Jay Blue Lightning vs Marcus Damone [Octane #16]

[JayLightning]

With the front face lock, the Eclipse found himself in a place he preferred. With the lift, the Eclipse would shift his weight and get himself to fall right back down forward. With an arm still around the other's head from the lift, Jay would look for a counter with a crank of the head while freeing himself from the other's. A plan in mind for the sweet sound of silence.

Marcus is getting a lesson in why Jay has lasted so long here, as The Eclipse shifts his weight and pulls Marcus down into the front facelock instead. The surprise of the counter alone leaves Marcus stranded for the moment  

[JayLightning]

With the freedom gained, Jay would slide his free arm underneath Marcus' own to rest on the back of his neck. With his set up, he would aim for a rolling neckbreaker to drop them both on the ring with now a chance to try and set up his choke hold he had found himself enjoying.  

[Drako Damone]

this is new territory for Marcus, as thus far GBL is putting up more of a fight than Goldberg did in his debut, as well as anyone else since then. Finding himself grounded with a neckbreaker, Marcus is clearly a bit more off his game than he's ever been before  

[JayLightning]

With both of them grounded, GBL saw his moment to lock in his reverse kata ha jime chokehold, but he instead released the hold and found himself crawling back and sitting up on his knees to stare down his opponent. Showing off? Not quite. His way of showing just what he believed: himself to be the top of the food chain.  

[Drako Damone]

Marcus is free finally. He rolls over and gets up to a crouch, finding the former champion staring at him. This is a test he should have expected, someone to force him to go the distance. He stands up straight and cracks his neck. Time to try again  

[JayLightning]

Seems like Marcus was ready to go once more with GBL getting up to his feet to eye his opponent. Before long, an attempt for a lock-up to begin the next scuffle.  

[Drako Damone]

Marcus has no problem going into yet another lock up with Jay, but he's elected to be a bit more aggressive this time as he looks to hit a quick knee lift to the gut of the Eclipse
