It's Rhea Ripley vs Jade Cargill!

As Cathy Kelley pulled herself, soaking wet and dripping from the pool a pair of stagehands could be seen quickly running out onto the top of the stage, pushing what looked to be a tall pedestal with a purple velvet sheet over the top. While whatever was under the sheet couldn't be seen by the audience it was obvious that the final prize of the tournament lay under that sheet, the new AHW Championship! A whisper spread throughout the audience that grew into a murmur and finally built to a cacophony as the audience stood and strained, all looking to see if they could catch a glimpse of the title despite it very obviously being obscured. The chatter grew louder and louder until...

"THIS IS MY BRUTALITY!"

The explosion that was Rhea Ripley's entrance music silenced the crowd for a moment as the opening bars overwhelmed the cacophony of voices and for a moment all in the arena seemed stunned by the volume of it. As people's hearing returned though the chorus of boos slowly started to build in the anticipation of Rhea making her appearance. But the goth from Australia made sure to make the audience wait, staying backstage as the crowd's boos got louder and louder until finally she stepped out onto the stage and the crowd's derision grew to an all time loud. Rhea was the epitome of elegance and gothic glamour, made up with her usual dark makeup that tonight included black lipstick and her long black hair hung down to her mid back. her long black dress had a high neckline that covered up most of her bust but made up for it with the long split up the leg of her dress that showed off her long, tattooed leg. On her feet her delicate looking black high heels with thing straps that ran all the way up her legs to just below her knees.

Rhea looked around at the crowd with barely concealed contempt before her gaze fixed on the pedestal with it's velvet cover. She took a single step towards it but stopped with a small smile that said she knew she would be seeing that title later. Not just seeing it but holding it. With a smug smile Rhea strutted down to the ring, enjoying the endless boos that were raining down on her before pausing by the side of the ring to flex to the audience, her thick muscular arms glistening under the harsh arena lights before she jumped up onto the ring apron and hanging off the ropes in her usual manner, showing she could be surprisingly dexterous even in her high heels.

"Rhea Ripley is looking amazing tonight Madden. I don't think there is a woman in this company who can match her physicality." Said King as he watched Rhea bend low to duck into the ring.

"You may be right there King, Rhea is a specimen I'd love to study. But she may yet meet her match in Jade Cargill. She has been just as dominant so far in this tournament." replied Mark Madden

"I wouldn't say that Mark, Jade struggled against Trish Stratus in the second round, sure she is maybe the greatest woman of all time but Michin was no slouch and Rhea just walked over her."

"That's true as well King" replied Madden. "But that's clearly made Rhea cocky. You know who else got cocky? Trish Stratus and she left the arena in just her bra and panties that night."

"So you're money's on Jade tonight? is that what you're saying?" teased Jerry Lawler

"Don't go putting words in my mouth King, I'm keeping my bets open" finished Madden with a huff.

Back inside the ring Rhea was leaning lazily against the ropes, one long leg exposed by the split in her dress was crossed casusally over the other, showing off her muscular thigh crossed with intricate tattoos. Rhea's music died away and for as few seconds there was nothing but the torrent of boos in the arena until the first cords of Jade Cargill's music started and the boos became cheers.

Jade Cargill walked out onto the stage looking like a movie star stepping out onto the red carpet. Her long white hair hung around her shoulders and her evening gown was dazzlingly white with golden flecks splashed across it and a neckline that plunged dangerously down between her cleavage and almost to her naval, the two sides kept together with a multitude of fragile looking golden chains. The front of her dress was shorter than the rear, allowing a look at the only pair of legs in AHW possibly more muscular than Rhea's and her feet were encased in sparkling gold stilettos. Jade looked around at the crowd with an award winning smile before turning and flexing her back muscles, showing off her physique as the audience drooled over the sight of her.

As she turned back around Jade saw the velvet covered podium and walked over to it, covering the distance between her and it in two quick steps. Once there she lifted a corner of the velvet and peered underneath it before looking around at the crowd again with a mischievous smile. in the ring Rhea regarded Jade with a contemptuous raise of her eyebrow but then looked away as if bored of the proceedings as Jade made her way down to the ring. The audience held out hands for Jade and she took the time to shake hands and high five with everyone she could reach. When she reached the side of the ring Jade used the metal steps to slowly climb to the ring apron, taking her time unlike Rhea and slowly lowered herself under the middle rope and slid into the ring. As she paused to pose again Rhea looked at her wrist as if checking a watch that wasn't there, losing patience with Cargill's theatrics.

Once the two women were in the ring they started to slowly circle each other, Rhea looking focused now while Jade was still reveling in the fans cheers. As her music died however her smile dropped and she kicked her shoes off, leaving herself bare foot to wrestle in where Rhea looked poised in her high heels. The two women looked ready to finally get the finals of the tournament underway and decide who will be the first ever AHW Champion!
