Sacrificed to the Muscle God

Whenever I hear or read the words "over the knee", my pulse quickens.  The OTK backbreaker is one of the hottest wrestling moves of all times, especially when performed by a muscular heel.  He scoops you up high into the air and carries you around.  You prepare yourself for a bodyslam, thinking at least it will be over quickly.  But no!  The heel drops you down and cracks your back over his knee.  Fuck!  You cry out in pain from the impact, but it's not over.  The pain ratches up as the hardbody hunk bends your back over his knee, bending it in a way nature never intended.  Through gritted teeth, you moan loudly, but there's nothing you can do but endure the agony.  You're nothing but the muscleboy's bitch as long as he decides to hold you there.

The move is especially effective when the heel continues to hold the victim with his arm through the crotch, like Scrappy does above.  It's bad enough to have your body helplessly splayed out over the knee, but feeling the heel's arm between your legs and his hand grabbing your butt just increases the humiliation tenfold.  Plus, you're worried he's going to pick you up again, then drop you down over the knee for another backbreaker.  If he's a really bad-ass muscleboy, that's exactly what he does.

In the end, you are completely at the heel's mercy.  Your body is laid out as if across an altar, offered up as a human sacrifice to the muscle god who put you there.  You lose the will to fight, so you finally submit.  That's why the over the knee backbreaker is one of my favorite wrestling submission holds.

Sacrificing another jobber to the muscle god!

Is Wrestling My Porn?

Someone once joked that if you run out of gay porn, just watch wrestling because it's basically the same thing.  I responded with a polite chuckle, but after thinking about it, I began to wonder if wrestling is my porn.  Porn itself just isn't my thing, gay or straight.  It's rare that I ever watch it.  But wrestling, on the other hand, is a different matter.  There are some days where I waste hours on the computer searching for and watching wrestling videos and downloading pictures.  I love wrestling for the sport, and I also love it for the masculinity of it.  So yeah, I have to admit that sometimes it does get me "going" a bit, if you know what I mean.

But does wrestling rise to the level of porn?  If so, I guess that's why some gay porn stars also do wrestling videos.  I'm aware that a few guys I blog about (probably a lot more) are also active in the adult film industry.  I'm not that clued in to the industry to know its stars, but at least I'm clued in enough to know that Topher Dimaggio is one of the better known names out there.  So, it's really no surprise he does wrestling videos, too, including a recent match at Wrestler4Hire that I feature here.

Topher finds himself in the ring wrestling big boy Joey Nux.  And seriously, Joey is a very big boy.  And absolutely shredded, too.  The dude just exudes strength and power.  Topher really doesn't stand a chance.  I liked watching this match very much.  I enjoyed the muscles, the sweat, the athleticism.  These are the very things that draw me to wrestling.  Plus it's no secret that I love lift and carry power moves in wrestling, and Joey absolutely delivers as he bodyslams, racks, backbreaks, and piledrives Topher throughout this match.  And Topher does his job well, too, enduring the punishment and suffering like a jobber boy is supposed to suffer at the hands of a muscular heel.  I still don't have any real interest seeing Topher performing in adult films, but I defintely want to see a lot more of him in the wrestling ring.

Hmm, watching Joey piledrive Topher over and over . . . 
Maybe wrestling really is my porn!
