Review: The Enforcer vs. Marauder (BGEast)

So when I was trying to think about what to review this week, I was stumped. I did just finish a good match from Heel Bash 1, but it's been talked about elsewhere and I didn't have anything to add.

That match did get me thinking about how much I like heel vs. heel action. I originally thought it was rare, but then I realized that's it's actually not that unusual to have two guys who act like heels wrestling each other. It's seems like it's actually the default persona for a lot of guys nowadays.

What is kind of unique is to have two established guys with full-on, undefeated tough guy reputations face off. Chet and his opponent are rookies, so having one lose isn't that big a deal. But having an established heel lose, in character, to another heel is a big deal. I say "in character" because there are heels like Jonny Firestorm who often morph to their role.

A good example is Joe Mazetti at BGEast, who has faced guys like Aryx Quinn, Bulldog Barzini and Cole Cassidy. All of them are well-established heels with dominant records for whom losing would be rare (except for Aryx, who loses a lot). Or when Alex, Dash or Ethan Andrews face off in Rock Hard Wrestling.

One of these matches that I liked was in Masked Mayhem 7. It featured The Enforcer against Marauder, both big men who’d established undefeated records by the time they faced each other (4-0 and 3-0 in their prior matches). They had dominated their matches, destroying their opponents.

The Enforcer was more the draw for me. Not just because I own the exact same mask, but he's hot and a great heel. I first saw him silently destroy Brad Rochelle in That $#@&!! Contract 4. He broke the uber-star down body part by body part, methodically working while Brad begged to know why he was doing it. It was an incredible performance, if you like one-sided squashes. If Brad had one offensive move, I cannot remember it.

I also like masked men, especially when the loser is unmasked, as happens in this match. And, while not a fetish of mine in particular, this match paired up a clothed guy against a hot, hard body in a skimpy bikini.

They start battling at the 2-minute mark then it’s pretty much non-stop for the next 33 minutes. Both guys get punished, but I feel like The Enforcer suffers more than Marauder, which suits me just fine. The unmasking happens during a camel clutch near the very end, after which the unmasked loser is dragged up by his hair, racked then humiliated a bit more before the winner leaves.

All in all, it was a pretty hot setup and the match delivered. Now, I didn’t know who would win, so I’ll try not to spoil it by including the unmasking or any post-unmasking moves.

Does The Enforcer win and keep his mask?

Or does Marauder walk out victorious?

So, have you seen this match? What did you think? Would you recommend it?

And what do you think about these reviews of old matches? Should I stick with being more timely content? I can't work as fast as some other guys, but I could stick to videos produced within the past 6 months, for example.
