The Tournament Finale
Tarzan had nursed both his ego and his body as the next two days of the tournament continued. He knew that no one could win every match but his two defeats before King Matsuenze and his people bothered him. Nonetheless, he watched the tournament continue knowing that he had to get himself ready for the final day of the tournament where he had agreed to wrestle in a handicap match. He wasn’t sure what the handicap match would involve but he had accepted the King’s offer to wrestle in the tournament which included this match. Over these two days, he had watched Nube defeat all the warriors sent against him and Tarzan wondered if he would need to face him again.
The final day of the tournament arrived and Tarzan readied himself for the handicap match. His body felt strong and given his love for wrestling, he was ready to face whatever the challenge would be. As he made his way to the wrestling area, his body glistened in the mid day sun with the sun’s rays showing off his muscular body. He looked at the King who asked him if he was ready. Tarzan smiled saying “Yes” causing the people to shout out praises for the Jungle Lord. The King smiled and outlined that Tarzan would wrestle three men who each would tag and take turns coming in to wrestle him. If Tarzan needs only to make one of them submit to be the winner. He asks Tarzan if he will still agree to the handicap match now that he knows its’ makeup. While his body still aches from his previous match, Tarzan knows that he can’t back out and still have his honor in front of the people. He nods his head and the King signals for his opponents to come forward.
Tarzan turns to face his opponents and first he sees Mumba who has returned to the village. He flexes his guns as he faces the Jungle Lord. Next comes the giant Nube who smiles as he flexes and points at Tarzan. Finally, out comes a wrestler that Tarzan had not seen before but at 7’3” tall and 450 lbs, he easily dwarfs his two teammates. Lotam is not muscular like his two teammates and has a large gut but seems to carry himself well. The King shouts out the rules noting that each will need to tag in the other before one can leave and another enter the wrestling area. Defeat is by submission only. All move toward the wrestling area and Tarzan wonders if he should not have just left the tournament after the first day. The King gives the signal for the match to begin and Tarzan comes out wondering which of the three he will need to face first. He doesn’t wait long as Lotam comes out and circles. Lotam moves in toward Tarzan who quickly dives down and around him which causes Lotam to stagger forward at no one. The villagers laugh as he staggers. Turning around he runs at Tarzan again but once more Tarzan is too quick for him, this time diving down through his legs in a baseball slide. As he gets behind, him he jumps up with a drop kick to Lotam’s back causing him to drop to his knees. Tarzan moves in jumping on his back as he locks his legs around Lotam’s neck in a fig 4 head scissors. Lotam goes to the ground as Tarzan flexes his legs increasing the pressure around his neck. Lotam’s face turns red as he struggles to breathe and break free. Nube and Mumba shout encouragement to him as he flails around trying to break free. Finally he manages to pry Tarzan’s legs open and roll away. Quickly Tarzan gets up and does several kicks to his head and upper body as Lotam gets to his knees. Tarzan follows up with a drop kick to his upper body which sends the big man back to the ground. Tarzan grabs his big leg twisting his body over as he applies a single leg crab. Lotam screams in pain as he pounds the ground and after a few minutes finally manages to power up forcing Tarzan to release the hold. Tarzan moves in to try to grab Lotam’s leg again but this time he is met by a kick to his crotch from Lotam which sends Tarzan to his knees holding his groin. Lotam gets up and shaking out his leg he rains a series of hard arm smashes to Tarzan’s head and back forcing him to the ground. He then moves over and slaps Mumba’s hand who then comes in to wrestle.
Mumba eyes Tarzan who is now getting to his knees and comes in fast with hard forearm smashes to his head and back sending Tarzan back to the ground. Tarzan screams as his back has really not fully healed from Nube’s beating. Mumba smiles as he steps back and then comes down with a hard leg smash across the young Jungle Lord’s back. He does it several more times and then drives his knee into Tarzan’s back digging it in deep as Tarzan screams in pain. Mumba then stands and looking down at the young ape man he sits down on his back grabbing his arms as he drapes them over his knees and then grabs Tarzan’s chin cupping it in his hands applying a tight camel clutch. As he brings Tarzan’s head back, Tarzan screams in pain as he feels his back breaking. Tarzan is helpless in Mumba’s clutch but refuses to submit as Mumba applies even more pressure to the hold. Finally Mumba releases the clutch and as he gets up he stomps Tarzan’s lower back repeatedly. He then reaches down and grabbing Tarzan by his crotch and throat, lifts him up high in a gorilla press. Holding him up, he slowly turns around before throwing the Jungle Lord to the ground. Tarzan screams as his body hits the ground. As he rolls around the ground holding his body, Mumba walks over and slaps Nube who then comes in to wrestle.
Tarzan is still rolling around as Nube grabs his ankles and drags him a few feet before twisting him over in a hard tight boston crab bending the young muscled ape man’s body in half as he brings his bare feet almost to his head. Tarzan screams from the pain as Nube tortures him in the hold but he refuses to submit. Nube eventually releases the hold and stands up and over his helpless victim. He reaches down pulling Tarzan up and crotch lifting him, he drops him down across his knee in a gut buster. Tarzan thinks his gut has exploded but before he has a chance to scream, Nube gives him a second and then a third gut buster before dropping him to the ground. He smiles as he kicks at Tarzan’s body. As Tarzan rolls to his back, Nube drops down and digs his large hands deep into Tarzan’s abs in a double ab claw. Tarzan screams as he feels Nube’s hands digging deep into his gut. Nube rocks Tarzan’s body back and forth as he digs the claw in deeper and then flexing his guns he lifts Tarzan up by the ab claw holding him up by his gut only by the claw. Tarzan screams as he feels his guts being torn out of him. Nube then drops him down and reapplies the claw digging in even deeper into his eight pack abs. Tarzan’s body almost convulses with the pain but still the Jungle Lord refuses to submit. Nube then gets up but as he does he rips off the Jungle Lord’s loin cloth after which he goes over and slaps Lotam to come in to replace him.
Lotam slowly makes his way to the young Jungle Lord and as he reaches him he delivers hard stomps all over his body. He grabs Tarzan legs and spreading them apart he stomps Tarzan crotch. Tarzan grabs himself almost in a ball as he screams but Lotam continues to stomp at his body. Then Lotam reaches down and grabbing Tarzan he jerks him up high and tight into a bearhug. Tarzan screams as his body is squeezed in his grip. Lotam increases his grip and squeeze each time that Tarzan screams and shakes the Jungle Lord back and forth as he walks around showing off the ape man to the villagers. He then moves close to Mumba and slapping him in, he passes the naked Jungle Lord to him as Mumba now jerks Tarzan back and forth in his bearhug. He parades around holding the flailing ape man in his grasp as he flexes and increases the pressure to the hold. He then moves close to Nube to bring him in and passes the Jungle Lord off to him as Nube now jerks the young ape man up into his bearhug. Tarzan screams in agony going from one to the other’s bearhug and his body flails as he is crushed in their hugs. Nube shakes him back and forth bouncing him up and down like a rag doll. Still Tarzan refuses to submit and finally Nube drops the Jungle Lord to the ground as he walks over to talk to his partners. Finally, he slaps Lotam’s hand who then walks toward the Jungle Lord and reaching him, he grabs his silken hair jerking him up. He laughs as Tarzan stands and staggers before him. He looks at the crowd and his teammates as he twists the young ape man around and up onto his shoulders in a torture rack. Tarzan’s screams are heard immediately, his arms and feet flailing, as Lotam bounces his bent body over his shoulders. Nube screams instructions to him and Lotam moves to quickly cover Tarzan’s mouth to prevent him from shouting out a submission. He then stomps around the ground adding more pressure to the rack as he bends Tarzan in half over his shoulders. Tarzan’s eyes fill with tears from the pain and his arms flail as he tries to mumble his submission. But they have not finished with the Jungle Lord and Mumba followed by Nube take their turns torturing the young Jungle Lord in the rack. Nube drops the ape man as he slaps Lotam in again. He walks over to Tarzan who quietly mumbles “no more please.” But Lotam only laughs as he jerks the young naked Jungle Lord up and into another bearhug. The pain awakens the weaken Tarzan as he screams and pounds the back of this giant. His head tossed back, his arms flailing, he screams as Lotam shakes him back and forth like a rag doll. He is broken, his body crushed and finally he screams out his submission “I SUBMIT, PLEASE NO MORE.” Lotam ignores his cries as he crushes him into his chest but with one more squeeze, he finally releases his victim and the three men lift their arms in victory.
Tarzan lays on the ground as his body tries to absorb the pain that it has experienced. He slowly makes it to his knees, his body racked with pain. He tries to make it to his feet but instead he falls back to his knees as his chest heaves trying to take in air. He has known pain but this has been more than he has ever experienced except with the great apes. Soon he feels someone’s arms helping him up. It is Mumba who puts his arm around him as he helps Tarzan to stand. He congratulates the Jungle Lord for the fight he put up and tells him that he hopes they can wrestle again in future tournaments. Tarzan smiles and thinks that, yes, he will wrestle again. Mumba then hands Tarzan his loin cloth as they make their way to his hut with Mumba thinking that he will yet have the Jungle Lord’s ass.
