Teddy Ruxpin VS Yogi Bear By Trevor Lake and Brian Sapinski "Ladies and gents, Trevor here again to bring you another exciting match in Standard League competition today, with a good looking matchup in the works between Teddy Ruxpin, and Yogi Bear, in a normal mask and snorkel contest. Helping me again is Brian. Good morning, Brian." "Yes, good morning, and we have another interesting matchup ready to start here. Here are two guys who really try to avoid the fight, but hold their own in almost any situation imaginable. Being quick thinkers, we'll see how outfoxes who." "And it looks like we'll find out in a hurry as both guys dive in. This is basically bear against bear in this contest, even if Teddy refers to himself as an Illiop. Yogi has more strength, but Teddy tends to be more cool, in my view. In any case, the two of them are jockeying for position some feet away from each other, to see who breaks first." "And even from this distance, you can see some of the things that we just talked about. Yogi seems a little more edgy to make a move here. Teddy's just kind of slowly swimming around, almost stalking to make the first move." "They have to be careful in this situation to not size up too long, especially the one with the lower breathhold, which tests indicate is Teddy. But Yogi doesn't seem to care about this, as he's now trying to charge for an area just slightly above and in front of his opponent. Let's see what happens." "Now Teddy begins his approach, and the two meet quickly. Yogi tries for a quick kick, but a nice block by Teddy. Now Teddy's trying to reach up and grab Yogi's feet to pull him back down to his level." "Yogi's just a little too strong for that at this point in the fight though, and he's just nailed Teddy with a double axehandle, which sends Teddy down about a foot and a half. Yogi's quickly moving down to try to make a quick finish out of this fight." "He's got Teddy dazed enough that he can really combo up. No, check that, Teddy snaps out of it quickly and spins behind him as he comes down. Yogi misses with his charge and now Teddy grabs for him in a full nelson." "Teddy's got the move locked in pretty good... if he can keep it up, he might have this. Oh oh... Teddy's face is straining hard... he's been forced to let go of the move and come up for air! Too bad for the Illiop. Yogi's in hot pursuit though." "Teddy makes it up quickly and takes his breath. He's scanning for where Yogi is-- too late! Yogi reaches up from under and pulls the same ankle grab Teddy failed with earlier. And Teddy almost took in a mouthful right there." "Yogi managed to take his breath, as well, so they both have refilled lungs. Teddy, thinking quickly, met Yogi with a major elbow to the head, and now Yogi's the one disoriented. Teddy's now trying to set up what looks like a triangle chokehold. I think this is his finisher, folks. Can he slap it on?" "Yogi sees it coming, and he quickly kicks off, he wants no part of that one, folks. Now he's taking a side stance and waiting to see what Teddy does next." "They're still not very deep, only about 10 feet from the surface. What's this... I'm surprised to see this, now Teddy's taken the offensive, making a charge of his own. But Yogi just cooly dodges it. Now what... what the bloody hell?! Yogi just whipped a picnic basket out of nowhere! Does he intend on having a light snack mid-match?" "No way, Trevor. He showed me this before. That basket is loaded. And he's fixing to take a swing at Teddy with it and end this himself. He's got the opening, he's waiting for Teddy to turn around..." "Teddy turns around, and Yogi swings.. but misses completely as Teddy must've had that one scouted and ducked at the last moment. Yogi swung a complete 180, and he's a bit dizzy. Teddy's going for that triangle again... and I think he's got it locked in!" "Yogi's lost the basket, his hands are in no position to pry Teddy off. He's shaking for some opening, but Teddy's got it locked in tight. Now Teddy's got the legs wrapped, too, and is really applying the leverage. And there's the snap, Yogi's passed out from his arm ripping out of its socket. This one is over!" "I have to admit, I'm surprised Teddy had the grapefruits to rip a man's arm out of the socket. This fight went about 6:30. And we gotta go, everyone! Till next time!"
