July 11, 2023,
Both careers have been spectacular.
We were aware of that because we followed both of them. With delight.
The intriguing aspect to this match was that, before it was scheduled, we never thought Samantha Grace and Kait Snow would ever meet on the grappling mats.
Samantha is a tanned So. Cal beauty who primarily plied her trade in the fantasy realm.
Kait snow was a Nor. Cal girl who wrestled a lot at Academy against some stiff competition, like super star Isamar and San Jose tough girl, Olivia D’Angelo.
Based upon that alone, we expected Kait to win.
FCI interviewed both of them extensively. No two girls could be any more different than these stars. In terms of lifestyle and experiences.
Good to know.
Now it time to wrestle.
SAMANTHA GRACE VS KAIT SNOW
A little unusual, Samantha and Kait are both wearing black leotards.
As they begin, with slow movements, Kait immediately begins to try and scissor Samantha. Though more experienced, Kait recently lost weight and doesn’t appear to have the strength that she had, at a heavier weight, when we worked with her last time. Still, she is higher skilled than Samantha and we will see if that is enough to carry her through.
Samantha is stronger than Kait and doesn’t appear to be under duress. Unfortunately, the Southern Cal beauty just doesn’t appear to have an offensive plan. At least not yet. She uses her right arm strength to literally sling Kait around until she breaks the hold.
They struggle for a bit until Kait applies a fairly weak floor to sitting body scissor. Samantha once again lifts the smaller Kait, up and off the mats, before she lets her back down.
They struggle more. Then the two decide to break apart.
Once re-engaged, Kait has made the decision to continue to fight from the floor, though her legs do not appear strong enough for a scissor. Which she tries around Samantha’s waist, but Samantha appears to be unfazed. We had a question about Samantha in our minds.
Where is her offense?
She continues to react to what Kait does without attacking Kait in any fashion.
Kait, from the bottom, finally has Samantha bent over, within a mid-body scissor and squeezes as hard as she can and Samantha taps out.
1-0 for the blonde.
When they re-engage, Samantha tries a wrap-around headlock that doesn’t fully enclose, but it does knock Kait down to the mats.
Once again, Samantha is on top, in a position of strength but doesn’t appear to know what to do with her advantage. Kait continues to fight Samantha off with her legs and it is intriguing how Kait has spent so much time on her back and yet, up to this point, has not been submitted.
Once again, Samantha willingly breaks away from the hold.
As they engage, Samantha turns and gives up her back. Kait, a mat war veteran, immediately pounces on the opportunity and captures Samantha from behind. Kait has a tendency to make the most of her opportunities.
The Nor Cal girl captures Samantha in a side body scissor and for good measure, adds a two arm headlock and semi-choke from the top.
Samantha is in trouble.
Up until this point, the tanned brunette has not shown great escape capabilities. Still, as the expression goes, she attacks the problem, which is the upper issue of Kait’s headlock choke.
Samantha tries to pry Kait’s hands apart. She has temporary success.
She picks the lock.
Undaunted, Kait responds by locking Samantha up in a semi-full nelson type clutch while she maintains the body scissor.
Samantha continues to struggle.
Kait now comes back up top to secure that dreaded headlock choke again. Samantha has had enough and taps out.
2-0 for Kait.
As the next round begins, Samantha attempts the one arm wrap around headlock, which Kait easily fights off, and Kait is consistent in trapping Samantha in a floor to sitting body scissor.
Still, Samantha is on top but she can’t seem to do anything with her position of strength. As Kait fights from the bottom, the two wrestle with one another’s wrists. We want to scream, “Fall forward Samantha”. In that way, even just with gravity, she could attempt a smother.
Kait keeps the scissor, but doesn’t have the leg strength, so Samantha lifts her off of the mat floor and tosses her to the side.
The hold is broken.
The two readjust and re-position themselves to go at it again.
As the engage, to our surprise, this time Samantha attacks and secures Kait in a tight headlock and takes the blonde down to the mats. Most important, the gorgeous, tanned, shapely brunette lands on top.
This is an ideal opportunity for Samantha. The best she has had so far.
What in the world is she going to do with it?
Kait struggles underneath and kicks her way out of the hold. Great opportunity missed by Samantha.
They part and get ready to re-engage.
Samantha tries for the one armed wrap around headlock again but this time Kait is ready for it. She blocks Samantha’s move and traps Samantha in a headlock of her own, as Samantha is bent over.
They struggle.
Samantha soon breaks the hold.
Up 2-0, Kait is in no rush as the clock is winding down.
In the second part of the match, Samantha is continuing to be the aggressor but unfortunately appears to have no real plan or experience to makes things happen. Fantasy wrestling and competitive wrestling are tremendously different.
Samantha forces Kait down to the mats and on her back once more.
Though she is certain to lose the match, is it possible for the Southern California starlit to secure at least one submission?
She keeps pushing forward on Kait who is content to shield Samantha off with her legs.
It works.
The match is over.
Kait wins 2-0.
Kait would have a very successful day, defeating another wrestler who kept body slamming her.
Here, she methodically kept Samantha at bay and made the most of her opportunities.
This is one of the reasons why Kait Snow was a star during her era.
