Girls scrapping adds some heat and aggressiveness to Nica Noelle’s Rivals 2, especially in two of the scenes. Some choking and face slapping heightens the drama in a scene between Trinity Post and Mz Berlin, and a slap-happy, realistic wrestling battle adds drama to the great sex scene between Samantha Ryan and Ariel X.

Noelle’s all-girl releases are known for the subtle textures of softer, loving lesbian sex ... the caresses, the deep kissing, the sweet cunnilingus. It’s all still here, but the added composition of chicks in battle makes this decidedly different and welcome.

Elexis Monroe munches down on Zoe Britton and the always high voltage Nikita Denise has her way with Mina Meow in the other scenes, but it’s the two bookend scenes mentioned above that make this one worth keeping.
