It’s another big night here at the KOA Arena, as Celebrity MMA Champion Demi Lovato puts her title on the line against Anna Kendrick.
Alicia Vitarelli is still out with injuries she sustained against Ana Morgade, Anna Simon is filling in as backstage interviewer. She’s standing by with the challenger.
“Anna, how are you feeling heading into this big title match?” Anna Simon asks.
“I feel confident, Demi is a tough fighter, but, I feel I’m just as tough. I have a feeling that after tonight, I’ll be a champion as well.” Anna Kendrick says.
“That’s all for now, let’s throw it to our announce team of Chuck, Steve & Ivanna, take it away, guys.” Anna Simon says.
“Thank you, Anna. Steve, you put this match together, what are your thoughts?” Chuck asks.
“Chuck, actually I remember the Celebrity MMA tournament, Anna Kendrick didn’t even make it past the 2nd round, losing to eventual runner-up Selena Gomez. Anna is going to have to really step up her game if she wants to be any sort of threat to Demi Lovato. I predict Demi will make quick work of Anna Kendrick.” I say.
“Ivanna, you look like you have something to add to this, go ahead, please.”
“Chuck, I would make quick work of either of these two in a bikini contest. Steve, sweetie, let me have one of these two, please.”
I look at her and blush slightly. “Ivanna, you have an up coming title defense against Ariel Winter, and believe me, it’s not as easy as it seems. I can’t make any promises, but I’ll think about it.” I say, trying to hide my anger.
“Ok,” Chuck says, “let’s throw it back to Anna Simon who standing by with the champion...Anna...”
“Thank you, Chuck! Demi, Anna Kendrick sounds really confident, what are your thoughts?”
“Ms. Simon, Anna Kendrick fails to realize that I train in MMA everyday, this isn’t a hobby for me, this is my life. The winner of this match faces Madison Sex-Kitten in a champion vs. champion bout, and regardless of what Ms. Kendrick says, it’ll be me facing Madison, not her.” Demi says, pushing the microphone away and walking toward the octagon.
“Chuck, back to you.”
“Steve, Demi Lovato was the first celebrity you signed for this division. She sounds supremely confident, what are your thoughts?”
“Demi was the first celebrity I signed, you’re right, as she mentioned in her interview, she trains in MMA constantly. And, as her hit song suggests: ‘What’s wrong with being confident?’ Demi will prove tonight why she is the champion.”
“Ok, thanks, Steve. It’s time for our main event. Let’s watch the participants make their entrance.” Chuck says.
Anna Kendrick enters first, wearing a grey sports bra and matching shorts, and she has her red hair in a ponytail. She’s accompanied by her corner crew.
She gets inspected cageside, receives her mouth piece and enters the octagon.
Demi Lovato enters next, she is also accompanied by her corner crew. She’s wearing a black sports bra and matching shorts, and her hair is also in a ponytail.
She gets inspected cageside, receives her mouth piece and enters the octagon, her and Anna shake hands as they pass by each other.
Both women stand in their respective corners as ring announcer Karen Rogers enters the octagon.
“Ladies & gentlemen, it is now time for our main event of the evening. 5 rounds for the Celebrity MMA Championship.
“Introducing first, the challenger: from Portland, Maine, please welcome...ANNA KENDRICK!”
Anna bows and waves to the crowd.
“And her opponent: from Los Angeles, California, she is the reigning Celebrity MMA Champion, please welcome...DEMI LOVATO!”
Demi as well bows and waves to the crowd.
The referee gives final instructions, the bell rings and both women come out circling.
Demi immediately shoots in for a takedown, and is successful, taking Anna straight down to the mat.
They wrestle around for a minute when Demi finally gets dominant position and begins landing hard elbow shots, opening a small cut under Anna’s right eye.
Eventually, Demi gets up and allows Anna to get back to her feet, only to be sent crashing back down with a leg sweep.
Demi allows Anna to get back to her feet, but now Demi charges and pushes Anna back against the cage, and now begins stomping on Anna’s feet as they lock up against the cage.
Just as Demi sends Anna crashing to the mat again with a vicious hip toss, the horn sounds, ending round 1.
Both women go to their respective corners.
In Anna Kendricks’s corner:
“You look lost out there, Anna, get your head in the game. You have to make Demi work for her takedowns, right now you’re making things too easy for her. Get your head out of your ass and get in the game!”
In Demi Lovato’s corner:
“Great job so far. You keep this up and she won’t stand a chance against you.” Her corner man says, high fiving Demi.
Both women are on their feet for round 2.
The bell sounds, and both women come out circling again.
Demi connects with a hard kick to Anna’s left side, causing her to gasp and clutch at her side.
Demi quickly follows up by going for a takedown, taking Anna straight down to the mat.
After wrestling around for a few moments, Demi is able to lock in an arm bar, Anna screams out and instantly begins tapping.
The winner and still Celebrity MMA Champion...Demi Lovato
The doctor quickly comes in to check on Anna, as Demi runs around the octagon, celebrating.
