Io tries to awaken the ref, and Toni cheats but still can’t win!

Io looks around in confusion, before spotting the downed ref and pounding the mat in frustration. She had Toni beat, she had pinned her for at least a five count, and the ref was down! She should have retained already!

“Come on, get up.” Io grumbles, having broken her cover and crawled over to the dazed ref, shaking him slightly to try and have him get his bearings back. “C’mon! I already beat her!” Io whines, sounding a bit **** as she checks on the ref and tries to wake him up. Fortunately, after a few seconds, he starts coming too, having grabbed the ropes for assistance.

However, during this time frame, Toni had also recovered a little, managing to crawl to a corner that happened to be where the women’s title was put after her original celebration was put on hold. She quickly grabs it and starts getting to her feet, staring down at it before glaring at Io, waiting for her to turn around. Shirai meanwhile has no idea what was happening, after helping the ref she turns around…and gets clocked in the face right with her own championship, the crowd loudly beginning to boo the actions of Toni Storm.

“New Champ!” She screams, sticking out her tongue as she decides to add a bit of insult to injury, sitting right on Io’s face for the pinfall while holding the title belt, the ref only just now coming to and beginning his count.

“1!…

2!…

3–NO!”

To a massive pop from the crowd, Io manages to somehow power a shoulder up, leaving the bitchy blonde in a state of complete and total disbelief! That should have been it, she had just rammed her opponent’s face into the title belt and she still somehow kicked out!

“Three! That was three! That was three! Count fucking faster!” Toni screams at the poor ref, grabbing the stunned man by his shirt and getting in his face. “That was three, and you know it! I should be champion right now, so ring the damn bell! And raise my damn hand!” She was clearly losing it the more her plans just didn’t work, and she was taking it out on an easy target. However, the referee had had enough, shoving Toni away from him and off of him, sending her staggering right into a roll up from Io!

“1!

2!

3–Kickout…”

The ref had even counted a little bit faster than normal, but Toni still managed to kick out! Quickly, both she and Io make their way to their feet, and have similar ideas, each going for a headbutt, which lands, and sends both women down to the mat, both exhausted, hurting, in their bra and panties, or thongs in Toni’s case, and clearly on their last legs in the match.
