WTA meets WWE: The UK Smackdown Vol. 2 Natalie Eva Marie (BBU: 1-0, 1 KO) vs. Heather Watson (BBU Debut) (Los Ingobernales vs. WTA/BBU Independent)
Venue: Edgbaston Priory Club Location: Birmingham, West Midlands, England, UK
BEFORE: Los Ingobernales' European spring break continues but after winning little fans back in Eastbourne, Natalie Eva Marie heads up north to the second largest city in England where she's set to clash gloves with the other top British tennis prospect in Guernsey-born Heather Watson. The 23-year-old promises to avenge the Laura Robson disaster from last week but her feisty comments on social media make absolutely no impression on the WWE diva who vows to cause more havoc among the WTA-backed opposition. "Well, Eastbourne was a lot of fun! I don't understand why they refused to serve me free drinks after I whooped Laura's butt! All is not lost, though! I don't know much about Heather, but I don't need to! I'm still the superior woman for all these pro athletes who think they can expose my drill. Laura learned the bitter truth the hard way, and so Heather will learn too!"
BBU TV's Georgie Thompson officially disagrees with the redhead's arrogance, but she can't take Watson's performance for granted tonight. In fact, most experts think that Laura is the more skilled boxer, and the lingering wrist injury has set her back more than anything else. But Hevva's a true fighting spirit, even when outmatched physically, she will keep plugging along until her tank runs out dry. That's the memo Georgie received from Beevers Babes' head coach Denise Lewis who helped the tennis pro in the gym earlier this week - but who simply couldn't ignore Jade Ewen's rise to the flyweight title bout and stayed behind in the Cardiff HQ. That's a tough break for the Guernsey girl, but she still eyeballs the dyed redhead with utmost disdain during the pre-fight introductions.
Natalie Eva Marie wears stars & stripes-themed bikini (pictured) and black gloves. Long red hair tied in a loose ponytail. Heather Watson wears a violet bikini set and white gloves. Long black hair tied in a custom ponytail. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the welterweight division.
Round 1: Since Heather's an unknown quantity, Natalie doesn't waste any time in ripping into her guts from the bell which immediately puts the local favorite under heavy pressure. After all the WWE diva showed plenty of raw power in her destruction of Laura Robson the other day and even if Heather inherited the UK #1 spot by default her pre-fight talk indicated more mean intentions than anticipated. Natalie reckons she can pound the younger girl back to the ropes quickly, but Watson refuses to buckle and responds in a classic war of attrition fashion that enables her to spike the diva's cheeks from both sides before a piercing hook crashes into her chest and wobbles her back to the Birmingham's crowd delight. However, Heather fails to stamp her authority even further since Eva displays excellent footwork skills and dances around the British aerial attack before stopping it with a counter hook in the mouth just as the clock expires.
Round 2: Watson's up for this boxing thing and catches the redhead off guard early in the second; she rips a couple of sinking hooks on the liver area before an uppercut switch bounces off the rack and slams the American on the chin. Natalie struggles to stretch her elbows in the opening minute, and Watson forces her to soak up more midsection punishment however she stays in the mid-ring exchange and makes Heather groan in discomfort when she rifles a quick one-two on the temples and dekes to the side. The superior movement comes to the fore and leaves Watson exposed in mid range after that; the punches begin to stack up on her face, and Natalie maintains the aerial flurry of leather that eventually breaks down the Guernsey girl's resistance. But, she escapes the full diva wrath and ends the round in a controlled retreat rather than getting trapped on the ropes.
Round 3: Both girls pick each other off over the top, and Heather's got a mean punch on her which leaves a nasty shiner under the diva's left eye. However, the biggest shot of the exchange wobbles the tennis pro when Natalie squashes her lips with a hard left hook and adds a right hand on the ear to shake the brunette on her heels. She finally manages to pinch Watson back to the ropes after a jabbing flurry punishes the chest and throws the Guernsey girl off balance. The Birmingham crowd tries to urge their favorite into a similar brawling comeback they witnessed in the second round, but Eva Marie keeps her rival on the back foot and delivers more bruising punches up the middle that crash into Heather's face and leave her sagging behind a tight earmuff in the final minute. The WWE diva tries to barge into her chest even after the bell but is quickly wrestled off by the ref and earns herself a jeering response from the audience.
Round 4: Natalie glances over at the heavy-breathing opponent during the interval but Heather's ready for the comeback and ignores the defensive pleas; she jumps into a collision course with the redhead and gets spun around on the spot when the diva blasts her across the mouth and adds a ripping left hook on the guts. She winces in pain and wobbles forward moments later, but the redhead immediately slams her on the chin and seeks more head hunting punishment that sends Heather reeling into the ropes amid a dwindling response from the crowd. Merciless ribcage pounding drops her guard down the stretch but Eva Marie's fully into her face regardless and keeps hammering dominant leather on the body that shuts the Guernsey comeback off completely come the final minute and leaves the 23 year old trembling at the bell and hugging her aching midsection with Natalie shouting back at her in All Red Everything mode!
Round 5: Heather finally tries to bide some time in mid-distance, but Natalie seeks a quick finish now and walks the tennis pro down via superior footwork before blasting her on the chest to set up a quick piercing uppercut on the jaw. Watson's guard collapses on the spot, and she never embraces the looming right hook that bursts into her mouth moments later... AND DOWN GOES HEVVA!!! The Birmingham crowd is silenced on the spot, but the Guernsey girl tries to get back on her feet as quickly as possible despite apparent dizziness taking over... that's a rookie mistake according to Georgie Thompson, and Heather has all the time in the world to drag the count a little longer especially fighting in front of the British crowd. But she doesn't, and Eva Marie quickly steers her shots into the bruised face rendering the high guard completely useless... Watson is backed into the ropes and can't respond at all with the diva's wrath running the show now and snapping the long black ponytail back & forth UNTIL HEVVA GOES DOWN IN THE CORNER for the second time and this time it's serious... she fails to shake off the dizziness before seven and needs to wrap her arms around the ropes in order to get up at nine... she shakes her head but vows to continue after a repeated call from the ref... Natalie wants to get it over and done with and shoves the man in charge to the side before blasting a left hook in the mouth and shutting the brunette's eyes with a measured right uppercut on the jaw... NO WAY BACK FOR HEVVA ANYMORE... she collapses flat on her face at the diva's feet and blubbers into spasms of defeat as the redhead climbs the ropes and performs a flawless backflip to celebrate her second successive BBU victory! KO5 Natalie Eva Marie!!!
AFTER: "The best you got? Really?", Eva Marie grabs the announcer's mic and plants her foot on the fallen Guernsey girl's back before letting the Birmingham crowd know she has to stop tearing the UK tennis legions apart and looks for a more formidable opponent for the third bite at the cherry next weekend! "I know wrestling ain't that popular in Europe, but surely all those skinny model tramps would love to take a full-blooded woman like me on? Am I right or am I right?", she laughs while dwelling on the patient support from the audience but Georgie Thompson suggests we might witness a real international bout next time the BBU fanbase gets to see Eva Marie in action:
"Enough with making our top pro athletes look bad! Laci Kay Somers is a pain in the ### already, and we don't need a redhead dye to follow suit! Hevva was too inexperienced and tried to brawl herself to glory while she should have outsmarted the diva bytch pure and straightforward. It's a real shame Denise Lewis refused to help out tonight and prefers to gear Jade Ewen up for the flyweight title. Well, guess the Los Ingobernales holiday plan is nothing but total success but let's hope someone still kicks Natalie's butt before she heads back to America! Stay tuned!"
Final result: Natalie Eva Marie def. Heather Watson KO5.
