The crowd were already on their feet from Drako's initial moment, and now a standing ovation for both men began.
Nuke, however, had rolled with the momentum and was clutching his stomach.
He crawled over to Drako and.. laid his arm over for a pinfall!

Drako rolls his shoulder off the canvas again, narrowly avoiding a three count. The match continues, much to the delight of the crowd at least

Nuke groaned from the pain in his abdomen, as he replied back to Drako's earlier remark.
"Almost had you there."
The match was really heating up now, as Nuke rolled onto his stomach. It was a pain to get to his feet, but he was determined.

Drako heard that and it'd be funny if breathing weren't still difficult. Now he gets to try to fight his way to his feet, rolling to his stomach first and attempting to push himself up on all fours first, then eventually to his feet

Both men seemed to be getting to their feet at roughly the same rate, but Nuke was one limb ahead. He got to his feet as Drako was close.. and the opportunity was there to catch him on his way up.
But Nuke stepped back, allowing his opponent to get up, and waiting for the next phase in this matchup.

Finally on his feet, Drako absently pushes his hair back from his face as he turns to face Nuke. Tired but not out, the Soaring Dragon gestures for Nuke to come at him

Nuke nods and accepts the challenge as he steps forward; this time aiming a series of low kicks and high strikes, in an attempt to keep the tempo in his favour.

Drako might have told Nuke to come at him, but the low kicks caught him off guard, leaving him open to the high strikes as well, eventually backing him against the ropes

With Drako backed up in the series, Nuke then aimed a hard chop across his chest.
Payback for the one earlier!?

Woooo!
The chop rings throughout the arena and Drako's chest lightly turns red. Still winded from the last few attacks he'd caught, he grabs the top rope to remain standing, but he's going to return that favor soon

What better to follow up with, except..
A second chop attempt!

Drako's chest turns a deeper red as a second chop connects, rocking him back against the ropes. This time, however, he's ready to retaliate, swinging his right arm that had been holding the ropes as he aims to clock Nuke in the side of the head

Drako's strike was hard and true, and sent Nuke stumbling back holding his head. He turned slowly on the spot, coming around a bit like a ballerina before turning to face Damone again.

Drako knows his openings with Nuke will generally be few and far between from their history. So, time to capitalize on this one as he looks to catch Nuke and lift him just enough to drop him with an inverted atomic drop

Nuke found himself lifted up ********>" he said under his breathing, just about getting the word out his mouth.
It's a good thing that Nuke had already had the children he wanted, because that may have just stopped him having any more in the future!
