Bad here after all)
Wow, Chloe, insecure about your own match much? No need to take her out before it starts, it just makes you look weak. Not to mention takes away from your teammate’s moment. Let Kat have her belt, please. *She* earned it.
This right here proves how much of an idiot Chloe really is. In the referees eyes she can be acting on behalf of Kat. And if the referee things this goes way too far post match, he could reverse the decision costing Kat the championship through no fault of her own. Not an intelligent move at all…
No, the decision would not be reversed because the action happened after the match. Doing so would make Sabrina a pity champion. Terrible move if that were done.
Oh wow some one has fliped the insanity swtich in chloe maybe she is related to Napoleon as well but with this it seems Bree might catch a reprive as chloe is terminated from the RA roster
Chloe just snaped! Maybe to much anger toward Brina. She even didnt need that, Brina was already really weak. This could be bad for them, disqualification for Chloe before her match?.. or even for Kat? depending how the ref is seeing this. Wonder if Kat will stop Chloe… mmmm SO many possibilities…. maybe Brina friends will come help her. If i was Kat I would be angry agains Chloe, she won that match after all. Good plot and action here Albone 😀 Love it. Dont go to hard on Brina please lol 😛
Well, even though I predicted Sabrina to beat Kat and got it wrong, I still saw this coming. Chloe just uses every cheap tactic in the book on Sabrina, and she pretty much hated Brina the moment she went in Rival Angels for no reason. Even Kat is saying this is enough.
Actually, you think Kat would ever turn face, maybe bring Jen with her? I could see it if they had enough of Chloe being a bitch. Or just an ego thing, like hey, that’s my belt that i earned and fought hard for, this isn’t about you. I could see Hell’s Belles breaking up eventually like most stables do.
Yeesh, you know it’s bad when Kat is like, “chill out.”
Whoa! Another big update for discussion!
Dyna, I totally understand your confusion and outrage, and your questions about Kat. It is THE drag about only able to update 3X a week.
BBD, I think ‘that’s what happens when you think you can do it alone,’ had me stitches. I will say though, that it’s the thinking that had Sun join Damage Inc.
Vekara, there’s going to be more Maddie, and more Sabrina-hating before this night is over. The French fans aren’t stupid. They like who they like, and that tells you how obnoxious De Sade is if even she gets booed in her hometown. I don’t know that Chloe is trying to get her match with Sabrina thrown out, but it’s a good question if she would gladly take a forfeit. More to Kat, Chloe and the Belles on Wednesday.
Darkmark, not to ruin anything but it’s only going to get worse for Sabrina. Gabrielle will be definitely looking for Chloe after this.
jabberwocky, pandemonium is rampant right now but you can be sure that when things finally calm down, Gabrielle will have something to say. Hopefully, it won’t be at the expense of Sabrina’s career.
Picky, love the old school heel stable mentions there. Gots to have ’em. The main event with Sabrina and Chloe might be in danger depending on how long this beatdown continues.
JSN, it’s probably safe to say that not the entire crowd is booing De Sade. Just the non-mark/non-sheep portion. As you can see, we’re getting more specific comments from the crowd deploring the actions more than the person. But hey, Maddie is on your side.
Cookie Ogre, I really love the advice you give to Kat and her ring. Good irony for what’s coming on Wednesday. 😉 Much love to Phillippe!
Hey SotC! Lots going on here, including some chaos in the skybox. Kat does look miffed doesn’t she? Chloe is one to consider any success by others to be hers as well. Softening up Sabrina is true heel, but will it cost her more in the long run?
Hey Snowy! I know you have sense, but the Belles are probably the furthest away from ‘sense’ than they have been in a long time. And Kat just won the belt!
Ronin, it seems that Chloe likes to do things her way, unless she’s sitting in front of Gabrielle. She’s mortgaging everything to win out against Sabrina which is saying a lot. What will Kat have to say on Wednesday?
Hello Taxi! Glad you joined in the conversation. Gabrielle has developed a short fuse thanks to actions like these and even she is only going to allow things to go so far in the name of ‘business’ and ‘ratings.’
Brenda, I think that’d be a great idea, but I think Gabrielle would have a heart attack if you got involved. Of course, after the match…
Hey Acoleth, I’m glad you are enjoying the show! The streak is something hard to keep going, unless you’re champion Anderson Silva and your last loss was in 2006. Maddie does seem to be misguided, doesn’t she? It would be pretty big if she learns the truth, especially before her wedding day!
MGC, I think you, JSN, and BBD are the heel group of the comments. XD Every stable has their bumps. Even Sun and Sabrina fight with each other.
lol jpiv! That’s a pretty funny visual of Jen and Chloe in the back as Kat won the belt. XD I’m hoping to show how Kat and Chloe formed the Belles but it’s all about how much space I have to work with it during the PPV. I think I can do it in a way that isn’t too long but gets the point across. Your idea with Gabrielle and Chloe has me lolz.
Hey Lora! Yeah, Chloe’s actions are saying tons. Her hometown and Kat seem to have finally had enough.
RAWF, I think Chloe would argue that she is ‘passionate.’ 😛 If the ref knows what’s good for her, she’ll be out of the ring. The Belles have a rep for after match festivities, of course, something like this might be bringing that to an end.
Comichero, I’m not sure that the switch had to be flipped, I think it’s always been on, like a dial. It’s definitely been turned up. And Chloe’s not done yet.
Svan, definitely some anger issues with Chloe. Gabrielle is going to want to speak with Chloe after this one. Glad you’re enjoying the show! More of it on Wednesday. 😉
Hey Ken, we kind of know how Chloe rolls. It’d be a surprise if she didn’t attack, eh? But now Kat’s not too pleased and Chloe doesn’t seem to care. As for what would happen with a Hell’s Belles split, I encourage you to read on.
LOL @ Chris!
All that being said, boss man… it is a great looking episode. JC even said he thought that the first panel was the um… ‘hottest’ Chloe’s eva’ looked (his words). Ai-ya, he such… a… a… hou zhi de pigu (monkey’s butt). But, there is something to be said for looking lovely when angry I guess…
So how much worse is it going to get for Brina? Are you going to kill her???
Wednesday’s update will give you the answers you are looking for. The Belles playbook is deep.
Agree with Mo here. The art is right on the button. Great dynamics. Wonderful expressons.
I might have missed something from not reading the comments from the last page but it looked like sabrina might have grabed the rope before the three count. If this is the case then Kat just lost the match because of disqualifcation. IF this is the case then De Sade owes her team an explanation.
Never mind My last post I just looked back at the pages again. I am an idiot.
Dyna, I like to think I’m getting better all the time. XD
Thanks again, Champ. 🙂
No worries, darkhand. I think it says more about how you wish things would’ve went down than anything else, and there’s a lot of readers here who share that same sentiment. So, you’re in good company.
Albone did you get the email I sent? I don’t know what yours is so I sent it to the address in the “About” section. was that ok?
I did get it and I read through it once (great ending) and I want to pass through it again a time or two and give you some feedback. All in all, well done.
I think when they say “Ring the bell” or “Getting your bell rung” they usually don’t mean with the hardware of a Championship belt… I mean even with the price of Gold the way it is, it’s still a soft metal… and now it’s a collector’s item with Sabrina’s face implanted into it…
Do I smell an ejection from the match between her and Sabrina? Possibly full on suspension from Rival Angels?
Kurt, I know what you’re smelling and the tinge of suspension might be in the air, along with fines, and other sanctions. And yeah, the TV title belt has a dent in it now, courtesy of Sabrina’s temple!
Sun is so far showing to be the smartest of the upstarts then. I hope she continues to use those smarts then when the time is right she even dumps then to get to the top. You do not get to the top in a group and there is only 1 world champ. I hope Sun also knows this as well, but she better watch herself as well.
And I revel at being considered a heel. I learned at a very young age to love them while everyone else bood them. They make the business, they are what makes story lines interesting.
Now Kat’s going to totally get DQed and the win will go to Sabrina by default. Or I don’t know anything about sports.
If Sabrina’s push is to survive, that cannot happen. Getting a title due to a DQ or other non-clean win is bad for faces. The character’s legitimacy is called into question. While not a big deal for heels, a questionable face is on shaky ground.
Also, Katherine had nothing to do with the attack, Chloe did and the action all occurred after the fact. The only thing that should happen is Chloe being sent packing for awhile.
Agreed. Though Kat could, and should, get flak for the crotch-kicking, she didn’t put Chloe up to beating Sabrina with the belt. Chloe, however, should get a suspension for this one.
MGC, BBD, and JSN as our heel-commenters? It’s only a time before they form a stable, get matching jackets, and pose mightily! I’m torn, though, should we call them Hell’s Bulls or the Acronyms of Doom?
Err only a MATTER of time… Curse you, lack of an edit button!
I’ve really underestimated Chloe – she’s a LOT stupider than I thought…
I see Kat is trying to contact Chloe – probably wants her to stop getting blood on her new belt!
I’m surprised that Chloe is able to hit Sabrina twice before a certain Ninja shows up.
Gabrielle ought to teach Chloe a lesson – you mess with the card, and the card messes with you: Three way battle royal for the TV championship – Kat VS Chloe VS Jennifer… That should keep the fans on the edge of their seats!
Sounds like a good match, but you know how heel stables can be, put them in a match like that, and they’ll find a way to make it cheap, though after this match, Kat just might want to get her hands on Chloe for stealing the spotlight (and possibly the belt) from her. Jennifer’s going to be faced with a hard decision if this does cause a crack in the Hell’s Belles. She really hasn’t shown much of an independant personality, so would she stick with the old boss, Chloe, or go with her close friend, Kat?
Hokay… Mo Chen going on limb here. Maybe Bossman’s hint about the Belle’s playbook may pan out – but I also thought there were hints of new girls coming to RA soon, including some possible very bad ones to add to the roster.
Maybe… just maybe Chloe and Kat do have a falling out… and maybe Chloe gets her claws in one of the new girls to replace Powergirl?
I always thought of Kat should be like Randy Orton. She’s mostly all business, tough as nails, straight up harsh. Maybe, she should go solo like Orton is.
