Who Plays Godzilla?







Rob Terry against Bobby Lashley.  This match took place over a year ago at a Family Wrestling Entertainment event.  I can't believe it took me so long to talk about it, especially because there's so much for me to say (none of it intelligent, of course).  The amount of muscle in that ring likely exceeds the government's recommended daily allowance.  And consider Bobby Lashley in this situation.  At 6' 2" and 245 pounds, he's a goliath, but in this match he looks like a mere play thing to the 6' 5" 305 pound Rob Terry.  I find it a little ironic this takes place for a promotion called Family Wrestling Entertainment.  Watching two nearly naked muscle studs, glistening with sweat, beating the shit out of each other is now considered family entertainment?  I suspect a lot of guys watching this match were entertaining some very un-"family values" thoughts.  In this picture sequence Rob Terry manhandles Bobby Lashley and takes him down for a powerslam.  The impact must have registered on a Richter scale somewhere.  These two behemeths in the ring together has the makings of a low budget B-movie.  Two muscle monsters fighting it out in a big urban area, knocking down buildings and crushing underfoot a frightened and fleeing populace.  Tokyo, this isn't going to end well for you.
