Tag Team:
Bio: Katrina Tavarez and Samantha Roberts were indie wrestlers from two different worlds. Katrina wrestled to make money for her college tuition in order to become a graphics designer so she could work on the video games; another, even bigger passion of hers. When she wasn't working matches or cutting promos in a ring, Katrina spent her free time either keeping in shape for her second job (her first job was working as Assistant Manager at her local Game Stop), or she was in front of her TV with a controller in her hands.
This was how she met Sammi, another independent wrestler over in the United Kingdom who had just gotten started. Still living with her parents, Sammi was using her income to help support her family. Chatting it up over a session of Gears of War, the two girls sparked one of those instant online friendships that turned into the formation of their own clan: Skillz Vendorz. The name was a play off of guild that Katrina was an officer of in an MMO where the members used to troll other players. Consequently, Katrina and Sammi tended to enjoy mercilessly trolling the opposing team members.
Time went on and Sammi Roberts received, what she saw as, a possible big break in her wrestling career: a promotion owner from the United States had come across some YouTube videos that captured her work in the ring and wanted to sign her to his company; distance be damned. As it turned out, this promotion happened to be the San Antonio Wrestling Alliance (SAWA), a Texas based developmental territory for New Frontier Wrestling. As an even bigger coincidence: this same promotion had recently extended an offer to Katrina Tavarez. When the two online friends realized that they had the chance to actually work together, Katrina devised a plan and pitched the idea of she and Sammi Roberts working as a tag team. Sammi had potential but was still relatively green. As a tag unit, Katrina could help polish her younger friend's rough edges.
On October 7th, 2016, Katrina Tavarez and Samantha Roberts broke into SAWA as Katrina Cage and Sammi Belmont - the Skillz Vendorz, playing up their obsession with video games into their gimmick. Mixing Kat's well rounded technique with Sammi's high flying, they became an instant hit, known as fun loving pranksters who could more than hold their own in the ring. After two years of working the grind and earning their place among developmental, and with NFW looking to expand their Women's Tag Team Division, Kat and Sammi have received their call up, courtesy of Women's Division General Manager, Savannah Hayes. They made their debut together and soon became a trio, adding Mary Kennedy as a third member. There, they feuded with teams such as SBS and Bloody Fairytale (f.k.a Fire & Ice). They have since fallen to the back burner so to speak but are always looking to show their capability as they seek to expand their horizons.
Team Name: The Skillz Vendorz
Weight (Combined): 250lbs
Alignment (Face, Heel, Neutral): Face
Style of Wrestling: Katrina is the technical mixed with grounded/standing strikes. She likes to keep a moderate pace and maintain control of her opponent with grapples and tight holds. She's also got just enough power to pull off some of the more impressive suplexes and bomb maneuvers.
As the smaller one, Sammi likes to keep a fast pace and relies on a lot of fast strikes, chopping and kicking combinations. She likes to fly and will often use the ropes or turnbuckles to propel herself into the air to hit whatever aerial attack she can.
Together as a team, the girls have impeccable tag chemistry. They operate as a cohesive unit with short bursts of in-ring action and tags back and forth. With their tags they usually transition to the other member with a tandem, tag team move but never pull anything dirty. When wrestling together, Katrina will sometimes assist Sammi with her aerial maneuvers. (She'll let Sammi stand on her shoulders to get a bit higher for a moonsault or a 450 splash, or she'll come running straight at her partner and Katrina will pop her up over her head to the outside to come down on their opponents, etc.). They always talk strategy before they make their entrances so by the time they reach the ring, they've already decided which of them is going to start. They believe that this helps make them appear more formidable as they don't need to make any "last minute decisions."

Physical Description and Gimmick
Pic Base: Delmi Exo
Physical Description: Matching sports bra and tight shorts with transparent nylons over her legs. The shorts and bra are both black on one side while the other side is designed to look like a colored cyber grid with digital coding inside. The coloring of the grid changes and rarely is the same color ever done back to back on broadcasts. The grid pattern and solid black are separated by a jagged white line with a white controller design appearing on the black part of the shorts in the front with the cord running into the grid pattern. On her bra garment, the black has a white circle with the color grid pattern and her initials K.C in white. With this, she wears black boots with kickpads that stop beneath the knee. The kickpads are decorated with large lightning bolts going down the center, colored in with the same grid pattern on the rest of her outfit. Black fingerless gloves are worn over her hands.

Physical Description and Gimmick
Pic Base: Ashley Vox
Physical Description: Her attire always matches that of Katrina's with the exception of the colorful cyber grid pattern is on the opposite side on her outfit that Katrina's is and she has her own initials, SB, inside the circle on her bra top. The grid's color is also notable a shade or two darker than Katrina's. As her entrance attire, she wears various, off the shoulder, video game t-shirts along with backwards cap with varying video game logos and custom made flight goggles. There's also her jacket with built in lights to increase the cyber-gaming vibe of her entrance.

GAME START!
"KICKIN' IT OUT!!"
GAME START!
"KICKIN' IT OUT!!"
As the opening lyrics rip throughout the arena, a shot of DragonBall Z's Goku throws a Kamehameha at the viwers and the entryway lights up with multicolored lights and the video wall switches to a highlight reel that goes back and forth between clips of various video gameplay and anime footage. Everything from Mortal Kombat, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Skyrim, Mario, Golden Axe, Grand Theft Auto, Battletoads gameplay to action clips of DBZ, Elfen Lied, Ninja Scroll, Hellsing etc -- and then footage of Kat Cage and Sammi Belmont in previous matches hitting their big spots from their arsenals.
As this goes on, The Skillz Vendorz come running and jumping out from the curtain. More specifically, Katrina Cage runs out first, followed by Sammi Belmont. Katrina does a silly, playful bow to the audience and as she does, Sammi Belmont runs and leapfrogs over her. She lands and spins, full of energy, yelling to the crowd. Her and Kat come to stand side by side. They nod to each other with big smiles and mimic the DragonBall Fusion Dance pose. Multicolored pyro goes off on the stage and the two start down the ramp.

Your dream vacation
Small hostage refuge
A work in progress
You bleed just like you puke while running a mile
I beg to differ
Make me an offer
Warm summer rain

Kat Cage and Sammi Belmont come down the aisle, each taking a side where they happily high five and slap hands of fans in the front row. At the end of the ramp, they come together where Kat climbs up to the apron and gets into the ring. She climbs the turnbuckle as Sammi gets a running start along the side of the ring and athletically jumps up onto the apron to the parallel turnbuckle. Sammi grabs the ropes and hops over, skillfully landing on the middle turnbuckle where her and Kat repeat the Fusion Dance pose. As they do, spotlights shine down on them both.
Hey, are you okay?
You look pretty low
Very handsome awkward
Do you feel okay?
You look pretty low
Very handsome awkward
Both girls then climb down from the turnbuckles and meet in their corner, high fiving, fist bumping, dapping one another before removing their entrance gear and waiting for the match to start.
