I know it has been many months since my last post. I guess over the past year I have found less and less time to spend on this blog, and to be honest, it's probably pretty much run its course. How much more can you say about a bodyslam anyway? Luckily, while I may be running out of words to say, wrestling productions are still turning out products that continue to inspire, and every once in a while I come across some things that are worth saying a few words about. If you have followed this blog, it's no secret that I like OTK backbreakers, so you can figure out why these pictures appeal to me. The first two action photos come from a match at Thunders Arena featuring Brad Barnes against Tak. I've seen the whole match and found it well worth the price of admission. The backbreaker Barnes gives Tak is probably one of the best I have seen. It actually begins with Barnes flat on his back and Tak on top of him. Barnes takes a hold of Tak and somehow works his way to his feet, taking Tak up with him. It's a testament to the strength and power of the bodybuilder wrestler. But the best is yet to come when Barnes drops Tak over his knee and holds him there for almost minute. Tak squirms and cries out in agony, but he just can't break free of Barnes' powerful arms. It's pretty impressive. The next photos come from a match at No Rules Wrestling between Dave Calbrese and Lorenzo Smalls. I haven't seen the entire match, but from the preview, it looks like Calbrese gets in some good power moves, including this sick OTK backbreaker.
Aside from the crotchlifts and backbreakers, it's the specific pairing of wrestlers in these two matches that leads to good quality action (at least in my opinion). I have always liked a wrestling contest where a muscular wrestler dominates a slightly smaller opponent. Maybe it's because I was a wrestler back in school, so I like to see the muscle guy win. In his match against Tak, Brad Barnes does a lot of showing off and flexing of muscles, and then he puts those muscles to good use with his awesome backbreaker. Dave Calbrese's muscularity is readily evident in the third photo, especially compared to the much leaner Lorenzo, who fruitlessly struggles in Calbrese's powerful arms. All in all, both matches present a great combination of muscles, lean bodies, and power moves.
Well, I hope you dudes enjoy these photos. Let's hope it won't be another six months before I make another post.
