*Smack the foe's face into a wall.
**If you have him by the head, there is no hit location penalty to smack it into the wall.
**If you have him by the torso, use the grappling hit location penalty for the head (-3), because you shove his body but want the face to impact.
So, if you take the penalty on the initial grapple, the smash part gets easier. If you take the easy initial grab, the smash gets harder.

And this is if you want the specific effects of hitting someone in the face; knock down and stunning roll, bypassing torso armour etc. If you do not want/need these results then you don't need to take the penalties at all. The attack can be described as hitting the head without actually doing it.
