Nikki Bella (Sparkle Express Debut) versus Charli XCX

(Bantamweight)

Words: Sparkle / Results: Lookout!

R1: Nikki and Charli start the first round wary on both sides, Charli a little more agile in moving around Nikki given her speed while Nikki mainly takes a few steps here and there in her debut match. The singer takes the first few shots, however, starting with warning jabs to the face - which Nikki takes the bait on - into real shots to the belly. A good round of jabs leads to another by Charli, but is stopped by a right overhand counter to her jaw! Carefully, Nikki screws in two more straights to Charli’s belly area, then plays the rest of the round on the defensive, being sure to block as much of Charli’s remaining shots as she can before the bell rings to end the round. Nikki wins this round by sheer force on her behalf.

R2: Come the start of the second round, Charli charges in first and tries to combo her way to success, playing Nikki for a fool with jab-jab-jab-uppercut combinations to the belly area again, which the Bella Twin can block with ease, but then ending off with a cross to the cheek or a pop to the nose which catches her by surprise. After a few facial shots, Nikki has to take a step backwards and gasp for some air while Charli rushes in. Nikki has a bit more ease on the defense, fending the singer off with some slow jabs to the stomach, but the damage for the round is well done by that point. Charli wins the round, but with some lasting effects on both combatants.

R3: When both fighters come out, Nikki is noticeably slower than before, not even trying to hide her pain in her debut match. The slightly more experienced Ms. XCX focuses on this weakness, smacking Nikki around in the stomach with a focus on combos again, like jab-uppercut-jab-uppercut and 4 straight jabs, things that Nikki was never taught to prepare to block or even dodge back in training camp! The widely-considered hotter Bella Twin and current WWE Divas Champion (which is not a sanctioned title here) gets ravaged here by the British gal. Finally, after 2 minutes of a beatdown, Charli makes one bad shot which Nikki slips under and fires back with a hard uppercut to the jaw of Charli XCX! A few more seconds of swirling around lands another blow to the belly of the foreigner! But, Nikki is far too tired from the assault before to properly capitalize, and the round expires with Charli XCX the clear winner.

R4: Round 4 starts with a war of women in the center of the ring! Charli, the younger and more combination oriented fighter trades strings together to her older and power-based opponent, Nikki, who ever so quickly breaks up the chains with nasty blows to the belly and hip area of the body. Both boxers are fighting bruises and lasting pain in this environment, waiting for one wall to crumble - and crumble soon. After a blocked series of 4 belly jabs by Charli, Nikki responds with a killer jab to the nose, blood squirting from the British competitor’s cute nose. While in the commotion, the bell rings suddenly! Not to end the fight, however; just the round. Nikki wins the 4th, just barely.

R5: As the round starts, a reinvigorated Nikki smells blood - literally - and hunts Charli down like a tigress with a pound of meat. While Charli tries to fight back, it’s using Nikki’s playbook of power punches and counters, none of which works for her in the slightest, especially after her heart is taken out of the fight after the apparently-broken nose. A copied swarm of jabs to Charli’s nose and a follow-up straight to her badly bruised belly later, and she falls over in pain, unable to move from the fetal position. Nikki Bella has just won by KO5 in the second minute!

Post-fight, like her fellow stablemate Stephanie McMahon, Nikki Bella calls for a microphone to her corner.

“Hah! You all see that, live on pay-per-view? I just kicked a poor singer’s ass! So young too...only 22 years old but just another sucker in my eyes. Doesn’t have the Bella Pedigree at all, that only I have, not that loser sister of mine has. The Bella Twins...the big ol’ Bella Booty...and the Bella Desire to win! I’m sure all you papis out there want to see what I got, and all you chicas out there want to have what I got! The Bella Empire has only started, you losers in the back! Get ready to get extinct!”
