So let's begin: 

+1: Reid Hawthorne is the man.  There is no doubt about it this deserves a point.  Watching that strong, hairy, lanky body trash his opponent is a dream.  Watching said opponent take it with barely enough strength to fight back is why gay wrestling is the king of porn.  

+1: For the sweaty worship. You can tell that Santiago can't handle this.  This being Reid's sweaty hairy chest, his pits, or his arms.  Reid makes the big submit to the very arms that put him down.  Hell that deserves a bonus point for how eager Santiago goes at it [+1].

+1: For how easily Reid turns Santiago into a whimpering mess.  Enter one muscle stud named Santiago and then later said muscle stud is left a groveling mess.  Reid may be outmuscled but he more than makes up for it and overwhelms his opponent.  

Santiago: You think you can take this?! Reid: [smirk]

Reid: Not much left? Too fucking weak? 

+1: For the ab abuse.  Reid goes all out abusing his muscular opponent but he saves just enough aggression (jealousy?) for those abs.  

+1: For the give and take.  This match gives you just enough hope to believe that Santiago could win.  That Reid could be dethroned.  Anything could happen in gay wrestling and while squash jobs are fine, I need to see our heel punish as well as suffer.  

+1: For how thoroughly dominated and humiliated Santiago is in this match.  This match brings together everything great about gay wrestling - the domination, the submission, the humiliation.  All of these ingredients comes together to form the perfect experience of one man's agony and another's ecstasy.  

Hand over the mouth while you grab their crotch! 

That look of pure submission. That you could never match your opponent.

Everything Great About this Match: +7

So there you have it.  I'm ashamed to say that I've stepped away from gay wrestling lately but now I'm back for a bit.  Reid makes the action real and Santiago is the eager jobber awaiting his beating. If you ever have that fantasy of a david-goliath, smaller wrestler beats down a behemoth, or if you simply can't stop watching Reid Hawthorne in all his forms - then this match is for you.  \

What turned me gay (not really) ...  This post, inspired by the sidelineland.com blog, takes a tongue and cheek look into "what made me gay (not really)" and my journey of discovery really went into overdrive with one man: Mr. Troy Baker.

The Background I uncovered Bgeast at a pivotal point in my life. I was just coming into my own as a gay man and the company made a lot of things clearer for me. Epiphany isn't the right word here but it's sure damn near close. To quote the great Shane McCall in an interview:

Shane McCall: ...[Gay Wrestling] validated us in being who we are.  They didn't feel weird.  They didn't feel like a misfit or out of a community. 

But I digress and my gay wrestling revelation would not be complete without the angelic Troy Baker.

Not only was he the star of the first Bgeast match I purchased, he was someone that solidified by interest in gay wrestling. In fact here's the man himself getting schooled by Shane McCall in a stand out match - Jobberpoloozer 4.

I mean they simply do not make wrestling matches like this anymore ...

Surprisingly, Troy wasn't my first Bgeast crush. In fact, the first wrestler that actually caught my eye was Brigham Bill - there was just something about him straddling Dino Sierra in that image that took hold of me and didn't let go.

So now with both my first infatuation, Brigham, facing off against Troy - it was something I couldn't miss.

Brigham (like all heels!) simply could not keep his fists off of Troys abs.

And more ab abuse ...

Yes other wrestlers caught my eye over the years: Flyboy, Kenny Star, Mason Brooks, Nathan Sargent. But none of them had anything on Troy "Heel bait" Baker, the man was the beginning and the end of gay wrestling as far as I was concerned.

Troy was beautiful, sure. Gorgeous, even. But the internet is an endless supply of handsome men, so that wasn’t the hook.

No, Troy was special because he was that somehow contradicting combination of fragility and toughness.

Troy will forever be etched into my mind for that reason alone. Watching a Troy Baker match felt like seeing something exquisite get shattered into pieces, then somehow, impossibly, forged back into one whole thing again. And definitely something that turned me gay.

The Backstory

We open on Mark, stretching that taught body and showing off that handsome face of his.  The man is beautiful and as one of the early Bgeast matches I managed to view, this bout brings back memories just watching it now.  

Within in seconds, I think we can all guess where this match is headed.  Gorgeous Mark is not your typical wrestler build and going up against the meanest Bgeast wrestler out there, you don't have to be psychic to know what happens next.  

BBW with his trademark break the 4th wall and speak to the camera.

Mark might tower over his opponent in height but the man isn't in the same league as BBW.

The Action

Following a very brief assault by Mark, it's 100% BBW in control of this match.  Almost immediately our heel unleashes a devastating beatdown on the ring post leaving our sexy, strapping Mark completely at his mercy.  

That long lean body looks incredibly vulnerable on the ring post.  

Mark is left exposed and completely at the mercy of BBW

From here on out things only get worse for Mark.  The man suffers exquisitely, and all those moans and cries are like catnip for our heel.  Each whimper, every scream, only seems to energize BBW.  

BBW straddling Mark and having some fun. 

Mark: *Muffle* No, no...

Our First Moment 

You have to hand it to BBW.  If you think smothering your opponent with your speedo was the worst things could get, then think again because the heel manages to one-up even himself. 

That sinister grin, the agony from our jobber.  This is why BBW is king! 

Mark barely gets to catch is breath before ... 

BBW comes back to further humiliate an already trashed Mark

Was this ever a "hunt"?  Well I'd say no, at least not a sportsmanlike hunt.  No, Mark Hunter never stood a chance against an apex predator like like BBW.  The man was broken down physically, emotionally, and humiliated like a gay wrestling toy built for BBW's amusement.

Ladies and gentlemen, it all leads up to this moment.  Our heel can no longer control himself and he begins to take what he wants. 

BBW getting his jobber ready for his own enjoyment.  This is BBW's moment.

Handcuffed in the corner, BBW thinks he can play with Mark as he sees fit. 

BBW gets so distracted with Mark that he misses Clint entering the ring.  Big mistake by our heel, letting his lust take over and letting his guard down.

In the end, BBW was so hungry for Mark that he let Clint get the better of him.  It's heel on heel, with mean BBW looking vulnerable for once in his life.  

So let's begin:  +1: The setup.  Our match opens with a rivalry between America and Canada, experience (Jobe) versus Youth (Bobby), Heel versus Hero.  I love that gay wrestling opens up with these stakes - it's not just a romp on the wrestling mats but a point of pride and the consequences are definitely real.  

+1: Further underlining our stakes - Jobe makes everything personal.  He makes it clear from the start that you won't just lose to him but you will be crushed, and crushed hard.  You won't just submit, you will be broken.  Hell this deserves a bonus point [+1] for how much these two commit to the performance and how complete our hero's destruction feels. 

Jobe takes us there.  Takes our hero to the edge of defeat. 

Bobby struggles to open his eyes and wearily re-examines his life choices. 

Ripping that mask off of Bobby is further humiliation. 

And still more humiliation ..

This isn't pro wrestling but you are being destroyed professionally.

+1: Our guys get sweaty.  Proof that wrestling is real. Jobe and Bobby get each other hot and bothered.  Muscles strained, sweat glistening and accentuating each and every move.  These guys work hard and working each other over is hard work!

+1: For the defeat.  I mean can you top that defeated look on Bobby's face. The man is completely spent and subdued by Jobe's comically terrible villainy.  Bobby knows how to job and Jobe knows how to crush it in the crushing jobber department.  

Jobe goes from gently mussing up Bobby's hair ...

.. to conquest. 

+1: A point for this move. Helplessly hung out on the ropes, Bobby is vulnerable and completely at the mercy of Jobe.  Jobe by the way, simply shows no mercy.  There's just something extra to the move that goes beyond just being tied up in the ropes.  Bobby is hung out to dry and crucified in a way only gay wrestling can provide.  

+1: For the payback.  Bobby's not just going to lay there and take it.  He tried the honorable way, to fight with integrity ... but that just won't work with a supervillain like Jobe.  No, Bobby needs to fight dirt with dirt and boy does our man get dirty.  Laying into Jobe not once but multiple times into his crotch.  

You don't mess with another wrestler's gimmick and get away with it. 

Our comeback is almost complete and Bobby knows it. 

+1: For the triumph.  Sure Bobby could win right now but he needs to show our villain that there are consequences to evil and sure it's fun too.  He not only destroys Jobe's weakness but destroys it hard and with a brutality heroes aren't supposed to show.  Part of the fun here is seeing our hero pushed beyond decency and embrace his own inner heel.

Bobby doesn't need a win anymore, he needs to embrace his inner heel.

------- Everything Great About this Match: +8

So there you have it.  If Bobby and Jobe aren't on your radar, well you better get with it cause these two in their prime were a sight to see.  Bobby looks incredible whether he's suffering at the hands of the over-the-top heel or dominating in his own right.  Jobe is a real life super villain in the way he completely owns and debases our poor hero.   I'm always trying to figure out why I love gay wrestling, it is the point of this blog after all, and I can't deny myself that this match has it all.  Heartbreak, Redemption, Triumph.  Gay wrestling goes above and beyond typical pornography and matches like this showcase why it's just so great.  

So let's begin:  +1: I love how full of himself Reid can be.  That sexy lean body could go heel, could go jobber, it all depends on how he's feeling that day but above all the man knows he's hot.  It's no secret that Reid/Rudd is an instant buy for me and it's attitude like this that seals the deal for me. 

+1: A point for jobber Reid.  I drooled a little seeing jobber Reid stretched out.  Those abs, that hairy chest, that amazing body stretched out and at the mercy of Ricky.  Some wrestlers only know how to do one thing but not Reid, the man can sell the punishment with the best of them.  

+1: Speaking of selling it.  Let's talk about the audio here, now some wrestlers neglect parts of their performance but it really takes the whole package - the visual combined with the moans, groans, and the little noises that sells the pain.  Reid makes you feel every stomp and every smack on your laptop.  Having Reid job for you is a masterclass in ASMR.  

+1: A point for Reid in heel mode.  Then suddenly, Reid turns the tables and he's back on top.  You gotta love how comfortable the man is as both heel and jobber.  The man is a natural, equally skilled in both the fine art of taking and dishing out punishment.  

Reid: The right heel, back on top... Yeah! 

+1: Finally, Ricky deserves a point for slowly draining Reid of all that heel energy and showing him, that he's the dirtiest fighter between the two of them.  I mean just listen to that bearhug - Reid is completely drained and left at the mercy of Ricky! This has got to be slowest, sexiest, most draining bearhug I've seen awhile - bonus point for this [+1].  

Reid's pathetic whimpering almost deserves a point on to itself! 

I can feel my own ribs being squeezed by proxy and love how cocky Reid is put in his place.  This angle especially, not one we normally see in the ring, emphasizes just how spent Reid is. 

------- Everything Great About this Match: +6

So there you have it. This is a knockdown drag out between who could fight the nastiest.  Reid is just too cocky for his own good and Ricky shows how to bring the man down by humiliating him with low blow after low blow until the end where the loser simply cannot go on.  You could turn your laptop screen off and simply listen to how hot this match is and get by with the audio alone.  Listen as the fight is slowly drained from Reid and the once proud man is left a quivering mess.

The Backstory Enter Carter Alexander. The man gets an A for Alexander and an A for Abs. The man is built like an action figure I used to play with.

The Action

What's the story? Kayden sees a hot hunky Carter and feels a urge to break that tall jock.  Carter looks like the kind of man's man that gets into bar fights and brags about his conquests to his bros.  Carter is all alpha in appearance and Kayden needs to make him weak. 

Carter: We're going to have a good clean fight right?

Kayden: Sure ... After a cheap shot to bring the jock down, we are immediately treated to the ab bash.  There are simply too many ab bashes to keep track of. 

The Moment 

So what makes this match more than just an S&M bash fest?  Sure there's more than enough pink and bruised abs to go around but like I've said countless times, Gay wrestling is simply so much more!    It's not only about pounding away at your opponent.  Kayden also has his fun.  Gay wrestling is not about hurting, well not only about the hurt.  It's about satisfying your heel.  

We start with a reverse bearhug.

Then the Ab claw.

Kayden looks mighty satisfied in both. Let's start with the innovation.  This move is new to me at least.  What's it's called?  The reverse ab-hug? Whatever it is, we need more.

It's all about the humbling of our hunk.  Witness Carter, intimidating as he is on the outside, reduced to a groveling jobber begging to end this match by the time this is all over.  

Kayden: Two words ... Carter: It hurts?!  Kayden: Wrong .... 

Next we have our handsome, hunky jock weak, tired, and helpless to Kayden's onslaught.  Kayden is not holding anything back and we can see the toll it's taking on Carter.  The man is built like steel but even steel has its limits.  

And lastly, good matches need good endings.  Kayden ends the ab abuse only when he's good and ready.  Carter submitted a thousand times over and is clearly no match for him but his heel ends things simply when he's good and done playing with his toy.  

Carter: *groan* *groan* Kayden: Now I say you're done. 

So let's begin: 

+1: For the Kayden-Christian pairing.  I love it when two of the men I obsess over get together and make gay wrestling magic happen.  Is this a throw back? Maybe, but I'd like to think that somewhere out there is a young gay man "discovering" this match and sparking within him a love of gay wrestling.  If that's you out there then I envy the journey you're about to take!

Christian: Am I supposed to be intimidated by this? Kayden: You will be ...

+1: For Christian.  I've been a fan of the man since he started and this version is probably the hottest.  The man is upgrading hard to "Twunk" mode and it shows.  Those arms, that chest, those abs ... I'm not the only one that wants those, just check out the expression Kayden has in each scene; he's a fan too!  

Christian Upright

Christian on his back. 

+1: I love a ring match.  Full stop.  And as Kayden rightly points out, Christian has few of those lying around so to see our twunk in a ring/mat encounter is definitely worth a point.  There's just something sacred about the gay wrestling ring with two men using all parts of that space to grind down the other man.  

Christian: Welcome to the mat!

+1: For all the ab bashing. Those long, ripped abs are repeatedly destroyed.  You really can't blame anyone I mean, they make a beautiful tempting target just begging to be tested.  Surely something so perfect needs to be broken. 

+1: For the pec claws.  Kayden is taking those pecs for a test drive here.  This Twunk, buff, sinewy version of Christian is reduced to a groveling twink after Kayden has his way.  

+1: For Kayden tearing Christian to shreds.  Like all artists, the man loves what he does and you can sense the passion in his work.  Kayden uses every dirty trick to work Christian's strapping body from all angles revealing the sounds of groans, pink abused muscle, and the light tap of submissions to highlight his work.  This brings us to another lesson today - Heels don't need to cheat.  They cheat because they can.  

Heels cheat because they can.

+1:  The sexy signature move - Christian "The Kiss" Taylor.  As I mentioned earlier, Christian knows how to use that kiss to his advantage.  He may not be the biggest, baddest, wrestler out there but the man's kiss sure is powerful.  He's taken down heels with that lip lock before and even Kayden isn't immune to this.  

But wait there's more... this deserves a bonus point [+1] for turning the man's sexy signature move against him. Kayden is tempted but not swayed with lust, the guy's a true gay wrestling professional after all.  He's turned on but doesn't lose his head.  Can't say most of us would have that kind of will power.  

And there's still more ... You see if turning your opponent's signature move against him isn't sufficient to prove how much of heel you are, how about adding a muscle worship twist variation to this?  Definitely worth another bonus point [+1] for submitting your jobber with your bicep only to have him so turned on that he worships said muscles.  Kayden's manly musk is so over powering that Christian can't help but worship the superior man.  

------- Everything Great About this Match: +9

So there you have it.  I don't use this compliment lightly but this match embodies everything I LOVE about gay wrestling.  Now I'm sure we could all guess the outcome of this match from the start but the journey is what really sells this match.  From Kayden's brutal beating to the little noises Christian makes whenever he transitions from agony to ecstasy; Two physically matched studs enter the ring only for one to be utterly taken apart and left a sweaty, submissive mess.  In the end Christian was dominated and his opponent victoriously took what he wants.  

Kayden's devious grin says it all.  I. own. my. opponent. You see a victory isn't simply settled with a "pin" in this sport. No, the pin is just the beginning. A win in this sport is when you own the other man both physically and emotionally, and that my friends is the true heart of gay wrestling.
