Dante the Heel

It's no secret Dante is high up on my list of favorite wrestlers at Muscleboy Wrestling.  I've featured him several times in my blog already, so I'm surprised I haven't yet done a full post about his match against Ethan Slade from a couple years ago.  If I have a complaint about Dante's matches, it's that MBW usually features him as a jobber.  I want to see Dante be a heel, and that's why this match is so awesome.  Dante steps onto the mat at 180 pounds, while Ethan Slade is a mere 145.  This size difference allows Dante to display his heel side and destroy Ethan with a several bigboy wrestling moves.  This is the Dante I love best.

I wanna see Dante bodyslam the fuck out of more jobbers!

Ethan Slade

Not long ago I did a post about Dante from Muscleboy Wrestling and his match against Ethan Slade.  As I noted in that last post, a lot can be said about Slade, so now I'm ready to add a few of my own words to the conversation.  The dude is 5' 7" and 145 pounds, not very big size, but you can see he's pretty cut.  Slade must be a popular wrestler for Muscleboy because he already appears in seven videos.  It looks like he's pretty popular with the other wrestlers, too.  Given his size, it's fairly easy for some other strong wrestler to toss him around.  And what wrestler doesn't like that?  Unfortunately I haven't seen the full matchess that these shots come from, but by the looks of them, Slade takes a beating often, and he takes it well.

In my prior post I commented about how the action at Muscleboy often moves beyond mere wrestling and into other things.  I guess if I were Slade and I got grabbed, carried, and slammed over and over like this, I'd be in the mood for some extracurricular activity too.

Nice!  Take me out back when you're done with me boys!

Dante Is An Inferno

About a year ago a new internet wrestling company appeared on the scene called Muscleboy Wrestling.  More internet wrestling definitely is a good thing, but early on I shied away from Muscleboy.  They got some good looking wrestlers, and a lot of the match previews make it look like their wrestling is pretty entertaining.  But the action there often goes beyond just wrestling.  In many matches the activity progresses to, well . . .  let's just say to the kind of stuff that, when I was in high school, occurred more often outside behind the gym instead of inside on the wrestling mat.  Not that there's anything wrong with Muscleboy showing that kind of stuff.  Afterall, I heard someone once describe wrestling as gay porn with a little bit of clothing on.  But for my PG-13 oriented blog, it's just not the kind of stuff I usually feature.  Then recently I came across the promo for a match at Muscleboy featuring wrestlers Dante and Ethan Slade, making me re-think my considerations of Muscleboy.  While there's a lot that can be written about wrestler Slade, I want to focus on Dante here, who is bodyslamming Slade.  Dante sports an impressive 5' 10" and 180 pound body which is perfect for wrestling, so that catches the eye.  But mostly here I love this bodyslam.  I fucking love it.  I love how Dante grips Slade's body.  Check out the veins popping on his forearm!  It looks like Dante has such a tight, secure, nut crunching hold of Slade's body that Slade may need to see a fertility specialist if he experiences many more slams like this.  To belabor this fine point even further (and it's my blog, so I'm allowed to do so), I recall a couple of years ago in my judo class watching a black belt instruct some new guys on various judo pins.  When demonstrating the yoko-shiho-gatame hold (which for wrestlers is the same as the crotch half nelson pin combo), the black belt explained that you need to squeeze your opponent as tight as you can, as if he were an accordion.  Basically, he was telling the new guys you wanna crush the shit out of your opponent if you get him in this hold.  That's what Dante is doing here.  He's crushing the shit out of Ethan Slade.

For demonstrating such excellent technique for us, Dante is entitled to flex those double biceps over his emasculated opponent.  Afterall, this is Muscleboy Wrestling, and that's what muscleboys do.  Thanks for the demonstration Dante!
