January 26, 2024,
Be confident.
You will be able to cut the mustard.
And your opponent in half.
If that is what you choose to do.
In fully competitive female wrestling, body scissors never go out of style. Yes, learn the most important move with the headlock, go to your local Dojo or MMA studio and learn Jiu-Jitsu but always keep something in mind.
Add and keep scissors on your menu.
There are stars in our industry who have completely mastered them. For decades.
Back in the snail mail days, along with the body pin, they used to be the most important staples of women’s wrestling.
The wrestling world has evolved.
Now, you will most likely need a combination hold, securing the head area or using an arm bar to marry to your scissor hold. The female athletes in our industry often have abs of steel, so no matter how great your scissors are, you will have a hard time submitting with one hold.
Remember that.
Time for some motivation.
It is one thing to hear how something works, it is another thing to read about it in live action.
Here are two excerpts from our library of other articles where our female grapplers applied those scissors to perfection.
ISAMAR VS DAISY DUCATI

Both beautiful girls begin on their knees.
Daisy sits with her legs spread out wide making no pretense she is about to scissor Isamar.
Isamar smiles, in admiration saying to watch out for those scissors. Good advice Isamar. Especially for you since we will be filming from the sidelines.
Ready, set, go.
Daisy immediately attacks by grabbing both of Isamar’s arms and pulling her forward. She then pulls Isamar’s head down low and then applies a tough, tight floor to sitting body scissor. Isamar is in anguish but fighting to escape.
We’ve said over and over, the floor to sitting body scissor is a weak move. The experienced opponent will escape it and be right on top of you. Here, Daisy seems to sense that and, right on cue, she quickly slides the hold into a side body scissor and applies a brutal Triangle Choke. It is too well applied and Isamar taps out. That was a shocker. The two camera people in the room go “oh”.
Back to the present.
That was an exceptional example of applying the scissor hold and more important, here, then San Francisco star Daisy Ducati supplemented it with another hold.
Let’s look at another.
DAISY VS BELLA
“The San Francisco stars introduce themselves before the camera.
Daisy is extremely confident. She asks Bella, “Ready to get whipped again?”
Oh, my.
Bella leaps at Daisy’s neck, pushes her backwards but Daisy is ready for her. She traps Bella in a brutal floor to sitting body scissors. The beautiful brunette howls in pain and gives.
Oops. That only took 20 seconds.
1-0 for Daisy (20 seconds).
Time to engage.
Daisy is smiling, on her knees and takes the more passive approach, waiting for Bella to come to her. The shapely starlit does and Daisy simply maneuvers her into a Guillotine Choke. For a moment. Then lets it go. The slender beauty circles Bella, who gives up her back, encases her in a rear naked choke and body scissors. Double squeezes and its “Goodnight Irene”.
2-0 for Daisy (56 seconds).”
Okay, one more real life Daisy Ducati example.
DAISY VS LEAH
Earlier that day, Leah saw Daisy wrestle Isamar and watched how Daisy so effectively used her legs for scissors, so Leah is going to try and avoid that.
The two Internet stars begin on their knees.
They move cautiously knowing that the other wrestler is very experienced. Daisy makes the first lunge for the head and neck area and misses. The British wrestler makes her lunge and does not. She clasps Daisy in a firm headlock, forcefully takes her down to the mats, falls on top of Daisy’s torso and squeezes mightily.
This girl knows all of the right moves.
Too, her body is shapely, feminine but very strong thick.
Daisy tries to kick out of the hold but can’t. She taps out. That was quick.
1-0 for Leah (1:06).
Leah laughs, “I’m like, those legs are not getting me yet”.
So, she was indeed thinking about Daisy’s scissors. Let’s see how Daisy responds. As a wrestler she has a lot of pride.
Once again, they engage slowly. This time Daisy is aggressive charging after Leah’s head and neck area. She succeeds in pulling Leah towards a floor to sitting body scissor. That is always risky. If you miss, your opponent is right on top of you.
Daisy missed.
Leah is right on top of her.
Fortunately for Daisy, she was wise enough to scissor one of Leah’s legs to prevent a full mount but she is fighting from the bottom.
They bear hug one another in struggle. Daisy is strong enough to turn Leah over and now Daisy is on top. Leah has enough experience to know that she should immediately scissor one of Daisy’s legs to prevent a full mount. So she does. The right one.
They have reached a stalemate.
Daisy is on top but captured in a form of a headlock. Leah is on the bottom with Daisy pressuring her from the top.
This goes on for at least a minute. Something has to give. Sweat is glistening off of their bodies on this warm San Jose day. The stalemate continues.
Leah is the first one to blink.
She loses control of Daisy’s right leg, who now moves towards a full mount.
Now, Leah also loses her headlock.
Daisy is quietly relentless. She continues to gently attack Leah’s head and neck area.
She then places Leah in her infamous scissors but Leah entangles Daisy’s ankle so that she cannot fully stretch out.
Daisy breaks the ankle lock and tightens up her scissor. She is now squeezing Leah’s head in a lock. Double submission holds are always formidable. Leah taps out.
Daisy ties it at 1-1 (6:23).
Wonderful comeback.
As you can see, Daisy once again applied a double hold.
How can you make those scissors stronger?
Squats and legs presses at the gym.
So, the next time you prepare for a match, think scissors.
Apply them effectively with a combination hold and you will have you opponent completely relieved to tap out.
