WRESTLING INFORMATION
Wrestling Style: All Rounder, can wrestle just about any style, but had preferred wrestling as a Submission, but injuries to her left hand has made her adapted to the other styles more.
Alignment (Face/Tweener/Heel): Face
Years Pro: 7+
Gimmick (NEEDED): For the lack of a better word for it Samantha is a businesswoman. She uses multiple different monikers as a way of marketing herself to the fans. She has just about a moniker for every situation you can imagine, but there are two that are go to.
[ The Sinful Star *Heel Gimmick* ] During this gimmick, Samantha believes is at the top of the food chain and rightfully deserves to be at the top of the ladder and will do anything to make that a reality. By anything I'm talking about manipulating a young, impressionable talent who just happens to have family in positions of power (Marie Jones) or using sexual harassment forcibly kissing an opponent (Brittany Lohan) or coming very close to molesting them (Glory Braddock/Noel). The Gimmick evolved from a previous one: The Real Bombshell.
[ The Rogue Element *Face Gimmick* ] With a name like The Rogue Element you would probably never picture it for someone that's supposed to be a straight up face. However, Samantha is hardly a straight face kind of girl. While aspirations of making it to the top of the ladder drive her to do the best that she can do, but it isn't the main focus. The Rogue Element comes from the fact that she's an injustice fighter in the fact that she often seeks out to take down groups (i.e. Monarchy, Silas' World) who are out to "save" the business, but are really only out for themselves, corrupt authority figures (Jonathan Collins), or attempting to humble superstars that have let their ego take control (Sienna Swan, Bree Mason). The gimmick is supposed to be slightly super-heroine themed as it evolved from her former persona 'The Simply Stunning SuperGirl'.
WRESTLING STRENGTHS
Resiliency: Many people don't give Samantha the credit that she's due when it comes to hanging in during her matches, but in reality she's probably one of the toughest cookie's to crack. Throughout the years she has hardly ever tapped out during a match up. Sure it's happened, but few and far between one another most of Samantha's "submission" losses come from the fact referee ended up stopping the match after Samantha had passed out, had a limb broken or taken out of the socket for her safety. The reason for that is the fact that Samantha, has gone on record numerous times telling everyone that she is a masochist. The feeling of being in pain excites so she is not quick to tap out like others, because she rather pass out from climaxing from the excitement of the pain than to tap out ending her "fun". So in regards to pain she is like the energizer bunny she can take a beating and keep on ticking.
Natural Athleticism: Samantha was gifted an unique natural athleticism at early age. So much so that her mother quickly enrolled her in to gymnastics and would also encourage her to join the track, basketball, and softball teams before ultimately supporting her decision to join a wrestling school after finishing her Sophomore year of High School.
Submission Wrestling: Most wrestler's always have that one area where they excel at when it comes to their in ring style. For Sam it is submission wrestling which is a little ironic given the fact that Sam has admitted to being a masochist. Which might have something to do with the fact that coaches at the wrestling school that she selected specialized in submission wrestling. To which has lead to an interesting combination that has proved be very costly to her opponents. Samantha's masochist tendencies means that she has the stomach to endure her opponent's submission moves, but with her natural athleticism and submission training. She has a higher probability to reverse or counter them. To which Samantha has in the past dub herself as a "Submissionista" like a "Fashionista", but with submissions. However, this strength recently has been greatly affected by Samantha's years in the ring. (See: Wrestling Weakness - Injures).
WRESTLING WEAKNESSES
Injures: Injures are common practice in wrestling, but can also be a great equalizer for some. For Sam injures have always been one of her weaknesses when it comes to wrestling. Her first major injury actually happened before she had even started wrestling full time. At age 17, Sam tore her left ACL tendon landing awkwardly after getting slammed in to during a lay up during her school season opener for her Senior year. Samantha, missed the rest of the season, but oddly enough her left knee is one of only two areas on Samantha's body that can generate enough pain to force her to tap out. The other one is not only more well know, but her greatest weakness.
Her right hand, that had to be surgically repaired after Angela Jameson shattered it with a pair of bolt cutters during their final match against one another in GDW. Not only has the injury significantly affected Sam as far as her ring style as it left her hand severely weaker than it was before. Making it harder for Samantha to hold on to submissions, but again like her left knee it’s one of two parts of her body that can generate a pain level that Samantha cannot weather through.
Tunnel Vision: Certain aspects/opponents can have an adverse effect on Samantha, because she loses focus on what's important (the win) to achieve another desired effect. The most recent example of this behavior happened just slightly after Samantha's debut in the IWC. Where she cost herself a fatal four way match involving Lilith Evans, Brandi Angelle, and Glory (Braddock) "Noel". As she set out to bring back the real Glory Braddock instead of winning the match.
Small Stature: It's pretty evident that Samantha will struggle against opponents that are much larger than her. Unable to over power them meaning that she will have rely more on her speed and agility to best them. However, if she isn't careful she could end up running out of gas before finishing the match allowing her opponents to have their way her. Not to mention the fact that it was a much larger girl that she slammed in to that lead to her ACL injury. So it's more than possible for her larger opponents to throw her around the ring like a rag doll if she isn't careful.[/color]
WRESTLING ENTRANCE
Theme Song: "Unbreakable" By Firefly[/url]
Accompanied by: Woody Hoyt
Entrance:
The arena’s lights cut and as the room falls into complete and utter darkness a buzz starts to spread through the crowd. It feels like a lifetime that the lights are off before they start to flash in a sequence that resembles lightening. Another moment passes and as the sound of rain fills the air while white and blue confetti starts falling on both sides of the entrance way. The sound of the rain is broken up momentarily as the voice of Samantha Raine is head saying…
“Raining on your parade.”
As the crowd start to react, the sounds of Firefly's “Unbreakable” starts to play through the arena. The crowd just further erupts in to cheers as the small silhouette of Samantha makes her way on to the stage, but she isn’t alone. There is another silhouette behind her clapping his heads.
"Where are the people that accuse me? The ones who beat me down and bruise me...
They hide just out of sight, Can't face me in the light, They'll return but I'll be stronger..."
The song’s intro gives way to the chorus and as the song takes a harder edge the flashes of lighting become more violent. On the big screen the fans are treated to the iconic view of Sam as she stands in an empty as it starts to rain on her. She just looks up at the sky allowing the rain drops to pelt her face while lifting her arms up towards the sky. In the meantime, Sam along with the man that can now be identified as Woody Hoyt start to make their way down to the ring.
Philips: “Making her way to the ring from Toronto, Ontario, Canada; weighting in at one hundred and two pounds, and being accompanied to the ring by Woody Hoyt, she is… SAMANTHA RAINE!”
Before they start actually making their way down to the ring, Sam raises both of her hands up to her lips and kisses them, bending over towards the fans she acts like she is blowing kisses to everyone in attendance.
"Forget the fear it's just a crutch, That tries to hold you back...
And turn your dreams in to dust, All you need to do is just, trust...
Trust!"
As they reach the ring, Woody jumps up on to the apron while Sam walks up the ring stairs. He holds the ropes open so that she can climb in to the ring. Woody hops off the apron as Sam goes to the nearest turnbuckle. Which she climbs to the top and once again blows kisses to everyone in the arena.
