Sunshine and ToniAnn sat outside the office of the federation’s
matchmaker, waiting for him to get off of the telephone. They
had each been called to see him, and although he didn’t specify
what the meeting was about, they had assumed that it was to set-
up another defense of their tag team title. Once he finished his
call, he waved them into his office. They sat down and he
explained what the meeting was about. He informed them that they
were each in line for a shot at the singles title, but that there
were a few complications. The first was that neither would be
allowed to wrestle for the title as long as they held the tag
team championship, in other words no one was allowed to be both a
tag team champion and a singles champion. Therefore, he posed to
them, if either of them were offered a match against the champion
Helen, would they be willing to dissolve their tag team. They
both paused for a second and answered simultaneously. “YES!”
blurted out ToniAnn while Sunshine replied, “No”. Sunshine
looked quizzically over at her partner while ToniAnn stared
angrily back at her. “It doesn’t matter what she thinks” ToniAnn
said pointedly to the matchmaker, “I am dissolving the tag team
right here”. Sunshine continued to glance over at ToniAnn, a
puzzled look on her face. “What are you talking about?” she
asked her now former partner. “I’ve had enough of this tag team
crap, it’s time I moved on. I deserve to be the champion on my
own and I’m going for it” ToniAnn replied sharply. Sunshine, now
annoyed, fired back, “Who says you should be the one? What if I
want to wrestle for the championship?”. Both women turned to the
matchmaker who smirked at the pleasant dilemma. “Well then I
guess we have a problem.” he said to them, “What are we going to
do about it?”. ToniAnn abruptly answered his question, “I’ve
been carrying her the whole time. It’s obvious I’m the better
wrestler. She doesn’t even deserve to be in the same ring with
me!”. Sunshine, growing increasingly agitated, shot back, “You
carried me? If it wasn’t for me you wouldn’t even be in this
federation!”. ToniAnn sneered back at her and answered
sarcastically, “well now that I am, it’s obvious I’m better and
more popular than you. You don’t deserve to even be wrestling
here anymore”. Sunshine stood up and glared down at her. “I
could kick your ass and the crowd would love it”. ToniAnn rose
to her feet as well, “Okay then prove it. I challenge you to a
match, the winner gets to wrestle for the championship, the loser
gets thrown out of the federation!”. Sunshine paused for a
second and then answered, “Fine” she said, “Set it up!” she
ordered the matchmaker before storming out of the room. ToniAnn
smiled and turned to the matchmaker. He was grinning from ear to
ear. Although unhappy about the losing one of the two girls, he
knew that he had a great promotion on his hands. ToniAnn shook
his hand and walked out of the room, having accomplished what she
set out to do.
Although a wildly successful tag team, both in terms of wins and
popularity, their run was over and the impending mach at hand.
The date was set for Saturday night, two weeks from the meeting.
It promised to be an interesting battle between these two similar
and yet distinctly different wrestlers. Sunshine was a beautiful
blonde, 5’7” and about 145 lbs. She was a typical “California
Girl”, although not from California. She was pursuing a career
in modeling and acting, but not having much success. Her looks
were not the problem, it had more to do with her lack of brain
power. She was very flighty and not overly intelligent. ToniAnn
on the other hand was quite the opposite. She was also a
gorgeous blonde, although smaller than her ex-partner. She stood
only 5’2” and weighed about 115 lbs. Even though she had the
looks to be a model, her ambitions lied elsewhere. She was
striving to be a successful stock broker and worked hard to get
there. She was extremely intelligent and possessed strong
analytical abilities. The difference between the two was best
punctuated by the way they spent the past weekend. While
Sunshine spent the weekend roller-blading in her bikini and
soaking up the sun at the local beach, ToniAnn was locked away in
a classroom, pursuing her masters degree in financial analysis.
In the ring however, they were a great team. ToniAnn was the
brains and Sunshine was the brawn. ToniAnn did most of the
strategy planning both before and during their matches while
Sunshine’s stronger body carried out her wished. ToniAnn was a
devastating wrestler, but her smaller size sometimes put her at a
disadvantage. Sunshine’s was also a gifted wrestler, but her
limited mental capacity sometimes put her at a disadvantage.
Despite their individual weaknesses, together the two were an
unbeatable team. But this match would prove to be a classic
confrontation between brains and brawn, partner against partner
and it created quite a stir with not only the fans, but also the
other wrestlers. The fans snapped up all of the available
tickets within two days, creating the fastest sell-out in the
history of the federation. But the commotion it caused the other
women wrestlers was even more intriguing. Not only would the tag
team tile now be up for grabs, but the loser of the match between
the former champions would be out of the fed for good. This
created a scramble amongst the other women, causing them to seek
out partners and make a bid for the soon to be vacant title.
As the crowd bustled into the arena on the night of the fight,
the two principals sat in their locker room and readied
themselves for battle. There would be two preliminary matches
before theirs, so they each had time to prepare. The preliminary
matches went quickly, and before they knew it, both women were
called to the ring. Sunshine entered first to a raucous cheer
from the capacity crowd. She climbed into the ring and bounced
from side to side as the crowd cheered. Sunshine wore the same
outfit she had worn as a member of the Golden Girls, a shimmering
gold bikini with matching boots. She possessed a healthy looking
body, athletic but not muscular, with curves in the right places.
Her hair was straight and bleached blonde, falling down past her
shoulders. Her face was very pretty, big green eyes and a cute
button nose, but she had the blank expression of someone who
didn’t spend a great deal of time lost in thought. As the crowd
settled back into their seats, ToniAnn made her way to the ring.
She received the same ovation as Sunshine, evidence of the
popularity of the former tag team. She entered the ring and made
her way to her corner, perching herself against the ropes. She
wore a yellow bikini with a big sun painted on her butt and a red
line drawn through the middle of it in mockery of her opponent.
The crowd laughed as ToniAnn bent over and displayed her rear end
to her opponent, Sunshine not amused by the prank. She was much
smaller than her robust opponent, but a striking woman
nonetheless. ToniAnn’s body was much more taut than Sunshine’s
with not an ounce of fat on her. Her arms were slightly muscled,
but not so much to take away from her femininity. In contrast to
Sunshine’s flat but soft belly, ToniAnn’s was tight and rippled.
It was apparent that she took great care of her body. Her blonde
hair was shorter than her opponent’s, about shoulder length, and
she had penetrating brown eyes. One could see why the crowd’s
clamored for these two blonde beauties. As the two warriors
stretched themselves out, the bell rang and there faces turned
serious, each realizing that this could be there last match as a
member of this wrestling fed.
They both leaped out of their corners and made their way hastily
around the ring in a circular motion. They revolved around the
ring once before lunging toward each other and locking arms in
the center of the ring. Sunshine used her size advantage to
force ToniAnn backward, but the crafty blonde thought quickly and
tricked her taller foe. “Watch out” she yelled, ducking as if to
avoid something. Sunshine fell for it and ducked as well, but
ToniAnn immediately thrust straight up, driving the top of her
head into Sunshine’s face. The taller blonde was dazed and
ToniAnn took advantage by launching three rapid knees into
Sunshine’s smooth stomach. The dizzy blonde moaned and doubled
over, wrapping her hands over her face. ToniAnn walked up
alongside her and rammed her elbow down into Sunshine’s curved
back, knocking her larger foe to the mat. Sunshine dropped hard,
but quickly pushed herself back up, ignoring her pain. She got
to her feet just as ToniAnn was upon her. ToniAnn grabbed her by
the arm, but Sunshine used her superior strength to toss the
diminutive blonde in a circle, letting go after a complete
revolution. ToniAnn involuntarily raced toward the side ropes,
bounced off of them and raced back toward Sunshine who was
waiting to clothesline her. ToniAnn alertly ducked beneath
Sunshine’s outstretched arm and continued forward, grabbing hold
of the ropes and holding herself against them. Sunshine charged
over to her and lunged her arms at ToniAnn’s throat, but the spry
blonde ducked beneath her, sending Sunshine’s entire upper body
forward and dipping over the top rope. ToniAnn, now perched
directly beneath Sunshine, propelled herself upright, launching
Sunshine’s entire body over the top rope and sending her hurdling
outside of the ring. Sunshine flipped over the top rope and
toppled downward, crashing to the cold hard floor outside the
ring.
The crowd jumped out of their seats as Sunshine curled into a
ball, groaning and whining from the impact. ToniAnn stepped
through the ropes and stood on the ring apron, directly over her
fallen foe. She looked down at her, positioning herself before
taking off and landing her foot in Sunshine’s stomach.
“UUNNNGGGHHH” yelped Sunshine as ToniAnn stomped on to her
midsection before skipping over her and standing directly
alongside the battered blonde. ToniAnn then reached down and
grabbed a handful of Sunshine’s straight hair and hauled her onto
her feet. Sunshine was dazed and her eyes were glazed over as
she rose reluctantly, yet forcefully. ToniAnn straightened her
up and backed up several steps before running forward, headed for
the corner. As she approached, she stepped to the side and
hurled Sunshine’s head forward, sending it cracking into the
metal support pole outside of the ring. “CLANG”, went the sound
of Sunshine’s head striking the pole as she collapsed in a heap
in front of it. The crowd cheered and roared as ToniAnn looked
down antagonistically at her bewildered opponent. Sunshine’s
ears were ringing and her head was clouded. She looked up, but
her vision was blurry and she could only hear muffled cheers.
ToniAnn scooped her up by the hair and walked her around to the
other side of the ring. Standing a few feet away from the
corner, she again charged forward and flung Sunshine forward,
smashing her head into a different pole. The curvy blonde woman
collapsed to the floor, bewildered and reeling as ToniAnn stood
over her. She acknowledged the cheers of the bloodthirsty crowd
before grabbing her victim by the hair and again hauling her onto
her feet. This time she dragged her over to the side of the ring
and threw her upper body onto the ring apron. She then leaned
down and grabbed Sunshine’s limp legs, lifting them up and
tossing them onto the edge of the canvas. ToniAnn then climbed
into the ring and grabbed Sunshine’s wrist, dragging her floppy
body to the center of the ring before dropping her down and
leaving her laying rightside up. She walked into the corner and
stood there for a minute, again acknowledging the cheers of the
crowd.
ToniAnn was now in complete control. Although there was nothing
she would like better than pounding on her opponent some more,
she thought the better of it. Her ultimate goal was to win the
championship, and beating Sunshine would put her one step closer
to accomplishing that. She climbed the ropes, peeking down at
her dormant opponent every few seconds to insure that she did not
move. Reaching the top rope, she spread her arms and then leaped
forward. She aimed her body toward her Sunshine’s, performing a
perfect swan dive as she descended upon her. ToniAnn landed
across Sunshine’s shoulders, pinning them tightly to the mat as
the judge and the rest of the crowd began to count. ToniAnn
smiled as they concluded, “7...8...9...10” before the bell rang,
signifying the end of the match. ToniAnn leaped to her feet and
began her career as the ex-tag team champion, celebrating her
first victory as such. Sunshine’s eyes began to well with tears
as she realized what had just happened. The crowd roared their
approval, not even thinking that this was the last they would see
of the pretty blonde who was plastered to the mat.
