Inverted

Here's something worth trying depending on how strong you are, the size of the other guy, etc. After you scoop your opponent up, hold him upside down and walk around with him. As the blood rushes to his head, be sure to squeeze him hard and pull his body in tightly against yours. If you're lucky, he'll kick his legs in a useless defensive effort. God, I love the feeling of being in total control!

Back Punishment

The bodyslam is all about back punishment. You pick a dude up, lift him high, then slam him hard to the ground on his back. But there are other ways to get at the back. One way is the OTK backbreaker, which I had an earlier post about. Another way is to drive your opponent's back into a metal pole. I had the misfortune last year of wrestling around with a bigger guy (OK, not misfortune, because the guy was pretty jacked). At one point when we were messing around, he scooped me up and rammed my back into a metal pole that was in the basement we were wrestling in. It's humiliating enough as it is to have another guy carrying you around with his arm in your crotch. Having him crush your back into a metal pole just adds to the humiliation. Now to be honest, I asked him to bodyslam me, and it was a lot of fun, but I wasn't expecting the added punishiment of him repeatedly pressing my back up against the pole.

Teen Muscle Flex

Terry is a 17 year old bodybuilder in England who, like many other young muscle guys, has turned to You Tube and the Internet to put on shows of strength in order to raise money to support their bodybuilding careers. His You Tube name is Teen Muscle Flex, and you can find several short clips from his videos. Sometimes, he even likes to press other guys over his head. And I thought my muscles were big when I was 17 . . .

Aryx Quinn

Sorry for the long time since a post, but here are a couple of good photos of Aryx Quinn in action. He's one of my favorite wrestlers. He has spent most of his time with BGEast, but he has wrestled for other companies, too. He looks like he is putting on more muscle, and he shows it off with some power moves like we see above. He also goes by the name of Tristan Baldwin, and you can check his website out here.

Kirk White

Kirk White is a NCAA wrestling champion and freestyle wrestler. Here he executes a brutal powerslam on his opponent during a freestyle tournament. There's even a video of it. It's a rare but awesome pro-style bodyslam in amateur wrestling.
