#project 20

Here are more images and interview quotes from my July 2nd, 2006 gallery that described Tom Zenk's reasons for quitting the WWF in 1987, along with some of my old screen-grabs of his abuse by the masked Shadows during their 1987 tag team match.

The interview was conducted by an obsessed wrestling fan who had created a very comprehensive Tom Zenk tribute website: TomZenk.com (now available at TomZenk.net). This dude is totally obsessed with Tom Zenk's wrestling career and hotness. Get a life, buddy -- it's just fake fighting by dudes rolling around in their underwear!

At TomZenk.net, you can track Zenk's entire career path across multiple federations, match history, articles, interviews, video links -- and best of all, view many, many great photos of this legendary Babyface. (And I thought I had the biggest boner for Tom Zenk -- this dude's tribute site is a total Labor of Lust!) Of course, you can also find the long interview where Zenk describes his distrust of Rick Martel and feelings of being under-paid and under-appreciated.

So let's do the math. The Can-Am Connection formed 40 years ago in 1986 (to my horny teen-aged delight.) I blogged about their break-up 20 years later in 2006. And now, here I am 20 years after that, beyond middle age, revisiting this hot team! Hopefully by 2046, I will be able to generate a Virtual Reality hologram so I can rassle around with 1986 Zenk and Martel (which might cause me a massive heart attack and end me, but at least I will die happy!)

I recall being awed by Dean Malenko for his confidence, wrestling prowess, and all-around Bad Ass attitude. He bent and broke many opponents using his infamous Texas Cloverleaf (which never failed to fire me up!)

20 years ago, I blogged about Malenko's series of intense matches with the great Eddie Guerrero. Given his pedigree, Eddie seemed to be the only opponent strong enough and talented enough to put the Ice Man through his paces.

Here are some Surfboard images from my 2006 gallery:

I must have decided to try something creative on my website 20 years ago: little speech balloons depicting what they might be saying as they perform these gorgeous Sleeper Holds. I do enjoy a side of trash-talk with my pro wrestling! Pretty sexy little comments if I do say so myself!

It was 20 years ago today (on 8/7/2005) that I posted photos of Brad Rochelle being dominated by a masked man known as The Enforcer on my old website. Today's still images and their captions are pasted directly from that gallery.

You can find many more such images in my original posting, which I wrote as a tutorial on how to dominate and control other men, from the perspective of the indomitable Enforcer. (Check it out if you want to brush up on your Heel tactics.)

I've decided to revisit and update this Master Class in domination with some animated GIFs. The source video, called "That $#@! Contract #4," is part of BG East's "Contract" series, in which Brad Rochelle was forced to endure a series of painful jobber sessions pursuant to a one-sided agreement he had been forced to sign. Check out my post from yesterday for the backstory.

When we last saw poor Brad, he was out cold and tied in the ropes following a double-teaming by Kid Leopard and Aryx Quinn...

The next morning, the masked Enforcer is turned loose on our exhausted and weakened wrestle-slave. This touches on a common fantasy of having, at one's disposal, a wrestling boytoy whom one could unchain, drag to a private ring, and grapple with whenever the mood strikes, then place back in captivity until the next time. (Not sure how common this fantasy was -- maybe I was the only truly sick pervert who craved my own personal wrestle-slave!)

By the way, the two-page description of this match on the BG East website is also very well-written and stimulating if you're into slash fic. BG East was really serving up some excellent classic pro-style content (with great story-telling, and the obligatory wrestleporn twists of course) during this era!

Yes of course I had a crush on young Ricky Rice, a ridiculously handsome wrestler who enjoyed a brief push in the late 80s (about as brief as his skimpy trunks!)

Twenty years ago, I posted some screenshots from his 1988 match against bad boy Pistol Pete, noting the frequent close-ups on his ass, which certainly got my attention.

I even thought his name was adorable: "Ricky Rice." I wanted to write it all over my school notebooks and draw hearts around it.

20 years ago today, I posted a gallery of images depicting my favorite pro wrestling scenario: two villains attacking one hero. These particular models were dressed as super-heroes instead of wrestlers, but I included a few photos of the Yellow Twins dominating an attractive victim in red. Their spandex costumes and dominating poses really turned me on because it resembled tag team wrestling.

To revisit my old gallery, I decided to try and find this old video and create some animations of their 2-on-1 assaults. The site identified in the first photo above -- HardHeroes.com -- still exists but it seems to be defunct for purchases. So I found Can-Am's old Hard Heroes videos on their DownloadMegaMall site (which is apparently also scheduled to be shut down soon, but the date keeps being extended.)

After some searching, I was able to find and download this old video with Team Yellow owning the red-suited victim. It's called "Hard Heroes Vol. 12: The Hand Returns."

Then I made some animated GIFs as I planned, see below. The two-against-one scene only lasts about 3 minutes (from 15:10 to 18:35), with the remainder of the half-hour video featuring kinky bondage scenes where the three captured heroes are stripped naked and tortured, then made to whack off. I actually enjoyed the brief 2-on-1 fight scene more than all of that.

As noted above, their actions sure look like the double-teaming and corner abuse I so enjoy in tag team wrestling. You can see it's mostly punches, knees, and kicks to his stomach, so if that's your kink, definitely check this one out while it's still available.

By the way, in my 2006 gallery, I incorrectly identified the stud in red as the villain. Now that I've seen the video, I know that Sonic (portrayed by Bret Taylor) was actually trying to rescue his two friends (Hawk and Burst) from the villainous "Hand," who had brainwashed them into turning against their former friend. That's hot! We need more brainwashing betrayal scenes in pro wrestling.

Here is a brief video clip of Eddie Guerrero working over Dean Malenko's back -- first with a Surfboard, then a gorgeous Tilt-A-Whirl Backbreaker, then back into the punishing Surfboard. We get some close-ups of the handsome stud's O-face.

It was 20 years ago today when I posted these images of the amazing Kid Leopard torturing Cliff Conlin in a prolonged Indian Deathlock. I was really into leglocks at the time. Check out that old gallery if you want to see more images of this particular submission hold.

I actually have this video in my archives. (It's a great match -- Conlin makes the Boss suffer quite a bit, which really gets to me because Kid Leopard is usually 100% dominant!)

So I decided to rewatch this vintage wrestleporn to create some Animated GIFs that depict Leopard's thrusting and grinding motions and Conlin's dramatic selling.

These early BG East videos, when the Boss still put on the trunks and boots, were just so hot -- so realistic, not all silly and playful (as we're seeing in some recent Underground Wrestling content.) Kid Leopard was just so sadistic and merciless once he gained control, and he took the authentic portrayal of classic pro wrestling very seriously.

Oh Mr. Leopard - when you plant your boot on his chest to press his body flat, I just lose it. I believe this was the only BG East match that Conlin ever filmed. I suppose this Deathlock by Kid Leopard was just too much for him.
