Page 182 – Valentine VS. Carpenter
Sara and Xtina are off to a fast start. Â They show that they’re evenly matched, giving as good as they get. Â This is setting the tempo of this match. Â Both girls have their fans and with broad strokes, I’d say that Xtina gets fan appeal through her personality and Sara gets her through her sexy antics, like we see in panel 2. Â We’ve had the benefit of seeing Sara wrestle before against Sun. Â She didn’t do too well in that match, but she might just do a little bit better with the TV tournament at stake. This match continues on Friday!
Be sure to vote and check out the fab picture of Sun by Amy Letts of the webcomic, Epic Fail. Â Thanks Amy!
“Sassy Schoolgirl” Sara Valentine VS “Canadian Dynamite” Xtina Carpenter..
“Sassy Schoolgirl” Sara Valentine, is can use dirty tactics..the problem is he weight, she is lighter than Xtina Carpenter and also Xtina got strenght advantage over Sara. look at panel 1: Xtina got upper body muscle than Xtina.. another problem.. if Sara Valentine missed the “ASS” After School Special, Xtina can quickly execute the sharpshooter.. as I know that Sara Valentine also is not fast.. as we see her against “Shinobi” “Lil Dragon” Sun Wong.. Sun really destroyed “Sassy Schoolgirl” Sara Valentine.. and don’t forgot how Sara went to win, to qualify on the TV Tournament, by beating Shannon McCourt.. in which winning against Shannon McCourt.. is a something you can say.. Shannon McCourt, is also a ring technician and good in positioning, if she’s in trouble.. winning against her is something..
Â
“Canadian Dynamite” Xtina Carpenter, got 65% advanatge overall against Sara Valentine.. Strenght and weight advanatage, I can say, she’s a semi high flyer too, she’s a former cheerleader. I guess she can make a moonsault flip. I guess the disadvanatge to Xtina is the street smart survival tactics of Sara Valentine..
even with Xtina Carpenter got the advanatage…Â Â Â BOOOOOOO!!!!! XTINA!!! BOOOOOOO!!!!! look at her at panel 1.. she’s not pretty..
Â
Panel 1: DAMN!  “Sassy Schoolgirl” Sara Valentine Hot.. like Rumble Roses XX Hot… A.K.A. “Candy Cane”
Panel 2: heheh.. “Sassy Schoolgirl” Sara Valentine making fun.. heheh.. I kinda think many of the audience love it..
Panel 3-5: Evenly match up..
Â
Compare this first minute of the match to the first minute  Sun VS Sara’s match..Â
Sara Valentine did same tactics on Sun in which she want to collar elbow tie up.. instead Sun, poke Sara eye used strike hits, I think that’s was the first turning point.. now here Sara using same preferred offense the collar elbow tie up.. so Xtina follow up.. I may guess, Sara Valentine initial first move is a collar elbow tieup in which, she can plan out.. I guess, Sara used the same tactics in which Shannon McCourt bite and end up on the dust.. Collar elbow tieup is the common first move by wrestlers, is to know the strenght of the opponent, or make an offense.. it turn to psych up.. know your opponent or making offense.. Â
Example Collar elbow tieup.. Episode 38.. Sabrina and Brooke, Collar elbow tieup.. I guess Brooke initiate the collar elbow tieup on Sabrina, coz Brooke knows she’s strong in which she could come up an offense..Â
Â
Let’s go to Panel 3: Collar elbow tie up.. Panel 4: “Sassy Schoolgirl” Sara Valentine got her first offense move which is the headlock..Panel 5: Xtina Carpenter Countered it to a headscissors. by the time Sara escape, she can already know that Xtina’s strenght in offense, and her own weak side.
Â
In the case of Sun, she don’t used collar elbow tieup. coz she’s light weight.. if a lightweight uses collar elbow tieup against a heavy opponent, Sun will be a destroy by powerful moves.. Sun used strikes, pure offense coz Sun is confident in her speed..
Â
In the case of Sara.. she risk it just to gain some insight of her opponent. strenght level, tecnical skills.. in this case, Sara already got on the technical skill.. So Iguess, she’ll be changing some plan or modified some thing.. I also think that Sara learn some moves from Sun, in which she can apply in the later part..
Â
And after “Sassy Schoolgirl” Sara Valentine win.. Sara Valentine will grab a pen and a spray paint and paint Xtina’s face.. HAHAHHAH..or maybe some cut the hair of Xtina Carpenter.. just like Piper and Brutus the Barber did to Adonis..  hahahah..
I’ll go for “Sassy Schoolgirl” Sara Valentine for the win…
M.G.C.: As always, your analysis is complete and indepth – I remember watching many matches where the first several moves were the collar and elbow tieup before the intessity of the match increased. But before you put your money on Sassy Sara, make sure you have not been swayed by her, um, school supplies…
Every time I see Triple S, I’m going to be thinking of the mauling she received by the Lil’ Dragon.
Thanks again, albone – nice action here.
Damn – forgot my spell check… <other whining deleted>
I love Carpenter’s costume… It’s like Home Depot girl meets foxy wrestler… So cute! The announcer guy may like the short schoolgirl skirts, but I’m totally digging on the Construction Corset.
Wow MGC, that was a mouthful! Â Glad you were able to get that off of your mind. XD Sara’s doing much better so far against Xtina than in her match with Sun, so she’s gotta be happy about that. Â Will Sara utilize any sort of humiliation if she were to win after the match? Â Maybe. Â I can tell you that Xtina probably wouldn’t though, she’s a better sport than that.Â
I was thinking that about Carpenter’s uniform as well. If this is the level where Sara feels comfortable, I don’t think either can get up to the level needed to walk away with the title.
There is a lot o grappling and floor work going on right now and while it may be quick it doesn’t look like it’ll open up any time soon.
Come on Sara! If someone has to job to Sabrina in the next round, I rather have more Sara! lol. Should be an interesting match. I’m foreseeing a missed A.S.S into a sharpshooter. Hope I’m wrong ;.; lol.
Another action packed episode…Â with the usual fast paced rapid advantage turnarounds.
Sara flashes her thigh and gets an approving whoop from the fans, or at least the ones that think like Jeff. I imagine her stage persona is enhanced by doing that.
Xtina has the fans’ approval in the last panel… I suppose they get more excited by that move than by Sara’s headlock.
Xtina’s outfit is purple and orange… this makes me think of the classic Battlestar Galactica pilot movie back in ’77 where Starbuck and Apollo trick the Cylons: Starbuck pretends to be Purple and Orange squadrons ( among others ). I don’t know if that was the intent but it is what came to my mind!! There was a time at work where I saw a whiteboard marker; one end had purple and the other orange… it turned out to be empty and the guy was gonna throw it away so I asked if I could have it… and I still do!
I guess I take wierd side trips down memory lane…
Hey Prestwick, right you are, plenty of mat work going on. Â Both ladies are trying hard to secure control. Â Sara’s not taking this match lightly, so an opening probably won’t happen any time soon, like you predict. Â We’ll know more on Friday!
