Yes. You’ll walk it off. (Requires Sta 2)

Agony shoots through your legs and back as Samira bends you over, but you grit your teeth and ignore the pain. Looking in the JumboTron, you can see her furrow her brow and tilt her head curiously as her hold fails to **** a submission out of you.

Samira leans forward, adding more of her weight to the hold and drawing a pained gasp from you, but it’s still not enough to make you tap out. She keeps it up for a few more seconds before sighing in exasperation and releasing you.

“You’re no fun at all,” she pouts. “I don’t think anyone’s ever managed to go that long in that hold without tapping. Oh well. I’m sure I can find something else to—”

She’s interrupted as you grab her ankle and pull her off-balance. Now you’re both grounded, but you have the element of surprise: the Maharani definitely didn’t expect you to be ready to fight so soon.

You quickly roll on top of her and bear down with all your weight. Agile though she may be, she’s not strong enough to dislodge you, and you see the ref’s hand rise and fall three times.

The buzzer goes off, and you roll back off her in just a moment. The two of you get back up hastily, almost racing each other to see who can stand first, both eager to go after each other once again.

“You,” says Samira admiringly, “are a lot tougher than I gave you credit for.”

You’ve won a point for a pinfall.
