As you can see, ANYTHING can happen. Lover Lola, Zombie Luna and manager Johann are not happy with being left off of the pay-per-view.
With fan-favorites Sabrina and now the Catgirls losing, will things continue to turn poorly for Sun, Brenda and Sabrina’s match with Chloe?
Anime Central!
This weekend, May 20-22, I’ll be at my first ever Anime Central in Chicago! I hear it’s a fantastic show and my expectations are high for a fun show. If you’re going to be there, please stop by and say HI!
Voting Incentive!
The tag team champs are not enjoying their post-victory. Vote to see what’s coming up on Wednesday!
What a surprise….that catgirls shot their mouths off at the awards and lost. Tsk tsk tsk when you say something, back it up. tag team of the year? Wow what an undeserving accomplishment. Now we see who truly deserved it. Looks like it is the back of the line for the Cat girls…hope ya land on your feet .XD
Oh and whats this!? Seems the tower of terrors are making a statement. I can not wait for Wednesday update. Hopefully catgirls will gracefully leave the ring….show what ever dignity they have left,
This has been a great ppv for me so far.
Well that was something I did not see coming, the ref has the right idea and getting the !$$# out of Dodge. Looks like Terror is presenting their case for being the new number one contenders, it gonna be a long night in RA.
I hope this continue.. no cut..
so.. Catgirls have stain of one loss on their record..
as Snowkitten said in the forum.. “Never loss a tag match” .. now they loss to black and blue..
http://rivalangels.freeforums.org/catgirls-fan-club-thread-t59-20.html
Towers of Terror? could they next be in line? I think.. Towers of Terror should face of Catgirls again..
WTF!!!!
Zombia Luna chokeslam Blue Danver, and April Black? one hand each.. OMG…
will Rose Ryoko be in the veterinarian? after this?
Anything can happen, but the Cat Girls still got robbed…
How did they get robbed? They lost – it happens.
Now, if I were in the match making capacity in Rival Angels, I’d start the match over again, this time, Triple threat Tornado Tag. Not because I’m a fan of the Catgirls, since lets face it, with Rose Ryoko taking the Black and Blue, she’d be a bit of a detriment at this point. No, I’d make the match because I think I speak for everyone here when I say We’d like to see the action
second it and agree on Donny Icarus
It looks like the Catgirls have friends in high places.
Black and Blue vs. Violence Rose Ryoko and Snow Tiger Cat(girl) Kitten: **. Where to start?
-Is it just me or is every single Catgirl match a tornado tag match just so they can pull their antics only nobody told the fans? We get it, the refs are doofs and you don’t know why they even think they have a shred of authority over anything. When you see matches like this, it really makes you long for a normal tag team match.
-You can tell that Black and Blue tried to make this a good match, but the Catgirls weren’t having any of it. Plus, with Sara/Krystin and Sabrina/Kat going long, there was no way they could have made anything out of this match. Plus, it is the Catgirls they were going against. For the tag titles, no less. Nobody sees anything wrong with that? Comedy jobber tag team vying for a championship in what is supposed to be a stacked tag team division?
-Whoever thought it was a good idea for the Catgirls to be the #1 contender for anything (much less win anything) has already been given their walking papers. Way to lay an egg there, guy who pushed the Catgirls. On that note, apologies for saying that Brandt and Holiday were on the Job Squad. At least they could have gone longer than 3 minutes.
-The match may have been a dud, but the events after are 4 stars in my book (5 if they destroy those silly lilies). We finally get the matchup we’ve been waiting for. Now, a smart person would book an impromptu tag team championship match between the ToT and BnB on YOUR BIGGEST PAY-PER-VIEW EVENT OF THE YEAR and let it run long so the people won’t think the tag division is in that bad of shape. But Sun Wong and [NAME REDACTED] Carpenter are up next, so I’ll accept Luna squishing the Catgirls.
So when you look back on the Rival Angels 20XX Tag Team of the Year, look on the Cat’s Eye Girls with a song in your heart and lots of laughter.
Never before I have I heard someone make such sense in my eyes! JSN I applaud you in your brave and honest opinion of the matter. I totally agree with everything you just said. this match from all we have seen was pretty one sided. The Catgirls got off one little cheap trick then when we see them again we see Snow get tossed like a rag doll from the ring and Rose black and blue.
Really catgirls get out of the way until you actually get some tag team skills instead of cheap little tricks that fool lesser tag teams.
It’s a 50/50 shot I’ll agree with anything you say, and so far you and I seem to be on the same wavelength, but even then, I may not agree with everything you say even when I do agree with you. Or anybody, for that matter. And so it is, I agree with you. To a point. You’re right, of course, that if they were truely deserving of the honor of being Tag Team of the Year, they’d have gotten the job done when it mattered most and proved it by becoming Tag Team Champions. Failing to do so, I guess it goes to show they truely are little more than, as you put it, a “comedy jobber tag team.” No real telling how worthy or unworthy April Black and Blue Danvers are of being Tag Team Champions seeing how this is the first time we’ve seen them in action and their victory was a clean one, but at least they got the job done and proved they deserved to retain over this team at the very least.
For all you’ve said on the matter, JSN, here’s where I disagree: I personally think it would make a bigger impact if the Towers of Terror made mincemeat out of the Tag Team Champions. The Cat Girls lost, let them go lick their wounds. Other than that, I have no problem with seeing Zombie Luna and Lover Lola get a shot. Not right now, though. Sun’s match is coming up next.
You called the Cat Girls a comedy jobber team?
So far not at all happy with the way things are going. Honestly, having the Catgirls lose came off as ‘See, I the author can do the unexpected! What a shocking swerve!’ So far the heels have been cleaning house and it’s getting a little depressing.
Oh, and to the person calling the Catgirls a ‘comedy jobber’ team… let me see. Apparently they were undefeated until this match. So they have a lot of wins. One loss and they’re jobbers you can’t take seriously. Uh, that logic doesn’t seem… logical. Not to mention that one loss doesn’t knock a person or team out of contention altogether.
Of course based on the previous commentary, it seems like you’re convinced the heels are carrying every match and the faces can’t tie their own shoes without help.
Anyway, just saying my two bits. The match came off as a big anticlimax, and frankly Albone I’m disappointed.
Albone..
you should place more shots, more time.. more action on the Catgirls.. than a one week..Sun and Sabrina..
that one week.. is very entertaining action, we can see how Catgirls roll.. until the end..
Sabrina & Sun moment.. are bah humbug!!
SABU!!
Hmmm I am getting the impression that a lot of people out there didn’t care for the Catgirl match. Scratches my head about that.
no no no!!
Snowkitten..
I really care about that match..
sob sob..
wish the “Catgirls” were the main star of this comic not “Sabrina”..
Well how could we have liked or disliked the match when we have barely seen any of it.
Nothing wrong with a swerve or heels winning the match, but poor Rose didn’t really see any ‘legal’ ring time and I think the time lapse makes it appear like the match was over in about 1 minute… obviously a lot we didnt see.
::offers Snowy a soft blankie and a plate of warm catnip cookies:: You girls did your best and those who aren’t Acronyms of Doom still love you… Just make sure you’re not wherever Zombie Luna is gonna toss those two, ‘kay? 🙂
Whoa! I know fans can be fickle but this is a shocker. The catgirls were undefeated until this match. I’ve had more losses than them so does that make me a jobber too? Hmmph! And I’ve no idea where this “comedy” thing is coming from. There seems to be some agreement about it though so I’d like to hear more. The bottom line though is the match was stolen from them. The ref blew it. Snow was the legal one so the pin is invalid. I was on the phone with Gaby about it and had her listening. I think we would have seen a restart. But we’ll never know. The Towers showing up makes it all moot. And that – or a DQ – was their plan. Count on that!
Now I don’t know about you all, but I smell Yvonne’s perfume hanging in the air. I think I’ll be paying her a visit.
Catgirls, you gave it your best shot. You’ll show ’em next time!
Maybe Yvonne kicked in for the Tower plane tickets to Paris too.
I always love a good lights-out-appear-in-the-ring. I also like the Towers of Terror, we haven’t seen them in, geez, how long?
Don’t mention the lights out thing to Mo Chen! Ai-ya! My fight with the Zombie was painful enough.
BBD, I’m glad you are enjoying the PPV! More Towers on Wednesday.
jabberwocky, I’m glad I was able to slide a surprise in. The Towers are definitely making their intentions known.
MGC, no cuts from the in-ring action until it’s over. I know you and others would’ve liked to see more and to see the Catgirls win which is a testament to how popular Snowy and Rose are.
Dyna, I know it seemed like it went fast, but the tag match almost got as much time as Brooke vs Monica. I think maybe the fact that there were twice as many people involved has something to do with that.
Donny, I think you’d make one popular match maker.
Coel, it certainly does. Let’s see if they come down to say HI.
Oh, come on, JSN. Weren’t you so sure that the Catgirls were a lock to win the belts? Seems like you’re changing your tune a bit which of course, is your prerogative. The Catgirls were always underdogs in this match by virtue of them being the challengers, despite their Tag Team of The Year award. And you can’t really be surprised that the champs won, can you? They are the champs after all, even if their methods aren’t the most noble. Just think how motivated the champs were after not winning that award despite being the champs! One loss doesn’t diminish the Catgirls as a tag team.
Adon, was it really that much of a swerve? The champs winning? I will agree that the heels are racking up the wins, and outside of Krystin and Veronica, not a whole lot for face fans to cheer for, though I’m not sure how to quantify Brooke. She’s a heel, but many readers like her. I can tell you that the finish was planned from before the Catgirls winning the Tag Team of the Year as well as the appearance of the Towers of Terror.
LOL @ bd!
Snowy, I think most who are disappointed are so because you and Rose didn’t win, not from anyone’s performance. They love you and want to see you on top and share your disappointment at the loss and the post-match continuation.
Cookie Ogre, that is wise advice. If Luna has her way, Black and Blue are going to be making a crater in the mat.
Way to represent, Champ! I don’t think the Catgirls are diminished at all with the loss, but it does seem around here for some readers that winning and losing is a deeply personal, soul revealing event. It happens.
Thanks, Chris! Yeah, the Towers haven’t been seen in the ring in a while. They’re back now!
Hey man, Send me a Rival Angels Roster and I’ll try and fire some matches at you, see how the crowd likes ’em.
don;t forget, this is wrestling so anytime someone loses- especially a crowd/board/forum favorite (see Bryan, Daniel) there is bound to be a bunch of posts popping up on how they’re being treated as a jobber/getting buried because they shockingly lost a match. but yeah put me on the “how could a previously undefeated tag team become jobbers off one loss- even if it was squash-like?” side. i mean Goldberg didn’t instantly become jobber after Nash ended his 526-0 (/WCW counting off) undefeated run did he?
this match shaped up as more of a Kong/Taylor Wilde match without as much Taylor Wilde winning. Catgirls really needed to isolate Black to have a shot here but instead they couldn’t get Blue out of the ring and ended up losing as a result. Nice to see the Towers appear with the Deadwoman taking heads. heel vs heel match- be interesting to see who the crowd sides with with the Towers vs. Black and Blue.
Though Gabby could play the wrong Catgirl getting pinned card and make it a triple threat so the crowd could do something other than boo the whole time. besides it was those heel fans surfing Snowy too far away to make the save that really cost them the match ;P
Yeah Im sick of heels winning at this point honestly. The tag champs winning that I can see Kat winning NO WAY IN HELL. Helle’s belles should not win a match ever. so Im hoping Sabrina stomps de sade enough to put her in the hospital. As for tower of terror showing up eh could have done without that honestly.
We’re going to have a blast at ACEN, my friend! Also, let me know if you are still up for the webcomics panel, even if it’s during floor hours (currently that’s the schedule, but it could change until they hand me the schedule for the weekend).
Black and Blue’s strategy was sound, no argument from Mo Chen. You can’t just isolate a Cat Girl in a corner – they are too crafty. They had to completely isolate one or the other from the ring.
I think any dissatisfaction boss, came from the comment that we would be getting uninterrupted coverage after the first break – and then it’s suddenly ova’. Many assume the match was no in its waning moments by long shot.
Having the Cat Girl Express ended didn’t bother me much (no offense Snowy), and Black/Blue definitely earned the belts somehow but without frame of time or how long the bout was going – it seem like the girls got short-circuited and done in by one move (albeit major nasty one).
Also, to address the ‘who’s legal man’ issue, if Rose had been in – I can see Blue stepping in to stop the pounding and Snow tried to cut her off, only to get tossed. But, we don’t see it – we don’t know it happened.
jpiv, it’s weird how some fans and readers take losses. I had a conversation with a fan where it seemed that a loss was like virginity. Once it’s gone, it can never be the same again. For instance, if Chloe were to defeat Sabrina, Sabrina would forever be tainted, even if she beat Chloe 3 straight times after that. It’s like, dude…relax. In MMA, there’s only a very few undefeated guys, or guys with winning streaks in the double digits, but I’m really digressing because it’s just a few readers. As you know, Gabrielle will make the best match for the fans/business.
Thanks for your honesty, Tiffany and for sticking with us. I know the heels are on a roll at the PPV and I don’t know if you’re a fan of Brooke, but does that sway the face/heel count for you? Or if Sun were to win, would that add to the heel pile, or wouldn’t it matter since some readers like her no matter what? Just curious is all. You know Sabrina is going to give it her all to give you both what you want.
Hey, Trevor! If you got the room, I have the time. I can add a thing or two on this ‘webcomics’ thing. XD
Dyna, it’s a weird science, this match length stuff. I mean, towards the end of Brooke’s match was 12 pages long and by page 10 a reader was yelling for the match to be over, and very rudely at that. Was 12 pages too long for a match? It seems that I hit the perfect length with Krystin and Sara. The Catgirls match started with 3 pages, had a 2 page break and then has 5 pages and counting which I don’t mind telling you is about 2X as many pages as I normally would’ve given it. I really love that readers like you and MGC want to see more of peeps like the Catgirls (and Snow really does rule) but to for the average reader, they’re just not as invested in them and it gets confusing, like ‘why should I care about these perky girls? Where’s Sun and Sabrina?” This might be a good example of a match that could be completed on the side.
Heya. a lil late but hey.
Poor Snowy, come in uncle Van arms, Ill hug you tight to reconfort you !! 😉 lol
BTW Albone… The cat girl will deserve a rematch for sure!!!!
Now lets get back to more action… hopefully Brina will get a win and show everyone she is the best ;P
Shame about the Catgirls’ loss. The Towers of Terror showing up is an interesting twist.
Sometimes I start to get frustrated at a match’s length when there’s other stories I’d like to see begun or resolved, but I get over it. This one, for instance. I took a deep breath, focused on what was going on, enjoyed the match, and learned more about the characters you were focusing on at the moment. Turns out, I like the Catgirls now and enjoyed the match more than I originally expected.
I can kinda see Tiffany’s point. Two high-profile face losses in one night of wrestling sucks for those of us who like those characters. Unfortunately, some nights go like that. I’m just hoping that it’s setting itself up for a dramatic finish of a) Sabrina totally wrecking de Sade despite how beaten down she got earlier for a feel-good underdog win, and b) de Sade’s attitude toward the other Belles coming back to bite her and the Belles start turning on each other!
I approve of jpiv’s response to JSN. Also, I hope that Rose is okay. Snow looks concerned.
There’s a few more matches to go yet. The good guys can still pull this out. Hey Snow! Where’s my white hat? 😀
Next victim….Brenda Rua.
rather putting.. another loss on Sabrina Mancini..
concentrate on Sabrina more loss..
Here, I was getting it dry-cleaned for you, for that extra-sparkly whiteness!
hmm yeah Champ, starting to look like the hopes of all facedom will be counting on you (and brina) to save the PPV for them. fortunately for me i’m a tweener ;P
Svan, better late than never! You can bet that Gabrielle will have a meeting with the Catgirls after the PPV. Action’s coming up, but first it’ll be Xtina vs Sun!
Hey DragonMan, glad you are digging the action and story, even if the focus isn’t on necessarily a favorite character of yours. I know you and Tiffany are hoping for a big Sabrina win, and if she can help it, she’ll try to deliver.
Right on, Champ!
Hey jpiv! As a tweener, would you cheer Xtina or Sun, or would it come down to personal tastes?
Well ray has ovbiously gone bye bye, Egon what do you got? sorry vankmen im terrified byond the point of rational thinking. w ell som much for gettign help form the ghostbusters all i know is that this cant end good for any one
Yeah, I don’t get the folks who don’t want to see a character lose. While I dislike when Sara Valentine loses (which is almost all the time) it’s part of her role on the card and as a supporting character.
If Sabrina lost to Chloe it’d be hard to justify her high face push but then again I see Rival Angels as an actual wrestling company with the pre-determined outcomes. Of course I favor heel-centric victories for awhile in most face-heel fights with the face coming out on top in the big blow off match.
Although, if it is two folks of near equal push and skill, back and forth is a good thing too. I’m sad Rose and Snow lost but think that a later 3 way match between the Towers-Black and Blue-Catgirls would be pretty darned good.
Have to ask, but seeing Rose laying there… (panel 2)… she looks a tad preggers… poor thing!
She’s knocked out AND knocked up?
nah what your seeing is ther force of the beating black and blue gave her taking efect they as you can see have compressed her torse ssom what so her once lovely firm trim mid section is not a sqished jiggly mass
Now this would be a Thunderous match of Epic proportions! They would have to have this match it in the Colosseum in Greece. Shame the Cat girls lost but it’s hard to overcome the dominance of Black & Blue.
