AVW Elevation: Episode 3 - February's Avalanche Slam [Part 2] (February 8, 2022)
"Simple question answered so straightforward direct by Rin and looks to become the Women's Champion tonight!" Shun exclaimed.
"And speaking of direct, we have just received word that earlier before the show, the teams of Darkness and Megumin, and Kill la Familia, almost went to a fight but thankfully, our security controlled the situation prior to their involvement in two weeks at Tag Team Turbulence," Excalibur informed the viewers.
The screen showed the moments when the alleged brawl, where the securities held onto the hands of everyone involved as they saw the women mugging each other.
"Try to attack me in front, you sly bitch!" Ryuko shouted to the other team while trying to break free from the grip of the security.
"I will if I have to! Let me go!" Darkness replied, kicking endlessly, trying to at least fire a shot at their adversary.
"If we can attack you with the chair again, oh, we will do it until you are left helpless!" Megumin threatened.
"At least, try to attack us in front!" Satsuki replied calmly but with a stern look.
The General Manager then arrived eventually to fully defused the situation.
"Hey, hey, enough! Enough of this!" Kokomi cried as the parties involved froze once they saw her presence. "You're trying to hurt yourself before your championship match in two weeks? I'll completely be allowing it to you but if anyone of you is hurt badly or injured, then I have no choice but to remove your team at the Women's Tag Team Championship match at Tag Team Turbulence! Do you want to do it now?!"
The teams responded with nothing with their heads hung, speechless and silent.
"Then you're gonna have to wait for next week and I am allowing you to have your fists and feet to fight with each other. But for now, let's have a game of patience, think you can make it?"
The women nodded quietly.
"Alright then, it's settled! Security, let them separate!"
With that, the security crew walked out alongside the teams in different directions while the GM smiled after solving a dispute in just a few minutes.
"Thank goodness for the General Manager and the security team, everything has been handled well surprisingly. And let's not forget their match for next week, where both Darkness and Satsuki Kiryuin, who is involved in the altercation, will be taking on each other and not just them, but also Rumia Tingel from The Mage Sisters, and Houki Shinonono of Team Stratos! A Four Corners Match and it is gonna be a melee when those four teams are in the same ring despite their Women's Tag Team Championship at Tag Team Turbulence in 2 weeks!" Corey reacted to the whole segment.
("Another Way Out" by Brian Luzetti & Douglas Rappaport) played in the background as the arena slightly darkened and the entrance ramp was lit up by multiple spotlights until two men appeared in their devilish attire that speaks to their personalities and walks across the ramp, earning slight reactions, either positive or negative.
"We cannot wait for that to happen but for now let's deepen down for the moment as we look on to the last team to enter the semi-finals of the Tag Team Turbulence tournament," Shun said. The two then entered the ring in a hurry as a wide spotlight was beaming on the ring with them.
"This final tag team match is a quarterfinals match of the Tag Team Turbulence Tournament, and it is set for one fall with a time limit of 30 minutes. Introducing first,
originally hailed from Ente Isla and now residing in Tokyo, Japan, the team of Shiro Ashiya and Maou Sadao!" Mai Sakurajima announced as the said team went to separate corners to gesture a peace sign; but in contrast to their looks, it was a sign of the devil.
"The tag team debut for Maou Sadao after he was involved in the Battle Royal back at Winter Warfare as he looks to find a way to advance to the tournament alongside his follower, Shiro Ashiya!" Excalibur stated a fact as they hopped off to the turnbuckle as the arena went back to the arena.
"And for me, I'd say they're a cohesive team since they have been allied for the last, uhhmm, thousand years, I would say. From taking over such cities and eliminating enemies, it seems to me that they're prepared for this type of challenge." Corey said.
("New Rockers" by Jim Johnston) played in the background as the familiar duo appeared on the entrance ramp to a loud cheerful reaction as they ran across the platform, smoothly sliding underneath the ring.
"And their opponents, representing Class 1-A, Shoto Todoroki and Katuski Bakugo!" Mai Sakurajima announced as the heroic duo jumped to the second rope and backflipped, landing on their feet to gain more reactions from the crowd.
"What a reception from this lively crowd here at Entertainment & Sports Arena! This duo will have a chance to become champions alongside their brethren, the AVW World Champion, Izuku Midoriya, who will compete later tonight. Will their journey continue up until the finals?" Excalibur said.
"They should be, they are a popular team as of this moment and they are looking to continue their momentum as a tag team this time," Shun added. "They're now assigning on who's going to start the match."
The two teams decided to choose who to start the competition until Shoto and Maou decided to bring their A-game early as the referee signaled for the timekeeper to ring the bell.
"The stakes couldn't get better with the final slot for the semis in this tag team tournament," Shun said.
The two began with a collar and elbow tie-up and lasted for a few seconds until Shoto turns it into a Side Headlock with Maou shoving Shoto to the ropes with the hero hitting a Shoulder Tackle to Maou. Shoto hops over Maou to bounce on the ropes, with Maou leapfrogging above Shoto, who rebounded to the other side.
Maou went for an Arm Drag but was blocked by Shoto, who kicked the mid-section of his opponent as he collapses to hit a kick to the cheek of Maou, who cupped the damaged cheek. Unknowingly to the devil himself, Shoto tags Katsuki, who enters the ring to the cheers of the fans.
"There you go, a tag to Katsuki Bakugo to escalate the match! This shows efficiency between Class 1-A as you have previously seen from the Elevation's first episode!" Shun exclaimed.
Katsuki dropkicks the leg of Maou, sending him down, with Shoto running to the ropes to hit a Splash onto Maou, who sat up in pain and got caught by a Penalty Kick from Katsuki then ends the array of moves with a Jumping Elbow Drop. Katsuki proceeds to cover Maou with the hook of the leg.

Maou kicks out.
"Even though a hard-hitting tag team onslaught could not stop the devil himself, which is Maou, by the way," Corey said.
Katsuki picks up Maou and attempts a Scoop Slam but the latter was able to land on his feet to the surprise of the fans. Katsuki went for a Clothesline but Maou ducked with Katsuki ran to Maou, who launches his Back Elbow to the face of Katsuki, instinctively staggering towards the corner of Maou, who tags Shiro immediately.
"Here comes the devil's follower, Shiro Ashiya, taking control of their team for the moment," Excalibur said. While Maou buries his shoulder at the cornered Katsuki, Shiro fires a big right hand at the face of Katsuki.
"Whoa-ho-ho! Big Uppercut by the big man, Shiro, almost got him out of the equation!" Corey exclaimed.
Both Maou and Shiro lift Katsuki to the top and tangled his arms, sending the hero down with a Double Team Crossed-Arm Iconoclasm, sending the fans in awe. Shiro then covers Katsuki while Maou went back to their corner.

Katsuki's shoulder was up in time.
Shiro picks up Katsuki and fires a few punches that send the latter to the corner. Shiro then whips Katsuki to the other isolated corner with authority, causing for Katsuki to land hard on his back and collapse with the crowd began to boo the big man. Shiro reacted differently, gesturing 'no' a few times.
"It seems to dawn on me that Shiro is disliking the boos from this crowd and I don't want to speculate too early for this," Shun said.
Shiro went to the corner to attack Shoto but was luckily dropped himself to the floor right before Shiro hits him. Shiro went back to Katsuki, who starts to back on his feet. Shiro picks up Katsuki's body and stalled for a few seconds before dropping Katsuki with a Military Press Slam on his back, gaining more boos from the audience and applause from his Lord Maou.
"Shiro is showing the strengths to everyone here at the nation's capital and Maou is only his supporter," Excalibur said. Meanwhile, Shoto pounds the apron with his foot to begin a rally toward Katsuki, who tries to stand up. "And here's the tag to Maou and he is going to the top!"
Maou climbs up to the top turnbuckle to wait for Katsuki to stand up. Once he sees the opportunity, Maou leaped off but was caught by a Dropkick to the face, causing both men to go down. The crowd begins to clap alongside Shoto, while Shiro was troubled and tries to extend his arms.
"A huge Dropkick by Katsuki and the equalizer might have been effective if he gets to the corner and tagged Shoto!" Shun exclaimed.
Shoto's arm begins to extend as Katsuki crawls towards their corner, but suddenly, Shiro enters the ring to spoil the tag as he drops an elbow to the back of Katsuki, causing the crowd to boo.
"Great work, for the case of Maou and Shiro, avoiding the tag to occur from the other team." Corey complimented the strategy of Shiro.
Shiro then picks up Katsuki to whip him to an empty corner as he attempts to tackle him but Katsuki surprisingly leaps up to the top with Shiro able to stop himself from hitting the steel post. Once he saw Maou standing up as well, Katsuki went for all with a Moonsault to both Maou and Shiro to the cheers of the crowd.
"Moonsault and Katsuki were able to hit despite taking the punishment for the past few minutes!" Excalibur exclaimed. Katsuki begins to crawl toward Shoto but this time the tag has been instituted as the latter enters the ring to a wild reaction. "And here it comes Shoto Todoroki with a crazed tag!"
Shoto fires the first shot at Shiro with a Forearm Shot, followed by another at Maou. Shoto then kicks Shiro to the chest then attempts to whip Maou, who reverses it with his own as he sends Shoto to the ropes, Maou launches Shoto above as Shiro tries to catch him but Shoto captures Shiro with a Hurricanrana, sending Shiro rolling outside. Shoto then fires a Gamengiri kick to Maou to the delight of the crowd.
"Shoto is on fire with those moves, he is everywhere inside the ring!" Shun exclaimed.
Shoto quickly climbs up to the top and hits Maou with a Diving Meteora, sending Maou down as he hooks both legs to cover.

Shiro hits with his boot to the back of the head of Shoto, causing for the pin to break, much to the chagrin of the crowd.
"And Shiro just in time, was able to save their chances of winning the match and keeping the opportunity alive for them!" Corey exclaimed.
Shiro picks up Shoto and tries to send him out but Shoto counters with a Drop Toe Hold, sending Shiro's head hanging between the middle and the bottom rope as Katsuki enters the ring and he targets Shiro, running towards the other side to hit a Tiger Feint Kick to the face of Shiro, who was on wobbly legs as both Shoto and Katsuki signals themselves to hit a Double Roundhouse Kick to Shiro, knocking him out of the ring and the crowd began to become raucous.
"Double Roundhouse to the ears of the big man Shiro and he got knocked out by that one!" Excalibur exclaimed.
All of a sudden, Maou rolls up the legal man, Shoto.

The bell rang in succession as the crowd began to cheer again to the winning team with their theme playing in the background.
"Here are your winners, Class 1-A's Shoto Todoroki and Katuski Bakugo!" Mai Sakurajima announced as the victors raised their arms in victory while the referee joined the ceremony with both arms of both men raised.
"Class 1-A's momentum continues to soar to the scoreboards with another win on the team," Excalibur said.
"And with this growing situation, we can now safely say that the semi-finals of the Tag Team Turbulence Tournament are complete and set! Both of these matches and the finals will take place at the Tag Team Turbulence TV Special in 2 weeks in Jacksonville, Florida!" Corey announced.
"Also, this just in, from the office of the General Manager Teruhashi! An Eight-Man Tag Team Match will be taking place next week, featuring the teams involved in the semis. Class 1-A and Fire Force will team up against SOS Brigade, Nagisa Shiota, and Karma Akabane!" Excalibur announced more breaking news.
"Tag team implications will transpire next week, who will have the best tag team strategies and communication? Tune in for the teaser next week!" Shun added. Both Shoto and Katsuki left the ring to interact with the fans.
The camera pans to an empty road, where Shinji Ikari was sauntering in the middle of the road, looking up into the sky.
"I strive for forgiveness to myself."
In the sky, Shinji carried a medium log in a jungle with difficulties but still fighting off the fatigue.
"I will make an effort to reshape myself to the fullest."
Shinji then climbs up to the top of the building, steps on the edge, and looks down in reverie.
"I will recover from my past mistakes."
The montage of his past mistakes from Winter Warfare was played until it warped to black, indicating that he had moved on as Shinji looks up to the sky with a smile on his face.
"I am ready, and I am rejuvenated. I will return."
THE RETURN OF SHINJI IKARI
NEXT WEEK
"More surprises! Shinji Ikari will be returning next week and it seems that he had moved on from the flaws that he gained before!" Shun exclaimed with excitement.
"Well, let's see it first if that's the case next week," Corey said.
"Now coming up next, the AVW World Championship will be on the line with Izuku Midoriya defending against the SOS Brigade's VP, Kyon! Will the revolution of the SOS Brigade be raised? Or Class 1-A's momentum will remain an unstoppable force!" Excalibur said. "Now let's take you behind the curtain with Visha, interviewing the upcoming SOS Brigade!"
"Thank you, Excalibur!" Visha replied instantly. "Now, please welcome, SOS Brigade!"
The boos from the background were heard after both Haruhi and Kyon appeared beside Visha as both members are looking confident.
"So, any final comments before your match?" Visha asked as Haruhi stole the microphone leaving the interviewer stunned.
"Final comments? Hell, this is the night where Mr. Izuku Midoriya will raise his championship title for the final time! It's a done deal from the get-go! Because the SOS Brigade will make sure that Kyon will be the man standing after the match with the gold! And as for our goals, we will make sure that no one in this arena will be seeing their so-called champion afterward because Washington doesn't deserve any heroes to cheer on! Washington will only bow down to the S-O-S Brigade!" Haruhi said as the crowd showed their jeers after mentioning the state, then shoves the microphone back to the worried Visha.
("Falling Down" by Oasis) was played in the arena as the crowd's booing became louder when the duo appeared at the entrance ramp with Haruhi Suzumiya, leading the charge while the lights from the ramp were flashing at a hasty pace.
"A powerful speech coming from the president herself, Haruhi Suzumiya, sending a notice to the crowd here at Washington and especially to the World Champion, Izuku Midoriya! And they are looking for their first taste of gold as a group, the SOS Brigade!" Corey stated as the audience beside the entrance were seeing gesturing boos to the duo with Kyon taking a step to intimidate them as Haruhi smirked and clapped in reaction.
"Using Kyon to intimidate the people here is very petty on their part, especially when they are publicly known to speak out about their flaws; hence their name," Shun said as Haruhi climbed up to the steps, followed by Kyon, who was assisted by his colleague to enter to the middle rope.
"Kyon made his presence known last week by sending the AVW World Champion to oblivion with not just one but two Chokeslams! And at their interview, Haruhi said that the brigade itself will make sure that Kyon will become victorious and that says something, don't you think, Corey?" Excalibur asked as Haruhi drew an S in the air while Kyon gestured the letter O in the middle then Haruhi moved to the other side to draw the other to the disapproval of the crowd.
"I'm pretty sure that's what we heard unless the champion can make a counter to this," Corey answered. Kyon gestured to the camera the championship belt on his waist while they are waiting for the champion, who was currently standing with Visha backstage.
"Now let us welcome this time, the AVW World Champion, Izuku Midoriya!" Visha introduced the champion to loud cheers in the background as the champion appeared beside her. "I have a question for you. What is your reaction to what Haruhi Suzumiya has said a few minutes ago to you?"
"Oh, I have a reaction, alright. I'm not intimidated by her words, or even her dumb assistant's presence, who looks like a sleeping giant. As far as the world championship title goes, I'll make sure their plans to get wasted, or in fact, I hope that I'll beat Kyon so bad that the brigade can go to a garbage can to talk to the nearest trash bags out there because they look like one. And tonight, I will be getting rid of the wastes and bringing up the gold to my shoulders again to the rubble! And that's a guarantee!" Izuku answered in a serious tone before he winks at Visha, who nodded instantly.
("Faster" by There For Tomorrow) was played in the arena where smoke began to fill up the ramp, where the World Champion appeared behind to a cheering reaction, raising up his title in the air and taking a few seconds to look at the fans. Then proceeded to the ran across the ramp towards the bottom rope at a hasty pace as both Kyon and Haruhi went outside and then slides underneath to climb up to the top to raise the belt again.
"What a tremendous ovation from the Washington crowd to the AVW World Champion!" Shun exclaimed as Izuku jumps down to the canvas while Kyon slowly enters the ring.
"The talk is over, gentlemen and we are getting ready for the clash between David and Goliath here at AVW!" Corey added as Izuku gives the belt to the referee.
"Let's take the introductions to Ms. Mai Sakurajima!" Excalibur said.
The music died down as Mai Sakurajima began to introduce the talents in the ring.
"This singles match is for the AVW World Championship! With a time limit of 30 minutes! Introducing first, accompanied by Haruhi Suzumiya, representing SOS Brigade - Kyon!"
The crowd booed the tall man as he drew out the SOS in the air and gestured that the title belt will be on his waist later with Haruhi clapping for the wonderful introduction.
"And his opponent, representing Class 1-A, he is the AVW World Champion, Izuku Midoriya!" Mai Sakurajima announced as the champion raised his fist to the approval of the crowd.
"With the introductions done, we are now witnessing the first-ever AVW World Championship title defense here at February's Avalanche Slam!" Excalibur exclaimed. "And he looks to add another victory to his resume and to the Class 1-A itself, who have to punch their ticket to the semi-finals of the Tag Team Turbulence tournament!"
The referee then raised the title for a few seconds until he sends it outside to Mai Sakurajima as the referee asks the two sides if they are ready with both nodding, the referee signals the timekeeper to ring the bell as it chimed immediately.
"It's either that or this could be also the last defense from Midoriya, after all, Kyon has some advantages against the champion," Corey replied.
"Speaking of Class 1-A, we have recently learned that both Shoto Todoroki and Katsuki Bakugo will face the other half of SOS Brigade - Yukine and Yato in the semi-finals of the tournament in two weeks! While Karma Akabane and Nagisa Shiota will be facing Fire Force - Shinra Kusakabe and Arthur Boyle from the other! This tournament sure will live up to its expectations of tag team excellence!" Shun announced.
"But let's take a break from the tag team and let's see who will take the lead here," Corey said.
The two in the ring raised their hands slowly as to who gets the first move. Izuku tricks Kyon with a kick to the hamstring and another to the other side to the cheers from the crowd. Izuku went behind with a Waistlock with Kyon trying to fight off the champion when he tries to shoot his elbow to Izuku, who instantly dodges the shot as he ducks and slides under Kyon, who lifts him up immediately but was countered by a Sunset Flip; however, Kyon automatically kicks out and rolls outside to the chorus of boos.
"So far, the momentum is on the champion's side as Kyon is looking to regroup," Excalibur said as Haruhi told Kyon to man up.
"With some improvised advice from the president herself, Haruhi Suzumiya!" Corey elaborated. Izuku then shouts to Kyon to go back in the ring.
Kyon obliged as he climbs back up to the ring to meet with Izuku again and both men raised their hands again in the air; however, Kyon took advantage with a kick to the gut of Izuku, much to the chagrin of the fans. Kyon then kicks him again to the stomach before he could whip Izuku to the champion as Kyon attempts to run over Izuku on the corner but the champion sidesteps and lights up Kyon with a chop, causing Kyon to shove him back to the center of the ring.
"Oh, boy, one chop from Izuku made Kyon grimace and sends his back, could it be that he wasn't ready for this kind of strategy by the World Champion?" Shun asked. Izuku then mocks Kyon for shoving him early.
"That's not even the case, it's an instinct that certain people would have like Kyon," Corey answered.
Kyon tries to outsmart Izuku with a Clothesline attempt but the latter kicks the hamstring again and again until Izuku sweeps the leg and bounces to the ropes and hits a Running Dropkick to the face of Kyon, who immediately rolls out of the ring, earning more boos while Haruhi was looking after him. The referee begins to count
"There goes the speed and agility of Izuku and actually, I believe Kyon or Haruhi did not see this coming," Excalibur said.
Izuku shouts to the duo and mocks Kyon again, saying he can go back to eat his boot. While the duo of Haruhi and Kyon did not even see Izuku's trash-talking as the former nurses the face of the latter, Izuku decides to take flight as he went to the ropes but when he turns around, he got knocked down by a Big Boot from Kyon, garnering boos from the crowd and a peal of sly laughter by Haruhi.
"And Izuku did not even see that boot coming and he ate his word right away!" Corey exclaimed. Kyon then mounts over Izuku, who was trying to defend himself from the fists of Kyon with the boos going louder.
Kyon then picks up Izuku, lifts him up, and attempts to hit a Gutwrench Suplex but Izuku landed on his feet and proceeds to kick Kyon's hamstring a few times until he runs to the ropes to hit a Dropkick to the prone leg, making Kyon kneeling in one good leg and Izuku makes a run on the ropes again but Kyon surprises him with a Back Body Drop, sending Izuku's back in pain with Haruhi clapping for the counter.
"Oh, wow, what a height from that lift by Kyon, landing on the ring hard for Izuku," Shun said.
"And Kyon went for the cover…" Excalibur said.
1!

2!
.
Izuku kicks out immediately.
"...but only for two!" The masked commentator continued.
Kyon then arranges for Izuku to a corner and begins to strike him with a few punches until the referee reprimands him to stop as he whips Izuku to the corner. Kyon straightly ran toward Izuku, sandwiching him with a Corner Splash, followed by a Gutwrench Suplex to the displeasure of the audience.
"A Gutwrench easily outplays the smaller man, Izuku and this is where Kyon stands out, using his size advantage and strength to lift individuals such as the champion," Corey said.
Kyon then mocks Izuku by saying get back up and towards the crowd, who were booing the man heavily. Kyon then went to Izuku to give him more punches to the face until he grabs the waist of the champion, locking in the Bear Hug submission.
"Kyon using the Bear Hug submission to Izuku and if you can remember that Kyon chokeslammed the champion twice that his back must have been damaged from the impact and he is using the hold to his advantage!" Excalibur said.
"A wise and strategic move from Kyon, let's not forget Kyon's intelligence, courtesy of Haruhi Suzumiya, who is telling Kyon to squeeze the opponent tightly like a crushing lemon," Corey said.
"Of course, that guy has to learn from someone…" Shun muttered.
"Kaido, we used to teach by our teachers before even our family, did you even take school in your whole life?" Corey asked indignantly.
Kaido was left speechless by the question by Corey. The hold continues to agonize Izuku, who tries to shift his weight as Kyon takes him down to the mat to continue the pressure on the champion. After a few seconds, Izuku found a way to escape by rolling Kyon around and burying his shoulder as the referee notices it and begins to cover.

Kyon's shoulder was up while Izuku was rubbing his waist after the excruciating submission while Kyon himself tries to make his way to Izuku but was stopped by a boot from the champion who begins to assault the legs of Kyon with more kicks until the big man staggers to his feet.
"Izuku is trying to fight back with all of these punishments that he took," Shun said.
Izuku then hops off backwards to the top turnbuckle as he dives toward Kyon, who saw it coming and captures Izuku as his head shook, saying not so fast as he drives the back of Izuku onto his knee with a Backbreaker, causing the crowd to boo and for Izuku to wince in pain.
"And more punishment is yet to come from the powerhouse of the brigade," Corey said. Kyon proceeds to cover Izuku.

Izuku kicks out much to the surprise of both Kyon and Haruhi while the crowd began to chant Izuku's name.
Kyon then decides to stall time with a few stomps to the back of Izuku to the orchestra of boos from the crowd while Haruhi mocks the audience on the front.
"The punishment game continues for Kyon to serve at the World Champion, who seems to be in jeopardy right now," Excalibur said. Kyon then picks up Izuku and embraces him hardly in the Bear Hug.
"And this might do it, the Bear Hug submission is being locked in again, I don't know how much more he has left but if Izuku doesn't have another way to escape, we could have ourselves a new champion tonight!" Corey exclaimed.
Meanwhile, the crowd begin to rally behind Izuku as they kept shouting his name as the submission continues to drive Izuku into his pain threshold. As his breath is fading, Izuku somehow fights it off as he was able to shift his weight and move Kyon to the ropes, causing them to send themselves to the floor on the outside carelessly.
"Oh, my! Hard fall for both of them and if that's an option for Izuku to escape the hold, he would take it despite its repercussions." Shun said. The referee then begins to count the men outside while Haruhu shouts at Kyon to stand up.
"The referee is in the right position to begin the count and Kyon has backed up already and Izuku tries to stand even on one leg," Excalibur said.
At the count of 4, Kyon saw Izuku turning around to him as he attempts to run over Izuku, who instinctively sidesteps as Kyon hit the ring post to the cheers of the crowd while Haruhi was in shock that the champion was able to move out.
"Wow, I'm unsure if that was on instinct or he saw it coming, Izuku just avoided disaster from Kyon," Corey said.
When the count was on 7, Izuku slowly backs off to his feet and rolls inside the ring while Kyon followed suit, only to roll out on the apron to regain some energy. Izuku then saw Kyon on the apron as he went to the corner to jump on the middle turnbuckle to hit a Triangle Dropkick that sends Kyon down on the floor on his feet.
"A huge dropkick causing Kyon to slip on the floor but was still able to keep up the force!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Izuku was not done yet as he clutches his stomach and decides to do it this time when he ran to the ropes and hits Kyon straight with a Tope Suicida to the barricade, to the awe of the fans.
"I cannot believe this! Izuku has the will to move and be able to hit a Suicide Dive toward Kyon to the barricade and this might be the resetting point of the match." Corey said. The referee begins to count again while they are down again.
"It's a war of attrition from this point on, Corey," Shun replied.
At the count of 7, the crowd begins to chant Izuku's name again while Haruhi calls out to Kyon to stand up before Izuku starts to show signs of life as he enters back under the bottom rope while Kyon barely survived the count, also in the ring currently, trying to back up to his feet.
"Both men could not afford to lose here, especially if there's a championship title on the line," Excalibur said. Izuku begins to move and sees Kyon in a corner as he walks carefully to his opponent as he hits a few Knife Edge Chops until he whips Kyon, who counters back with his own and sends Izuku to the corner.
Kyon makes a run towards Izuku, who fights back with a kick to the face as he sends himself to the apron and kicks the ear of Kyon to stagger him again. Once the coast is clear, Izuku hops to the ropes to take down Kyon with a Springboard Clothesline, sending him down to the mat while the crowd begins to voice their support to the champion.
"Izuku is still fighting back with all his might and the fans here at Washington, D.C. is feeling the power of the world champion!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Izuku was not done with his offense as he drops Kyon down with a Thesz Press to begin his punching spree, in which the crowd counts until 10 as the champion beats his chest to a positive reaction.
Then, Izuku picks up the leg of Kyon as he woos with the crowd, attempting for the Figure Four Leg Lock but when Izuku turned the target leg, Kyon uses the other to shove him to the corner, but Izuku holds the ropes in time to stop himself from hitting.
"Izuku went for the Figure Four uncharacteristically and Kyon uses his leg strength to prevent that from happening despite getting punished on that part earlier," Corey said.
When Izuku tries to run to Kyon, he was met by a wicked Lariat to the chorus to the boos before he covers Izuku in a Back Press position.

Izuku kicks out as the frustrations begin to set on Kyon but was calmed down by Haruhi, who sends him some support.
"The longer this match goes, the frustrations begin to build on Kyon, even for the champion," Shun said.
Kyon calmed himself down before picking up into scoop position and sending the body of Izuku to a corner with authority. Kyon attempts to hit a Power Slam but Izuku surprisingly counters the move with a Small Package pin.

Kyon kicks out as Izuku begins to stand in pain.
"I don't know how Izuku can withstand the damage that he received from Kyon earlier but he is still fighting!" Corey exclaimed.
Izuku fires a few Forearm Shots to the face of Kyon and adds up with a Thrust Kick to the midsection, follows up with a Knee Lift to the face Kyon and finally hits a Russian Leg Sweep. Izuku went for the pin but his fatigue begins to show as he took a breather on the corner while Kyon rolls outside of the ring to the chorus of boos. The referee begins to count on Kyon.
"As much as I want to be unbiased, it's a smart move by Kyon to roll outside to avoid being pinned," Excalibur said.
Izuku then realizes that Kyon was on the outside, he attempts to take him down as he bounces to the ropes and attempts to hit another Suicide Dive, but Kyon catches Izuku and slams the champion with a Chokeslam on the apron, leaving the crowd in awe and disgust and the back of Izuku in agony.
"Oh, my god! He slammed him to the hardest part of the ring! That's gotta be it for Izuku!" Shun exclaimed.
Once the count hits 8, Kyon begins to move as told by Haruhi and rolls Izuku inside of the ring, and so is the challenger. The challenger begins to gather up energy and waits for his opponent to get up. As soon as Izuku stood up slowly and faces him, Kyon grabs the throat of Izuku, attempting for a second Chokeslam but miraculously, Izuku fights back with Elbow Shots to the side of Kyon's face.
"Look! Izuku is still fighting and countering after getting hit with a Chokeslam on the apron!" Excalibur said in shock.
"What is he even made of?!" Corey asked in disbelief.
The shots were effective as Kyon let go of Izuku, who grabs the leg of Kyon and locked in the Figure Four on the long legs of the contender, causing the crowd to erupt and chant for Kyon to tap out with Kyon shouting in pain.
"That's it! Izuku wants to decimate Kyon with the legs as the target with the submission!" Shun exclaimed.
"Kyon is in big, big trouble, the legs of his will be in jeopardy with Izuku applying the Figure Four!" Excalibur added.
Haruhi shouts to Kyon to keep holding on while the crowd continues the chant of 'Tap Out!' to the big man. Izuku kept the pressure for a while but Kyon slowly moved backward as he tries to grab the nearest bottom rope despite the lock still intact.
After a few seconds, Kyon surprises everyone when he grabs the bottom rope as the referee told Izuku to break the hold and begins to count to 5. Izuku releases Kyon before the count marks at 5.
"Wow, unbelievable! That submission must have felt like an eternity for Kyon and he is still hanging on the rope, figuratively and literally!" Shun exclaimed.
Izuku slowly crawls towards the apron while Kyon tries to stand up but could not due to his legs being damaged by the submission. Izuku took his time to climb up to the top turnbuckle. Once his balance was stable, Izuku looked to the crowd as he taunts them back in delight as he drops off, hitting a 450 Splash but suddenly, Kyon grabs the referee's collar and drops him as the move fully hit the referee and Kyon as well to the surprise of the crowd, causing for the referee to move out of the ring.
"Kyon used the referee as a shield but he got hit in the process!" Shun said.
"It's a strategy that needs timing and position but Kyon executed it perfectly!" Corey replied.
Izuku covers Kyon but the referee was out of the ring, therefore, the crowd instead counted. Haruhi then realize the current situation as he beckoned on the entrance ramp.
"Now what is he doing?" Shun asked.
The answer was revealed when both Yato and Yukine appeared from the entranceway as the crowd booed after Haruhi ordered them to enter the ring and went to Izuku to gang up on him with multiple stomps.
"SOS Brigade took their word earlier into fruition as Haruhi said that the brigade will try to find a way to take out Izuku!" Corey exclaimed. "Couldn't expect more from their leader."
After a few seconds have passed, Haruhi then shouted to the team to take him out for good as Yukine picks up the knocked-out Izuku while Yato climbs to the second turnbuckle, attempting to hit the SOS Driver (Spike Piledriver), but the crowd's roar begins to echo in the arena as the team of Shoto Todoroki and Katsuki Bakugo stormed to the ring to the surprise of Haruhi.
"Here comes the cavalry, Katsuki Bakugo, and Shoto Todoroki, evening the odds for their brethren!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Yukine set aside Izuku to the corner as Katsuki surprises him with a Double Leg Takedown and attacks Yukine with multiple punches while Shoto sends Yato down to the mat with a shove and enters the ring to begin the assault on Yato as the crowd begins to chant 'This is Awesome!'
"I agree with them, this just turned into a faction war in a second!" Shun shared the same sentiments as the crowd.
Meanwhile, Yukine escapes underneath while Katsuki followed him outside of the ring while Shoto sends Yato with a Clothesline to the outside as well with Shoto following the adversary. The melee continued outside when they exchange offense with each other. Unknown to them, Izuku begins to climb up to the top again.
"Wait… Izuku is on the top?! What is he thinking now?! Not at a time like this!" Corey said.
Izuku risked it all as he dives outside with a Moonsault, taking out the brigade and his brethren in the process as the crowd chanted 'Holy Shit!' this time.
"Moonsault taking out everyone that moves! Izuku just risked it all!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Izuku stood up immediately and taunts the crowd like he is still fresh in the match as he instinctively went back to the ring. However, Kyon surprises Izuku and hits the Alienated (Sitout Chokeslam) to the boos from the crowd, Haruhi jumped in excitement when she saw his colleague hitting the move and she decides to lift the referee and sending him back, shouting at him to begin counting. The referee saw Kyon pinning Izuku. While Haruhi decides to mock the fans in the front seat and tells them that they will have a new champion after the pin.

Izuku's shoulder was up in time as everyone from Kyon to Haruhi and to the crowd, who begin to chant 'This is Awesome!' again.
"UN. BELIEVABLE! Izuku got the shoulder up at 2.99 if there was one! I cannot believe what we are seeing now, gentlemen!" Excalibur said.
"I am also questioning Izuku's resiliency and fortitude. How much does he have left?" Corey asked.
"I have no answer to that," Shun replied.
Both men were spent out and the referee is still down on a corner despite he counted a minute ago. The kickout caused Haruhi to be incensed as he picks up a chair underneath the ring to the boos of the crowd and enters the ring.
"Haruhi is in the ring with the chair, looking to be pissed off with the match continuing. He is looking for that perfect strike!" Corey exclaimed.
Izuku begins to show consciousness as he grabs the ropes to compose his balance carefully. Haruhi then prepares for the swing but the crowd once again erupted with cheers as another individual appeared behind Haruhi, who was gullible at the crowd's reaction.
"Th-that's… that's Ochako! Ochako Uraraka is back! Ochako is back!" Excalibur shouted. Haruhi finally realized the reception when her chair was snagged as she looks back and her eyes widened, her face was frozen in shock when she saw an angry Ochako.
"She appeared at a great time and she is looking at the person who cost her the opportunity at the AVW Women's World Championship two weeks ago!" Shun said.
"And Haruhi's face says she has seen a ghost of her past," Corey said.
Haruhi laughed at her, attempting to coax Ochako, who decides she is not having fun with the current situation as she attempts to swing the chair on Haruhi, who dodges the attack as she begins to run and slides under the rope while Ochako trailed behind with a chair, both went to the crowd and went upstairs, leading somewhere inside of the arena.
Meanwhile, both men stood up at a snail's pace as Kyon fires a punch to the face of Izuku, who reciprocated the attack as they hit each other a few times until Izuku adds it up with a few chops to the chest.
"Man, these men wouldn't stop beating each other!" Shun exclaimed.
Izuku bounces to the ropes to fire another offense but Kyon grabs the throat of Izuku, attempting to hit another Alienated (Sitout Chokeslam) but Izuku counters with a DDT, causing the crowd to go louder. Izuku notices that Kyon was trying to get up as the former hit a Superkick to the face of Kyon, who was staggering on his feet and Izuku hits another Superkick, with Kyon on one knee.
Izuku prepares to send him down with a third Superkick, finally sending the big man down for good as Izuku desperately goes to the top turnbuckle and taunts the crowd, who reacted wildly as he finally hits a 450 Splash to Kyon. Izuku then hooks the leg of Kyon as the fragile referee sees Izuku in the predicament and begins to count.

The bell rang in succession with the crowd erupting with joy after Izuku's theme played.
"Here is your winner and STILL the AVW World Champion, Izuku Midoriya!" Mai Sakurajima announced.
"Guys, we have seen a banger in just a few weeks!" Shun said.
"I agree, this match just turned from a battle into an all-out war between the two groups and delivered what everyone expected!" Corey added.
Izuku tries to pick himself up as Kyon rolls to the outside while the referee took his time to get up to grab the championship to give it to Izuku, who raised his arms and the belt simultaneously.
"Unbelievable match between these two! Kyon can get some of the credit for being a tough challenger for Izuku, who retains his AVW World Championship. Congratulations to Izuku Midoriya for retaining the championship!" Excalibur said. Izuku then clutches his back and gut in pain as he tries to walk on his own.
"Speaking of the championship, in just a few minutes, we will crown a new women's champion by the end of the night! But before that, let's take you back to Visha backstage with another interview from someone." Corey said.
Backstage Area
"What a fight between Izuku and Kyon but the champion will keep his title. But for now, please welcome with me at this time, 'The Shield Hero' Naofumi Iwatani!" Visha introduces the interviewer, who appeared in time as the crowd cheered in the background. "Mr. Naofumi, your deal with The Monarchy is now over, what's next for you?"
"That's an easy question. I don't have to deal with that delusional Queen Bitch or whatever you can call to her and those lackeys anymore, so the question still stands, what's next for The Shield Hero? The answer should go like this - since I have been screwed out of the World Title picture by them, it's easy to see why I should have an opportunity for the AVW World Championship!" Naofumi answered with a stern look, earning cheers from the audience.
But before he could continue, his eyes squinting, very annoyed when he saw the familiar presence of someone who he despises.
"I thought our deal is over," Naofumi asked as the camera moved to the right to reveal The Monarchy - Malty Melromarc and her knights, receiving loud boos from their presence. "Why are you here interrupting the interview?"
"You're right, Shield Hero. The deal is over between us." Malty replied then smirked. "However, the deal between your companion and myself is not over yet. By the way, she's hiding behind that curtain." She gestured behind Naofumi to a widened curtain, and it opened to reveal a girl in an armor suit with tanuki ears as she proceeded toward Naofumi, who looked unamused at this new discovery.
"You have a problem with Raphtalia?" He asked.
"I can't say I have a problem with her but she seems to have one on me," Malty answered with a reason.
"Naofumi-sama! They're still trailing behind us and after what you've been through your entire life, they still can't let go of you!" Raphtalia explained to Naofumi. "And now, they're still onto you."
"You haven't seen the match I had with her dimwit knights last week, right?" Naofumi asked, the reaction from the knights changed when they mentioned them.
"I have seen it… but, I am doubtful about this whole deal between you and them! I just can't watch or hide all the time and I need to do something to finish this whole ordeal!" Raphtalia answered.
"Huh…" Naofumi reacted and thought about it for a second until he faces back to The Monarchy. "Hey, if this is her problem then it's my problem as well. So, why don't we settle this the old-fashioned way and-"
"W-W-Wait-wait-wait, stop right there!" Malty interrupted Naofumi's proposition as the boos went louder as soon as she speaks. "Not this time, not on your terms, I'll propose something, so that we could end this nightmare that we have all been troubling for years."
"Oh? Then what is it? Tell us!" Naofumi exclaimed.
"Well, I haven't thought about one for tonight but I'll have the deal, by next week?" Malty answered arrogantly, her face became smug when she heard the boos in the background. When Naofumi did not respond to the question, Malty assumed that it was a yes and her smirk begins to show. "Then that's a yes, I'll see you both next week!"
The Monarchy eventually left them and Visha with Raphtalia with a look of concern to Naofumi, who kept a straight serious face.
"Naofumi-sama! What are we going to do?!" She asked.
"Don't mind her, she's good at playing games. Let her have her moment and we'll face them next week in the ring!" Naofumi answered. "But for now, let's keep our heads cool."
"Okay, Naofumi-sama!" Raphtalia answered with a smile as both of them walked, leaving Visha speechless with what she have gathered throughout the confrontation.
"Well, what a piece of interesting news to unveil for us between two sides. Let's take us-"
Visha's voice started to become distorted as the screen begins to show static visuals and sounds until the screen showed a woman using the computer as he clicks on a link that sends him to a dark website.

The screen once again transitioned back to its formalities as the camera focuses on the commentary desk.
"What a night it has been here at AVW with February's Avalanche Slam here at Washington D.C., and gentlemen, are we ready for the main event?" Excalibur asked.
"We are certainly most ready and we could not wait for this moment," Corey replied. "Let's take the introductions to our fellow colleague, Mai Sakurajima!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for the main event! The following match is for the AVW Women's World Championship! With a time limit of 30 minutes. The winner of this match will be given the title belt after the match by none other than the General Manager Kokomi Teruhashi!" Mai Sakurajima announced to the delight of the crowd.
("The Epic" by Downstait) was played in the arena as the girl in the red suit showed up, where the crowd instantly booed the woman as soon as she appeared. Asuka took a long walk across the ramp, where she ignores the fans in between her as she has a serious look on her face.
"AVW certainly did not forget the value and the talent of every individual that has been contracted, especially the women in the roster," Excalibur said as Asuka stepped on the steel stairs and enters the ring between the ropes.
"From the past three weeks, we have seen the beauty and the chaotic side of the women's division," Shun added.
"Different individuals have been given opportunities and to some, chances, to step up and to become the top dogs in the division. For the past three weeks, two women will collide tonight and at the end of the night, we will witness history as one of them will become the first-ever AVW Women's World Champion!" Corey stated. Asuka then looks to the fans, who were jeering at her, and shouted that her time is now and no one can stop her.
"It is safe to say that Asuka has been waiting for weeks and she is definitely ready to take on her opponent," Excalibur said as Asuka stretches while she stares towards the entranceway.
("My Last Breath" by Evanescence) played next as the tron sets up a 10-second timer. When the timer reached zero, the entrance ramp lit up with pyro and fireworks as Rin Tohsaka showed up on the entrance ramp as the crowd instantly cheered for her arrival as she went to the fans to cover her forehead with her hand, ala Christian Cage then shared hands with them.
"The biggest hits that have been struck between these two was when Asuka stomped Rin and Rei Ayanami at the first episode of Elevation two weeks ago and then the week after, Rin went to avenge herself as she sends Asuka through a table with a Powerbomb. However, tonight, one of the questions that are still in need of an answer is - who will hit the greatest tonight?" Excalibur asked.
"As much as both of them hit their best shot at one another, we haven't seen them wrestle with each other, so that's why this match should matter and should occur and tonight is the right time for that to answer," Corey answered. Rin then enters the ring and climbs up to the middle turnbuckle to taunt the fans one more time until she landed on her feet to meet Asuka, eye-to-eye.
"Their eyes aren't separating from each other, and that says it all, guys," Shun said as the music stopped abruptly.
"Introducing the challengers, first, originally raised in Germany and currently residing here in Japan, Asuka Langley Soryu!" Mai Sakurajima introduces the first challenger as she kept her eye on her opponent despite getting booed.
"And next, from Fuyuki City, Rin Tohsaka!" Mai then introduces the other as the crowd begins to cheer and started to chant her name, also not taking her eyes off Asuka.
"You're right, Kaido! Their eyes told us the whole story, the intensity of this staredown is unbelievable!" Corey exclaimed.
"Let's remember that the AVW Women's World Championship belt will be given by none other than our GM Kokomi Teruhashi, who will come over after the match!" Excalibur informed everyone.
The referee told them the rules and the women nodded in unison as the referee signals the timekeeper to ring the bell, signaling for the crowd to chant both Asuka and Rin's names.
"We have a symphony of chants here for both Rin Tohsaka and Asuka Langley Soryu! It is wild here in Entertainment & Sports Arena!" Shun exclaimed.
The women began circling around the ring as they locked in the center with a tie-up as Asuka's power prevailed and slowly pushes Rin to a corner until the referee intervened with a warning from Asuka, who releases Rin and held her hands up but surprises Rin with a shove that caused for Rin to get upset but decides to calm herself down, causing for the fans to boo Asuka.
"Asuka shoves Rin like she is toying with her and that smirk of hers…" Shun said.
"That's called mind games, Kaido. It's all effective so far for her." Corey replied. The women reset themselves with another tie-up, which Rin transitions into a Side Headlock.
Asuka then pushes Rin to the ropes, causing her to bounce and hit a Shoulder Block, sending Asuka. Asuka kept herself down while Rin hops above her to bounce to the ropes, leading Asuka to stand and leapfrog above Rin, who surprises Asuka with a hard shove, causing Asuka to drop on her butt with the crowd positively reacting to the payback.
"A little game of tit and tat between these two and look at Asuka, she looks unimpressed with this quick retaliation!" Excalibur exclaimed. The camera looked at Rin, who smirked at the current situation while the crowd chanted the names of the two.
Asuka stands up as the two locks up once more with Rin conquering with a Side Headlock, which she transitions into a takeover with Asuka countering with a Headscissors as Rin quickly kicks out. Both women backed up already as Rin grabs the arms of Asuka from behind and attempts to hit the Unprettier, but Asuka instantly shoves Rin, almost hitting the corner.
"Asuka was very wise in forecasting the move that knocked her off last week," Corey said.
The duo went for a lock-up but Rin instantly targets the arm of Asuka with an Arm Wringer, using herself to pressure Asuka to collapse slowly, almost kneeling on one leg. But Asuka counters back with a Wringer of her own, where she also attempts to ground her to the canvas as she successfully laid Rin on her back to attempt a pin but the referee only counted one. But turns out that Asuka was attempting to hit a Second Coming (Curb Stomp) but Rin rolled just in time to avoid the contact.
"Asuka went for the Curb Stomp but Rin saw it coming just in time to sidestep and both of them are trying to outsmart each other," Excalibur said.
Rin stood up as they met again in the center with another tie-up. This time, Asuka went for the Waistlock as she tries to ground Rin, who immediately counters and went behind with a Hammerlock, also trying to ground Asuka then Rin transitioned it into a Side Headlock, in which Asuka shoves Rin to the ropes as she got hit by a Shoulder Block. Rin went to the other side as she hops on Asuka, who stood up and leapfrogs above Rin, who went back to another side of the ropes as Asuka attempts a Hip Toss but was blocked by Rin.
Asuka smirked and tricks Rin as she wraps her legs around the legs of Rin to execute a Leg Scissors Takedown for a pin but Rin kicks out at 1. Rin stood up and went to a corner while Asuka was tailing behind as Rin kicks Asuka to the gut from behind as Rin hops to the second turnbuckle to roll Asuka with a Sunset Flip but also only gets a two.
"Both Rin and Asuka are still quite in an exchange throughout the match so far, they're really trying to outwit one another and who gets the advantage," Excalibur said.
"It's safe to say that these two really trained the hardest," Shun said.
Asuka then rolls out to the ring, much to the disapproval of the crowd. Rin then sees Asuka outside as she runs and jumps to the middle turnbuckle to leap off the ropes to take down Asuka with a Triangle Plancha, causing for Rin to stand and taunt the crowd.
"A Crossbody from inside to the outside takes down Asuka to the floor and it seems that Rin is in control of this match!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Rin picks up Asuka and sends her back inside the ring and Rin soon followed. Asuka crawls to the ropes as Rin tries to grab the leg but the referee scolds Rin while Asuka kept her grip on the ropes. When Rin separates herself from Asuka, she went back to her until Asuka surprises Rin with an eye poke, causing the crowd to boo Asuka. The referee then warns Asuka of the illegal move.
"Now the tides have changed with an eye poke coming from Asuka!" Corey exclaimed.
Asuka then picks up Rin and hits a Back Suplex as she went for the cover.

Rin kicks out in an instant as Asuka quickly picks up the hair of Rin.
Asuka then whips Rin to a corner with force as the latter staggers on her feet with Asuka hitting a Hip Attack, causing Rin to bounce back to the corner to the boos of the crowd. Asuka takes Rin down with a Snapmare Takedown, followed up by a Chin Lock.
"A chin lock well applied by Asuka on the namesake anatomy of Rin and she is in control right now," Corey said.
The crowd begins to clap to show support for Rin, who squirms and extends her legs, looking for the nearest ropes. After a few seconds, Rin found a way as one of her feet was hanging on the bottom rope, causing for the referee to begin the count, resulting in Asuka letting go of the hold.
Asuka attempts to redo the hold when she pulls the leg of Rin, who tricks her as she counters with a Small Package Pin.

Asuka kicks out as both women stood up with Asuka fires a Clothesline at Rin, sending her down again to the jeers from the crowd.
"Asuka was able to keep her momentum intact with a hard Clothesline!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Rin crawls towards a corner while Asuka follows her and whips her to the other corner, hitting the back of Rin as Asuka runs towards Rin to hit a Jumping Forearm Shot and sends Rin to the outside with a Clothesline, but Rin instinctively lands on the apron instead.
"Rin with a quick instinct so that she could land on the apron lightly, avoiding a hard fall to the outside!" Shun exclaimed.
"A smart move on the part of Rin but let's not forget Asuka is taking the lead here," Corey replied.
Asuka went to the apron as well as she fires a Forearm Shot. The crowd suddenly lit up when Rin fires a Forearm Shot as she continues to hit Asuka in the face until she was dazed. Rin wanted to hit a move but Asuka instinctively kicks Rin to the midsection and clubbed the back of Rin multiple times, garnering more boos from the audience.
"Rin would not back down, Asuka also not backing down into a fist fight and she is mugging the heck out of Rin!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Asuka looks at the position they were currently in and smirked when she sets Rin up for a Powerbomb but Rin countered with a huge Back Body Drop, causing for Asuka to land on the apron on her back, also causing her to scream in pain and collapsing to the floor outside. The referee begins to count on Asuka.
"Oh, my! Asuka's back got jacked by Rin on the apron!" Shun exclaimed.
Rin took a respite while Asuka begins to stand back, still clutching the back of hers. When Rin spotted Asuka going back on her feet, she took a dive towards Asuka, who immediately captures Rin and sends her to the barricade with a Spinebuster. The crowd begins to boo Asuka while the referee did not stop the count despite the occurrence going through.
"Rin went high risk but no reward when Asuka captures her and sends her back to the barricade and that is going to hurt for the remainder of the match," Corey said. The referee is currently counting at 6.
Asuka stood up slowly and picks up Rin and sends her back to the ring, so is Asuka before the count of 9. Rin was on the corner as Asuka takes advantage to hit another Forearm Shot to the face of her opponent. Asuka then takes her down with a Snapmare and went back to the Chin Lock submission.
"A Chin Lock by Asuka, going back to previous pages and Rin is in deep, deep trouble here," Excalibur said.
The pro-Rin crowd begins to clap in sync as they are continuing to rally for Rin to make a comeback whilst Rin is in submission. After a few seconds, Rin began to stand up at a snail's pace while in the hold as she counters it with a Stunner, causing Asuka to look at her jaw while Rin took a breather on a corner.
Asuka saw Rin on the corner as she attempts to run her over only for the latter to dodge as the former hits the ring post, shoulder first to the cheers of the crowd. Then, Rin exits the ring to climb up to the top as she grabs Asuka and executes a Dragon Sleeper over Asuka's neck, causing for Asuka to squirm with the referee beginning to count. Rin releases the hold before the 5 count as she continues the assault with a few clubs to the chest of Asuka, causing the crowd to count along and cheer.
"Oh, what a brutal mugging by Rin here! She is looking to capitalize more!" Shun exclaimed.
Rin then grabs the neck of Asuka again as she drills her with an Inverted Tornado DDT, causing for both women to be down and out as the referee begins to count them both while the crowd begins to chant Rin's name.
"Both of these women are all worn out but this won't end until one stands up and it is for the prestigious AVW Women's World Championship! Who will prevail this time?" Excalibur said.
After a long but short time, both women began to stand slowly before they could beat the 10 counts. Both Rin and Asuka exchanged Forearm Shots until Rin dominated the back-and-forth action as Rin whips Asuka, who counters with her own as Rin bounced and explodes with a Clothesline, and a second, then follows up with a Standing Dropkick, sending Asuka to the corner to the approval of the crowd.
"Here comes Rin Tohsaka, all fired up and she is ready to take it to Asuka on the corner!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Rin attempts to run over at Asuka, who dodges in time as Rin almost collided with the turnbuckles. When she looks back, she saw Asuka running towards her but Rin puts the lower part of her body on the apron to hit a Pendulum Kick, stunning Asuka momentarily as Rin climbs up to the top to hit a Diving European Uppercut.
"Rin is on a hasty pace and is on a hot dash and I think she's not done yet!" Shun exclaimed. Rin shouted to the fans as they were cheering for her then picks up Asuka's hair and lifts her up, hitting a Sitout Inverted Suplex Slam. "She is looking for the win here!"

Asuka kicks out as Rin asks the referee but only replied with a gesture of two.
"An array of offensive moves ain't getting Asuka down for the three and Rin tries to keep her emotions inside, trying not to interfere it in the match," Corey said.
Rin stood up as she taunts the crowd that this was the perfect time to finish it. Asuka begins to stand as Rin was focused on her opponent then proceeds to grab her arms and attempts to hit the Unprettier but Asuka shoves Rin into a corner, which she luckily avoided the contact as Asuka follows Rin, who kicks her into the gut as she hops on to the middle turnbuckle to attempt a Sunset Flip but Asuka ultimately decks Rin with a Forearm Shot mid-air, causing for the crowd to go in awe and Rin to collapse on the floor. However, Asuka did not go for the cover as she took her time to catch her breath.
"Surprisingly, Asuka did not go for the cover and went to take a breather instead. Is it the smart decision for Asuka to go for the latter?" Excalibur asked.
"I'm not sure about this decision made by Asuka but if it's for her, shaking her cobwebs, then she should be fine," Corey answered.
Asuka finally took a long and heavy breath as she sights Rin crawling and runs to Rin, attempting for the Second Coming (Curb Stomp) but Rin plays possum as she counters it with a Back Slide, only for a two-count. However, Rin kept the grip on Asuka's arm as she turns herself around to finally hit the Unprettier, causing the crowd to go wild as Rin as she rolls Asuka and sat up on the chest, hooking a leg to pin her.

Asuka kicks out, causing Rin to be shocked, and so is the crowd as Rin asks the referee again but says it was only a two count.
"Wow! Asuka survived this time from the Unprettier!" Shun exclaimed in surprise. "And Rin better be careful about stirring up her emotions."
"You're right, Kaido. Asuka kicked out of an instinct, she knew that she was gonna do that but it backfired for Rin." Corey replied.
Rin then focuses on Asuka as she clubs the back a few times until she decides to pick her up and carried her in a Fireman's position as Asuka somehow fights back with a few Elbow Shots to the cheek of Rin, earning boos from the crowd as Rin releases Asuka, who hits a Dragon Suplex, landing on her back of the neck, follows up with a Second Coming (Curb Stomp). Asuka then rolls Rin on her back and pins Rin in a Back Press.

Rin kicks out of instinct as Asuka, this time, was surprised after the kickout.
"Wow! This is unbelievable! Rin kicks out of Asuka's Second Coming!" Excalibur exclaimed as the crowd begins to chant Rin's name while Asuka was having none of it as she shouted she is finished.
"The look of disbelief from Asuka says it all!" Shun said.
Asuka then picks up Rin and begins to club her prone back, causing Rin to wince in pain as the crowd boos Asuka, who attempts to hit a second Dragon Suplex as Rin surprisingly fights back and fires a few Elbow Shots to the side of the face of Asuka, who instantly releases the hold as Rin kicks Asuka's gut, attempting to hit the Impaler DDT.
Asuka reverses the attempt with a Dragon Suplex as Rin lands on her feet as Rin kicks the gut of Asuka again and finally hits the Impaler DDT with the crowd cheering for Rin, who was down and slithers towards Asuka and the referee begins to count.

Asuka kicks out, earning more gasps than boos as Rin was now showing signs of frustration by pounding the canvas twice.
"How is Asuka able to kickout of that?!" Shun asked in disbelief.
"It's pure instinct at this point, Kaido. The kickout surely made Rin baffled in an upsetting way." Corey answered as the crowd begins to chant 'This is awesome!'.
"It's only a matter of time before someone will go down but we're at the crucial point of the match," Excalibur said.
Rin decides to take her time to take a deep breath, avoiding her emotions from getting involved. After a few seconds, Asuka begins to stand up, not knowing where she was. Rin concentrates on her target as she attempts to hit another Unprettier on Asuka, who suddenly sends Rin to the canvas with her as Asuka executes Asuka Lock (Crossface Chickenwing with Bodyscissors).
"Asuka Lock, it's locked in with Bodyscissors! Rin is in big, big trouble here!" Excalibur exclaimed as the crowd begins to shout Rin's name once more.
"There is no way that she could escape from this! It's only a matter of a few seconds to crown the new women's champion!" Corey exclaimed.
Rin was desperately squirming for her life as she was in the middle of the ring with Asuka, shouting at her to tap but this does not deter Rin. Rin was trying to keep herself hanging on for almost a minute until she counters when she rolls backward into a pinning predicament.

Asuka kicks out, making Rin escape from the hold; however, Rin did not get up in time as Asuka unexpectedly pulled another Second Coming (Curb Stomp) to the awe and boos of the audience as Asuka knelt and sneered before she could cover Rin.

The crowd went nuts as Rin's leg was hanging from the bottom rope as the referee sees the leg and breaks the count, telling Asuka what happened, in which, she did not treat the news well as she shouted from the top of her lungs. The crowd begins to chant 'This is Awesome!' chant once more.
"Are you kidding me?! The match is still going on with the legs of Tohsaka on the bottom rope!" Corey shouted in disbelief.
"That was his only chance of survival as Asuka did not see the positioning of the move!" Shun exclaimed. "I cannot believe this, guys!"
"The crowd here at the nation's capital are all enjoying and loving the match despite the two getting weary and exhausted!" Excalibur exclaimed.
Asuka decides to take things to the extreme as she fires multiple clubs, not just on Rin's back but to all parts of her body to the jeers of the crowd.
"Asuka is definitely losing control of herself as Rin is definitely out of the equation," Shun said.
Asuka is talking trash to the unconscious Rin, who got sent to the corner by Asuka as she begins to spam Shoulder Tackles to Rin as the referee begins to scold Asuka, who knocks off the referee until he came back to pull Asuka off. Asuka ignores the warning of the referee as she fires more punches to the face of Rin then she sends her sitting on the top turnbuckle.
"Now Asuka went full desperado here as he is looking for something high risk to end this once and for all!" Corey exclaimed. Asuka then decides to mock the crowd, who didn't like her trash-talking to them.
As Asuka attempts to climb up, Rin miraculously moved and fires back with multiple punches to Asuka, who got dropped down on one foot.
"Rin is up! And how is that even possible for her to be in this position despite getting assaulted by Asuka?!" Shun exclaimed.
Asuka tries to counterattack Rin, who grabs both arms of Asuka and begins to spam more Forearm Clubs to the chest of Asuka until she was not moving. To top things off, Rin attacks the back of the neck of Asuka with a hard Palm Strike to the woos from the crowd.
Rin then looks at the cheerful crowd and at Asuka, also surveying the environment, she notices that she was still holding the arms of the unconscious Asuka as she stood up on the second turnbuckle as he leaps above Asuka to hit a Modified Unprettier, sending the crowd in awe.
"Wow! That was a Super Unprettier from the top by Rin Tohsaka! Can she make the cover now?!" Excalibur asked.
To answer Excalibur's question, she swiftly covers Asuka as the referee begins to count.

The bell rang in succession as the crowd erupted when Rin's music blared throughout the arena. Rin looked weary and smiled then collapses on the ring then Asuka rolled out of the ring. The ring suddenly went colorful as a wave of streamers and falling confetti above the arena.
"Here is your winner, and your first-ever AVW Women's World Championship, Rin Tohsaka!" Mai Sakurajima announced the victor as the referee looked over to Rin, who immediately passed out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have just witnessed an Instant Classic from these two. You do not give them criticism, you give them effort and credit for making history here at AVW!" Excalibur said.
"There is certainly no loser here, particularly Asuka Langley Soryu, who showed her toughness and resilience throughout the match, she deserves more credit than she expects," Corey said.
"And oofu~ Here comes the GM, Kokomi Teruhashi, who is now holding the belt and she is making her way to the ring!" Shun announced as the GM enters with the title belt that was clearly covered in a pink cloth.
The referee sees Rin waking up and told her that the match is over and she won with the GM unveiling the belt as the crowd appreciated the design of the belt (Again, I'm lazy on describing the belt, so imagine this as the AEW Women's World Championship Belt) with Rin taking the belt off the grasps of the GM, holding the belt up high to the wild reception from the crowd as GM Teruhashi clapped Rin for her efforts while the referee held the other arm of Rin.
"What a beautiful sight to behold, I mean I was looking at the belt," Corey said.
"So is this moment, it will be remembered for years to come here at AVW!" Excalibur said as Rin told the referee to let her go as he obliged. Rin then ascends to the top and raises the belt in front of the crowd.
The entranceway began to show signs as the pyro and fireworks busted out of the ramp and the entranceway.
"Another history has been made here at Anime Valley Wrestling, and tonight, culminating with Rin Tohsaka, winning the AVW Women's World Championship in a hard-fought battle!" Excalibur exclaimed. "I am Excalibur, alongside Corey Graves and Shun Kaido, we would like to thank everyone who watched our first TV special of Elevation and we will see you next week on Elevation! Good night, everyone!"
The show ended when Rin descends from the top as she was in the middle of the ring to raise the belt one more time despite clutching her head.
