Innovators, as at all times.

She’s simply tapping that toe, lulling her opponent right into a false sense of safety, after which BAM! Ya kicked. Narvaez adopted with ground-and-pound to safe the end, however I wager she may have walked that one off. I do know I wouldn’t be attempting to stand up after consuming a shot like that.
